Definitions

  • Connecting socks with, for example, a safety pin has the disadvantage of the pin coming open during washing or drying, subjecting the person grabbing a bunch of the socks to potentially being stuck by the open pin.
  • connecting with a pin or other means that are not intended to remain on the articles of clothing before and after storage or washing requires storing and finding the connecting means when storage and washing of the clothing are desired.
  • a pin or similar connecting means takes significant time to put onto and take off of the articles of clothing.
  • Connecting articles of clothing by attaching a snap to the articles has the disadvantage of requiring a male/female-type match to connect the clothing and has the disadvantage of requiring pulling on the clothing to release the snapping mechanism.
  • a suction cup can be substantially permanently affixed to the first sock and the suction-retentive member is substantially permanently affixed to the second sock. Likewise, it can be more removably affixed. At least one of the suction cup and the suction-retentive member include an adhesive material that affixes at least one of the suction cup and suction-retentive member to at least one of the first and second socks respectively.
  • the first suction-based component can comprise a suction cup and the second suction-based component can have a substantially flat surface against which the suction cup can be forced to connect the first and second socks.
  • FIG. 1A is a perspective view of one embodiment of the present invention having an unconnected pair of socks with each sock having an affixed suction cup.
  • FIG. 1B is a perspective view of the embodiment of FIG. 1A with the socks connected by the suction cups.
  • FIG. 2A is a perspective view of another embodiment of the present invention having an unconnected pair of socks with one sock having an affixed suction cup and the other sock having an affixed substantially flat, suction-retentive element.
  • FIG. 2B is a perspective view of the embodiment of FIG. 2A with the socks connected by the suction cup and suction-retentive element.
  • FIG. 3A is a side perspective view of an embodiment of the suction cup shown in FIGS. 1A, 1B , 2A, and 2B .
  • FIG. 3B is a front view of an embodiment of the suction cup shown in FIG. 3A .
  • FIG. 4A is a front view of an embodiment of the suction-retentive element shown in FIGS. 2A and 2B .
  • the present invention involves sets of articles of clothing, such as socks or stockings, that are connected using suction-based components that, when engaged, provide a suction-connecting force.
  • the most common sock design within the scope of the present invention is a sock having an open top end and a closed bottom end, but the present invention is not limited to that design or type of socks.
  • Other designs or types of socks also within the scope of the present invention include, but not limited to, socks used by baseball or other sports players having a bottom end partially closed by a crossing piece or strap-like element, sometimes referred to as a stirrup sock, and a sock having both ends open, often worn between the ankle and knee to keep the calf muscle warm by persons exercising or practicing ballet or other dances:
  • FIGS. 1A and 1B show one embodiment of the present invention.
  • FIG. 1 A shows an unconnected pair of socks 1, each sock 1a, 1b having a substantially permanently affixed suction cup 2a, 2b, respectively.
  • FIG. 1B shows these socks 1a, 1b connected by the mutually engaged suction cups 2a, 2b.
  • Suction cups 2a, 2b respectively have cup regions 4a, 4b each with a smooth, generally concave surface, and base regions 5a, 5b opposite cup regions 4a, 4b by which the suction cups may be affixed to the socks.
  • Silicone is resistant to most detergents and bleach, is moldable to any shape, and can be colored or clear.
  • Other alternative materials include polyurethanes, vinyl-based polymers, such as, for example, vinyl chloride and vinylidene chloride, and polymeric fluorocarbons, such as, for example, Viton®, which is flexible, chemical resistant, and heat resistant.
  • vinyl chloride polymers have a softening temperature close to the upper temperatures of some clothes dryers and very hot water so that a choice of material should be made with the likely upper temperatures of cleaning in mind.
  • suitable materials for suction cups 2a, 2b include elastomeric resilient materials having a durometer shore A hardness value ranging from about 40 to about 70.
  • cup and base regions of suction cups 2a, 2b are not necessarily entirely integral and uniformly of the same material.
  • the cup and base regions of the affixed suction cups 2a, 2b are integral and of the same material, while in other embodiments (not shown), the cup and base regions of suction cups 2a, 2b can be of different material, substantially permanently bonded by suitable means, for example, by welding during molding the two regions separately, or after molding the two regions separately, for example, such as by heat-based welding, solvent-based welding, or adhesive.
  • suitable adhesives include vinyl-based, polymeric acrylate-based (e.g., PMMA), and epoxy-based adhesives.
  • Suction cups 2a, 2b are not limited to specific designs and dimensions.
  • Cup regions 4a, 4b are preferably, but not necessarily, of substantially circular cross-section, but may also be of generally oval cross-section or other suitable geometry.
  • cup regions 4a, 4b are shown as substantially circular and may have an outside diameter ranging from about 0.37 inch to about 0.75 inch, and may have a radius of curvature ranging from about 0.5 inch to about 1 inch, although other dimensions can be used.
  • the base regions 5a, 5b are not limited to a specific geometry and may be generally or substantially circular, oval, square, or rectangular.
