Description

[Technical Field]

[0001] This invention relates to underwear (everyday underwear) that can be worn all year round, allowing you to stay comfortable even in sweaty environments and serving as cold weather clothing in cold environments such as winter or places with excessive air conditioning. [Background technology]

[0002] When people move their bodies, they sweat, and especially in the summer, sweating not only increases discomfort, but can also lead to catching a cold if left untreated, so it is important to wipe away sweat. Also, in winter or in places where the air conditioning is too strong, the body can get cold, making it easier to catch a cold and causing various health problems for people with chronic illnesses.

[0003] Currently, there are many sweat-absorbing undergarments on the market, but most of these garments are worn as underwear beforehand, so there is not much flexibility in their use. Furthermore, in recent years, clothing equipped with cooling mechanisms such as electric fans has become popular, but these cannot wipe away sweat and are insufficient to fundamentally solve the problem. Furthermore, these do not have the effect of winter clothing, and are not effective in cold environments. Furthermore, the technology of Patent Document 1 has been proposed as a type of vest that can be easily removed. [Patent Document 1] Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 2012-219394 DISCLOSURE OF THE INVENTION [Problem to be solved by the invention]

[0004] However, although the vest described in Patent Document 1 can provide a sweat-absorbing vest that can be easily removed even when wearing a jacket or other clothing, it is not capable of sufficiently wiping away sweat, and does not have any other functionality.

[0005] Therefore, the present inventors conducted extensive research to solve the above problems and developed the underwear of the present invention. The underwear of the present invention provides underwear that can quickly absorb sweat when sweating, is comfortable to wear, and also has the functionality of wiping sweat. It can also be used as cold weather underwear in winter or in places where the air conditioning is too strong, and it aims to protect against the cold when worn in cold environments. [Means for solving the problem]

[0006] It's underwear It consists of a main body, a ring, and a strap for attachment. The main body is rectangular, has a head-through hole, and has a front part and a rear part when attached with the head-through hole as a boundary, The rings are provided at four corners of the main body, The underwear is characterized in that a string for attachment is attached to the ring. [Effects of the Invention]

[0007] According to this invention, it is possible to provide underwear that can absorb sweat well, is comfortable to wear, and has the functionality of being easy to wipe off sweat.It can also be used as cold weather clothing in winter or in places where the air conditioning is too strong, and can be worn in cold environments to protect against the cold.

BEST MODE FOR CARRYING OUT THE INVENTION

[0009] Hereinafter, underwear according to an embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to FIGS.

[0010] 1 is a schematic diagram of an underwear 1 according to an embodiment of the present invention. The underwear 1 of this embodiment is composed of a ring 2, a wearing string 3, a head hole 4, and a main body 6.

[0011] The main body 6 is not particularly limited to any material as long as it is comfortable to wear, and ordinary fabrics, paper, etc. can be used. However, from the perspective of this embodiment of sweat-absorbing and cold-protective underwear, terry cloth is preferred as it best demonstrates the effects of the present invention. The shape of the main body is also not particularly limited, but it may be rectangular, as in the underwear 1 of this embodiment shown in FIG. 1, or shapes such as a diamond or trapezoid can also be used. Of these, a rectangular shape is preferable in terms of wearability and sweat-absorbing performance. The shape does not need to be an exact rectangle, and deviations during the manufacturing process are acceptable.

[0012] The main body 6 has a head hole 4 through which the head is passed when worn. The shape of the head hole 4 is not particularly limited, but a triangular shape with the apex of the triangle pointing toward the front is preferred, as openings at the front, similar to those found in general underwear, are more comfortable to wear. The location of the head hole 4 is not particularly limited, and it may be located at the intersection of the short sides of the rectangle and the approximate center of the short sides. However, as in this embodiment, it is preferred that the head hole 4 be located approximately near the center of the short sides of the rectangle, and closer to the front side in the longitudinal direction (see FIG. 1 ). By locating the head hole 4 on the front side in the longitudinal direction, the front portion 7 of the underwear 1 is shorter in the longitudinal direction than the back portion 8, as shown in FIG. 4 , allowing the underwear 1 to be worn comfortably without the front portion getting in the way.

[0013] Fig. 2 is a schematic diagram showing the underwear 1 of this embodiment worn by a person. Fig. 2(a) is a front view of the underwear worn, and Fig. 2(b) is a back view of the underwear worn. As shown in Fig. 2, the underwear 1 can be put on simply by putting it over the head and passing the head through the head hole 4. While it is possible to leave the underwear 1 in this state and complete the putting on, if left in this state the front part 7 and back part 8 will move freely, so the ring 2 and wearing string 3 are used to secure the underwear in place.

