Definitions

  • Object of the present invention is a compression garment according to the pre-characterizing part of the independent claim.
  • compression identifies a category of garments comprising parts which are designed to compress certain muscles of the person wearing the garment, during a physical exercise, increasing their strength, reducing fatigue, reducing vibrations and muscle micro traumas, improving performance and facilitating recovery.
  • Compression garments are known in which compression is obtained using a highly elastic fabric comprising for this purpose a high percentage (for example greater than 150) of a yarn of the "elastane” or “spandex” type, for example of the type marketed with brands: Lycra (Invista), Elaspan (Invista), Dorlastan (Asahi), Roica (Asahi), Linel (Fillattice), so the person wears the garment reduced by one or more sizes compared to that usual for him/her in order to create a compression on the muscle bands.
  • This solution is not particularly effective because, due to the physical differences between one person and another, the garment fabric only partially adapts to the wearer's body, and in any case not adequately to achieve the desired effects; moreover it does not create any real areas of gradual compression.
  • WO 2019/191498 which discloses the preamble of claim 1, describes an energizing garment that in particular is capable of acting on the lymphatic system of the wearer's body to stimulate circulation and smooth/reduce cellulite (in this regard, see for example paragraphs 3, 4, 29 and 30).
  • the invention described in this document relates to the making of a compression garment comprising a compression material formed by one or more layers and with one or more parts secured together, wherein the following elements are secured to said compression material:
  • WO 2019/191498 teaches to generate a compressive force by using the compression material the garment itself is made of; WO 2019/191498 also teaches to provide the watershed fingers and massage fingers on said compression material which do not have a compressive purpose but have the purpose of selectively activating the watershed regions and/or massaging the non-watershed region in order to reduce cellulite. To this purpose WO 2019/191498 teaches to position the watershed fingers and the massage fingers on said compression material only and exclusively in certain predefined patterns, which follow the lymphatic watersheds for the watershed fingers, and follow the non-watershed regions for the massage fingers.
  • US 2007/074328 relates to an article of apparel having a cylindrical portion, such as an arm region or a leg region for extending around a joint of the wearer of the article of apparel itself.
  • the cylindrical portion includes a textile material and a pattern located on a surface of the textile material.
  • the pattern has: a first density in at least one area of the cylindrical portion oriented substantially parallel to a plane of bending of the joint, and the pattern has a second density in at least one area of the cylindrical portion oriented substantially perpendicular to the plane of bending of the joint.
  • US 2007/074328 The teaching of US 2007/074328 is that the higher density due to the pattern printed on the textile material varies the stretch resistance of the article of apparel.
  • the purpose of the pattern printed on the textile material is not to increase the compression exerted by the article of apparel for example on an arm, but to vary the stretch resistance of the article of apparel at the joints, for example at the elbow.
  • the density of the pattern has a non-uniform development and has a plurality of vertical areas, in which each vertical area has its own development in the density of the elements forming the pattern, and in which in any case the density of the elements of the patterns of each of said vertical areas first decreases, then increases and then decreases again, or vice versa (as shown for example in Figure 6 of US 2007/074328 ).
  • US 2018/279696 relates to a garment to facilitate weight loss.
  • US 2018/279696 explicitly states (see paragraph 42) that the invention is not intended to portray a supplement to physical activity; rather, it is a tool that can aide people who want temporary weight-loss and who seek to reduce their weight through some depletion of water weight by perspiration.
  • US 2018/279696 describes a compression garment for use in sport which allows to improve athletic performance, and teaches, to this purpose, to provide a first material on the inner face of the garment and a second material on the outer face, wherein these materials are adapted to vary the modulus of elasticity of the garment and ultimately the extent and position of the compression exerted by the garment itself. These first and second materials form a sort of "taping" on the garment. US 2018/27969696 does not suggest making silicone microelements on the garment, but printing a silicone film or ink, i.e. a continuous silicone element.
  • the object of the present invention which is solely defined by the claims, is to make a compression garment, a fabric for making said garment, and a method for making this garment, which overcome the drawbacks of known compression garments and wherein the compression parts of the garment adapt to the different physical/muscular characteristics of the wearer, in order to guarantee an effective compression effect, even if the garment is worn by people who do not have identical or similar physical/muscular characteristics.
  • a further object is to provide a fabric which is simple and easy to produce.
  • FIGS 1-4 show a first embodiment of a compression garment according to the invention, indicated as a whole with 1, wherein the garment is a long-sleeved shirt.
  • the compression garment 1 comprises:
  • elastic base fabric not only refers to an elastic element which is actually made by weaving but it also refers to any substantially two-dimensional elastic body, of a conventional type for one skilled in the art, adapted to cover and fit the body of the person wearing the garment.
