Description

Clothing with openings Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to a garment with an opening, specifically, to a garment with both an inward folding structure and an outward folding structure in the opening. Background Technology

[0002] When processing the fabric end of a garment opening, it is generally necessary to overlock the fabric end and fold it inwards once before sewing it in place. Alternatively, the fabric end of the opening can be folded inwards twice without overlocking, and then secured by sewing, adhesive, or glue strips. For example, Patent Document 1 describes a garment in which the opening is formed by a joint created by folding the fabric end twice and securing it with dotted adhesive. This prevents the fabric end of the opening from coming undone and maintains a good appearance.

[0005] Patent Document 1: Japanese Invention Patent Publication No. P2022-26748A. Summary of the Invention

[0006] However, in the aforementioned patent document 1, because the fabric ends of the opening are folded to the same side, a heavy feeling is generated at the same opening, and the form is monotonous and the style is not novel.

[0007] The present invention was made to solve the above-mentioned problems, and its purpose is to provide a garment with an opening that has both an inward folding structure and an outward folding structure, wherein the opening is aesthetically pleasing, has a sense of design, and does not appear bulky.

Detailed Implementation

[0025] Hereinafter, specific embodiments of the present invention will be described with reference to the accompanying drawings. It should be noted that the drawings are merely schematic.

[0026] Figure 1 is a schematic diagram illustrating the appearance of the garment involved in this invention, showing an example of a top, with the opening being the neckline. As shown in Figure 1, the top is composed of a front panel 11 and a back panel 14. The fabric end of the neckline of the front panel 11 is folded twice outwards, thus giving the front neckline an outward fold structure 3; the fabric end of the neckline of the back panel 14 is folded twice inwards, thus giving the back neckline an inward fold structure 4. This achieves both an inward and outward fold structure at the neckline. The double folds prevent the exposed fabric ends from rubbing and creating frayed edges. Of course, the front neckline can also have an inward fold structure 4, and the back neckline can have an outward fold structure 3; the change in folding direction does not affect the overall design of the garment. Considering the observation habits of ordinary consumers, it is preferable that the outward fold structure 3 is located on the front side of the garment.

[0027] It should be noted that in this invention, the inner side refers to the side that is close to the skin, and the outer side refers to the side that is opposite to the skin.

[0028] Figure 2 is a cross-sectional schematic diagram of the opening formed after the fabric end of the present invention is folded twice consecutively. Figure 2(a) is a cross-sectional schematic diagram of the outward folded portion 3, and Figure 2(b) is a cross-sectional schematic diagram of the inward folded portion 4. In Figure 2(a), starting from the fabric layer where the fabric end is located, the layers are sequentially arranged as follows: outward folded first fabric layer 321, outward folded second fabric layer 322, and outward folded third fabric layer 323. In Figure 2(b), starting from the fabric layer where the fabric end is located, the layers are sequentially arranged as follows: inward folded first fabric layer 421, inward folded second fabric layer 422, and inward folded third fabric layer 423.

[0029] The height of the opening formed after the fabric end is folded twice is the height of the second fabric layer. To minimize the thickness of the opening, the height of the first fabric layer is less than or equal to the height of the second fabric layer. Preferably, the height of the first fabric layer is slightly less than the height of the second fabric layer, resulting in a uniform thickness and a smooth appearance at the opening.

[0030] The first and third fabric layers need to be fixed together with adhesive 5 to maintain the stability of the folded structure at the opening. Adhesive 5 can be a dot-shaped adhesive or a linear adhesive. Since dot-shaped adhesives do not affect the stretchability of the fabric at the opening and can reduce the amount of coating and lower costs while ensuring bonding strength, they are preferred. The shape of the dot-shaped adhesive is generally circular, but not limited to this. The diameter of the dot-shaped adhesive can be arbitrarily selected within a range of 2.0 mm, depending on the fabric thickness. The dot-shaped adhesives can be arranged linearly or non-linearly, such as triangular, quadrilateral, elliptical, or other geometric shapes, or combinations thereof. Considering the convenience of production operations, bonding strength, and garment stiffness, it is preferable that the dot-shaped adhesives are arranged in a straight line along the length of the opening.

