Description

Supported underwear

The present invention relates to a garment, in particular to a sports garment, a swimwear or a male pant for exercise (such as riding, horse racing) or for daily activities, which maintains the user's penis in an upright vertical position, thereby protecting the user from The genitals are protected from injury or discomfort, regulate temperature, and potentially prevent bladder leakage.

In general, traditional male underwear and sportswear can only cover and support the male external genitalia without properly considering the positioning and comfort of the male reproductive organs. The aforementioned clothing does not properly solve the problems faced by the rider and many other athletes or those who need to maintain the sitting posture for a long time. While the foregoing garments may be suitable for wearing in some everyday activities, for high impact sports, other identities that enhance user performance and comfort may be required. In addition, the crotch is particularly prone to heat and sweat in summer, which is especially a problem for those who need to maintain a sitting posture for a long time. Existing underpants do not help to lower the temperature in the crotch region for added comfort.

In particular, a comfortable garment must be able to maintain the penis vertical upright in a variety of activities. In addition, the conventional sports underwear is provided with a pad, a belt or a layer, and thus is inconvenient to use and difficult to produce. Furthermore, the liner and additional delamination will exacerbate the high temperature problems in the crotch region. The prices of these products are also relatively expensive and their structure is complex. Therefore, a supportable pant that is simple to use and manufacture has its needs.

Accordingly, the applicant conceived a novel and practical garment, especially for sports. Male sportswear or panties used (such as horse riding, horse racing or other activities). The present invention provides a simple way to achieve the desired function: maintaining the penis in a vertical position, providing comfort, reducing temperature, and avoiding the maintenance of sitting postures during periods of high impact sports (such as horse racing) or for long periods of time. hurt.

Applicant's invention proposes the use of a positioning strap to maintain the penis in an upward direction, which in one embodiment is an elastic band on the inner front surface of the garment. Preferably, the positioning strap is fixed with its end portion in a lateral direction, whereby the penis is vertically fixed between the positioning strap and the front side fabric of the undergarment during use. In an alternative embodiment, the locating strap is covered by a layer of cloth that helps prevent direct contact of the skin with the locating strap and allows the panty to be more comfortable to wear.

Moreover, one or more embodiments of the present invention also take into account the simplicity of the design of the garment and the ease of manufacture and use. Since the present invention has only one cloth layer for forming the body of the undergarment and a conventional waistband, the undergarments of the present invention can be manufactured in a manner similar to the conventional underpants. The primary improvement of the present invention is that a positioning strip located on the front inner surface of the garment will not substantially complicate the manufacture or use of the product.

More importantly, it should be noted that the term "panties" as referred to in the Summary of the Invention may encompass sportswear, swimwear, or various types of undergarments, including briefs, boxers, briefs, shorts, and the like. Similarly, for the purposes of the present invention, the positioning strap can be a variety of lengths, widths, and elastic straps as long as it provides a space for the user to traverse the penis and allows the penis to maintain the upward position.

Figure 5B is a cross-sectional view of the positioning belt shown in Figure 5A.

In this embodiment, the underpants 10 shown in FIG. 1 include at least one waistband 12 and a panty body 14 for fixing the garment around the waist of the user and covering the genitalia and groin outside the user. Department and buttocks. In addition, the panty body includes an inlet end 16 defined by the waistband 12 and a second leg opening 18 opposite the inlet end.

2 is a reverse "eversion" view of the undergarment 10 showing the internal structure of the positioning strap 20 in accordance with an embodiment of the present invention. As shown, the undergarment 10 incorporates a positioning strap 20 into the interior of the undergarment; in one embodiment, the positioning strap is an elastic band sewn to the inner face of the undergarment body 14. Preferably, the positioning strap 20 is coupled to the inner surface of the garment in a lateral direction across one of the central portions of the garment, thereby allowing the penis to pass through the positioning strap at a more comfortable height relative to the user. It is fixed by pointing up. As shown in Fig. 3, the positioning strap 20 is joined to the front inner surface of the undergarment 10 with its end edge 22, whereby the center of the positioning strap can be separated from the panty body to provide sufficient positioning for the user's penis. The positioning strap and the space between the panty body 14 are. In one embodiment, the positioning strap 20 is coupled thereto by sewing its end edge 22 to the front portion of the undergarment body 14, thereby positioning the strap in a lateral position; however, it can also Other means are fixed, such as adhesion or other bonding methods applied to the same location near the end edge 22.

In one or more embodiments, the positioning strap 20 has a width that is less than its length. In order to fix the penis and apply pressure on a sufficiently wide surface area to avoid discomfort, a specific width is required. However, the positioning band should not be too wide, otherwise it will be difficult to position the penis in the positioning band during use, and excess material will cause hot gas to accumulate. Figure 4 shows an alternative positioning strip 20' having a width that allows the positioning strip to be properly bonded to the body of the undergarment. A central portion 21' of the positioning strip 20' has a narrower width to reduce the amount of material covering the user's penis portion, thereby minimizing hot gas accumulation. It should be understood that other shapes or shapes of positioning may also be used to achieve the above objectives.

In some embodiments, the positioning strap 20 is comprised of an elastomeric material whereby the penis is positioned vertically without impeding restrictions on blood flow or sacrificing user comfort. The elastic material may be rubber, latex, Lycra or other elastic fabric suitable for providing some flexibility. The aforementioned materials may also be selected to be comfortable when in contact with the skin. The elastic material will allow the positioning strap 20 to be widely applied to male genitalia of various size ranges without changing the size of the positioning strap or adjusting the length of the positioning strap. However, it should be understood that in the present invention, an adjustable length positioning strap can also be used.

Figure 5A shows an alternative embodiment of the present invention in which the positioning strip 20 is covered with one or more sides of a cloth layer 24 to make the undergarment more comfortable to wear. As shown in FIG. 5B, in one or more embodiments, the cloth layer 24 covers both the front and the back of the positioning tape at the same time to avoid direct contact of the skin with the material of the positioning tape 20. Since the covered cloth layer can be selected to enhance skin comfort and can be positioned to contact the user's skin rather than the positioning tape material, the elastic material of the positioning tape can be selected in a wide range. In some embodiments, the cloth layer 24 is integrally formed with the surrounding cloth of the undergarment body 14; in other embodiments, the cloth layer 24 is formed as a separate cloth that is stitched or attached to the undergarment. . The cloth layer 24 can be used with the underwear body 14 The same fabric material, but can also be made of similar elastic fabric, which provides skin comfort when stretched.

One or more embodiments of the present invention are easy to manufacture and simple to use. In use, it can be used to maintain the penis in an upward position separate from the other portions of the male external genitalia and from the sides of the wearer's ankle. This enhances comfort and helps keep the ankles cool. It also helps prevent bladder leakage.

It is to be understood that the embodiments described herein are merely illustrative of the principles of the invention and are not intended to limit the invention. Accordingly, various modifications and changes may be made without departing from the spirit and scope of the invention.
