Description
THE TECHNICAL FIELD TO WHICH THE INVENTION BELONGS
[0001] The present invention relates to a structure for forming and
maintaining the three-dimensional shape of clothing.
DESCRIPTION OF THE PRIOR ART
[0002] Some lingerie has shape-memory wire so as to stabilize the
shape of the lingerie or to adjust the form of one's body.
Construction stabilizing or keeping shapes is known not only in the
field of lingerie but also clothing and accessory.
[0003] For example, with regard to an art described in the Japanese
Patent Laid Open Gazette 2000-314023, the clothing has a neck part
covers ears and the back of head, the neck part is inserted
shape-memory alloy wires or metal wires so as to keep the neck part
standing.
[0004] With regard to an art described in the Japanese Utility
Model 3089123, wires of shape memory alloy or metal wires are
attached to the inside of a muffler as a shape retention member.
Accordingly, the three-dimensional shape of the muffler can be
changed freely and the shape can be kept, thereby improving the
value of design.
SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION
[Problems to Be Solved by the Invention]
[0005] Especially, with regard to clothing formed from relative
soft material such as knit, it is difficult to form the
three-dimensional shape of the clothing and keep the shape while
maintaining the feeling of the material. For example, with regard
to the clothing formed from relative soft material such as knit,
the neck can be turned up or rolled, but it is difficult to keep
the turned or rolled shape because of the characteristic of the
material.
[0006] Then, the present invention suggests construction of shape
retentive clothing whose three-dimensional shape can be changed
freely and kept even if the clothing is constructed by soft
material such as knit.
[Means for Solving the Problems]
[0007] The above-mentioned problems are solved by the following
means according to the present invention.
[0008] As specified in claim 1, a member which is transformable and
maintainable its shape is attached to the clothing.
[0009] As specified in claim 2, a member which is transformable and
maintainable its shape is attached to a body, a sleeve, a cuff, a
neck or a pocket of the clothing.
[0010] As specified in claim 3, a resin wire and/or a ceramic wire
are used as the member transformable and maintainable its
shape.
[0011] As specified in claim 4, an end of the resin wire or the
ceramic wire is turned up and covered by a cylindrical member.
[Effect of the Invention]
[0012] The present invention constructed as the above brings the
following effects.
[0013] According to claim 1, the clothing can be formed
three-dimensionally and kept in the shape even if the clothing is
constructed by soft cloth which is hardly to retain its shape. When
the clothing gets out of shape once, the clothing can be formed
again easily so as to form fine state.
[0014] According to claim 2, the sleeve may be formed
three-dimensionally to be rolled up and the shape of the sleeve can
be maintained even if the clothing is constructed by soft cloth
which is hardly to retain its shape.
[0015] According to claim 3, the ceramic wire does not rust, is not
spoiled by washing, and are bendable. Furthermore, the ceramic wire
hardly becomes brittle even if the wires are bended repetitively.
Accordingly, the ceramic wire is more advantageous than metal
wire.
[0016] According to claim 4, the end of wire attached to the
clothing is prevented from piercing cloth and projecting.
THE BEST MODE OF EMBODIMENT OF THE INVENTION
[0017] Next, an embodiment of the present invention will be

[0023] FIG. 9 is a drawing of a neck to which the wire is attached.
FIG. 10 is a drawing of a pocket to which the wire is attached.
FIG. 11 is a drawing of a sleeve to which the wire is attached.
[0024] FIG. 12 is a drawing of trousers as the clothing concerning
to an embodiment of the present invention.
[0025] A shape retentive dress according to the present invention
can be made and kept its shape without spoiling the feel of cloth
constituting the dress though the cloth is soft cloth which is
difficult to keep its three-dimensional shape, such as knit.
[0026] In FIG. 1, a knit shirt 10 is shown as an example of the
shape retentive dress according to the present invention. The shirt
10 is necked. Sleeves 12 are sutured to a body 11 of the shirt 10.
