Description

[Detailed description of the invention]

[0001]

[Technical field to which the invention belongs]

 The present invention relates to clothing having a breast pocket on the front body and a hook-and-loop fastener used for the clothing.

[0002]

[Prior art]

 Examples of clothes having a breast pocket on the front body include suit suits and shirts. The breast pocket of such clothes often contains items such as cigarettes, lighters, business card holders, and personal organizers.

[0003]

[Problems to be solved by the invention]

 However, unlike the side pockets, the chest pocket, which is located at the top of the front body, tends to have the upper end opening downward when the wearer takes a forward bending posture. Therefore, for example, when leaning on trying to put on shoes or picking up an object dropped on the floor or the ground, the objects in the breast pocket easily fall from the opening at the upper end of the pocket, which is extremely convenient. It was bad.

[0004] Also, especially in the summer, it is hot to walk in a suit, so it is often hot to take off the suit of the suit, turn the front body inside, and fold the suit on your arm in this folded state. In this case, while the upper side opening of the side pocket of the upper garment is directed upward, the chest pocket is directed downward, and there is a risk that articles in the breast pocket may fall.

In some clothes, a flap (lid) is provided in a breast pocket, and the flap is stopped by a button in a state where the opening at the upper end of the pocket is closed (for example, casual shirts, work clothes, etc.). However, the provision of such a flap can prevent the articles in the pocket from falling, but also complicates the structure of the pocket and increases the manufacturing cost of the garment. Also, the flap button must be pressed and removed each time an item is put in or taken out, which is extremely troublesome. Furthermore, depending on the type of clothing, it may not be possible to provide a flap in the breast pocket for external reasons (design), for example, in business suits and business shirts.

[0006] The present invention has been made in view of the above-described problems, and is intended to be applied to a case where a person wearing clothes takes a forward bending posture, and a case where the clothes are folded on an arm. It can prevent the items in the chest pocket from falling, can easily open and close the top opening of the chest pocket, and does not impair the appearance of the garment, so it can be applied to any type of garment, and the manufacturing cost increases slightly. The purpose is to provide clothing that can be completed.

Another object of the present invention is to provide a hook-and-loop fastener which can be easily attached to a breast pocket of conventional clothes and can prevent articles from falling from the breast pocket.

[0008]

[Means for Solving the Problems]

 In order to achieve the above object, a garment according to the present invention includes at least a pair of engaging members detachably engaged with each other on an opposing surface near an upper end opening of the breast pocket in a garment having a breast pocket on a front body. Is provided.

In the above, the engaging member is formed of a hook-and-loop fastener including a loop tape and a hook tape.

[0010] Further, the hook-and-loop fastener according to the present invention is a hook-and-loop fastener used for the garment, wherein the hook-and-loop fastener and the hook tape can be bonded to the fabric of the garment by heating. It is provided with a fusion bonding layer.

[Embodiment of the invention]

 Hereinafter, embodiments of the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings. FIG. 1 shows a shirt 1 (an example of clothes) according to an embodiment of the present invention, in which a breast pocket 3 is provided on a front body 2 of the shirt 1. The breast pocket 3 is formed by adhering a pocket cloth 4 having a predetermined shape to the front body 2 with an admission thread 5.

A hook-and-loop fastener 7 is attached near the upper end opening 6 of the breast pocket 3. As shown in FIG. 2, the hook-and-loop fastener 7 has a pair of loop tape 8 and hook tape 9 (an example of an engaging member) provided on the opposing surface inside the breast pocket 3 slightly below the upper end opening 6. It is composed of

More specifically, the loop tape 8 is formed in a rectangular shape having an appropriate size, and is attached to the front body 2 by the attachment yarn 5. The hook tape 9 is formed in a rectangular shape having the same dimensions as the loop tape 8, and is attached to the pocket cloth 4 at a position facing the loop tape 8 by the attachment thread 5.

In this embodiment, a hook tape 9 is attached to a predetermined position of the pocket cloth 4 before it meets the front body 2, and the upper end of the pocket cloth 4 is folded inward. 4 meets the front body 2. Therefore, not only the hook tape 9 but also the attachment thread 5 for attaching the hook tape 9 are not visible from the outside of the breast pocket 3.

