Description

The present invention relates to lower-body clothing typified by leggings and tights made of knitted fabric. Clothing called trousers, slacks, etc., which are relatively long and worn (sometimes described as wearing) with one leg in each of the two divided cylinders. The present invention relates to a lower-body garment that can sufficiently prevent the lower-body garment from clinging to pants when worn. The lower-body garments according to the present invention include not only pantyhose-type clothing, but also spats, leggings, and torenka, which lack a part of the pantyhose-type (the part above the ankle, the panty portion, etc.). It also includes those having a shape. Further, hereinafter, the “leg” may be described as a portion from the crotch portion to the knee or ankle, and the “foot” may be described as a portion from the ankle to the tip of the foot (toe).

Tights, which are an example of clothing for the lower body, are worn exclusively in the winter, and emphasize heat retention (including the ability to make the wearer feel warm). There are interwoven types of covering yarn and nylon filament textured yarn, and so-called zokki type with 100% covering yarn.

After wearing such tights, there are cases in which relatively long pants are worn to go out. If you wear relatively long pants and patterned tights, the patterned tights are knitted from the crotch to the ankles, so if you wear pants that don't have a slippery lining, your thighs will be stretched. There is a drawback that the tights and pants do not slide well at the bottom and the pants are uncomfortable to wear. In view of such circumstances, Japanese Utility Model Registration No. 3044071 (Patent Document 1) can give a patterned appearance to the feet and improve the sliding with pants even when wearing pants. , and tights including pantyhose and stockings that are comfortable to wear. The tights disclosed in Patent Document 1 are partially provided with a patterned knitted portion at least from the lower calf to the ankle in the range from the knee to the toe of the leg, and the plain knitted portion other than the patterned knitted portion. It is characterized by

Utility Model Registration No. 3044071

However, in Patent Document 1, the tights on the thighs and the pants do not slip easily, so that the pants are uncomfortable to wear. That is, the part surrounding the thigh is knitted in a plain fabric, and the fabric is knitted with a smooth texture similar to that of ordinary pantyhose. I'm just doing it. This cannot sufficiently solve the above-described drawbacks, and cannot sufficiently prevent the lower-body garment from clinging to the pants when wearing tights and pants.

The present invention has been developed in view of the above-mentioned problems, and its object is to sufficiently prevent the lower body clothing from clinging to the pants when the lower body clothing is worn and the pants are also worn. To provide a lower-body garment capable of preventing

In order to achieve the above object, the lower-body garment according to the present invention employs the following technical means.
That is, a garment for the lower body according to the present invention is a garment for the lower body that includes leg portions that cover at least the legs from the crotch portion to below the knees or ankles, and when the pants are worn with the garment for the lower body, the above-mentioned A garment for the lower body that prevents it from clinging to pants, wherein the garment for the lower body is knitted with a front yarn and a back yarn, and the back yarn adopts a covering yarn that uses polyurethane as a core yarn and nylon as a winding yarn. and a cupra is adopted for the front yarn.
Preferably, the garment for the lower body can be constructed of a knitted fabric knitted with a high gauge with a needle number of 200N or more.

According to the garment for the lower body according to the present invention, it is possible to sufficiently prevent the garment for the lower body from clinging to the pants when the garment for the lower body is worn and the pants are further worn.

1 is a schematic front view of tights according to an embodiment of the present invention; FIG.

BEST MODE FOR CARRYING OUT THE INVENTION A tights 1 according to an embodiment of the present invention will be described in detail below with reference to the drawings. It should be noted that the garment for the lower body (hereinafter sometimes referred to as tights) according to the present invention includes not only a pantyhose type like the tights 1 shown in FIG. It also includes those with names such as spats, leggings, and torenka, which are missing the part of the body, the panty part, etc. Moreover, there are various structures and manufacturing methods for such tights, and the present invention is not limited to a specific structure and manufacturing method. That is, any tights may be used as long as they have the characteristics described later (knitted by high-gauge plating knitting (plating knitting) using specific front and back yarns). For example, the knitting yarn and knitting structure (other than the characteristics described later) of the knitted fabric constituting the tights and the type of knitting machine (other than the characteristics described later) for knitting the tights may be of any kind. Therefore, tights 1, which are an example of tights shown below, are merely illustrative, except for the features described below.

FIG. 1 shows a schematic front view of tights 1 according to the present embodiment. The tights 1 are composed of a panty portion 3 covering the abdomen and buttocks, legs (more precisely, the legs from the crotch to the ankles and the ankles to the toes ( and a leg portion 2 covering the foot (toe). The tights 1 use a pair of knitted fabrics knitted in a tubular shape, cut a part corresponding to the panty part 3, put the cut edges together, and sew the crotch part 4 to be integrated. Manufactured by Also, the toe portion of the foot is manufactured by sewing in a bag shape by well-known means. In the present embodiment, the object is described as tights, but leggings (up to the ankle and not covering the foot from the ankle to the toe) etc., which partially have the function, are included as described above. is.

Characteristically, the tights 1 are provided with a panty section 3 covering the abdomen and buttocks, and a leg section 2 covering the legs (at least from the crotch region to the knees or ankles). To prevent the tights 1 from clinging to the pants when wearing the pants. Further, (the whole of) the tights 1 is composed of a knitted fabric knitted with a front yarn and a back yarn, and the back yarn adopts a covering yarn with polyurethane as the core yarn and nylon as the winding yarn. Cupra is used for the thread.

