Definitions

  • the invention relates to a pair of trousers comprising a waistband system, a method for producing such trousers and a use of such trousers.
  • Lower body clothing usually includes a waistband, e.g. in the case of trousers, a waistband that rests on the wearer’s hips or waist when worn and from which the wearer’s lower extremities are fully or partially covered.
  • the waistband is usually designed for a certain hip width (which in turn corresponds to a certain clothing size), and can be opened or closed at the front, e.g.
  • a snap fastener to put the trousers on or take them off at the so-called fly, with the closure of the waistband, which rests more or less loosely on the hips, being intended to prevent it from slipping down if possible.
  • Additional support for the waistband is provided by a hip belt or belt, for example, which can be held and tightened by belt loops along the waistband, e.g. This can happen, for example, if the waistband no longer exactly matches the measurements of the hips or if external circumstances, moisture or sweat, cause the waistband to then unfortunately have a permanent tendency to slip.
  • trousers with a waistband with elastic parts are known. This means that the trousers fit snugly around the wearer's hips. However, this does not solve the problem that the trousers slip down in the lumbar region during extreme movements in which the human body stretches and contracts, such as bending over, squatting or deep knee bends, and thus usually restrict the wearer's freedom of movement. This means that the fit and ergonomic qualities are no longer optimal, particularly in the case of anatomically cut clothing.
  • a lockable elastic work belt with lumbar support is known from DE 10 200 24 002 A1, which discloses the preamble of claim 1.
  • the belt provides a kind of "placebo" effect and gives the wearer a feeling of support for the lower back and, on the other hand, it has a compression effect that can be activated or deactivated.
  • trousers with a split, multi-part waistband for adjusting the width of the trousers are known.
  • a front waistband part which overlaps a rear waistband part on the outside in an additional layer of material, is partially pulled over the rear, inner waistband part by means of a construction made of a fabric tab sewn to the outside of the rear waistband part and an endless loop sewn into it.
  • the inner rear waistband part which is additionally connected to the front waistband part by a short elastic section on the inside of an overlapping section of the front waistband part, is at least partially unfolded or gathered together when the split waistband is tightened, so that this construction leads to noticeable creasing in the side hip areas of the trousers.
  • This unfolding of layers of material creates unpleasant pressure points or pressure marks on the skin when the trousers are worn.
  • this wrinkling occurs precisely where, due to the design, there is already a massive accumulation of material in several overlapping layers. This multi-layered construction in the hip area is therefore not particularly comfortable to wear.
  • the trousers according to the invention comprise a special waistband system according to the invention.
  • the trousers according to the invention can also have two trouser legs in addition to the waistband system, which can be sewn on or zipped off, of any length or short and with or without cuffs.
  • the trousers can also have other usual functional parts, such as a plurality of trouser pockets and the like or accessories.
  • the said waistband system of the trousers includes a circumferential waistband. This is basically comparable to the waistband of a normal pair of trousers.
  • the side of the trousers is referred to as the front of the trousers, which normally rests on the stomach of the wearer of the trousers.
  • the said waistband runs, when worn as intended, from the back in the lumbar region of the wearer above along the hips (sideways) to a front area on the front of the trousers.
  • This horizontal direction along the waistband (or hip circumference) is therefore also referred to as the "waistband direction” or the longitudinal direction of the waistband (or hip circumference direction).
  • the waistband comprises several different sections along its length.
  • an inelastic waistband section extends along the waistband at least on the back.
  • the inelastic waistband section integrated into the waistband is part of an inelastic strap that can be closed preferably at the front, particularly preferably on the side on the front, and which will be explained further below.
  • This section of the strap integrated into the waistband can therefore also be referred to below as the "strap waistband section" because it essentially forms a common part of the waistband and strap.
  • the waistband also includes at least one monoelastic, or possibly bielastic, waistband section, at least in the direction of the waistband or at least in the lengthwise direction (of the circumferential waistband), through which the waistband automatically adjusts to small changes in the wearer's hip circumference without creases.
  • the position and length of this elastic waistband section along the waistband can generally be freely selected. Preferred further developments in this regard are explained below.
