Abstract
A ventilation system, particularly for garments, having a slit-type ventilation opening and a closure associated with the opening for opening/closing the opening. The invention is also related to a garment provided with one or more of such ventilation systems.
Description
- This application is based upon French Patent Application No. 02.15956, filed Dec. 12, 2002, the disclosure of which is hereby incorporated by reference thereto in its entirety and the priority of which is hereby claimed under 35 U.S.C. §119.
- 1. Field of the Invention
- The present invention relates to a ventilation system particularly for garments, such as everyday garments, sports garments, technical garments, etc., as well as to such garment which incorporates such ventilation system.
- The invention is more particularly adapted to the ventilation, and a ventilated garment, in the field of sports and outdoor garments, and specifically to garments such as sports jackets, windbreakers, winter sports jackets, as well as pants, shorts, etc.
- 2. Description of Background and Relevant Information
- Persons who are employed in various outdoor occupations or who are involved in sports or outdoor activities often wear garments that are impermeable to water or moisture or at least which are used as windbreakers.
- A substantial drawback to windbreakers or water/moisture impermeable garments is their poor ventilation.
- Indeed, because the material constituting such garments is impermeable to water, or at least to wind, it usually constitutes a barrier to the evaporation of moisture released by the body during physical exercise, such that garments worn underneath can become completely saturated with moisture, perspiration in particular.
- The breathability of such waterproof and/or windproof garments can be improved by using so-called breathable-impermeable materials, i.e., materials permeable to water vapor but not condensed water (rain). These garments are nonetheless very fragile and very expensive. In addition, their degree of breathability is limited to a given ratio for transmitting water vapor which is not always sufficient for the user, and moisture-related problems always occur.
- Another way for improving the breathability of such garments is to provide them with ventilation means, such as openings, that can be opened or closed. The drawback to this type of ventilation is in keeping the opening truly opened so as to allow the entry of air, particularly when the user is stationary.
- As a matter of fact, these openings generally are only slits, and means for expanding and for maintaining these slits wide open must be provided for obtaining a satisfactory ventilation.
- Commonly owned U.S. Pat. No. 6,339,845 provides for associating a system for expanding the opening with a slit-type ventilation system.
- In the examples described, the expanding system is an elastic device such as a generally V-shaped elastic pin, each arm of which is associated with an edge of the opening and which is compressed during closure.
- When the closure of the opening, such as a zipper, is opened, it is automatically widened under the effect of the elastic pin, thus providing the desired ventilation.
- An object of the present invention is to provide an improved ventilation system, particularly so as to simplify and reduce manufacturing and assembly costs thereof.
- This object is achieved in the ventilation system according to the invention, which includes the type having a slit-type ventilation opening and a closing arrangement associated with the opening for opening/closing the opening, particularly wherein the slit of the opening is substantially non-rectilinear.
- Preferably, the slit has a substantially oval shape. At least, the slit widens along its length between its ends. Thus, in the closed position, the material of the edges of the opening is pre-stressed due to the particular cut-out of the opening, and the latter therefore widens automatically so as to reassume its initial non-rectilinear form or contour, in this case, an oval shape, upon the opening of its closing arrangement and, thereby, returning the material of the edges to a non-stressed state.
- With a simple appropriate cut-out of the opening, the desired object is achieved very simply and at a minimal cost.
- According to the invention, therefore, an expander, as used in the above-referenced patent, can be omitted.
- The invention will be better understood and other characteristics thereof will become apparent by means of the following description, with reference to the attached schematic drawing showing, by way of non-limiting examples, certain preferred embodiments, and in which:
- FIG. 1 is a perspective view of a garment integrating a ventilation device according to the invention;
- FIG. 2 is a detailed and somewhat exploded view of an enlargement of a ventilation device before assembly;
- FIG. 3 is a view, similar in size to FIG. 2, after assembly;
- FIG. 4 is a cross-sectional view along the line IV-IV of FIG. 3;
- FIG. 5 is a view, similar to FIG. 3, in the open position;
- FIG. 6 is a view, similar to FIG. 5, of another embodiment;
- FIG. 7 is a cross-sectional view of an assembly according to an embodiment shown in FIG. 8, which embodies a so-called invisible zipper;
- FIG. 8 is a view similar to FIG. 1, but showing a garment employing a ventilation device according to the invention, using the invisible zipper of FIG. 7.
- FIG. 1 shows a garment, such as a sports jacket or a windbreaker1, having
ventilation devices - FIGS.2-5 show more specifically the construction of the
ventilation device 10 located in the area of the armholes. - As shown in FIG. 2, the
ventilation device 10 according to the invention is positioned between twoyokes front panel 11 and asleeve 12 of the garment, and it is adapted to be closed by aslide fastener 30, which is shown in the illustrated embodiment as a zipper. - The
yokes - In the area of the zone for assembling the
zipper 30, the edge of eachyoke arc edges edges zipper 30, closed or open, is assembled, for example, byseams 40, such as stitched seams, by each of thestrips edges zipper strips edges - The
yokes seam 50, or the like, on both ends of thezipper 30. Thisseam 50 can furthermore be at least partially the same as theseam 40. - Once the
zipper 30 is assembled, it exerts a traction force on each of theedges - A pre-stress is therefore exerted on each of the
yokes zipper 30 is opened, theedges ventilation device 10 will thereby offer a wide opening that is sufficient for good ventilation. - By means of cutting and stitching operations, one thus can manufacture, at a minimal cost, a ventilation device whose opening widens, i.e., whose edges are separated one from the other, automatically upon opening of the closing system, i.e., the opening of the zipper or slide fastener.
- As shown in FIGS. 1 and 4, a netting or
mesh fabric 36, or the like, i.e., an aerated material, connects theedges reference numeral 35. - FIG. 6 shows an alternative embodiment in which the opening20 is made within the fabric itself without any yoke.
- In this case, the
edges - The functioning after assembly is the same as indicated previously.
- FIGS. 7 and 8 show a particularly discreet embodiment in which the
zipper 130 is of the so-called invisible zipper-type. - In such a zipper, or other slide fastener, the
strips 134 supporting theteeth 135 are turned inwardly along the length of the zipper, such that theteeth 135 are completely hidden when thezipper 130 is closed. - In order to further perfect the invisibility of such a zipper, the
yokes hidden seam 140, such as stitching, to each of thestrips 134 of the zipper. - As a result, practically only the
edges yokes zipper 130 is closed, and only a “line”, shown in FIG. 8, indicates the presence of theventilation device 120. - In addition, in the example shown in FIG. 8, the
ventilation device 120 is arranged in the area of a comfort pin, i.e., transversely to the garment, and therefore remains among the most discreet. - The present invention is not limited to the particular embodiments which have been described hereinabove by way of non-limiting examples.
- Thus, for example, the slit could have a form other than oval, or a closing device other than a zipper could be provided without leaving the scope of the present invention.
