Abstract
A high-breathability lace-type elastic webbing consisting of a plurality of elastic webbing sections and connecting threads sewn between the elastic webbing sections. The elastic webbing sections can be of equal width or of mutually different widths. Stitch sections of the non-elastic connecting threads sewn between each pair of the elastic webbing sections are completely exposed on the surface of the elastic webbing sections, thereby adding an aesthetic appeal to the outward appearance of the elastic webbing similar to serrated edging of lace.
Description
- (a) Field of the Invention
- The present invention relates to a structural design of a new lace-type elastic webbing that has high-breathability and aesthetic appeal, and more particularly to an elastic webbing that not only has elastic stretchability, moreover, attractiveness of the elastic webbing renders an aesthetic touch to a lace-like covering.
- (b) Description of the Prior Art
- So-called conventional band-type elastic webbings are fabricated using mutual interlacing of threads, and a specified number of elastic threads are included during the thread interlacing process to form the banding elastic webbings, which are combined to fabricate headbands or caps. A female can use the elastic webbing to bind her hair when taking part in intense sports, thereby preventing the hair from becoming disorderly from swaying of the head. Moreover, the elastic webbing can be stitched to a sweatband area of a cap, thereby providing functionality to absorb sweat from the forehead of the wearer.
- However, because the elastic material used in fabricating the conventional elastic webbing is rubber-based that lacks breathability, thus, breathable elastic webbings are now known, such as that disclosed in prior U.S. Pat. No. 6,625,808. The primary design element of U.S. Pat. No. 6,625,808 is in the structure of the elastic webbing band, which incorporates additional layers of elastic stitching between two elastic webbing sections, which results in expanding the stretch area of the elastic webbing band when the elastic webbing band is stretched, thereby providing the elastic webbing band with relatively better breathability. However, because the stitching thread used in U.S. Pat. No. 6,625,808 has elasticity, thus, the threads are concealed within the material of the elastic webbings (narrow space between arbitrary upper and lower layers) during the stitching process, and visual effect of the elastic webbing band gives the impression of three juxtaposed strips of elastic webbings. Furthermore, in normal situations, the elastic webbing band is transversally stretched and expanded along the length of the elastic webbing sections, which results in relatively poor breathability because the layers of elastic stitching are sewn close to perimeter edges of upper and lower elastic webbing sections,
- Hence, when the aforementioned elastic is stitched to a headwear, such as a headband or a cap, the user will feel stuffy and uncomfortable after wearing the headwear for a period of time. Accordingly, the elastic webbing band is incapable of truly complying with exacting requirements for breathability, and, visually, is unable to achieve a fine and smooth textural effect. Moreover. This prior art elastic webbing band has relatively poor aesthetic appeal.
- Hence, motive behind the present invention is to improve on the design of such elastic webbings so that the elastic webbing still provides breathability when stretched, and is applicable for use in headbands or hats.
- A primary objective of the present invention is to provide a new elastic webbing structure, which apart from achieving elastic stretchability, moreover, the elastic webbing retains effectiveness of high-breathability, and when incorporated in a headband, cap or hat, the wearer feels more comfortable with the elastic webbing in contact with his skin.
- Another objective of the present invention is to provide the elastic webbing with functionality to be able to present the appearance of being covered with a lace-type band, thereby adding a refined touch to the elastic webbing, and integrates an elegant aesthetic effect when incorporated in headwear or clothing.
- Yet another objective of the present invention is to provide the elastic webbing with pattern variability in diversified woven designs using the same material and high-breathability design concept.
- In order to achieve the aforementioned objectives, the high-breathability lace-type elastic webbing of the present invention comprises a plurality of elastic webbing sections and connecting threads sewn between the elastic webbing sections. To enhance the aesthetic effect of the elastic webbing, a plurality of strips of elastic webbing sections having equal width are woven together to form an integral body or a plurality of strips of elastic webbing sections having different widths are woven together to form an integral body. Stitch sections of the non-elastic connecting threads sewn between each pair of the elastic webbing sections are completely exposed on the surface of the elastic webbing sections, thereby adding an aesthetic appeal to the outward appearance of the elastic webbing similar to serrated edging of lace or a reticular pattern, which increases refinement in elastic webbing products.
- To enable a further understanding of said objectives and the technological methods of the invention herein, brief description of the drawings is provided below followed by detailed description of the preferred embodiments.

