Description

The present invention relates to clothing with a length adjustment function.

When buying training wear or ski wear, especially for children, there is a tendency to choose a relatively large size in anticipation of physical growth. However, when the clothes are first purchased, they do not fit the child's body (they end up being too loose), which not only reduces the functionality of the clothes but also makes them very uncomfortable to wear.

To deal with such situations, clothing that has a structure that allows shortening of the sleeve length, armpit length, and hem circumference has been on the market, but these adjustment structures are usually independent for each part, and each part has its own adjustment area, so in order to adjust all the lengths, it is necessary to operate each part separately.

As a result, a garment has been proposed that has adjustable length strings that run through the sides and waist, allowing the length of both to be shortened by manipulating the size adjustment strings, allowing the garment to fit the body even when wearing a larger size garment (hereinafter referred to as the "conventional example").

Utility Model Registration No. 3021540

However, in the above conventional example, although the armpit length of the body and the circumference of the hem can be adjusted at the same time, there is no adjustment structure for the sleeve length, and it is inconvenient that the sleeve length cannot be shortened, which is the most appropriate length adjustment required depending on the situation of use, and it is an extremely unsatisfactory product in terms of providing clothing that fits the body.

The objective of the present invention is to provide a garment with adjustable length, which has strings that allow the length of the body and sleeves to be adjusted.

The gist of the present invention will be explained with reference to the attached drawings.

This garment is a length-adjustable garment that can adjust the length of the sleeve 2 and the side length of the body 3 in the garment 1. The garment has a tubular string-passing section 5 that runs along the length of the body side 4 on the inside of the body side 4, and a tubular string-passing section 6 that runs along the length of the sleeve 2 on the inside of the sleeve 2. An adjustment string 7 is inserted through these string-passing sections 5, 6. One end of the adjustment string 7 inserted through the string-passing section 5 is fastened to a fastening section 9 provided at the lower end of the body side 4, and the other end of the adjustment string 7 inserted through the string-passing section 6 is fastened to a fastening section 10 provided at the tip of the sleeve 2. The garment has a string fastener 8 through which the adjustment string 7 is inserted. The length of the sleeve 2 or the side length of the body 3, as well as the length of the sleeve 2 and the side length of the body 3 can be shortened by pulling the adjustment string 7 and fastening it with the string fastener 8.

The invention also relates to a garment with length adjustment function, as described in claim 1, characterized in that the adjustment string 7 inserted into the tubular string-passing portion 5 along the length of the body side portion 4 and the tubular string-passing portion 6 along the length of the sleeve portion 2 is composed of a single string.

The invention also relates to a garment with length adjustment function, as described in either claim 1 or 2, characterized in that the sleeve length 2 and the armpit length of the body 3 can be shortened simultaneously.

In addition, the garment has a length adjustment function that allows the length of the sleeve 2, the side length of the body 3, and the outer circumference of the hem 12 of the garment 1 to be adjusted. A tubular string-passing portion 5 is provided on the inside of the body side 4 along the length of the body side 4, a tubular string-passing portion 6 is provided on the inside of the sleeve 2 along the length of the sleeve 2, and a tubular string-passing portion 11 is provided along the length of the hem 12. An adjustment string 7 is inserted into these string-passing portions 5, 6, and 11, and one end of the adjustment string 7 inserted into the string-passing portion 11 is set in the hem 12. The length of the sleeve 2 or the side length of the body 3 and the periphery of the hem 12, as well as the length of the sleeve 2, the side length of the body 3 and the periphery of the hem 12, are shortened by pulling the adjustment string 7 and fixing it with the string fastening part 8.

The garment with length adjustment function described in claim 4 is characterized in that the adjustment string 7 inserted into the tubular string-passing portion 5 along the length of the body side portion 4, the tubular string-passing portion 6 along the length of the sleeve portion 2, and the tubular string-passing portion 11 along the length of the hem portion 12 are composed of a single string.

The preferred embodiment of the present invention will be briefly explained below, showing the operation of the invention based on the drawings.

The present invention provides a tubular string-passing section 6 along the length on the inside of the sleeve section 2, and a tubular string-passing section 5 along the length on the inside of the body side section 4, and an adjustment string 7 for adjusting the length is inserted into these string-passing sections 5, 6. By pulling this adjustment string 7, the length of the sleeve section 2 and the length of the body side section 4 can be shortened, making it possible to adjust the size of the garment to suit the wearer's body type.

The string fastener 8 for operating the adjustment string 7 is provided, for example, between the upper end of the string-through portion 5 and the base end (side) of the string-through portion 6 (near the side on the inside of the garment). The adjustment string 7 can be operated to shorten the length of the sleeve portion 2 and the length of the body side portion 4 separately, and can also be operated to shorten one end inserted into the string-through portion 5 and the other end inserted into the string-through portion 6 simultaneously, so that the length of the sleeve portion 2 and the length of the body side portion 4 can be adjusted simultaneously.

Specific examples of the present invention will be described with reference to Figures 1 to 5.

This embodiment is a garment with a length adjustment function that can adjust the length of the sleeve 2 and the side length of the body 3 in the garment 1. A tubular string-passing part 5 is provided on the inside of the body side 4 along the length of the body side 4, and a tubular string-passing part 6 is provided on the inside of the sleeve 2 along the length of the sleeve 2. An adjustment string 7 is inserted into these string-passing parts 5, 6. One end of the adjustment string 7 inserted into the string-passing part 5 is fastened to a fastening part 9 provided on the lower end side of the body side 4, and the other end of the adjustment string 7 inserted into the string-passing part 6 is fastened to a fastening part 10 provided on the tip side of the sleeve 2. The garment has a string fastener 8 through which the adjustment string 7 is inserted. The length of the sleeve 2 or the side length of the body 3, as well as the length of the sleeve 2 and the side length of the body 3 can be shortened by pulling the adjustment string 7 and fixing it with the string fastener 8.