  • the waistband system of the trousers is essentially relaxed in a normal, upright posture. This means that without external force, the waistband system is in a more or less relaxed state depending on the waistband width of the waistband relative to the wearer's hip circumference. However, external force, e.g. a movement of the wearer such as "bending forward” or “squatting", can cause the waistband system to be stretched.
  • the waistband system can also be stretched by loading the trouser pockets or attaching an additional load. At least the monoelastic waistband section of the waistband system described above is stretched, i.e. the waistband system experiences a change in length in relation to its original length, i.e. its length in the relaxed state.
  • the length of the waistband system here refers to a dimension in the stretching direction or perpendicular to the direction of the waistband.
  • stretching here mainly refers to positive stretching, i.e. stretching.
  • negative stretching i.e. compression caused by the elastic material giving way, on the opposite side of the waistband cannot be ruled out.
  • materials that are also considered elastic in relevant specialist circles are considered “elastic”. This includes in particular materials that contain a certain proportion of elastic fibers (elastane, lycra and similar) in the stretch direction. Materials that have so-called mechanical stretch properties could also be used in principle if they have sufficient stretch properties.
  • Typical elastic fabrics are Schoeller ® -dynamic or comparable.
  • fabrics that are not elastic should be considered “inelastic", in particular classic fabric constructions such as plain weave fabrics that do not have any elastic fiber components or mechanical stretch properties.
  • Typical inelastic fibers include cotton, silk, viscose, polyamide or polyester fibers. These materials have little to no stretch.
  • This monoelastic waistband section can in turn be bridged according to the invention using the previously mentioned strap, in which the strap is pulled tight against each other, for example with its two loose ends or strap end sections.
  • the strap runs parallel to the waistband, starting separately from the inelastic waistband section on the back, and also into a front area of the trousers.
  • the strap can preferably also be slightly curved or run slightly curved essentially parallel to the waistband in order to adapt even better to the anatomical and physiological conditions, i.e. e.g. to the anatomical hip shape, of the wearer.
  • the elastic waistband section is then "bridged", i.e.
  • the strap which is integrated into the waistband at the back, forms a kind of "bypass" for the front part of the waistband at the front, i.e. it preferably runs around the entire stomach at the front. This makes the waistband system according to the invention fixable.
  • the belt is then tightened as intended - as mentioned above - a maximum degree of stretch of the elastic waistband section underneath can be achieved.
  • the trousers with the waistband system are thus held in place above the hips in the designated place (usually in the area of the wearer's hip bone) even when additional loads are applied (e.g. directly or indirectly attached to the belt), without the elastic waistband sections having to bear the additional load and thus becoming sagging or wrinkled due to the excessive load.
  • a combination of an elastic waistband and an inelastic, lockable belt above it also ensures that the elastic waistband section of the trousers can be adjusted in terms of stretch using the inelastic belt, and that small variations in the hip circumference due to the shape are automatically compensated for by the elastic waistband itself.
  • the belt does not form any additional wrinkles in the side hip area and is much less bulky than with a design with a multi-part waistband, such as the design of the US 1 959 486 A , where the different parts of the waistband are gathered together to form several layers of folded fabric when tightened. Tests have shown that such constructions create a large number of pressure points that are uncomfortable and annoying when wearing the trousers, and even painful in the long term.
  • the trousers according to the invention can be adjusted to the largest possible number of individual hip sizes at any time during use with the waistband system. For example, even if the hip circumference of the same wearer fluctuates slightly from time to time or in special situations with variable or different additional weight during use, the trousers stay firmly but at the same time comfortably on the wearer's hips.
  • the strap in the lumbar region is integrated into the waistband (or is in direct contact with the body there, particularly by means of the preferred back pad described below), this part in particular is pulled well against the body.
  • the trousers according to the invention with the trouser waistband system achieve a consistently good hold even during extreme movements, such as deep squats, climbing, etc.
  • a method according to the invention for producing trousers according to the invention with a waistband system comprises at least the following steps:
  • the trouser waistband system of the trousers is sewn or sewn together with a circumferential waistband and an inelastic, lockable strap.
  • at least one waistband section that is monoelastic at least in the longitudinal direction is incorporated into the waistband, preferably under pre-tension (as explained below), which is bridged by means of the strap running parallel to it.
  • the lockable strap is integrated or sewn into the waistband as an inelastic waistband section at least on one back of the trousers.
