Abstract
A garment comprises an outer shell (4) and an inner liner (2). The inner liner is a liquid-water-resistant and water-vapour-permeable material (particularly coated expanded polytetrafluoroethylene membrane) which has a discontinuous pattern of abrasion-resisting polymeric material on the side which faces the outer shell. The pattern may be a pattern of dots (26) of abrasion-resisting polymer. The outer shell may be removable from the inner liner.
Description
WO 02/01977 PCT/GB01/02710 1 GARMENT ASSEMBLY The present invention relates to a garment assembly comprising an outer shell and an inner liner; and to a liner for use in the assembly. In particular, the invention relates to a garment assembly wherein the inner liner is water-resistant and water-vapour-permeable and the outer shell is fixed or replaceable.
Garments comprising an inner liner which is water-resistant and water-vapour-permeable and which have a replaceable outer shell are known. The replaceable outer shell is generally attached to the inner liner in a removable manner e.g. by zips or press-studs, and gives the wearer the flexibility to choose the colour or fabric of the outer shell independently of the nature of the inner liner (which imparts the necessary waterresistance and water-vapour-permeability). Water-resistance means that under normal conditions of wear, the garment is impervious to penetration by liquid water. Water-vapourpermeability is the ability for moisture exuded from the body of the wearer to pass through the inner liner so as to prevent build up of moisture inside the garment, making it uncomfortable to wear.
A known construction of such a garment involves an inner liner formed of an expanded polytetrafluoroethylene (ePTFE) membrane having a water-vapour-permeable polymeric coating on an inner surface thereof facing the body of the wearer. In order to protect the water-resistant water-vapour-permeable membrane, a knitted material is normally laminated to an inner side of the WO 02/01977 PCT/GB01/02710 2 membrane and another knitted layer is laminated to the outer side of the membrane to protect against abrasion with the outer shell of the garment. However, a problem with this known construction is that under rainy conditions, water penetrates the outer shell and wets the outer facing knitted layer of the inner liner. This knitted layer becomes saturated with water and gives the garment a clammy feel to the wearer and also adds extra weight. This derives from the water absorbancy and retention properties of the knitted materials conventionally used on the outer side of the liner.
A further problem with this known constructions is that it is sometimes difficult to seam-seal the seams of the inner liner to provide the required water-resistance to the liner as a whole, due to the presence of the outward facing knitted layer. As is known, water-resistant water-vapour-permeable garments of this type are generally seam-sealed to provide water-tightness by applying a tape over seams in the garment to prevent water ingress through the seams.
It is an object of the present invention to mitigate these disadvantages.
Broadly speaking, this is accomplished in the present invention by providing a discontinuous pattern of polymeric material over the outward facing side of the water-resistant water-vapour-permeable liner, so as to resist abrasion between the liner and the outer shell. However, the abrasion-resistant polymeric material does not have the disadvantage of becoming wetted by rain to any significant extent.
3 In particular, the present invention provides a garment which comprises: o an outer shell surrounding an inner liner; the inner liner comprising a water-resistant watervapour-permeable material having a first side and a second side; the first side facing the outer shell, the waterresistant water-vapour-permeable material comprising a
\O
CI substrate coated with a hydrophilic film forming the first side, and a discontinuous pattern of abrasion-resisting polymeric material being provided over said first side; Sthe discontinuous pattern of abrasion-resisting polymeric (1 material being in the form of dots having a height of to 500 microns.
The invention also relates to the inner liner per se having attachment means for attaching to an outer garment shell.
The outer garment shell may in principal be formed of any fabric or other material suitable for this purpose.
It can be made of any suitable weight of fabric, though lightweight fabrics are preferred to avoid making the overall garment too heavy. Generally, the fabric will be one which retains water to a minimal extent and is fast drying. It may be treated with a conventional showerproofing coating, including water repellant coatings or impregnations. The outer shell may surround the inner liner either completely or incompletely. For example, if the inner liner includes sleeves, the outer garment could be in the form of a vest or waistcoat covering only the body part of the inner liner and leaving the sleeves free.
The outer shell may be fixed to the inner liner.
However, in a particularly preferred embodiment, the outer shell is removable and interchangeable. For example, a number of outer shells may be provided, each differing in terms of colour or fabric or each carrying different logos or wording. For example, a paramedic arriving at an emergency scene might attach onto his inner liner an outer shell bearing particular wording, such as "Supervisor".