Further, the tights 1 are made of a knitted fabric knitted by (a knitting machine of) a high gauge with a number of needles of 200N or more (preferably 300N or more, more preferably 320N or more). Here, the unit abbreviation N is the number of needles in a knitting machine such as a sock knitting machine (gauge number: N=Needle=number of needles in the knitting machine). The gauge (unit abbreviation G) is a unit that represents the coarseness and fineness of the stitches in the knitting structure (knitted fabric). It is calculated by how many knitting needles (needles) are in The normal number of needles most commonly used for clothing for the lower body (here, socks) is called the middle gauge, and is 132N to 172N. It is roughly divided into low gauge (48N to 120N), which is smaller than this middle gauge, and high gauge (200N or more), which is knitted more tightly with finer yarn than this middle gauge and has more stitches per inch square. As described above, the garment for the lower body according to the present invention, including the tights 1 according to the present embodiment, is knitted by a high gauge (a knitting machine) having a larger gauge number (abbreviated unit notation N) than a normal middle gauge. . In the present invention, "knitting with a high gauge" and "knitting with a high gauge knitting machine" are synonymous.

Here, the reason why cupra is adopted as the surface yarn (the yarn exposed on the surface opposite to the skin when the tights 1 are worn) in the plating knitting of the tights 1 will be described. Cupra is a cellulose fiber (regenerated fiber), also called cuprammonium rayon, which has excellent moisture absorption and desorption properties, and is superior in durability and abrasion resistance compared to general rayon (viscose rayon). Furthermore, in detail, cupra is
(1) It is smooth and slippery like silk, and is most suitable for thin fabrics, and is often used mainly as a lining for clothing.
(2) Very good hygroscopicity and moisture-releasing properties, very little generation of static electricity (because the fiber contains a large amount of water) and exhibits an antistatic effect.
(3) Since it is a cellulose fiber, it is heat resistant, does not soften or melt with heat, and has higher abrasion resistance and durability than general rayon (viscose rayon).
(4) Since it is also compatible with other fibers, it can be combined by blended spinning, mixed fiber, mixed fiber, and mixed knitting.

Because cupra with such characteristics was adopted as the front thread of tights 1,
(A) The fabric of pants as an outer facing the knitted fabric of tights 1 (cupra surface yarn) because the fibers (cupra) constituting the knitted fabric of tights 1 (cupra surface yarn) have an antistatic effect (e.g. wool or wool blends),
and/or
(B) The fibers (cupra) that make up the knitted fabric (front yarn is cupra) of the tights 1 are smooth and slippery and do not fluff, so that the fibers that make up the fabric of the pants as outerwear (for example, wool or wool blend) By not causing entanglement with fluff,
It is possible to sufficiently prevent the tights 1 from clinging to the pants. That is, when the tights 1 are worn and pants as outerwear are further worn, the surface of the tights 1, which is the cupra, is exposed on the surface opposite to the skin (surface), and the surface of the tights 1 is less likely to be charged. , the tights 1 do not cling to the pants because the surface of the tights 1 slides well.

Next, a covering yarn (typically Technically, the reason for adopting SCY (Single Covered Yen) will be explained.
By exposing the SCY without exposing the cupra on the surface (back surface) that contacts the skin, the cupra does not come into contact with the skin, so the cupra fabric (knitted fabric, woven fabric) has a cool contact feeling (chilly when touched). The characteristics of the cupra fabric that you feel) can be felt on the skin, and the warmth that the tights themselves must have can be realized. In particular, as will be described later, by knitting thick threads as SCY with a high-gauge (knitting machine), the surface that comes into contact with the skin basically becomes more likely to feel warmth.

Next, the reason for knitting with a high gauge (knitting machine) will be explained.
By combining plating knitting and high gauge, and by adopting cupra for the front yarn and SCY (especially thick) for the back yarn, the SCY layer is laminated on the cupra layer (image) tight stitches. A mat-like knitted fabric can be realized. For this reason, the back surface is mat-like and the warmth of the thick SCY can be felt more (without feeling a cool touch feeling), and the surface is mat-like and the antistatic effect of the cupra can be further enhanced.

In addition, when dyeing (SCY) after knitting the tights 1, the cupra that is exposed only on one side (in many cases, the cupra is pre-dyed in the state of yarn) does not lose its dyeability. .
Further detailed knitting of the knitted fabric of the tights 1 is as follows.
Front yarn: cupra (100 denier)
Lining thread: SCY (Core thread: Polyurethane 20 denier, Winding thread: Nylon 70 denier)
Number of needles: 320 high gauge needles (320N) compared to middle gauge (132N to 176N)

As described above, according to the tights 1 according to the present embodiment, the front yarn and the back yarn are knitted by plating knitting with a high gauge (knitting machine) of 200 N or more, and the back yarn is made of polyurethane as a core yarn. Covering yarn (SCY) wound with nylon is used, and cupra is used for the front yarn. Therefore, when the tights 1 are worn, cupra, which is the front thread, is exposed on the surface (surface) opposite to the skin of the tights 1, the surface of the tights 1 is less likely to be charged, and the surface of the tights 1 slides well. Therefore, it is possible to sufficiently prevent the tights 1 from clinging to the pants as outerwear, and the back thread SCY is exposed on the surface (back surface) of the tights 1 that contacts the skin (cupra is To realize a function of feeling the original warmth of tights (especially if it is a thick SCY), without expressing the cool touch feeling of cupra fabric because it is exposed only on the surface and not exposed on the skin contact surface. can be done. The antistatic function of cupra and the warmth expression function of SCY are realized by knitting with a high gauge (knitting machine) to create a mat-like knitted fabric with tight stitches. can be higher.
