Abstract
A clothing strap retention device, or “holder,” in accordance with the techniques of the present disclosure enables a user to retain multiple shoulder or equivalent straps of a clothing garment proximate to one another at a region along the length of the straps. As a result, the effective length of the straps is reduced and the movement of the straps is restricted, thereby lifting up the garment and providing a better, more comfortable fit. Specifically, the holder includes a planar central portion having an equidimensional geometry that provides structural integrity to the holder, thereby enabling it to withstand torsional forces and prevent or reduce distortion such as twisting and warping. Additionally, the central portion includes a surface suitable for one or more of printing, embossing, and attaching an adhesive label to include any combination of text and graphical content for use in any of product marking, ornamental design, and advertisement.
Description
- This application is a continuation of U.S. patent application Ser. No. 13/907,914 filed Jun. 1, 2013.
- This disclosure relates to clothing garment accessories and, more particularly, to devices used to retain multiple shoulder straps, or similar straps, of a clothing garment within close proximity to one another to provide a better, more comfortable fit of the garment to its wearer.
- A clothing strap retention device may be used by a wearer of a clothing garment, such as a strapped shirt, dress, swimsuit, brassiere, or another strapped garment, to retain two or more shoulder straps, or similar straps, of the garment within close proximity to one another. As a result, the clothing strap retention device may restrict the movement of the straps and thus provide the wearer with a more comfortable fit of the garment. In one example, as described in U.S. Pat. No. 7,278,900, a particular clothing strap retention device referred to as a “bra strap holder” enables a wearer of a brassiere to retain two straps of the brassiere within close proximity to one another, thereby preventing the straps from falling from the wearer's shoulders.
- In general, the techniques of this disclosure are directed to a clothing strap retention device, or “holder,” that can be used by a wearer of a clothing garment to retain two or more shoulder straps, or similar straps, of the garment within close proximity to one another. For example, the clothing strap holder as described herein can be used to retain the straps within close proximity to one another at a particular region along the length of the straps. As a result, the clothing strap holder can be used to decrease the effective length of the straps and restrict their movement, thereby providing a better, more comfortable fit of the garment to the wearer. Furthermore, the clothing strap holder consistent with the disclosed techniques includes a planar central portion having a substantially equidimensional geometry that may provide enhanced structural integrity, such as increased torsional support, to the clothing strap holder, thereby preventing or reducing twisting, warping, or other distortion of the clothing strap holder during its use. Additionally, the clothing strap holder according to the techniques presented herein may, by virtue of having the above-described planar central portion, further provide a surface suitable for one or more of printing, embossing, and attaching an adhesive label to include any combination of text and graphical content. As a result, the surface of the planar central portion of the clothing strap holder can be used in any of product marking, ornamental design, and advertisement associated with the clothing strap holder. Moreover, the present disclosure also contemplates various manufacturing and processing techniques and materials that may be used in conjunction with fabrication of the clothing strap holder as described herein.
- In one example, a clothing strap holder includes a planar central portion having a substantially equidimensional geometry, and first and second elongate side portions disposed at opposite ends of the planar central portion. In this example, each of the first and second elongate side portions extends outwardly from the corresponding one of the opposite ends of the planar central portion, thereby defining two slots between the respective elongate side portion and the planar central portion. Also in this example, the planar central portion and the first and second elongate side portions are disposed substantially within a common plane.
- The details of one or more examples consistent with the techniques of the present disclosure are set forth in the description provided below and in the accompanying drawings. Other features, objects, and advantages of the techniques described herein will be apparent from the description and drawings, and from the claims also set forth below.

