Description

[Detailed description of the invention]

(Industrial Application Field) The present invention is applicable to foundations such as various brassieres, girdles, bodysuits, waist knitpers, lingerie such as camisoles with bras, shirts with bras, brass slips, and other materials mainly used for the human body. Clothes made by inserting stranded wires or bones made of amorphous metal fibers or containing amorphous amorphous metal fibers into necessary parts of clothes that are worn in close contact with the surface, and developed by inserting twisted wires or bones made of amorphous metal fibers or amorphous amorphous metal fibers into the necessary parts of clothes, etc., which are worn in close contact with the surface, and the clothes made of amorphous metal fibers or amorphous amorphous metal fibers used for the main body of the clothing. Concerning stranded wires or bones containing metal fibers. (Prior art) Conventionally, in order to expect shape retention and formability when a foundation such as a bra or a lingerie such as a slip is attached, the cross section is shaped into a perfect circle, ellipse, or rectangle in the necessary area. The shape is maintained by inserting wires or bones made of hard metal wires or soft synthetic resin wires. Wires or bones made of metal wires are mainly used by inserting them into areas where hard shape-retaining force or shaping force is expected, while wires or bones made of synthetic resin wires are used with a relatively soft feeling of wearing and retention. It is inserted and fixed in the necessary area to provide a correction function and a modeling function in order to have a certain degree of shaping power and modeling power. Among such wires or bones, the former is mainly arranged at the curved lower edge of a cup such as a brassiere, and is pre-curved so as to follow the curved lower edge. The wire or bone, which expands to about 1 to 2 cm on the armpit and front center side when wearing a brassiere, etc., is made of a single piece of spring steel, so a resistance force appears in the tensile direction and the original A force is generated that tries to forcefully return to the shape, and the shape is always set to correspond to a constant breast size. Furthermore, the conventional wire or bone, which is a single piece of spring steel, has a certain weight compared to braziers without wire or bone, so it is difficult to use a hard type with a thicker cross section. As the wire or bone becomes stiffer, it becomes stiffer, but the elastic force of the wire or bone inevitably decreases.If you want to expect elastic force from the wire or bone, use a wire with a thin cross section. Alternatively, bones were required, and in such cases, the shape-retaining ability and shaping ability of a cup wire could not be expected. This is due to the characteristics of crystalline metals.
Similarly to the former, when the latter wire or bone is used for the curved lower edge of a cup such as a brassiere, it is pre-curved to follow that shape, and is also used for long line bras and high waist girdles. When used for the side parts of body suits, etc., wires or bones are generally straight in shape, but if such wires or bones are used, for example, at the curved lower edge of the cup, they can be used as metallic cup wires. Even if the breasts are relatively flexible and flexible, they cannot correct the misalignment caused by the swinging of the breasts or the tendency to shift toward the side, and if the breasts are made to follow the breasts, distortion will occur, making it difficult to align the breasts. The wire shape cannot be maintained, and once a crease line occurs, it tends to bend easily, and there is also a risk of breakage during sewing, resulting in defects in poor durability. In addition, when the wire is shaped into a substantially straight line and is applied vertically to the side of a bodysuit (usually referred to as a bone in this case), even though it can be expected to fit the body surface in the vertical direction, Because it does not follow the complex and subtle movements of the skin on the body surface, and especially cannot subtly bend in all directions other than the vertical direction, it has a poor corrective effect, and the desired shape retention and modeling power cannot be obtained. However, it was a matter of regret that the fit was uncomfortable and worsened. As mentioned above, among the various wires or bones used in conventional foundations, lingerie, and other clothing, metal wires or bones made of so-called spring steel are necessary when rigidity is expected. It is necessary to make the width of the wire thicker, but on the other hand, if it is made thicker, the expected elasticity will decrease.
Since it has contradictory functions, a certain thickness is required to provide both rigidity and elasticity.
Therefore, it is heavy when worn, deforms due to washing etc. and lacks durability, flexibility does not provide a comfortable feeling when worn, the area of use is limited, and the elastic range is specified. Problems such as those mentioned above are involved. In addition, wires or bones made of synthetic resin wires have poor rigidity and relatively elasticity, but at the same time they lack the supporting force as wires, they also lack elasticity and durability, which is especially important for clothing that is desired to be thin and lightweight. This left some problems. Therefore, the applicant of the present application, using Japanese Patent Application No. 63-256413 (see Japanese Unexamined Patent Publication No. 2-104701), arranged a plurality of thin wire-like wires closely around the outer circumference of a core wire,
Each of them is wound so as to form a so-called spiral shape,
We have proposed a prenatal cup wire that is bent into a semicircular spring body, and by adopting this technical means, a flexible cup wire that is flexible and elastic can be obtained, and it can be used during pregnancy. It can track the base and height of the breast as it expands and expands over time.
