Description

  The present invention relates to an outer garment, a shirt, trousers, an undergarment, and other garments, and more particularly to an garment having a function of shielding electromagnetic waves emitted from a mobile phone.

  Mobile phones have become popular as one of the communication means. A mobile phone converts voice or the like into electromagnetic waves using a mobile phone, transmits it to a base station, connects to the base station of the other party via the exchange from the base station, and further connects the mobile phone of the other party to the other party's base station. An electromagnetic wave is transmitted to the telephone to make a call. Therefore, electromagnetic waves are transmitted from the mobile phone during a call. Also, electromagnetic waves are transmitted from the mobile phone during so-called standby.

Mobile phones are often carried in pants pockets or chest pockets. Here, as described above, since the electromagnetic wave is transmitted from the mobile phone even in the standby state, there is a concern about health problems due to the electromagnetic wave.
For example, when a mobile phone is carried in a pants pocket, the mobile phone is in a position close to the testicles or ovaries. There is concern that sperm and eggs may be killed or malformed by electromagnetic waves transmitted at this time. There is also concern that the cells that produce sperm may have been killed or malformed by the effects of electromagnetic waves. Pregnant women in particular have a concern of adversely affecting the fetus.

According to a researcher's report on the influence of a mobile phone on the human body, for example, the fever of the brain when using a mobile phone is in a negligible range, and health damage due to the fever does not occur.
Regarding the carcinogenicity of electromagnetic waves, there is a study of the “International Electromagnetic Field Project” that evaluates the health and environmental impact of electromagnetic waves launched by WHO in May 1996. It is denied.
From these research results, it is said that there is currently no health hazard from mobile phones.

  However, mobile phones are products that have just been developed. For this reason, there is no data on the presence or absence of disability in long-term use, and there is no evidence that it can be determined that there is no health hazard due to long-term use.

In recent years, mobile phone heart pacemakers (hereinafter simply referred to as pacemakers) are worried. That is, a pacemaker is a medical device that is implanted in the body and sends a weak electrical signal to the myocardium to improve the heart rate of the heart to a state suitable for daily life. Therefore, the cardiac pacemaker generates an electrical signal at a constant cycle.
However, when the pacemaker is exposed to strong magnetism or electromagnetic waves, the cycle of transmitting an electric signal may be out of order or the electric signal may be weakened.
For this reason, when a mobile phone is used in the vicinity of a pacemaker wearer, the pacemaker is abnormal, and in some cases, the user may be fainted.

  Therefore, an object of the present invention is to develop clothing that can relieve anxiety about the health of mobile phone users and pacemaker users.

  The invention according to claim 1 for solving the above-described problem has at least one of a film in which a metal foil layer and a resin layer are laminated, or an electromagnetic wave protection fabric in which metal yarn is woven. It is clothing characterized by.

  For example, it is recommended to provide carbon layers on the front and back surfaces.

  A seventh aspect of the present invention is the garment according to any one of the first to sixth aspects, wherein the film contains a mixture of different types of metal layers.

Furthermore, the film may have an aluminum layer and an iron layer.
Since the aluminum layer has a high function of shielding electromagnetic waves, and the iron layer has a high function of shielding magnetism, a synergistic effect by laminating both is high.

  Moreover, the film may have an aluminum layer and a silver layer.

  The frequency range in which the aluminum layer and the silver layer effectively shield electromagnetic waves are different. Therefore, by laminating both, a frequency region with a low shielding effect can be supplemented.

  Moreover, you may provide a copper layer in a film.

  The invention according to claim 8 is the garment according to any one of claims 1 to 7, wherein the film has a sewable strength.

Hereinafter, embodiments of the present invention will be described.
FIG. 1 is a front view of a pant (for boys) according to an embodiment of the present invention. FIG. 2 is a front view of a panty (for girls) according to another embodiment of the present invention. FIG. 3 is an enlarged cross-sectional view of a laminated film.

  The pants 1 shown in FIG. 1 is a trunks type, and has a trunk insertion part 2 and foot insertion parts 3 and 4 in the same manner as known ones, and covers the testicles and penis. And in this embodiment, the laminated | multilayer film 10 is piled up and attached to the cloth of the area (hatching part) equivalent to a testicle.

  Moreover, the panty 5 shown in FIG. 1 has a laminated film 10 attached to a cloth in an area (hatched portion) corresponding to the uterus or ovary.

  In the present embodiment, the laminated film 10 is attached to the surface (outside) of the cloth constituting the pants 1 and the panty 5 by sewing.