[0031] Since the adhesive 5 is applied inside the opening, the height of the opening determines the amount of adhesive 5 applied. A larger opening height increases the distance between the linearly arranged adhesive layers, satisfying the bonding strength requirements without affecting the original feel of the fabric at the opening. A smaller opening height allows for a tighter arrangement of the adhesive, thus improving bonding strength. If the opening height is too small, insufficient adhesive may be used, affecting bonding strength. Therefore, this invention preferably specifies an opening height of 5mm or more, meaning the height of the second fabric layer is 5mm or more.

[0032] To enhance the aesthetics and comfort of the garment, the height of the second fabric layer is preferably 5–20 mm when the opening is at the neckline; and preferably 10–20 mm when the opening is at the hem or waistband. Since necklines generally have a certain degree of curvature, to avoid pulling on the fabric ends during folding, the height of the second fabric layer for necklines with a smaller radius of curvature is preferably 5–15 mm.

[0033] Between the first and second fabric layers, an adhesive can be applied or not. When the garment fabric is relatively thin, and a single layer of adhesive is sufficient to bond the two layers firmly and meet the peel strength requirements for daily wear and washing, an adhesive can be omitted between the first and second fabric layers to avoid increasing the thickness of the opening. When the garment fabric is relatively thick, and adhesive alone between the first and third fabric layers is insufficient to achieve the required peel strength, an adhesive can be applied between the first and second fabric layers to maintain the shape stability of the opening.

[0034] As shown in Figure 1, when connecting the outward folding structure 3 and the inward folding structure 4 in the collar, they can be sewn together directly using methods such as plain stitching, according to conventional garment manufacturing methods. However, this results in six layers of fabric at the joint between the outward folding structure 3 and the inward folding structure 4, which not only affects the appearance of the collar but also the wearing comfort. Therefore, the present invention provides a joining method as shown in Figure 3.

[0035] As shown in Figure 3(a), when two folded structures belonging to different garment pieces are joined together at the neckline, the lengths of the first and second folded fabric layers 321 and 322 of the outer folded structure 3 of the front garment piece 11 are shorter than the length of the third folded fabric layer 323. When the folded structure 3 of the front garment piece 11 is joined with the inner folded structure 4 of the back garment piece 14, the outer folded structure 3 of the front garment piece 11 extends beyond the third folded fabric layer 323, which is inserted between the first and third folded fabric layers 421 and 423 of the inner folded structure 4 of the back garment piece 14. The completed neckline joint 6 is shown in Figure 3(b). The width m of the joint 6 is the length of the third folded fabric layer 323 inserted into the inner folded structure 4 along the length of the opening, thus significantly reducing the thickness of the neckline joint 6. The length difference between the first folded fabric layer 321, the second folded fabric layer 322, and the third folded fabric layer 323 of the outward folding structure 3 of the front garment piece 11 can be obtained by cutting after folding, or a corresponding gap can be reserved during pattern making.

[0036] To enhance the adhesion at the joint 6, it is preferable that both sides of the outer folded third fabric layer 323 of the outer folded structure 3 of the inner folded structure 4 are respectively fixedly connected to the inner folded first fabric layer 421 and the inner folded third fabric layer 423 of the inner folded structure 4 using adhesive 5. Further, bar stitching or other methods can be used at the joint line between the outer folded structure 3 and the inner folded structure 4 to improve the durability of the opening.

[0037] It should be noted that during the splicing process, the outer folding structure 3 of the front garment piece 11 can be inserted into the inner folding structure 4 of the back garment piece 14 in the manner described above. Alternatively, the length difference between the inner folding structure 423 and the other two fabric layers can be cut out from the inner folding structure 4 of the back garment piece 14, and then the excess inner folding structure 423 of the back garment piece 14 can be inserted into the outer folding structure 3 of the front garment piece 11.

[0038] To ensure a smoother overall opening, the width m of each individual joint 6 should be as small as possible. However, if the width m of the joint 6 is too small, the adhesive strength of the joint 6 will be insufficient. Therefore, the width m of the joint 6 in this invention is preferably 7 mm or more. When the opening is a neckline, the width m of the joint 6 is further preferably 7-10 mm to reduce the stretching of the fabric at the seam and accommodate different collar styles. When the opening is a hem or waistband, the width m of the joint 6 is further preferably 10-30 mm to satisfy both the design and practicality of the garment.

