Definitions

  • This invention concerns a device for adjusting both the width as well as the length of a garment, such coats, jackets and long jackets as well as trousers, intended for leisure or everyday use.
  • coats, jackets and long jackets for example is known among the garments commonly used in the leisure sector and in general in sports clothing where the primary aim of the garment, particularly in our climate, is to serve as exterior clothing to protect the human body from the climatic conditions, in addition to being aesthetically agreeable and appealing.
  • the motorcyclist using a coat, jacket or long jacket must also consider the fact that s/he is not always mounted on the motorbike itself, thus a more versatile garment is required that in particular can also be used when walking around normally during stops. Therefore, the garment that before was optimal for riding a motorbike thanks to its adherent characteristic, during the stop, becomes inconvenient, uncomfortable and significantly limits movement.
  • a garment such as trousers.
  • Some types can be worn over other clothes while others are in direct contact with the skin, but they must always remain closely fitted during the riding of the motorbike and then must be wider during stops, thus favouring a free walking movement.
  • a first device consists of the conventional elastic band, which at present is mainly placed in correspondence with the waist, on the back-front side of the body and on the interior of the garment, introduced along a waistband that is slightly pretensioned and fixed at two ends to the garment itself.
  • the elastic band, elastic strip or elastic tape can simply be sewn onto the internal side of the fabric of the garment in areas corresponding to those mentioned previously, prior to a localised curling of the fabric that facilitates extension.
  • some sports garments dispose of a cord, sometimes also elasticised, that is also fixed at the ends that lengthwise, at one or both ends, has a blocking body, namely a type of stop that functions manually by exerting pressure and that allows the tension of the cord to be adjusted, thus favouring the greater or lesser tightening of the garment along the circumference and exclusively in correspondence with the waist.
  • GB2163341 Robot et al.
  • Us 5341514 Us 5341514
  • Both are based on the principle providing an additional fastener or zip with respect to that of the conventional opening.
  • Said fasteners of which there are two or more in parallel, are positioned vertically and hold two opposite hems of the front panel of the fabric that forms the garment. The release of said fasteners allows a portion of the fabric to be extended without a continuity solution, that in the closing position remains folded over itself on the interior of the garment and below the related fastener.
  • WO2006021696 proposes a closing solution capable of bringing together two opposite hems, in general, of a garment that is substantially open, that is to say that apparently presents no fabric in correspondence with the closure.
  • the device is made up of a strap, fixed on one side along the edge of the first hem of the fabric while being free on the other side, so that it may be introduced into the interior of a corresponding buckle and also turned to the exterior and then brought back to the first end of the buckle to be secured by means of overlapping, said device being provided with reciprocal holding means.
  • the buckle is integrated in such a way that it is concealed in the second hem of fabric that is to be brought back.
  • the solution suggested by W00135774 (Carini ) is similar to that described above and is apparently indicated for sleeveless garments.
  • FR262274 suggests applying a solution similar to that described in GB2163341 (Robson et al. ) in correspondence with the sides of a garment for women.
  • the device described in addition to being positioned vertically in a way similar to the solutions cited above, the device described is also to be used at the end part of trousers, horizontally positioned with a closed loop, thus favouring the increase or decrease of the leg length of the trousers.
  • FR2698764 (Fabregue ) describes a sleeveless garment that provides, in correspondence with the sides, a vertically removable tape-like portion that is joined along the vertical edges to the fabric of the sleeveless garment by means of fasteners. Once the vertical part has been removed it is possible to connect the two hems of the opposing fabric, thus narrowing the circumference of the sleeveless garment.
  • FR2698764 (Fabregue ) would be an uncomfortable solution, either due to the fact that the part is removable, therefore there is a practical difficulty relating to where to leave the removed parts or bands, or due to the fact that the conditions common to the previous solutions remain, namely the impossibility of adjusting the width of the garment to an intermediate position between the close-fitting version and the wide version.
  • a first aim is to obtain an device for adjusting the width of a garment that is capable of obtaining an optimum adjustment in terms of a shape that adheres to or is fitted very closely to the body, uniformly extended and adapting to the anatomical profile of the user's body.
  • a second aim is to allow intermediate adjustments comprised between a maximum width position of the garment and a position of maximum adherence of the garment.
  • a third aim is to allow a faster and more convenient adjustment that is comfortable to carry out due to the fact that only one action manoeuvre is required, however it can still be carried out immediately with an effectiveness related to uniform tightening and loosening in correspondence with both sides.