Here, the laminated film 10 is, for example, equivalent to a material for a snack candy bag, and is formed by laminating an aluminum foil layer 12 and a resin layer 13 as shown in FIG.
Here, the thickness of the aluminum foil layer 12 is desirably 8 μm or more, and further recommended to be 18 μm or more. That is, when the thickness of the aluminum foil layer 12 is less than 8 μm, the function of shielding electromagnetic waves is not sufficient. If the thickness of the aluminum foil layer 12 is 18 μm or more, even an electromagnetic wave having a considerable strength can be shielded, and the reliability is high.
The above-described laminated film 10 has a two-layer structure, but may have a structure of three or more layers. An example having three or more layers will be described later.

  The material of the resin layer is arbitrary and may be any known resin that can be formed into a film. For example, a resin such as cellophane, polyethylene, stretched polypropylene, non-stretched polypropylene, polyethylene terephthalate, polyvinylidene chloride-coated biaxially-stretched polypropylene, K-coated polyethylene terephthalate, or ethylene vinyl alcohol copolymer can be used.

  A cloth (electromagnetic wave protection cloth) 11 in which metal yarns are woven may be used instead of the laminated film. It is recommended that the metal yarn be aluminum or silver. The weaving amount of the metal yarn is desirably 10% or more of the total number. The weaving amount of the metal yarn is desirably 50% or less of the total number. The most recommended weaving amount is 25-35%.

  For example, in the case of underwear, the fabric is preferably a plain weave, twill, flannel or other knitted fabric, but may be a knitted fabric.

  In the embodiment described above, an example in which the laminated film 10 and the cloth (electromagnetic wave protection cloth) 11 are provided only in the testicle equivalent part and the ovary equivalent part is shown. It may be provided. Further, the pants may be sewn with the laminated film 10 or the cloth (electromagnetic wave protection cloth) 11.

  Moreover, you may provide the laminated film 10 in underwear other than underpants and panties, for example, a patch, a steteco, a bra. Furthermore, you may provide the laminated film 10 and the cloth (electromagnetic wave protection cloth) 11 in clothes other than underwear. FIG. 4 is a front view of pants according to another embodiment of the present invention. FIG. 5 is an explanatory view showing the inside of the pants shown in FIG.

In the trousers 20 shown in FIG. 4, the pocket 21 is formed by sewing a bag-like member on the inner surface side of the trousers 20 in the same manner as a publicly known one. 10 or a cloth (electromagnetic wave protection cloth) 11 is attached. On the other hand, there is no laminated film 10 or the like in the B area facing outward.
In the trousers 20 of the present embodiment, since the laminated film 10 and the like are attached to the area a facing the human body side of the pocket 21, the electromagnetic waves transmitted from the mobile phone stored in the pocket 21 do not face the human body side, and the testicles Is protected.
On the other hand, since there is no laminated film 10 etc. in the area b facing outward, the mobile phone can receive electromagnetic waves from the outside.

All of the clothes described above are worn on the lower body, but the present invention can also be applied to clothes worn on the upper body such as a jacket. That is, FIG. 6 is a front view of a jacket of another embodiment of the present invention.
In the outer garment 15 of this embodiment, the laminated film 10 or the cloth (electromagnetic wave protection cloth) 11 is used for the lining.
The application of the present invention to clothing worn on the upper body of an outerwear or the like is recommended for a person using an electronic health assist device such as a pacemaker user.

Next, another embodiment of clothing recommended for a pacemaker wearer will be described.
FIG. 7 is a perspective view showing a body of a pacemaker wearer. FIG. 8 shows clothes worn by the pacemaker wearer of FIG.
As is well known, the pacemaker 30 provides an electrical signal to the heart 31 and is implanted in the body of the user. The position where the pacemaker 30 is embedded differs depending on the body shape of the user, and is often embedded in the right chest or the left chest as shown in the figure. A pacemaker may be embedded in the abdomen.

The clothes 32 shown in FIG. 8 are shirts, and the laminated film 10 is sewn on the chest. The position of the laminated film 10 is the left chest part of the clothes, and is the part where the pacemaker 30 is embedded.
It can be said that the larger the size of the laminated film 10 is, the better. However, it is necessary that at least the pacemaker 30 can be covered.
It is recommended that the distances a, b, c, d from the pacemaker 30 to the end of the laminated film 10 are all 11 centimeters or more.
That is, if the distance between the pacemaker 30 and a mobile phone (not shown) is 22 centimeters or more, the pacemaker 30 is not erroneously operated by the radio waves of the mobile phone.

  Here, assuming that there is a mobile phone in front of the laminated film 10 and in the center of the pacemaker 30, the radio wave bypasses the laminated film 10 and reaches the pacemaker 30. Therefore, assuming that there is a mobile phone in the center of the pacemaker 30, the radio wave bypasses the distances a, b, c, and d and reaches the pacemaker 30. Therefore, if the length of the detour is 22 cm or more, the pacemaker 30 will not malfunction due to the influence of the mobile phone. Therefore, as described above, it is recommended that the distances a, b, c, d from the pacemaker 30 to the end of the laminated film 10 are all 11 centimeters or more.