A neck 13, a pocket 15 and a flap 15a are sutured to the body 11.
In addition, as shown in FIG. 3, a knit T-shirt 40 having no neck
also can be made retentive.
[0027] The shape retentive dress is not limited to a shirt, and the
present invention also can be applied to trousers or a jacket. The
construction of the shape retentive dress according to the present
invention can be applied to an accessory, such as a muffler, a
scarf or shoes, so as to make a shape retentive accessory.
[0028] A dress material constituting the dress is not limited to
knit, and another material may be used.
[0029] As shown in FIGS. 1 and 3, the shirt 10 or 40 is constructed
by striped knit.
[0030] As shown in FIG. 5, the striped design is not formed by
changing color of yarn used for weaving the cloth. The striped
design is formed three-dimensionally by suturing main cloths 17 and
sub cloths 16 which are at least two types (designs and colors) of
cloths.
[0031] Each of the sub cloths 16 whose width is slightly wider than
the width of the striped design is sutured to the reverse side of
the main cloths 17 between two main cloths 17. Ends 17a of each of
the main cloths 17 are not stitched and only cut, and are exposed
to the obverse side of the dress. Because of the characteristic of
knit, the ends 17a of the main cloth 17 curl up to the obverse
side, whereby cubic lines are formed at the lateral border lines of
the striped design.
[0032] Wires 20, which are transformable and maintainable their
shapes, are attached to suitable positions of the shirt 10 so as to
obtain shape retentivity, that is, to change the three-dimensional
shape of the dress freely and to keep the changed shape.
[0033] As shown in FIGS. 2 and 4 for example, with regard to the
necked shirt 10, the wires 20 are attached to the neck 13, a neck
hole (an opening of the neck) 14, the lower portions of the sleeves
12, the lower portion of the body 11, the edge of the pocket 15 and
the edge of the flap 15a. With regard to the T-shirt 40, the wires
20 are attached to the lower portions of the sleeves 12 and the
lower portion of the body 11.
[0034] A metal wire, a resin wire, a ceramic wire or the like can
be used as each of the wires 20. In this embodiment, ceramic wires
are used. The ceramic wires don't rust, are not spoiled by washing,
and are bendable. Furthermore, the brittleness of the ceramic wires
is hardly to be reduced even if the wires are transformed
continuously. Accordingly, the ceramic wires are more advantageous
than metal wires.
[0035] As shown in FIG. 6, both ends 20a of each of the wires 20
are turned up. The turned parts are inserted into and fixed to
resin tubes 21 respectively by hot welding. Accordingly, the ends
of wires 20 attached to the cloths constituting the dress are
prevented from piercing the cloths and projecting.
[0036] The wires 20 are attached to the reverse side of the dress
so as not to be exposed.
[0037] For example, as shown in FIG. 7, each of the wires 20 is
inserted into a pipe formed by suturing a separate cloth 19 to the
reverse side of the main cloths 17 so as to attach the wires 20 to
the dress.
[0038] With regard to this embodiment, as shown in FIG. 8, the
separate cloth 19 is attached to the reverse side of each of the
sub cloths 16 so as to form a pipe by the separate cloth 19 and the
sub cloth 16, and then the wire 20 is inserted into the pipe,
thereby attaching the wires 20 to the dress.
[0039] In addition, the wires 20 are not fixed to or weaved into
the dress. The wires are attached to the dress movably within a
small allowable range. That is because the dress is formed by
elastic cloth, such as knit. Accordingly, unnatural contraction and
creases are prevented from being generated by the expansion and
contraction of the knit at the part to which the wires 20 are
attached.
[0040] However, the attachment of the wires 20 is not limited
thereto. The wires may be attached to the dress movably within a
small allowable range by fastening some parts of the wire 20.
Alternatively, it may be constructed that the edge of the main
cloth 17 is turned up and the wire 20 is inserted into the turned
part.