This technique can produce effects such as giving the wire a supple deformation due to its elasticity, but this technique is pre-curved, that is, heat-treated to match the curved lower edge of the cup. By adopting a semicircular spring body as a condition, the excellent effects described above will be achieved. That technique uses a plurality of wire-like thin wires, but these thin wires are wire rods of 0.3 to 0.8 mm and cannot be called ultra-fine metal fibers as in the present invention. (Problems to be Solved by the Invention) However, in the foundation, lingerie, and other clothing according to the present invention, and in the stranded wire or bone using the amorphous metal fiber for the clothing, the above-mentioned conventional It has been developed as a result of intensive research in view of defects in wires or bones caused by metal wires or synthetic resin wires.
By using twisted wires or bones produced by twisting amorphous metal (alloy) fibers in clothing such as foundations, lingerie, or other clothing, the The wires or bones follow the same movement as the clothing body in all directions, not just the horizontal direction other than the vertical direction, and are thin and flexible, but have toughness and elasticity (stickiness), so they can be moved in the necessary areas. The object of the present invention is to provide clothing that maintains desired shape retention and formability to an appropriate degree, as well as stranded wires or bones using amorphous metal fibers that can be used for the clothing. The above stranded wires or bones using amorphous metal fibers are made using amorphous metal fibers.
This includes a case where the stranded wire is made of 100% amorphous metal fiber, and a case where the outer periphery of the stranded wire made of amorphous metal fiber is covered with another stranded wire made of metal fiber. (Means for Solving the Problems) In order to achieve the above-mentioned objects, it is preferable to use stranded wire or bone fibers for clothing such as foundations, lingerie, and other clothing according to the present invention, and for using the amorphous metal fibers for clothing. In the
Twisted wires or bones made of amorphous metal fibers are sewn to desired lengths at desired locations on clothing bodies such as foundations, lingerie, and other clothing, so that the clothing body bends in all directions.
Foundations, lingerie, and other clothing that apply shape-retaining force in the longitudinal direction of wires or bones, and that follow the deformation caused by movement of the clothing body in directions other than the longitudinal direction without sensing any special resistance force. It is characterized by the use of amorphous metal fibers for clothing such as foundations, lingerie, and other clothing made by twisting multiple ultra-fine amorphous metal fibers together to form wire rods. In addition, a foundation is formed into a wire by covering the outer periphery of a core wire made by twisting multiple ultra-fine amorphous metal fibers with a metal fiber layer made by twisting other appropriate metal fibers. It is characterized by stranded wires or bones using amorphous metal fibers for clothing such as lingerie and other clothing, and a coating layer made of a synthetic resin material is coated on the outer periphery of the strands or bones using amorphous metal fibers. It is something that is being formed. (Function) Clothing such as foundations, lingerie, and other clothing according to the present invention, as well as stranded wires or bones using amorphous metal fibers for clothing, have shape retention properties for the human body when the clothing is worn. Twisted wires or bones using amorphous metal fibers are sewn in advance to the necessary parts where shapeability and shapeability are required. , the wire exhibits a shape-retaining force against movement in the vertical direction, and also exhibits bending ability in all directions other than the vertical direction, similar to the clothing material that follows the minute movements of the clothing. On the other hand, the wire has rigidity, elasticity, thinness, flexibility, and tenacity, so even if the wire is bent at random, a force is generated to return it to its original straight shape. As a result, clothing always has the necessary shape retention and functions that play a certain role in shaping parts. (Example) Next, an example of the present invention will be described in detail. The accompanying drawings show an example of implementation according to the present invention, and FIGS. 4 to 13 illustrate substantially used parts. 1 is an amorphous metal fiber used in the present invention, and the amorphous metal fiber 1 is also called an amorphous metal fiber, and its composition is, for example, 45% cobalt, 12% iron, 10% chromium, 9% silicon, and 13% boron. However, depending on the composition, an iron-silicon-boron system or a cobalt-iron-silicon-boron system can be appropriately selected. Such amorphous amorphous metal fiber 1 is produced with a circular cross section by a method called the so-called liquid quenching method, in which an alloy in a liquid state is ultra-rapidly solidified in a solution. (Amorphous) metals are materials that do not have long-range regular atomic arrangements like crystalline metals, but have irregular atomic arrangements, and their structural arrangements have many gaps and are microscopically invisible. Even if it is homogeneous, it is said to be more homogeneous and isotropic when viewed macroscopically. A qualitative explanation of deformation in comparison with crystalline metals and amorphous metals will be explained based on FIGS. 14 and 15. In the case of crystalline metals, FIG.
