Description

Technical Field

The present invention relates to a method for wrapping clothing, and in particular to a wrapping method where clothing can be wrapped easily and coming untied is made hard, and a clothing-wrapped body obtained by the wrapping method.

Background Art

Cloth wrappers are convenient ones for wrapping an object and they are widely used since before.
An ordinary cloth wrapper is made of a rectangular cloth, it is considerably simple, it can be made small by folding the same, it can be made wide by expanding the same, and it can also be kept easily.
Further, since the cloth wrapper is simple, it can perform wrapping in a proper shape corresponding to an article to be stored.
In addition, in order to wrap an article, there is conventionally a wrapping method corresponding to an article to be stored and such an approach is followed until now.
However, it is easy for skilled persons to perform the wrapping method, but it is unexpectedly hard for unskilled persons to perform the wrapping method.
Cloth wrappers configured such that the unskilled persons can wrap an article are provided by adding a twist for solving the above problem.
For example, PTL I describes a multi-purpose cloth wrapper which can be used as a cloth wrapper for dust prevention of clothing and can be used as a carrier bag.
This cloth wrapper can be used as one for dust prevention obtained by forming a plurality of button holes radially at a center of the cloth wrapper made of square cloth-like material and on a circumference within the cloth wrapper and causing a hook of a hanger fitted with clothing to penetrate the button holes to cover the suit of clothes and can be used as one for a carrier bag configured such that an article stored within a circumstance of the cloth wrapper is stored in a small bag by attaching a string body into insertion holes arranged in a circumferential shape so as to appear and disappear on inside and outside faces of the cloth wrapper and fastening the string body.
Further, PTL 2 discloses a cloth wrapper which can keep freshness of a food in a preferable state.
The cloth wrapper is composed of a composite material obtained by integrating a sheet material obtained by depositing aluminum powder on a polyester film and a sheet material of foamed polyethylene with each other by performing lamination and a composite material obtained by superimposing a sheet material made of polyethylene on a surface of the sheet material made of the foamed polyethylene of the composite material to perform lamination, and it is configured so as to cut these two kinds of composite materials in a square or rectangular cloth wrapper and attaching a rubber string at a corner portion of the cloth wrapper.
Furthermore, PTL 3 discloses a cloth wrapper which does not include such a problem as fastening corners of the cloth wrapper to connect them, is excellent in handling or stability and is easy to use for anyone.
This cloth wrapper is a cloth wrapper having four corner portions, where coupling portions (composed of a button and a slit) coupling two corner portions on one of diagonal lines are provided and hole portions in which the two corner portions on the one of the diagonal lines coupled by the coupling portions can be inserted are provided on two corner portions of the other of the diagonal lines, respectively, and a length of the one of the diagonal lines connecting the two corner portions provided with the coupling portions is longer than a length of the other of the diagonal lines connecting the two corner portions provided with the hole portions.
Further, PTL 4 discloses a multi-purpose cloth wrapper which can wrap articles to be stored having various shapes/sizes to carry them and makes possible various carrying methods such as a shopping bag type, a shoulder type, or a backpack type.
The cloth wrapper is composed of a square sheet having handles formed at four corner portions, a plurality of string insertion portions provided at predetermined intervals on four sides of the square sheet, a first strap provided so as to be inserted through the string insertion portions on two adjacent sides of the square sheet, and a second strap provided so as to be inserted through the string insertion portions on the remaining two sides.
However, each of these cloth wrappers adopts such a configuration that many holes are provided in a cloth wrapper, or an article is wrapped by using such a member as a button or a string, so that the cloth wrapper have such a defect that they come untied when a string or the like loosens or gets cut.
Further, these cloth wrappers are not simple regarding their structures and are rather expensive as cloth wrappers when being compared with an ordinary cloth wrapper.

Description of Embodiments

Suitable embodiments of the present invention will be explained below referring to the drawings if necessary.

