Description

[Detailed Description of the Invention] "Industrial Application Field" The present invention relates to a core material for clothing that is applied to areas that are prone to wrinkles, such as brassieres and girdles.

"Conventional technology" For example, when wearing a bra or girdle,
In these belt portions, the fabric is stretched in the horizontal direction, so horizontal wrinkles are likely to occur due to sagging in the vertical direction. Such wrinkles give an impression of sagging skin, which is unfavorable in terms of appearance. Furthermore, the wrinkles described above impair the fit of the underwear, making it less comfortable to wear.

For this reason, it is known that a relatively elongated core material is attached vertically to the belt portion of a brassiere or girdle to prevent vertical sagging and prevent the generation of wrinkles as described above.

Such core materials include, for example, 15th to 17th core materials.
The one shown in the figure is used.

The core material 11 shown in FIG. 15 is a so-called coil bone. A metal coil 12 is flattened into an elongated plate shape, and metal caps 13 are attached to both ends of the coil 12. The cap 13 is crimped onto the cap 13.

The core material 14 shown in FIG. 16 is composed of an elongated thin plate 15 made of synthetic resin and having appropriate elasticity.

The core material 16 shown in FIG. 17 is formed into a plate shape by sandwiching a linear metal wire 17 having appropriate elasticity between two thin sheets 18 made of paper, cloth, etc. ing.

These core materials 11, 14, and 16 have in common that they all have appropriate elasticity and are in the shape of an elongated plate with a certain width.

``Problem to be solved by the invention'' However, since the core material 11 shown in FIG. Not suitable for clothing that requires In addition, it is easy to rust due to washing etc. due to the use of ordinary metal.
If you bend it too hard, it will deform or break.

Further, the core material 14 shown in FIG. 16 is difficult to bend in the width direction of the board, cannot follow the complicated expansion and contraction of fabrics such as underwear, and does not provide a snug fit.

Furthermore, the core material 16 shown in FIG. 17 has a width by sandwiching a linear metal wire 17 between two thin sheets 18 made of paper, cloth, etc.
Since the wire rod 17 is straight, the sheet 18 is easily twisted. Moreover, there is a possibility that the end portion of the wire rod 17 may break through the sheet 18 and protrude.

Therefore, the purpose of this invention is to have a light weight and relatively wide width, to follow the complicated expansion and contraction of fabrics such as underwear, to eliminate the risk of the ends of the wire protruding, and to provide a light and comfortable wearable material. To provide a core material for clothing that provides a comfortable feel.

"Means for Solving the Problems" In order to achieve the above object, the core material for clothing of the present invention is made by bending a single wire made of a shape memory alloy in a plane, and connecting both ends of the wire with fasteners. It is characterized by being connected and integrated.

"Function" According to the core material for clothing of the present invention, since a single wire is bent in a plane, it is possible to obtain a core material that is light in weight and has a wide width. Furthermore, since both ends of the wire rod are connected and integrated with the fastener, there is no fear that the end portions of the wire rod will protrude, and the core material is prevented from twisting, etc., thereby improving flatness. Furthermore, the bent wire can follow the complicated expansion and contraction of fabrics such as underwear. In addition, since the wire is made of a shape memory alloy, it can provide soft elasticity due to superelasticity. Therefore, when applied to clothing such as underwear, it can provide a light and snug feeling when worn.

"Example" FIGS. 1 and 2 show an example of a core material for clothing according to the present invention.

This core material 21 for clothing is made by bending the middle part of a single wire 22 made of a shape memory alloy into a U-shape, and further bending both ends 22a, 22b inward into an L-shape. 22b are connected by a fastener 23 and are integrated. In this case, the wire 22
is bent along one plane, thereby providing flatness in the width direction.

3 to 6 show different examples of the above-mentioned attachment structure of the fastener 23.

In the example shown in FIG. 3, a pair of flat chips 23a and 23b made of synthetic resin are used to
22b and chips 23a, 2 using ultrasonic waves etc.
3b is welded to form the fastener 23.

The example shown in FIG. 4 is a tube 23 made of synthetic resin.
The fastener 23 is formed by inserting the ends 22a and 22b of the wire 22 into the tube 23c and crushing the tube 23c by hot pressing.

In the example shown in FIG. 5, the ends 22a, 2 of the wire 22 are
The fastener 23 is formed by dipping 2b into a thermosetting resin 23d and curing the thermosetting resin 23d.

In the example shown in FIG. 6, the ends 22a, 2 of the wire 22 are
2b between thin metal plates 23e, and
The fastener 23 is formed by pressing e.

In this way, the fastener 23 is appropriately formed of synthetic resin, metal plate, etc., and has a flat shape along the plane where the wire rod 22 is bent.
The L-shaped bent ends 22a and 22b are regulated to the above-mentioned plane to prevent the wire 22 from twisting.

FIG. 7 shows an example in which this clothing core material 21 is applied to a brassiere.