The figure shows the case of an amorphous metal, and the yield point is the point where dislocations begin to move when shear stress is applied, as indicated by the arrow.However, in crystalline metals, after large deformation occurs due to multiplication of dislocations, the yield point is the point at which the dislocations begin to move. Amorphous metals undergo work hardening and breakage, but amorphous metals have the characteristic that once deformation begins, the deformation progresses with almost no resistance and breaks. In other words, in crystalline metals, the process is yield - work hardening - local shrinkage - rupture.
After yielding, amorphous metals deform and break only on one shear plane. Deformation in crystalline metals occurs uniformly throughout due to work hardening, but
In amorphous metals, deformation occurs non-uniformly due to non-work hardening properties. In this way, we focused on the unique fiber form of amorphous metal fibers (amorphous metal fibers), and investigated the high strength, corrosion resistance, elasticity (tackiness), processing characteristics, and durability of the amorphous metal fibers. The present invention has been made advantageous by developing characteristics such as abrasion resistance and toughness and a certain shape. Then, the amorphous metal fibers 1 are twisted together to obtain straight twisted wires or bones 3. At this time, the amorphous metal fibers 1 are made of one ultra-fine fiber with a wire diameter of 115 μm and one fiber with a wire diameter of 100 μm. Using a suitable number of 6 or more strands of strands, the rise dimension of a given wire or bone, e.g. 0.9
Wire A can be produced by closely arranging the wire and winding it into a spring shape to obtain a wire diameter of mm, or one ultra-fine filament with a diameter of 115 μm or one fiber with a wire diameter of 100 μm is produced.
The outer periphery of the core wire obtained by closely arranging the books and winding them into a spring shape is further coated with other appropriate metal fibers 2, e.g.
Using 30 100μm stainless steel fibers, piano fibers, shape memory alloy fibers, titanium fibers, etc.
In some cases, wire rods B which are closely aligned and wound around the wire rods in a spring-like manner are used to form a predetermined wire or bone upward dimension. In this case, if the core wire made of amorphous metal fibers in the innermost part is right-twisted, 12 of the other appropriate metal fibers 2 in the middle part are left-handed, and 18 other appropriate metal fibers 2a in the outermost part are twisted in the left. It is formed so that the twist direction is right-handed. Note that the above wire diameter is just a certain example, and the wire diameter is not limited to this, and any wire diameter close to this wire diameter may be used, or all the wire diameters may be the same diameter. Reference numeral 5 denotes a coating layer made of a synthetic resin material such as nylon that surrounds and covers the outer periphery of the above-mentioned twisted wire or bone 3, and the coating layer 5 is formed at a coating temperature of, for example, 240°C. ing. 6 is, for example, 3 to 5 from both ends of the stranded wire or bone 3 on which the coating layer 5 is formed.
It is a synthetic resin cap that fits about mm
The cap 6 can prevent the cap from punching through and damaging the material when attached to the clothing body 4. In some cases, urethane resin or the like may be applied to other than the cap 6. Thus, the twisted wires or bones 3 made of specially produced amorphous metal fibers are sewn and integrated into the clothing body 4 as shown in FIGS. 4 to 13. In FIG. 4, twisted wires or bones 3 made of amorphous metal fibers are sewn to the curved upper edge of the cup of a strapless brassiere to improve its functionality. The term "sewing" as used herein refers to, for example, a case where a bias tape or the like is used and a wire or the like is inserted into the bag, but is not limited thereto. In Fig. 5, stranded wires or bones 3 made of amorphous metal fibers are sewn vertically from the upper edge to the lower edge of the armpit fabric of a strapless brassiere, to avoid shrinkage or complexity of the armpit fabric. It is designed to follow the movement. In Fig. 6, a so-called sideless brassiere in which the armpit fabric is narrowed at the local end is sewn with stranded wires or bones 3 made of amorphous metal fibers on the outer edge of the cup from the upper tip of the cup to the narrowed part. By stabilizing this part when worn, a supporting force that maintains the shape of the breast is created, making it suitable for use in the summer. In FIG. 7, the curved portion of the lower edge of the cup is formed to have a relatively large extension, and the curved portion of the lower edge of the cup is formed to have a relatively large extent.