  • At least the monoelastic waistband section can be slightly pre-tensioned or sewn into the waistband under slight pre-tension.
  • "Slight" pre-tension means that such a waistband section is sewn in a slightly tensioned, i.e. elongated, state.
  • the elastic waistband section is therefore stretched a little, i.e. by about 1 to 2 cm, while it is sewn to the rest of the trousers below the waistband, e.g. the front and back cut parts of the trouser legs. After sewing, the rest of the trousers below the waistband gathers together again slightly because the pre-tension is released.
  • an additional hip belt or belt for small additional loads and emergency items can also be worn particularly well, as is often required by the police, fire service, military and the like. This can be detachably attached or fastened to the waistband system of the trousers.
  • the trouser waistband preferably has two elastic trouser waistband sections that are laterally connected to the inelastic trouser waistband section of the belt or the belt trouser waistband section, each running forwards along the trouser waistband.
  • lateral is meant that in this case the elastic trouser waistband sections extend in side areas essentially along the hip/waist of the wearer.
  • the elastic trouser waistband sections essentially run from the lumbar region around the respective hip bone into a front lower abdomen area of the wearer. They can be designed symmetrically relative to a sagittal plane (in general, directions on the body are given below with anatomical directions known from medicine) through the wearer or through the trousers for the wearer.
  • connecting means that the respective sections merge directly into one another, i.e., for example, they are sewn together or otherwise linked.
  • the elastic waistband sections can be made of a material that can be stretched by at least 30%, particularly preferably at least 35%, and very particularly preferably at least 40% in the longitudinal direction of the waistband. In the stretched state, the material in question is therefore longer by the corresponding percentage than in the relaxed state.
  • a material can be used for this that returns to its original state as well as possible over a particularly long period of time, ie even after a large number of stretches, without becoming noticeably baggy.
  • the material therefore adapts very well to the varying hip circumference of the wearer of the waistband system during use. For example, when the wearing position changes or when the body posture changes.
  • the waistband can also have an inelastic waistband section at the front in the crotch area or lower abdomen area.
  • This can be designed similarly to the inelastic waistband section integrated into the waistband on the back of the trousers.
  • it can be significantly shorter, namely only extending in a small central area.
  • it can connect to the elastic waistband sections at the front at the end, i.e. connect the two elastic waistband sections.
  • the waistband can be interrupted in the front area (in which the fly is also located on commercially available trousers) perpendicular to the direction of the waistband with at least one fly.
  • the inelastic trouser waistband section of the trouser waistband can preferably be in two parts, i.e. have two inelastic end sections or trouser waistband end sections.
  • the trouser fly separates the inelastic trouser waistband section into the two said trouser waistband end sections.
  • These inelastic trouser waistband end sections can preferably be connected to one another by means of two cooperating fastening means.
  • the fly can be closed along its length using a zipper or Velcro fastener, so that when closed, the two inelastic waistband sections are held together.
  • the said trouser fly can preferably be connected or closed by means of two, particularly preferably interlocking, point fastening means. They can also be designed to be able to detachably fix other components.
  • one of the two trouser waistband end sections can, for example, have a fastening eyelet, with the other then having a corresponding trouser button. In this way, both can be detachably connected to one another as intended.
  • the fastening eyelet can, for example, be a simple buttonhole that is formed accordingly in the relevant trouser waistband end section. When closed, the trouser button is then simply guided through the buttonhole from the inside and protrudes from the front of the trousers away from the waistband. It is therefore available to accommodate further material layers, in particular fastening eyelets, as will be explained further below.
  • the respective end areas can be completely or partially formed with the corresponding materials, if necessary only in the end sections of the trouser waistband sections that overlap when closed.
  • At least one fastening means suitable for coupling with at least one coupling element can therefore be attached centrally on the outside of the front inelastic trouser waistband section - even without a trouser fly that needs to be closed.
  • a fastening eyelet as a possible coupling element, a trouser button or a similar protruding element can be attached as a fastening means, e.g. with a middle part of the belt, which is described further below.
  • a fastening eyelet can be incorporated centrally on the outside of the front inelastic trouser waistband section.
  • the invention is not limited to the described arrangement or sequence of the elastic and inelastic sections.