(First Embodiment)

A wrapping method of the present invention makes it possible to wrap clothing S to store the same simply with a considerably simple cloth wrapper A with small hole.
Though a case of wrapping clothing S such as a shirt will be explained below as an example, not only the clothing S but also all clothes can be adopted.
The cloth wrapper A used in the present invention is rectangular and is provided with four corner portions.
Figures 1(A) to 1(C) are views showing an embodiment of the cloth wrapper of the present invention, Figure 1(A) showing a perspective view, Figure 1(B) showing an observe side, and Figure 1(C) showing a reverse side.
As shown in Figures 1(A) to 1(C), the cloth wrapper A of the present invention has a first corner portion 1, a second corner portion 2 located at a diagonal position to the first corner portion 1 (the first corner portion 1 located on a far side and the second corner portion 2 located on a near side in Figure 1(A)), and a right third corner portion 3 and a left fourth corner portion 4 (the fourth corner portion 4 located on the left side and the third corner portion 3 located on the right side in a right and left-direction in Figure 1(A)).
The first corner portion 1 is formed with a small hole 1A, and the small hole 1A is required for inserting another corner portion into the small hole 1A to retain the same after the clothing is wrapped, as described later.
Then, it is preferable to sew a periphery of the small hole 1A to perform eyelet working 1A1 and further form an eyelet obtained by the eyelet working 1A1 in a petal shape.
A display mark P is provided on the second corner portion 2.
The display mark P is adopted as a character pattern, a trademark, or the like and it can be visually recognized as a one-point mark.
As an aspect of the cloth, such a flexible cloth as to be capable of wrapping an article such as to be used for an ordinary cloth wrapper A can be adopted, and for example, a fabric, a knitted fabric, a non-woven fabric, a paper, or the like can be used.
Then, as a material of the cloth, a natural fiber such as silk or cotton or a synthetic fiber such as polyester or polyamide can be used.
Next, a wrapping method will be described.
Figure 2 is a block diagram showing a procedure of a wrapping method using the cloth wrapper of the embodiment of the present invention.
When the wrapping method is considered according to a series of flows, it is a wrapping method for storing clothing in a cloth wrapper A including: expanding a rectangular cloth wrapper A having a first corner portion 1 provided with small hole, a second corner portion 2 located at a diagonal position to the first corner portion 1, and a third corner portion 3 and a fourth corner portion 4 located between the first corner portion 1 and the second corner portion 2; putting clothing S on the cloth wrapper A; folding a right half R of the cloth wrapper A so as to cover the clothing S; inserting the third corner portion 3 under the clothing S; next, folding a left half L of the cloth wrapper A so as to cover the folded right half R; folding the fourth corner portion 4 so as to be returned; thereafter, folding the first corner portion 1 (toward a near side) so as to close an opening portion; and in this state, folding a lower half of the cloth wrapper A (toward a far side) to insert the second corner portion 2 into a small hole 1A of the first corner portion 1 from bottom to top.
Here, the right half, the left half, the lower half and the like do not mean a half exactly necessarily.
Such a wrapping method will be further explained for each step.
Figures 3(A) to 3(D) are state views showing a procedure (the first half) of the wrapping method using the cloth wrapper according to the embodiment of the present invention, Figure 3(A) showing a cloth wrapper expanding step, Figure 3(B) showing a clothing putting step, Figure 3(C) showing a right half folding step, and Figure 3(D) showing a left half folding step.
Incidentally, an upper side on Figures 3(A) to 3(D) is called far side and a lower side on Figures 3(A) to 3(D) is called near side for convenience.

1) Cloth Wrapper Expanding Step [see Figure 3(A)]:

First, the step 1) includes largely expanding and expanding the cloth wrapper A on a flat face.
As a stand to be used for expanding, one close to a flat face to the utmost is easy to handle.
Then, as shown in Figure 3(A), the cloth wrapper A is disposed such that the first corner portion 1 with small hole is located on the far side and the second corner portion 2 at a diagonal position to the first corner portion 1 is located on the near side.
Further, it is preferable that the display mark P on the second corner portion 2 is provided on an observe side of the cloth wrapper A in order to expose the display mark P on the observe side when the second corner portion 2 is inserted into the small hole 1A to be expanded, as explained later.
Incidentally, in the case that the display mark P is provided on the reverse side, the second corner portion 2 may be twisted when the second corner portion 2 is inserted into the small hole 1A.

2) Clothing Putting Step [see Figure 3(B)]:

Next, the step 2) includes putting the clothing S on the cloth wrapper A disposed in this manner.
It is preferable that how to put the clothing S is performed such that a neck portion of the clothing S is located on the side of the first corner portion 1 having the small hole 1A and a barrel portion of the clothing S is located on the opposite side (namely, such that the far side corresponds to the neck portion and the near side corresponds to the barrel portion in Figure 3(B)) and the clothing S is put in the vicinity of the center of the cloth wrapper A.
Even if how to put is slightly shifted in a front-back direction, the shape of the clothing-wrapped body only slightly varies.

