Description

La présente invention se rapporte au domaine de l'habillement et plus particulièrement à un article d'habillement assurant le maintien de la poitrine.The present invention relates to the field of clothing and more particularly to an article of clothing ensuring the maintenance of the chest.

Elle a plus particulièrement pour objet en tant que produit industriel nouveau, un bustier transformable constitué en plusieurs parties qui permettent après assemblage de réaliser différentes combinaisons de couleur, de dessins ou de forme, au choix de la personne qui les porte.It has more particularly as a new industrial product, a bustier transformable consisting of several parts which allow after assembly to achieve different combinations of color, designs or shape, depending on the person who wears them.

Ainsi, l'usagère peut en fonction des pièces qui forment le bustier, réaliser des compositions, des assemblages de couleurs, des motifs décoratifs ou des éléments esthétiques variés, ce qui présente l'avantage de pouvoir constituer par interchangeabilité des parties, un grand nombre de toilettes.Thus, the user can, depending on the pieces that form the bustier, make compositions, color combinations, decorative patterns or elements varied aesthetics, which has the advantage of being able to constitute by interchangeability of parts, a large number of toilets.

On sait cependant que les éléments indépendants adhésifs qui sont moulés ou formés ne sont pas confortables en raison de leur poids, et qu'ils sont visibles sous les vêtements légers ou moulants. C'est ainsi que la demande de brevet internationale WO 80/00121 décrit un élément indépendant pour chaque sein, ayant une face complètement ou partiellement adhésive, conçu en tissu ou en tissu non tissé, constitué par une partie large devant être placée sous ou sur le côté du sein ainsi qu'une bretelle devant adhérer sur la partie arrière de l'épaule ou de la nuque, ladite partie large pouvant éventuellement comporter un prolongement adhérant sur la moitié supérieure de la surface du sein.However, it is known that the independent adhesive elements which are molded or formed do not are not comfortable due to their weight, and are visible under clothing light or tight. This is how the international patent application WO 80/00121 describes an independent element for each breast, having one face completely or partially adhesive, made of fabric or nonwoven fabric, consisting of a part wide to be placed under or on the side of the breast as well as a strap to adhere on the rear part of the shoulder or the nape of the neck, said wide part possibly possibly include an extension adhering to the upper half of the breast surface.

La solution technique préconisée dans cette demande de brevet internationale n'est guère pratique, et son utilisation soulève des difficultés car il s'agit de faire adhérer un élément plan allongé sur la surface courbe de la peau. The technical solution recommended in this international patent application is not hardly practical, and its use raises difficulties because it is a question of making adhere a flat element lying on the curved surface of the skin.

C'est pourquoi il est apparu nécessaire de trouver une solution technique nouvelle au problème posé par la possibilité de changer les bonnets d'un soutien-gorge pour réaliser une nouvelle combinaison de couleurs, ou un nouvel assemblage de formes, ou bien un arrangement nouveau de dispositions esthétiques.This is why it appeared necessary to find a new technical solution to the problem posed by the possibility of changing the cups of a bra to achieve a new color combination, or a new combination of shapes, or a new arrangement of aesthetic arrangements.

Il est important également que le bustier ainsi réalisé soit d'une réalisation facile, en différents tissus et qu'il puisse s'adapter aux différents besoins de la mode.It is also important that the bustier thus produced is easy to make, in different fabrics and that it can adapt to different fashion needs.

Ce problème se trouve résolu selon le dispositif selon l'invention, constitué par deux pièces de tissu indépendantes interposées dans chacun des bonnets, et qui contribuent à procurer à chacun de ces bonnets l'effet esthétique désiré.This problem is solved according to the device according to the invention, consisting of two independent pieces of fabric interposed in each of the cups, and which contribute to give each of these hats the desired aesthetic effect.

Ainsi, il est possible de glisser ou d'insérer dans chacun des bonnets d'un soutien-gorge une portion conique souple, partiellement adhésive et conférant aux bonnets de soutien-gorge un autre aspect ou une nouvelle disposition.Thus, it is possible to slide or insert into each of the cups of a bra a flexible conical portion, partially adhesive and giving the bra cups another aspect or a new provision.

L'invention consiste donc en un bustier dans lequel on a disposé à l'intérieur ou à l'extérieur des bonnets une ou plusieurs pièces en forme de coupe, adhérentes ou non adhérentes, débordantes ou non débordantes par rapport aux bonnets, et présentant des coloris ou des motifs décoratifs variés, de façon à ce que le soutien-gorge ainsi réalisé présente un aspect ou un coloris distinct.The invention therefore consists of a bustier in which one has placed inside or at the outside of the cups one or more cup-shaped pieces, adherent or not adherent, overflowing or not overflowing with respect to the cups, and having various colors or decorative patterns, so that the bra thus produced has a distinct appearance or color.

