Description

[Technical Field]

[0001] The present invention relates to underwear. [Background technology]

[0002] Japanese underwear and brassieres worn underneath traditional Japanese clothing often have difficulty in adequately suppressing the fullness of the bust, causing the garment to become distorted, making it difficult to achieve a beautiful appearance when wearing traditional Japanese clothing. Patent Document 1 shows an example of a brassiere for traditional Japanese clothing that has a high bust-enhancing effect.

[0003] However, the brassiere disclosed in Patent Document 1 has the problem that although it is possible to press the bust and bring it closer to the center, it is unable to sufficiently suppress the swelling of the bust. In addition, many regular underwear for Japanese clothing only flatten the chest, which causes the flattering breasts to flow to the sides and lower parts, making the chest appear wider and making the wearer look fatter and less neat. The above circumstances are not limited to underwear for Japanese clothing. [Prior art documents] [Patent documents]

[0011] An embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings.

[0012] Fig. 1 is a front view of the Japanese underwear of this embodiment, Fig. 2 is a side view of the Japanese underwear of this embodiment, Fig. 3 is a back view of the Japanese underwear of this embodiment, Fig. 4 is a front view of the Japanese underwear with a pair of support fabrics spread out, Fig. 5 is a back view of the Japanese underwear with the pair of support fabrics spread out, Fig. 6 is a view from the top of the head of the Japanese underwear with the pair of support fabrics spread out, and Fig. 7 is a partial view of the pair of support fabrics with the tips fastened. Note that Figs. 1 to 6 show the Japanese underwear worn on a mannequin to clearly explain the configuration and operation of the Japanese underwear.

[0013] Figure 1 shows a tank top-type underwear body 1 and a pair of support fabrics 2 attached (sewn) to the center of the outer surface of the back of the underwear body 1, extending in pairs on the left and right with the sewn part as the base end, and capable of covering at least the outside of the back, sides, and front of the underwear body 1 at a height corresponding to the bust position. The pair of support fabrics 2 comprises two types of materials with different strengths: an upper fabric 10 provided at the top and a lower fabric 20 provided at the bottom. The lower fabric 20 has elasticity and support power to firmly support the wearer's bust while pressing it against the upper fabric 10, while the upper fabric 10 is designed to provide a softer support feeling than the lower fabric 20 and to comfortably cover the wearer's bust.

[0014] The engagement / disengagement means includes a first engagement member 30 (left side in Figure 4) provided on one side of the pair of support fabrics 2, and second engagement members 30 (right side in Figure 4) provided at multiple locations on the other side of the pair of support fabrics 2 with which the first engagement member 30 can selectively engage.

[0015] The first engagement member 30 provided on one side of the pair of support fabrics 2 can be selectively engaged with any of the multiple second engagement members 30 provided on the other side, which allows for flexible adjustment of the effective dimensions of the pair of support fabrics 2. This makes it possible to maintain an ideal bust shape for Japanese clothing in accordance with various body types and bust sizes.

[0016] The first engaging member 30 and the second engaging member 30 provided on one side of the pair of support fabrics 2 have, for example, a male hook and a female hook shape. The first and second hook-shaped engaging members 30 are sewn to the lower fabric 20 only. Furthermore, the first engaging member 30 and the second engaging member 30 may be made of not only hooks but also fasteners, hooks, etc.

[0017] Figure 2 shows a side view of the tank-top-shaped underwear body 1 and a pair of support fabrics 2. The upper fabric 10 and lower fabric 20 that make up this support fabric 2 are not sewn to any part of the back of the underwear body 1 except for the central part on the outer surface, allowing it to flexibly fit the shape of the wearer's body. The pair of support fabrics 2 are made of two types of stretchable material, allowing it to provide firm support for the sides.

[0018] Many regular Japanese innerwear products only flatten the chest, which causes the flattened breasts to flow to the sides and lower part of the body, making the chest appear wider and making the wearer look fatter. However, this Japanese underwear provides firm support in the sides, resulting in a neater appearance.

[0019] Figure 3 shows the underwear body 1 and the pair of support fabrics 2 as seen from the back. The upper fabric 10 and lower fabric 20 that make up the pair of support fabrics 2 are made of two materials with different stretchability, and are sewn together at the center 200 on the outer surface of the back of the underwear body 1, making it possible to provide firm support for the back. It is possible to support a wide area of ​​the back, which leads to good posture and makes wearing Japanese clothing look beautiful.