Twisted wires or bones 3 made of amorphous metal fibers are sewn on, and have shape-retaining and modeling functions that are intermediate between wire bras and non-wire bras, and are designed to create a stable and swaying bust. It is being In Fig. 8, stranded wires or bones 3 made of amorphous metal fibers are sewn vertically to the armpits and abdomen of the longline bra, respectively, to provide stability when worn and eliminate the feeling of looseness and tightness. It is designed as follows. In Figure 9, stranded wires or bones 3 made of amorphous metal fibers are sewn vertically to the armpits of the body suit, which provides stability when worn, eliminates the feeling of looseness and tightness, and has a light function. It is designed to provide a light-like wearing feeling. In Figure 10, stranded wires or bones 3 made of amorphous metal fibers are sewn vertically to the armpits of the high-waisted girdle from the waist to approximately the middle, providing the same wearing comfort as in Figure 9. It is designed to be obtained. In Fig. 11, stranded wires or bones 3 made of amorphous metal fibers are installed in the longitudinal direction on the sides, abdomen or back of the waist knitper.
are sewn to ensure a stable fit that does not come loose or feel uncomfortable. In FIG. 12, stranded wires or bones 3 made of amorphous metal fibers are sewn along the curved lower edge of the cup of the black sole,
Although it is a lingerie as a whole, it is designed to assist with shape retention and modeling in the necessary areas. In Fig. 13, stranded wires or bones 3 made of amorphous metal fibers are sewn along the upper and lower edges of the back cloth of a bra to improve the stability of the back cloth and to prevent it from coming loose and being tight. It is planned. Of course, it is also possible to apply the present invention to other sports bras and the like used for exercise. Therefore, when stranded wires or bones 3 made of amorphous metal fibers are sewn to the clothing body 4 in such areas, the body surface can exhibit movements such as vertical movement of the arm, walking movement, bending/extending movement, reversal movement, and warping movement. Therefore, it is desirable to follow this movement of the body surface and always return the clothing main body 4 to a regular shape. By applying the characteristics of amorphous metal fibers and twisting these fibers together, the most suitable wire or bone for the clothing body 4 can be obtained, and the clothing can be made in this way. When sewn to the required length for use, a longitudinal shape-retaining force always appears in the stranded wire or bone 3 made of the amorphous metal fiber, against the clothing body 4 which bends in all directions. , and not only in the horizontal direction but in all directions other than the vertical direction,
It exhibits the same movement as the clothing body 4, and can be made to follow the deformation caused by the movement without making the wearer feel any special resistance force. Therefore, the stranded wire or bone 3 according to the present invention, unlike conventional hard type wires using metal wires or soft type wires using synthetic resin wires, always has a high mobility on the body surface. It quickly responds to the material and gently returns to the aligned mounting position, and produces a unique movement by carefully correcting the defects of hard wires and soft wires. The mechanical properties of the amorphous wire (fiber) and the stainless steel wire (fiber) are as follows. (AMF wire refers to amorphous wire, ST wire and stainless steel wire.)

【table】

[Table] As can be understood from the above, when comparing the strength of amorphous wire and stainless steel wire at the same thickness, the former is about 5 times stronger than the latter, and when comparing the strength at the same weight, the former is stronger than the latter. About 5 times stronger. In other words, if the strength is the same, the latter will be about five times thicker and about five times heavier than the former. Also, when a bending force (pulling force) is applied, the former has 16 times more durability than the latter until it loses its shape. In other words, even if it is bent with 16 times the force of the latter, it will not lose its shape even if it is stretched. It lasts 10 times longer when subjected to repeated bending (if there is no major deformation), and deformation due to heat is minimal, and like the latter, the former does not rust. (Effects of the Invention) According to the present invention, by providing stranded wires or bones made by twisting ultra-fine amorphous metal fibers to clothing such as foundations, lingerie, and other clothing, the wires or bones can be , it has a shape-retaining force in the vertical direction, and it follows the same movement as the material of the clothing body not only in the horizontal direction other than the vertical direction but also in all directions, making it easy to bend, flexible, and flexible. Although it is thin, flexible, and sticky, it is also tough.
When the body of the clothing follows the complex movements of the body surface, the twisted wires or bones also follow and move, and at the same time, the moved twisted wires or bones are always well-shaped and straight. Since it has a function of returning to the sewn position shape by spring force, the shape retention and formability of the necessary parts of the clothing body can be maintained softly. In other words, it maintains the part in an auxiliary and reinforcing manner while making full use of the characteristics of the material. Further, in the present invention, since the wires or bones are formed using twisted wires, spring force appears in the soft state, and even if unreasonable deformation is applied, there is no damage due to the repulsive force. Furthermore, if other metal fiber strands are polymerized around the outer periphery of the amorphous metal fiber strand wire or bone, better flexibility can be expected.
Furthermore, stranded wires or bones made of amorphous metal fiber units are suitable for areas where toughness is desired, such as thin wires.