C'est ainsi qu'il sera possible que la partie en forme de coupe présente un motif comportant des couleurs différentes, des rayures différentes, des poids ou des tailles différentes, ou même des motifs publicitaires différents ou semblables.This is how it will be possible for the cup-shaped part to have a pattern with different colors, different stripes, weights, or sizes different, or even different or similar advertising motives.

C'est ainsi qu'il sera possible de pourvoir dans la partie haute d'un maillot de bain en une ou deux pièces, de telles pièces, de façon à ce que le maillot de bain présente par transparence un autre coloris ou bien que chacun des bonnets du soutien-gorge présente un coloris ou un dessin différent. Thus it will be possible to provide in the upper part of a swimsuit in one or two pieces, such pieces, so that the swimsuit presents by transparency another color or that each of the cups of the bra has a different color or design.

Dans le cas d'un soutien-gorge ou d'un bustier, il sera possible, en insérant une ou deux parties en forme de coupe présentant une surface imitant la dentelle, de transformer ledit soutien-gorge ou bustier en un article d'habillement de présentation plus raffinée, surtout en faisant en sorte que les pièces en forme de coupe débordent et soient visibles à la partie supérieure des bonnets.In the case of a bra or bustier, it will be possible, by inserting one or two cup-shaped parts having a lace-like surface, transforming said bra or bustier in a more refined item of clothing, especially by ensuring that the cup-shaped parts protrude and are visible at the top of the cups.

Plus précisément, l'invention se définit comme constituée par un soutien-gorge ou un bustier transformable constitué par au moins une bande de tissu circulaire sur laquelle viennent se fixer les deux bonnets et, de part et d'autre, une bande de tissu élargie entourant et surmontant de chaque côté les bonnets, et même d'un dispositif de fixation caractérisé en ce qu'on assujettit dans chaque bonnet une pièce en forme de coupe, de dimensions exactement adaptées au bonnet auquel elle s'applique, pouvant déborder de chaque bonnet et présentant lesdits éléments décoratifs, esthétiques ou publicitaires.More specifically, the invention is defined as consisting of a bra or a transformable bustier consisting of at least one strip of circular fabric on which attach the two cups and, on both sides, an enlarged strip of fabric surrounding and surmounting on each side the cups, and even a fixing device characterized in that a cup-shaped part is fixed in each cup, dimensions exactly adapted to the hat to which it applies, which may exceed each hat and having said decorative, aesthetic or advertising elements.

Dans un mode d'exécution particulier de l'invention, la pièce en forme de coupe pourra, dans la portion en contact avec la peau de l'utilisatrice, comporter une pièce de tissu adhésif ou non, enduite ou imprégnée d'un principe actif destiné à améliorer les caractéristiques intrinsèques du buste.
C'est ainsi qu'il sera possible de disposer dans la pièce en forme de coupe un dispositif adhésif imprégné ou enduit d'une préparation destinée à améliorer les qualités du buste. On pourra citer à cet égard les extraits de Kigelia africana seuls ou associés à d'autres principes actifs connus pour améliorer le volume du buste.In a particular embodiment of the invention, the cup-shaped part may, in the portion in contact with the wearer's skin, include a piece of adhesive or non-adhesive fabric, coated or impregnated with an active principle intended to improve the intrinsic characteristics of the bust.
Thus it will be possible to have in the cup-shaped part an adhesive device impregnated or coated with a preparation intended to improve the qualities of the bust. Mention may be made in this regard of extracts of Kigelia africana alone or in combination with other active ingredients known to improve the volume of the bust.

Les parties en forme de coupe sont de préférence en étoffe tissée ou en tissu non tissé, élastiquement extensible. ()n obtient par exemple un matériau non tissé qui permet d'assurer le soutien des seins du fait de la rigidité verticale et qui permet de modeler ce matériau tout en facilitant la mise en place des bonnets du soutien-gorge.The cup-shaped parts are preferably made of woven fabric or non-woven fabric, elastically stretchy. () n obtains for example a nonwoven material which allows to provide breast support due to the vertical rigidity and which makes it possible to shape this material while facilitating the placement of the cups of the bra.

