Description

[Detailed Description of the Invention] <Industrial Application Field> The present invention relates to a garment structure that is comfortable to wear, has excellent movement, and does not cause tightness or sagging. It has excellent chiropractic effects and can be applied to a variety of clothing, especially suitable for women's underwear and before chiropractic care, but it is also suitable for work clothes, exercise clothes, and leisure clothes that require a lot of body movement for both men and women. <Conventional technology> Conventionally, when manufacturing clothing, a so-called three-dimensional cutting method has been adopted. In this case, the method of measuring the human body is based on the vertical and horizontal coordinates on the surface of the human body (for example, the Japanese Society of Ergonomics, Clothing Division, New Edition, Clothing and the Human Body, 1983 edition, Fl. Also, the amount of movement is determined by the amount of variation in the vertical and horizontal coordinates, and when making clothes, take this amount of variation into account and make it larger or use stretchable material in parts. do. This method causes the clothes to sag. In addition, the way clothing is fastened to the body depends on the so-called vertical and horizontal (ring-shaped) locking type in the vertical or transverse direction based on a stationary body, such as hanging on the shoulder or hip bone,
It relies on methods of tightening or tying using rubber strings, cords, obi, belts, etc., using uneven parts and hard and soft parts.

In addition, in order to correct a woman's proportions and prevent the deformation of the breasts and buttocks, various types of underwear and pre-synthetic treatments have traditionally been considered.The most typical ones are bras, corsets, and girdles.

There are bodysuits etc. These are also manufactured based on the same idea as above, and have a structure based on vertical and horizontal locking.

<Problems to be Solved by the Invention> These conventional clothing designs rely on measuring the vertical and horizontal coordinates of the body surface of a stationary body, and even when the amount of variation due to movement is taken into account, After all, it is based on a vertical and horizontal locking shape with poor plasticity. Although the vertical and horizontal (ring-shaped) locking type is suitable for the movement of the human body back and forth and left and right, it tends to be inconvenient when the body twists or moves diagonally. On the other hand, it tends to cause burrs and sagging.Also, before the treatment, the bust and hip areas should be covered with wire or plastic molds.
The J method is often used to tighten the muscles in vertical and horizontal rings by preparing and fitting them, or by using a rubber material with high elasticity. Since it is not based on placement or movement, it is not only not effective for the chiropractor, but also causes the tightening part to dig in, which has the opposite effect. ) may cause poor blood circulation and subcutaneous swelling in some cases.

Muscle Weakness 9 The way clothing is attached to the body, which can easily lead to deterioration of body shape, has an important role in not only the structure of clothing, but also the various functions, performance, and effects imposed on clothing. . The vertical and horizontal locking type has little possibility of movement, and
Unable to adapt to the movements of the human body, especially the joint movements of muscles,
In addition, it is particularly lacking in chiropractic functions, performance, and effects.

In order to solve these problems, it is expected to develop a desirable clothing form based on the movement structure of the human body.Based on the physiological and exercise physiological observations of the human body, we can develop a clothing form that matches its characteristics. At the same time, the purpose is to find the appropriate way to connect the human body and clothing (locking form) and its structure.

Based on this idea, Mizu Applicant first used a single elastic core band to connect two or more opposing locking points on the human body not only when the body is stationary but also when the body is in motion. In addition, there is a locking type (locking type) that is continuously connected to suitability and that supports swinging parts such as the breasts, buttocks, and abdomen simply and dynamically.
(locking structure) was set. He further developed it into a form of clothing, invented women's clothing, and filed an application for utility model registration (see Utility Model Publications No. 57-5406 and 57-5407). It was confirmed that locking by linking two or more locking points is very effective and also has a holistic effect.

However, I was still not completely satisfied. In other words, this idea did not recognize that the basis of body movement is muscle movement, and the correlation between this and the form of clothing attachment, so the elastic band was used in an incomplete manner. Since the locking points were connected continuously,
The position of the elastic band and the movement of the body did not match easily. In other words, there was a lack of recognition of the correlation between muscle groups and locking shapes.

Measures to Solve Problems Due to its structure and performance, the human body works in conjunction with the skeletal system through sophisticated and precise combinations of muscle groups and their interconnected systems. Moreover, in order to construct clothing that has the function of flexibly moving the fulcrum of movement, moving the center of gravity of the entire body, and maintaining balance, it is natural that this important point in terms of the structure and performance of the human body will be compromised. It is necessary to make sure that this does not happen.

In other words, since body movements are performed based on the action of muscles, when clothes are worn, the locking structure is determined according to the position of the muscles and the direction of their action (direction of muscle expansion/contraction/tension). The stop shape is not a simple ring shape, but a symmetrical or opposing link of three or more locking parts (for example, see Figure 2-45 of the New Edition Clothing and Human Body 41983 Edition, page 8A of the Japan Ergonomics Society Clothing Department extra line). It is desirable to use a locking type.

Therefore, in the clothing structure according to the present invention, the clothing is provided with a part that is stretchable, and the stretchable part is configured to expand and contract in accordance with the action direction of the human body's muscles when worn. The clothes are made to expand and contract according to the wearer's movements, and the elastic parts allow the clothes to be comfortably attached to the body.

