Description

[Technical field]

[0001] The present invention relates to a garment with a wire, and more particularly to a garment with a wire that prevents the wire from coming out of a wire loop. [Background technology]

[0002] Conventionally, there have been known wired clothing such as wired brassieres and corrective underwear. In such wired clothing, for example, wired brassieres, the wire may touch the skin or dig into the skin when worn, causing discomfort when worn.

[0003] As a result, various types of underwire brassieres have been developed that can reduce the contact of the underwire with the skin.

[0004] For example, Patent Document 1 discloses a garment with cups in which a wire loop is sewn to a front fabric, a skin fabric, and a base fabric so that the wire member is biased toward the upper edge within the wire loop. In this garment with cups, the wire member is biased toward the upper edge within the wire loop, which makes it easier for the wire member to follow the bust line of the wearer when worn, and can suitably reduce the contact of the wire member with the skin.

[0005] [Patent Document 1] Patent No. 6331564 Summary of the Invention [Problem to be solved by the invention]

[0006] Conventionally, various underwire brassieres have been developed to reduce the contact of the underwire with the skin. However, in addition to the skin contact, another problem with underwire clothing is that the underwire may come out of the underwire loop after repeated wearing.

[0007] According to the technology described in Patent Document 1, the position of the wire member is regulated so that it is unevenly distributed toward the upper edge portion within the wire loop, but the movement of the wire member in the longitudinal direction is not restricted. Therefore, if the wire member moves repeatedly in the longitudinal direction due to repeated wearing, the wire member may break the wire loop made of a soft material such as a woven or knitted fabric and come out of the wire loop.

[0008] An object of the present disclosure is to provide a technique for preventing a wire from coming out of a wire loop in a wired garment. [Means for solving the problem]

[0009] The wired garment of the present disclosure is a garment having a wire. The wired garment comprises a garment main body and a wire loop in which the wire is enclosed. The wire has a sewing hole at its end, and a fabric material arranged to cover the end of the wire is sewn into the sewing hole, and the fabric material is sewn to the garment main body, thereby fixing the wire and the garment main body within the wire loop.

[0010] In the above-mentioned wired garment, the wire is fixed to the garment main body, so that the wire can be prevented from moving in the wire loop in the longitudinal direction. This prevents the wire from moving in the wire loop even when the garment is worn repeatedly, so that the wire can be prevented from breaking the wire loop and coming out of the wire loop as much as possible. Furthermore, as described above, the wire is fixed to the garment main body via a fabric material, so that the force for preventing the wire from moving in the longitudinal direction is prevented from concentrating on the end of the wire, and there is no need to sew the end of the wire firmly, that is, to make the sewn part thick, in order to deal with such a concentration of force. This allows the thickness of the sewn part for fixing the wire to the garment main body to be distributed, thereby reducing the contact of the end of the wire with the skin.

[0011] In the above-described configuration of the wired garment of the present disclosure, the sewing hole may be formed in a polygonal shape defined by line segments of four or more sides, which makes it easier to sew the fabric material into the sewing hole.

[0012] In the above-described wired garment, the end of the wire may be formed into a flat shape, thereby reducing the contact of the end of the wire with the skin. Effect of the Invention

[0013] According to the present disclosure, in a garment with wire, the wire can be prevented from coming out from the wire loop. [Brief description of the drawings]

[0015] Hereinafter, embodiments of the present disclosure will be described with reference to the drawings. The configurations of the following embodiments are merely examples, and the present disclosure is not limited to the configurations of the embodiments.

[0016] An overview of the underwire garment of this embodiment will be described with reference to Fig. 1 and Fig. 2. Fig. 1 is a diagram showing the schematic configuration of the underwire garment of this embodiment, and Fig. 2 is a diagram showing the schematic configuration in the AA cross section of Fig. 1. A brassiere 1 according to this embodiment is underwire garment having a wire 2.

[0017] As shown in FIG. 1, the brassiere 1 has a main body 10 made up of a cup portion 11, a base portion 12, side panels 13, narrow shoulder strap portions 14, and armpit belts 15.

[0018] 2, the brassiere 1 includes a wire loop 3 in which the wire 2 is enclosed. The wire loop 3 is a tubular piece of fabric, and is sewn into a tubular shape to the base 12 by known means. The wire loop 3 may be made of a soft material such as a woven or knitted fabric, taking into consideration how it feels against the wearer's skin.

[0019] When a brassiere has an underwire, the underwire tends to move repeatedly in the longitudinal direction as the brassiere is worn repeatedly, which can result in the underwire breaking through the underwire loop, which is made of soft material such as woven or knitted fabric, and coming out of the loop.

