Abstract

The invention relates to a belt with a zipper half for reversible connection to a garment.

Description

The invention relates to a belt.

Belts are known in principle and are used to improve the fit of a garment.

Two-piece dresses, eg Dirndl, are out DE 20 2017 100 988 U1 known. With regard to the feasibility and possible configurations of the zip fastener, reference is made to this and the content is included in this application.

In DE 20 2017 100 988 U1 describes a dirndl with an upper part and a lower part. A zipper for reversibly connecting the upper part to the lower part is provided between the upper part and the lower part.

For example, any upper part can be combined with any lower part.

The disadvantage of this is that the bottom can't be worn without the top because the zipper is visible, which would normally be covered by the top.

It is therefore an object of the invention to provide a belt and/or a system which avoids these disadvantages.

This problem is solved by the subject matter of the independent claims.

According to the invention, the belt has a zipper half for reversible connection to an article of clothing.

A zipper has two halves that can be joined together. Each half of the zipper has cramps, i.e. small teeth. These can be made of metal and/or plastic, for example. The staples can be hooked together and/or detached from one another using a slider.

The belt can be connected via the zipper half, which is arranged on the belt, to another zipper half, which is arranged on the garment. In this way, the belt can cover the zipper half arranged on the garment, which is advantageous from an optical point of view. In addition, the belt cannot slip relative to the garment.

For example, the belt has exactly one zipper half. Alternatively, several zipper halves could also be provided.

Preferably, the zipper half is located on the inside of the belt. The zipper half is therefore not visible from the outside. Alternatively, the zipper half can also be arranged on the outside of the belt.

For example, the zip half, preferably a strip of the zip half, can be sewn to the belt. This enables a secure hold on the belt.

For example, the band can be at least partially covered by the belt material and/or sewn into the belt material, which is advantageous from an optical point of view.

For example, the belt may have a conventional locking mechanism. For example, the belt can be opened and/or closed via one or more hooks, eyelets and/or button(s). A Velcro fastener is also conceivable in principle. Furthermore, the closure mechanism can have a clasp, e.g., a decorative clasp, and/or at least one strap.

Further developments of the invention can also be found in the dependent claims, the description and the accompanying drawings.

According to one embodiment, the zipper half extends in the longitudinal direction of the belt. The length of the zipper half is at least 50%, 60%, 70%, 80% or 90% of the length of the belt.

Almost the entire length of the belt can be provided with the zipper half. Preferentially exactly one continuous zipper half is provided.

The belt is thus suitable for attachment to another half of the zip fastener that extends around the full circumference of the garment.

According to a further embodiment, the zipper half has a slider. The other zipper half of the garment therefore need not include a slider.

The slider can have a slider handle for opening and/or closing the zipper.

According to a further embodiment, the belt is designed as a traditional costume belt.

The belt can therefore be worn on a traditional outfit.

For example, the belt can include or consist of a textile material.

According to a further embodiment, the belt has a clasp, preferably a decorative clasp.

For example, the clasp can include or consist of a metal and/or plastic material.

For example, the clasp may comprise a brooch.

The belt is therefore suitable as an accessory, for example for a traditional outfit.

As an alternative or in addition, the belt can also have one or more bands for fastening and/or for decoration. The ribbons can be tied into an apron bow, for example.

According to a further embodiment, the item of clothing is designed as a lower part for at least partially covering a human lower body.

Alternatively, the belt can be connected to an upper part for at least partially covering a human upper body, e.g. a blouse. The blouse can e.g. form part of a dirndl.

According to a further embodiment, the garment is in the form of a skirt or trousers.

The skirt can e.g. form part of a dirndl.

A zip-half of the skirt or trousers, which for example can be connected to a zip-half of the top, can thus also be connected to the zip-half of the belt. In this way, the skirt or pants can be combined with the belt and therefore worn without a top.

The invention relates to the use of a belt according to the invention for reversible connection to an item of clothing, e.g. a lower part for at least partially covering a human lower body.

Finally, the invention relates to a system with a belt according to the invention and a piece of clothing with an additional zipper half.

The other zipper half preferably extends around the garment in the region of the waistband.

The length of the other half of the zipper can be at least 50%, 60%, 70%, 80% or 90% of the circumference of the garment.

The other zipper half can be provided on the outside of the garment. This allows for easy attachment of the belt. Alternatively, the additional zipper half can be arranged on the inside of the garment.

According to one embodiment, the further zipper half of the garment is designed to complement the zipper half of the belt.

The belt can therefore be attached to and/or detached from the garment in a simple manner.

The variability of two-piece garments is further increased by the belt, since, for example, a bottom can be combined with the belt - and without a top.

All of the aspects, embodiments and features of the invention described here can be combined with one another, preferably also detached from the specific configuration in the context of which they are mentioned. Preferably, all subject matter of the dependent claims can be combined with each other and with each subject matter of the independent claims.

The invention is described below by way of example with reference to the drawings. Show it:

• 1 a schematic interior view of an embodiment of a belt according to the invention, and
• 2 a schematic external view of the belt according to FIG 1 .

First, it should be noted that the illustrated embodiments are purely exemplary in nature. Individual features can be implemented not only in the combination shown, but also individually or in other technically sensible combinations.

If a figure contains a reference number that is not explained in the directly associated descriptive text, reference is made to the corresponding preceding or following statements in the description of the figures. The same reference numbers are used for the same or comparable components in the figures and these are not explained again.

1 shows a belt with a zipper half 10 for reversible connection to a garment.

The zipper half 10 includes a tape 12 with staples 14.

The zipper half 10 also has a box part 16 , an end part 18 and a slider 20 with a slider handle 22 .

The slider 20 can be used to create a connection with another zipper half (not shown) of an item of clothing.

The belt can optionally have a clasp 24, which can also be found in 2 is shown. The clasp 24 forms a locking mechanism. Furthermore, the clasp 24 can ensure an attractive appearance, for example.

The locking mechanism may optionally also or alternatively include buttons 26. This allows the belt to be closed additionally. In addition, an alternative locking mechanism, e.g. by means of hooks, eyelets and/or straps, is also conceivable.