Locking means fastening clothing to the body, and locking type is the method of doing so.

A locking part is a part where the degree of closeness between clothing and the body (fitness) is strong, and it is a place where the clothing mainly stops on the body, and may be wide or narrow in terms of area.

Jointly locking (joint locking type) means that these locking parts are not locked independently in a single ring shape, but each locking part is connected to other different parts of the body. It is a continuous state as affected by the movement of the locking part of the part.

The effect of this joint locking type will be more pronounced if locking parts that match three or more symmetrical or opposing muscle positions are linked, but it is not necessarily necessary to have three or more positions, At least, it is desirable to link two different muscle positions and areas that match the direction of action.

Here, the main muscles of the body and their directions of action will be explained based on FIG. 1 is the trapezius muscle that runs from the dorsal side to the front, 2 is the pectoralis major muscle that runs from the root of the arm to the chest,
3 is the external oblique muscle that runs from the flank to the crotch, 4 is the latissimus dorsi muscle that runs from the back to the chest, and 5 is the gluteus maximus muscle that is located in the buttocks.

The direction of action of each muscle is as indicated by the arrow.

The trapezius muscle l, along with the scalene muscles, is involved in the movement of the neck and arms, and when clothing is attached to the shoulders or neck, it is desirable to have a shape that matches the direction of action of this muscle, and the pectoralis major muscle. Together with the latissimus dorsi muscle 4, the muscle 2 is involved in movements of the arm, etc., and in women, it is closely related to the movement of the breasts. The external oblique muscle 3, together with the autologous oblique muscle and the rectus abdominis muscle, is involved in the movement of the legs and hips and the forward and backward bending of the body, and in order to smooth the movements of the legs and hips, it is necessary to match the direction of action of these muscles. is important. latissimus dorsi 4
Along with the pectoralis major muscle 2, it is closely related to the movement of the upper body such as puffing out and squeezing the chest, and is located in the center of the back. The gluteus maximus 5, along with the psoas major, is involved in the movements of the buttocks and thighs, and plays a particularly important role in L, which supports the entire body and balances movement. These muscle groups are connected to each skeleton and its joints, and are able to withstand and operate.

Embodiment Example Next, the structure of the garment according to the present invention will be explained based on FIGS. is a front view, (b)
is a rear view, and (C) is a side view. In addition, it may be used as a garment as it is, or the outer shape of the garment may be designed using this locking shape. In each figure, 6 is the trapezius muscle l.
7 is the part that matches the pectoralis major muscle 2, 8 is the part that matches the external oblique muscle, and 9 is the part that matches the latissimus dorsi muscle 4. 10 is a portion that coincides with the gluteus maximus 5, and if the expandable and contractible portion is configured in this way, the purpose of the present invention can be achieved.

Next, to explain the structure of the stretchable part, this stretchable part is made of stretchable materials such as "Power Net" manufactured by Toyobo Co., Ltd., "Royiki" manufactured by Asahi Kasei Co., Ltd., You can use power net material or satin net material such as "Operon" manufactured by DuPont, cut it into a strip or desired shape, and sew, join, or glue it to the outer material. As a method, you can combine multiple materials with different degrees of elasticity to achieve the desired degree of elasticity depending on the part, or overlap several layers of elastic materials as necessary. , by adjusting the weaving method, knitting method, embroidery method, etc. of the part, an arbitrary stretch rate or recovery rate required for the desired part may be obtained, and a stretchable structure may be obtained.
This method is particularly effective for underwear, pantyhose, etc. because it looks natural when worn.

However, when you move your body while wearing clothing with such a structure, the parts that can be expanded and contracted also move in response to the movement of your muscles. Since the position of the muscles and the direction of their action match the locking shape and direction of expansion/contraction, the movement of the clothes follows the movement of the body without difficulty, and the clothes are always locked to the body in a stable state. And pectoralis major muscle matching tube place 7
has a bust-enhancing effect that tries to move the bust inward and upward, and the external oblique muscle matching point 8 has a shape-up effect by holding the abdomen and flanks due to the tension relationship between the front, back, left, and right sides of the elastic part.
The gluteus maximus muscle matching point 10 creates a hip-lifting effect that lifts the entire buttocks upward, including the part of the buttocks near the crotch where fat tends to adhere, and the latissimus dorsi muscle matching point 9 improves the fit of the entire garment on the body. At the same time, it has a corrective effect on the human body (such as hunched back), and at the same time acts as the center of the tension relationship of the entire garment (the entire latching shape is a solid structure that imposes a uniform phenomenon), and has a moderate fit on the back. Exhibits a frictional effect.

<Effects of the Invention> As described above, according to the clothing structure according to the present invention, the clothing has a structure that can be expanded and contracted in accordance with the direction of action of the body's muscles, so that the clothing does not become unreasonable when the body moves. It is comfortable to wear and has an excellent therapeutic effect, and can be used for various types of clothing, and its effects are extremely large.
