[Industrial applications]

 The present invention relates to improvement of waterproof clothing such as rain clothing used for leisure, sports, work in rain, and the like.

[0002]

[Prior art]

 Conventionally, this type of waterproof clothing is mainly composed of the left and right front torso parts, the left and right sleeve parts, the back torso part, and the collar part, and each of these members is made of a thermoplastic resin having waterproof property. It consists of sheets. Each of the above-mentioned members are joined together by welding the predetermined joining edges of adjacent members together by heat-pressurizing the overlapping portions by a heating and pressing method using high frequency (hereinafter, this joining The method is called "high-frequency bonding").

FIG. 5 shows a cross section of a main part of a back trunk of a conventional waterproof garment. The back trunk includes an upper back portion 6 and a lower back portion 7. Further, the lower edge 10 of the back upper portion 6 is provided in a state of loosely covering the upper edge 24 of the lower back portion 7a, thereby forming a ventilation path 17a for communicating the inside and outside of the waterproof clothing.

Further, the breathable nylon mesh sheet 9a is integrally high-frequency joined at its upper end to the joining edge between the collar (not shown) and the upper back 6, and its lower end is lower back 7a. Is high-frequency bonded to the upper edge 24 of the. Due to the presence of the mesh sheet 9a, the holding strength of the lower back 7a is secured, and the stuffy back surface and the like are prevented from coming into direct contact with the inner surface of the upper back 6 during the work, thereby improving comfort.

[0005]

[Problems to be solved by the device]

 However, when a worker wearing conventional waterproof clothing bends in the rain to work (that is, when the lower back 7a is inclined downward toward the upper edge 24 thereof), the upper back 7a The rainwater that has fallen onto the lower back 7a enters the ventilation path 17a along the slanted lower back 7a, and further enters the inside from the upper edge 24 of the lower back 7a to wet the clothes and body of the worker. there were.

The present invention has been made in view of the problems of the related art, and even when the wearer is performing a bending operation, the ventilation path between the upper back and the lower back allows the inside of the garment to be removed. The purpose is to provide waterproof clothing that can prevent water from entering.

[0007]

[Means for Solving the Problems]

 To achieve the above object, a waterproof garment according to the present invention includes at least a lower back and an upper back covering the upper part of the lower back, and the inside and outside of the clothing are communicated between the lower back and the upper back. In a waterproof garment having a ventilation path, a folded-back portion is provided on the upper part of the lower back over the entire width in the lateral direction.

In addition to the above-mentioned configuration, a connection member for connecting the inner surface of the back upper portion and the outer surface of the folded portion is stretched between the inner surface upper portion and the outer surface of the folded portion.

[0009]

[Action]

 In the waterproof garment according to the present invention, when an operator wearing the waterproof garment bends and works in the rain, for example, the rainwater that falls on the lower back does not move to the lower part of the lower back sloping downward. It penetrates the surface and enters the ventilation path. However, the rainwater that has entered will be blocked by the folded-back portion and will not enter the waterproof clothing.

Further, in the case of the above-mentioned configuration in which the connecting member is provided, the connecting member is pulled toward the upper part of the upper back by the bending operation of the worker, for example. And the folding | returning part stands up toward an inner surface of a back upper part in conjunction with a connection member. Therefore, rainwater can be blocked more surely by the erected folded portion.

【Example】

 A waterproof garment according to an embodiment of the present invention will be described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. 1 is a front view of a waterproof garment according to an embodiment of the present invention with a right front torso opened, FIG. 2 is a rear view of the waterproof garment, and FIG. 3 is the waterproof garment. FIG. 4 is a cross-sectional view taken along the line AA in FIG. 2 showing the overlapping portion of the upper back and the lower back of the garment, and FIG. 4 is a usage diagram of the waterproof garment.

However, the same components as those of the conventional waterproof garment shown in FIG. 5 are designated by the same reference numerals and detailed description thereof will be omitted, and the components having the same function will be the same. Use a numeric code that omits English subscripts.

As shown in FIGS. 1 to 3, the waterproof garment 1 of this embodiment has left and right front torso portions 2, 3, left and right sleeve portions 4,5, an upper back portion 6, a lower back portion 7, and a collar portion 8. , And each member of the mesh sheet 9 are mainly configured.