  • the total compressive force applied by the compression garment at a given position of the first portion of the anatomy of the person wearing the garment is the sum of the first compressive force and the second compressive force at that position of the garment.
  • the elastomer printed on at least said portion of base fabric 1A, 1B of at least one portion of the arms and/or legs only provides said elements whose size and/or density decrease continuously.
  • At least one plurality of the elements is positioned on the portion of base fabric 1A, 1B along a plurality of annular portions Z, which surround corresponding annular portions of the arms and/or legs, and all the elements of each of said annular portions 2 have equal size and/or density, so that all said elements of each of said annular portions of elements exert a substantially equal compressive force on the corresponding portion of the arms and/or legs.
  • This is calculated, for example, by dividing the base fabric which includes the elastomer elements, into a plurality of annular bands F1-Fn (shown in Fig. 4 A) all having an equal height H, for example a height between 5 cm and 1 cm, and calculating for each annular band the values of the fabric surface covered by elements (Stc) and of the free fabric surface (Stl).
  • dimensions of the elements refers to the flat dimensions of the elements, that is their length and/or width or diameter.
  • torso refers to that part of the human body to which the upper limbs (that is the arms) and the lower limbs (that is the legs) are connected, that is that part of the body comprising, among other parts, the shoulders and the hip.
  • the decrease in the size and/or density of the micro elements could be less marked in a first determined portion of the base fabric, for example the one going from the wrists to the elbow, and then be more marked in a second determined portion of the base fabric, for example the one going from the elbow to the shoulders; or vice versa.
  • all the elements or at least part of them (for example more than 50%, more preferably more than 80%) have an equal regular shape, for example a circular or regular polygonal shape, such as a square, rectangular, hexagonal, triangular shape.
  • This feature makes the element printing process quicker and easier.
  • the elements have decreasing dimensions (for example the diameter, or the diagonal) going from the lower end parts 3A, 3B of the portions of base fabric 1A, 1B of the garment to the upper parts 4A, 4B of the portions of base fabric 1A, 1B; this technical feature is even more advantageous if combined with the previous one relating to the fact that the elements have all or at least part of them (for example more than 50%, more preferably more than 80%, even more preferably more than 100%) an equal regular shape.
  • This feature also makes the element printing process quicker and easier.
  • the elements have uniformly decreasing dimensions (for example the diameter, or the diagonal) going from the lower end parts 3A, 3B of the portions of base fabric 1A, 1B of the garment to the upper parts 4A, 4B of the portions of base fabric 1A, 1B, and for example the dimension of the elements (for example their diameter) decreases by a percentage which is almost equal (almost equal meaning a difference between +/- 50) to the percentage of decrease in the surface of the fabric including the elastomer; so, if for example with 100% printed fabric comprising the elements, these have a diameter of 0.57 cm, with 90% printed fabric comprising the elements, these have a diameter of 0.512 cm, with 80% of printed fabric the diameter drops to about 0.457 cm and with 70% of printed fabric the diameter drops to 0.399 cm, and so on, up to when with 10% of printed fabric the diameter is 0.057.
  • the printed elastomer elements can also be provided in the garment areas that do not completely surround or enclose an anatomical part of the body of the person wearing the garment, for example in figures 1, 2 these elements are also arranged at the upper parts 1C, 1D of the arms and shoulders, in these parts the garment has a lower compressive force than the other parts 1A, 1B previously discussed because the garment does not tighten annularly, therefore completely, the arm.
  • the size and/or the density of said elements decrease going towards the upper parts 5C, 5D of the garment provided at the upper part of the shoulders and/or the opening 6 for the neck, so as to reduce the compressive force exerted by said elements going towards said opening, that is going from the extremities of the person wearing the garment to the upper part of the shoulders and/or the neck of the person wearing the garment.
  • the development of the size and/or density of the elements decreases, preferably uniformly, even more preferably substantially linearly (the term "substantially” is intended to indicate possible deviations equal to +/- 5%), going from the lower end parts 3 A, B, that is from the cuffs, in which it is maximum, to the upper parts 5C, D provided at the upper part of the shoulders and/or collar, where it is minimum.
  • Figures 5-8 show a second embodiment of a garment according to the invention wherein the garment is trousers that entirely cover the legs.
  • the parts or components of this second garment shared with the previously described garment will be indicated with the same numbering used for the first garment with the addition, however, of a superscript.
  • the compression garment 1' comprises:
  • the elastomer printed on at least said portion of base fabric 1A, 1B of at least one portion of the arms and/or legs only provides said elements whose size and/or density decrease continuously.