[0014] The ring 2 is used to attach the attachment string 3 to the main body 6. The shape of the ring 2 is not particularly limited as long as it is a hollow circular or oval ring (including irregular shapes). The ring may be integrally formed or may have a notch or other notch. The ring 2 may be made of iron or a string formed into a loop. However, considering flexibility and wearability, a string formed into a loop is preferred. The ring 2 is attached to the main body 6 by drilling holes at the four corners of the main body 6 large enough for the ring 2 to pass through, and then threading the ring 2 through the holes. However, this method is not particularly limited, and the ring 2 can also be sewn to the main body 6 with thread. In this embodiment, four rings 2 are attached to the main body 6, but this is not particularly limited. It is sufficient to provide at least one ring on the rear surface, and the number of rings can be selected based on the user's preference. Considering overall wearability and comfort, it is preferable to provide two rings on the rear surface.

[0015] The attachment string 3 is used to secure the front part 7 and the back part 8 so that they do not slip when the underwear 1 is worn. The attachment string 3 can be made of any material as long as it is string-shaped. It does not have to be a so-called string, and any long, thin shape can be used, and for the sake of convenience, this type of shape will be referred to as an attachment string in this invention.

[0016] The method of attaching the ring 2 and the attachment string 3 is not particularly limited, but tying the attachment string 3 to the ring 2 is easier and more secure. Alternatively, they can be attached using an adhesive or the ring 2 and the attachment string 3 can be sewn together with a separate thread.

[0017] As shown in Figure 2, the attachment string 3 is fixed by tucking the lower end of the attachment string 3 into trousers, a skirt, etc. Using the attachment string 3 in this manner is effective in improving the fit of the underwear 1.

[0018] In this embodiment, an example using a ring 2 is shown, but the ring 2 is not necessarily required for the underwear 1 of the present invention, and it is also possible to attach the attachment string 3 by sewing it directly to the main body. By providing the ring 2, the freedom of movement of the attachment string 3 is increased, making it easier to wear, so it is preferable to provide the ring 2.

[0019] 3 is a rear view of the underwear 1 of this embodiment with a towel hung on the towel ring 5. The towel ring 5 is a functional component that allows a regular towel to be threaded through the ring and kept hanging around the neck. Normally, if a towel is simply hung around the neck, it tends to slip off or fall off as you move, which can be a nuisance, but providing the towel ring 5 of this embodiment on the underwear 1 eliminates this nuisance.

[0020] The material of the towel rack ring 5 of this embodiment is not particularly limited, and any material that can be formed into a ring shape, such as fabric, leather, or string, can be used. Fabric is preferable because lighter materials are less noticeable and more comfortable to wear. Regarding the diameter of the ring, any size suitable for hanging towels can be used without any problems, but a diameter of approximately 3 to 7 cm is preferable from a practical standpoint.

[0021] The towel rack ring 5 is preferably attached by sewing it to a part of the main body 6, as this method allows for simple and strong attachment. However, this is not the only method, and other attachment methods such as gluing are also possible. Furthermore, since the towel rack ring is intended to be used to hang a towel around the neck, it is preferable to attach it to the approximate center of the back side of the head hole 4, as this improves functionality and ease of wearing.

[0022] In the above embodiment, the description has been given on the assumption that one piece of underwear 1 is worn, but this is not limited to this, and two or more pieces can be worn in layers. Layering, especially in winter, can further enhance the cold protection function. FIG. 5 shows the state in which two pieces of underwear 1 of this embodiment and another piece of underwear 1' are layered on top of each other. In this embodiment, for convenience of explanation, the state in which two pieces of underwear 1 and another piece of underwear 1' are layered on top of each other is shown, but this is not particularly limited, and it is also possible to wear underwear 1 and then another piece of underwear 1' to form a layered garment.

[0023] As shown in FIG. 5, the four attachment strings 3 of the first piece of underwear 1 are passed through the four rings 2 of the second piece of underwear 1', respectively, to secure the two pieces of underwear 1 and 1' together. This makes it possible to wear two pieces of underwear stacked together. By layering underwear 1 having rings 2 in this manner as in this embodiment, there is no need to attach attachment strings 3 to the second and subsequent pieces of underwear (the effect of rings 2). Note that although this embodiment shows two pieces of underwear being layered, it is also possible to layer more than two pieces of underwear.

[0024] As explained above, the underwear 1 of this embodiment can provide underwear that is highly comfortable to wear and can efficiently absorb and wipe away sweat even in conditions where sweat is heavy, such as in the summer. Furthermore, it is highly functional and can be expected to be used in situations where sweat is heavy. It can also be used as cold weather clothing in winter or in places where the air conditioning is too strong, and can be worn in cold environments to protect against the cold. Underwear that can be worn comfortably from hot to cold seasons is excellent in that it has a wide range of uses and can be worn all year round.

[0025] In this embodiment, the main body portion 6 is shown as being approximately rectangular, but some modifications may be made to suit women. As shown in FIG. 6, to specifically tailor the underwear of this invention to women, a slit can be made in the lower part of the main body portion 6 so that the front portion 7 of the main body portion is divided into two sections when worn. The slit extends from approximately the center of the shorter side of the rectangular main body portion 6 to approximately parallel to the longer side, but does not reach the head opening 4 (approximately 2-3 cm). The neck of the front portion 7 is also slit deeper than the underwear 1 of the previous embodiment, allowing the head opening 4 to be worn by a woman without interfering with her bust.
