Description

[Detailed description of the invention] <Industrial application field> The present invention prevents the collar part from deforming due to stacking, etc. during packaging, packaging, or sales of folded shirts with collars. This invention relates to a shirt collar shape retaining device that is attached to the collar part of a shirt in order to maintain the shape of the collar.

<Prior Art> Conventionally, as a shape retainer for a shirt collar, a protruding piece was provided at one end of a thin plate having an appropriate waist and flexibility, and an engaging groove into which the protruding piece was inserted was formed at the other end. There was one in which the left and right ends of the rectangular main body were engaged and inserted into the inner surface of the collar to prevent the collar from deforming. However, with such a rectangular shape, the shape retainer sometimes moves during transportation or falls off upward. So the 8th
As shown in the figure and FIG. 9, the upper and lower edges 11a, 11b
In a state where both the left and right ends of the main body 11 are connected to the lower edge 11b of the inverted character-shaped main body 11 formed by giving an appropriate angle from the middle, A tongue piece 14 that can be bent forward is integrally provided and inserted between the front and rear body parts to prevent the shape retaining tool 15 from moving or falling off.

<Problems to be solved by the invention> However, in the case of this type of shape-retaining device 15, the eighth
As is clear from what is shown in the figure, the tongue piece 14
protrudes significantly downward from the lower edge 11b of the main body 11, and as a result, during manufacturing, not only the material area per piece of the main body increases as shown by the imaginary line X, but also the unused area of the material. It has the drawback of being large and, as a result, requiring a large amount of material. Further, since the tongue piece 14 protrudes outward, there is a problem in that it is difficult to bundle and pack the shape retaining tool 15.

The present invention has been devised in view of the above circumstances, and it is an object to provide a shirt collar shape retainer that eliminates the above-mentioned drawbacks and can reduce manufacturing costs.

<Means for Solving the Problems> In order to achieve the above object, the configuration of the present invention will be explained using FIGS. 1 and 3 corresponding to the embodiment. The tool is made of a thin plate having an appropriate stiffness and flexibility, and forms a projecting piece 2 at one end of the main body 1 in an inverted shape, which is formed with an appropriate angle between the upper and lower edges at the middle of the left and right sides, and
A plurality of long grooves 3 into which the projecting pieces 2 are inserted are provided near the other end, and a tongue piece 4 is provided that can be bent outward along the lower edge 1b when the projecting pieces 2 are engaged with the long grooves 3. A notch 1c is formed.

<Function> Sheet A according to the present invention having such a shape
As shown in FIGS. 2 and 3, the collar shape retainer is made by bending the tongue piece 4 forward while engaging the left and right ends of the main body 1, and inserting the main body 1 into the inner surface of the collar B of the shirt. The main body 1 prevents the collar B from deforming when sheets A are piled up, etc., and the tongue piece 4 is inserted between the front and back bodies to prevent the shape retaining device 5 from moving during transportation, etc. and prevents it from falling off.

<Example> Hereinafter, an example of the present invention will be described based on the drawings.

In the embodiment shown in FIGS. 1 and 2, the upper edge 1a and the lower edge 1b are formed from the middle of the left and right by thin plates having appropriate stiffness and flexibility, such as cardboard, celluloid, or other synthetic resin materials. A projecting piece 2 is integrally formed on one end of a horizontally long main body 1 formed in an inverted shape with an appropriate angle, and the main body 1 is bent into a circular shape near the other end so that it can be attached to the inner surface of the collar B of various shirts A. A plurality of long grooves 3 are formed into which the protrusions 2 are inserted in order to attach them, and the lower edge 1 is formed approximately at the middle between the left and right middle and both ends of the main body 1 with both ends of the main body 1 engaged.
A collar shape retainer 5 for the shirt A is formed by forming an inverted U-shaped notch 1c that can be bent outward along the direction b. Then, as shown in FIG. 3, the main body 1 with both left and right ends engaged is inserted into the inner surface of the collar B of the shirt A, and the left and right tongue pieces 4 are inserted between the front and back body parts to make the collar. It is constructed to prevent the collar shape retainer 5 from falling off from the inner surface of B.

<Another embodiment> The collar shape retaining tool 5 for shirt A according to the present invention is the fourth embodiment.
As shown in the figure, the lower ends of the notches 1c forming the tongue pieces 4 may be directed to opposite sides, and a notch 1d along the lower edge 1b of the main body 1 may be formed in the middle of the notches 1c. , and the one shown in FIG. 5 has a long groove 1e instead of the cut 1d.
In either case, the tongue piece 4 can be easily bent outward. In addition, as shown in FIG.
It may be configured such that a plurality of them are provided on each of the left and right sides from the middle. Further, the shape of the tongue piece 4 may be trapezoidal or rectangular as shown in FIGS. 7A and 7B.

Although the embodiments considered to be representative of the present invention have been described above, the present invention is not necessarily limited to the structures of these embodiments. It can be implemented with appropriate modification within the scope of achieving the following effects.

<Effects> As is clear from the above, the shirt collar shape retainer of the present invention is capable of being bent outward along the lower edge of the main body when both ends of the main body are engaged. Since the notch is formed to serve as a tongue piece, it prevents the collar shape retainer 1 from falling off from the collar of the shirt when retaining the shape of the shirt collar and transporting it, and at the same time prevents the collar shape retainer 1 from falling off as shown by the imaginary line X in Fig. 1. The area of material used per shape retainer 5 can be reduced, and the unused portion can also be reduced, resulting in a reduction in the amount of material used. Furthermore, by using a portion of the main body as the tongue piece, the entire body is formed into a rectangular shape, so that the main body can be easily bundled and packed.