Le support non tissé peut être réalisé en fibres synthétiques ou en matériau cellulosique. On peut à cet égard mentionner les fibres de polypropylène, les fibres de polyamide, les fibres de polyester, le carton ou le papier. The non-woven support can be made of synthetic fibers or of cellulose material. Mention may be made in this regard of polypropylene fibers, polyamide fibers, polyester fibers, cardboard or paper.

Pour ne pas gêner la transpiration, il est important que la partie en forme de coupe ne soit pas totalement adhérente et éventuellement soit poreuse ou microporeuse. A cette fin, l'aération sera réalisée soit par des microperforations, soit encore par des stries ou des pointillés perforés.In order not to interfere with perspiration, it is important that the cup-shaped part does not either not fully adherent and possibly either porous or microporous. At this at the end, the aeration will be achieved either by microperforations, or again by streaks or perforated dotted lines.

Lorsqu'on place dans ces parties un pansement ou une bande adhésive, celui-ci ou celle-ci sera avantageusement revêtue d'une feuille de protection adhésive paraffinée ou siliconée. De préférence, la feuille de protection sera du papier siliconé. Afin d'en faciliter l'utilisation, la feuille de protection comprendra de préférence deux portions enlevables séparément pour garantir l'adhésivité de la bande adhésive sur la partie correspondante du soutien-gorge et sa mise en contact aisée avec l'épiderme de l'utilisatrice.When a dressing or an adhesive band is placed in these parts, this or this advantageously be coated with a waxed protective protective sheet or silicone. Preferably, the protective sheet will be silicone paper. In order to facilitate use, the protective sheet will preferably include two portions can be removed separately to guarantee the adhesiveness of the adhesive strip on the part corresponding bra and its easy contact with the epidermis of the user.

La partie en forme de coupe selon l'invention n'a pas besoin d'être assujettie fermement à l'intérieur du bonnet du soutien-gorge où elle est disposée. Elle pourra être simplement emboítée ou venir reposer sur le pourtour du bonnet du soutien-gorge ou, si celui-ci comporte une armature, venir reposer par un rebord sur celle-ci. De cette façon, son insertion ou son remplacement se feront simplement par glissement. Il est possible cependant de prévoir une fixation plus permanente en effectuant quelques points de couture pour maintenir cette pièce en place sans que son extraction soit difficile.The cup-shaped part according to the invention does not need to be firmly secured inside the bra cup where it is placed. It could be simply fitted or come to rest on the circumference of the bra cup or, if it has a frame, come to rest by a ledge thereon. In this way, its insertion or replacement will be done simply by sliding. It is possible however, provide for a more permanent fixation by making a few points of seam to hold this piece in place without its extraction being difficult.

Selon un mode d'exécution particulier de l'invention figuré à la figure 1, les pièces en forme de coupe présentent une structure conique (1) terminée par un léger rebord (2) venant s'ajuster sur le rebord de plus grande épaisseur du bonnet (3) du soutien-gorge (4).
Les pièces en forme de coupe peuvent être opaques et le bonnet du soutien-gorge est transparent ou bien le bonnet du soutien-gorge sera simplement diaphane et laissera voir les motifs décoratifs ou les coloris des pièces en forme de coupe.According to a particular embodiment of the invention shown in Figure 1, the cup-shaped parts have a conical structure (1) terminated by a slight rim (2) which adjusts to the rim of greater thickness of the cup (3) of the bra (4).
The cup-shaped pieces can be opaque and the bra cup is transparent or the bra cup will be simply diaphanous and will reveal the decorative patterns or the colors of the cup-shaped pieces.

Dans un autre mode d'exécution de l'invention figuré à la figure 2, les pièces en forme de coupe (1) (1') peuvent venir s'assujettir à l'intérieur des bonnets (3) (3') et les recouvrir à l'intérieur complètement ou partiellement. Dans ce cas, des bretelles (9) (9') peuvent être fixées solidaires des pièces en forme de coupe.In another embodiment of the invention shown in Figure 2, the shaped parts cutting (1) (1 ') can be secured inside the cups (3) (3') and cover the interior completely or partially. In this case, suspenders (9) (9 ') can be fixed integral with cup-shaped parts.

