Definitions

  • the invention relates to an undergarment, in particular a Women's undergarment, according to the preamble of claim 1.
  • Underwear items traditionally consist of a plurality different cuts of textile material, usually one at least in one Towards elastic knitted fabrics.
  • the cuts require their Composition of a variety of work steps that are time and wage consuming are and often elude rational industrial working methods; this applies particularly to connecting seams. These do not only require one yourself time-consuming sewing process along the connection points, but also the use of a connecting medium, namely a sewing thread. Seams can also cause pressure marks and provide elastic materials often impair the elastic behavior. As a result, the adaptability of the item of clothing in question suffers the particular body shape, especially if moving continuously Form changes to the human body result in the garment should follow.
  • Bras are undergarments that are made with regard to their purpose for covering, supporting and shaping the female breast in manufactured in many different sizes and shapes and kept in stock Need to become. Because of their spatial shape, adapted to this provision conditionally, they traditionally consist of a plurality of different parts textile material, such as side panels, bust cups, carrier tapes, edging or Trim straps, back closure, etc. These parts in particular need their Composition of a variety of work steps that are time and wage consuming are and largely elude rational industrial working methods.
  • a bra has become known, the under Avoidance of any sewing work, i.e. without sewing threads or similar Lanyard, can be produced in which only selectively, ie by Pressing, welding or similar lifting operations for connecting the individual parts or for assembly (EP 0 809 945 A2). This is achieved in that both the basic material, as well as partial reinforcement parts from a textile, at least partially material containing thermoplastic fusible fibers.
  • the invention is based on the object Underwear, in particular a women's underwear, with Edge reinforcements in a good fit and with high wearing comfort easier and To be able to manufacture more economically than before.
  • the main advantage of the invention is that the method of manufacture of an undergarment provided with edge reinforcements is simplified.
  • edge reinforcements can open at the same time Cutting edges of the blanks are secured, in the simplest case by Turning over the edge areas of the blanks themselves or by applying one Binding tape, possibly also on the folded edge and through a folded ribbon.
  • the reinforcements can get in the way simple mechanical work processes applied and with the base material of the undergarment can be connected without it along the reinforcing edges along moving operations such as one Sewing process, required.
  • the integrated or on the materials of the blanks or reinforcing parts the surface of the material applied ensures a contact at the contact surfaces full-surface fastening between the parts. Strains and deformations of the finished garment are not affected by the connection because transfer any deformation in the area of the edge to the item of clothing and vice versa.
  • the full-surface connection also creates a special good reinforcement of the edge area of the garment, which is why the stability for example, a bra made in this way is flawless. This reinforcement also prevents fraying of the garment because the connection also the thread structure of the cut parts itself holds together.
  • the so achieved Connection is soft; it does not cause pressure points when worn and wears not on.
  • the invention as set forth, is not limited to any particular type of Underwear item is set, is first using the example of a Bra explained.
  • 1 is a design according to the invention Bra shown from the inside.
  • the bra 1 consists of two side parts 2 and 3, which are mirror images of a front central axis M are trained and arranged.
  • the side parts 2 and 3 each include through Molded bust cups 4 and 5.
  • the side parts 2 and 3 are in Area of the front central axis M connected to one another in an area 6.
  • the side parts 2 and 3 each from a layer 13 or 14 covering their entire surface from one textile, to a certain extent stretchable base material.
  • the side parts 2 and 3 have, following the anatomy and function, approximately triangular shape; the base material 13, 14 is at the free edges reinforced.
  • edges should be of the same design are shown in FIGS. 2 to 5 different embodiments shown.
  • the representations show an enlarged cross section along the line II-II in Fig. 1, basically apply but also for the reinforcements on other edges of the bra and for Reinforced edges of other underwear for women and Men's.
  • the Cutting the base material 13 for a side part 2 is something on all sides chosen larger than it corresponds to the final outline shape of the side part 2.
  • the edge 21 projecting beyond the final outline of side part 2 is then turned around the outer edge 22 and in a connecting zone 23 in essentially connected flat to the base material 13 of the side part 2.
  • This Connection can be a glue, either using an adhesive, e.g. sprayed on, or laminated in the form of an adhesive film or else be achieved by fusing thermoplastic fibers that the Base material 13 are integrated.
  • the top bra In the course of manufacturing such a bra, the top bra first Edges 17 and 19 of the side parts 2 and 3 attached in the manner described, then the side parts 2 and 3 in the front central axis M with each other connected and finally applied the edge reinforcement 16 at the bottom. But it is also possible to start with the side parts 2 and 3 each for themselves to be completed and only then the connection in the front middle area 6 to make.
  • the edge reinforcement 18 is connected to the base material in a connecting zone 25.
  • This Connection zone can basically be designed in the same way as that Connection zone 23 between the envelope 21 and the base material 13 2, i.e. it can be a bond or a fusion thermoplastic fibers by applying pressure and / or heat is achieved.
  • connection zone 25 there is also a binding tape 24 to apply.
  • the connecting zone 25 can in turn be designed in the same way be like the connection zone 23 between the envelope 21 and the Base material 13.
  • FIG. 5 Another way to attach the open cutting edge of the Case of the final outline corresponding cut for a side part 2 is indicated in Fig. 5.
  • the edge is fastened by a trim band 26, which around its longitudinal central axis is folded and its legs 26a, 26b now open rest on the top and bottom of the base material 13.
  • This too Legs 26a, 26b of the trim band can be done in basically the same way in connection zones 27 with the base material 13 as in In connection with Fig. 2 has been described.
  • a tape can be used on the side facing the base material has floating warp threads made of meltable material.
  • This Warp threads can be used in the manufacture of the ribbon by weaving at intervals are tied from each other by weft threads in the belt body. Since the Warp threads between the individual weft entries with a a correspondingly long section of thread runs on the belt surface there a covering of floating sections of warp threads, which under the influence of pressure and heat creates a connection with the base material.
  • the tape could also be on provide a base layer on the side facing the base material be on which a granulate from one under the action of pressure and heat meltable material is applied. After the print and Heat treatment leads to a melt liquefaction of the granules again a full-surface reinforcement of the edge area of the garment causes and maintains its elasticity.
  • an adhesive film consisting of at least two could also be placed on the tape Adhesive components are applied that are different from each other Have melting temperature.
  • the meltability of the components should should be chosen so that the first is the second heat treatment Adhesive component is not yet active.
  • the adhesive film can first applied the tape and there by applying pressure and heat be connected to this.
  • the intermediate product thus obtained is then on the desired place on the garment and again a pressure and However, heat treatment is now carried out at a higher temperature. This also activates the second adhesive component and ensures that desired connection of the band with the item of clothing.
  • Fig. 6 shows such a slip 30, which consists of a front part 31 and Back part 32 is formed in the waist area to form a waistband 33 in Butt joints 34 are interconnected; another butt joint can be located in crotch area 35.
  • the cuts for the slip 30 are not only in the area of Waistband 33 provided with an edge reinforcement 36, but also along the edges 37 of the leg openings 38. These edge reinforcements can basically be formed in the same way as above with reference to FIG. 2 to 5 described.
