Abstract

The present invention relates to a sports garment making it possible to urinate without having to undress and ensure that it is comfortable for a sportsman, and in particular for a cyclist. The sports garment (10), particularly for a cyclist, comprises a front part (2) and a back part (3), and is characterized in that the front part (2) presents an horizontal opening for said cyclist to take out his penis so as to facilitate the cyclist's micturition. The opening is delimited by an external flap (11a) and an internal flap (11b) provided on the front part (2) and which overlap so that the opening remains closed without the help of any fastening mechanism.

Description

La présente invention concerne un vêtement de sport, en particulier pour un cycliste, comprenant une partie dorsale et une partie frontale, ladite partie frontale présentant une ouverture située sensiblement à la hauteur du pubis pour le passage du sexe dudit cycliste.The present invention relates to sports clothing, in particular for a cyclist, comprising a back part and a front part, said front part having an opening located substantially at the height of the pubis for the passage of the sex of said cyclist.

Un tel vêtement de sport peut être aussi bien une combinaison à jambes longues ou courtes ou ce qu'on appelle dans le domaine cycliste un cuissard, un caleçon ou un "combi". A l'heure actuelle, ces vêtements ne présentent pas d'ouverture permettant au sportif d'uriner. De ce fait, le sportif doit se déshabiller. Cela est particulièrement gênant pour le sportif, car il doit se contorsionner pour retirer son vêtement et perd donc du temps. De plus, le sportif se retrouvant déshabillé peut prendre froid.Such a sportswear can be either a long legged suit or short or what is called in the cycling field a shorts, underpants or a "Combi". At present, these clothes do not have an opening allowing the athlete to urinate. Therefore, the sportsman must undress. This is particularly annoying for the athlete, because he has to contort to remove his clothing and loses so time. In addition, the athlete who finds himself undressed can get cold.

On connaít dans d'autres domaines de l'habillement des vêtements présentant une braguette fermée par des boutons, des pressions ou une fermeture à glissière. De tels vêtements sont notamment décrits dans les publications US-A-2 352 128, DE-A-2 308 589 ou FR-A-2 738 997. De par la publication WO-A-95/02340, on connaít aussi des vêtements du style "body", pourvus d'une partie inférieure détachable et fixée à la partie supérieure du vêtement par des pressions ou une bande Velcro®.We know in other areas of clothing clothing with a fly closed with buttons, snaps or a zipper. Such clothes are described in particular in publications US-A-2 352 128, DE-A-2 308 589 or FR-A-2 738 997. From the publication WO-A-95/02340, we know also clothes of the "body" style, provided with a detachable lower part and attached to the upper part of the garment by snaps or Velcro® tape.

Pour une question de pudeur et de fonctionnalité, ces braguettes ou la partie inférieure détachable doivent obligatoirement comporter des moyens de fermeture.For a question of modesty and functionality, these fly or the part lower detachable must include closing means.

Or, la présence de ces moyens de fermeture est particulièrement gênante pour un vêtement destiné aux cyclistes. En effet, de tels moyens de fermeture, en particulier les pressions, représentent de grands risques de blessures lorsque le cycliste est assis sur son vélo. However, the presence of these closing means is particularly troublesome for a clothing for cyclists. Indeed, such closure means, in particular pressures represent a high risk of injury when the cyclist is seated on his bike.

D'autre part, les vêtements pour cyclistes sont à l'heure actuelle réalisés dans des tissus très élastiques, tels que le Lycra®. Du fait de leur élasticité, ces tissus sont difficiles à travailler. En conséquence, il n'est pas possible de prévoir une braguette verticale telle que décrite dans le brevet US-A-2 352 128 ou une braguette telle que décrite dans la demande de brevet français FR-A-2 738 997, car les pans de la braguette s'écarteraient de chaque côté.On the other hand, clothing for cyclists is currently made of very elastic fabrics, such as Lycra®. Due to their elasticity, these fabrics are difficult to work. Consequently, it is not possible to provide a vertical fly as described in patent US-A-2,352,128 or a fly as described in French patent application FR-A-2,738,997 , because the flaps of the fly would spread on each side.

Enfin, les systèmes de fermeture du type "body", tels que décrits dans la publication internationale WO-A-95/02340, ne peuvent pas être utilisés pour les vêtements pour cycliste car il ne serait alors pas possible de maintenir en place la peau de chamois, qui est présente obligatoirement sur ce type de vêtement pour le confort du cycliste. Ce système de fermeture ne serait également pas très commode à utiliser sur un vélo.Finally, body type closure systems, as described in international publication WO-A-95/02340, cannot be used for cyclist clothing because it would then not be possible to keep the skin in place chamois, which must be present on this type of clothing for the comfort of the cyclist. This closure system would also not be very convenient to use on a bicycle.