FIG. 2 is a conceptual diagram that illustrates a perspective view of the example clothing strap holder ofFIG. 1 , consistent with the techniques of this disclosure. -
FIG. 3 is a conceptual diagram that illustrates another example of a clothing strap holder that is similar to the clothing strap holder ofFIG. 1 and that includes a planar central portion having a two-dimensional (2-D) decorative “heart-shaped” geometry, consistent with the techniques of this disclosure. -
FIG. 4 is a conceptual diagram that illustrates another example of a clothing strap holder that includes a planar central portion having a 2-D multi-point “star-shaped” geometry, consistent with the techniques of this disclosure. -
FIG. 5 is a conceptual diagram that illustrates another example of a clothing strap holder that includes a planar central portion having a 2-D multi-point “crown-shaped” geometry, consistent with the techniques of this disclosure. - In general, the techniques of this disclosure are directed to a clothing strap retention device, or “holder,” that can be used by a wearer of a clothing garment, such as a strapped shirt, dress, swimsuit, brassiere, or another strapped clothing garment, to retain two or more shoulder straps, or similar straps, of the garment within close proximity to one another. For example, the clothing strap holder of the described techniques can be used to retain the straps within close proximity to one another at a particular region (e.g., at a single point, or at a series or range of points) along the length of the straps. As a result, the clothing strap holder can be used to decrease the effective length of the straps and restrict their movement, thereby providing a better, more comfortable fit of the garment to the wearer. Additionally, the clothing strap holder consistent with the techniques described herein includes a planar central portion having a substantially equidimensional geometry that may provide enhanced structural integrity, such as increased torsional support, to the holder, thereby preventing or reducing twisting, warping, or other distortion of the holder during its use. Furthermore, the clothing strap holder according to the disclosed techniques may, by virtue of including the planar central portion having the substantially equidimensional geometry, provide a surface that is suitable for one or more of printing, embossing, and attaching an adhesive label to include any combination of text and graphical content. As a result, the surface can be used in any of product marking, ornamental design, and advertisement associated with the clothing strap holder. Moreover, the present disclosure also contemplates various manufacturing and processing techniques and materials that can be used in conjunction with fabrication of the clothing strap holder as described herein.
- In this disclosure, the term “planar” refers to any component, element, member, or portion of the clothing strap holder according to the techniques described herein that is substantially two-dimensional (2-D), meaning that the component, element, member, or portion has two dimensions (e.g., a length and a width) that are each substantially larger than a third dimension (e.g., a height, or thickness) of the component, element, member, or portion. Stated another way, planar, as used herein, refers to any such component, element, member, or portion of the clothing strap holder that lies substantially in a 2-D plane and thus is 2-D in character, having a relatively larger length and width, or equivalent dimensions, compared to a height, or thickness, of the component, element, member, or portion.
- Additionally, in this disclosure, the term “equidimensional” refers to any component, element, member, or portion of the clothing strap holder according to the described techniques that includes two dimensions (e.g., a length and a width) that are substantially equal in size. Specifically, equidimensional in the context of the present disclosure refers to any such component, element, member, or portion that has one dimension, such as, e.g., a length, that is substantially equal in size to another dimension of the component, element, member, or portion, such as, e.g., a width. In general, however, in this disclosure, equidimensional refers to any such component, element, member, or portion as having a substantially non-elongate geometry, but rather one of a substantially rectangular (e.g., square) geometry, a substantially triangular geometry, a substantially circular geometry, and a substantially oval geometry, as merely some examples. Additionally, as further illustrated by the examples provided below with reference to
FIGS. 1-5 , in some examples, a substantially equidimensional planar central portion of the clothing strap holder described in this disclosure may refer to the planar central portion having one of a 2-D decorative “heart-shaped” geometry, a 2-D multi-point “star-shaped” geometry, a 2-D multi-point “crown-shaped” geometry, as well as any one of similar or equivalent geometries. -
FIG. 1 is a conceptual diagram that illustrates an example of aclothing strap holder 100, consistent with the techniques of this disclosure. As shown inFIG. 1 ,clothing strap holder 100 includes a planar central portion 102 (depicted as having a substantially equidimensional geometry, as will be described in greater detail below), and a firstelongate side portion 104A and a secondelongate side portion 104B disposed at a firstopposite end 106A and a secondopposite end 106B, respectively, of planarcentral portion 102, thereby defining or forming afirst slot 108A, asecond slot 108B, athird slot 108C, and afourth slot 108D. Specifically, firstelongate side portion 104A is disposed at firstopposite end 106A, and secondelongate side portion 104B is disposed at secondopposite end 106B.FIG. 1 further depicts afirst end portion 110A, asecond end portion 110B, athird end portion 110C, and afourth end portion 110D disposed at opposite ends of first and secondelongate side portions FIG. 1 ,clothing strap holder 100 is depicted along withclothing straps FIG. 1 ,clothing straps FIG. 1 , each ofclothing straps fourth slots 108A-108D defined or formed by first and secondelongate side portions central portion 102. In other examples,clothing straps fourth slots 110A-110D in a different manner than that shown inFIG. 1 , such as, e.g., by extending over a front, or top surface of planarcentral portion 102 and over rear, or bottom surfaces of first and secondelongate side portions clothing straps clothing strap holder 100 may be horizontally, rather than vertically oriented, in still other examples. - Notably, as illustrated by the example of