Since the shirt 1 is configured as described above, after the articles are put in the breast pocket 3, the loop tape 8 and the hook tape 9 are engaged with each other to close the upper end opening 6 of the breast pocket 3. If this is done, the articles in the breast pocket 3 will not fall even when the user takes a forward bending posture.

In order to close the upper end opening 6, it is only necessary to lightly press the position where the hook-and-loop fastener 7 is attached from above the breast pocket 3, and to open the upper end opening 6, place a finger on the upper end opening 6. And pulling the chest pocket 3 lightly forward is very easy to open and close.

Further, since only the loop tape 8 and the hook tape 9 of the hook-and-loop fastener 7 are sewn, the structure of the pocket does not become complicated as in the case where a flap is provided in a breast pocket, for example. The manufacturing cost of the device is only slightly increased.

By the way, in the present invention, the engaging member is not visible from the outside of the breast pocket, and does not impair the appearance of the clothes. Therefore, the clothes are not limited to the above-mentioned shirts.For example, the present invention is applied to various kinds of clothes including those in which a flap cannot be provided in a breast pocket for reasons of appearance, such as a suit of a suit, and The article can be prevented from falling from the breast pocket.

FIG. 3 shows an example in which the present invention is applied to a suit 11 of a suit. In the figure, reference numeral 12 denotes a front body, 13 denotes a breast pocket provided at an upper part of the front body 12, 16 denotes an upper end opening of the breast pocket 13, 20 denotes a side pocket provided at a lower part of the front body 12, and 21 denotes a side pocket. The flap of the ket 20 is shown. A hook-and-loop fastener 7 is provided at a position slightly below the upper end opening 16 of the breast pocket 13. As in the case of the wipes 1, the hook-and-loop fastener 7 is constituted by a pair of loop tapes and hook tapes respectively attached to opposing surfaces inside the breast pocket 13, so that detailed illustration thereof is omitted.

In such a suit 11, not only can the article in the breast pocket 13 be prevented from dropping when the wearer takes a forward bending posture, but also the removed suit 11 can be used. Even if the front body 12 is folded inward at the middle part in the height direction and it is folded and carried on an arm in this folded state, it is possible to prevent the articles in the chest pocket 13 facing downward from falling.

FIG. 4 shows a hook-and-loop fastener 7 a according to an embodiment of the present invention. The hook-and-loop fastener 7a includes a pair of loop tape 8a and hook tape 9a. On the surface of the loop tape 8a opposite to the loop surface 8b (engagement surface), a hot-melt adhesive layer 10 is provided. A similar hot-melt adhesive layer 10 is provided on the surface of the hook tape 9a opposite to the hook surface 9b (engaging surface).

The hot-melt adhesive layer 10 is made of a so-called hot-melt adhesive that melts when heated to a predetermined temperature and solidifies when cooled.

Therefore, the loop tape 8a and the hook tape 9a are positioned on the inner facing surface near the upper end opening of the breast pocket of the conventional garment so that the hot-melt adhesive layer 10 and the garment fabric face each other, If an iron set at a predetermined temperature is applied from above on the clothing cloth and pressed and heated and cooled as it is, the hot-melt adhesive layer 10 adheres to the clothing cloth, and the loop tape 8a and the hook tape 9a are attached. Fixed to clothes.

As described above, by using the hook-and-loop fastener 7a, the ready-made garment having the breast pocket can be made into a garment having the same effect as the shirt 1 and the suit 11 of the suit. For example, it is easier to attach the loop tape 8a and the hook tape 9a to the clothes as compared with a case where the garment yarn is used, and the garment yarn may appear outside the breast pocket and impair the appearance of the clothes. Absent.

In the present invention, the engaging member is not limited to the hook-and-loop fastener, and may be, for example, a pair of engaging members that are detachably engaged by sticking to each other. However, in this case, it is necessary that the adhesiveness between the engaging members does not decrease due to washing or the like.