Of these, the mesh sheet 9 is made of nylon and is a breathable knit. The members other than the mesh sheet 9 are made of a synthetic resin sheet having a three-layer structure in which nylon threads are sandwiched between two thermoplastic resin sheets made of, for example, polyvinyl chloride, and are relatively inexpensive. It also has great tear strength and durability.

With respect to each of these members, the prototypes of the waterproof garment 1 are formed by high-frequency joining of the overlapping portions in a state where predetermined joining edges of adjacent members are overlapped.

In particular, in the waterproof garment 1, a folded back piece 12 (an example of a folded back portion) which is folded back toward the upper back portion 6 side at the folding portion 11 is formed in the vicinity of the upper end portion of the lower back portion 7. The inner surface of the bent portion 11 is joined by high frequency with a predetermined width over the entire lateral direction, whereby the displacement of the bent portion 11 is prevented and the strength is maintained.

In the mesh sheet 9 (an example of a connecting member), the upper edge 15 is integrally high-frequency joined together with the joining edge between the upper back 6 and the collar 8, and the lower edge 14 is formed on the outer surface of the folding piece 12. High-frequency bonding is performed in the vicinity of the bent portion 11.

Further, in FIGS. 1 and 2, 13 is a joining edge on the left and right side portions of the folding piece 12. The joint edges 13 are integrally high-frequency joined together with the joint edges of the left and right sleeve portions 4 and 5 and the upper back portion 6 to prevent water leakage from the left and right side portions of the folded piece 12 into the inside of the garment. There is. Reference numeral 16 is a spot-joint portion that is high-frequency-joined to spot-fix the lower edge 10 of the upper back portion 6 to the lower back portion 7. Instead of the point-joint portion 16, for example, a general-purpose hook or hook-and-loop fastener may be used to detachably attach the upper back portion 6 and the lower back portion 7 to each other.

Therefore, in the above-mentioned configuration, when the waterproof clothing 1 is actually used, a person wearing a waterproof hood (not shown) attached to the collar 8 and wearing waterproof trousers (not shown) in the rain Work etc.

At this time, when the worker wearing the waterproof garment 1 bends in the rain to work, the rainwater dropped on the lower back 7 travels through the lower back 7 as shown in FIG. To enter the ventilation path 17. However, since the rainwater W that has entered is blocked by the folding piece 12 and the joint edge 13, it does not enter the waterproof clothing 1 and does not wet the worker's body or clothing.

Moreover, the folding piece 12 is interlocked with the mesh sheet 9 that is pulled toward the collar portion 8 (in the direction of arrow P in the drawing) by the bending operation of the operator, and the inner surface of the upper back portion 6 is centered around the bending portion 11. Since it stands up to, the rainwater W can be blocked more reliably by the standing-up folded piece 12, and a large amount of rainwater W can be blocked, which is suitable for long-time rain work.

On the other hand, for example, when working while receiving a strong crosswind accompanied by rain on the back in an upright posture, rainwater sprayed on the surface of the lower back 7 rises on the surface of the lower back 7 with the wind. Even when the folded piece 12 intrudes into the ventilation path 17, the folded piece 12 stands up due to the wind pressure, so that the raised folded piece 12 can stop rainwater.

In the above embodiment, the mesh sheet 9 for connecting the inner surface upper part of the back upper part 6 and the outer surface of the folded piece 12 is used, but the connecting member of the present invention is not limited to this, and the ventilation path It is also possible to use a member that does not impair the air permeability of 17, such as a string-shaped member.

[0024]

[Effect of device]

 Since the present invention is configured as described above, even when the wearer bends down in the rain, for example, rainwater that falls on the lower back surface is stopped at the turnback portion. It is possible to prevent the inside of clothing from entering.

Further, in the case of the structure in which the connecting member is provided, the connecting member is pulled to the upper part of the inner surface of the back upper part, for example, at the time of bending operation, and the folded-back part stands up in conjunction with this. Therefore, rainwater can be further prevented from entering the inside of the garment by such a folded-back portion.