  • several elastic and inelastic sections can alternate along the waistband or be arranged in alternation with one another. This could be useful, for example, for attaching a number of stronger load loops for heavier objects, since the material of the inelastic sections would presumably provide a better basis for the load loops than is the case with elastic, flexible material.
  • the waistband system has the lockable strap mentioned above.
  • the strap can cover the waistband, in particular the elastic waistband sections, when the waistband system is worn as intended. During normal use or before the strap is properly fastened, it can also just lie loosely over the elastic waistband sections. However, when it is tightened, the strap lies directly over the elastic waistband sections, so that they are no longer visible from the outside and are physically protected.
  • any coloured material can be used for the elastic waistband sections without the camouflage properties of the clothing being negatively affected, for example when used as tactical clothing.
  • elastic materials can also be used that have very good elastic properties but are sensitive to surface stress or sharp edges. This is because the elastic waistband sections cannot be damaged directly from the outside during use, which in turn ensures that the waistband fits properly and that the waistband system is held in place.
  • a plastic reinforcement can be incorporated into the strap to increase its rigidity. This ensures that the strap does not unintentionally roll up, twist or tangle around its length when additional weight or additional holsters or the like are attached to it.
  • a standard fastener such as a belt buckle or the like could be used for the strap.
  • the strap can have two loose strap end sections that are variable in length and can be fixed at least in sections. These can, for example, be fixed against each other centrally in a front area of the trouser waistband system, possibly also slightly offset to the side.
  • the trouser waistband system can have a separate middle part, on which the strap end sections can be fixed indirectly against each other in a variable length.
  • the middle part can be coupled to the waistband, preferably by means of a coupling element to a corresponding fastening means on the waistband. When properly attached, the middle part is then coupled to the waistband, which can prevent the middle part or the strap from undesirably slipping up relative to the trousers or the body.
  • the middle part is an independent part. However, it can also be seen as a separate part of the belt.
  • the middle part can particularly preferably comprise a number of endless material strips, most preferably endless plastic or metal elements.
  • the middle part therefore forms at least one closed loop or one endless material strip through which the two belt end sections - each coming from the outside - are passed, then folded back outwards, fixed with Velcro and hook tape and thus indirectly variable in length relative to one another.
  • the middle part can particularly preferably have at least three endless material loops or loops linked like a chain link, e.g. a middle, flexible fabric loop and two outer closed, essentially rigid, inflexible ring loops for passing the belt end sections through.
  • Ring loops can be, for example, round rings, semi-circular rings or D-rings, rectangular rings or square rings or similar. If the middle part is arranged accordingly between the two belt end sections, the two loose belt end sections of the belt can be threaded or passed through the side ring loops from the outside and then folded back outwards to secure them. When securing them, the belt end sections can be adjusted to varying lengths indirectly, i.e. via the two ring loops connected to the fabric loop like a chain link.
  • the surfaces of the belt end sections that face each other when folded can be provided with corresponding Velcro surfaces, for example.
  • the two outer ring loops can each be enclosed in two lateral sub-areas of the middle fabric loop.
  • the remaining area of the middle fabric loop between the two ring loops can then be enclosed in two, parallel to the trousers in a have layers of material arranged in front of each other at a minimal distance from each other.
  • One layer of material is closer to the trousers, the other further away.
  • the layers of material are flat structures, ie they have comparatively large dimensions in the direction of their surface, whereas their extension in a direction perpendicular to the surface, i.e. their thickness, is relatively small.
  • the material layer closest to the trousers can be designed with a fastening eyelet so that the middle part can be fastened or buttoned to the fastening means mentioned above (e.g. trouser button) of the trouser waistband from the front in a way that is hidden from view when the trouser waistband of the trouser waistband system is in the closed state as intended.
  • the fastening means mentioned above e.g. trouser button
  • an inverted arrangement of the fastening means or the fastening eyelet on the other part is also conceivable.
  • the outer material layer can also be designed without openings or fastening means, i.e. smooth and flat.
  • the production of the previously described middle part could look like this: A suitably made-up strip of material is sewn into a closed, continuous endless belt or fabric loop, enclosing the ring loops.
  • the two ring loops are then pulled apart as far as possible under slight tension, so that the fabric loop essentially has the shape of two elongated, parallel, closely spaced material layers.
