Description

The present invention relates to bathrobes.

Bathrobes are used as clothes worn directly on bare skin after bathing or showering. In order to keep the body cool, it is desirable that the bathrobe can be put on quickly. However, people with physical disabilities, people with shoulder or arm pain, and elderly people find it difficult to put on bathrobes.

In addition, people who are assisted by others for bathing, such as physically handicapped people and elderly people, are also assisted by others in the task of wiping moisture off their wet skin after bathing. As a result, it takes longer than for a healthy person to wipe their own skin, and during that time, the body may become cold. Therefore, for the time being, it is conceivable to have the person wear a bathrobe to prevent the body from getting cold, and then perform the work of wiping off moisture from the skin. In this case as well, it is desirable that the bathrobe can be quickly put on, but it is difficult for the person who is assisted by others to take a bath by themselves, so putting on the bathrobe also takes time.

Therefore, the applicant of the present invention has come up with the idea of manufacturing a bathrobe that can be quickly put on even by people who have difficulty in moving their bodies, such as people with physical disabilities, people who have pain in their shoulders and arms, and elderly people. bottom.

An object of the present invention, as described above, is to provide a bathrobe that can be quickly put on even by a person who has difficulty moving the body.

In order to solve the above problems, the bathrobe according to the present invention is
"A back body, separated left and right front bodies, sleeves are joined to the upper parts of the back body and the left and right front bodies, respectively, and except for the joints with the sleeves, the back body and the left and right front bodies are A bathrobe in which each front body is joined via a side line,
The base width of the sleeve is 45cm±5cm,
The cuff width is 29 cm ± 3 cm.

The "sleeve base width" refers to the length of half the circumference of the opening (armhole) at the base of the sleeve, and the "cuff width" refers to the length of the half circumference of the tip opening of the sleeve.

When wearing ordinary clothes, first the arms are stretched to pass through the sleeves, and then the body is covered with the main body composed of the back body and the front body. However, it is often difficult for people who have difficulty in moving their bodies, such as people with physical disabilities, people who have pain in their shoulders or arms, and elderly people, to keep their arms extended. In addition, even if it is possible to stretch the arm as a physical function, among those who receive help from others for bathing, there are people who are hard of hearing and those who have cognitive decline, It is often difficult to persuade the person to extend his/her arm.

In order to solve this problem, the bathrobe of the present invention adopts a means of setting the base width of the sleeve to 45 cm±5 cm and the width of the cuff to 29 cm±3 cm. Such sleeve root width and cuff width are considerably larger values than sleeve root width and cuff width in general clothing. Therefore, the arm can be passed through the sleeve while the elbow is bent. In other words, it is possible to put on the bathrobe first, and then put the arm through the sleeve. Therefore, the arms can be passed through the sleeves while the body is prevented from being chilled by the worn bathrobe. And since it is possible to pass the arm through the sleeve while bending the elbow, even those who have difficulty moving their body and stretching their arms can quickly put on the bathrobe when putting it on themselves. can. In addition, when the bathrobe is put on by another person, such as when assisting in bathing, the bathrobe can be quickly put on by the other person.

The bathrobe according to the present invention, in addition to the above configuration,
"It has a raised collar joined to the upper ends of the back body and the left and right front bodies,
The collar height at the rear center of the collar is 7 cm±2 cm."

A common bathrobe, even if it has a collar, is a flat collar that is folded along the body surface. On the other hand, the bathrobe of this configuration has a raised collar, and the height of the collar is set to 7 cm±2 cm, which is very high. Therefore, the neck can be protected and kept warm by the collar. By warming your neck, you can warm your entire body. Therefore, by wearing the bathrobe of this configuration, it is possible to more effectively prevent the body from getting cold after bathing or showering.

The bathrobe according to the present invention, in addition to the above configuration,
It can be defined as "at least the entire inner surface is composed of pile fabric".

The pile fabric has high water absorption. Since the entire inner surface of the bathrobe that comes in contact with the skin is made of pile fabric, the bathrobe of this configuration can be put on the skin that is still moist after bathing or showering, allowing the bathrobe to absorb the moisture. . Therefore, the wet body can be dried by first quickly putting on the bathrobe to prevent the body from getting cold, and then wiping the water off the skin.

The bathrobe according to the present invention, in addition to the above configuration,
It can be said that "the pile warp constituting the pile fabric is a processed spun yarn in which the fibers are swollen in the direction opposite to the twisting direction."

"Processed spun yarn in which the fibers are swollen in the direction opposite to the twisting direction" is obtained by binding the spun yarn with a water-soluble yarn, or binding the spun single yarn with a water-soluble glue, as described later in detail. Above, it can be obtained by twisting in the direction opposite to the original twist and removing the water-soluble yarn or water-soluble glue after or before weaving the pile fabric.

