Description

  The present invention relates to clothing and a method of manufacturing the same.

  It is known that clothing (also called “tops”) covering the wearer's torso and back is used. These garments are usually worn by wearing over the head through appropriate openings defined in the perimeter of the “neck” in the anatomical shape. The clothing includes things such as T-shirts (long sleeves or short sleeves), sweaters, or fleeces. The apparel can be tailored to each individual and / or can be colored, written, and printed with various graphic or decorative motifs.

  One problem that can occur with this type of garment is precisely designed and produced so that it can be worn only in a “normal” configuration, not back-and-front (ie, the front and back are reversed). Or, this type of garment is designed as a “reversing front and back” garment that can be worn on both sides. In practice, however, when conventional garments are worn in front of the back, for example, the neck shape is not suitable as an anatomical structure and may be uncomfortable.

  When these garments are worn in a manner different from the intention of being designed and produced, the use of the garments is narrowed because they are not comfortable to wear.

  Furthermore, this means that it is possible to make personalized changes only to the front and / or back of the garment in a “normal” configuration, for example to change this kind of garment to your liking. Limit creative aspects.

  US Patent Application Publication No. 2013/0254968 is known. And there is described a garment that can be worn on both the front and back with three different panels stitched together along a portion of the periphery to define three different exterior configurations or aspects.

  U.S. Patent Application Publication No. 2007/0094762 describes a garment that has a structure that can be worn on both sides of the back and front, but is not suitable for wearing on the front and back. Have

  US Patent Application Publication No. 2014/0317823 is also known. And there is described a compression garment of the type that can be worn on both the front and back, each having a front panel and a rear panel, each having a first panel and a second panel. It is a structure provided with two overlapping layers joined together by sewing along only a part of the peripheral edge, and each layer can freely slide relative to each other. The first part of the front part has a neck shape that is different from the neck part of the second part of the rear part, so when the garment is worn in the front front, the neck part is not suitable for the anatomy So not comfortable

US Patent Application Publication No. 2007/0124870 is also known. And there is a description about the garment with a print which has a front surface and a back surface and can be worn on both sides. And the front panel ground is comprised by the 1st surface and the 2nd surface (there is a visual element different from a 1st surface) in the other side of a 1st surface.
However, this garment is unsuitable for wearing in front of the back, that is, wearing it with the front and back reversed. Because the neck shape is not suitable for the anatomy, it is not comfortable.

  Accordingly, there is a need to complete a garment and corresponding manufacturing method that can overcome at least one of the problems of the state of the art.

  Specifically, one of the objects of the present invention is to obtain a versatile garment.

  Embodiments described herein relate to a garment 10 to be worn on the upper body that covers at least the shoulders, torso and back and a method of manufacturing the same.

The garments used in the embodiments described herein are worn by putting the head through the appropriate opening, defined by the perimeter of the “neck”, and once worn, cover the torso and back Point out that it can be clothing. This type of garment may be a long-sleeved or short-sleeved T-shirt, sweater, tunic, long dress, shirt, waistcoat, poncho, and the like.
According to some embodiments of the present invention, the garment 10 can also cover the legs or at least a portion of the legs.
Make garments 10 according to the embodiments described here aesthetically tailored to the individual by adding color, writing letters, combining graphic motifs, decorations, printed images, or this kind of personalized change. Can do. Techniques that can be used to make aesthetic changes as desired or to add such prints are, for example, digital printing, direct digital printing, thermal printing with digital plotter, laser printing, ink jet printing, silk Can be screen printing, airbrush utilization, textile sublimation, manual printing, stencil technology.

  According to the present description, the garment 10 is composed of two opposing panels 12, 14 which have a lower opening 23 for wearing the garment 10 at least on the torso, shoulders and back. The lower segment 15 in one place that is not joined, and the upper opening 17 that passes through the head, the upper segment 17 that is not joined, and the side opening 25 in one or more places through which the arm passes, Except at least one or more side portions 19 that are not joined, all the peripheral portions 13 facing each other are overlapped and joined along the peripheral portion 13.