  • the two predominantly parallel material layers of the fabric loop are then sewn together to form two smaller loops that enclose the ring loops along a seam inside the two ring loops, perpendicular to the length of the fabric loop.
  • the fabric loop is divided lengthwise into three areas, namely the two lateral sub-areas or ring loop areas with the ring loops (outside) and a middle area with two material layers in front of each other.
  • the waistband of the trousers can be adjusted on both sides and that there are no additional layers of material or buckles on top of the belt ends in the middle section due to the fact that they are folded over to the sides.
  • Such an accumulation of layers of material in the lower abdomen area would be perceived as disturbing, especially when bending over. Therefore, the particularly Flat construction is noticeably more comfortable than conventional designs with a belt buckle or the like, and also facilitates the use of an additional belt to hold holsters, bags, etc.
  • the construction is not only particularly flat in the front lower abdomen area, but also has no additional, unfolding layers of material in the side hip areas, which could be perceived as annoying by the wearer of the trousers - especially when wearing additional side holsters during operations, e.g. for objects such as pistols, knives, sticks, lamps, etc. - as this can lead to pressure points, bruises and sore spots on the skin, especially during longer operations.
  • waistband and/or the areas of the trousers adjacent to the waistband there are also various options for the further design of the waistband and/or the areas of the trousers adjacent to the waistband.
  • several trouser pockets or pockets can be formed below the waistband, particularly in the side areas on the front and back of the trousers, so that the wearer can carry objects in them if necessary, e.g. for operational reasons.
  • the waistband may have at least one external belt loop.
  • a single belt loop can extend, for example in a tunnel-like manner (for passing through or inserting a belt), at least over the area of the inelastic waistband section on the back of the trousers. It is particularly advantageous if it is also made of an elastic material or is sewn with enough play to allow the elastic material underneath to stretch or compress. This means that a belt loop could also extend, for example, into the area of the elastic waistband sections on the front or sides of the trousers, provided that it does not significantly impair their elastic properties.
  • belt loops these are preferably shorter "loop strips" or belt loops arranged at regular intervals along the outside of the waistband, as is known from conventional trousers, for example.
  • Such loop strips can run predominantly perpendicular to the waistband, i.e. each band-like connecting an upper edge of the waistband with a lower edge of the waistband.
  • the belt loops can form a loop on their own or together with the waistband, e.g. for passing through the end sections of the belt or an additional belt.
  • At least one, particularly preferably at least two, such belt loop(s) can be designed to be (re-)closable, e.g. by means of (each) two loop strip sections to be connected to one another.
  • These can preferably be arranged in the area of the inelastic belt end sections on the front of the waistband, so that they span the wrapped or secured belt end sections when closed. This makes it easier to thread and secure the belt according to the invention (at least on the front) and to put on an additional belt along the entire waistband.
  • all belt loops can be designed to be opened and closed in order to be able to thread the belt and/or a possible additional belt, in particular one that already has a load or additional weight, into or out of individual or multiple belt loops easily and in almost any way. At least the additional belt can thus be put on or taken off completely (including in a closed, only slightly loosened state) without any problems.
  • the trouser waistband system according to the invention is not limited to a single type of the belt loops described above.
  • a combination could also be provided, such as a single, tunnel-shaped belt loop on the back of the trouser waistband and several closable and/or non-closable belt loops on the front of the trouser waistband.
  • the waistband system has an inner back pad on the back in the area of the inelastic waistband section that is also integrated into the waistband.
  • the back pad is arranged on the inside of the waistband on the back of the trousers.
  • the back pad is, for example, a padding element or cushion that has almost no elastic properties or padding properties in a radial direction away from the wearer, but is very permeable to air.
  • the back pad can comprise at least one spacer fabric, such as that known from EN 10 2016 103 588 A1 which is surrounded by a pleasant inelastic material for reasons of comfort when it is sewn onto the inside of the waistband.
  • the back pad could also be sewn into the trousers as a finished padding element (in a correspondingly adapted shape and size), as is the case in the EN 10 2016 103 588 A1 described.
