Definitions

  • the invention relates to a seat element for a bicycle pants.
  • a similar seat element is also described in WO 99/41134.
  • This seat element is also sewn into the cycling pants or can in a in the Bike pants provided pocket can be inserted.
  • the seat element described in WO 99/41134 thus also has the disadvantages described above. Further, the seat member described herein has an approach to protect the penis root.
  • the object of the invention is to provide a seat element for bicycle pants, by which the occurrence of cracks is avoided.
  • the seat element according to the invention is separated from the cycling pants and inserted into this.
  • the seat element has a seat cushion for upholstering a seat in the seat area. Since the seat element can be inserted into the cycling pants, there is no firm connection between the cycling pants and the, seat element. As a result, the occurrence of seam tensions, which can lead to damage to the pants avoided. Furthermore, the pants in the area of the seat element is still elastic. Also, a relative movement between the pants and seat element is possible, so that the wearing comfort is increased and damage to the pants is avoided by increased voltages.
  • the outside of the seat element is provided with an adhesive coating.
  • the adhesive coating is designed in such a way that there is little support between the cycling pants and the seat element. This serves to avoid slippage of the seat element. On the other hand, the adhesive effect is not so great that a firm connection between the cycling pants and the seat element arises.
  • the elasticity of the cycling pants in the region of the seat element is not or only very slightly influenced by the adhesive coating.
  • the outside of the seat member therefore only partially coated with the adhesive coating.
  • the adhesive coating is strip-shaped.
  • the adhesive coating used is preferably silicone or a silicone mixture.
  • a suitable silicone mixture By a suitable silicone mixture, the desired adhesion can be adjusted.
  • a protective element for the male genital area can furthermore be provided on the seat element. It is a cup-shaped protective element that determines the position of the penis and testes.
  • the provision of the cup-shaped protective element solves the problem that sports pants, such as cycling pants, are frequently worn without underpants, since these are troublesome and can lead to abrasions.
  • sports pants such as cycling pants
  • the wearing of cycling pants without underpants means that the position of the penis is not fixed. This is extremely unpleasant.
  • the wearing comfort of the cycling pants is also increased without underpants.
  • the edge of the protective element is designed such that it bears at least partially on the skin of the person carrying the seat element.
  • the edge of the protective element preferably completely surrounds the outer genital area.
  • the outer genital area is thus preferably completely protected by the cup-shaped protective element, wherein the outer genital area is completely surrounded by the edge of the outer protective element, except for the connection point between the protective element and the seat cushion. This provides a pleasant and comfortable stop.
  • stiffening element is an element, preferably made of thermoplastic material, by which the connection of the substance in this area is ensured and, in addition, a depth of insertion of the trousers is produced.
  • the seat cushion has a longitudinally extending venous protection channel.
  • a vein running directly beneath the surface of the skin is used to treat the male genitalia. Especially when you sit for a long time on a bicycle saddle this vein is pressed, so that circulatory disorders can occur.
  • the venous channel in this area the blood circulation is guaranteed even when sitting on a bicycle saddle for a long time.
  • a venous protection channel is an independent invention that is independent of the provision of a protective element for the genital area. Likewise, this is Invention regardless of whether the seat cushion is inserted into a cycling pants or sewn into it, so that the invention also includes a sewn into a bicycle pants seat pad with venous protection channel.
  • the seat element has a seat cushion 10 arranged in the rear area and a protective element 12 arranged in the front area.
  • the protective element 12 is cup-shaped in cross-section (FIG. 2).
  • An edge 14 of the protective element 12 is: arranged substantially in a plane, so that the edge 14 rests against the body of the person.
  • the protective element 12 is made of padded fabric.
  • the rim 14 is soft and elastic to prevent pressure points on the body from being created by the protective element. Furthermore, the provision of soft material increases wearing comfort.
  • the seat cushion 10 which consists of a soft material which may be multi-layered and has a padding between the fabric layers, has two seating surfaces 16. Between the seating surfaces 16 is a groove 18 to increase the flexibility provided, so that the rear portion of the seat cushion is formed like a bird's tail.
  • the front region of the seat cushion 10, via which the seat cushion 10 is connected to the protective element 12, has a constriction 20 in the middle region. In this area is the step of the pants or the smallest distance of the inside of the thighs. In the direction of the protective element 12, the seat cushion 10 widens again. As a result, the position of the seat cushion is defined between the legs of the person wearing the seat cushion.
  • wings 21 made of soft fabric are preferably provided in the region of the constriction 20.
  • the wings 21 are particularly supple and flexible. They rest against the side of the thigh and point downwards when the seat cushion is worn.
  • the wings 21 are made of a polyamide-containing material.
  • the material is calendered to obtain a smooth, smooth surface.
  • Fabric line preferably runs down, i. with the seat cushion in the direction of the knees, in order to avoid friction in the movement that occurs when cycling, which would occur when a movement occurs against the line of the substance.
  • the wings 21 are of multilayer material, preferably a layer of polyurethane foam.
  • the layer coming into contact with the skin is always a calendered polyamide.
  • the seat cushion has a venous protection channel 24 in the crotch region 22.
  • the venous protection channel 24 extends from the seat surfaces 16 to the protective element 12, so that the in This area extending vein is not crushed even when sitting long on a bicycle saddle.
  • the venous canal is preferably 1 to 1.5 cm wide and has a depth of 2 to 4 mm.
  • a groove 26 is provided between the constriction 20 and the protective element 12.
  • the protective element 12 relative to the seat cushion 10 in the direction of the arrow 28 (Fig. 2) are moved. This in turn increases the wearing comfort.
  • An outer side 30 of the seat element may be provided with an adhesive coating.
  • the adhesive coating preferably has strips running perpendicular to the longitudinal direction of the seat element.
  • the seat pad is preferably perforated to enhance breathability.
  • the protective element 12 is perforated in order to avoid increased heating or a temperature jam in this area.