  In some embodiments, the shape and size of the two panels 12, 14 are the same, with the exception of only the location of the upper segment 17 that defines the upper opening, ie, the two panels 12, 14 are the same. Symmetric or mirrored. Each of the two panels has a molded end portion having the same or different outer shape selected from either a round shape (for example, a concave shape, a curved shape or a round shape) or a V shape. May be provided. That is, in some embodiments, the two panels 12, 14 are symmetrically equal, and in other embodiments, when the end 27 is different between the two panels 12, 14, most of the time The two panels 12, 14 are symmetrically equal except for an upper opening 21 of a shape selected from round or V-shaped (see eg FIGS. 13a and 13b).

The terms “join” and “joined”, as used in the embodiments described herein, and the like are terms such as stitching techniques using needles and threads, or sewing machines, Or it should be pointed out that it is understood as a “join” of two complementary parts using heat sealing technology.
In the following description, as an example, an embodiment in which sewing is performed to join various parts of the garment 10 will be referred to. However, when possible, it is understood that the same description can be applied to an embodiment in which joining is performed by heat sealing. The

  In some embodiments, the two panels 12, 14 of the garment 10 are each integral. That is, each is a single piece or one piece of cloth, and is not formed by joining other cloths. That is, there is no separate fabric joined (sewn) by buttons, zippers, laces or similar removable fasteners.

  In some embodiments, which can be combined with all embodiments described herein, each of the two panels 12, 14 can comprise a multi-layered fabric material. In possible implementations, for example, each panel can be in a different layer, and the entire contact surfaces are overlapped and bonded together. In these embodiments, each is a multi-layer structure of different layers, for example to produce professional clothing used in daily life or for sporting purposes, or clothing worn by a model. Two panels can possibly be made with different properties.

  In other embodiments, which can be combined with all other embodiments described herein, the two panels 12, 14 except for the embodiment where each of the two panels 12, 14 can comprise a multilayer structure. Rather, at least one, or both, consists of a single layer of fabric material (see, eg, FIGS. 3-8).

  For ease of explanation, FIG. 1 will be used to describe an embodiment of a garment 10 according to the present specification, which is comprised of two panels 12, 14, hereinafter referred to as a front panel 12 and a back panel 14. However, since the panels 12, 14 are coincident with each other, the definitions of front / rear, “normal” / inverted, and left / right do not limit the protection scope of the present invention.

  Specifically, in the following description, the terms “right” and “left” refer to the right side and the left side of FIG. 1, respectively.

  The front panel 12 and the back panel 14 coincide with each other. That is, the front panel 12 and the rear panel 14 are molded or cut so that the front panel / the rear panel are symmetrical with each other and are further symmetrical with each other.

  In a possible implementation, the front panel 12 and the back panel 14 each have an end of the same shape as the upper segment 17 that is shaped to define the portion of the garment 10 surrounding the wearer's neck in the unjoined upper segment 17. 27 can be provided. In practice, the end 27 thus shaped defines the periphery of the upper opening 21 through which the head passes. For example, in some embodiments, the molded ends 27 of the front panel 12 and the back panel 14 may be concave or have a generally recessed profile to define the neck 16 (eg, (See FIGS. 1, 10 and 11). The neck 16 can be front / rear and internally / externally symmetric or of a different shape. Specifically, in contemplated implementations, for example, the neck 16 may be circular, or a high neck, a V neck, or any other shape. For example, the round neck can be of the normal type (round neck) or it can be a deeper round neckline (scoop neck). In other embodiments, the molded end portions 27 of the front panel 12 and the back panel 14 can be molded into a slightly emphasized protruding profile for a high neck 31. And it can be worn as it is, and can be rolled up or drooped loosely.

According to a possible embodiment described with reference to FIGS. 13 a and 13 b, the front panel 12 and the back panel 14 can be symmetrical, except for the upper segment 17 which becomes the upper opening 21. That is, the two panels 12 and 14 can be partially asymmetric at the upper segment 17 that becomes the upper opening 21.
(The two panels may be provided with molded end portions 27 each having the same or different outer shape selected from either a round shape or a V shape.)
For example, the end portion 27 of the front panel 12 is concavely formed to be the round neck 16, while the end portion 27 of the back panel 14 is V-shaped because it is V-shaped. In these embodiments, the definition of round neck means round neck or scooped neck. For example, the embodiment described with respect to FIGS. 13a and 13b can be combined with an embodiment in which each of the two panels 12, 14 consists of a layer of fabric material.