[0039] Compared to the conventional method of overlapping fabrics at the joint, the above-mentioned insertion splicing method can reduce the thickness of the joint, improve the flatness of the opening, and eliminate obvious seam marks at the opening, thus improving the appearance.

[0040] The insert-type splicing method described in this invention is applicable not only to two garment pieces with different folding directions at their openings, but also to two garment pieces with the same folding direction at their openings. Figures 5 and 6 show the situation where two folding structures with the same folding direction need to be spliced. Figures 5 and 6 show the neckline of a garment. The garment is composed of four main body fabric pieces: a front garment piece 11, a back garment piece 14, a left garment piece 12, and a right garment piece 13. In Figure 5, the neckline of the front garment piece 11 is folded outwards to form an outward folding structure 3, while the necklines of the back garment piece 14, left garment piece 12, and right garment piece 13 are all folded inwards to form an inward folding structure 4. Therefore, the neckline splicing point of the front garment piece 11 with the left garment piece 12 and the right garment piece 13 is a splicing of the outward folding structure 3 and the inward folding structure 4, and the neckline splicing point of the back garment piece 14 with the left garment piece 12 and the right garment piece 13 is a splicing of the inward folding structure 4 with the inward folding structure 4.

[0041] In Figure 6, the neckline of the front garment piece 11 is folded inward to form an inward fold structure 4, while the necklines of the back garment piece 14, left garment piece 12, and right garment piece 13 are all folded outward to form an outward fold structure 3. Therefore, the neckline joints of the front garment piece 11 with the left garment piece 12 and the right garment piece 13 are a combination of outward fold structure 3 and inward fold structure 4, and the neckline joints of the back garment piece 14 with the left garment piece 12 and the right garment piece 13 are a combination of outward fold structure 3 and outward fold structure 3.

[0042] In the neckline shown in Figures 5 and 6, there are four joints 6.

[0043] It should be noted that the combination of folding structures at the neckline of a garment composed of four pieces of fabric is not limited to Figures 5 and 6, and can be combined arbitrarily. Depending on the design requirements, the number of fabric pieces at the opening can also be three, five, or more, to accommodate diverse garment designs.

[0044] In addition to tops, the garments described in this invention also include trousers, skirts, underwear, etc. The openings include necklines, cuffs, hems, waistbands, etc. Furthermore, an inward folding structure and an outward folding structure can be simultaneously provided at one opening of the garment, or an inward folding structure and an outward folding structure can be simultaneously provided at multiple openings of the garment.

[0045] Depending on the style and design of the garment, different materials and types of fabrics can be combined on the garment body, creating a rich appearance and feel through inward and outward folding structures. When the opening is at the waistband, a more elastic fabric can be used, or elastic webbing can be applied to improve the elasticity of the waistband. Depending on the location of the opening, the garment body fabric represents different areas. For example, when the opening is at the waistband, the garment body fabric represents the trouser leg; when the opening is at the neckline or hem, the garment body fabric represents the body.

[0046] Depending on the location of the opening or the garment design, a portion of the opening may be composed of a pattern with varying curvature, such as a round neckline or a wavy, irregular hem. In areas with varying curvature, multiple folds increase the difference in circumference from the inner to the outer arc, meaning the folded length is longer than the fabric end, requiring the fabric end to stretch to accommodate the folded length. With a consistent fold width, more folds result in a longer outer arc circumference; simultaneously, a smaller radius of curvature leads to a greater difference in circumference between the inner and outer arcs. A larger difference in circumference makes the fabric at the opening more prone to shrinkage and wrinkling. To reduce these wrinkles, the opening's joint is preferably located at the minimum radius of curvature, minimizing fabric stretching due to folding and avoiding unsightly openings. It should be noted that the minimum radius of curvature refers to the smallest portion of the curvature variation relative to the opening, and is selected based on the garment's appearance or design.