The bra 31 has left and right cups 32, 32.
It consists of hanging cords 33, 33 connected to the upper parts of these cups 32, 32, and bands 34, 34 connected to both sides of the cups 32, 32.

Arc-shaped wire rods 35, 35 made of shape memory alloy or the like are sewn into the lower edges of the cups 32, 32 to support the lower part of the bust and adjust its shape.

The core material 21 for clothing of the present invention has a cup 3.
2 and 32 and the side portions B of the bands 34 and 34, respectively. In this case, the core material 21 has the fastener 23 facing downward, and the wire material 22
It is arranged so that it is vertically facing upwards.

When wearing the bra 31, the band 34,
34, the fabric is stretched in the transverse direction. However, since the tension force that pulls the fabric in the vertical direction does not act much, horizontal wrinkles that are sagging in the vertical direction are likely to be formed at the intermediate connecting portion A of the cups 32, 32 and the side portions B of the bands 34, 34.

In this bra 31, the core material 2 is attached to the above part.
1 is arranged vertically, so the fabric is prevented from sagging in the vertical direction and horizontal wrinkles do not occur. As a result, it looks good when worn and provides a snug fit.

In addition, since the core material 21 is formed by bending the wire material 21 made of a shape memory alloy into a U-shape, it deforms with soft elasticity against complicated elongation or displacement of the fabric, and prevents foreign particles from forming. It can provide a natural wearing feeling without feeling.

FIG. 8 shows another embodiment of the core material for clothing according to the present invention.

This core material 24 for clothing is made by bending a single wire 22 made of a shape memory alloy into a diamond shape, aligning both ends 22a and 22b substantially parallel, and then further bending the tip inward into an L-shape. Both ends 22a, 22
b are connected by a fastener 23 and integrated.

According to this core material 24, by bending the wire material 22 into a diamond shape, the spread in the width direction is increased, and the tensile effect of the core material 24 on the fabric can be brought about over a wider area.

In addition, in this invention, the bending shape of the wire 22 can be made into various shapes, such as a loop shape and a triangular shape, depending on the application location.

FIG. 9 shows an example in which the core material for clothing of the present invention is applied to a girdle.

In this example, the waist portion C of the girdle 41
A plurality of core materials 21 shown in FIGS. 1 and 2 are sewn in at predetermined intervals. The core material 21 is
They are arranged vertically with the fasteners 23 facing upward and the wire rods 22 facing downward.

Further, a core material 24 shown in FIG. 8 is sewn into the lower abdomen D of the girdle 41. The core material 24 is arranged with the fastener 23 facing upward and the wire rod 22 facing downward, so that the diamond-shaped bent portion of the wire rod 22 surrounds the lower abdomen D.

When wearing girdle 41, waist part C
The fabric is stretched in the horizontal direction, but the tension that pulls the fabric in the vertical direction does not act much, so horizontal wrinkles that sag in the vertical direction are likely to form. However, by sewing the core material 21 into the waist portion C as described above, the fabric can be stretched in the longitudinal direction and horizontal wrinkles can be prevented from occurring.

Furthermore, since the lower abdomen D is a place where fabric gathers, wrinkles are likely to form, but by sewing the core material 24 in as described above, the fabric can be pulled in the horizontal and vertical directions to prevent wrinkles from forming. can.

10 and 11 show still another embodiment of the core material for clothing according to the present invention.

This core material 25 is made by bending a single wire 22 made of a shape memory alloy into a U-shape, as in the embodiment shown in FIGS.
a and 22b are connected by a fastener 23 and are integrated. However, in this embodiment, a square wire is used as the wire 22, and the ends 22a and 22b are fixed by a fastener 23 while extending in parallel.

In this way, when the wire 22 is made of a square wire, twisting of the wire 22 can be prevented without bending the ends of the ends 22a and 22b into an L-shape.

12, 13 and 14 show still another embodiment of the core material for clothing according to the present invention.

Similar to the embodiment shown in FIGS. 1 and 2, this core material 26 is made by bending the middle part of a single wire 22 made of a shape memory alloy into a U-shape, and forming both end parts 22a and 22b. is further bent inward into an L-shape, and both ends 22a and 22b are connected with a fastener 23 and integrated. However, in this embodiment, the fastener 23 is made of synthetic resin, and its end portion 23f is formed into a thin tongue shape.

As shown in FIG. 14, this core material 26 is easily attached to the fabric of the clothing by sewing the thin tongue-shaped end 23f of the fastener 23 together with the fabric of the clothing as shown by the imaginary line in the figure. can be fixed to.

``Effects of the invention'' As explained above, according to the invention, a single wire made of shape memory alloy is bent in a plane and both ends are connected and integrated with fasteners, which makes it lightweight and wide. A wide core material can be obtained, there is no risk of the end of the wire protruding, it can follow the complicated expansion and contraction of fabrics such as underwear, and the superelasticity of the shape memory alloy gives it soft elasticity.
