By having the ventilation system in each knee area of each leg, the air circulates throughout the pants helping to keep the body cooler.
Description
- This application is a continuation of and claims priority to U.S. Provisional Application No. 62/327,032 filed Apr. 25, 2016, which is herein incorporated by reference in its entirety.
- The present invention relates generally to the field of clothing or apparel, and more particularly to pants having a ventilation feature in each of the legs.
- Regular work pants provide protection from dirt and other object in the work environment, but do not allow for proper airflow in the pants in high temperature conditions. Hot temperatures in the environment combined with heat generated by a body from physical activity and exertion can lead to heat exhaustion and/or heat stroke. Shorts provide for maximum airflow but are often prohibited by many companies and may be undesirable to many individuals in the work environment. Therefore, it would be highly desirable to provide clothing, and specifically pants, trousers and jeans, with a ventilation system to allow additional air circulation and flow through the pants to keep a body cooler.
- The present invention provides pants, trousers and jeans with vents in each of the legs to allow for hot air to escape and cooler air to enter. Such ventilation system in the legs provides necessary and effective ventilation to help keep the body cooler, especially as concerns the legs and trunk of a body. The ventilation system is located in the generally in the back of each leg of the pants and preferably in the general area of the knees. By having the ventilation system in each knee area of each leg, the air circulates throughout the pants helping to keep the body cooler.
- In one embodiment, pants have a right leg and a left leg, and where the pants comprises a first vent opening on the right leg; a first flap attached to the right leg and capable of substantially covering the first vent opening; a second vent opening of the left leg; and a second flap attached to the left leg and capable of substantially covering the second vent opening.
- In another embodiment, pants have a right leg and a left leg and a backside, and where the pants comprises a first vent opening on the backside of the right leg; a first flap attached to the backside of the right leg and capable of substantially covering the first vent opening; a first mesh material attached to the backside of the right leg and that covers the first vent opening; a first attachment that holds the first flap for covering the first vent opening; a second vent opening on the backside of the left leg; a second flap attached to the backside of the left leg and capable of substantially covering the second vent opening; a second mesh material attached to the backside of the left leg and that covers the second vent opening; and a second attachment that holds the second flap for covering the second vent opening.
- In yet another embodiment, pants have a right leg and a left leg and a backside, and where the pants comprises a first vent opening on the right leg; a first flap attached to the right leg and capable of substantially covering the first vent opening; a second vent opening of the left leg; and a second flap attached to the left leg and capable of substantially covering the second vent opening, wherein the first vent opening is located on the backside of the right leg of the pants in an area of where a knee would be located, and wherein the second vent opening is located on the backside of the left leg of the pants in an area of where the other knee would be located.
- Additional features and advantages of the invention will be set forth in the description which follows, and in part will be apparent from the description, or may be learned by practice of the invention. The objectives and other advantages of the invention will be realized and attained by the structure particularly pointed out in the written description and claims hereof as well as the appended drawings. It is to be understood that both the foregoing general description and the following detailed description are exemplary and explanatory and are intended to provide further explanation of the invention as claimed and not to limit it.