[0047] The insertion splicing method is applicable not only to openings with narrow joints similar to those in Figures 1, 5 and 6, but also to fashion garments where different garment pieces overlap significantly at the opening, as shown in Figure 7. As shown in Figure 7, the front piece of a garment consists of an irregular right piece 15 and an irregular left piece 16. Both the irregular right piece 15 and the irregular left piece 16 are irregular in shape. The fabric end at the neckline of the irregular left piece 16 is folded outward twice to form an outward fold structure 3. Starting from the fabric layer where the fabric end is located, there are three consecutive outward folds: the first outward fold fabric layer 321, the second outward fold fabric layer 322, and the third outward fold fabric layer 323. The fabric end at the neckline of the irregular right piece 15 is directly inserted between the first outward fold fabric layer 321 and the third outward fold fabric layer 323 of the outward fold structure 3 of the irregular left piece 16. Both sides of the fabric end at the neckline of the irregular right piece 15 are bonded and fixed to the first outward fold fabric layer 321 and the third outward fold fabric layer 323 of the outward fold structure 3 of the irregular left piece 16 by adhesive 5.

[0048] The resin constituting adhesive 5 is preferably a reactive hot melt adhesive. When the resin is a reactive hot melt adhesive, the resin softens or melts and penetrates into the interstices of the bonding area. After cooling and curing, it reacts with the surrounding moisture, thereby cross-linking, and can form an adhesive structure with excellent heat resistance, solvent resistance and washability.

[0049] This invention creates an opening by directly folding the fabric end of the garment body, reducing fabric consumption and processing steps, thus lowering costs. Simultaneously, the inclusion of both inward and outward folding structures within the same opening provides a more aesthetically pleasing design for the garment. Furthermore, the insert-type splicing method ensures a smooth and aesthetically pleasing joint between the folded structures.

[0050] The present invention will be further described in detail below based on specific embodiments. These embodiments only provide simple experimental pieces for observation and testing of necessary performance to illustrate the effects of the features defined in the claims of the present invention; therefore, they do not fully describe the entire process of garment manufacturing.

[0051] Example 1

[0052] Prepare a bodice with a one-shoulder neckline, consisting of a front bodice 11 and a back bodice 14. The fabric end of the front bodice 11 at the neckline is folded outwards twice to form an outward fold structure 3 with a first outward folded fabric layer 321, a second outward folded fabric layer 322, and a third outward folded fabric layer 323. The distance of the first fold (i.e., the width of the first outward folded fabric layer 321) is 5mm, and the distance of the second fold (i.e., the width of the second outward folded fabric layer 322) is 7mm. The fabric end of the back bodice 14 at the neckline is folded inwards twice to form an inward fold structure 4 with an inward folded fabric layer 421, a second inward folded fabric layer 422, and a third inward folded fabric layer 423. The distance of the first fold (i.e., the width of the first inward folded fabric layer 421) is 5mm, and the distance of the second fold (i.e., the width of the second inward folded fabric layer 422) is 7mm.

[0053] Along the collar length, the ends of the first and second folded fabric layers 321 and 322 of the outward folding structure 3 of the front garment piece 11 are shortened respectively, so that the ends of the first and second folded fabric layers 321 and 322 of the outward folding structure 3 of the front garment piece 11 are aligned, and the ends of the third folded fabric layer 323 extend 7mm beyond the width of the first and second folded fabric layers 321 and 322 respectively. Adhesive 5 is applied to the third folded fabric layer 323 of the outward folding structure 3 of the front garment piece 11 and the third folded fabric layer 423 of the inward folding structure 4 of the back garment piece 14.

[0054] The protruding third fabric layer 323 of the outward folding structure 3 at both ends of the front garment piece 11 is fully inserted between the first inward folding fabric layer 421 and the third inward folding fabric layer 423 of the inward folding structure 4 of the back garment piece 14, as shown in Figure 3. There are two joints 6, and the width m of each joint 6 is 7 mm. Then, the pieces are bonded using a conventional flatbed hot press to obtain the test piece of Example 1.

[0055] A 100mm strip sample was cut along the length of the neckline, centered on joint 6. The width of the sample was only the height of the neckline. The obtained sample was clamped along its length on a YG(B)026G type electronic fabric tensile testing machine with a clamping distance of 50mm. It was then stretched at a speed of 300mm / min. The strength at which the sample broke was the peel strength of joint 6. The peel strength of two joints 6 was tested, and the average value is shown in Table 1.