Such a processed spun yarn has very high water absorbency because the fibers are swollen and the voids between the fibers are large. Therefore, a bathrobe made of a pile fabric using this processed spun yarn as pile warp yarns can very effectively absorb water adhering to the skin after bathing or showering. For example, after a bath or shower, a bathrobe can be worn directly over still-wet skin and the bathrobe can be used in place of a towel to absorb moisture into the bathrobe. The pile fabric that uses processed spun yarn can retain a large amount of water, so the surface is smooth even after it absorbs water, and even if you wear it as it is, it does not feel wet on your skin.

In addition, since this processed spun yarn has large voids between fibers, it is fluffy and bulky, so that a bathrobe using this for the pile fabric is very soft to the touch.

As described above, according to the present invention, it is possible to provide a bathrobe that can be quickly put on even by people who have difficulty moving their bodies.

1 is a front view of a bathrobe that is one embodiment of the present invention; FIG. (a), (b) It is explanatory drawing of the way of wearing which puts an arm through a sleeve part in the state which bent the elbow. It is another explanatory view of how to put the arm through the sleeve in a state where the elbow is bent. FIG. 2 is a front view for explaining dimensions of the bathrobe of FIG. 1;

A bathrobe 1 according to a specific embodiment of the present invention will be described below with reference to the drawings. The bathrobe 1 is intended to be worn directly on bare skin after bathing or showering.

The bathrobe 1 includes a back body 10, separated left and right front bodies 21 and 22, and sleeves 30 joined to upper parts of the back body 10 and the left and right front bodies 21 and 22, respectively. The back body 10 and the left and right front bodies 21 and 22 are joined together via side lines 19, respectively, except for the joints between the two. The bathrobe 1 also has a raised collar part 40 that is joined to the upper ends of the back body 10 and the left and right front bodies 21 and 22, respectively.

The dimensions of the bathrobe 1 are: length L1 is 95 cm ± 10 cm, width L2 is 54 cm ± 5 cm, shoulder width L3 is 27 cm ± 3 cm, sleeve length L4 is 58 cm ± 3 cm, sleeve length L5 is 32 cm ± 3 cm, sleeve bottom L6 is 35 cm ± 3 cm, The base width L7 of the sleeve portion is set at 45 cm±5 cm, the cuff width L8 is set at 29 cm±2 cm, and the collar height L9 at the center of the rear portion of the collar portion 40 is set at 7 cm±2 cm. The cuff width L7 is the length of the half circumference of the opening 39 at the base of the sleeve 30 , and the cuff width is the length of the half circumference of the tip opening 31 of the sleeve 30 .

In addition, the left and right front bodies 21 and 22 are sized so that their free ends can be overlapped, and one of the front bodies 21 and 22 has a button 51 and the other has a buttonhole (not shown in the drawing). formed. Furthermore, pockets 52 are formed in the left and right front bodies 21 and 22, respectively.

The fabric constituting the bathrobe 1 is a highly flexible fabric, and at least the inner surface is pile fabric. For example, both the inner and outer surfaces can be pile. Alternatively, the inner surface can be pile fabric and the outer surface can be gauze fabric. The pile fabric is obtained by weaving pile warp threads into base threads (ground warps, ground wefts).

As the pile warp, a processed spun yarn in which the fibers are swollen in the direction opposite to the twist direction is used. Such a processed spun yarn is obtained by weaving and knitting a pile fabric using a composite twisted yarn obtained by twisting a spun yarn and a water-soluble yarn in the opposite direction to the twist of the spun yarn, and then dissolving the water-soluble yarn. or a yarn obtained by dissolving a water-soluble yarn before weaving the pile fabric. In such a processed spun yarn, when the fibers are released from restraint by the water-soluble yarn and try to return to the original twist direction, the fibers that have been bundled up until then are separated, and the fibers are twisted in the direction opposite to the twist direction. It is swollen and has many voids between the fibers of the spun yarn. As the water-soluble thread, a thread made of water-soluble polyvinyl alcohol fiber, water-soluble ethylene-vinyl alcohol copolymer fiber, or water-soluble polyamide fiber can be used. The water-soluble yarn may be filament yarn or spun yarn.