La présente invention vise à pallier ces inconvénients en proposant un vêtement de sport permettant d'uriner sans avoir à se déshabiller et restant confortable pour un sportif, et plus particulièrement pour un cycliste assis sur son vélo.The present invention aims to overcome these drawbacks by proposing a garment of sport allowing to urinate without having to undress and remaining comfortable for a sports, and more particularly for a cyclist seated on his bike.

Dans ce but, l'invention concerne un vêtement du genre indiqué en préambule, caractérisé en ce que l'ouverture est horizontale et en ce que la partie frontale comprend une patte extérieure et une patte intérieure se chevauchant pour délimiter ladite ouverture de manière à ce que ladite ouverture reste fermée sans l'aide d'un quelconque moyen de fermeture.To this end, the invention relates to a garment of the kind indicated in the preamble, characterized in that the opening is horizontal and in that the front part includes an outer leg and an overlapping inner leg to define said opening so that said opening remains closed without the aid of a any means of closure.

Les pattes extérieure et intérieure peuvent être prévues sensiblement sur toute la largeur de la partie frontale et être prises dans des coutures latérales entre les parties frontale et dorsale.The outer and inner legs can be provided substantially over the entire width of the front part and be caught in side seams between the parts frontal and dorsal.

D'une manière avantageuse, les pattes extérieure et intérieure sont assemblées à la partie frontale par des coutures suivant une ligne arrondie. Advantageously, the outer and inner legs are assembled to the front part by seams following a rounded line.

Les pattes extérieure et inférieure peuvent comporter des piqûres de maintien qui peuvent être obliques de manière avantageuse.The outer and lower tabs may have holding seams which can be advantageously oblique.

La présente invention et ses avantages apparaítront mieux dans la description suivante d'un exemple de réalisation, en référence aux dessins annexés, dans lesquels:

  • la figure 1 représente une vue de face d'un vêtement de sport selon la présente invention, et
  • la figure 2 représente une vue en coupe transversale de la figure 1.
The present invention and its advantages will appear better in the following description of an exemplary embodiment, with reference to the appended drawings, in which:
  • FIG. 1 represents a front view of a sports garment according to the present invention, and
  • FIG. 2 represents a cross-sectional view of FIG. 1.

En référence aux figures, le vêtement 10 de sport selon l'invention est un cuissard prévu pour un cycliste. Il est constitué d'une partie frontale 2 et d'une partie dorsale 3, les bords latéraux de ces parties étant reliés au moyen de deux bandes latérales 4. Le vêtement ou cuissard 10 comprend également des bretelles 5. D'une manière connue, il est réalisé dans une matière à base Lycra®, c'est-à-dire qui présente une certaine élasticité. Son entrejambe est garnie d'une peau de chamois 6 pour améliorer le confort de l'assise du cycliste.With reference to the figures, the sports garment 10 according to the invention is a shorts planned for a cyclist. It consists of a front part 2 and a back part 3, the lateral edges of these parts being connected by means of two lateral bands 4. The garment or shorts 10 also includes suspenders 5. In a known manner, it is made of a Lycra®-based material, that is to say which has a certain elasticity. Its crotch is trimmed with a chamois 6 to improve the comfort of the cyclist's seat.

Conformément à la présente invention, la partie frontale 2 du cuissard 10 se divise au-dessus de la peau de chamois 6 et sensiblement au niveau du pubis, en deux parties supérieure 2c et inférieure 2d, la partie supérieure 2c se terminant par une patte extérieure 11a et la partie inférieure 2d commençant par une patte intérieure 11b. Les pattes extérieure 11a et intérieure 11b se chevauchent et délimitent une ouverture horizontale 7 par laquelle le cycliste peut passer son sexe.According to the present invention, the front part 2 of the shorts 10 divides above the chamois 6 and substantially at the level of the pubis, in two upper part 2c and lower part 2d, the upper part 2c ending in a outer tab 11a and the lower part 2d starting with an inner tab 11b. The outer legs 11a and inner 11b overlap and define a horizontal opening 7 through which the cyclist can pass his sex.

