(Embodiment 1)
FIG. 1 is a perspective view showing work pants according to a first embodiment of the present invention. As shown in FIG. 1 (a), this work pants 100 is composed of an overall type trouser body 1 made of a face material having a waterproof function, and a knee pad 2 provided on the knee portion of the trouser body 1. It The knee rest 2 has a structure that is attachable to and detachable from the knee portion 3. As shown in FIG. 1B, the knee pad 2 has a structure in which a urethane resin having a rectangular shape and a predetermined thickness is wrapped as a cushion material 6 by a cover material 4. A surface tape 5 is provided on the surface of the cover material 4. The surface tape 15 that is paired with the surface tape 5 provided on the knee pad 2 side is provided on the knee portion 3 of the pants body 1. A strap 11 is provided on the pants body 1.

  The face material forming the pants body 1 may be either a cloth material or rubber.

  Since the pants body 1 functions as the work pants 100 if the front surface of both feet is covered, as shown in FIG. 2 (a), the back portion of the part through which the feet pass may be omitted. In this case, for example, a belt 51 is provided on the back side so that the belt 51 can be fixed to the foot. Further, as shown in FIG. 2 (b), only the leg may be passed through. In this case, for example, the band 53 is locked to the belt 52 or the belt loop of the pants worn under.

  As shown in FIG. 3, the cushioning material 6 retains cushioning properties when the knee H1 is crouched and grounded (when the knee H1 is interposed between the knee H1 and the ground G). A constant interval is maintained between and, thereby reducing the load on the knee H1. As the urethane resin as the cushion material 6, it is preferable to use high-density urethane foam, low-resilience urethane foam, or chip urethane.

  The cover member 4 is made of thick cloth, rubber, synthetic resin or the like. Further, when the cover material 4 is made of a material having a texture such as cloth, its surface is subjected to water repellent treatment. Further, a rubber coating may be applied to make it waterproof. By doing so, it is possible to prevent the soil from clogging the eyes. In addition, if the cover material 4 is made of rubber or the like having a waterproof property, it is possible to prevent the clogging of soil with waterproofing.

Further, as shown in FIG. 4A, a protector 20 made of a thin plastic plate that is harder than the material of the pants body 1 may be attached to the surface of the cover member 4. In this case, it is possible to prevent the cushion material 6 of the knee pad 2 from being damaged by stones or trees on the ground.

  Furthermore, as shown in FIG. 4B, a large number of anti-slip projections 21 may be provided on the surface of the cover member 4. Specifically, the plurality of convex portions 21 are formed of rubber or resin and provided on the surface of the cover material 4. As a result, cushioning properties can be obtained and slippage can be prevented. It is also useful when working on slopes or when the ground is wet. The protrusion 21 may be provided on the surface of the protector 20, as shown in FIG.

  As shown in FIG. 5A, the surface tape 5 of the knee pad 2 is provided near the peripheral edge of the cover material 4. The face tape 15 on the knee part 3 side of the pants body 1 corresponding to the face tape 5 is provided at a position where the knee pad 2 is not pulled when the user bends the knee. That is, the distance L1 between the upper side tape 5a and the lower side tape 5b of the surface tape 5 of the knee pad 2 in the vertical direction and the distance L2 between the upper side tape 15a and the lower side tape 15b on the knee portion 3 are the latter. Reduce the space. As a result, as shown in FIG. 5B, when the knee pad 2 is attached to the knee portion 3, the knee portion 3 becomes wrinkled, but when the knee is bent during use, the wrinkle extends and the knee pad 2 It is possible to prevent tension from being generated between the knee portion 3 and the tension tape 5 and 15 and prevent the tape 5 and 15 from coming off.

  Since the knee rest 2 is a separate part from the pants body 1, it can be replaced when it is worn out. Therefore, the work pants 100 can be used until the pants body 1 is consumed. Furthermore, it becomes possible to selectively use another type of knee pad described later according to the use scene.