  In this embodiment, the laminated film 10 is provided only on the front side of the body, but it is desirable to provide the laminated film 10 also on the back side.

Next, experiments conducted by the inventors will be described.
In the experiment, a pacemaker was connected to a personal computer, a signal voltage generated by the pacemaker was input to the personal computer, and a graph of the signal voltage and a graph of the signal voltage signal were drawn. A mobile phone was placed near the pacemaker, and the mobile phone was called to receive an incoming call.
As an embodiment of the present invention, a jacket 15 shown in FIG. 6 was put on a pacemaker, and a mobile phone was received in that state. As a comparative example, a mobile phone was received with the outer jacket 15 removed. That is, the outerwear 15 is one in which the laminated film 10 is used for the lining.

The graph in the comparative example is as shown in FIG. The graph in an Example is as FIG. That is, FIG. 9 is a graph showing a pacemaker signal assumed when a mobile phone is used in the vicinity of the pacemaker user. FIG. 10 is a graph showing a pacemaker signal assumed when a mobile phone is used in the vicinity of a pacemaker user when wearing the clothes of the present invention.
Like a craft, when a mobile phone is received with the outer jacket 15 removed, the signal voltage transmitted by the pacemaker is disturbed and the pulse interval becomes irregular. On the other hand, if the pacemaker is put on the outerwear 15, the signal transmitted by the pacemaker is the same before and after the incoming call, and the pulse interval is regular.

Next, a modified example of the laminated film 10 will be described. 11 to 16 are enlarged sectional views of modified examples of the laminated film.
As described above, the laminated film 10 may have a structure of three or more layers. Specifically, a layered structure as shown in FIGS. 11 to 16 is recommended.
That is, the laminated film 10 shown in FIG. 11 is provided with two aluminum vapor deposition layers 16 sandwiching a resin layer 13 such as polyethylene terephthalate or polyethylene, and the resin layer 13 is further laminated on the outer side, and the outermost layer has two surfaces. A carbon layer 80 is laminated. The thickness of the resin layer 13 is 20 to 30 μm, and the aluminum vapor deposition layer 16 is about 100 to 500 angstroms.
Note that an aluminum foil may be employed in place of the aluminum vapor deposition layer 16, and the aluminum foil and the resin layer 13 may be bonded together with an adhesive or the like.
Both the carbon layers 80 on both sides contain a carbon compound having a conjugated double bond.
A carbon compound having a conjugated double bond has a function of absorbing electromagnetic waves, and absorbs electromagnetic waves emitted from a mobile phone.

  A laminated film 10 shown in FIG. 12 has different metal layers, and a copper or silver layer 85 is laminated on the aluminum foil layer 12. The copper or silver layer 85 may be bonded by vapor deposition, or may be pasted together with an adhesive or the like after being formed into a metal foil in advance. In this embodiment, the aluminum foil layer 12 and the copper or silver layer 85 are bonded together with an adhesive (not shown).

In this embodiment, it has a layer of a dissimilar metal and has a high electromagnetic wave shielding function at any frequency. That is, the ability to shield electromagnetic waves is affected by the frequency of the electromagnetic waves to be shielded, but the relationship between the frequency and the shielding ability differs for each metal. For example, aluminum increases the shielding ability as the frequency increases, but when the frequency exceeds a certain value, the shielding ability extremely decreases. In contrast, silver does not show a significant decrease in capacity. On the other hand, aluminum is cheap and silver is expensive.
In this embodiment, since the aluminum layer and the silver layer are provided, the influence of the frequency is reduced, and a stable shielding function is exhibited in any frequency region.

The laminated film 10 shown in FIG. 13 is further provided with an iron layer 82. That is, the laminated film 10 shown in FIG. 13 is provided with an aluminum foil layer 12, a silver layer 81, and an iron layer 82. Between these metal layers 12, 81 and 82, a resin layer 13 such as polyethylene terephthalate is provided, and a carbon layer 80 is provided on the outermost surface via a resin layer 13 such as polyethylene terephthalate. The laminated film 10 of the present embodiment is also provided with the iron layer 82, so that it can shield the magnetism. Further, a lead layer may be added. A lead layer may be provided in place of the iron layer 82 or the silver layer 81.

  Each of the above examples has a complicated laminated structure, but the carbon layer 80 is laminated on one side of the aluminum foil layer 12 as shown in FIG. 14 and the resin layer 13 is laminated on the other side. It may be. Further, a silver or copper layer 85 may be provided in place of the aluminum foil layer 12 as shown in FIG. 15, the carbon layer 80 may be laminated on one side, and the resin layer 13 may be laminated on the other side. Further, as shown in FIG. 16, an iron layer 82 may be provided in place of the aluminum foil layer 12, a carbon layer 80 may be laminated on one side, and a resin layer 13 may be laminated on the other side.