FIG. 1 , rather than including, e.g., an elongate central portion, which may require relatively less material and possibly simplify manufacturing or assembly,clothing strap holder 100 ofFIG. 1 includes planarcentral portion 102 that is substantially planar and has a substantially equidimensional geometry. One advantage of the above-described features is that planarcentral portion 102, in conjunction with first and secondelongate side portions clothing strap holder 100. For instance, because planarcentral portion 102 attaches to or joins first and secondelongate side portions central portion 102 being substantially as long as it is wide) of contact along corresponding edges and surfaces of first and secondopposite ends elongate side portions FIG. 1 ,clothing strap holder 100 is relatively more resistant to torsional forces that may be applied to first and secondelongate side portions central portion 102. For example, because of the above-described geometry of planarcentral portion 102,clothing strap holder 100 may withstand relatively greater torsional forces applied (e.g., viaclothing straps end portions 110A-110D of first and secondelongate side portions central portion 102 extending between first and secondopposite sides clothing strap holder 100 as disclosed herein may prevent or reduce the amount of twisting, warping, or other distortion that may result from the use ofclothing strap holder 100 by a wearer, thereby retaining the shape ofclothing strap holder 100 and thus keepingclothing straps clothing strap holder 100. - Another advantage of
clothing strap holder 100 consistent with the techniques of this disclosure is the availability of the above-described surface (or multiple surfaces, as described below with reference toFIG. 2 ) on planarcentral portion 102 by virtue of planarcentral portion 102 having a substantially planar and a substantially equidimensional geometry. In particular, planarcentral portion 102 may, by virtue of its geometry, provide one or two surfaces each with sufficient surface area to enable one or more of printing, embossing, and attaching an adhesive label to planarcentral portion 102. As a result,clothing strap holder 100, and, more specifically, planarcentral portion 102, may be used to include any combination of text and graphical content for use in any of product marking, ornamental design, and advertisement. Stated another way, planarcentral portion 102 ofclothing strap holder 100 may be used for purposes of markingclothing strap holder 100 with various content (e.g., information identifying one or more manufacturers, trade names, patent pending statuses or issuance notices, trademarks, copyrights, and so forth), as well as any type of other information, such as advertisements or decorative designs. Moreover, as illustrated inFIGS. 1-5 , the geometry of planarcentral portion 102 may itself serve various decorative functions withinclothing strap holder 100, in addition to the functional aspects relating to providing structural integrity and a marking surface, as already described above. - Additionally, consistent with the techniques of this disclosure,
clothing strap holder 100 ofFIG. 1 , as well as any components, elements, or portions thereof, alone or in any combination, may be implemented using any of a wide variety of suitable manufacturing and processing techniques and materials. For instance,clothing strap holder 100, including any components, elements, members, or portions thereof, may be manufactured using one or more of molding, extrusion, machining, milling, etching, and rapid prototyping techniques as applied to any kind of materials or compounds. Additionally, any components, elements, or portions ofclothing strap holder 100 may be manufactured together (e.g., using a single piece of material) or independently and be subsequently assembled using any of a wide variety of suitable assembly techniques and materials, such as any of a number of adhesives and fasteners. - As described above, in some examples,
clothing strap holder 100 ofFIG. 1 may include planarcentral portion 102 having a substantially equidimensional geometry. As previously explained, in the context of this disclosure, planarcentral portion 102 having a substantially equidimensional geometry refers to planarcentral portion 102 having one of its dimensions (e.g., a length) within a plane of planar central portion 102 (i.e., within a plane defined by relatively larger length and width of planarcentral portion 102 and orthogonal to a relatively smaller height, or “thickness,” of planar central portion 102) being approximately equal in size to another one of its dimensions (e.g., a width) also within the plane of planarcentral portion 102. In other words, according to the techniques of the present disclosure, planarcentral portion 102 having a substantially equidimensional geometry refers to planarcentral portion 102 being substantially as wide as it is long within the plane of planarcentral portion 102. - As also described above, in these examples,
clothing strap holder 100 may further include first and secondelongate side portions central portion 102, wherein each of first and secondelongate side portions fourth slots 108A-108D between the respective one of first and secondelongate side portion central portion 102. In particular, as illustrated inFIG. 1 , the two slots defined or formed by each of first and secondelongate side portions central portion 102 in this manner are located along an inner edge of the respective one of first and secondelongate side portions central portion 102 at the corresponding one of first and second opposite ends 106A, 106B, with one of the slots being located above planarcentral portion 102, and another one of the slots being located below planarcentral portion 102. - As also previously described, in these examples, planar