3) Right Half Folding Step [see Figure 3(C)]

Next, the step 3) includes folding a right half R of the cloth wrapper A so as to cover the clothing S and slightly floating the clothing S to insert the third corner portion 3 into a space below the clothing S.
It is preferable that, when the right half R of the cloth wrapper A is folded, a line connecting the small hole 1A of the first corner portion 1 and the display mark P is thought as a center line and it is used as a reference when folding is performed.

4) Left Half Folding Step [see Figure 3(D)]:

Next, the step 4) includes folding a left half L so as to cover the folded right half R.
That is, the step includes folding the left half L to cover the right half R which has been folded with the left half L.
Then, the step includes folding the fourth corner portion 4 so as to return the same such that the fourth corner portion 4 does not project from a folded end (a crease R1) of the right half R.
Incidentally, there is no problem even if the fourth corner portion 4 slightly projects from the crease R1.
The folding-back is performed to the observe side, but, of course, the folding-back to the reverse side may be performed.
Further, when the folding-back is performed to the reverse side, it is also possible to perform the folding-back to the reverse side of the right half via the folded end (the crease R1).
Incidentally, it is also possible to adopt such a configuration that the right half folding step and the left half holding step have been reversed in the order thereof.
Via the above-described wrapping course (the cloth wrapper A expanding → the clothing S putting → the right half R folding → the left half L folding), the cloth wrapper A is narrowed in a lateral width to become vertically long, and becomes a shape like a necktie, namely, "necktie shape".
Next, Figure 4(E) to 4(H) are state views showing a procedure (the second half) of the wrapping method using the cloth wrapper of the embodiment of the present invention, Figure 4(E) showing a first corner portion 1 folding step, Figure 4(F) showing a second corner portion 2 folding step, Figure 4(G) showing a step of inserting a second corner portion 2 into a small hole 1A, and Figure 4(H) showing a second corner portion 2 expanding step.

5) First Corner Portion Folding Step [see Figure 4(E)]:

The cloth wrapper A formed in the necktie shape is put in a state where a first opening portion M1 has been formed in the vicinity of the first corner portion 1 on the far side and a second opening portion M2 has been formed in the vicinity of the second corner portion 2 on the near side.
Here, the step 5) includes folding the first corner portion 1 on the far side to the near side to close the first opening portion M1.

6) Step of Inserting Second Corner Portion into Small Hole [see Figure 4(F) and Figure 4(G)]:

Next, the step 6) includes folding the near side of the cloth wrapper A formed in the necktie shape to the far side to put the same on the cloth wrapper A and inserting the second corner portion 2 into the small hole 1 A of the first corner portion 1 from bottom to top.
In the step 6), it is performed to put the second corner portion 2 under the reverse side of the first corner portion 1 to insert the second corner portion 2 into the small hole 1 A from bottom to top.
When the second corner portion 2 is inserted into the small hole 1A of the first corner portion 1, insertion of the second corner portion 2 is simply performed in a squeezed state obtained by performing an operation for adding twisting to the second corner portion 2.
Further, when an eyelet working 1A1 is performed in a petal shape by sewing the periphery of the small hole 1A, the petal shape serves as a mark so that insertion of the second corner portion 2 is made easy.

7) Second Corner Portion Expanding Step [see Figure 4(H)]:

The step 7) includes expanding and largely spreading a portion of the second corner portion 2 pulled out after inserting the second corner portion 2 into the small hole 1A of the first corner portion 1 in this manner.
By expanding and largely spreading the portion in this manner, the second corner portion 2 is hard to come off from the small hole 1A.
In the state largely spread in this manner, the display mark P is exposed and it can be visually recognized easily as a one-point mark.

8) Termination of wrapping:

