Definitions

  • the invention relates to a brassiere.
  • the invention relates to a back closure or a fastening device for a brassiere.
  • a standard brassiere comprises a pair of back-open cups adapted to overlay the wearer's breasts and have inner edges which are contiguous with one another, as well as outer edges from which back band wings pass under the arms of the wearer and embrace the back of the wearer, where they come to rest against each other and are releasably connected to each other by means of a closure.
  • a wearer who normally proceeds from the tip of each cup and passes over the shoulder of the wearer, is connected to the back of the wearer with the upper edge of the respective back strap wing, see eg US 6,321,419 ,
  • the standard closure consists of a plurality of horizontally spaced apart vertical rows of eyes located at the outer or back end of one of the wings and a complementary vertical row of hooks on a front or inner side of the end of the other of the two wings.
  • the hooks are engaged with the eyes of one of the rows to secure the two wings together.
  • the back band wings are typical made of an elastic textile material, however, the hook and eye-bearing ends are slightly stiffer.
  • the manufacture of the closure from the various elements involves a plurality of positioning and fastening steps which add to the cost of the known closure.
  • the attachment is by sewing together and it is very difficult to perform the sewing so that the textile elements of the closure perfectly match each other, which are usually already slightly offset from each other when the laundry is still new, but in any case after some time of use ,
  • a closure provided for joining the ends of two back parts of a brassiere comprises a piece of an inelastic textile material which has a back surface facing away from the wearer of the brassiere and an opposing front surface.
  • the fabric piece is secured to one end of one of the backs and carries on the back side a plurality of transversely extending and longitudinally spaced apart rows of first plastic closure members, each row including at least two closure elements arranged transversely in one Are spaced apart from each other.
  • a flat body has an inner end attached to the end of the other back, an opposing outer end, a front that at least partially overlaps the back of the cloth at the outer end, and a rear opposite the front.
  • Corresponding second plastic closure elements which are generally complementary to the first closure element and are engageable with the latter in engagement, are attached to the front of the body at its outer end such that they are aligned with the first closure elements and fixing with them Intervention can be brought.
  • a transverse one rigid rod which is arranged on the base body or formed as part of the same, prevents transverse relative movements of the second closure elements and a bending of the base body in the region of these second closure elements.
  • Such a closure measured between front and back can be made extremely thin, in practice, with a thickness of only 4 mm, which is considerably less than the usual 6 mm for a conventional closure.
  • the construction is such that tension applied through the backs does not cause the closure to curl or twist, but rather causes it to flatten, so that an unattractive bulge can never form, even if the brassiere is e.g. worn under a tight-fitting T-shirt.
  • the closure can be realized completely without stitching, i. by welding, usually ultrasonic welding, so that never poses the problem of an unattractive contrasting seam.
  • the first closure elements are female and U-shaped, while the second closure elements are male. They are both completely made of plastic so that they can be used e.g. can not get caught in the laundry. Moreover, such a completely non-metallic construction is very simple and cheap and avoids some of the skin sensitivity and allergy problems associated with metallic parts.
  • the fabric piece according to the invention is formed from congruent front and back textile layers, and the first closure elements each comprise a front part which is sandwiched between these layers, and a back part, which is mating with the respective associated second closure elements, as well as a pen or Connecting element that passes through the rearward position between the respective front and rear parts.
  • These pins or connecting parts may be integral with the respective front and rear parts or can also be integrally formed with one of the respective front and rear parts and connected by ultrasonic welding to the respective other front or rear part.
  • Each of the layers is rectangular in shape and the closure further includes ultrasonic welding regions extending along at least three sides of the layers and holding them together immediately within the outer edges thereof.
  • These welds may, according to a particular advantageous embodiment of the invention, extend only along three sides of the layers and be offset from a fourth side. The respective back part end on the fourth side is received between the respective layers and attached thereto.
  • one or both layers may also be embodied as an integral part of the brassiere back piece when the holder is made together with the undergarment.
