Description
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
[0001] 1. Field of the Invention
[0002] The present invention relates to a pair of handy pants, and
particularly to a pants on which a zipper is provided to surround
each pants leg spirally downward and be away the front side of knee
part thereof.
[0003] 2. Description of Related Art
[0004] The clothes is greatly significant for us from the view
points of personal interest and symbol of social position in
addition to an indication of different civilization. Strictly
speaking, the function of clothes for covering the body has become
less important in a developed economic society since other
functions of clothes rose.
[0005] In fact, it is possible for the clothes providing special
functions in certain situations such as casual suit, sports wear,
patient suit, and etc, which may be different from the traditional
integral type and be necessary to be opened locally for the need of
these situations.
[0006] For instance, the present inventor has investigated the
patient suit and owns many granted patents. U.S. Pat. No. 5,822,802
(equivalent to Taiwan Utility Model No. 106715) is a typical
example. For the sports wear, pants for warming up body, which is
available in the market, has provided the zipper for zipping the
clothes complying with the change of temperature.
[0007] Presently, it has not been seen that a pair of pants can be
available for being partly opened or fully opened. Although the
preceding sports pants can be opened for specific purposes, there
are some disadvantages listed underneath:
[0008] (1) If a hook and loop fastener, buttons, or tying belt is
used instead of zipper, clearances may generate to result in
insufficient protection and privacy.
[0009] (2) While the zipper is used, the zipper is arranged to form
a shape of straight line, i.e., a downward strip from top at exact
front side or lateral side of the sports pants. Shortcomings
are:
[0010] (a) When the sport is played, the stretching movement of the
thigh may cause a feeling of having foreign object to result in
discomfort and being without snugness in addition to an influenced
movement.
[0011] (b) While the wearer is in a sprawl or a lateral position, a
discomfort may cause because of the thigh pressing against and
being stimulated by the zipper. Even worse, it is possible to cause
the disease of decubitus.
[0012] (c) It is not possible for the zipper to be unfastened at
any desired portion and the only way can be done is to unfasten the
zipper from an end continuously.
SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION
[0013] An object of the present invention is to provide a handy
pants, which provides a seam with a zipper surrounding the
respective pants leg in a way of spiraling downward from the pants
head away the knee part to ease the wearer to perform any specific
purpose needed.

of knee part to be compatible with the movement of wearer's legs
such that the wearer may feel without being bound and having
foreign object and move comfortably.
[0029] (3) It results in a least contact with the zipper for
postures of lying and sitting may keeping and the location of
zipper head can be kept off.