  As described above, the shape of the front panel 12 is the same as the shape of the back panel 14. However, you can use different fabrics on the front panel 12, write color prints, graphic motifs, letters, add illustrations and decorations, print them, and make any changes you like. Changes can be combined to be different from the back panel 14.

  According to the present specification, in order to obtain a tube structure 44 that can be worn by a person, specifically, the front panel 12 and the back panel 14 are arranged along the peripheral edge portion 13, in particular, the left side seam 36 and the right side seam 38. The upper part is joined by a left shoulder seam 20 and a right shoulder seam 22.

  In the portion between the left shoulder seam 20 and the right shoulder seam 22, the front panel 12 and the back panel 14 are not joined together or are not stitched together, so the left shoulder seam 20 and the right shoulder seam 22 Are not connected to each other. The portion between them is the upper segment 17 that defines the upper opening 21. Thus, a molded end 27 can be created between the left shoulder seam 20 and the right shoulder seam 22. The left shoulder seam 20 and the right shoulder seam 22 can be defined on both sides by the neck 16 (FIGS. 1, 10 and 11) or the high neck 31 (FIG. 12).

  Similarly, a person wears clothing in the lower segment 15 of the front panel 12 and the back panel 14 where the front panel 12 and the back panel 14 are not joined together or not sewn together. There is a lower end or bottom 40, 46 without seams or other types of joints.

  According to some embodiments, at least one of the left seam 36 or right seam 38 joining the front panel 12 to the back panel 14 laterally along the peripheral edge 13 is an inner seam, and at least One is the outer seam.

  The expression “inner seam” or generally “inner joint” as used in the embodiments described herein can be a joint where the ends to be stitched together do not protrude outward, a seam, or a heat seal, with the ends inward. Since it is folded, the end cannot be seen from the outside. However, the expression "outer seam" or generally "outer joint" as used in the embodiments described herein can be a joint with stitched ends projecting outward, a seam, or a heat seal and extends outward. So it must be pointed out here that the end is visible from the outside.

  In some embodiments, which can be combined with all the embodiments described herein, the outer seam (ie the one where the end to be stitched can be seen from the outside) can be overlaid and Prevent the edges from being worn away.

  In some embodiments, which can be combined with all embodiments described herein, at least one of the left shoulder seam 20 or right shoulder seam 22 is an inner seam, and at least the other is an outer seam. It is.

  Specifically, the left shoulder seam 20 and the right shoulder seam 22 have the same type of seam (inside or outside) as at the left side seam 36 and right side seam 38, respectively. As a result, the two sides (left or right) of the garment 10 when in the “normal” state, when it is turned over, and even when the front and back sides are turned One of them all has an outer type seam, and the other side (right or left) each has an inner type seam.

  In this way, the garment 10 has not only the symmetry of the front / rear surface and the inside / outside, but also the front / back surface and the inside / outside specularity with respect to the seam. For example, in a “normal” state or in an inverted state, in other embodiments, garment seams (specifically, left shoulder seam 20 and right shoulder seam 22, and each of left and right seams 36 and 38). It is understood that can be an inner type or all can be an outer type. Thus, the form of seams or other joints (eg, heat seal) can provide not only the left / right symmetry of the garment 10, but also the symmetry between the upper part and its lower part.

  According to another embodiment, the left shoulder seam 20 and the right shoulder seam 22, the left armhole seam 32 and the right armhole seam 34, and the left seam 36 and the right seam 38 are alternately partly outer seams. And also some can be provided with inner seams.

  According to yet another embodiment, left shoulder seam 20 and right shoulder seam 22, left armhole seam 32 and right armhole seam 34 may be inner seams. However, each left-hand seam 36 and right-hand seam 38 can also be outer seams, and vice versa.

  FIG. 2 is used to describe an embodiment in which the front panel 12 includes an outer surface 12a and an inner surface 12b, and the back panel 14 includes an outer surface 14a and an inner surface 14b. Also, specifically, FIG. 2 is used to describe possible patterns when the garment 10 is worn according to some embodiments described herein. The garment 10 can be used without changing whether the garment 10 is rotated 180 degrees around the central axis X of the garment 10 in FIG. 2 (arrow R) or turned over (arrow I / E), and always With the same adapted form, it maintains the same durability and comfort when worn. In this particular case, for example, in a “normal” or flipped state, or in front of the back, the garment 10 may comprise a side having all inner seams and a side having all outer seams.

