Definitions

  • the invention concerns working garments especially overalls.
  • Subject of the invention are overalls, and similar that open in front with two flaps that lie one over the other.
  • Both flaps cover substantially the whole front of the garments so that when fastened they are superimposed all down the front and so give double protection.
  • Fastening is done by pairs of Velcro strips (trade mark) each one consisting of two pieces placed crosswise; this makes a quick fastening that is also widely adaptable.
  • Such adaption is made by moving the vertical strip horizontally along the horizontal strip, and vertically by moving the horizontal strip up and down the vertical one.
  • One flap at one side of the garment, extends across to the other side and, downward, to a point some way below the crotch by means of a substantially V-shaped extension.
  • the inner side of said extension is fixed to the inner side of the trouser leg of the garment.
  • the second flap opening the garment lies over the first flap, extends horizontally to the opposite side and downward to a position at substantially the same level as the first flap, also by means of a V-shaped extension whose inner side is fixed to the inner side of the trouser leg of the garment.
  • This arrangement creates forces that tend to close the two overlying flaps by the cross pull of the trousers through the crotch and lower extensions of said flaps.
  • the prior art patent DE 86 29 47 76 discovers a working garment opening at the front with two flaps one overlaying the other.
  • This two flaps extend essentially the full front part of the garment and when said garment is closed the two flaps overlap one overlying the other providing a double protection.
  • the present invention provides an absolute protection for the whole body, in particular when it is needed to use overalls and stabilization of the closing at the front of said overalls must be provided by a new crosswise pull of the overalls legs through the crutch area as it is shown herebelow.
  • the lower sides of the two opening flaps are fixed to the trouser legs of the garment, their inner edges being held by the longitudinal seam, or weld, down the inner side of said trouser legs.
  • V-shaped lower extension of the opening flaps is substantially straight and coincides with the inner seam or weld of the trouser leg; the other side, from the apex of the V,joins at a curve with the edges, substantially parallel to the longitudinal axis of the garment, of the flaps.
  • the garments may be made of paper, fabric, non-woven synthetic fabric or sheets of cheap plastic to make them disposable and therefore suitable for use where cleaning is a problem in highly polluting, infectious and dirty surroundings.
  • This protection is reinforced by the use of velcro strips for fastening, avoiding the gaps that occur when fastening is done by buttons, zips and similar sliding means.
  • the velcro strips provide not only a rapid means of fastening but also make it possible to adjust the flaps both vertically and horizontally.
  • the crosswise pull by the trouser legs over the crotch helps to keep the fastening in place without discomfort to the wearer.
  • the garments subject of the invention are quick and easy to put on, offer maximum defence against the various risks associated with their use, are inexpensive and light in weight while their double front layer gives added protection compared with presently known garments, or in cases where equivalent protection is provided, reduce the thickness of the layers of material.
  • Said flap extends downward ending in a tip 13 some way beyond the crotch 14, there becoming a tongue-shaped extension 15 whose curved outer 16 and inner 17 edge is included within the inner seam 18 of the left trouser leg 19.
  • the second opening flap 22 extends horizontally from the left hand side (S) to the right hand side (D) becoming superimposed over the flap 12.
  • Said flap 22 extends downward to form a tip 23 beyond the crotch 14 substantially at the same level as the tip 13 of flap 12, there becoming a tongue-shaped extension 25 whose curved outer 26 and inner 27 edge is included within the inner seam 28 of the left hand trouser leg 29.
  • the overalls 10 are closed with a double chest protection formed by the two overlying flaps 12,22.
  • Said closure is held firm by pairs of velcro strips, an upper pair 30,31 and a lower pair 32,33.
  • the upper pair has a horizontal strip 30 on the flap 12 and a vertical strip 31 on the flap 22.
  • the lower pair has a horizontal strip 32 on the flap 12 and a vertical strip 33 on the flap 22.
  • This crosswise fastening allows plenty of horizontal adaption by the vertical strips 31 and 33 along the horizontal strips 30 and 32, and the same adaption vertically by the horizontal strips 30 and 32 in relation to the vertical strips 31 and 33.
  • Another pair of velcro strips 34,35 are placed at the upper end of the underlying flap 12 and in the corresponding position inside the overlying flap 22.
  • Said pair of velcro strips strengthen adherence of said flap 12 to the wearer's body and improve the fastening arrangement as clearly appears from the figures.
  • the overalls 10 consist of pieces 40 and 41 respectively corresponding to the two longitudinal halves of the human body, each comprising half of the trunk and one trouser leg and also of the sleeves 42,43 and of the collar 44.
  • the two halves are joined down the back by the seam 45 and, inside the trouser legs, by seams 18 and 28.

  1. Vêtements de travail, combinaisons (10) et similaires avec ouverture sur le devant à deux pièces (12, 22) l'une en face de l'autre, lesquelles pièces (12, 22) s'étendent toutes deux sur la partie avant des vêtements (10) de telle façon que lorsque lesdits vêtements (10) une fois endossés sont fermés, les pièces (12, 22) se superposent sur presque toute la partie avant de la personne, assurant ainsi une double protection,
    Caractérisés par le fait qu'une pièce (12) de l'ouverture de la combinaison (10) s'étend horizontalement d'un côté de la combinaison (10) au côté opposé et inférieurement jusqu'à un point (13) à grande distance sous l'entrejambe (14) au moyen d'une languette (15) inférieure à peu près en forme de V dont la face interne (17) est rendue solidaire de la partie interne de la jambe (19) de la combinaison et par le fait que la deuxième pièce (22) de l'ouverture s'étend horizontalement en se superposant à la première pièce (12) et s'étend inférieurement jusqu'à un point (23) approximativement à la même hauteur que le premier (12) au moyen d'une languette (25) à peu près en forme de V dont la face interne (27) est rendue solidaire de la partie interne de la jambe (29) de la combinaison (10) de telle façon que se déterminent des forces tendant à fermer les deux pièces (12, 22) superposées par effet du mouvement croisé des jambes (19, 29).
  2. Vêtements conformes à la revendication 1)
    caractérisés par le fait que la languette (15, 25) à peu près en forme de V de la partie inférieure des pièces (12, 22) de l'ouverture, présente un côté (17, 27) essentiellement rectiligne qui coïncide avec la couture (18, 28) interne des jambes (19, 29) de la combinaison (10) et un côté (16, 26) qui, de la pointe du V se raccorde en arc avec les bords, essentiellement parallèles à l'axe longitudinal de la combinaison (10), des pièces (12, 22) en question.

  4. Vêtements conformes à la revendication 1)
    caractérisés par le fait que la fermeture est assurée par des paires (30-31, 32-33) d'éléments Velcro réciproquement disposés en croix de façon à parmettre à la fois une fermeture rapide et simple et un ample réglage de la position réciproque des pièces (12, 22) au moment de la fermeture.
  5. Vêtements conformes à la revendication 1),
    caractérisés par le fait que la fermeture est assurée par deux paires d'éléments Velcro (30-31, 32-33), réciproquement disposés en croix, un (31, 61) élément de la paire étant vertical et l'autre (30, 60) horizontal, de façon à permettre un ample réglage de la position réciproque des pièces (12, 22) aussi bien dans le sens horizontal pour la translation à l'horizontale de l'élément (31), vertical par rapport à la pièce opposée horizontale (30, 60) que dans le sens vertical pour la translation à la verticale de l'élément vertical (31) par rapport à l'élément horizontal (30).