[0020] 4 shows the front view of the pair of support fabrics 2 when they are spread out. The first engaging member 30 provided on one side of the pair of support fabrics 2 and the second engaging member 30 provided on the other side have a male-female hook shape. Since the first engagement member 30 provided on one side of the pair of support fabrics 2 can be selectively engaged with any of the multiple second engagement members 30 provided on the other side, the effective dimensions of the pair of support fabrics 2 can be flexibly adjusted.

[0021] Furthermore, the fastening and unfastening means may be not only a hook but also a fastener, a hook, stretchable rubber, or the like.

[0022] The underwear body is preferably a tank top type, which has a tubular knit and requires minimal stitching, making it easy to produce. However, the underwear body may be in other shapes, such as a bodysuit, camisole, or half-top, in addition to the tank top type.

[0023] FIG. 5 shows the pair of support fabrics 2 when spread out from the back. A pair of support fabrics 2 are provided by sewing the longitudinal center of a support fabric material made to form a single continuous strip in the left-right direction to the center of the underwear body 1. By sewn only to the central portion 200 on the outer surface of the back of the underwear body 1, stretchability is not hindered and the underwear can stretch freely to fit the wearer's body shape, making it easier to ensure a feeling of support with the same strength from all directions. Another advantage is that fewer sewing points are required during the manufacturing stage, allowing for more efficient production.

[0024] The pair of support fabrics 2 have different stretchability between the upper fabric 10 and the lower fabric 20. The lower fabric 20, which is positioned under the bust, has high supportive properties and can firmly support the wearer's bust while also pressing the bust toward the upper fabric 10. The upper fabric 10 is designed to provide weaker support than the lower fabric 20, providing gentle and comfortable support to the wearer's bust. The first and second engaging members 30 constituting the engaging and disengaging means are provided only at the tip of the lower fabric 20 of the pair of support fabrics 2. This makes it possible to firmly support the under-bust area.

[0025] The pair of support fabrics 2 is configured such that the lower fabric 20 includes a molded knit made by inserting elastic thread into the under part, and the upper fabric 10 can be configured from a material including at least one of a stretchable power net material and a lace material.

[0026] The pair of support fabrics 2 is not limited, and it is also possible to use a stretchable material such as a stretchable power net material or a lace material.

[0027] Fig. 6 shows a pair of support fabrics 2 attached by sewing to the center of the back of a tank-top-style underwear body 1. That is, Fig. 6 shows a mannequin wearing the Japanese-style underwear of this embodiment, viewed from the top of the head. The pair of support fabrics 2 are sewn only to the center of the back of the underwear body 1. The pair of support fabrics 2 shown in Fig. 6 are separated from the body.

[0028] By sewing only the central portion 200, the stretchability of the pair of support fabrics 2 is not hindered and they can stretch freely to fit the wearer's body shape, making it easier to ensure the same level of support from all directions. The stretchable fabric that makes up the pair of support fabrics 2 can fit comfortably to the shape of the entire body and around the chest.

[0029] The fabric used for the underwear body 1 is not limited to a particular material, and various materials can be used, such as a stretchy power net material or lace material. The underwear body 1 uses cotton on the skin side and is made of molded knit fabric that is gentle on the skin. This molded knit fabric provides 360-degree support without any seams, making it comfortable to wear without the discomfort of seams rubbing against the skin.

[0030] Traditional Japanese clothing consists of many layers, and is usually fastened with numerous strings and obi belts. Therefore, when worn for long periods of time, the seams of the underwear can rub against the skin, causing pain, itching, and skin damage. This underwear for traditional Japanese clothing is made from molded circular knit material, so the seams do not come into direct contact with the skin, allowing it to be worn without any discomfort.

[0031] FIG. 7 is a partial view showing a state in which the left and right engaging members 30 (first and second engaging members) sewn to the tip portions of a pair of support fabric pieces 2 are engaged with each other. The number of rows and columns of hooks in the engagement portion 30 sewn to the tip of the lower fabric 20 of the pair of support fabrics 2 can be selected arbitrarily according to the bust size and fit. If the engaging / disengaging means comprises a first engaging member 30 provided on one side of the pair of support fabrics 2 and second engaging members 30 provided at multiple locations on the other side of the pair of support fabrics 2 with which the first engaging member 30 can selectively engage, the degree of tightness can be flexibly adjusted depending on changes in physical condition and weight when worn. Also, fasteners or hooks can be used instead of hooks.

[0032] The shape of the underwear body 1 is not limited to a tank top type, but can also be a body suit type, a camisole type, a half-top type, an inner with sleeves, or the like. The present invention is not limited to underwear for Japanese clothing. [Explanation of symbols]