  FIG. 6 is an explanatory view showing a method of using the work pants of the present invention. The user U wears the knee pad 2 on the knee portion 3 of the pants body 1. Then, the work pants 100 are put on, and the strap 11 of the work pants 100 is hung on the neck and held so as not to fall. In this state, the knee rest 2 is located around the knee H1 of the user U, as shown in FIG. Then, as shown in FIG. 3B, the knee H1 is attached to work in a field or the like. At this time, the knee rest 2 serves as a cushion to protect the knee H1. Especially useful when the ground is hard.

  The knee rest 2 also has a heat insulating function between the ground and the knee H1. In particular, since the ground in winter is cold, heat insulation by the knee pads 2 is very useful. Furthermore, since the momentum when standing up due to the reaction force of the cushion material 6 can be applied, the operation of standing and crouching becomes easier.

  Since the cover material 4 of the knee pad 2 is water repellent and waterproof, moisture from the ground does not reach the work pants 100. Therefore, farm work can be performed comfortably. Even if the cover material 4 is torn, the cushion material 6 inside absorbs moisture, so that it does not reach the inside of the work pants 100.

  The user U removes the knee pad 2 from the pants body 1 and replaces it with a new one when the cushion material 6 of the knee pad 2 is sagging or the protective cover is damaged. Since the knee pad 2 is attached to the pants body 1 with the surface tape 5 and is detachable, the replacement of the knee pad 2 is extremely easy.

  As described above, according to the work pants 100 of the present invention, it is possible to comfortably perform the agricultural work while protecting the knees of the user U by the knee pads 2.

(Embodiment 2)
FIG. 7 is a perspective view showing work pants according to a second embodiment of the present invention. This work pants 200 includes an overall type pants body 1 having a waterproof function and a knee pad 2 provided on a knee portion 3 of the pants body 1. By storing the knee rest 2 in the pocket 201 provided in the knee portion 3, the knee rest 2 has a substantially removable structure. The knee pad 2 has a configuration in which a rectangular cushion material (urethane resin or the like) having a predetermined thickness is wrapped with a cover material 4. The upper portion of the pocket 201 is open and can be closed by the lid 202. The cushion material may be put in the pocket 201 as it is without being covered with the cover material 4.

  The material of the surface of the pocket 201 is made of thick cloth, rubber, synthetic resin, or the like. Further, when it is made of a material having a texture such as cloth, its surface is subjected to a water repellent treatment. If the material itself such as rubber has waterproofness, clogging of soil can be prevented. Similarly, the cover member 4 is also made of thick cloth, rubber, synthetic resin or the like.

Further, as shown in FIG. 8A, a protector 20 made of a thin plastic plate that is harder than the material of the pants body 1 may be attached to the surface of the pocket 201. In this case, it is possible to prevent the cushion material 6 of the knee pad 2 from being damaged by stones or trees on the ground. Further, as shown in FIG. 8B, a large number of non-slip projections 21 may be provided on the surface of the pocket 201. When working with the knees on the ground, there is a risk of slipping when working on a slope, so a plurality of convex portions 21 are formed of rubber or resin and provided on the surface of the cover material 4. As a result, cushioning properties can be obtained and slippage can be prevented. It is also useful when the ground is wet. The protrusion 21 may be provided on the surface of the protector 20, as shown in FIG.

  To use the work pants 200, the knee rest 2 is inserted into the pocket 201 and the lid 202 is closed. The specific work situation is the same as that shown in FIG. According to the work pants 200, the knees are protected by the cushioning property and the work operation can be assisted. Since the work pants 200 has the heat insulating property, it is useful for the work in winter.

(Embodiment 3)
The knee rest 2 shown in the first and second embodiments can be replaced with a knee rest having a different structure. Examples of such knee pads include the following.
(1) Air-filled cushion material (2) Gel-filled cushion material (3) Cushion material with built-in spring

  FIG. 9 is a configuration diagram showing a knee pad made of an air-filled cushion material. The knee pad 330 has a rectangular main body 301 and a hollow interior. The main body 301 is made of rubber, and air is sealed inside to keep airtightness. The body 301 is provided with a hose 302 that allows air to enter inside. The hose 302 communicates with an external air pump 303. Further, the hose 302 is provided with a pressure reducing valve 304. The air inside the knee pad 2 is discharged to the outside by the valve 304, and the atmospheric pressure inside is adjusted.

