DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a stretchable garment and a sewing method thereof, and more particularly, to a stretchable garment mainly including a cylindrical body made of stretchable fabric and a sewing method thereof.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art When performing various operations such as walking, bending, and spreading, the human body moves legs, arms, and the like as shown in FIG. Such a sewn product such as clothing that wraps the human body must be able to easily follow the movements of the feet and arms shown in FIG. Clothes that cannot easily follow such movements of the feet and arms give the wearer a feeling of oppression or cramping. This will be described with reference to a skirt. In the tight skirt shown in FIG. 5A, a slit 100 is provided to facilitate walking of a wearer. Even if such a slit 100 is provided, walking of the wearer is still regulated. For this reason, a wearer who wants to walk more freely is in a space where the cloth forming the clothes is separated from the wearer's body, such as a semi-flared skirt shown in FIG. 5B or a flare skirt shown in FIG. 5C. Wear clothes that can spread.

[0003]

As described above, by wearing a garment in which the cloth forming the garment can widen the space away from the body of the wearer, the wearer's feeling of oppression and cramping can be reduced. However, since the cloth forming the clothes can expand the space away from the wearer's body, the cloth forming the clothes generally has a larger amount of cloth compared to the clothes that adhere to the wearer's body. The wearer may feel heavy. In particular, in winter clothing in which a thick cloth is used, the wearer of the clothing with a large amount of cloth tends to feel the weight. In addition, clothes that allow the cloth forming the clothes to widen the space away from the wearer's body are so-called dub-dub clothes, which tend to be unnatural in appearance, and that a part of the clothes is entangled with the feet or the like. Instead, they may regulate the behavior of the wearer. In particular, for a person with a disability or the like, when the user moves while sitting in a wheelchair, dub dub clothes may be caught in wheels, which may be dangerous.

[0004] In the conventional sewing method of clothes, the cutting pattern of the cut cloth 104 cut in the cutting step of the cloth 102 includes a curved portion, like the cutting pattern of the sleeve shown in FIG. The curved portion of the cutting pattern is
This is because, when sewing is performed on the sleeve, the obtained sleeve is cut so as to fit the arm of the wearer. As shown in FIG. 6, if the cutting pattern includes a curved portion, the remaining portion of the cutting material 104 is only used as an end piece for a rag for wiping oil, and is a waste of resources. Moreover, in order to obtain a comfortable feeling of wearing clothes, it is necessary to prepare clothes that match the body shape, but since the body shape of the wearer changes with aging and childbirth, always wear clothes that match the body shape. Aligning is extremely difficult. Therefore, an object of the present invention is to
It is an object of the present invention to provide a stretchable garment that can reduce a feeling of pressure or cramping given to a wearer even when it is in close contact with a wearer's body, and that is less likely to be cut off, and a sewing method thereof.

[0005]

As a result of repeated investigations to solve the above-mentioned problems, the present inventor has a stretchability that is at least tripled when a load of 3.8 kg / m ² is applied. The garment obtained by sewing the stretchable fabric using the cut fabric cut in a straight line reduces the feeling of pressure and cramping of the wearer compared to the garment obtained using conventional fabric. The present inventors have found that it is possible and that it is difficult for the end to be cut off during the sewing process, and arrived at the present invention. That is, according to the present invention, the portion mainly forming the stretchable garment is formed by a tubular body made of stretchable cloth having a diameter substantially equal to the hip size of the wearer, and the tubular body has a diameter of 3 mm in the radial direction. A stretchable garment characterized in that it has stretchability to be stretched at least three times when a load of 0.8 kg / m ² is applied. The present invention also provides a method for cutting the stretchable fabric into a substantially straight line, sewing the cut fabric without substantially stretching it, and having a diameter substantially equal to the wearer's hip size and 3.8 kg / diameter in the radial direction. When a load of m ² is applied, a tubular body exhibiting at least three times the elasticity is formed, and then a stretchable garment having the tubular portion as a main part is sewn. It is also a method. Here, the “load of 3.8 kg / m ² ” applied to the tubular body refers to a load per unit area of the stretchable fabric forming the tubular body.

[0006] In the present invention, as a member such as a sleeve which is attached to a tubular body mainly forming an elastic garment,
When a load of 3.8 kg / m ² is applied, it is obtained by cutting a stretchable fabric having stretchability that is stretched at least three times substantially in a straight line (hereinafter, may be referred to as a straight cut). By using a member such as a cuffed sleeve, it is possible to reduce the cut off as much as possible. In addition, as a stretchable fabric, a silk fabric is used for the warp and the weft, and by using the stretchable fabric in which an elastic yarn such as a urethane elastic yarn is used for the weft, a good elasticity to the touch is obtained. You can get clothes. Here, the extension of the tubular body or the stretchable fabric is
After measuring the dimension (L ₁ ) by applying a light load (W ₁ ) capable of removing a slack or the like without substantially stretching the tubular body or the stretchable fabric, further applying a load (W ₂ ) When the total load of W ₁ ) and the load (W ₂ ) became 3.8 kg / m ² , it was determined by measuring the dimension (L ₂ ) of the tubular body or the stretchable fabric.