  • At least one plurality of the elements is positioned on the portion of base fabric 1A', 1B' along a plurality of annular portions Z', which surround corresponding annular portions of the arms and/or legs, and all the elements of each of said annular portions Z' of elements have equal size and/or density, so that said elements of each of said annular portions of elements all exert substantially equal compressive force on the corresponding portion of the arms and/or legs.
  • This is calculated, for example, by dividing the base fabric which includes the elastomer elements, into a plurality of annular bands F1'-Fn' (shown in Fig. 8 A) all having an equal height H', for example a height between 5 cm and 1 cm, and calculating for each annular band the values of the fabric surface covered by elements (Stc) and of the free fabric surface (Stl) .
  • the elements have all or at least part of them (for example more than 50%, more preferably more than 80%, even more preferably more than 100%),) an equal regular shape, for example a circular or regular polygonal shape, such as a square, rectangular, hexagonal shape.
  • the elements have decreasing dimensions (for example the diameter, or the diagonal) going from the lower end parts 3A', 3B' of the portions of base fabric 1A', 1B' of the garment to the upper parts 4A', 4B' of the portions of base fabric 1A', 1B'; this technical feature is even more advantageous if combined with the previous one relating to the fact that the elements have all or at least part of them (for example more than 50%, more preferably more than 80%, even more preferably more than 100%) an equal regular shape.
  • the elements have uniformly decreasing dimensions (for example the diameter, or the diagonal) going from the lower end parts 3A', 3B' of the portions of base fabric 1A', 1B' of the garment to the upper parts 4A', 4B' of the portions of base fabric 1A', 1B', and for example the dimension of the elements (for example their diameter) decreases by a percentage which is almost equal (almost equal meaning a difference between +/- 50) to the percentage of decrease in the surface of the fabric including the elastomer; so, if for example with 100% printed fabric comprising the elements, these have a diameter of 0.57 cm, with 90% printed fabric comprising the elements, these have a diameter of 0.512 cm, with 80% of printed fabric the diameter drops to about 0.457 cm and with 70% of printed fabric the diameter drops to 0.399 cm, and so on, up to when with 10% of printed fabric the diameter is 0.057.
  • the dimensions for example the diameter, or the diagonal
  • the printed elastomer elements can also be provided in the garment areas that do not completely surround or enclose an anatomical part of the body of the person wearing the garment, for example in Figures 5 , 6 these elements are also arranged at the upper parts 1C', 1D' of the legs, in these parts the garment has a lower compressive force than the other parts 1A', 1B' previously discussed because the garment does not tighten annularly, therefore completely, the legs.
  • the size and/or density of said elements decrease going towards the upper parts 5C', 5D' of the garment provided at the iliac crests of the hip of the person wearing the garment, so as to reduce the compressive force exerted by said elements going towards said parts 5C", 5D', that is going from the extremities of the person wearing the garment to the iliac crests of the person wearing the garment.
  • the decrease in the size and/or density of the elements in the areas 1C', 1D' follows the same decreasing development of the elements of the areas 1A', 1B', so that there is a continuous and preferably uniform decrease of the elements from the lower end parts 3A', 3B' to the upper parts of the garment 5C', 5D' provided at the iliac crests 6.
  • the development of the size and/or density of the elements decreases, preferably uniformly, going from the lower end parts 3A', 3B', where it is maximum, to the upper parts 5C', 5D' provided at the iliac crests, where it is minimum.
  • the elastomer to print the elements on the base fabric can be of any conventional type to the one skilled in the art, for example it can be of the type comprising silicone.
  • the silicone is advantageously printed on the base fabric.
  • the element printing process is also of a conventional type for the one skilled in the art, and includes, for example, a screen, silkscreen or high frequency transfer printing process.
  • This arrangement of the elements makes the compression more uniform and allows to better fit the different physical and/or muscular characteristics of the wearer.
  • the distance S between an axis K and the one immediately following is the same for all the annular portions of elements.

  • the invention also relates to an elastic fabric 100 ( fig. 9 ) for manufacturing the compression parts of a compression garment, for example of the previously described type, which surround and enclose the circumference of at least one first part of the anatomy of a person wearing the garment, namely the upper limbs (that is the arms) in the example shown in figures 1-4 and the lower limbs, that is the legs of the wearer in the example shown in figures in figures 5-8 , and/or for manufacturing the entire sleeve/leg of the garment, that is parts 1A, 1C and 1B, 1D of the garment.
  • Figure 9 shows the portion of fabric necessary for manufacturing a sleeve of the long-sleeved shirt of figures 1, 2 ; the profile of this sleeve has been represented with a double continuous line, as usual in the textile field, and the sleeve is indicated as a whole with the reference 1A.