  • the back pad When a wearer wears trousers with such a waistband system with a back pad, the back pad is positioned in such a way that it rests in the lumbar region essentially above the sacrum, i.e. its lower end ends or stops at about the level of the wearer's sacrum. It serves to fill a more or less pronounced "hollow” in this area in humans that is anatomically determined. If it fills this, the waistband of the waistband system fits just as well or tightly to the body in the area of the hollow as it does along the rest of the waistband. When the strap of the waistband system according to the invention is tightened, the waistband of the trousers fits even more evenly to the wearer's body, so that the trousers are held even more comfortably and in an optimized manner.
  • the back pad can be essentially heart-shaped or semi-circular without a point and with a V-shaped cutout for optical reasons.
  • the point would normally be in a heart shape
  • the V-shaped cutout pointing towards the floor on an upper edge of the waistband, which makes the back pad look heart-shaped.
  • the shape of the back pad is also roughly pronounced of the blade of a "Frankfurt shovel".
  • the shape of the back pad fits particularly well into a more or less pronounced, anatomically pronounced hollow in the area of the sacrum between the ilium and the lumbar region.
  • the back pad of the waistband system is also designed to prevent sweating by being made of a particularly breathable, i.e. air-permeable, (3D) material or spacer fabric with many pores, as already mentioned above.
  • a particularly breathable, i.e. air-permeable, (3D) material or spacer fabric with many pores as already mentioned above.
  • the inelastic waistband portion of the belt on the back of the pants may have a lumbar portion widened towards the buttocks.
  • a lumbar section widened in this way can preferably extend beyond the inside back pad, i.e. it covers, for example, an area of the waistband on the back of the trousers that is immediately adjacent to the back pad, more precisely in a rear area to the right and left of the back pad and behind it.
  • the entire area, especially on the outside e.g. the outer fabric of the trousers
  • This means that the back pad is optimally pulled against the body over its entire surface when the belt is tightened, so that the trousers with the waistband system are more comfortable but also fit more tightly overall.
  • the widened lumbar section of the inelastic waistband section can have a fabric part on the outside that covers the back pad sewn on the inside.
  • the lumbar section can also have a further curved fabric section that widens the lumbar section beyond the back pad.
  • at least one externally visible boundary or marking seam of the back pad also runs around this fabric section on the back of the trousers, which is visually appealing.
  • the pants can have a monoelastic, preferably bielastic, material section on the back below the inelastic strap integrated into the waistband (preferably below the widened lumbar section and partly around it on the sides).
  • a monoelastic, preferably bielastic, material section on the back below the inelastic strap integrated into the waistband preferably below the widened lumbar section and partly around it on the sides.
  • distal is used whenever one wants to describe a direction "away from the center of the body," ie here, for example, the direction from the buttocks to the feet.
  • the material section on the trousers can have a roughly rectangular outer contour, e.g. roughly in the shape of a "Geestemünde spade blade", so that at least the buttocks area is covered.
  • the material section can be embedded in the adjacent material cuts or cut parts of the trousers in such a way that the edges overlap in such a way that there is an imperceptibly visible overlap between the adjacent areas, whereby a closed surface is formed from a view perpendicular to the material section and the surrounding cut parts of the trousers.
  • the material section can preferably be bi-elastic or bidirectionally elastic, i.e. in the distal and horizontal directions.
  • the elastic material section below the waistband can be advantageously stretched in this stretch area, in particular the joint area, of the garment.
  • the greatest possible mobility and comfort can therefore be guaranteed, especially in the stretch area, such as the buttocks area. Fewer wrinkles form, fewer pressure points or the like arise.
  • the trousers can also have, as is usual with trousers, flat, essentially random, single or multiple doubled material layers, which can be cut from one part, joined together from several parts or sewn along seams (quilting seams, waistband seams, hem seams, etc.).
  • the materials for the waistband system can also have the following properties:
  • An outer layer or outer material layer of the garment preferably consists of a durable outer material, which is particularly preferably windproof, water-repellent and breathable.
  • An inner layer or inner material layer of the waistband is preferably designed in such a way that the wearing comfort is increased, ie it prevents the garment from chafing and allows for balanced perspiration.
  • the invention is therefore particularly suitable for functional or operational clothing. If a heat-resistant material is used as the inelastic outer material, the invention can be used not only in police, military or technical relief operations, but also in high temperatures, such as when the fire service is fighting fires.