[0056] Example 2

[0057] Prepare a bodice with a one-shoulder neckline, consisting of a front bodice 11 and a back bodice 14. The fabric end of the front bodice 11 at the neckline is folded outwards twice to form an outward fold structure 3 with a first outward folded fabric layer 321, a second outward folded fabric layer 322, and a third outward folded fabric layer 323. The distance of the first fold (i.e., the width of the first outward folded fabric layer 321) is 7mm, and the distance of the second fold (i.e., the width of the second outward folded fabric layer 322) is 10mm. The fabric end of the back bodice 14 at the neckline is folded inwards twice to form an inward fold structure 4 with an inward folded fabric layer 421, a second inward folded fabric layer 422, and a third inward folded fabric layer 423. The distance of the first fold (i.e., the width of the first inward folded fabric layer 421) is 7mm, and the distance of the second fold (i.e., the width of the second inward folded fabric layer 422) is 10mm.

[0058] Along the collar length direction, the ends of the first and second folded fabric layers 321 and 322 of the outward folding structure 3 of the front garment piece 11 are shortened respectively, so that the ends of the first and second folded fabric layers 321 and 322 of the outward folding structure 3 of the front garment piece 11 are aligned, and the ends of the third folded fabric layer 323 extend beyond the first and second folded fabric layers 321 and 322 by 10mm respectively. Adhesive 5 is applied to the third folded fabric layer 323 of the outward folding structure 3 of the front garment piece 11 and the third folded fabric layer 423 of the inward folding structure 4 of the back garment piece 14.

[0059] The protruding third fabric layer 323 of the outward folding structure 3 at both ends of the front garment piece 11 is fully inserted between the first inward folding fabric layer 421 and the third inward folding fabric layer 423 of the inward folding structure 4 of the back garment piece 14, as shown in Figure 3. There are two joints 6, and the width m of each joint 6 is 10 mm. Then, the pieces are bonded using a conventional flatbed hot press to obtain the test piece of Example 2.

[0060] A 100mm strip sample was cut along the length of the neckline, centered on joint 6. The width of the sample was only the height of the neckline. The obtained sample was clamped along its length on a YG(B)026G type electronic fabric tensile testing machine with a clamping distance of 50mm. It was then stretched at a speed of 300mm / min. The strength at which the sample broke was the peel strength of joint 6. The peel strength of two joints 6 was tested, and the average value is shown in Table 1.

[0061] Example 3

[0062] Prepare the front bodice piece 11 and the back bodice piece 14. The fabric end of the hem of the front bodice piece 11 is folded outward twice to form an outward fold structure 3 with an outward fold first fabric layer 321, an outward fold second fabric layer 322, and an outward fold third fabric layer 323. The distance of the first fold (i.e., the width of the outward fold first fabric layer 321) is 18mm, and the distance of the second fold (i.e., the width of the outward fold second fabric layer 322) is 20mm. The fabric end of the hem of the back bodice piece 14 is folded inward twice to form an inward fold structure 4 with an inward fold first fabric layer 421, an inward fold second fabric layer 422, and an inward fold third fabric layer 423. The distance of the first fold (i.e., the width of the inward fold first fabric layer 421) is 5mm, and the distance of the second fold (i.e., the width of the inward fold second fabric layer 422) is 20mm.

[0063] Along the length of the hem, the ends of the first and second folded fabric layers 321 and 322 of the outward folding structure 3 of the front garment piece 11 are shortened respectively, so that the ends of the first and second folded fabric layers 321 and 322 of the outward folding structure 3 of the front garment piece 11 are aligned, and the ends of the third folded fabric layer 323 extend 15mm beyond the width of the first and second folded fabric layers 321 and 322 respectively. Adhesive 5 is applied to the third folded fabric layer 323 of the outward folding structure 3 of the front garment piece 11 and the third folded fabric layer 423 of the inward folding structure 4 of the back garment piece 14.