In this way, the garment 10 can be worn in four different ways.
In the first pattern, the outer surface 12a of the front panel 12 is used as the front surface of the garment 10. In the second pattern, the outer surface 14a of the rear panel 14 is used as the front surface (centering on the central axis X) (This pattern is obtained by rotating 10 through 180 degrees (arrow R))
A third pattern is achieved by rotating the garment 10 from the inside / outside (resulting in the use of the inner surface 14b of the back panel 14 as the front of the garment 10).
The fourth pattern starts from the third pattern and rotates the garment 10 by 180 degrees (arrow R) about the central axis X (as a result, the inner surface 12b of the front panel 12 can be used as the front of the garment 10). )

  The front panel 12 (outer side 12a and inner side 12b) and back panel 14 (outer side 14a and inner side 14b) can be printed / colored / decorated and / or used with different types of fabrics 10 can be changed for each person in various ways. Specifically, thanks to symmetry and unique features in the size / shape of the front panel 12 and the back panel 14, at that time and in all usage conditions (front / rear and “normal” / inverted) The outer surface 12a modified for at least one individual (for example, a different print and / or color than the outer surface 14a, and the inner surface 12b modified for the individual (for example, at least one inner surface 14b and the outer surface). The garment 10 may be provided with a different print and / or color than at least one of the side surfaces 12a, 14a.

  Thus, according to the present specification, the surfaces 12a, 12b, 14a, 14b can be printed and / or colored and / or made of different types of fabrics, each different from the others. The garment 10 can appear different in all possible wear directions / conditions (front / rear and “normal” / inside-down) in terms of personal preference changes.

For example, the garment 10 may not include a sleeve, according to some embodiments, which are described, for example, using FIG. 10 and may be combined with all the embodiments described herein.
In this case, since the garment 10 can be provided with the side opening 25 near the shoulder, the arm can be passed. And, for example, it may be like underwear or a waistcoat, or it may be like a poncho with low side openings 25 or without side openings 25.

  For example, according to other embodiments described with reference to FIGS. 1, 11 and 12 and which may be combined with all embodiments described herein, the garment 10 includes a left sleeve 24 and a right sleeve 26. Can be provided. The left sleeve 24 and the right sleeve 26 can be short sleeves (see FIG. 1) or long sleeves, for example up to the wrist, or an average length between the shoulder and wrist (see, eg, FIGS. 11 and 12). ).

  The left sleeve 24 and the right sleeve 26 can be joined to the tube structure 44 formed by joining the front panel 12 and the back panel 14 with the left armhole seam 32 and the right armhole seam 34. According to an exemplary embodiment, at least one of the left and right arm seams 32 or 34 is an inner seam, and as described above, at least the other is an outer seam.

  For example, referring to the embodiment described using FIG. 2 as an example, left and right seam seams 32 and 34 include the same inner or outer type seams as left seam 36 and right seam 38, respectively. Can do. As a result, in a possible implementation, one side on both sides (left or right) is all provided with an outer type seam and the other side is provided with an inner type seam.

  FIG. 3 is used to describe the right sleeve seam 34 that joins the right sleeve 26 to the front panel 12 and the back panel 14 in detail. In this embodiment, the right arm seam 34 can be of the outer type and the end is visible from the outside.

  FIG. 4 is used to describe in detail the right armhole seam 34 that joins the right sleeve 26 to the right shoulder seam 22 and the front panel 12 and the back panel 14. For example, the right armhole seam 34 may be an outer type.

  In a possible embodiment that does not limit the scope of protection of the present invention, the upper segment 17, and therefore the end 27 shaped to be, for example, the neck 16 or the high neck 31, the left sleeve 24, the right sleeve 26, and the lower portion. The segment 15 and the corresponding bottom 40, 46 can have a machined hem. From now on, the expression “hem” or “processed hem” is used in garments and linen articles, along the edges of one or more edges, to fold the fabric material slightly for reinforcement or decoration, and appropriate stitching. It means a work place to be fixed with (for example, an invisible stitch) or a finished fabric added for other purposes along the edge of clothing.

