Description

  BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a fold-up prevention device for clothes, and more particularly to a fold-up prevention device for clothes that is sandwiched inside a folded portion of clothing such as a kimono or a belt and prevents the generation of wrinkles when the clothing is folded.

Japanese clothes (kimono, obi, haori, etc.) are folded into a rectangular shape, wrapped in paperback paper, and stored in a bag or special storage box.
Japanese clothes tend to be stored for a long period of time because they are rarely worn. In addition, when storing, a plurality of kimonos are often stored in a stacked state. Therefore, folding folds are likely to occur at the folded-back portion of the kimono during storage.

  In order to solve this problem, conventionally, for example, a protective rod for Japanese clothes of Patent Document 1 has been developed. This consists of a cylindrical core material having moderate elasticity, a shaping material wound around the core material, and a covering material wound around the shaping material and locked at both ends thereof. It is configured. Moreover, in the specification of patent document 1, it is described that a fragrance | flavor may be put in the one end part of the length direction of a coating | covering material. It is disclosed that a deodorant and an insect repellent may be used instead of the fragrance depending on the situation.

At the time of use of Patent Document 1, a kimono protective rod is inserted inside the folded portion of the kimono. This prevents creases that occur at the folded portion of the kimono. If you put the fragrance in the dressing, the scent will move to the clothes and you can enjoy the scent.
Japanese Utility Model Publication No. 6-79372

However, in patent document 1, the core material was cylindrical. As a result, although the lower cloth and the upper cloth do not contact and overlap immediately from the folded-back portion of the kimono, they are bent greatly immediately after they are removed from the support of the protective rod for kimono. As a result, wrinkles were formed in the detached part.
Moreover, since the core material is cylindrical in this way, when the kimono with the kimono protective rod inserted is put into a bag or the like, the kimono protective rod is displaced in the length direction when the kimono is tilted. , It was easy to fall off the folded part.
Moreover, the fragrance | flavor and the deodorant and insect repellent used according to the condition were only stored in the one end part of the length direction of a coating | covering material. Therefore, when these fillers that can improve the clothes storage environment are put together in a protective rod for Japanese clothes, the arrangement of effective fillers that can fully exhibit their respective effects is described in Patent Document 1. It was not examined.

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION Accordingly, an object of the present invention is to provide a fold-up preventing tool for garments that can prevent the occurrence of fold-up folds in the fold-up area of the garment and is difficult to fall off from the fold-up section of the garment.
Another object of the present invention is to provide a garment fold prevention tool capable of effectively exhibiting the effective functions of garments individually possessed by bamboo charcoal, limestone and diatomaceous earth.

According to the first aspect of the present invention, there is provided a folding fold prevention device for clothing to be inserted into a folded portion of clothing such as a kimono and a band, and a sheet portion at a portion corresponding to the tapered end of the tear drop. A teardrop-shaped pad inserted into the outer tube, and a teardrop- shaped outer cover made of Japanese paper covering the outer tube, the entire outer tube excluding the sheet portion The pad has a non-woven pad outer bag, and the pad outer bag has a particle diameter of 2 to 3 mm from the outer periphery to the center of the pad outer bag. Bamboo charcoal, limestone, and diatomaceous earth or barley stone are sequentially filled in a three-layer structure, and each layer is a foldable fold prevention tool for clothing partitioned by a non-woven bag or a non-woven tube .

  According to the first aspect of the present invention, during use, the garment folding bag preventing device is placed on the folded portion of the garment, and the garment is folded back. As a result, the lower fabric portion and the upper fabric portion do not come into contact with each other immediately after the folded portion of the clothing. Moreover, since the outer tube and the pad, and thus the garment folding prevention device itself, has a teardrop shape in the cross section perpendicular to the length direction, the garment has a portion corresponding to the inclined side surface of the drip shape. Along the way, it bends continuously (permanently) gradually. As a result, the risk of wrinkles occurring in the folded portion and its entire area is reduced.

  In addition, when inserting the fold-up preventing tool of the garment into the folded portion of the garment, the sheet portion is inserted with the sheet portion facing away from the folded portion. For this reason, when the garment is folded back, the thin sheet portion is sandwiched between the upper cloth portion and the lower cloth portion. Thereby, when putting folded clothes in a bag etc., even if clothes are inclined, the folding hook prevention tool of clothes is hard to shift in the length direction. As a result, it is possible to prevent the garment fold prevention tool from falling off from the folded portion of the garment.

