BREVE DESCRIPCIÓN DE LA PATENTE DE INVENCIÓNBRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE PATENT OF INVENTION
La presente invención es un gran avance en el sector de la confección, en especial por lo que respecta a prendas deportivas.The present invention is a breakthrough in the clothing sector, especially as regards sportswear.
En la actualidad, en aquellos deportes en donde se juega contra el cronómetro, la reducción de una sola centésima de segundo puede ser la diferencia entre el éxito y el fracaso.At present, in those sports where the timer is played, the reduction of a single hundredth of a second can be the difference between success and failure.
Así, la vestimenta de los deportistas y los instrumentos y herramientas que utilizan también van evolucionando con el tiempo, fabricándose en nuevos materiales y con formas más aerodinámicas y ligeras, para obtener mejores registros.Thus, the clothing of the athletes and the instruments and tools they use also evolve over time, being manufactured in new materials and with more aerodynamic and lightweight shapes, to obtain better records.
Por ello en la natación se ha ido evolucionando tratando de conseguir el menor rozamiento posible entre el cuerpo humano y el agua de la piscina. En un primer momento se cubrió el pelo por medio de gorros que evitaban el rozamiento de este. Posteriormente, los hombres se depilaron el cuerpo para evitar dicho rozamiento, y últimamente también se afeitaban el cabello porque el gorro suponía un rozamiento mayor que el pelo al cero.For this reason, swimming has evolved trying to achieve the least possible friction between the human body and the pool water. At first the hair was covered by means of caps that avoided the friction of this one. Subsequently, the men shaved the body to avoid such friction, and lately they also shaved their hair because the cap was a greater friction than the hair at zero.
De unos años a esta parte se han empezado a evolucionar una serie de maillots de baño tratando de buscar el menor rozamiento posible y la mayor impulsión, tal y como anteriormente ya se ha señalado en la Patente Europea n° 1110464.From a few years to this part they have begun to evolve a series of bath jerseys trying to look for the least possible friction and the greatest drive, as previously indicated in European Patent No. 1110464.
El inventor para desarrollar la presente invención ha realizado numerosas pruebas para observar qué tejido podría ser el que crease un menor rozamiento - ante cualquier fluido.The inventor to develop the present invention has performed numerous tests to see which tissue could be the one that created the least friction - against any fluid.
Así, ha podido constatar que ante un tejido de punto, como el de la figura 14, con mucha suerte, se consigue que un 45% de las fibras estén a favor en el mejor de los casos, cuando el .tejido entra en contacto con un fluido, tal y como señalan las líneas de fluido. Solamente proviniendo de un fluido que venga en diagonal se consigue el mínimo rozamiento del tejido con el fluido en cuestión.Thus, he has been able to verify that before a knitted fabric, like the one in figure 14, with great luck, 45% of the fibers are in favor in the best case, when the fabric comes into contact with a fluid, as indicated by the fluid lines. Only from a fluid that comes diagonally, the minimum friction of the tissue with the fluid in question is achieved.
Después de muchas pruebas y tests se llegó a la conclusión de que el tejido a la plana o tafetán (figura 15) es el que consigue que en el peor de los casos se consigue que un 45% de las fibras estén a favor, es decir en el peor de los casos consiguen los mejores resultados del tejido de punto. En la mayoría de los casos, cuando el fluido venga desde arriba, abajo o laterales, siempre se conseguirá que el 50% de las fibras estén a favor, por lo que en comparación con el resto de los tejidos utilizados resulta ser el mejor de todos .After many tests and tests it was concluded that the flat tissue or taffeta (figure 15) is the one that achieves that in the worst case it is possible that 45% of the fibers are in favor, that is to say in the worst case they get the best knitting results. In most cases, when the fluid comes from above, below or laterally, 50% of the fibers will always be in favor, so in comparison to the rest of the tissues used it turns out to be the best of all .
Al propio tiempo, es preferible que el bañador esté formado por un tejido, ya que el deportista precisa que la transpiración para evitar el efecto "cocción" de la piel y los consiguientes escozores y quemazones en la misma. Los tejidos asimismo tienen el inconveniente de que en el caso de que el fluido sea un líquido, absorben dicho líquido y aumentan de peso el tejido. Por ello el solicitante ha resuelto el añadir al tejido a la plana o tafetán un hidrorepelente, que deja entrar el agua y le permite el contacto con la piel del usuario, y la transpiración de la misma, pero a la vez que no se empape de dicho líquido y que por tanto no incremente el peso del tejido.At the same time, it is preferable that the swimsuit is formed by a fabric, since the athlete needs the perspiration to avoid the “cooking” effect of the skin and the consequent stinging and burning in it. The tissues also have the disadvantage that in the case that the fluid is a liquid, they absorb said liquid and increase the weight of the tissue. For this reason, the applicant has resolved to add a water repellent to the fabric to the flat or taffeta, which allows the water to enter and allows contact with the user's skin, and the perspiration of the same, but at the same time that it is not soaked said liquid and therefore does not increase the weight of the tissue.