H:\melindaf\keep\Speci'S\2001274 26 9.doc 8/10/04 4 The outer shell is preferably removably attached to the inner liner by conventional attachment means, such as O zips, press studs, hooks, hook and eye fasteners e.g.
Velcro (trademark). Typically, the outer shell is 5 attached to the inner liner by a pair of zips extending down either side of the front opening of the garment.
h Thus, the outer shell and the inner liner are usually only
IO
C-i loosely attached to one another and there is a spacing between.
10 The inner liner comprises a water-resistant water- Svapour-permeable material. Suitable materials are CI disclosed in patent specification GB2316341A. Thus, a preferred material comprises a woven or non-woven substrate, typically formed from expanded polytetrafluoroethylene (ePTFE) coated on the first side facing the outer shell with a water-resistant watervapour-permeable hydrophilic film of the type disclosed in patent specification US 4,194,041. The polymer is generally a hydrophilic polymer such as a polyurethane of polyester. The hydrophilic polymer may include a filler such as disclosed in patent specification GB9921103.9; nanometer sized carbon particles being particularly preferred in view of the improved abrasion resistance that they impart.
H:\melindaf\keep\Speci's\2001274269.doc 8/10/04 WO 02/01977 PCT/GB01/02710 The discontinuous pattern of abrasion-resisting material may be in the form of continuous lines or grids or in the form of unconnected bodies of abrasion-resisting polymer, such as dots, chevrons, discrete lines or other unconnected shapes. The dots may be any shape (in plan-view), such as squares,circles, ovals, rectangles, polygons etc. In order to minimise abrasion of the outer shell, shapes having sharp corners are not preferred.
Preferably, the dots are truncated pyramidal, truncated hemispherical, hemispherical or part-spherical in threedimensional shape. Generally, the polymeric material is partially raised from the surface of the hydrophilic material and the raised profiles are preferably smooth to avoid snagging of the inner liner against the outer shell.
The pattern of dots may be a random pattern or an orderly pattern according to a predetermined spatial geometry. Each dot preferably has a maximum diameter of 200 to 2000 microns, preferably 500 to 1000 microns. The dots may be spaced apart centre-to-centre by 250 to 3000 microns, particularly 800 to 1200 microns. Typically, the dots have a height above said first side of 50 to 500 microns, especially 100 to 400 microns.
Typically, the abrasion-resisting polymeric material covers 30-80%, preferably 40-75% and typically 50-70% of the first side of the material of the inner liner.
The abrasion resisting polymeric material may include a prepolymer which cures in situ, a UV light-curable polymer, a room temperature vulcanising polymer, or a thermoplastic polymer.
The polymeric material may be applied to the substrate in liquid form from a hot melt, by solution coating or by emulsion coating.
WO 02/01977 PCT/GB01/02710 6 Suitable elastomeric polymers include polyesters, polyvinylchloride, polyamides, silicones, polyurethanes, or polyurethane-polyester composites. Reactive polyurethanes, such as blocked polymers, whose reactive groups unblock above a certain temperature are especially useful. The cured polymer will generally be resistant to conventional dry-cleaning solvents. Conventional application methods includes screen printing, gravure printing and spraying. The polymeric material may be water-vapour-permeable or not, and the particular polymer will be chosen such that the water-vapour-permeability of the inner liner is within chosen limits.
A conventional textile lining may be laminated to the second side or inner side of the liner material.
The water-vapour-permeability (MVTR) of the inner liner will generally be at least 1,000 or preferably at least 1500 and most preferably greater than 3,000 g/m 2 /day.
The water-resistance of the inner liner may be measured by the Suter water-resistance test. An acceptable practical indication of water-resistance is one in which there is no evidence of water being forced through a sample by a pressure of 1.41bs per sq.inch (0.1kg/cm 2 or more typically 2.01bs per sq.inch (0.14kg/cm 2 Abrasion resistance may be measured employing a Martindale abrasion machine of the type described in J.Text.Inst. 1942:33, T151. After a predetermined number of rubs, the material is removed and tested for water-resistance until a leak is detected.
The term "garment" includes jackets, trousers, overcoats etc.