In addition to the manufacturing method using water-soluble yarn as described above, processed spun yarn is produced by applying a water-soluble glue (adhesive) to the spun single yarn, drying it, and then twisting it in the opposite direction to the original twist direction. It may be obtained by a manufacturing method in which size is removed by dissolving before or after the pile fabric is woven or knitted using the processed spun single yarn. If you try to twist a simple spun single yarn in the opposite direction to the original twist, the fibers that make up the spun single yarn will be untwisted in the process and will come off and will pass through the stage where the number of twists is zero. Since it is not possible to twist in the opposite direction, the glue prevents the fibers that make up the spun single yarn from becoming unraveled. It is possible to twist in the opposite direction. Therefore, by dissolving and removing the water-soluble size, it is possible to obtain a processed spun yarn having many voids between fibers, as in the above method using a water-soluble yarn.

The bathrobe 1 has the above-described dimension settings, and has a sleeve base width L7 of 45 cm±5 cm, which is considerably larger than the sleeve base width of general clothing. In the case of general adults including men and women, the length N1 from the tip of the shoulder to the elbow is 28 cm to 35 cm. Therefore, as shown in FIGS. 2 and 3 , the arm with the elbow bent can be passed through the opening 39 at the base of the sleeve portion 30 . Also, the cuff width L8 is 29 cm±3 cm, which is a considerably large value compared to the cuff width of general clothes. Therefore, the wrist side of the arm with the elbow bent can be easily pulled out from the tip opening 31 of the sleeve portion 30 . Therefore, in the conventional bathrobe, the arm is put through the sleeves and then the body is covered with the main body consisting of the back body and the front body. Then, after that, the arm is passed through the sleeve portion 30". In addition, FIG. 2 illustrates a case where the arm with the elbow bent so that the wrist is above the elbow is passed through the sleeve 30, and FIG. A case where the arm is passed through the sleeve portion 30 is illustrated.

Therefore, the arm can be passed through the sleeve portion 30 while the body is prevented from being chilled by the worn bathrobe 1. - 特許庁In addition, since the arm can be passed through the sleeve portion 30 with the elbow bent, it is suitable for people who have difficulty moving their bodies or stretching their arms, such as people with physical disabilities, people who have pain in their shoulders or arms, and elderly people. Even if there is, when putting on the bathrobe 1 by oneself, the bathrobe 1 can be quickly put on. In addition, when the bathrobe 1 is put on by another person, such as when assisting in bathing, the bathrobe 1 can be put on quickly.

In addition, since the bathrobe 1 has a button 51 for fastening the left and right front bodies 21 and 22 together, if the button 51 is fastened after wearing the bathrobe 1, the body is prevented from getting cold. the effect will be higher.

Furthermore, the bathrobe 1 has a raised collar portion 40, and the height of the collar is set to 7 cm±2 cm, which is very high. Therefore, the neck can be warmed by the collar 40, and the whole body can be prevented from getting cold more effectively.

In addition, at least the entire inner surface of the fabric constituting the bathrobe 1 is a highly absorbent pile fabric. Therefore, after bathing or showering, the bathrobe 1 is first put on the skin that is still moist to prevent the body from getting cold, and then the bathrobe 1 absorbs the moisture. , can wipe moisture from the skin.

As the pile warp yarns of the pile fabric, processed spun yarn is used in which the fibers are swollen in the direction opposite to the twist direction, so the gaps between the fibers in the pile fabric are very large, and the water absorption is reduced. very high. Therefore, the bathrobe 1 can be put directly on wet skin after bathing or showering, and the bathrobe 1 can be used instead of a towel to absorb water. The pile fabric that uses processed spun yarn can retain a large amount of water, so the surface is smooth even after it absorbs water, and even if you wear it as it is, it does not feel wet on your skin. This lack of wet feeling is to the extent that, after putting on the bathrobe 1 to absorb moisture from the skin, you can change into night clothes such as pajamas, and put on the bathrobe 1 again with cold weather clothes on top of it. be.

In addition, the pile fabric using processed spun yarn is fluffy and bulky as a whole, so it is extremely soft to the touch. In addition, since the gaps between the fibers are large, there is an advantage that the fabric dries in a short time after absorbing water or washing.

Although the preferred embodiments of the present invention have been described above, the present invention is not limited to these embodiments, and as shown below, various improvements and Design changes are possible.

For example, in the above example, the bathrobe 1 is set so that the lower end reaches from the waist to the knee, but the length is not limited to this, and the lower end can be set so that the lower end reaches near the ankle.

In addition, the bathrobe 1 can be quickly put on even by people who have difficulty in moving their bodies, such as people with physical disabilities, people who have pain in their shoulders or arms, and elderly people. It is very easy to wear, and naturally a healthy person can wear it quickly.

Furthermore, the bathrobe 1 is supposed to be worn after bathing or showering, and although it is a "bath" robe from its name, it can of course be worn after swimming or bathing.