Bamboo charcoal, limestone, and diatomaceous earth or barley stone in the pad individually had through the air holes of the outer tube and the gap between the single fibers constituting the nonwoven fabric of the pad outer bag, and the nonwoven fabric bag or nonwoven fabric cylinder partitioning the pad outer bag, respectively. Effective functions for clothing can be effectively exhibited.
Bamboo charcoal (a constituent of the third layer on the outermost periphery) is produced by steaming bamboo and its main component is activated carbon (carbon), which has deodorizing, insect-proofing and dehumidifying effects. Moreover, negative ions are also generated. Limestone (the second layer component) is mainly composed of calcium carbonate and has deodorizing, dehumidifying, and air cleaning actions. Diatomaceous earth (constituent body of the first first layer) is a porous silicon dioxide hydrate having a dehumidifying, deodorizing, and insect-proofing effect. Barley-stone is a porous material whose main component is feldspar (calcium), and has the same dehumidifying, deodorizing and insect-proofing effects as diatomaceous earth.

By arranging bamboo charcoal in the third layer on the outermost periphery, the effects of bamboo charcoal (deodorization, dehumidification and insect repellent effects) mainly on the clothing of the entire filler contained in the pad. Of these, the effectiveness of deodorization and dehumidification is particularly high during the period when bamboo charcoal is effective as activated carbon. That is, the activated carbon has a large number of fine pores, and bamboo charcoal exhibits a deodorizing function and a dehumidifying function by adsorbing moisture and odor components in the air to the pore wall having a large surface area as a whole.
Based on this, limestone (second layer) is arranged just inside bamboo charcoal. Limestone is mainly composed of calcium carbonate. Therefore, when the water | moisture content of bamboo charcoal is adsorb | sucked (contacted) to calcium carbonate, calcium carbonate raise | generates a hydration reaction and slaked lime (calcium hydroxide) arises. Thereby, the activated carbon of bamboo charcoal recovers its function.

Moreover, diatomaceous earth is arranged immediately inside the limestone. Diatomaceous earth or oat stone is porous and has water absorption. Therefore, diatomaceous earth or barleystone adsorbs moisture that limestone has not been completely treated by hydration and odor components adsorbed on bamboo charcoal. Moreover, diatomaceous earth or barley rice stone also has an insect repellent function. From the above, bamboo charcoal, which exerts the main effects of the garment fold prevention tool on clothing, can maintain its deodorizing function, dehumidifying function, and insect repellent function over a long period of time.
It is also conceivable that diatomaceous earth or barley stone is the second layer and limestone is the third layer. However, in this case, when the second layer is diatomaceous earth, the diatomaceous earth is soily and may be powdered. At that time, the powdered diatomaceous earth adheres to the surface of the limestone, and the limestone efficacy (dehumidifying effect, etc.) There is a risk of making it difficult to demonstrate.

As clothing, for example, a kimono (Japanese clothes), a band, a haori, a clothes, a scarf and the like can be employed. In particular, the effects of the present invention are more prominent in cloth garments, particularly those with thin fabrics.
The folded portion of clothing is a portion that is folded when clothing is folded, for example.
The outer tube may be a rigid body or a soft body that can be bent. However, a soft tube is preferable.
The material of the exterior tube is arbitrary. For example, synthetic resins such as polypropylene and polyethylene can be used. In addition, paper, fabric (woven fabric, non-woven fabric, knitted fabric) or the like may be used. Of these, polypropylene and polyethylene, which are synthetic resins containing no sulfur, are preferred because they have higher chemical resistance and are easy to produce. Since polypropylene and the like do not contain sulfur, the sulfur does not ooze out of the outer tube and discolor the clothing.

Here, the teardrop tube shape (or teardropbar shape) means that the cross section perpendicular to the length direction of the outer tube has a substantially semicircular shape at one end and the other end toward the outside in the radial direction. A cylindrical shape (or bar shape) that gradually tapers. One end of the sheet portion is connected to the other end of the teardrop tube that is tapered.
The material of the seat part is arbitrary. It may be formed integrally with the same material as the exterior tube, or may be formed as a separate body with another material. The sheet material may be a rigid body or a soft body. The sheet portion may be provided in the entire region in the length direction of the outer tube, or may be provided only in a part thereof.

The sheet width (the width of the sheet portion in a state where the length direction of the sheet portion and the length direction of the exterior tube are aligned) is not limited. For example, it is 10-30 mm, preferably around 20 mm.
The material of the pad is arbitrary. For example, various soft foam synthetic resins (such as urethane foam) and various rubbers (synthetic rubber, natural rubber) can be employed. Moreover, what enclosed the granular material, powder, or the liquid in the bag (pad outer bag) whose cross-sectional shape of a length direction is a teardrop may be used. In this case, the bag includes various fragrances, various antifungal agents, various insect repellents, etc., one for each bag, or multiple types (including all types) for one bag. May be put in.
As long as the pad can be inserted into the outer tube, it is preferable that the pad has substantially the same cross-sectional area as the cross-sectional area perpendicular to the length direction of the outer tube.

