Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a suspending device for trousers, and more particularly, to a suspending device for trousers which is not exposed to the outside and connected with a wearer's top to be supported, thereby preventing trousers from sliding down.
  • suspenders for trousers are used.
  • conventional suspenders are exposed to the outside because they are formed to support trousers outside a wearer's top, and hence, are items which many people avoid wearing.
  • Korean Utility Model Publication No. 20-1998-0019616 discloses a suspending device for trousers and Korean Patent Publication No. 10-2014-001126 discloses suspenders integrated with a top, but they have a disadvantage in that they are exposed to the outside. There were periods when the suspenders exposed to the outside of the top were recognized as a fashion item, but now, people tend to avoid wearing the suspenders by reason of exposure to the outside.
  • the present invention has been made to solve the above-mentioned problems occurring in the prior arts, and it is an object of the present invention to provide a suspending device for trousers which are not exposed to the outside and can prevent trousers from sliding down.

  • the suspending device supports the trousers in a state where a wearer's top is interposed between at least one of the elastic hooks of the inner clip and at least one of the coupling grooves of the outer clip.
  • the supporting means makes the outer clip be detachably attached to the trousers.
  • the supporting means includes: a base for the outer clip; and a screw connected to the base in a state where the trousers are interposed between the base and the screw.
  • the supporting means includes: a base for the outer clip; and a retaining arm extending from the base to be spaced apart at a predetermined interval, and the retaining arm is caught to a belt loop of the trousers in a state where the upper end portion of the trousers is interposed between the base and the retaining arm.
  • the inner clip includes an elastic member for applying elasticity to the outer clip when the inner clip is released from the outer clip.
  • the inner clip further includes a ring for connecting a shoulder strap to the inner clip.
  • the top is interposed between the upper elastic hook of the inner clip and an upper coupling groove of the outer clip, and the lower elastic hook of the inner clip is caught to a lower coupling groove of the outer clip to support the inner clip and the outer clip.
  • the elastic hooks of the inner clip respectively have end portions which extend in a direction that they face each other or in a direction that they get farther from each other.
  • the suspending device for trousers according to the present invention can support trousers at a fixed height because the suspending device is connected the trousers in such a way that the inner clip located on the inner face of the wearer's top is coupled with the outer clip located on the inner face of the trousers. Therefore, the suspending device according to the present invention is not exposed to the outside even in the state where the wearer wears the suspending device. That is, the suspending device for trousers is not exposed to the outside and can prevent trousers from sliding down.
  • the suspending device prevents the trousers from sliding down by the inner clip fixed to the wearer's top and the outer clip supported to the trousers. Therefore, the suspending device can prevent that the wearer's top goes up because the wearer's top and the trousers are connected and fixed to each other at a proper height.