[0007] In the garment according to the present invention, the main part is formed of a tubular body made of stretchable fabric having a diameter substantially equal to the hip size, which is the thickest part of the wearer, and this tubular body is When a load of 3.8 kg / m ² is applied in the radial direction, it is expanded at least three times. For this reason, even if the clothes are in close contact with the wearer's body, the clothes can easily follow the wearer's movements, thereby reducing the feeling of oppression or cramping given to the wearer. In addition, the tubular body forming the main part of the garment can be formed by stretching the stretchable fabric substantially in a straight line, and the entire stretchable fabric can be fully utilized, so that the cut ends can be reduced as much as possible.

[0008]

DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS In a stretchable garment according to the present invention, it is necessary that a portion mainly forming the stretchable garment be formed of a tubular body made of stretchable cloth having a diameter substantially equal to the hip size of the wearer. It is. In this way, the stretchable garment in which the main part is formed by the tubular body having a diameter substantially equal to the hip size, which is the thickest part of the wearer, can be easily worn by the wearer. Moreover, this cylindrical body can be obtained by sewing one or a plurality of rectangular cut fabrics, and can be cut without cutting off the stretchable fabric.
In addition, the sewn cylindrical body is 3.8 kg /
When a load of m ² (load per unit of the stretchable fabric forming the tubular body) is applied, it is necessary to exhibit stretchability that can be stretched at least three times. According to the stretchable garment whose main part is a tubular body having such stretchability, the wearer can easily follow the movement of the wearer.

As the stretchable fabric for forming such stretchable garment, use is made of a stretchable fabric which is stretched at least three times when a load of 3.8 kg / m ² is applied.
Such a stretchable fabric is a fabric in which a silk thread is used for a warp and a weft, and a sufficient width is applied to the stretchable fabric in which an elastic yarn such as a urethane elastic yarn is used for a weft. Can be obtained by In this way, by using silk threads, stretchable garments having a good touch can be obtained. In this stretchable fabric, the mixing ratio of the elastic yarn such as urethane elastic yarn and the silk yarn used for the weft is preferably such that 2 to 4 elastic yarns are mixed with 8 to 12 silk yarns. In addition, the width of the stretchable fabric is set to about 90 ° C. steam about 30 times for the stretchable fabric in the free state.
It can be done by spraying for about a minute. After adding a softener to the width-stretched stretchable fabric, the fabric was softened, air-dried, and then set to a required width under low tension to apply a load of 3.8 kg / m ² . At this time, it is possible to obtain a stretchable fabric having a predetermined width while having stretchability that is at least tripled. Such a width may be applied in the step of dyeing or finishing the stretchable fabric. In this way, the stretchable fabric which is sufficiently widened can exhibit both the elasticity of the elastic yarn such as urethane elastic yarn and the elasticity of the fabric shrunk by the widening, and have high elasticity. It can exhibit sex. The stretchable fabric may of course be a yarn-dyed product, and may be a synthetic fiber such as a polyester thread instead of a silk thread.

[0010] The elasticity mainly composed of an elastic tubular body which is formed of such an elastic material and which expands at least three times when a load of 3.8 kg / m ² is applied in the radial direction. FIG. 1 illustrates that clothes can easily follow the wearer's movements. The skirt 10 worn by the wearer W shown in FIG. 1 is a cylindrical tight skirt having a diameter substantially equal to the hip size of the wearer W, and has no slit. The skirt 10 is formed of stretchable fabric and has a radius of 3.8 k in the radial direction.
When a load of g / m ² (a load per unit of the stretchable fabric forming the skirt 10) is applied, the stretch is performed at least three times. Thereafter, when the load is removed, the skirt 10 stretched by the load contracts and substantially returns to its original size. By the way, when the normal wearer W spreads both legs to the maximum in the directions opposite to each other (arrows A and B), the width of the spread is approximately three times the hip size of the wearer W. In this regard, the skirt 10 shown in FIG. 1 can easily spread to the positions of 10 'and 10' when the wearer W spreads both legs to the maximum, and does not hinder the movement of the wearer W. . Therefore, the wearer W can walk smoothly without being obstructed by the skirt 10. Here, when a degree of extension of the skirt is less than three times when a load of 3.8 kg / m ² is applied to the skirt in a radial direction, an action such as walking of the wearer W is performed.
It becomes easy to be hindered by the skirt.