[0041] In the vicinity of the neck 13 of the shirt 10, as shown in
FIG. 9(a), the wires 20 are attached to the peripheral edges of the
neck 13 and the neck hole 14. Accordingly, as shown in FIG. 9(b),
the neck 13 is kept turned up. The shirt may be formed
three-dimensionally and kept in the shape. For example, a part of
the neck 13 may be bent or the neck hole 14 may be waved.
[0042] At the pocket 15 of the shirt 10, as shown in FIG. 10(a),
the wires 20 are attached to the peripheral edges of the opening of
the pocket 15 and the flap 15a. Accordingly, as shown in FIG.
10(b), the pocket 15 may be embossed on the body 11 and formed
three-dimensionally. The flap 15a may be formed three-dimensionally
to be turned up. The shape of the pocket 15 or the flap 15a can be
maintained.
[0043] At each of the sleeves 12 of the shirt 10, as shown in FIG.
11(a), the plural wires 20 are attached to the lower portion of the
sleeve 12 passing over the longer direction of the sleeve. These
wires 20 are circular along the peripheral direction of the sleeve.
Plural wires may be attached along the peripheral direction of the
sleeve. However, it is desirable to attach a circular wire along
the shape of the sleeve. Accordingly, as shown in FIG. 11(b), the
sleeve 12 may be formed three-dimensionally to be rolled up. The
shape of the sleeve 12 can be maintained.
[0044] In addition, with regard to a pair of trousers 25 as a shape
retentive dress, as shown in FIG. 12(a), plural circular wires 20
are attached to the cuffs of the trousers 25. Accordingly, as shown
in FIG. 12(b), the trousers 25 constructed by soft cloth such as
knit may be formed three-dimensionally to be rolled up. The shape
of the trousers 25 can be maintained.
[0045] As the above mentioned, by attaching the wires 20 to the
dress, the dress can be formed three-dimensionally and kept in the
shape even if the dress is constructed by soft cloth which is
hardly to retain its shape. Furthermore, any treatment, such as
starching, is not performed on the surface of the cloth, whereby
the feeling of the cloth is not spoiled.
[0046] Moreover, the shape retentivity of the wires 20 is not
changed with the passage of time so that the three-dimensional
shape of the dress is maintained. If the dress gets out of shape
once, the wires 20 can be formed again easily so as to form fine
state without requiring any special apparatus, tool or
medicine.
[0047] In FIG. 13, a fabric (knit or the like) shirt 10 is shown as
an example of a product comprising cloth of cutout design. However,
products to which the cloth of cutout design is adopted is not
limited to shirts, trousers, jackets and another dress, and is
widely applicable to cloth products such as mufflers, scarves,
shoes and another accessories. As shown in FIG. 13, striped design
is formed on the shirt 10. As shown in FIG. 14, the striped design
of the shirt 10 is not formed by printing or changing color of yarn
of cloth but is formed by plural cutout patterns 30. The cutout
patterns 30 are formed three-dimensionally by suturing the main
cloths 17 and the sub cloths 16 which are at least two types
(designs and colors) of cloths.
[0048] Each of the sub cloths 16 whose width is slightly wider than
the width of the striped design is sutured to the reverse side of
the main cloths 17. The sub cloth 16 appears through a cut opening
32 between the main cloths 17. The ends 17a of each of the main
cloths 17, formed by forming the cut opening 32 between the main
cloths 17, are not stitched and only cut, and are exposed to the
obverse side of the cloth. The ends 17a of the main cloth 17 curl
up and appear to the obverse side, whereby cubic lines are formed
at the lateral border lines of the striped design. The curls of the
ends 17a of the main cloth 17 are artless so that the border line
between the main cloth 17 and the sub cloth 16 on the obverse side
of the cloth is not straight but waved.
[0049] The cloth material of the main cloths 17 is knit and may be
sheeting, rib stitch, purl stitch, pin tuck, Rahben stitch, racked
stitch, half cardigan rib stitch, full cardigan rib stitch, allow
stitch, Jacquard stitch, lace, intarsia, plating, napping or the
like.