  In some embodiments, both when the garment 10 has a sleeve (FIGS. 1, 11 and 12) and when there is no sleeve (FIG. 10), the side of The edge of the part opening 25 can be sewn.

  For example, in some embodiments, the left sleeve 24 and the right sleeve 26 can comprise a hem formed by an edge 28 of the left sleeve 24 and an edge 30 of the right sleeve 26, respectively, eg, both are left sleeves. 24 and the right sleeve 26 are made from the same type of fabric.

  The hems of the left sleeve 24 and the right sleeve 26 can be obtained, for example, by folding and overlapping the edge 28 and the edge 30 at the end of the sleeve cut. As a result, one end is outside and the other end is inside the sleeve, and the parts are joined together by joining.

  The neck hem edge 18 may comprise at least two separate flaps 18a and 18b (initially separated from the front panel 12 and the back panel 14), the neck hem edge. At 18 the edge of the molded end 27 (which can define the neck 16 or the high neck 31) is sewn. In one embodiment, the fabrics of the two separate fabrics 18a and 18b may be the same as selected for the front panel 12 and the back panel 14, or may be different.

  Specifically, in this particular case, the separate fabrics 18a and 18b at the neck hem edge 18 of the molded end 27 can be sewn to the corresponding fabric panels 12, 14 respectively, and The cut edges of the cloths 18a and 18b can be seen from both the inside and outside, and thus the garment 10 is symmetrical.

  In a possible implementation, the edges of the bottom hem made of at least two separate fabrics 42a and 42b (which are initially separated from the front panel 12 and the back panel 14) are also sewn and the edges of the bottoms 40 and 46 are sewn. It can also be provided as well. In one embodiment, the fabrics of the separate fabrics 42a and 42b may be the same as or different from those selected for the front panel 12 and the back panel 14, respectively.

  Details of the seam for making the neck hem edge 18 (FIGS. 5 and 6) of the molded end 27 and the bottom hem edge 42 of the bottom 40, 46 in the embodiment according to the present specification (FIG. 7) 5 to 7 will be used for explanation.

  Specifically, referring to FIG. 5, it can be seen that the seam between the separate fabrics 18a and 18b at the edge 18 of the neck hem on the left side is of the outer type, but referring to FIG. It can be seen that the seam between the separate fabrics 18a and 18b at the edge portion 18 is of the inner type.

  In contrast, referring to FIG. 7, it can be seen that the separate fabrics 42a and 42b can be sewn to the corresponding fabrics of the panels 12 and 14, respectively, and the cuts of the separate fabrics 42a and 42b are visible from both the inside and outside, And the clothing 10 becomes symmetrical.

  8 is used to describe an embodiment that can be combined with all the embodiments described herein, where the seam between the separate fabrics 42a and 42b of the bottom hem edge 42 on the left side can be of the inner type. On the other hand, in the embodiment described with reference to FIG. 9, the seam between the separate fabrics 42 a and 42 b of the edge portion 42 of the bottom hem on the right side can be an outer type.

  When turning the garment 10 upside down or vice versa, to increase the symmetry of the garment 10, one seam at the bottom hem edge 42 will always remain inside, but the opposite seam will always be on the outside. It remains.

  The embodiments described herein are also related to a method for making the garment 10. With respect to the garment 10 which is formed of two panels 12, 14 of different fabrics and / or is adapted to an individual in various ways, the method according to the invention will now be described as a non-limiting example. To do. Also described is a garment 10 in which the two panels 12 and 14 are the same fabric and / or are adapted to the individual in various ways.

According to one embodiment, a method for making a garment 10 provides:
-Preparing only two panels 12, 14 with a peripheral edge 13 so that the garment consists of said two panels;
The upper unsewed part, which is a lower segment 15 which is not joined, which is the lower opening 23 for wearing clothing at least on the torso, shoulders and back, and the upper opening 21 for passing the head through; It becomes the segment 17 and one or more side openings 25 for passing the arms,
Joining two overlapping panels 12 and 14 along all peripheral edges 13 at least except at one or more side 19 portions that are not joined;
-The two panels 12 and 14 having the same shape and size were each selected from either a round shape or a V shape when only the location of the upper segment 17 serving as the upper opening 21 was selectively removed. It may be provided with a molded end 27 having the same or different outer shape.

  According to some embodiments, joining can be done by stitching or heat sealing.
