DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0033] The present invention refers to a device (100) specially designed to provide rigidity and fall to fragments of garments, particularly collars (300) fabrics, preferably in polo shirts, shirts and other garments, which has as a main object to solve the technical problem of improving the appearance of woven collars that are used in polo shirts, preferably but not in a limited way since they can also be used in shirts, jackets, blouses and other clothing related to this type of neck, so that in this way it is possible to give a better flight and fall in the presentation of the garment in general, the device (100) is designed to be introduced on a receiving channel (200) located at the lateral ends of fragments of garments, particularly knitted collars, preferably on polo shirts, shirts and other garments. The device (100) for providing rigidity and fall to collars woven in polo shirts, shirts and other garments is constituted by a laminar body made preferably of polyurethane pelectalate preferably of at least 35, 45 or even 55 caliber, depending on the thickness of the neck tissue, has a general shape of lancet, with a globally rectangular cross section that at one of its ends has a angled tip (101) with an angle of at least 45 with respect to the axis of the device, wherein said tip has in its end a rounding (102) that is responsible for shaping said tip that is the most extreme of the neck portion (201), in an area close to the rounding (102), also has a beveled profile (103) with the purpose of having a simpler introduction to the fabric housing channel (200), with the proviso that the device (100) must be inserted into the fabric housing channel (200) in such a way that the beveled profile (103) is arranged in the direction of the inner side of the neck portion (201) since in this way the neck (300) acquires a more aesthetic and defined presence, the middle section (104) of the device (100) possesses a rectangular shape and is available to give the exact size to the size of the neck, and can be variable. For infant collars a measurement of at least 3 cm is recommended, while for adult necks, at least 4 cm is suggested, depending on the width of the neck and/or the measurement of the outer edge. In an area proximal to the lower part of the device (100) there are two pointed endings (105) located on each of the ends, with an angle of at least 20 with respect to the axial axis; wherein these pointed endings (105) are responsible for preventing the device (100) from moving inside the receiving channel (200) being out of position and canceling the aforementioned advantages that justify its presence and that derived of the movement could be displaced remaining in any other area within the aforementioned channel, and that at the same time each of those tip terminations (105), in its lower part are corresponding with a tongue (106) in order to give it a better presence to the neck (300) of the garment and avoid marking the ter tip jaws (105) therein as well as allowing maintenance of a continuity to the woven structure of the receiving channel (200) and avoids breaks in the vertices. The device (100) is preferably made of polyurethane pelectalate preferably from caliber of at least 35, 45 or even 55 since said material presents good resistance to heat, chlorine and other detergents used in the laundry cycle of the garment as well as providing the ideal weight to avoid the lifting and threading of the neck of said garment, in addition to good performances have been demonstrated in the reinforcements of shirt collar with the use of this material; In the same sense, in a preferred embodiment of material, the inclusion of stainless steel is made since it does not deform with heat and has an excellent resistance to chlorine and other detergents during the washing cycle, in the same way The use of other polymeric materials such as PVC or laminated nylon is also contemplated, since the use of these in the device and channel to provide rigidity and fall to necks woven in polo shirts, shirts and other garments (1) confers a good weight to avoid lifting and twisting the neck in the press as well as having a lower cost. The receiving channel (200) object of the present invention is housed in each of the lateral ends of a neck portion (201) of a garment and is arranged in the middle of at least two layers of fabric that confer the characteristic to remain hidden and in a disposition to receive the device (100), in its interior, the receiving channel (200) is arranged from the base of the neck portion (202) to the bottom (203) of said accommodation channel (200), where in turn, in each of its flanks is in correspondence with an outer edge (204), an inner edge (205), finally in the lower part of the neck portion (201) in the area coinciding with the receiving channel (200) there is an entrance (206) through which device (100) is inserted during its placement process. The portion of neck (201) inside the garment provides the necessary structure and provides the dimension to the press, has the advantage that it can be knitted in a continuous and smooth way in rectilinear machines of two fronts, also, if these are equipped with electronic or mechanical selection, it is possible to make the drawings that the selector allows. Depending on the size of the device (100), it is required to make the channel of different width, where the narrowest is a point, and which is formed by an English type mesh, up to a channel of 5 or 6 points, formed with the same amount of meshes, the design is based on the appearance and duration that the designer intends to give the garment, however preferentially suggest 5 mm for being the best performance, between appearance, weight to give fall and flight to the edge or outer edge of the collar, strength and durability of the garment. The receiving channel (200) and the device (100) operate with a harmonic ratio of measurements, do not allow slack, or too tight tolerances since this would cause the device (100) to be out of place, giving a bad appearance or causing that being excessively tight prematurely breaks the fiber used in the tissue of the neck.

BEST METHOD FOR CARRYING OUT THE INVENTION

[0034] The present examples are illustrative and not limiting, since a person skilled in the art will understand that there are variants that fall within the scope of the invention. scope of protection of the present invention. Example 1. Washing tests. The garments with the collars woven with the invention were tested for durability, effects after washing, ironing, condition of the neck and aesthetics of the garment. For which the following procedure of use and washing was established to simulate the wear and deformation of the neck in a sample of polo shirts: Two universes of 5 shirts were prepared each, group one without the invention and group two, with the devices of the invention. It was determined that it would be used during a working day of 9 hrs. In office activities, and light manufacturing, but within the same facilities, to guarantee the same climatic conditions, in 10 different users, who should carry out their activities daily, and at the end of the day, the samples were collected to carry out the washing cycle. Once the t-shirts are collected, the 10 t-shirts are washed in a homemade vertical blade washer, with another 10 pieces (they will always be the same clothes to simulate a similar wear in a home washing process) to occupy the capacity of the washing machine, which is programmed with the average water level and a 10-minute wash cycle for normal (medium) clothes, with detergent biodegradable commercial, and then a rinse cycle with synaptic water, and centrifuged, then hung in the shade for complete drying. The next day a process of ironing is performed at medium temperature and is available for another cycle of use. In FIG. 10A the shirt with the device (100) is observed at the beginning of the test, in FIG. 10B the result is observed after a cycle of use and washing, practically no alterations are seen in presence or wear, in the FIG. 10C you can see the result after five cycles of use and washing, you can see a slight wear on the fabric and finished, but the neck maintains the appearance and aesthetics, in FIG. 10D the garment is presented after 10 cycles of use and washing, where wear and slight deformation can be observed in flap and cloth, but the appearance and aesthetics of the garment is maintained, in FIG. 10E, the garment can be observed after 15 cycles of use and washing, where can see wear and deformation in the garment, but the neck maintains a good presence, in FIG. 10F the garment is observed after 20 washes and cycles of use, observing wear on the garment, but maintaining a presence in the neck or very esthetic, in FIG. 10G we can see the last scope in terms of use cycles, with 30, where it is observed that the garment maintains its appearance and aesthetics, so we can deduce that the present invention if it solves the problem that appears in the knitted necks of the polo shirts and other garments where this type of fabrics is needed. The comparative results at the end of the 30 washing cycles can be seen, on the one hand, a conventional shirt (FIG. 11A) and another with the device of the present invention (FIG. 11B), wherein a presentation of the neck, without corrugations or ripples, very different from the case of the conventional shirt, where you can see the corrugation, coriscado and bad presentation of the neck, comparing both samples is had a very acceptable presentation with the invention, despite the wear to which they were subjected.