[0050] In addition, the cloth material of the sub cloths 16 is not
limited to knit, and may be woven cloth or non-woven cloth. By
making the cloth material of the main cloths 17 differ from that of
the sub cloths 16, the cutout patterns 30 can be formed whose
cloths are differ from each other in not only colors and designs
but also texture.
[0051] Next, explanation will be given on the method for forming
the cutout pattern on cloth according to a flow chart in FIG.
15.
[0052] Firstly, as shown in FIG. 16(a), the sub cloth 16 is sutured
to the reverse side of the main cloth 17 (S11). By sewing the
perimeter of the cut opening 32 which will be formed on the main
cloth 17, the sub cloth 16 is sutured to the main cloth 17, whereby
stitches 31 appearing on the obverse side of the cloth 17 are
formed. A thread of the same color as the main cloth 17 may be
used. Alternatively, a thread of different color from the main
cloth 17 may be used so as to form decoration stitches 31.
[0053] In addition, in the case of providing the cutout patterns 30
on the shirt 10 shown in FIG. 13, the construction cloth of the
shirt shaped as the shirt 10 is considered as the cloth 17, and the
sub cloths 16 are sutured to the reverse side of the construction
cloth.
[0054] Next, if later-discussed fixing stitches 31a are not formed
in the cutout patterns 30 (S12), the cut opening 32 is formed on
the main cloth 17 by incising the main cloth 17 or cutting a part
of the main cloth 17 away as shown in FIG. 16(b) (S13).
[0055] At the time of forming the cut opening 32, a fixed width
(hereinafter, referred to as "curl up margin") of the main cloth 17
remains between a cut edge 17a of the main cloth 17 generated by
the cut opening 32 and the stitch 31. Namely, the part of the main
cloth 17 is cut away while leaving the curl up margin of the main
cloth 17 from the stitch 31 so as to form the cut opening 32,
whereby the stitch 31 is positioned outer from the perimeter of the
cut opening 32 (the cut edge 17a of the main cloth 17) for the curl
up margin.
[0056] The cut edge 17a of the main cloth 17 is only cut and not
treated for preventing the fray (for example, stitching or gluing).
The cut edge 17a of the main cloth 17 is shrunk (S15) so as to form
the cutout patterns 30 on the cloth.
[0057] As the above mentioned, the cut edge 17a of the main cloth
17 generated by forming the cut opening 32 on the main cloth 17 is
not stitched and only cut. Accordingly, by forming the cut opening
32 and shrinking the cut edge 17a of the main cloth 17, the part of
the main cloth 17 between the stitch 31 and the cut edge 17a (the
curl up margin of the main cloth 17) curls up to the obverse side
of the cloth as shown in FIG. 16(b). The curl of the cut edge 17a
is not processed compulsorily and is generated according to the
characteristics of the cloth so that the curl is artless, whereby
the border line between the main cloth 17 and the sub cloth 16 on
the obverse side of the cloth is not straight but waved.
[0058] Accordingly, the curl of the cut edge 17a of the main cloth
17 constitutes a decoration which makes the cutout patterns 30
individual and novel so as to make the cloth of the cutout patterns
30 loose. It is not necessary to treat the cut edge 17a for
preventing the fray, whereby number of the working processes is
reduced and the work becomes easy.
[0059] In addition, with regard to the curl up margin, it is
preferable to adjust the area of the cut opening 32 corresponding
to the cutout patterns 30. It is preferable to make the curl up
margin in the same cutout pattern 30 substantially uniform. By
making the curl up margin substantially uniform, the volume of the
curl of the cut edge 17a of the main cloth 17 becomes substantially
uniform, whereby the design becomes nice to look at.
[0060] For example, in the case of providing the cutout patterns 30
on the shirt 10 shown in FIG. 13, a straight incision is formed at
each of the parts of the main cloth 17 surrounded by the stitches
31 so as to form the cut opening 32. In the case that the width of
the stripe is large, each of the parts of the main cloth 17
surrounded by the stitches 31 is cut away while leaving the curl up
margin of the main cloth 17 from the stitch 31 so as to form the
cut opening 32.
