Description

  The present invention relates to clothes, and more particularly, to a raglan sleeve bicycle garment worn by a rider when riding a bicycle.

2. Description of the Related Art Bicycle jerseys are known as bicycle riding clothes used by riders who ride bicycles, in particular, race bicycles such as road racers and mountain bikes. Many conventional bicycle jerseys are manufactured mainly in the form of raglan sleeves extending from the collar to the sleeve (see, for example, Patent Document 1). A conventional bicycle jersey has a pair of left and right sleeves that are placed so as to cover the exposed shoulders, and the front and rear bodies that are gently curved at the top of both sides so that the shoulders of the rider are exposed. And have. The sleeve part includes a cuff, a collar disposed opposite to the cuff, a pair of sleeve forming parts extending from both sides of the cuff, and a front body and a back body extending from the pair of sleeve forming parts to the collar, respectively. And a pair of stitched portions sewn to the upper part on both sides. In a pair of sleeves, the angle between the first straight line that is a substantially perpendicular bisector to the cuff and the second straight line from the collar along the apex of the shoulder of the rider toward the shoulder is 0 It is about 15 °, and the cuffs of the sleeves face downward in the side.
US Pat. No. 1,152,877

  In the conventional bicycle jersey, the cuffs of the sleeve portions face downward in the side. However, when gripping a bicycle handle, particularly a road racer drop handle or a mountain bike straight handle, the arm extends forward toward the handle, so the cuffs face the front of the body. Therefore, when the handle is held, the sleeve is wrinkled at the front side of the shoulder, adversely affecting the air resistance, and the sleeve is pulled at the back side of the shoulder, becoming cramped and uncomfortable. .

  An object of the present invention is to improve the comfort when wearing a bicycle riding garment and grasping a handle, and to reduce air resistance.

  A bicycle riding garment according to a first aspect of the present invention is a raglan sleeve garment worn by a rider when riding a bicycle, and includes a front body, a back body, and a pair of left and right sleeves. The front body is disposed on both outer sides below the first sleeve mounting portion, and a pair of left and right first sleeve mounting portions that are arranged obliquely so that the shoulders of the rider are exposed on both upper outer sides. It has a pair of left and right first front and rear mounting portions. The back body is arranged on both outer sides below the second sleeve mounting portion and a pair of left and right second sleeve mounting portions arranged to bend diagonally so that the shoulders of the rider are exposed on the upper outer sides. It has a pair of left and right second front and rear attachment parts connected to the one front and rear attachment part. The pair of left and right sleeves includes cuffs, first and second sleeve forming parts that are curved and extended from both sides of the cuffs, and a V-shaped cutting part that is cut into a V shape from the first sleeve forming part. A first stitching portion that is sewn to the first sleeve attaching portion, a second stitching portion that extends from the second sleeve forming portion and is sewn to the second sleeve attaching portion, and a collar connecting the first and second stitching portions. And is arranged so as to cover the shoulder. In this pair of sleeve portions, a first angle at which a first straight line that is a substantially perpendicular bisector to the cuff and a second straight line that runs from the collar along the apex of the shoulder of the rider toward the shoulder is intersected Is 30 ° or more and 90 ° or less.

  In this bicycle riding garment, when the front body, the back body, and the pair of sleeves are worn in a stitched state, the angle at which the first straight line and the second straight line of the pair of sleeve parts intersect is 30 degrees or more 90 degrees. The V-shaped cutting portion is provided in the first stitching portion which is a stitched portion with the front body of the sleeve portion. Here, the angle at which the first and second straight lines intersect, that is, the first angle at which the shoulder and the sleeve intersect, is set to 30 degrees or more and 90 degrees or less, so that the first angle is larger than the conventional one. Thus, the entire sleeve portion is directed to the inside, that is, the front, around the substantially vertical axis of the clothes according to the first angle. Further, by providing a V-shaped cutting portion and stitching it with the front body, the sleeve portion facing forward is directed further forward about the substantially left-right axis of the garment. As a result, the sleeve part faces the front of the garment, so even if you ride on the bicycle and hold the handle with both hands and the arm extends to the front of the garment, the back side of the shoulder is less likely to be cramped, and Wrinkles are less likely to occur at the sleeve. For this reason, the comfort when gripping the handle is improved and the air resistance is also reduced.

  The bicycle riding garment according to a second aspect of the present invention is the garment according to the first aspect, wherein the V-shaped cutting portion has a small bending portion with a radius of curvature of 3 mm or more and 20 mm or less, and a small interval from the small bending portion and both ends. It has two large curved portions that have an extended curvature radius of 200 mm or more and 600 mm or less and are curved outwardly. In this case, when both large curved portions are stitched to the curved first sleeve mounting portion, wrinkles are less likely to occur, and by providing a small curved portion, the fabric is difficult to tear even if force is applied. .

  A bicycle riding garment according to a third aspect of the present invention is the garment according to the second aspect, wherein the second angle at which the two large curved portions intersect each other is in the range of 20 to 80 degrees. In this case, since the second angle at which the two large curved portions intersect each other is in the range of 20 degrees to 80 degrees, the sleeve portion can be more easily directed forward with respect to the front body. Here, the smaller the second angle, the more the sleeve portion faces the front of the clothes. This second angle is small for bicycle clothing with a handle positioned below the saddle, such as a road racer, and for bicycle clothing with a handle approximately the same height as the saddle, such as a mountain bike. It is preferable to make it larger than in the case of a road racer.

  A bicycle riding garment according to a fourth aspect of the present invention is the garment according to any one of the first to third aspects, wherein the garment for bicycle riding is disposed between the first and second front and rear mounting portions, and both ends are sewn to the first and second front and rear mounting portions. And a pair of left and right side members. In this case, by providing a pair of left and right side members, it becomes easier to fit the clothes to the human body, an increase in air resistance due to the generation of wrinkles can be suppressed, and the front And the back body becomes more difficult to be pulled, and the comfort is further improved.

  A bicycle riding garment according to a fifth aspect of the present invention is the garment according to any one of the first to fourth aspects, wherein the right and left are arranged between the first and second sleeve forming portions and sewn to the first and second sleeve forming portions. A pair of lower sleeve members is further provided. In this case, by providing a pair of left and right lower sleeve members, it becomes easier to fit the sleeve portion to the upper arm, the increase in air resistance due to the occurrence of wrinkles can be further suppressed, and the sleeve portion is further pulled. It becomes harder and comfort is improved.

  According to the present invention, the intersection angle between the first and second straight lines, that is, the first angle at which the shoulder and the sleeve intersect, is set to be not less than 30 degrees and not more than 90 degrees. And the entire sleeve portion is directed to the inside of the garment substantially around the vertical axis, that is, forward, according to the first angle. Further, by providing a V-shaped cutting portion and stitching it with the front body, the sleeve portion facing forward is directed further forward about the substantially left-right axis of the garment. As a result, the sleeve part faces the front of the garment, so even if you ride on the bicycle and hold the handle with both hands and the arm extends to the front of the garment, the back side of the shoulder is less likely to be cramped, and Wrinkles are less likely to occur at the sleeve. For this reason, the comfort when gripping the handle is improved and the air resistance is also reduced.