  • the suction force that connects the socks 1a, 1b is made by urging together with sufficient force the suction cups 2a, 2b such that fluid, usually air, between the cups 2a, 2b is forced out from between them, and such that one or both of the suction cups are elastically deformed and a fluid seal is formed between them.
  • An established, connective suction force will be maintained as long as fluid (e.g., air, other gas, water, or other liquid) surrounding the region between the engaged cups 2a, 2b does not enter that region and equalize the pressure within the region to that outside the region.
  • fluid e.g., air, other gas, water, or other liquid
  • the connection provided by the cups 2a, 2b is intended to withstand the challenge of washing, drying, and storing the pair of socks 1 for the next use so that a step of matching up separated socks is eliminated (or at least reduced for a group of socks).
  • Base regions 5a, 5b of the cups 2a, 2b may be substantially permanently affixed to a sock or other article, for example, by heating and melting a portion of each base region 5a, 5b to flow into the sock fabric if base regions 5a, 5b are made of or include a thermoplastic material, or by a suitable adhesive between base regions 5a, 5b and into the sock fabric.
  • the base regions 5a, 5b can be roughened or otherwise prepared or modified (e.g., primed) to enhance adhesion.
  • suitable adhesives are those that bond the selected cup material and sock material. Examples include polymeric acrylate-based (e.g., PMMA) and epoxy-based adhesives. Hot melt adhesives can be used as well, such as adhesives made of materials that are the same as or similar to the thermoplastic material of which the cup is made.
  • Suction cups 2a, 2b, engaged as in FIG. 1B remain engaged throughout such washing and drying conditions, yet are readily separable by pinching on their sides or by pulling them apart.
  • a pinchable release is preferred to a pulling release to minimize stress on the article's fabric.
  • the suction cups 2a, 2b can be removably affixed to the socks 1a, 1b, respectively.
  • the affixation of the cups 2a, 2b is such that the cups 2a, 2b are intended to be removable from and replaceable onto the socks 1a, 1b as desired during the expected life of the socks or another article of clothing without damaging the cups or socks.
  • Removable suction cups are readily reusable if one or both socks become unexpectedly damaged before the end of their normally useful life.
  • Non-mating, removable affixation means include, but are not limited to, small, spring-biased clamps such as an alligator-type dip, a wire-like element securely affixed to a portion of the suction cup and that can be run through the sock fabric and secured to the suction cup, and other such means as are well known to those of ordinary skill in the art of fasteners.
  • suction cups 2a, 2b remain affixed to the socks 1a, 1b and to each other through washing and drying as described above until released by pinching or pulling apart the cups 2a, 2b.
  • suction cup 12 and suction-retentive element 13 are shown substantially permanently affixed to socks 11a, 11b, respectively, either suction cup 12 or suction-retentive element 13, or both, may be removably affixed to socks 11a, 11b, respectively, by means such as those described previously.
  • FIGS. 3A and 3B show perspective side and front views of an embodiment of the suction cups 2 or 12, which are shown affixed to socks in FIGS. 1A, 1B , 2A, and 2B .
  • FIG. 5 shows another embodiment of the present invention similar to the embodiment shown in FIGS. 2A and 2B , having two pairs of suction-based connectors that include suction cup 22a and suction-retentive element 23a on sock 21a and suction cup 22b and suction-retentive element 23b on sock 21b. That is, two suction-based connectors are used rather than one pair to connect the socks 21a, 21b.
  • FIG. 6 shows another embodiment of the present invention in which a suction cup 32 (or suction-retentive element, not shown) is positioned within a graphical design 34 on sock 31.
  • the graphical design 34 could be a decorative design, such as the polka dots as shown, a logo, a combination thereof, or other graphics.
  • graphics could be added to the cup 32 (not shown).
  • the suction cups and suction retentive elements provide means for connecting, joining, or holding together articles of clothing, using suction force.
  • means for affixing the cups to the socks including thermoplastic materials, adhesives, clasps, and the like.
  • the present invention is useful for connecting socks. It is, however, useful for connecting mittens, gloves, and other articles of clothing.
  • Another embodiment of the invention is a set of articles comprising a child's coat and pair of gloves or mittens, wherein the coat has at least two affixed suction cups, for example, each cup located near the end of each sleeve, and each glove or mitten has a suction cup such that each suction cup of the glove or mitten is connectively engaged to a suction cup on the coat, and this set of connected articles can be hung up at home or school to dry when the gloves or mittens have become wet from playing in the snow, reducing the likelihood of losing one or both gloves or mittens.
  • matching sets of gloves, mittens, hats, scarves, and jackets, such as fleece versions of these articles can be kept together with the present invention for storage purposes or even for washing/drying purposes.
  • Another embodiment of the present invention is a method for connecting articles of clothing including socks, by suction-based components.
  • One step of the method is providing a first sock having a top open end, a bottom closed end, and a first means for providing a suction-connective force.
  • Another step is providing a second sock having a top open end, a bottom closed end, and a second means for providing a suction-connective force.
  • Another step is connecting the first and second socks by sufficiently forcing together the first and second means for providing the suction-connective force to produce a substantially secure but releasable suction-connective force between said components. Structures described above, including suction cups and suction-retentive members, can be used with this method.