The whole wrapping procedure is terminated in the above manner.
The shape of the cloth wrapper A (the clothing-wrapped body A1) after the wrapping is terminated is approximately rectangular in this example, and it takes such a design aspect as a flower where the third corner portion 3 is largely spread at an approximately central position of the clothing-wrapped body A1.
For your reference, Figure 8 shows a whole schematic view of the clothing-wrapped body which is a cloth wrapper after wrapping is terminated.
In this case, the second corner portion 2 functions as if a handle by grasping the largely-spread first corner portion 1 with a hand.
Figure 9 is a schematic side view for explaining a method for grasping a clothing-wrapped body with a hand to hang up the same with the hand.
The first corner portion 1 is grasped with a hand, but since the first corner portion 1 is largely spread, it can be grasped easily.
After the first corner portion 1 is grasped, the whole cloth wrapper can be hung (A → B →C) by lifting up the clothing-wrapped body as it is.
By grasping and lifting up the first corner portion 1, many clothing-wrapped bodies can be hung, which is convenient for carrying.
Further, the clothing-wrapped body can also be put on a shoulder of a user by pulling out the first corner portion 1 long, which is convenient.
Though regarding the present invention, the embodiment has been explained as an example, the present invention is not limited to only the embodiment unless the gist of the present invention is changed, and various modified embodiments can be adopted in the present invention.
For example, as the cloth wrapper A, such a configuration that the display mark P is not provided can be adopted.
For your reference, Figures 5(A) and 5(B) show cloth wrappers A where the display mark P is not provided and only the small hole 1A is provided, Figure 5(A) showing an example where a periphery of the small hole 1A is sewn and an eyelet working is performed, and Figure 5(B) showing an example of small hole which has not been subjected to an eyelet working.
Incidentally, in the eyelet working, a metal ring or a resin ring can also adopted.
Further, when the second corner portion 2 has a corner whose portion has been subjected to resin treatment to be made hard such that it is easy to insert the second corner portion 2 into the small hole 1A, rigidity occurs at the corner, which is useful.
In addition, though the shape of the cloth wrapper A has been explained as the rectangular shape, a rhombus can also be adopted.
Further, a corner of the corner portion which has been slightly rounded can also be adopted.
Furthermore, an oblong cloth wrapper A can also be adopted if it can be applied with a wrapping procedure such as shown in Figures 7(A) to 7(F).
Figures 6(A) to 6(H) show modified examples of the shape of the cloth wrapper A.
Figure 6(A) shows a square, Figure 6(B) shows a square with rounded corners, Figure 6(C) shows a square having concave curved sides, and Figure 6(D) shows a square having convex curved sides.
In this case, since Figure 6(B) shows a square with rounded arc-shaped corners, when an over edging is performed to a periphery of a cloth wrapper, three arc-shaped portions except for the first corner portion 2 can be continuously sewn with no pause, so that a manufacturing efficiency is excellent.
Figure 6(E) shows a rhombus, Figure 6(F) shows a rhombus with rounded corners, Figure 6(F) shows a rhombus having concave curved sides, and Figure 6(H) shows a rhombus having a convex curved sides.
Incidentally, regarding the square with rounded corners shown in Figure 6(B) and the rhombus with rounded corners shown in Figure 6(F), only the second corner portions 2 are left so that it is easy to insert the second corner portions 2 into the small holes 1A.
Figures 7(A) to 7(F) are state views showing the wrapping procedure using a rhombic cloth wrapper A of the embodiment of the present invention, where Figure 7(A) shows a cloth wrapper A expanding step, Figure 7(B) shows a clothing S putting step, Figure 7(C) shows a right half R folding step, Figure 7(D) shows a left half L folding step, Figure 7(E) shows a first corner portion 1 folding step, and Figure 7(F) shows a second corner portion 2 expanding step after a step of insertion the second corner portion 2 into the small hole 1A.
Thus, even in the rhombic cloth wrapper A, basically, wrapping is performed according to a procedure similar to that of the square cloth wrapper A described above, but the rhombic cloth wrapper A is arranged in a horizontally long shape in the cloth wrapper expanding step, as shown in Figure 7(A).
Since folding margins of the right half R and the left half L can be taken large, a wide package can be obtained in a final shape.
In the case of the rhombus, when the rhombic cloth wrapper is used in a vertically long shape, a narrow package can be made, and when the rhombic cloth wrapper is used in a horizontally long shape, a wide package can be made.

Industrial Applicability

Since the wrapping method for storing clothing in a cloth wrapper A of the present invention includes: expanding the rectangular cloth wrapper A having a first corner portion 1 provided with a small hole 1A, a second corner portion 2 located in a diagonal position to the first corner portion 1, and a third corner portion 3 and a fourth corner portion 4 located between the first corner portion 1 and the second corner portion 2; putting clothing S on the cloth wrapper A; folding a right half R of the cloth wrapper A so as to cover the clothing S; inserting the third corner portion 3 under the clothing S; next, folding a left half L of the cloth wrapper A so as to cover the folded right half R; folding the fourth corner portion 4 so as to be returned; thereafter, folding the first corner portion 1 (toward a near side) so as to close an opening portion; and in this state, folding a lower half portion of the cloth wrapper A (toward a far side) to insert the second corner portion 2 into the small hole 1A of the first corner portion 1 from bottom to top, the cloth wrapper A is simple in structure, can wrap the clothing S or the like simply, and once the cloth wrapper S wraps the clothing S or the like, it is hard to come untied.
As far as utilizing this point, the present invention can also be diverted to an article other than the clothing.