[0061] With regard to the cutout patterns 30 formed as the above
mentioned, the main cloth 17 is adopted as a construction cloth of
a thing from which a finished product is made by providing a
decoration (in the shirt 10 shown in FIG. 13, the thing
constructing the form of the shirt). Accordingly, as shown in FIG.
17 for example, with regard to a shirt on which a picture is
printed, a striped design which divides the picture is formed at
the part of the picture of the shirt by the cutout patterns 30.
Instead of printing a part of the picture on each of the parts
between the stripes of the striped design, the picture is divided
by the cubic stripes, whereby the picture and the striped design
coexist conspicuously in the same area.
[0062] As shown in FIG. 18 for example, it is easy to form the
cutout patterns 30 passing through a seam between the sleeve and
the body of the shirt. In this case, as shown in FIG. 19(a), the
main cloth 17 is adopted as a construction cloth constructing the
form of the shirt. The sub cloth 16 is sutured to the sleeve 12 and
the body 11 continuously, and the stitch 31 is provided around the
cut opening 32 to be formed. Then, as shown in FIG. 19(b), the part
of the main cloth surrounded by the stitch 31 is cut away while
leaving the curl up margin of the main cloth 17 from the stitch 31
so as to form the cut opening 32, and the cut edge 17a is shrunk.
Accordingly, the part of the main cloth 17 between the stitch 31
and the cut edge 17a leaved as the curl up margin curls up to the
obverse side so as to form the cutout pattern 30.
[0063] In addition, the design formed by the cutout patterns 30 is
not limited to the continuous line design. As shown in FIG. 20 for
example, the cutout pattern 30 may be constructed by divided
lines.
[0064] Explanation will be given on the method for forming the
cutout patterns 30 in this case on cloth according to a flow chart
in FIG. 15. Firstly, as shown in FIG. 21(a), the sub cloth 16 is
sutured to the reverse side of the main cloth 17 (S11).
[0065] Next, as shown in FIG. 21(b), the fixing stitch 31a is
formed in each of areas surrounded by the stitches 31 (S14). In
this embodiment, the fixing stitches 31a are X-like shaped.
However, the fixing stitches 31a may be polygonal, circular or
dot-like shaped.
[0066] Finally, as shown in FIG. 21(c), the part of the main cloth
17 surrounded by the stitch 31 and the fixing stitches 31a is cut
away while leaving the curl up margin of the main cloth 17 from the
stitch 31 so as to form the cut opening 32 (S13). The cut opening
32 is formed accordingly, and then the cut edge 17a is shrunk
(S15). Accordingly, the part of the main cloth 17 between the
stitch 31 and the cut edge 17a curls up to the obverse side so as
to form the cutout pattern 30.
[0067] In addition, the design formed by the cutout patterns 30 is
not limited to the line design. As shown in FIG. 22 for example,
the cutout pattern 30 may be wedge-like cross shaped.
[0068] In this case, as shown in FIG. 23(a), the sub cloth 16 is
sutured to the reverse side of the main cloth 17, and then the
stitch 31 is provided around the cut opening 32 to be formed.
Subsequently, as shown in FIG. 23(b), the part of the main cloth 17
surrounded by the stitch 31 is cut away while leaving the curl up
margin of the main cloth 17 from the stitch 31 so as to form the
cut opening 32. Presently, the part of the main cloth 17 between
the stitch 31 and the cut edge 17a of the cut opening 32 curls up
to the obverse side so as to form the wedge-like cross shaped
cutout pattern 30. For example, the cutout pattern 30 may be
polygonal, circular, heart-like, clover or the like.
[0069] By the above-mentioned method for forming the cutout
pattern, the cutout pattern 30 with free shape can be formed easily
on cloth.