The components of this embodiment are explained in detail below.

In this embodiment, the string-passing portion 5 has a thin, tubular shape and is provided inside the armpit of the body 3 (body armpit portion 4) (for convenience, only the left side of the garment is shown in Figures 1 to 5, but the right side has the same structure).

Specifically, both upper and lower ends of the string-passing section 5 are open, and one end of the adjustment string 7 inserted into the string-passing section 5 is fastened to a fastening section 9 provided inside the string-passing section 5 at the lower end of the body side section 4.

In addition, in this embodiment, the side seam where the string-passing portion 5 is provided is made thicker to reinforce the portion where the string-passing portion 5 is provided.

The string-passing section 6 also has a thin, tubular shape like the string-passing section 5, and is provided on the inside of the sleeve section 2 (the side of the body 4) along the length of the sleeve section 2.

Specifically, the string-passing section 6 is open at both ends, the base end (side of the armpit) and the tip of the sleeve, and the other end of the adjustment string 7 inserted into the string-passing section 6 is fastened to a fastening section 10 provided on the inside of the string-passing section 6 at the tip of the sleeve.

In addition, in this embodiment, the side seam where the string-passing portion 6 is provided is made thicker to reinforce the portion where the string-passing portion 6 is provided.

The string-passing portion 5 provided on the body side portion 4 and the adjustment string 7 that is inserted into the string-passing portion 6 provided on the sleeve portion 2 are composed of a single string.

Specifically, the adjustment string 7, one end of which is fastened to the fastening portion 9 of the string-passing portion 5, passes through the inside of the string-passing portion 5, passes from the upper end of the string-passing portion 5 through the storage portion 13 that stores the string fastener 8, passes from the base end (side) of the string-passing portion 6 to the inside, and is fastened to the fastening portion 10 provided on the string-passing portion 6 at the other end.

More specifically, the adjustment string 7 starts from the fastening part 9 and passes through the string-passing part 5, then passes through a hole 14a in the storage part 13 and enters the inside of the storage part 13, where the center part of the string is connected in a loop to the string fastening part 8. Then, after passing through a hole 14b in the storage part 13, the adjustment string 7 enters the string-passing part 6 and finally reaches the fastening part 10.

The cord stopper is a cord stopper. The cord stopper has a cylindrical main body and an operating part that is inserted into the main body. An opening is provided in each of the main body and the operating part, and the operating part is biased by an elastic body such as a spring so that it protrudes from the main body. When the operating part is pushed into the main body against the elastic body, the openings of both overlap, making it easier for the adjustment cord 7 to pass through. On the other hand, when the pushing is stopped, the operating part returns to its original position due to the elastic body, and the opening shifts, restraining the adjustment cord 7.

The storage section 13 is pocket-shaped with one of its four sides open and not sewn, and the string fastener 8 can be operated from this open section. The storage section 13 also determines the position of the string fastener 8.

The effects of this embodiment configured as described above are explained below.

In this embodiment, a single adjustment string 7 is inserted through a string-passing section 5 provided in the length direction of the body side section 4 and a string-passing section 6 provided in the length direction of the sleeve section 2, and both ends of the string are fastened to the fastening section 9 and the fastening section 10. Therefore, by operating the string fastener 8 stored in the storage section 13 (adjusting the length of the loop portion), the fastening section 9 attached to the lower end of the string-passing section 5 is pulled upward, and at the same time, the fastening section 10 attached to the tip of the string-passing section 6 is pulled toward the torso, so that the body side section 4 and the sleeve section 2 can be freely shortened, and the length of the sleeve section 2 and the side length of the body section 3 can be adjusted to suit the wearer's body type.

In addition, by operating the string fasteners 8 of the adjustment strings 7, the armpit length of the body 3 and the length of the sleeves 2 can be shortened simultaneously, making it easy to adjust the size when wearing the garment.

Furthermore, the adjustment string 7 can be operated separately on the side that is inserted into the string-through portion 5 provided on the body side portion 4 and the side that is inserted into the string-through portion 6 provided on the sleeve portion 2, so it can be used to shorten only the side length of the body portion 3 or only the length of the sleeve portion 2.

In addition, because the string fastener 8 is stored in the storage section 13, the sensation of the string fastener touching the armpit is reduced, minimizing any discomfort felt when wearing the garment.

In this way, this embodiment is a revolutionary garment with a highly practical length adjustment function that allows the armpit and sleeve lengths to be freely shortened, making it easy to adjust the size to fit the wearer's body.

Specific examples of the present invention will be described with reference to Figures 1 to 6.

In this embodiment, one end of the adjustment string 7 in the first embodiment is not fastened to the lower end of the side portion 4 of the body, but is inserted into a string-passing portion 11 provided in the hem portion 12 (on the front side).

Specifically, one end of the adjustment string 7 passes through the lower end of the string-passing portion 5 provided at the side portion 4 of the body, is inserted into the string-passing portion 11 from the portion where it reaches the hem portion 12, is inserted through the string-passing portion 11 toward the front (center) of the body 3, and one end of the adjustment string 7 is fastened to the fastening portion 15 provided on the center side of the string-passing portion 11.

The rest of the configuration is the same as in Example 1.

The effects of this embodiment configured as described above are explained below.

In the first embodiment, only the length of the body 3 and sleeves 2 can be adjusted, but in the present embodiment, the hem 12 can be shortened by stretching the adjustment string 7 and inserting it through the string hole 11 provided in the hem 12, making it possible to adjust not only the length of the body 3 and sleeves 2, but also the length of the hem 12, resulting in a revolutionary garment with a highly practical length adjustment function.