  • the trouser waistband system 1 according to the invention the lower part of the trousers below the knees does not play an essential role. For the sake of simplicity, this part is therefore not shown in any of the figures.
  • the trouser waistband system 1 comprises, in addition to a circumferential trouser waistband 10, a slightly curved or ergonomically running strap 40, which runs parallel, at least in sections, around the outside of the trouser waistband 10 and with which the trouser waistband 10 can be fixed, adjusted or tightened like a "belt". Furthermore, the trouser waistband system 1 comprises a back pad 60 on the inside of a rear side RS of the trousers in the area of the trouser waistband 10, which will be explained in more detail later.
  • the said waistband 10 is subdivided along its waistband direction HR, i.e. a horizontal longitudinal direction of the waistband 10, into several waistband sections 11a, 11b, 15, 20l, 20r, which can be seen particularly well from the schematic plan view of the horizontal section through the waistband system 1 according to Figure 4 is evident.
  • an inelastic waistband section 11a, 11b which is additionally widened in an arc and also runs around the inside back pad 60 at the bottom, which combines the waistband 10 and the strap 40 in sections (on the rear side RS of the trousers H) into one part.
  • This waistband section 11a, 11b runs from the rear side RS to the sides of the trousers H, being widest slightly outside the middle (along the upper edge of the waistband 10 perpendicular to the direction of the waistband HR at the beginning and end of a V-neck 60v of the back pad 60) of the rear side RS of the trousers H.
  • the said strap 40 is therefore part of the waistband 10 there (on the rear side RS of the trousers H), i.e. is integrated into the waistband 10.
  • the said waistband section 11a, 11b is at least visually divided into two fabric parts or fabric sections by means of a marking seam or boundary seam in order to visually indicate the inside back pad 60 on the back RS.
  • the waistband section 11b can also consist of a specially sewn-on or sewn-in fabric cut, preferably of a (possibly different colored) material with the same properties, in particular of the same material as the rest of the adjacent waistband section 11a.
  • the elastic waistband sections 15 of the waistband 10 and on the outside the main belt sections 41 of the belt 40, as in Figure 4 can be seen particularly well.
  • the above-mentioned sections 15, 20l, 20r along the trouser waistband direction HR of the trouser waistband 10 continue the inside trouser waistband 10 of the trouser waistband system 1 towards the front.
  • the above-mentioned belt 40 extends parallel to the just mentioned inner elastic waistband sections 15 into a front area of the trousers H and runs around it at the front.
  • the belt 40 also comprises two adjoining or merging sections 41, 42, which are guided in the middle of the front VS of the trousers H through a middle part 50 and back out again, as can be seen from Figure 4 is particularly easy to see. This means that when the strap 40 is tightened, no creases or the like are formed. In other words, the strap 40 and the layers of material underneath can be tightened around the waistband 10 at the sides and front without creases.
  • a main (side and partly front) part of the belt 40 is made up of the two so-called main belt sections 41 of the belt 40, which on the front VS of the trousers H each end in the middle in a left and right so-called belt end section 42.
  • the belt end sections 42 are in the non-fastened state (see e.g. Figure 1 ) of the belt 40 do not engage with each other or themselves connected, i.e. secured against themselves. However, to secure the belt 40, they can be stapled against the main belt sections 41.
  • the belt end sections 42 can therefore, for example, be threaded through the middle section 50 and stapled to the main belt sections 41 by means of a Velcro connection.
  • a respective belt end section 42 can be provided with a hook strip 44 and the associated main belt section 41 on the radially outer side with a fleece strip 43, or vice versa. I.e. In an outwardly folded state of the respective belt end section 42, the fleece strip 43 on the main belt section 41 faces the hook strip 44 of the belt end section 42, so that they engage with each other in a force-fitting manner when pressure is applied.
  • the belt 40 can have the already mentioned middle part 50 for an even more variable adjustable connection, which can essentially be adjusted with one hand, which, as already mentioned, is arranged on the front side VS of the trousers H between the two belt end sections 42.
  • This essentially consists of a fabric loop 51, which is sewn to a circular closed material layer 52f, 52n, as in particular also in Figure 5 can be seen.
  • the middle part 50 also comprises two ring loops 53 which are enclosed or threaded into the fabric loop 51.
  • the two ring loops 53 (e.g.