[0064] The protruding third fabric layer 323 of the outward folding structure 3 at both ends of the front garment piece 11 is fully inserted between the first inward folding fabric layer 421 and the third inward folding fabric layer 423 of the inward folding structure 4 of the back garment piece 14, as shown in Figure 3. There are two joints 6, and the width m of each joint 6 is 15mm. Then, the pieces are bonded using a conventional flatbed hot press to obtain the test piece of Example 3.

[0065] A 100mm strip sample was cut along the neckline, centered on joint 6. The width of the sample was only the height of the hem. The obtained sample was clamped along its length on a YG(B)026G type electronic fabric tensile testing machine with a clamping distance of 50mm. It was then stretched at a speed of 300mm / min. The strength at which the sample broke was the peel strength of joint 6. The peel strength of two joints 6 was tested, and the average value is shown in Table 1.

[0066] Example 4

[0067] Prepare the front garment piece 11, back garment piece 14, left garment piece 12, and right garment piece 13 for the main body. The positional relationship of each garment piece is shown in Figure 5. The fabric ends at the neckline of the front garment piece 11 are folded outward twice to form an outward folding structure 3 with an outward folded first fabric layer 321, an outward folded second fabric layer 322, and an outward folded third fabric layer 323. The distance of the first fold (i.e., the width of the outward folded first fabric layer 321) is 5 mm, and the distance of the second fold (i.e., the width of the outward folded second fabric layer 322) is 7 mm. The fabric ends at the neckline of the back garment piece 14, left garment piece 12, and right garment piece 13 are folded inward twice to form an inward folding structure 4 with an inward folded first fabric layer 421, an inward folded second fabric layer 422, and an inward folded third fabric layer 423, respectively. The distance of the first fold (i.e., the width of the inward folded first fabric layer 421) is 5 mm, and the distance of the second fold (i.e., the width of the inward folded second fabric layer 422) is 7 mm.

[0068] In the collar length direction, the ends of the first folded fabric layer 321 and the second folded fabric layer 322 of the outward folding structure 3 of the front garment piece 11 are shortened respectively, so that the ends of the first folded fabric layer 321 and the second folded fabric layer 322 of the outward folding structure 3 of the front garment piece 11 are aligned, and the ends of the third folded fabric layer 323 extend beyond the width of the first folded fabric layer 321 and the second folded fabric layer 322 by 8mm respectively; the ends of the first folded fabric layer 421 and the second folded fabric layer 422 of the inward folding structure 4 of the back garment piece 14 are shortened respectively, so that the ends of the first folded fabric layer 421 and the second folded fabric layer 422 of the inward folding structure 4 of the inward folding structure 4 of the back garment piece 14 are aligned, and one end of the third folded fabric layer 423 extends beyond the width of the first folded fabric layer 421 and the second folded fabric layer 422 by 8mm respectively.

[0069] Adhesive 5 is applied to the outer folding third fabric layer 323 of the outer folding structure 3 of the front garment piece 11 and the inner folding third fabric layer 423 of the inner folding structure 4 of the back garment piece 14, the left garment piece 12 and the right garment piece 13.

[0070] The protruding third fabric layer 323 of the outward folding structure 3 at both ends of the front garment piece 11 and the protruding third fabric layer 423 of the inward folding structure 4 at both ends of the back garment piece 14 are inserted between the first fabric layer 421 and the third fabric layer 423 of the inward folding structure 4 of the left garment piece 12 and the right garment piece 13, respectively, as shown in Figure 3. There are two joints 6, and the width m of each joint 6 is 8 mm. Then, they are bonded using a conventional flatbed hot press to obtain the test piece of Example 4.

[0071] A 100mm strip sample was cut along the hem length, centered on joint 6. The width of the sample was only the neckline height. The obtained sample was clamped along its length on a YG(B)026G type electronic fabric tensile testing machine with a clamping distance of 50mm. It was then stretched at a speed of 300mm / min. The strength at which the sample broke was the peel strength of joint 6. The peel strength of four joints 6 was tested, and the average value is shown in Table 1.