[0070] With regard to the cutout pattern 30 formed as the above,
the sub cloth 16 appears through the cut opening 32 formed on the
main cloth 17, and the cubic line is formed at the peripheral edge
of the cut opening 32 by the curl of the curl up margin remained
between the cut edge 17a of the main cloth 17 and the stitch 31.
Namely, the cutout pattern 30 is formed by the border line between
the main cloth 17 and the sub cloth 16 and the cubic line formed on
the border line. The cubic line formed on the border line is curved
and artless so that the main cloth 17 and the sub cloth 16 are felt
not to be divided straight but to be switched curvedly gradually,
whereby the design is felt looser.
[0071] Now, conventionally, with regard to a dress formed by woven
cloth such as a jean, there is well known a dress design that the
cut edge of cloth is not stitched and is exposed to the obverse of
the cloth so as to use the fraying edge as a decoration. With
regard to a dress formed by fabric such as a T-shirt, there is well
known a dress design that sutured parts in the underarm, sleeve or
the like is exposed to the obverse so as to use the rolling edge as
a decoration.
[0072] These dress designs using the edge as a decoration looks
loosely and achieve wide acceptance by the young mainly.
[0073] Conventionally, there is well known a decorative art that a
part of a cloth is cut away and another cloth is exposed through
the cut part.
[0074] For example, the Japanese Utility Model Laid Open Gazette
Hei. 5-60314 discloses a method to expose another cloth through the
opening of the cut cloth for constructing a cubic design on the
cloth. In this method, the opening for forming the cubic design is
provided on a sheet body (cloth or the like). A design chip on
which the design is provided and filled with filler so as to be
uneven cubicly is stuck on the reverse side of the opening, whereby
the design chip with three-dimensional shape appears through the
opening of the sheet body.
[0075] The Japanese Utility Model Laid Open Gazette Hei. 5-60314
expresses the effect that the edge of the opening of the sheet body
is covered by the puff of the design chip and is not exposed though
the design chip is attached to the reverse side of the sheet body,
whereby the design becomes nice to look at. Namely, the cut edge of
the cloth on the edge of the opening does not function as a
decoration and exists only as a border line between the cloths.
[0076] Accordingly, as the above mentioned, by using the method for
forming the cutout pattern comprising the process of forming the
stitch surrounding the part to be cut away by suturing the sub
cloth to the reverse side of the main cloth and the process of
cutting the main cloth surrounded by the stitch while remaining the
fixed roll up margin from the stitch, the cutout pattern with free
shape can be formed easily on cloth. With regard to the formed
cutout pattern, the sub cloth appears to the obverse side of the
cloth through the cut opening formed on the main cloth, and the
cubic line is formed at the peripheral edge of the cut opening by
the curl of the curl up margin of the main cloth. Furthermore, it
is not necessary to treat the cut edge of the main cloth for
preventing the fray, whereby number of the working processes is
reduced and the work becomes easy.
[0077] By constructing the main cloth from fabric and constructing
the sub cloth from fabric, woven cloth or non-woven cloth, the curl
up margin of the main cloth curls up so as to form the cubic line.
The cubic line formed on the border line is curved and artless. The
main cloth is construction cloth of a thing from which a finished
product is made by providing a decoration. Accordingly, the cutout
pattern can be formed which divides a picture provided on the
cloth. Furthermore, it is easy to form the continuous cutout
pattern on the sutured part of the dress or the like.
[0078] The cloth with the cutout pattern comprises the cut opening
formed on the main cloth, the stitch provided outer from the
perimeter of the cut opening for the fixed curl up margin, the sub
cloth appearing through the cut opening, and the curl of the curl
up margin. Accordingly, the curl of the cut edge of the main cloth
constitutes a decoration which makes the cutout pattern individual
and novel so as to make the cloth of the cutout pattern loose. By
constructing the main cloth from fabric and constructing the sub
cloth from fabric, woven cloth or non-woven cloth, the cubic line
formed by the curl of the remained curl up margin of the main cloth
is curved and artless, thereby being loose.