Les pattes extérieure 11a et intérieure 11b s'étendent sur toute la largeur de la partie frontale 2 et leurs bords latéraux sont pris dans les coutures latérales 12 qui permettent d'assembler la partie frontale 2 aux bandes latérales 4. The outer legs 11a and inner 11b extend over the entire width of the part front 2 and their side edges are caught in the side seams 12 which used to assemble the front part 2 to the side bands 4.

Comme le montre plus précisément la figure 2, les pattes extérieure 11a et intérieure 11b sont formées en repliant vers l'intérieur le bord du tissu sur lui-même de manière à avoir une double épaisseur. L'extrémité repliée est fixée à la patte correspondante au moyen des coutures 13a et 13b permettant d'assembler respectivement les pattes extérieure 11a et intérieure 11b aux parties frontales supérieure 2c et inférieure 2d. Les coutures 13a et 13b sont effectuées selon une ligne arrondie de manière à prendre en compte l'élasticité de la matière, comme le Lycra®.As shown more precisely in Figure 2, the outer legs 11a and inner 11b are formed by folding inward the edge of the fabric on itself so to have a double thickness. The folded end is fixed to the corresponding tab by means of seams 13a and 13b making it possible to assemble the tabs respectively exterior 11a and interior 11b to the upper 2c and lower 2d front portions. The seams 13a and 13b are made in a rounded line so as to take take into account the elasticity of the material, like Lycra®.

Les pattes extérieure 11a et intérieure 11b sont également maintenues entre elles par deux piqûres de maintien obliques 14 afin de respecter l'élasticité du tissu utilisé. Ces piqûres de maintien 14 forment également un passage évasé facilitant l'introduction du sexe du cycliste.The outer legs 11a and inner 11b are also held together by two oblique holding stitches 14 in order to respect the elasticity of the fabric used. These holding pits 14 also form a flared passage facilitating insertion the gender of the cyclist.

Il est prévu également deux piqûres de maintien 15 disposées de manière oblique dans le sens contraire des piqûres 14. Ces piqûres 15 sont prévues pour éviter que le vent s'engouffre dans le cuissard.There are also two holding seams 15 arranged obliquely. in the opposite direction from the bites 14. These bites 15 are provided to prevent the wind rushes into the shorts.

Le vêtement de sport décrit ci-dessus offre au sportif l'avantage de pouvoir uriner au cours de son activité sportive sans avoir à se déshabiller. En effet, avec par exemple un cuissard traditionnel, il faut enlever les bretelles afin de baisser suffisamment le haut du vêtement pour pouvoir uriner. Avec le vêtement selon l'invention, il suffit que le sportif entrouvre l'ouverture 7 et qu'il passe son sexe dans cette ouverture 7 pour pouvoir uriner.The sportswear described above offers the athlete the advantage of being able to urinate at during his sporting activity without having to undress. Indeed, with for example a traditional shorts, it is necessary to remove the suspenders in order to lower the top of the garment to be able to urinate. With the garment according to the invention, it suffices that the athlete opens opening 7 and that he spends his sex in this opening 7 to be able to urinate.

De plus, l'ouverture 7 selon l'invention présente l'avantage de ne pas s'ouvrir involontairement grâce au chevauchement des pattes 11a, 11b et ne nécessite aucun moyen de fermeture. Il n'y a donc pas de risque de blesser le cycliste puisque les pattes extérieure 11a et intérieure 11b ne gênent pas le cycliste et ne diminuent pas son confort quand il est assis sur son vélo. In addition, the opening 7 according to the invention has the advantage of not opening involuntarily thanks to the overlap of the legs 11a, 11b and requires no closing means. There is therefore no risk of injuring the cyclist since the outer legs 11a and inner 11b do not obstruct the cyclist and do not decrease comfort when seated on his bike.

La description ci-dessus montre clairement que l'invention atteint tous les avantages recherchés.The above description clearly shows that the invention achieves all the advantages research.

La présente invention n'est pas limitée à l'exemple de réalisation décrit mais s'étend à toute modification et variante évidente pour un homme du métier. En particulier, l'invention peut s'appliquer également à d'autres types de vêtements de sport que le cuissard représenté, et notamment au caleçon, c'est-à-dire un cuissard à jambes longues, ou aux combinaisons à jambes courtes ou longues.The present invention is not limited to the embodiment described but extends to any modification and variant obvious to a person skilled in the art. In particular, the invention can also be applied to other types of sportswear than the shorts represented, and in particular in shorts, that is to say a shorts with legs long, or short or long legged suits.