[0073] Prepare the back piece 14, the irregular right piece 15, and the irregular left piece 16 of the main body. The shape and positional relationship of each piece are shown in Figure 7. The fabric end at the neckline of the irregular left piece 16 is folded outward twice to form an outward fold structure 3 with an outward fold first fabric layer 321, an outward fold second fabric layer 322, and an outward fold third fabric layer 323. The distance of the first fold (i.e., the width of the outward fold first fabric layer 321) is 10mm, and the distance of the second fold (i.e., the width of the outward fold second fabric layer 322) is 12mm.

The peel strength of the two junctions was tested, and the average value is shown in Table 1.

[0077] At the overlapping position of the irregular right garment piece 15 and the irregular left garment piece 16 at the neckline, a 100mm strip sample is cut along the length of the neckline, centered on the neckline. The width of the sample is 50mm along the length of the neckline. The obtained sample is then clamped along its length onto a YG(B)026G type electronic fabric tensile testing machine, with a clamping distance of 50mm. The sample is then stretched at a speed of 300mm / min. The strength at which the sample breaks is the peel strength at the bond between the irregular right garment piece 15 and the irregular left garment piece 16. Two samples are taken for testing, and the average values ​​are shown in Table 1.

[0078] Example 6

[0079] Prepare the outer layer 17, inner layer 18, and body layer 19 for the crotch area of ​​the underwear. The shape and positional relationship of each piece are shown in Figure 8. The fabric end of the inner garment piece 18 is folded outward twice at the waistband to form an outward folding structure 3 with an outward folded first fabric layer 321, an outward folded second fabric layer 322, and an outward folded third fabric layer 323. The distance of the first fold (i.e., the width of the outward folded first fabric layer 321) is 38 mm, and the distance of the second fold (i.e., the width of the outward folded second fabric layer 322) is 40 mm. The fabric end of the trouser garment piece 19 is folded inward twice at the waistband to form an inward folding structure 4 with an inward folded first fabric layer 421, an inward folded second fabric layer 422, and an inward folded third fabric layer 423. The distance of the first fold (i.e., the width of the inward folded first fabric layer 421) is 38 mm, and the distance of the second fold (i.e., the width of the inward folded second fabric layer 422) is 40 mm.

[0080] Along the waistband length, the ends of the first and second folded fabric layers 321 and 322 of the outer folding structure 3 of the inner garment piece 18 are shortened respectively, so that the ends of the first and second folded fabric layers 321 and 322 of the outer folding structure 3 of the inner garment piece 18 are aligned, and the ends of the third folded fabric layer 323 extend beyond the width of the first and second folded fabric layers 321 and 322 by 30mm respectively. Adhesive 5 is applied to the contact surfaces (both sides) of the first and second folded fabric layers 321 and 322 of the outer folding structure 3 of the inner garment piece 18 and the third folded fabric layer 423 of the inner folding structure 4 of the trouser body piece 19.

[0081] The outer garment piece 18 has its two protruding outer fold structure 3 outer fold third fabric layer 323 inserted between the inner fold structure 4 inner fold first fabric layer 421 and inner fold third fabric layer 423 of the inner fold structure 4 of the trouser garment piece 19. The waistband fabric end of the outer garment piece 17 is inserted between the outer fold structure 3 outer fold first fabric layer 321 and outer fold third fabric layer 323 of the outer fold structure 3 of the inner garment piece 18. Then, the pieces are bonded using a conventional flatbed hot press to obtain the test piece of Example 6.

[0082] A 100mm strip sample was cut along the waistband length, centered on the joint between the inner garment piece 18 and the trouser body piece 19. The width of the sample was only the height of the waistband. The obtained sample was clamped along its length on a YG(B)026G type electronic fabric tensile testing machine with a clamping distance of 50mm. It was then stretched at a speed of 300mm / min. The strength at which the sample broke was the peel strength of the joint. The peel strength of two joints was tested, and the average value is shown in Table 1.

[0083] At the overlap of the inner garment piece 18 and the outer garment piece 17 at the waistband, a 100mm strip sample is cut along the length direction perpendicular to the waistband, with the waistband as the center. The width of the sample is 50mm. The obtained sample is then clamped along its length onto a YG(B)026G type electronic fabric tensile testing machine, with the clamps spaced 50mm apart. The sample is then stretched at a speed of 300mm / min. The strength at which the sample breaks is the peel strength at the bond between the inner garment piece 18 and the outer garment piece 17. Two samples are taken for testing, and the average values ​​are shown in Table 1.

