VERTICAL WAIST BELT
Technical Field
The present invention relates to a vertical position limiting device,
particularly to a vertical
waist belt used on the bottoms.
Background
Pants are the main bottoms worn on the lower body of people. The styles of
pants that we
can see now are formed after the continuous evolution from ancient times to
the present.
However, it is apparent that almost all pants are generally industrialized
products. The
related operations in the patternmaking process are performed based on the
data from the
standard database, while the physical proportion of each consumer is
completely different. In
this situation, the products from mass production would inevitably cause
problems such as
uncomfortable and unaesthetic wearing experiences etc. in a wide application.
Nowadays, pants are usually provided with a lateral adjusting device, such as
an elastic
band, a waist belt etc. arranged at the position of pant waist line,
especially for pants for special
industries, and the adaptability of the pants is greatly improved due to the
adjusting function
of the lateral adjusting device. Further, for example, an adjusting mode of
setting a zipper at
the bottom of the pant legs and an adjusting mode of setting an elastic band
at the bottom of
the pant legs are used to realize a lateral adjustment of the bottom of the
pant legs, so as to
further increase the adaptability of the pants.
Summary of the Invention
The technical problem to be solved by the present invention is to provide a
vertical waist
belt having a simple structure.
In order to solve the above-mentioned technical problem, the present invention
provides
a vertical waist belt. A vertical position limiting device is arranged at any
position above a
crotch part of a pair of pants. The vertical position limiting device includes
a belt, two ends of

Detailed Description of the Invention
Embodiment I
Figure 1 shows a vertical waist belt.
Generally, the existing pants are laterally adjusted, and there are lot of
customized pants,
the patterns of which cannot fit every person. However, the comfort level of
crotch area will
directly affect the overall wearing comfort level of the pants. The present
invention provides a
vertical waist belt, which is a device for vertical adjustment. The position
of the crotch is
vertically adjusted through the device. On one hand, the overall comfort level
of the mass-
produced pants can be increased; and on the other hand, an excellent hip-
lifting effect can be
obtained, and the pattern design process in the pant design can be simplified,
so that the
production costs of pattern can be reduced.
For the vertical waist belt of the present invention, a vertical position
limiting device is
arranged at any position above the crotch part of a pair of pants. The
vertical position limiting
device includes a belt. Two ends of the belt are respectively fixed at the
front side and the back
side of the pair of pants. Specifically, the vertical position limiting device
includes the
following forms.
As shown in Figure 1 and Figure 2, the vertical waist belt at the front side
includes a left
line and a right line. The upper ends of the left line and the right line of
the vertical waist belt
at the front side are respectively fixed at a front waistline of the pair of
pants. The vertical waist
belt at the back side includes a left line and a right line. The upper ends of
the left line and the
4
CA 2986660 2017-11-24

right line of the vertical waist belt at the back side are respectively fixed
at a back waistline of
the pair of pants. The left line and right line of the vertical waist belt at
the front side, and the
left line and right line of the vertical waist belt at the back side are
respectively connected to
each other at a position below the crotch part of the pair of pants.
As shown in Figure 3 and Figure 4, the vertical waist belt at the front side
includes a left
line and a right line. The upper ends of the left line and the right line of
the vertical waist belt
at the front side are respectively fixed on a front waistline of the pair of
pants. A connecting
line is arranged between the left line and the right line. The vertical waist
belt at the back side
is fixed at a waistline position of the pair of pants. The left line and the
right line and the vertical
waist belt at the back side are respectively connected to each other at a
position below a crotch
part of the pair of pants.
As shown in Figure 5 and Figure 6, the vertical waist belt at the front side
and the vertical
waist belt at the back side are formed by a zipper. The vertical waist belt at
the front side is
fixed at the front waistline of the pair of pants. A left part of the zipper
of the vertical waist belt
at the back side is fixed at a right end of a back waistline of the pair of
pants, and a right part
of the zipper of the vertical waist belt at the back side is fixed at a left
end of the back waistline
of the pair of pants.
As shown in Figure 7 and Figure 8, the vertical waist belt at the front side
is fixed at the
front waistline of the pair of pants. The vertical waist belt at the back side
is fixed at the back
waistline of the pair of pants. The vertical waist belt at the front side and
the vertical waist belt
at the back side are connected to each other at a position below the crotch
part of the pair of
pants. The vertical waist belt at the front side and the vertical waist belt
at the back side are
connected to each other through a connecting mechanism. The connecting
mechanism includes
a button, a hoop & loop fastener and a zipper.
As shown in Figure 9 and Figure 10, the vertical waist belt at the front side
is divided into
a left line and a right line. The upper ends of the left line and the right
line are respectively
fixed at the front waistline of the pair of pants. The vertical waist belt at
the back side is fixed
at the back waistline of the pair of pants. The left line and the right line
and the vertical waist
CA 2986660 2017-11-24

belt at the back side are respectively connected to each other at a position
below the crotch part
of the pair of pants.
As shown in Figure 11 and Figure 12, the vertical waist belt at the front side
is fixed at
the crotch part of the pair of pants. The vertical waist belt at the back side
is fixed at the
waistline position of the pair of pants. The vertical waist belt at the front
side and the vertical
waist belt at the back side are connected to each other at a position below
the crotch part of the
pair of pants.
In practice, the vertical waist belt of the present invention can adjust the
vertical size of
the crotch portion of the pair of pants. Since the physical sizes of different
people cannot be
exactly the same, hence, when the pair of pants are being cut, the pair of
pants need to be cut
with a corresponding size according to respective height proportion of each
person. Instead,
when the vertical waist belt device of the present invention is used, the
adjustments can be
made according to the practical needs of each person. The cooperation between
the vertical
waist belt and the lateral belt makes it possible to realize the cutting with
a same size during
the industrialized production of pants, so that the patternmaking costs in the
production process
of pants can be reduced.
Further, upon the adjustment of the vertical waist belt, the positions of the
back ends of
the bottoms of the pant legs can be effectively lifted by a certain distance.
During the use of
the pants, the abrasion of the back ends of the bottoms of the pant legs is
most serious. The
abrasion of the back ends of the bottoms of the pant legs is significantly
reduced through the
method of the present invention. By contrast, in the prior art, for example,
3D ARC jeans
launched by G-STAR enable the back part of the pants to be lifted by a certain
distance when
the pants are worn, through the cutting of the cloth material, so that the
abrasion of the back
part of the pants can be reduced. However, since the 3D cutting process is
complicated, and
multiple pieces of shell fabrics are required for splicing, the manufacturing
cost is relatively
high. The function can be realized merely by the vertical waist belt in the
present invention,
and there is no impact on the production cost of the pants.
Finally, it should also be noted that the above-mentioned is only one specific
embodiment

CA 2986660 2017-11-24

of the present invention. Apparently, the present invention is not limited to
the above
embodiment, and there are many possible variations. All variations that can be
directly derived
from or associated with the present invention by persons of ordinary skill in
the art should fall
in the protection scope of the present invention.