  As in the knee rest 340 shown in FIG. 10, the hose 302, the pump 303 and the valve 304 may be omitted and the body 301 may be provided with the air plug 305. With such a configuration, the structure is simple.

  Further, a structure in which a plurality of air cushions 306 that do not have the air plugs 305 are connected may be used, as in a knee pad 350 shown in FIG. This air cushion is composed of a plurality of compartments made of a thick base material 307 made of rubber, urethane, and sponge. Air is enclosed in the air cushion and does not leak outside. In this way, the air cushion lasts a long time and the knee pad 350 can be formed into a substantially plate shape, which is easy to handle.

  The knee pads 330, 340, 350 can be adopted in any of the form of attaching and detaching with the surface tape 5 shown in the first embodiment and the form of putting in the pocket 201 shown in the second embodiment. In the case of these knee pads 330, 340, 350, it is preferable that the knee pads 330, 340, 350 be held in the pocket 201. In the case of the knee rest 330, the pump 303 and the valve 304 are provided in the vicinity of the pocket of the pants body 1 into which the hand is put. The hose 302 is passed through the inside of the pants as shown in FIG. 12 (a) (shown by a dotted line in the figure), or as shown in FIG. 12 (b), the tubular portion 308 is formed on the pants body 1 and the inside thereof is It is preferably passed through. As a result, it does not get caught on the plant or the like during the work.

  Since the knee pads 330, 340, 350 have air enclosed therein, the knee pads 330, 340, 350 have a high cushioning property, and the load on the knees is very small. Also, since it has high heat insulation, it can work comfortably even when the ground is cold.

  FIG. 13 is a configuration diagram showing a knee pad made of a gel-filled cushion material. The gel 310 used for the knee pad 360 is a hydrogel. The rubber base material 312 has a plurality of compartments, and the gel 310 is enclosed in each compartment. By partitioning into multiple parts, even if one is damaged, the cushioning property is maintained in the other part. The number of sections is arbitrary. Further, in the case of the gel 310, if it is put in the pocket 201 in a cooled state and used, it becomes suitable for work in the summer.

  The knee pad 360 made of a gel-filled cushion is preferably configured to be held in the pocket 201 according to the second embodiment. When the knee pad 360 is used, the pocket 201 has sharp stones or trees on the ground, and therefore it is preferable to use a material that is not easily broken on the surface. For example, a thick rubber plate or a flexible plastic plate protector is preferably attached to the surface (see FIG. 8).

  In addition to the gel 310, a liquid having a high viscosity may be sealed in the base material 311 or ordinary water may be put therein. When the liquid is enclosed, since the liquid flows inside, the knee pad 360 deforms and fits in the shape of the knee. Therefore, the pressure on the knee becomes uniform.

FIG. 14 is a configuration diagram showing a knee pad formed of a cushion material with a built-in spring. FIG. 15 is a sectional view of the knee pad shown in FIG. The knee rest 370 has a configuration in which a plurality of springs 313 are arranged between a pair of plate members 312 made of resin. A urethane resin, which is a cushion material 314, is provided on the outer surface of one side of the plate material 312. A coil spring is used as the spring 313. It may be a leaf spring. Since the knee pad 370 is deformed to fit the shape of the knee by using the plurality of springs 313, the burden on the knee is small.

  The knee rest 370, which is a cushion with a built-in spring, is preferably configured to be held in the pocket 201. The elastic force of the spring can be used to give momentum when standing up, which makes it easier to crouch while standing. Especially effective when the ground is hard.

  Like the knee rest 380 shown in FIG. 16, a leaf spring 315 having a U-shaped cross section may be used as the cushion material. In this case, a cushion material 316 made of urethane resin is provided on the knee side of the leaf spring 315. According to such a configuration, a high heat insulating property with respect to the ground is obtained, and a strong reaction force is obtained at the time of standing up, so that the operation of standing and crouching is facilitated.

  Further, although the shape of the knee rest 2 shown in the first to third embodiments is rectangular, a desired shape such as a circle, an ellipse, a triangle, a polygon, or a star can be adopted in a plan view (not shown). ).