[0084] Example 7

[0085] Prepare a bodice with a one-shoulder neckline, consisting of a front bodice 11 and a back bodice 14. The fabric end of the front bodice 11 at the neckline is folded outwards twice to form an outward fold structure 3 with a first outward folded fabric layer 321, a second outward folded fabric layer 322, and a third outward folded fabric layer 323. The distance of the first fold (i.e., the width of the first outward folded fabric layer 321) is 4mm, and the distance of the second fold (i.e., the width of the second outward folded fabric layer 322) is 5mm. The fabric end of the back bodice 14 at the neckline is folded inwards twice to form an inward fold structure 4 with an inward folded fabric layer 421, a second inward folded fabric layer 422, and a third inward folded fabric layer 423. The distance of the first fold (i.e., the width of the first inward folded fabric layer 421) is 4mm, and the distance of the second fold (i.e., the width of the second inward folded fabric layer 422) is 5mm.

[0086] Along the collar length, the ends of the first and second folded fabric layers 321 and 322 of the outward folding structure 3 of the front garment piece 11 are shortened respectively, so that the ends of the first and second folded fabric layers 321 and 322 of the outward folding structure 3 of the front garment piece 11 are aligned, and the ends of the third folded fabric layer 323 extend 5mm beyond the width of the first and second folded fabric layers 321 and 322 respectively. Adhesive 5 is applied to the third folded fabric layer 323 of the outward folding structure 3 of the front garment piece 11 and the third folded fabric layer 423 of the inward folding structure 4 of the back garment piece 14.

[0087] The protruding third fabric layer 323 of the outward folding structure 3 at both ends of the front garment piece 11 is fully inserted between the first inward folding fabric layer 421 and the third inward folding fabric layer 423 of the inward folding structure 4 of the back garment piece 14, as shown in Figure 3. There are two joints 6, and the width m of each joint 6 is 5 mm. Then, the joints are bonded using a conventional flatbed hot press to obtain the test piece of Example 7.

[0088] A 100mm strip sample was cut along the length of the neckline, centered on joint 6. The width of the sample was only the height of the neckline. The obtained sample was clamped along its length on a YG(B)026G type electronic fabric tensile testing machine with a clamping distance of 50mm. It was then stretched at a speed of 300mm / min. The strength at which the sample broke was the peel strength of joint 6. The peel strength of two joints 6 was tested, and the average value is shown in Table 1.

[0089] Table 1

[0090] In Examples 1 to 7, the application of adhesive 5 to the outer folded third fabric layer 323 of the outer folded structure 3 and / or the inner folded third fabric layer 423 of the inner folded structure 4 refers to the application of adhesive 5 to the side of the third fabric layer closest to the first fabric layer.

[0091] Through comparison of the above embodiments, it can be seen that although different folding distances and joining methods are used in embodiments 1 to 6, excellent peel strength and rich visual effects are achieved. Embodiment 1 has a uniform neckline thickness and no arching at the folded part. Compared with Embodiment 1, Embodiment 2 has a larger folding distance, increased resin coating, good peel strength, and a slightly wrinkled neckline; conversely, Embodiment 7 has a smaller folding distance, resulting in a slight curling of the folded part, a reduced insertion length into the fabric layer, decreased peel strength, and a slightly arched appearance, but overall it meets the usage requirements of the opening area. Embodiment 3 has a uniform thickness at the front hem, but due to the large width of the joining point, there is a thickness difference at the back hem, and the joining marks are obvious, but good peel strength is achieved. Embodiment 4 contains four joining points, reducing the influence of the neckline curvature on the folding, resulting in a flat neckline with a certain thickness difference along the length of the neckline. Embodiment 5 uses overlapping insertion of the neckline; adjusting the resin coating method can achieve a fluffy neckline, improving aesthetics, while significantly enhancing peel strength. Example 6 employs two joining methods, increasing the folding distance and making the waistband wider and thicker, providing good wrapping for the human body, while also exhibiting excellent peel strength and improving durability.