[0020] Therefore, as shown in Fig. 3 described later, the brassiere 1 according to this embodiment has a sewing hole 2b at the end 2a of the wire 2. Then, a cloth material 20 arranged to cover the end 2a of the wire 2 is sewn into the sewing hole 2b, and the cloth material 20 is sewn to the main body 10, thereby fixing the wire 2 and the main body 10 within the wire loop 3. This will be described with reference to Figs. 3 and 4.

[0021] Fig. 3 is a first diagram for explaining the cloth material 20 for fixing the wire 2 and the main body 10. As shown in Fig. 3(a), a sewing hole 2b is formed in the end 2a of the wire 2. Furthermore, as shown in Fig. 3(b), the cloth material 20 is arranged to cover the end 2a of the wire 2. Then, as shown in Fig. 3(c), the cloth material 20 arranged to cover the end 2a of the wire 2 is sewn to the wire 2, forming a sewing part A between the cloth material 20 and the sewing hole 2b.

[0022] Although FIG. 3 shows an example in which a single circular hole is formed as the sewing hole 2b in the end 2a of the wire 2, the sewing hole 2b of the present disclosure may be composed of multiple holes, and its shape is not limited to a circular hole.

[0023] 4 is a second diagram for explaining the cloth material 20 for fixing the wire 2 and the main body 10. Here, FIG. 4 shows the arrangement of the wire 2 enclosed in the wire loop 3 and the arrangement of the cloth material 20 sewn to the sewing hole 2b of the wire 2, and in order to explain these, the wire loop 3 is omitted from the illustration.

[0024] As shown in Fig. 4(a), the fabric material 20 covering the end 2a of the wire 2 is sewn to the side panel 13, forming a seam B. This fixes the wire 2 and the main body 10 within the wire loop 3. Alternatively, as shown in Fig. 4(b), the fabric material 20 may cover both ends of the wire 2, and these fabric materials 20 may be sewn to the main body 10.

[0025] By fixing the wire 2 in this manner, the movement of the wire 2 in the longitudinal direction within the wire loop 3 can be restricted. This restricts the movement of the wire 2 within the wire loop 3 even when the garment is worn repeatedly, and therefore the situation in which the wire 2 breaks the wire loop 3 and jumps out of the wire loop 3 can be restricted as much as possible. Furthermore, as described above, by fixing the wire 2 to the main body 10 via the cloth material 20, the concentration of force for restricting the movement of the wire 2 in the longitudinal direction at the end 2a of the wire 2 can be restricted, and it is not necessary to form the sewn part of the end 2a of the wire 2 firmly, that is, to form the sewn part thick, in order to deal with such a concentration of force. This allows the thickness of the sewn part for fixing the wire 2 to the main body 10 to be distributed between the sewn part (sewn part A) between the stitching hole 2b and the cloth material 20 and the sewn part (sewn part B) between the cloth material 20 and the side panel 13, thereby reducing the contact of the end 2a of the wire 2 with the skin.

[0026] In this embodiment, the sewing hole 2b may be formed in a polygonal shape defined by line segments of four or more sides.

[0027] Here, Fig. 5 is a diagram illustrating another shape of the end 2a of the wire 2 and the sewing hole 2b. In this embodiment, as shown in Fig. 5(a), the end 2a of the wire 2 and the sewing hole 2b may be formed in a quadrangle. According to this, as shown in Fig. 5(b), the sewing part A can be provided on the side that forms the sewing hole 2b, so that it becomes easier to sew the fabric material 20 to the sewing hole 2b.

[0028] In this embodiment, the end 2a of the wire 2 may be formed into a flat shape, which can reduce the contact of the end 2a of the wire 2 with the skin.

[0029] According to the brassiere 1 described above, the wire 2 can be prevented from coming out from the wire loop 3.

[0030] <Other Modifications> The above embodiment is merely an example, and the present disclosure may be modified as appropriate without departing from the spirit and scope of the present disclosure. For example, the means described in the present disclosure may be freely combined as long as no technical contradiction occurs.

[0031] Moreover, the wired garment of the present disclosure may be a corrective undergarment. Fig. 6 is a diagram showing a schematic configuration of a garment with bones in this modified example.

[0032] As shown in FIG. 6(a), the corrective undergarment 1' according to this modification is a garment with a bone 2' (corresponding to the wire of the present disclosure), and the main body part 10' is provided with a loop 3' in which the bone 2' is enclosed. As shown in FIG. 6(b), the fabric material 20 covering the end of the bone 2' is sewn to the main body part 10' to form a sewing part. Note that the loop 3' is omitted in FIG. 6(b). This can prevent the bone 2' from breaking the loop 3' and coming out of the loop 3' as much as possible. [Explanation of symbols]