As a material for the pad outer bag, for example, polypropylene, polyethylene or the like can be employed. Of these, polypropylene and polyethylene are synthetic resins that do not contain sulfur and have high chemical resistance. Therefore, it is easy to manufacture a pad outer bag with a vent hole, and the possibility that sulfur content oozes out of the pad outer bag and discolors clothing is eliminated.
Each input amount of bamboo charcoal, limestone, diatomaceous earth, or barleystone into the pad outer bag is arbitrary. For example, an equal amount may be used.
Moreover, each particle size of bamboo charcoal, limestone, diatomaceous earth, or barleystone is 2 to 3 mm. If it is less than 2 mm, limestone tends to harden when it undergoes a hydration reaction. Moreover, when it exceeds 3 mm, there exists a possibility that an unevenness | corrugation may generate | occur | produce on the outer peripheral surface of a pad.

The outer tube may be heat-sealed by superimposing both ends of one polypropylene sheet, and the heat-sealed portion may be used as a sheet portion. Thereby, manufacture of an exterior tube becomes easy.

According to the first aspect of the present invention, a teardrop tube-shaped outer tube having a sheet portion at a portion corresponding to the tapered end of the teardrop, and a teardrop-bar-shaped pad inserted into the outer tube Therefore, it is possible to prevent the occurrence of folding folds in the folded part of the clothing. In addition, it is possible to obtain high positional stability at the folded-back portion of the garment during use.
The outer tube has a vent hole, the pad has a non-woven pad outer bag, and the pad outer bag has bamboo charcoal, limestone, and diatomaceous earth from the outer periphery to the center of the pad outer bag. Alternatively, since the barley-stone is sequentially stored in a three-layer structure, each effect of bamboo charcoal, limestone, diatomaceous earth, or barley-stone can be effectively exhibited.

  Examples of the present invention will be specifically described below. Here, a fold-up preventing tool for clothing for kimono (Japanese clothes) is taken as an example.

Hereinafter, with reference to the drawings, a fold-up preventing tool for clothes according to Embodiment 1 of the present invention will be described.
In FIGS. 1 and 2, reference numeral 10 denotes a garment fold prevention device 10 according to Embodiment 1 of the present invention. The garment fold prevention device 10 is inserted into a folded portion 11 a of a kimono (clothing) 11, and This prevents the folding folds from occurring in the folded portion 11a.
The clothes folding prevention device 10 has a teardrop tube shape and an outer tube 13 having a sheet portion 12 at a portion corresponding to the tapered end of the teardrop, and a teardrop rod shape inserted into the outer tube 13. And a pad 14.

The outer tube 13 is formed by superposing two widthwise end portions 15a of a single polypropylene rectangular sheet (length: 310 mm, width: 140 mm, thickness: 0.2 to 0.3 mm) by a width of 20 mm. Heat-sealed (FIGS. 3 and 4). This heat-sealed portion becomes the sheet portion 12. A large number of vent holes 15b having a diameter of 5 mm are formed in a matrix at a pitch of 10 to 20 mm over the entire area of the outer tube 13 excluding the sheet portion 12.
The pad 14 has the pad outer bag 16 which consists of a nonwoven fabric of a polypropylene single fiber (FIG. 1 and FIG. 4). The pad outer bag 16 has a three-layer structure of bamboo charcoal 17, limestone 18, and diatomaceous earth 19 in order from the outer peripheral portion of the pad outer bag 16 to the center portion. It is packed (stored) tightly enough not to come and go. In addition, as shown by the dashed-two dotted line of FIG. 1, you may partition each layer with two large and small nonwoven fabric bags or a nonwoven fabric cylinder, and you may adhere | attach and harden the particle | grains of each layer with an adhesive agent. Moreover, it may replace with diatomaceous earth and may employ barley-stone, and may employ both diatomaceous earth 19 and barley-stone.

The average particle sizes of bamboo charcoal 17, limestone 18 and diatomaceous earth 19 are each about 2.5 mm. The input amounts of bamboo charcoal 17, limestone 18 and diatomaceous earth 19 to the pad outer bag 16 are equal. Both openings of the pad outer bag 16 containing these are sealed by heat sealing. The obtained pad 14 is inserted into the outer tube 13, and then both openings of the outer tube 13 are sealed (heat-sealed) with a cap 20 made of polypropylene (FIG. 5). If at least one end of the outer tube 13 is detachable without heat-sealing, the pad 14 can be replaced when the effectiveness of the bamboo charcoal 17, limestone 18, diatomaceous earth 19, and the like is reduced. Moreover, three small pad outer bags (for example, a bag having a diameter of 10 mm and a length of 27 to 30 mm) are produced, and only the bamboo charcoal 17 is used for the first pad outer bag, and only the limestone 18 is used for the second pad outer bag. Only the diatomaceous earth 19 may be enclosed in the third pad outer bag. As a result, all of the three types of fillers can exert their individual effects almost evenly.
Thereafter, the outer tube 13 containing the pad 14 is inserted into an outer cover 21 made of Japanese paper having a teardrop tube shape. Thereby, the fold-up prevention tool 10 of clothing is manufactured (FIG. 1 and FIG. 2).