  • the ring loops 53 are not only located at two opposite points on the fabric loop 51 when under tension, e.g. when used with threaded and outwardly folded belt end sections 42, they are each sewn or enclosed in a seam transverse to the fabric loop direction (parallel to their main direction of extension) laterally in the right and left end sections of the fabric loop 51.
  • the two ring loops 53 are intended to enable a wearer to easily and conveniently thread the strap end sections 42 through the ring loops 53 and thereby tie them back against the main strap sections 41 by folding them outwards or to secure them in the manner described above, e.g. using a Velcro fastener.
  • the fabric loop 51 is "compressed” (flat) parallel to the trouser waistband direction HR or is pulled apart or flat in the trouser waistband direction HR so that the fabric loop 51 is more like two directly in front of each other, in horizontal section essentially elliptical (see Figure 3 )
  • Material layers 52n, 52f form a real circle.
  • a material layer 52f facing away from the trousers or far from the trousers is smooth and visually appealing.
  • a fastening eyelet 52l or a buttonhole 52l is incorporated or formed.
  • the buttonhole 52l is, as usual, a short, narrow slit with which the fabric loop 51 can be attached to the waistband 10, more precisely to a trouser button 22b of the waistband 10, such as the trouser button 22b mentioned above.
  • the trouser button 22b mentioned above in addition to closing the trouser waistband 10, also ensures that the fabric loop 51 of the middle part 50 can be attached to it for advantageous attachment of the belt 40.
  • the above-mentioned back pad 60 of the trouser waistband system 1 extends over a large area, in one piece in the form of a semicircle or a heart along the circumference of the wearer's body in a horizontal and vertical direction on the inside of the back RS of the trousers H.
  • Perpendicular to the trouser waistband direction HR or to a resulting plane of the trouser waistband 10 (from the back RS to the front VS of the trousers H, i.e. in the direction of the trouser fly 21), it describes a pad that becomes thicker in an arc from the sides to the center, as shown in the top view of the horizontal section through the trouser waistband 10 according to Figure 4 is particularly easy to recognize.
  • the back pad 60 shown here is preferably a padding element integrated into the waistband 10, as can be seen from the EN 10 2016 103 588 A1 It is therefore a cushioning element with at least one spacer fabric or woven fabric that is surrounded or wrapped by a fabric layer.
  • the trouser waistband 10 In concrete terms, it consists of four textile layers, ie an outer fabric layer, a first Spacer fabric, a second spacer fabric and again an outer fabric layer which, as already described in detail therein, are arranged parallel to one another and adjacent to one another in order to fill the more or less pronounced hollow in the lumbar region of a wearer of the trouser waistband system 1, so that the trouser waistband 10 has less play and the trouser waistband system 1 slips as little as possible.
  • four textile layers ie an outer fabric layer, a first Spacer fabric, a second spacer fabric and again an outer fabric layer which, as already described in detail therein, are arranged parallel to one another and adjacent to one another in order to fill the more or less pronounced hollow in the lumbar region of a wearer of the trouser waistband system 1, so that the trouser waistband 10 has less play and the trouser waistband system 1 slips as little as possible.
  • the trousers H on the front VS comprise, in addition to the already mentioned essential features in the hip and waist area, for example to the right and left of the fly 21, at least two trouser pockets, as is also usual for most trousers.
  • the trousers H can also have Figure 2 shown rear side RS have such trouser pockets. These would then, however, be designed accordingly from the base material present at these points, ie below the back pad in the area of an elastic material section 70, for example also from an elastic material, as will be explained later.
  • the device described in detail above is merely an embodiment which could be modified in a variety of ways by a person skilled in the art without departing from the scope of the invention.
  • the invention is not limited to a specific type of trousers, such as long trousers, shorts, pants suits, etc., or to a specific intended use, but can be used with any type of trousers.
  • the design according to the invention is particularly advantageous in the field of tactical clothing for professionals, such as the police, military, special forces, etc., as this is where its advantages really come into their own.
  • the use of the indefinite articles "a” or “an” does not exclude the possibility that the relevant features may be present multiple times.
  • the terms “arrangement”, “element” and “system” do not exclude the possibility that the relevant component consists of several interacting subcomponents, which may also be spatially distributed.