WO 02/01977 PCT/GB01/02710 7 An embodiment of the present invention will now be described by way of example only in conjunction with the attached drawings, wherein; Figure 1 is a view of a garment i.e. a jacket, according to the present invention, and Figure 2 is a schematic cross-sectional view of the outer shell and inner liner construction.
Figure 1 shows a jacket according to the present invention comprising an inner liner 2 and an outer shell 4 removably attached thereto. Both the inner liner and outer shell are full garments i.e. they cover both the body and arms of the wearer.
The inner liner is attached to the outer shell by means of half-zips 6,8 respectively down the front of the inner liner and outer shell, which are removably connected by means of a zip clasp 9. One complete zip is provided along each side of the front opening of the jacket.
The jacket is shown with the zip partially open to reveal a portion 10 of the inner liner, which is a first side of the water-resistant water-vapour-permeable material, and on which is provided the discontinuous pattern of abrasion-resisting polymeric dots.
Figure 2 shows a detailed cross-section of the inner liner 2 and the outer shell 4.
Suitable fabrics for the outer shell 4 include filament, staple or blends thereof of any suitable fibre including acrylics, polyesters, polypropylenes, nylons, aramids and melamines. They may be knitted, woven, non-wovens, impregnated fabrics or porous coated fabrics. Generally, the fabric has a WO 02/01977 PCT/GB01/02710 8 moisture vapour permeability (MVTR) in the range 4000 to 19000 g/m 2 /24hr.
A preferred material for the outer shell is a 65% polyester, cotton blend woven fabric, twill weave (weight 300 g/m 2 treated with a water repellant finish (MVTR 19000 g/m 2 /24hr).
Suitable test methods for measuring water resistance (Suter test) water-vapour-permeability (MVTR) and abrasion resistance are described in patent specification GB2316341.
The inner liner 2 comprises an expanded polytetrafluoroethylene membrane 20 of the type disclosed in patent specification US 3,953,566 having applied thereto a coating 22 comprising a hydrophilic polymer as described in patent specification US 4,194,041 The ePTFE layer 20 and the hydrophilic polymer coating 22 constitute the water-resistant water-vapour-permeable material of the inner liner. On a first side 24 thereof is applied a pattern of polymeric abrasion-resisting dots 26. The dots are applied in a rosette pattern. Each dot is in the shape of a truncated square pyramid of diameter approximately 780 microns and height 200 microns. Coverage is typically 60%. The composite inner liner laminate may be made by the coating and lamination techniques described in GB2316341. The abrasionresisting polymer is a polyurethane polymer referred to as prepared according to Example 1 of patent specification US 5,209,969. Silicone polymer could also be used.
Both the hydrophilic coating 22 and optionally the polymeric abrasion-resisting dots comprise a filler consisting of nanometer size carbon particles.
9 Laminated to the inner face of the inner liner is a C textile material which is aesthetically pleasing and may O be any woven, knitted or non-woven material of any fibre type including nylons, aramids, melamines, acrylics.
5 Typically, the textile lining 30 is 100% polyester warp knitted, sueded material of a mass approximately 110 g/m 2 C Generally, the inner liner has an overall moisture (C vapour permeability in the region 3,000 g/m 2 /24hr to 14,000 g/m 2 /24hr.
10 The breathability of the garment as a whole (outer Sshell and inner liner) is greater than 2600 g/m 2 /24hr.
C( The abrasion resistance of the inner liner was measured using a Martindale abrasion testing machine as described in patent specification GB2316341. The abrasion resistance of the first side of the liner having the abrasion-resisting dot pattern was tested against 12 kPa abradent wool, and no leaks (1 psi for 3 mins) were detected after 105,000 rubs. Tested against 12 kPa cotton blend fabric, no leaks (1 psi for 3 mins) were detected after 20,000 rubs, and in fact the fabric abraded away first.
A further benefit of this construction is that seam sealing of the sewn seams of the inner liner is carried out over the first side of the inner liner i.e. over the polymeric dot pattern. Thus, the seam sealing tape is not visible on the inside of the garment but is hidden by the presence of the outer shell.
In the claims which follow and in the preceding description of the invention, except where the context requires otherwise due to express language or necessary implication, the word "comprise" or variations such as "comprises" or "comprising" is used in an inclusive sense, i.e. to specify the presence of the stated features but not to preclude the presence or addition of further features in various embodiments of the invention.