Next, a method of using the garment folding device 10 according to the first embodiment of the present invention will be described.
As shown in FIG. 2, during use, the garment folding bag preventing tool 10 is folded over the folded portion 11 a of the kimono 11, and the kimono 11 is folded back with its length direction parallel to the folding line. Thereby, the lower cloth portion and the upper cloth portion do not come into contact with each other immediately after the folded portion 11a of the kimono 11 and overlap. In addition, the outer tube 13 and the pad 14, and thus the foldable garment prevention device 10 itself has a teardrop shape in cross section perpendicular to the length direction. Therefore, the kimono 11 is gradually bent gradually along the portion corresponding to the inclined side surface of the droplet shape. As a result, wrinkles are unlikely to occur in the folded portion 11a and its entire area.

  Further, when inserting the above-described garment fold prevention tool 10 into the folded portion 11a of the kimono 11, the sheet portion 12 is inserted in a state facing the side opposite to the folded portion 11a. Therefore, when the kimono 11 is folded back, the thin sheet portion 12 is sandwiched between the upper and lower cloth portions of the kimono 11 folded back. Thereby, when storing the folded kimono 11 in a bag etc., even if the kimono 11 tilts, the clothing folding bag preventing tool 10 is hard to be displaced in the length direction. As a result, it is possible to prevent the clothes fold preventing device 10 from falling off from the folded portion 11a of the kimono 11.

Furthermore, the effective functions for the kimono 11 individually possessed by the bamboo charcoal 17, the limestone 18 and the diatomaceous earth 19 in the pad 14 are effective through the air holes 15b of the outer tube 13 and the gaps between the single fibers constituting the nonwoven fabric of the pad outer bag 16, respectively. Can be demonstrated.
Bamboo charcoal 17 is bamboo steamed in a charcoal kiln, the main component is activated carbon, which has deodorizing, insect-proofing and dehumidifying effects. Moreover, negative ions are also generated. Limestone 18 is mainly composed of calcium carbonate and has deodorizing, dehumidifying and air cleaning actions. Diatomaceous earth 19 is a porous silicon dioxide hydrate whose main component is a dehumidifying, deodorizing and insect-proofing effect.

By arranging the bamboo charcoal 17 in the third layer on the outermost periphery, the efficacy of the bamboo charcoal 17 described above is the main effect on the clothing of the entire filler accommodated in the pad 14. Of these, the effectiveness of deodorization and dehumidification is particularly high only during the period when bamboo charcoal 17 is effective as activated carbon. That is, the activated carbon has a large number of micropores, and the bamboo charcoal 17 exhibits a deodorizing function and a dehumidifying function by adsorbing moisture and odor components in the air to the pore wall having a large surface area as a whole.
Based on this, limestone 18 (second layer) is arranged immediately inside the bamboo charcoal 17. The main component of limestone 18 is calcium carbonate. Therefore, when the water | moisture content of the bamboo charcoal 17 contacts calcium carbonate, calcium carbonate raise | generates a hydration reaction and slaked lime (calcium hydroxide) arises. Thereby, the activated carbon of the bamboo charcoal 17 recovers its function.

Moreover, a diatomaceous earth 19 is disposed immediately inside the limestone 18. The diatomaceous earth 19 is porous and has water absorption. Therefore, the diatomaceous earth 19 adsorbs the moisture that the limestone 18 has not been treated by the hydration reaction and the odor component adsorbed by the bamboo charcoal 17. Moreover, the diatomaceous earth 19 also has an insect repellent function. From the above, the bamboo charcoal 17 that exhibits the main effects of the garment fold prevention tool 10 on the garment maintains its deodorizing function, dehumidifying function, and insect repellent function over a long period of time.
In addition, since the exterior tube 13 is manufactured by superimposing both ends of one polypropylene sheet and heat-sealing the overlapped portion as the sheet portion 12, the exterior tube 13 can be easily manufactured. Become.
Furthermore, since the outer tube 13 containing the pad 14 is covered with the outer cover 21 made of Japanese paper here, the outer cover 21 is prevented from slipping, and the foldable fold preventing device 10 of the clothing is positioned at the folded portion 11a of the kimono 11 when used. It becomes difficult to shift.