FIG. 1 illustrates pants having a vent in each leg according to an embodiment of the present invention. A “vent” can also be referred to as “vent opening” or “opening”. Thepants 100 has aright leg 101, aleft leg 102 and awaist 103, and also a frontside and a backside (the backside corresponding to the rear of a body). Each leg of thepants 100 ends around the general area of the foot or ankle. Each leg of thepants 100 has a ventilation system around the general area of the knee. The ventilation system in each leg includes at least a vent opening 105, 110 that is protected by acorresponding flap flaps - As illustrated in
FIG. 1 , the vent opening 105 on theright leg 101 is located preferably around the area of the knee, although it could also be located above the area of the knee or below such area. Thevent opening 105 shown inFIG. 1 is in the “open” position, where theflap 115 is secured via asnap 125 in this embodiment to stay open. In contrast, the vent opening 110 on theleft leg 102 is shown in the “closed” position where theflap 120 covers the vent opening 110. Each of the vents or flaps can have any shape, size and color, including but not limited to rectangular, square, semi-circular and triangular, and each can be different in shape, size and color from one another for design or fashion purposes. - Each
flap pants 100 and made in the shape and size of thevent openings such vent openings - Each
flap flap FIG. 1 assnap 125, where theflap 115 is in the “open” position”) and one snap located on the exterior portion of the flap (such as shown inFIG. 1 assnap 140, whereflap 120 is in the “closed” position). Snap 125 is made to connect tosnap 145, while the snap on the opposite side offlap 115 is made to connect to the snap in the leg—similar tosnap 140 on theleft leg 102 connecting to thesnap 130 when theflap 120 is opened. - Snap 125 is either a male or female snap, and will attach to or snap into the opposite male or
female snap 135 when theflap 115 is closed. Snap 145 is preferably attached to the material ofright leg 101 above the vent opening 105 although it may attach within the vent opening 105 via a piece of material hanging down and over the vent opening 105 or any other way. - In an alternative embodiment, each
flap - Snap 125 is located on the inside or interior portion of
flap 115 that attaches to a snap that is sewn or stitched into the material of theright leg 101. This snap can be seen on theleft leg 102 assnap 130 which is placed at a location on the leg that is equal to the height of the flap (where the height is the measurement of the flap in the vertical direction, and the width is the measurement of the flap in the horizontal direction). The use of thissnap 125 attaching to or snapping to the snap on the leg, this keeps theflap 115 from fluttering or flapping around while moving. -
Mesh 135 covers the vent opening 105 and can be attached to the outside material of theright leg 101 or inside the material of theright leg 101. Alternatively,mesh 135 can be attached to the outside material of theright leg 101 and then a cover or material is stitched or sewn over the edge of the mesh to give the pants 100 a cleaner look.Mesh 135 is preferably an air permeable material that is stretchable so that it will stretch during movement. For example,mesh 135 may have a substantially open, stretchable texture, such as polyester, nylon, cotton or any combination thereof. The use of stretchable fabric is particularly desirable while engaging in physical labor or play. The stretchable material improves the flexibility and comfort of thepants 100 especially when the knees are being flexed. Themesh 135 provides enough airflow for cooling the leg of thepants 100. - Although the snaps attached to a flap and a leg are preferred, alternatively, any other type of attachment could be used as well, including but not limited to buttons, Velcro and zippers. Also, one or more snaps could be used on the each flap (when flap closed) and on each of the legs (when flap is open but secured to leg). Different embodiment could use one, two or more snaps to keep the flap closed, while only using one snap to keep the flap open and secured against the leg to prevent the flap from flapping around during walking.
-
FIGS. 2A-2D illustrate the different types of means for securing a flap over a vent. InFIG. 2A , abutton 200 could be sewn into the leg, where one or more buttons are positioned above the vent opening and one or more buttons below the vent opening. There would be one or more slit or openings in each flap for fitting the button through such slit. - As illustrated in
FIG. 2B for another embodiment,Velcro 201 is shown around the vent opening and is attached to the edge or the outside of a vent opening. Velcro would be similar lined on the interior side of a flap so that when the flap is “closed”, the Velcro on the flap aligns with theVelcro 201 around the vent opening to provide a secure closing of the flap over the vent opening. Additionally, the flap could be rolled when in the “open” position, where Velcro of the rolled flap could be secured to theVelcro 201 located at the bottom of the vent opening. - As illustrated in
FIG. 2C for another embodiment, azipper 204 could be used to open or close thesemi-circle flap 206, whereby the zipper would be unzipped to “open” the flap so that air could flow into the vent, and “closed” to prevent air from flowing into the vent. In other embodiments, different combinations of the attachments could be used, such as Velcro (for keeping the flap “closed” over the vent opening) and a snap (for keeping the flap from moving around when the vent is open). - Each flap on each leg substantially overlaps the mesh material in the vent opening. Preferably, the flap and mesh is made the same color as the color of the material used in the pants in order to reduce the visibility of the flap and mesh. However, it may be fashionable to create designer pants where the color and/or material of the flap does not match the color or material of the pants.
- Although it is preferred to place the vent opening on each leg on the backside of the pants in the general knee area, in alternative embodiments, the vent openings could be located on the sides of each of the legs of the pants such as shown in
FIG. 3 . InFIG. 3 , twovertical vents Vents vertical vents FIG. 3 could be located on the opposite side of the legs of the pants where thevents Vents vents - While the invention has been described in detail and with reference to specific embodiments thereof, it will be apparent to those skilled in the art that various changes and modifications can be made therein without departing from the spirit and scope thereof. Thus, it is intended that the present invention cover the modifications and variations of this invention provided they come within the scope of the appended claims and their equivalents.