La figure 3 montre une vue d'ensemble de la pièce d'habillement selon l'invention, dans laquelle les éléments en forme de coupe (1) et (1') débordent des bonnets (4) (4') du soutien-gorge. Le soutien-gorge comporte d'une manière traditionnelle une bande de tissu mince de support (5) et deux pièces de tissu élargies supportant des bretelles (7) et (7').
Les pièces (1) et (1') ici figurées comportent des stries de couleur qui soit sont visibles par transparence lorsque le tissu du bonnet est en un textile transparent, soit sont visibles du fait du débordement par rapport à la surface du bonnet lorsque celui-ci est en un textile opaque ou transparent.Figure 3 shows an overview of the piece of clothing according to the invention, in which the cup-shaped elements (1) and (1 ') project beyond the cups (4) (4') of the bra . The bra traditionally comprises a strip of thin support fabric (5) and two widened pieces of fabric supporting suspenders (7) and (7 ').
The parts (1) and (1 ') shown here have colored streaks which are either visible by transparency when the fabric of the hat is made of a transparent fabric, or are visible due to the overflow relative to the surface of the hat when that -this is in an opaque or transparent textile.

La figure 4 montre un autre mode de réalisation de l'article d'habillement selon l'invention dans lequel les pièces en forme de coupe comportent en outre des bretelles (7) (7'). Dans un tel cas, les pièces en forme de coupe (1) (1') seront assujetties aux bonnets (4) (4') pour éviter tout déplacement aux bonnets, par un dispositif de fixation, comme par exemple par « scratchage ». L'ensemble comporte en outre la bande de tissu élargie (6) (6') entourant et surmontant de chaque côté les bonnets.
La figure 5 montre un autre mode de réalisation du soutien-gorge de l'invention. Dans ce mode de réalisation, on a disposé à l'intérieur des bonnets de soutien-gorge en tissu transparent (4) (4') une pièce en forme de coupe (1) (1') présentant des incrustations de dentelle adhérant complètement ou partiellement sur la pièce auxiliaire et débordant légèrement du bonnet du soutien-gorge sur le côté ou à la partie supérieure.
Ainsi, il est possible de transformer un soutien-gorge dont les bonnets sont en tissu uni en une pièce d'habillement à apparence plus luxueuse.FIG. 4 shows another embodiment of the article of clothing according to the invention in which the cup-shaped parts also include straps (7) (7 '). In such a case, the cup-shaped parts (1) (1 ') will be subjected to the cups (4) (4') to avoid any displacement of the cups, by a fixing device, such as for example by "scratching". The assembly further includes the enlarged fabric strip (6) (6 ') surrounding and surmounting on each side the cups.
Figure 5 shows another embodiment of the bra of the invention. In this embodiment, inside the bra cups of transparent fabric (4) (4 ′), a cup-shaped piece (1) (1 ′) having lace inlays adhering completely or partially on the auxiliary piece and slightly protruding from the bra cup on the side or at the top.
Thus, it is possible to transform a bra whose cups are made of plain fabric into a piece of clothing with a more luxurious appearance.

La figure 6 montre un autre mode de réalisation de l'invention dans lequel les pièces en forme de coupe ( 1 ) (1') sont ajustées exactement soit aux dimensions du bonnet (4) (4'), de manière à ne pas laisser apparaítre à l'extérieur - ou d'une manière extrêmement limitée - les motifs, notamment de dentelle, portés par la pièce en forme de coupe (1), soit d'une manière partielle en ne recouvrant que le bord supérieur du bonnet. A cet effet, une pièce de tissu (8) chevauche le bonnet (4) et se rabat sur la pièce en forme de coupe (1) pour en assurer la solidarisation, par exemple à l'aide d'une petite pression.FIG. 6 shows another embodiment of the invention in which the pieces in cup shape (1) (1 ') are adjusted exactly either to the dimensions of the cup (4) (4'), so as not to let it appear outside - or in an extremely limited - the patterns, in particular of lace, worn by the cup-shaped part (1), or in a partial way by covering only the upper edge of the cap. In this Indeed, a piece of fabric (8) overlaps the cap (4) and folds over the piece in the form of cut (1) to secure it, for example using a small pressure.

L'invention n'est pas limitée aux caractéristiques montrées dans ces quelques exemples et elle englobe toutes les variations évidentes qui peuvent être réalisées au cours de l'exécution de l'invention.
Elle s'applique aussi bien à la confection de soutiens-gorge qu'à la réalisation de maillots de bain en une ou deux pièces. L'objectif à réaliser est de permettre à l'utilisatrice de modifier à volonté les coloris, les dessins ou les motifs portés par cette pièce d'habillement, ou d'assurer à l'utilisatrice l'effet dermatologique ou cosmétique désiré.The invention is not limited to the characteristics shown in these few examples and it encompasses all the obvious variations which may be made during the execution of the invention.
It applies as well to the making of bras as to the realization of swimsuits in one or two pieces. The objective to be achieved is to allow the user to modify at will the colors, designs or patterns worn by this piece of clothing, or to provide the user with the desired dermatological or cosmetic effect.
