Description

Detailed Description of the Invention

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a garment, and more particularly to a garment having a light emitting portion and capable of safely performing night activities.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art When performing road construction at night,
The worker needs to wear a luminous body that can be recognized by the driver of the automobile. As such a luminous body, a narrow belt-like safety device containing a fluorescent paint or a reflective paint or colored with a fluorescent dye or a reflective dye is widely used. It is wrapped around and joined at both ends with Velcro (trademark) to ensure the safety of night work. However, since such a thin strip does not allow the driver or the like to recognize the presence of the worker because the light emitting area is small, it is formed in a vest shape and the front side of the upper body when worn over clothing. Wearing safety devices having a thick luminous strip extending from the shoulder to the rear side are also used.

[0003]

Since the vest-shaped safety device has a wide light emitting area from the front side to the rear side of the upper body, it exhibits an excellent effect in terms of ensuring safety. However, since it is worn over clothing, there is a risk that it will hinder work activities depending on its use.

Therefore, an object of the present invention is to provide a safety device which has a large light emitting area in the upper half of the body and can secure sufficient safety, but which does not hinder the wearer's actions. To do.

[0005]

To achieve this object, the present invention provides a garment in which luminescent cloths are separately attached to the front and back sides of the upper body cover.

In some cases, the cloth-like body and the cover have the same color.

[0007]

The luminescent cloth is directly attached to clothes such as raincoats, windbreakers, jumpers, coveralls, coats or work clothes. The attachment is usually performed by sewing or adhering with an adhesive, but a cloth or a velcro may be used so that the cloth can be detached from the clothing. As long as it is flexible and thin and emits light at night, it can be used as a cloth, but in many cases it is coated with vinyl on a fiber containing fluorescent paint or reflective paint, or colored with fluorescent dye or reflective dye. used.

The cloth-like body is attached to the front and rear sides of the cover of the upper body, but the cloth-like body on the front side and the cloth-like body on the rear side are separate bodies, and extend from the front side to the rear side beyond the shoulders. In addition, since it does not extend beyond the flank to the rear side, the cloth-like body does not feel bulky when the wearer moves the body.

Since the cloth-like body is directly attached to the clothes, it is preferable that the appearance of the clothes is not deteriorated. If the cloth-like body has the same color as the clothes, the cloth-like body is not extremely conspicuous and the good appearance of the clothes can be maintained. Therefore, especially for ordinary persons, there is no problem in ordinary wearing. For example, it is suitable when trying to provide casual jumpers. By making the cloth and the clothes have the same color based on the classification of red, orange, yellow, green, blue, purple, navy blue, black or ash, it is possible to sufficiently maintain the good appearance of the clothes.

Embodiments of the present invention will be described below with reference to the drawings.

FIG. 1 is a front view showing a case where the present invention is applied to rainwear, and FIG. 2 is a rear view of the rainwear.

The outerwear 1 of this rainwear is provided with a hood 3, which is attached to the outerwear 1 by a hook 5 so as to be removable. The entire rainwear including the hood 3 is colored orange, but a transparent see-through part 7 is formed on the front upper part of the hood 3,
The see-through portion 7 is formed so that the lower end is located between the wearer's nose and mouth. When the lower end of the see-through part 7 reaches only the nose, the lower field of view is narrowed. On the contrary, when it reaches the mouth, a wide area of the face can be seen through from the outside and is unattractive. On the front side of the hood 3, a chin rest 9 is also provided below, and after wearing, the chin rest 9 is hung under the chin to fix the tip end portion to the hood 3 with a hook 11.

An orange cloth piece 13 (cloth-like body) colored with a fluorescent dye or a reflective dye is sewn on both sides at the upper part of the front side (front body) of the outerwear 1, and the same at the rear side (back body). An orange V-shaped cloth 15 (cloth body) colored with a fluorescent dye or a reflective dye is sewn on. Cloth piece 13 and V-shaped cloth 15
You can secure enough safety by itself, but also 2 on each elbow of both sleeves and 1 on each lower side of pants 17.
Orange strip cloth colored with a book, fluorescent dye or reflective dye 1
9 and 21 are sewn in a ring shape. In place of the V-shaped cloth 15, two or three thick belt-shaped cloths extending in the lateral direction may be sewn to the rear side.

Reference numeral 23 in the drawing is a pocket. Also,
The outer garment 1 can be used in a form as shown in FIG. 3 by removing the hood 3. As shown in FIG. 4, the hood 3 is attached by erecting the collar 25 of the jacket 1 to expose the hook 5 and fitting the hook 5 of the hood 3 to the hook 5.

Inside the cuff 27 of the outerwear 1, a tightening rubber (not shown) is provided at the tip to form an inner cuff 29 that is fastened to the wrist, and the cuff 27 extends to the tip of the hand. Although it is configured to maintain the covered state,
When using a hand, the cuff 27 may be folded back to expose the hand as shown in FIG. In order to prevent the folded cuff 27 from returning to its original position, a hook 31 for maintaining the folded back may be provided as shown in FIG. 6, or a magic tape may be used in place of the hook 31. .

Hooks 32 are provided on the lower front side of the pants 17, respectively. By fitting the hooks 32, the lower end of the pants 17 is squeezed as shown in FIG.
The lower end of the pants 17 can be brought into close contact with the ankle.

FIG. 8 is an enlarged front view for explaining the structure of the mating portion at the center of the front side of the jacket 1, and FIG. 9 is an enlarged side view for explaining the double structure of the mating portion.

The connection by the mating portion on the front side of the jacket 1 is
The right end portion 35 of the right front body located on the left side of the drawing is overlapped with the inside of the left end portion 33 of the left front body located on the right side of the drawing, and the hook 3
It is carried out by joining the left end portion 33 and the right end portion 35 at 7, but the left end portion 33 is provided inside the left end portion 33.
A nipping portion 39 that extends further to the left and has an upper end lower than the upper end of the left end portion 33 is formed, and the left end portion 33 and the nipping portion 39 are formed.
The right end portion 35 is inserted between and to join. With this structure, even if rainwater enters between the left end portion 33 and the right end portion 35, the rainwater does not easily enter the inside of the outerwear 1, so that the raincoat is waterproof. The function can be enhanced. Clip 39 and right end 35
A hook 41 is provided at the upper end of the pinch portion 39 so that the pinch portion 39 and the right end portion 35 are joined together.
In order to more sufficiently join 9 and the right end portion 35 to obtain an excellent waterproof function, a hook may be provided in the middle of the sandwiching portion 39 and the right end portion 35, and further at the lower end.

[0019]

As described above, according to the present invention,
It is possible to provide a safety means that has a large light emitting area and can be easily confirmed, and that does not hinder the movement of the wearer's body.