FIGS. 1 and 1 A, which show anelastic webbing 10 of the present invention fabricated from a plurality of elastic webbing sections (11, 12, 13), which enable theelastic webbing 10 to achieve transversal stretchability, and non-elastic connectingthreads 20 are stitched between the elastic webbing sections (11, 12, 13). The aforementioned elastic webbing sections (11, 12, 13) are of equal width and of a similar design concept, as depicted inFIG. 1 . However, the elastic webbing sections (11, 12, 13) can have different widths and be arranged under the same disposition as depicted inFIG. 1 , thereby furnishing theelastic webbing 10 with additional varied aesthetic effects. - The connecting
threads 20 are fabricated from non-elastic thread, and preferred choice of material for the connectingthreads 20 is nylon or polyester. A left and right alternating joining stitch is adopted to stitch the connectingthreads 20. Spacing betweenneedle points 21, closeness and number of layers or length of exposedstitch sections 22 depend on application needs and are not limited to specific values. - The nylon thread, polyester thread or thread of other various materials having analogous properties are sewn so as to expose the
stitch sections 22 on the surface of the elastic webbing sections (11, 12, 13), thus, thestitch sections 22 are not inseparably close-fitting to the elastic webbing sections (11, 12, 13). Air gaps of certain extent are provided between thestitch sections 22 and surface of the elastic webbing sections (11, 12, 13), thereby furnishing theelastic webbing 10 with superior breathability when in a state prior to stretching, which is different from a conventional elastic webbing or an elastic webbing stitched using elastic thread that only achieve breathability when in a stretched state. When each of the elastic webbing sections (11, 12, 13) are stitched together to form an integral body, thestitch sections 22 of the connectingthreads 20 are completely exposed on the surface of the elastic webbing sections (11, 12, 13), thereby adding an aesthetic effect similar to the appearance of lace, and ultimately achieving an elastic webbing having new functionality. Moreover, if the connectingthreads 20 were fabricated from elastic material, then they would be sunk into the plane of the main body of the elastic webbing sections (11. 12, 13) when stitched thereinto, and thus not provide breathability. - Referring to
FIG. 2 , which shows an embodiment of theelastic webbing 10 comprising four strips of elastic webbing sections (11, 12, 13, 14) of equal width and thickness. The connectingthreads 20 do not have elastic properties, and are stitched between each pair of the elastic webbing sections (11, 12, 13). Stitch separation adopted can have a relatively wide distance of X, and each of the distances X can be the same. Another row of stitches can have stitches separated at a narrower distance of Y. Hence, distance Y can be different from distance X. In addition, using the same design concept, the elastic webbing sections (11, 12, 13) of mutually different widths can be structurally arranged as depicted inFIG. 3 , wherein width of theelastic webbing section 11 is m, and width of theelastic webbing section 12 is n, thereby furnishing theelastic webbing 10 with additional varied aesthetic effects after fabrication from the elastic webbing sections (11, 12, 13). - Furthermore, thickness, width or closeness of each of the elastic webbing sections (11, 12, 13) used in fabricating the
elastic webbing 10 are not limited to certain values. Moreover, nylon or polyester material can be Weaved into a variety of patterns or logos on the surface of theelastic webbing 10 using embroidery techniques to form a woven pattern effect. - Referring to
FIG. 4 , the structural characteristics of theelastic webbing 10 of the present invention make it applicable for use on acap 30, wherein theelastic webbing 10 is stitched to an inner circumference of thecap 30, and functions as a sweatband. Furthermore, theelastic webbing 10 provides functionality to automatically adjust cap size whenever necessary. - Referring to
FIG. 5 , which shows another use of the embodiment of the present invention, wherein theelastic webbing 10 is stitched to an inner circumference of acap 31. A rear end of thecap 31 has a section cut out, and adifferent fabric 14, the original elastic webbing material or a fastener is stitched to the cut-out section. Theelastic webbing 10 is similarly provided with sweat absorption functionality of a sweatband. - Referring to
FIG. 6 , which shows the embodiment of the present invention incorporated in atennis cap 33, wherein theelastic webbing 10 is fabricated from a plurality of the elastic webbing sections (11, 12, 13) stitched together with the connectingthreads 20. Thestitch sections 22 of the connectingthreads 20 are completely exposed on the surfaces of the elastic webbing sections (11, 12, 13), thereby forming a pattern on thecap 33 product that adds aesthetic appeal. Furthermore, theelastic webbing 10 provides superior breathability when wearing on the body. A rear section of thecap 33 is complemented with anelastic webbing 15 of different texture and pattern design, thereby furnishing thecap 33 with greater elegance and uniqueness. - Referring to
FIG. 7 , which shows an exterior view of the embodiment of the present invention incorporated in another style ofhat 34, wherein theelastic webbing 10 is stitched between amain body 35 of thecap 34 and abrim 36 of thehat 34, thereby enabling a semblance of theelastic webbing 10 to present a lace-type style rendering different gradations of the elastic webbing sections (11, 12, 13) and high breathable connectingthreads 20, thereby achieving effectiveness of breathability and non-stuffiness when wearing thehat 34, and providing a stylish hat that is out of the ordinary. - The present invention not only improves upon the shortcomings in poor breathability of prior art elastic webbings, but also adds a decorative effect when incorporated in a headband, hat or clothing, thereby greatly increasing practicability. Moreover, the elastic webbing of the present invention is applicable for use in various types of hat and headband products, and thus of practical value.