Since the skirt 10 shown in FIG. 1 is a cylindrical tight skirt having a diameter substantially equal to the hip size of the wearer W, it is in close contact with the body of the wearer W. The walking of the wearer W is not hindered. For this reason, the amount of cloth of the skirt 10 shown in FIG. 1 can be reduced as compared with clothes that widen the space away from the wearer's body, such as a flare skirt, in order to facilitate the movement of the wearer W, such as walking. The wearer W can wear the light skirt 10. Furthermore, since the skirt 10 is in close contact with the body of the wearer W, the appearance is also natural, and the behavior of the wearer W is not restricted because a part of the clothes is entangled with the feet or the like. For this reason, when a person with a disability or the like sits in a wheelchair and moves, it is possible to prevent clothes from being caught in the wheels and to improve safety.

Next, when a load of 3.8 kg / m ² is applied in the radial direction, a cylindrical body having elasticity that is at least tripled when a load of 3.8 kg / m ² is applied is used as a main part. Another example of clothing will be described with reference to FIG. FIG.
Is an example of sewing tops such as blouses. First,
As shown in FIG. 2 (a), when a load of 3.8 kg / m ² is applied, the stretchable fabric having at least three times the stretchability is cut into two rectangular cut fabrics 12. , 1
2 is sewn to form a cylindrical body 14 having a diameter substantially equal to the hip size of the wearer W. Two stitches 16, 16 are formed on the cylindrical body 14. At the time of this sewing, the two cut fabrics 12 and 12 are sewn without substantially extending. When the cut fabrics 12 are sewn while being stretched, the obtained cylindrical body 14 may have reduced elasticity in the radial direction.

As shown in FIG. 2B, sleeves 18, 18 are attached to the obtained cylindrical body 14 using seams 16, 16, respectively. The sleeves 18 and 18 cut the elastic fabric of the same fabric as the cylindrical body 14, that is, the stretch fabric having elasticity that is stretched at least three times when a load of 3.8 kg / m ² is applied. It is obtained by sewing a rectangular cut cloth obtained as described above into a cylindrical shape. The cylindrical sleeve portion 18 made of the elastic fabric having such high elasticity can easily follow the movement of the wearer while keeping in close contact with the wearer's arm. In addition, sleeve 1
As shown in FIG. 2C, a neck 20 is attached to the cylindrical body 14 to which the electrodes 8 and 18 have been attached. Since the neck portion 20 has a smaller diameter than the cylindrical body 14, the neck 20 can be attached by reducing the diameter while forming a fold or the like on the upper part of the cylindrical body 14.

In FIG. 2, in order to meet the neck portion 20, the diameter is reduced while forming a fold or the like on the upper portion of the cylindrical body 14.
(A) As shown in FIG.
May be used. This figure 3
As shown in FIG. 3 (b), two pieces of the cut cloth 22 shown in FIG. 3 (a) are joined together by seams 16 and 16 to form a cylindrical body 14, thereby forming an attachment hole 24 where the neck 20 can be attached. Can be formed. It is preferable that the portions where the corners 21 and 21 are cut are prevented from fraying with double-sided tape.

According to the stretchable garment shown in FIGS. 1 to 3, the main part is a cylindrical body 14 having a diameter substantially equal to the hip size of the wearer. When a load of 8 kg / m ² (load per unit area of the stretchable fabric forming the cylindrical body 14) is applied, the stretchable fabric stretches at least three times, so that it adheres to the body of the wearer. The wearer can easily follow the movement of the wearer, and can reduce the feeling of oppression or cramping given to the wearer. Such elastic clothing can reduce the amount of cloth as compared to clothing that expands the space away from the body of the wearer, because it can reduce interference with the wearer's walking and other actions while being in close contact with the wearer's body. The wearer can wear light clothing. In particular, the weight of winter clothes can be reduced as much as possible, and it is possible for a person with a disability or the like to eliminate the danger that clothes will be caught in wheels when moving while sitting on a wheelchair. Further, the cylindrical body 14 can be formed by cutting the stretchable fabric into a straight line, and the entire stretchable fabric can be sufficiently used, so that the cut ends can be reduced as much as possible, and the effective use of the stretchable fabric can be achieved. Can be achieved.
In addition, in the stretchable garment shown in FIGS. 1 to 3, the main part of the garment exhibits great elasticity, so that it can sufficiently absorb even if the body shape of the wearer changes. Therefore, it is not necessary to prepare clothes of various sizes in advance for the same clothes.

[0016]

According to the stretchable garment of the present invention, even if it is in close contact with the body of the wearer, it is possible to reduce the feeling of oppression and cramping given to the wearer, and it is generated during the sewing process. Since the number of cut edges can be reduced as much as possible, it is possible to effectively utilize the stretchable fabric. Further, even if the body shape of the wearer changes, it can be sufficiently absorbed, and the types of sizes to be prepared for the same clothes can be reduced, so that it is easy to secure a storage space and the like.
