Abstract

PURPOSE:To provide a local member for clothing intended to improve its stretchability and flexibility by assuredly conducting the jointing and sewing of its peripheral edge and by being made as thin as possible so as not to impair its waterproofness. CONSTITUTION:A local member K is represented by the armpit or knee backing member of a wet suit W as an example of clothing in the context with the general member B of the wet suit W. The local member K is provided with a peripheral edge 10 having peripheral edge face 12 to be jointed to another and the inner side 11 from the peripheral edge 10 is made thinner than the peripheral edge 10. When the local member K is to be jointed to the general member B, the peripheral edge face 1 of the general member B and that 12 of the local member K are mutually jointed through an adhesive 2 and the peripheral edge 3 of the general member B and that 10 of the local member K are then mutually sown using a string 4 by scoop sewing technique. In this case, as the thickness D of the peripheral edge 10 is equal to that T of the general member B, both the peripheral edges meet well, and also, both the upper and lower faces are coplanar, thereby preventing inadequate jointing and/or malsewing and ensuring the aimed jointing and sewing to be accomplished.

Description

Detailed Description of the Invention

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a local member for clothes, and more particularly to a local member for waterproof clothes such as wet suits worn for scuba diving, windsurfing, surfing and the like.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art Generally, as shown in FIGS. 6 (a) and 6 (b), for example, a wet suit W will be described as this type of garment. The wet suit W is formed in a shape that matches the body shape. It is formed by connecting the members of each part. The members of the respective parts are formed into a required shape by being formed into a sheet shape with a stretchable material along the body and cut or molded.

In such a wetsuit W,
Generally, a local member K at a portion where expansion and contraction or flexure is the largest when a human body moves, for example, a so-called armpit member K under the armpit
a, the knee back member Kb on the back of the knee is formed thinner than the general member B as shown in FIG. The thickness of the local member K is, for example, t = 2 mm while the thickness of the general member B is T = 3 mm.

As for the members of these respective parts, the general members B are shown in FIG.
In addition, the general member B and the local member K are shown in FIG.
As shown in FIG. 3, the peripheral end faces 1 are joined together via the adhesive 2, and the peripheral end portions 3 are sewn together with the thread 4. When the thread penetrates the member, this suture impairs the waterproof property, so that the sewing is performed by so-called rake stitch which does not penetrate the member on both inner and outer sides.

[0005]

By the way, in the above-mentioned clothes, in order to make it easier for the human body to move, the local member K is made as thin as possible, and further stretchable and flexible. There is a request to improve. However, if it is made too thin, the joint may become insufficient,
There is a problem that the seam cannot be sewn by scooping or a sewn mistake occurs, and the waterproof property of the part is impaired. Therefore, in the related art, another stitching means such as a so-called overlock for stitching through the peripheral end portion is used for stitching, but this also causes a problem that the waterproofness of the portion is impaired.

The present invention has been made in view of the above problems, and its object is to make sure that the peripheral end portions are joined and sewn together so as not to impair the waterproofness of the portions and be as thin as possible. However, the present invention is to provide a local member for clothing that has improved stretchability and flexibility.

[0007]

The technical means of the present invention for solving the above-mentioned problems is a sheet-like member made of a stretchable material, the peripheral end surface of which is joined to the other and the peripheral end portion is sewn. In a local member of a garment that forms a part of a garment, the inner part inside the peripheral end is formed thinner than the wall thickness of the peripheral end.

[0008]

According to the local member of the garment according to this means, when the local member of the garment is joined to another member, the peripheral end faces are joined and sewn together. In this case, if the peripheral end portion of the local member is made to have the same thickness as other members, it is possible to prevent a situation such as insufficient joining, unsewn stitches, or sewn mistakes. The waterproofness of the part is secured.

[0009]

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS A local member for clothes according to an embodiment of the present invention will be described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. 1, 2 and 6
As shown in (a) and (b), the local member of the garment according to the embodiment is the local member K of the wetsuit W, and in the embodiment, the so-called armpit member Ka under the armpit of the wetsuit W is used.
The knee back member Kb on the back of the knee is configured as a local member K for the general member B of the wetsuit W.