Además el tejido al repeler el agua, permite que el referido tejido siga igual de fino y delgado que en el momento en que no estaba en contacto con el' fluido, y a la vez se consigue que el tejido se deslice mucho mejor por el referido fluido.In addition the tissue to the repelling water, allows the tissue concerned remains the same thin and thinner than when he was not in contact with the 'fluid and simultaneously ensures that the tissue is much slide better by the fluid referred .
El tejido a la plana o tafetán debe ser bielástico, es decir, se trata de que la compresión siempre sea la misma en ambos sentidos y que las fibras elásticas exteriores vayan siempre en la dirección del fluido.The plain or taffeta fabric must be bielastic, that is, it is that the compression is always the same in both directions and that the outer elastic fibers always go in the direction of the fluid.
Al propio tiempo se ha establecido un fruncido en la zona de la espalda de tal forma que permite que dicho tejido se adapte al contorno del deportista, arrapándose a la figura de éste y evitando el rozamiento .At the same time a purse has been established in the back area in such a way that it allows said tissue to adapt to the contour of the athlete, crawling to the figure of the athlete and avoiding friction.
En las piernas y brazos se ha pensado en la utilización de una nesga en un material más elástico que el propio tejido principal, que permite agrandar los camales, para facilitar el vestido y desvestido de la prenda de deporte en cuestión.In the legs and arms it has been thought of the use of a denim in a more elastic material than the main fabric itself, which makes it possible to enlarge the beds, to facilitate the dress and undressing of the sportswear in question.
En las zonas púdicas se ha unido un forro poroso antitransparente, de tal modo que permita la transpiración de la piel y al propio tiempo cumple la misión de evitar que transparente el tejido.In porous areas a porous anti-transparent lining has been joined, in such a way that it allows the perspiration of the skin and at the same time fulfills the mission of preventing transparent tissue.
También, especialmente en el área de los muslos y/o las pantorrillas se ha dispuesto una película de un poliuretano microporoso, unida al señalado tejido por medio de -un adhesivo, con la forma anatómica del músculo o músculos que comprime/n.Also, especially in the area of the thighs and / or calves, a film of a microporous polyurethane, attached to the indicated fabric by Adhesive medium, with the anatomical shape of the muscle or muscles that compresses / n.
Se ha previsto la incorporación en el tejido en cuestión, aunque bien podría adaptarse a cualquier otro tipo de tejido, de al menos un área de impulsión consistente en una, serie de trazos sobresalientes en media luna.The incorporation into the fabric in question is planned, although it could be adapted to any other type of fabric, with at least one drive area consisting of a series of outstanding half-moon strokes.
El inventor ha observado la colocación de las escamas en los peces y cómo éstas ' favorecen el deslizamiento del mismo por el fluido. El pez a través del movimiento sinusoidal o en slalom junto con sus aletas y agallas consigue desplazarse y adquirir la velocidad deseada. El hombre no puede realizar el movimiento sinusoidal o en slalom de su cuerpo, por lo que debe provocar el efecto contrario para provocar la acción-reacción por medio de las turbulencias. De ahí que se pensase que las escamas dispuestas en orden inverso y vaciadas podían llegar a provocar la acción- reacción buscada y crear suficiente turbulencia para aumentar la velocidad del nadador.The inventor has observed placing on fish scales and how they 'favor slip it by the fluid. The fish through sinusoidal movement or slalom along with its fins and gills manages to move and acquire the desired speed. The man cannot perform the sinusoidal or slalom movement of his body, so he must cause the opposite effect to cause the action-reaction by means of turbulence. Hence, it was thought that the scales arranged in reverse order and emptied could cause the desired reaction-action and create enough turbulence to increase the swimmer's speed.
Dichas medias lunas están orientadas convexamente respecto a la dirección de avance del nadador/a, de tal modo que frenan la marcha del fluido sobre el que la prenda se desliza. Ello provoca la creación de unas turbulencias que reaccionan en el sentido de avance de la marcha del nadador haciéndole aumentar la velocidad del mismo.Said half moons are convexly oriented with respect to the swimmer's direction of travel, so that they slow down the flow of the fluid on which the garment slides. This causes the creation of turbulence that reacts in the direction of the swimmer's progress, increasing his speed.
Por todo ello se ha obtenido una prenda muy cómoda y práctica y muy poco resistente a los elementos (agua o aire) contra los que luche el deportista.For all this, a very comfortable and practical garment has been obtained and very little resistant to the elements (water or air) against which the athlete fights.