  • bar-shaped welds extending between the rows of first closure elements are formed. These prevent the closure from curling and maintain the exact spacing between the first closure elements.
  • the flat basic body can also be designed as a plastic part that is uniform with the second closure elements and the rigid bars.
  • at least one flexible Stoffilstofflappen is connected to the rigid rod-shaped part and attached to the respective back of the tail or in particular two such textile tabs are sandwiched and welded to the rod and sandwiched at the corresponding end of the wing and connected thereto.
  • the inventive method comprises the steps of attaching a plurality of first closure elements, which are made of plastic, on a front side of an inelastic fabric piece, which faces away from the wearer of the brass back and an opposite Front has, wherein the first closure elements are arranged in a plurality of transverse longitudinally spaced rows at the back, and further providing a flat body having an inner end which is connected to the end of the other of the back parts is and an opposite outer end and a front that overlaps at least partially the back of the fabric piece at the outer end, and a front side opposite the back.
  • Corresponding second closure elements which are designed to be substantially complementary to the first closure elements, are fastened to the front side of the main body at the outer end, such that they are aligned with the first closure elements and can be brought into fixing engagement.
  • a transversely extending rigid rod is arranged on the base body or formed as part of it, such that transverse movements of the second closure elements relative to one another and bending of the base body in the region of the second closure elements are prevented.
  • the piece of fabric is formed from two congruent front and back textile layers, wherein the first closure elements each have a front part enclosed between the layers, a back part which can be paired with each of the second closure elements, and a A pin or connector passing through the backsheet between the respective front and back portions.
  • These front and rear parts can be made uniformly with each other, with the pins or the connecting part, as well as with the stiffening rod in a single shot of an injection molding process or alternatively, the pins or connecting parts integral with one of the respective front and rear side parts and each with the other of the respective front and back sides are welded.
  • a closure according to the invention basically comprises a female part 10, which is normally fastened to the dorsal wing W shown in dashed lines, and a male part 20, which is fastened to the other dorsal wing.
  • Fig. 1A shows the closure seen from the back, ie, seen in a position behind the wearer, wherein the closure is closed in its longest configuration.
  • the female part 10 is formed by a front material layer 11a and a rear material layer 11b, of which at least one, in the embodiment shown both, usually consists of a non-stretchable textile fabric a microfiber strip in linen formation exist. These layers 11a and 11b are interconnected along their longitudinal edges and an outer edge by a U-shaped weld 11c. In addition, there are provided transversely extending welds 11d longitudinally spaced from each other via the ultrasonically joined layers 11a and 11b within the areas marked by the weld 11c to further stabilize the assembly by avoiding tension.
  • the U-shaped edge seal 11c terminates a short distance from the inner ends of the layers 11a and 11b and the innermost transverse weld 11d is also outwardly spaced from this inner end so that the two layers 11a and 11b at the inner end of the female part 11 are separated from each other and form fixing lips there. Thereby, it is possible to sandwich the two layers 11a and 11b on opposite inner and outer surfaces of the respective back wing W and fix them thereto by welding or sewing so as to obtain a stable anchorage and smooth connection.
  • Each of these two female butterfly-shaped closure elements comprising rows 12 are arranged on the back surface of the back-side layer 11b in transversely extending rows, which are arranged in the longitudinal direction at a distance from each other.
  • more than two such elements 12 could be arranged in braces with larger cups in each row, but it is, as explained below, often only necessary to increase the transverse distance of the two elements 12, not their number, by a Magnification of the transverse dimension of the closure to achieve an adaptation to a wider wing W.
  • Each female single element 12 comprises, as better understood from the Fig. 2A - 2C a butterfly-shaped back part 12a, which sits on the outer surface of the backsheet 11b and a rectangular-annular, inner part 12b ( Fig. 2D - 2F ) sandwiched between the front side of the backsheet 11 and the back side of the front material layer 11a.