Local member K of these wetsuits W
Is formed of a stretchable material into a sheet shape. For example,
As shown in FIG. 3, the stretchable cloth 6 is provided on both sides of the sheet 5 of the individually foamed chloroprene rubber in which air bubbles are independently provided.
The one with 6 attached is used.

Further, as shown in FIG. 4, the local member K of this wetsuit W is provided with a peripheral end portion 10 having a peripheral end surface 12 to be joined to the other, and the inside of the peripheral end portion 10 is inside. The portion 11 is recessed from both sides and is formed thinner than the wall thickness of the peripheral end portion 10. As for the thickness, for example, the thickness D of the peripheral end portion 10 is D = 3 mm, and the thickness d of the inner portion 11 is d =
It is about 1 mm. The wall thickness D of the peripheral end portion 10 matches the wall thickness T of the general member B. That is, the inner portion 11 of the local member K is formed thinner than the wall thickness t (FIG. 8) of the conventional local member K.

When the local member K of the wetsuit W is produced, for example, a press die is used to press only the inner portion 11 from both sides to make the wall thickness thin, and then,
The outer peripheral shape is formed into a required shape by cutting or molding. That is, as shown in FIG. 1, the side gusset member Ka
Is formed in a substantially cross shape having a side 13 joined to the sleeve and a side 14 joined to the armpit, and as shown in FIG. 2, the knee back member Kb is formed in a substantially rectangular shape.

Therefore, when the local member K of the wetsuit W is joined to the general member B, the peripheral end face 1 of the general member B and the peripheral end face 12 of the local member K of the wetsuit W are connected as shown in FIG. Are bonded via an adhesive agent 2, and then the peripheral end portion 3 of the general member B and the peripheral end portion 10 of the local member K are sewn with a thread 4 by scooping.

In this case, since the wall thickness D of the peripheral end portion 10 matches the wall thickness T of the general member B, the peripheral end faces 1 and 12 have the same size and fit well, and both upper and lower surfaces Therefore, it is possible to prevent the joining from being insufficient, the stitches cannot be sewn by scooping, and a mistake in stitching is prevented, so that the joining and the stitching are reliably performed.

In the wetsuit W manufactured in this manner, the local member K is used on the armpit and the back of the knee,
Since the inner portion 11 of the local member K is formed thinner, it is highly stretchable and flexible, which makes it easier for the human body to move. Also, the thinness reduces bulky discomfort.

FIG. 5 shows another example of the local member K. The local member K includes an inner portion 1 that is inside the peripheral end portion 10.
1 is dented from one side by a press die to form a peripheral end portion 10
Is formed thinner than the wall thickness of. As for the thickness, for example, the thickness D of the peripheral end portion 10 is D = 3 mm, while the thickness of the inner portion 11 is about d = 1 mm, as described above. The wall thickness D of the peripheral end portion 10 matches the wall thickness T of the general member B. With this local member K, the same operation and effect as described above can be obtained. Moreover, since the inner side portion 11 of the local member K is recessed from one side, the other surface can be flush with the general member B.

Although the wet suit W has been described as the garment in the above embodiment, it is not necessarily limited to this, and it may be a dry suit, for example, it is formed of a stretchable material in a sheet shape. Any clothes will do. The material and shape of the local member K are not limited to those described above, and may be changed as appropriate. Further, the local member K is not limited to the armpit gusset member Ka and the knee lining member Kb described above, and needless to say, may be applied to another member.

[0018]

As described above, according to the local member for clothing of the present invention, since the inner portion inside the peripheral end portion is formed thinner than the wall thickness of the peripheral end portion, the peripheral end portion is The thickness can be the same as that of the member, so that when the peripheral end face is joined to another member and the peripheral end portion is sewn, the joint becomes insufficient,
It is possible to prevent a situation in which stitching is not performed or a stitching error occurs, and it is possible to reliably perform joining and stitching. As a result, the waterproof property of the part can be improved, which is particularly useful in a wet suit.

Further, since the peripheral end portions can be securely joined and sewn together, the thickness of the inner portion can be formed to be thinner than that of the conventional local member. There is an effect that stretchability and flexibility can be improved and motility can be improved.