  • the object of the invention is an adjustment device 1, capable of conferring a greater or smaller width on a garment 10, (see Figure 1 ) such as a coat, jacket, long jacket or even trousers, by modifying its circumference by bringing together, or vice-versa allowing the extension, of at least two parts 100a, 100b positioned opposite each other and almost parallel, of the fabric panel relative to the sides, respectively the right 100 and the left 110, in correspondence with which said adjustment device 1 is applied.
  • a garment 10 see Figure 1
  • a garment 10 such as a coat, jacket, long jacket or even trousers
  • the adjustment device 1 (see the example in Figure 2 ) consists of an elastic-type cord 2, or even a tape, that in this case, is applied without a continuity solution, to a jacket 10 in a position that corresponds to both panels of the sides, respectively the right 100 and the left 110 encircling the back part of the jacket 10 at waist height Figure (1 and 4 ).
  • a first end 20 of the elastic cord 2 ( Figure 3 ) is fixed upstream by means of a rivet 3, at the top of the side of the panel 100 of the jacket 10, in such a way that the elastic cord 2 extends along the vertical axis of the side of the panel 100 in a zigzag path between the two parallel portions of fabric 100a, 100b.
  • the second end 21 is fixed by means of a rivet 4 at the top of the side panel 110 of the jacket 1, in such a way that also in this case, the elastic cord 2 extends along the vertical axis of the side panel 110, also in a zigzag path.
  • the path of the elastic cord 2, in correspondence with each side panel 100 and 110, is defined by two opposite rows of connecting element 5 and 6, in the form of pulleys, arranged in a staggered way in almost parallel and aligned rows, each being steadily joined to the fabric of the jacket 10 along an approximately vertical axis with respect to the side panel 100 and 110 or to the sides of the latter in correspondence with the fabric portions 100a and 100b.
  • connecting elements 5 and 6 serve to constitute a fixed point around which the elastic cord 2 is free to slide while still remaining connected, thus preventing the latter from escaping while working or at rest.
  • the elastic cord 2 on the lower part of the side panel 100 and 110 downstream of the zigzag path is threaded through a hole 7, 8 made externally, in correspondence with the fabric of the jacket 10, approximately at waist height and running along a short almost horizontal section on the back part of the jacket 10 between the lining and the outer fabric of said jacket 10.
  • a hole 7, 8 made externally, in correspondence with the fabric of the jacket 10, approximately at waist height and running along a short almost horizontal section on the back part of the jacket 10 between the lining and the outer fabric of said jacket 10.
  • the cord 2 exits from at least one exit 9, said cord having a slotted shape 22 and being of sufficient size to be comfortably gripped by the user in order to exert traction.
  • Said slotted shape 22 of the elastic cord 2, that can be held by a safety tape 23, passes through a mechanical stop body 11.
  • the mechanical stop 11 consists of a perforated metal or plastic body, through which the slotted shape 22 of the elastic cord 2 passes and against which, in correspondence with the elastic cord portions 22 confined within the hole of the mechanical stop 11, a pressure element stressed by an elastic spring that contrasts the action exerted on the button pushes perpendicularly.
  • the greater or lesser traction of the slotted shape 22 ( Figure 4 ) of the elastic cord allows the cord 2, extended along the zigzag path of the side panel 100 and 110, to be tightened or vice-versa loosened in such a way that the fabric portions 100a, 100b to which the connecting elements 5 and 6 are anchored, are brought together by creating a sort of internal fold in the form of bellows, or vice-versa due to the release of the elastic cord 2 and the successive extension of the fabric, namely moving away to return to a wide jacket position 10.
  • the adjustment device 1 described above is also divided into two different units, one for each side panel 100 and 110 of the jacket 10.
  • each side panel 100 and 110 of the jacket 10 only one of the two ends 20 and 21 of the cord 2 is anchored to the side panel 100 and 110, respectively that corresponding to the upper end 20, while the lower end is introduced from the exterior through a hole towards the interior of the jacket 10, thus passing through it, to exit from the lining side, with one end provided with a convenient grip passing through a single mechanical stop 11.
  • the tightening or the release of said second free end of the cord 2 produces the same narrowing or widening effect as described previously.
  • the adjustment device 1, with an elastic cord 2 with a zigzag path can also be applied along the vertical or the horizontal axis of the jacket, but also in different areas of the side panel 100 and 110 or in conjunction with different areas, such as for example, the back part of the jacket 10 itself, as well as along parts that can involve the sleeves, such as for example the forearm area.
  • the adjustment device 1 can be used in a garment other than a jacket 10, such as for example along the sides of a pair of trousers.
  • the adjustment device 1 with its characteristic zigzag path can extend along both the vertical as well as the horizontal axis, in the latter case to adjust the length of the garment 10.
