Definitions
- the present invention relates to a bra cup structure.
- bra cup structure consisting of two layers of laminated foam enclosing between them a close containing a malleable material, in this case a liquid.
- the foam layers can be laminated to textile layers.
- the document WO 00/47068 also discloses a similar structure, improved by a new choice of malleable material to garnish the pocket.
- the present invention provides a bra cup structure comprising two layers of laminated foam enclosing between them, in their lower part, a bag containing a malleable material, characterized in that the malleable material is a silicone gel charged with polymeric microspheres and crosslinked, and in that the two layers of foam are viscoelastic foam.
- the Applicant has found that this particular combination of materials led to remarkable comfort properties including behavior very close to that of the flesh when pressing the structure under the fingers.
- these two materials have a shape memory: the viscoelastic foam has this shape memory by definition, and the crosslinked silicone gel, albeit malleable and thus accepting the deformations under the finger, by movement or conformation of the bust, also remembers the shape he has acquired in the mold in which he has cross-linked.
- the malleable material is arranged for its protection in a casing or pouch constituted by two polymeric films sealed to one another, for example polyurethane.
- Their thickness is advantageously very low so as not to induce an effect perceptible to the touch.
- the thickness is preferably less than 40 ⁇ m and more preferably of the order of 35 ⁇ m.
- the envelope avoids the destruction of the silicone gel which is relatively fragile, by breaking its chains.
- the malleable silicone gel material is advantageously crosslinked in its pocket.
- the malleable material has a density advantageously between 0.60 and 0.75 g / cm 3 .
- the bag filled with malleable material is inserted during a molding operation (thermoforming) between at least two layers of viscoelastic foam, the density of which is advantageously between 30 and 65 kg / m 3 and advantageously of the order of 50 kg / m 3 .
- the layers of viscoelastic foam are preferably laminated to a textile material, such as a polyester or polyamide mesh, before they are bonded together, this textile material being disposed towards the outside of the cup.
- a textile material such as a polyester or polyamide mesh
- the weight of silicone gel in the bag is very small, preferably less than 10 grams, advantageously substantially between 7 and 9 grams.
- the shape of the pocket depends on the size of the bra for which it is provided, but it is generally of elongated shape and more particularly substantially elliptical, with a major axis between 8 and 15 cm and a small axis between 4, 5 and 7 cm. Its average thickness is preferably between 2 and 3 mm.
- the standardized force of 25% depression in the bonnet of the invention, in the portion where the pocket is located is between about 2 and 3 N, and the standardized force 65% depression. at the same place is between about 15 and 30 N.
- a thermoformed cup structure 1 has, after thermoforming, a substantially hemispherical shape, having a depth H of the order of 70 to 75 mm. It is composed of two layers laminated visco-elastic foam 2 and 3 which enclose with each other, at their lower part, a bag of malleable material 4, formed by two polyurethane films 5, 6 welded to their edges and enclosing a gel of crosslinked silicone.
- the material pocket 4 has a substantially almond-shaped shape bounded by the dashed curved line which marks the upper edge 7 of the pocket 4; the pocket 4 essentially occupies the lower part of the cup, substantially below half of the cup and preferably on its lower third.
- the bag of material 4 has a generally weakly biconvex shape (substantially flat) but tapered at the edges, the shape of the pocket can change during the wear in contact with the chest and because of the movements.
- the thickest cup, at the thickest part of the pocket 4, is of the order of 10 to 14 mm (pocket and layers of foam).
- the layers of viscoelastic foam 2 and 3 are bonded, before assembly, to a fine textile layer 11 and 12, for example polyester, which facilitates their maintenance and handling, and avoids problems of removal of the material during the molding.
- the malleable material in one exemplary embodiment, is based on a two-component silicone gel RTV2 type (crosslinking at room temperature), for example of the Silbione® type marketed by Bluestar Silicones.
- the silicone gel has a dynamic viscosity before crosslinking which is for example between 6000 and 250,000 mPa.s at 25 ° C. Its density before introduction of the load is of the order of 1 to 1.5 g / cm 3 .
- a charge of polymeric microspheres is mixed with the silicone gel, for example microspheres of the Expancel® brand marketed by Akzo-Nobel.
- microspheres of acrylic-based polymer 20 to 80 ⁇ m in diameter, are mixed with the gel so that the density of the material after mixing is between 0.60 and 0.75 g / cm 3 .
- the microspheres form from 1 to 3% by weight of the mixture.
- the pouch 4 is manufactured in the following manner. Two thin films 5, 6 of polyurethane were previously assembled to form an almond-shaped envelope, with edges for example heat-sealed, and having an opening through which the mixture of the two components of the silicone gel is poured into the envelope. The opening is closed, the assembly is optionally placed in a metal mold having the definitive shape of the pocket and the whole is crosslinked by means of a heat treatment. We thus obtain a "pad” or pocket 4 of malleable material. The dimensions of the pocket depend on the size of the bra to which it is applied, but it advantageously measures between 8 and 15 cm along its major axis and between 4.5 and 7 cm along its minor axis, and its thickness, relatively uniform.
- the filling of the envelope is limited, preferably to less than 10 grams, so that the filled envelope is not hard but on the contrary remains flexible, foldable, and allows the momentary depression of a finger after crosslinking.
- an envelope 4 in the shape of an almond or ellipse of approximately 10.5 cm x 5.5 cm, with an average thickness of 2.6 mm, filled with 9 g of silicone gel, has been satisfactory .
- Foam layers 2, 3 in the non-thermoformed state have a thickness of about 6 mm .
- the outer foam layer 2, 11 is first thermoformed in a mold adapted to the shape of the cup, for example between 1 and 2 minutes at a temperature in the range of 160 to 190 ° C, for example 180 ° C, by adjusting the spacing of the two parts of the mold to allow compression / uniform molding of this layer 2, 11.
- the inner viscoelastic foam layer 2, 11 which has just been thermoformed is then laminated together to the second layer 3, 12 which does not has not been yet, for example by coating the two layers of foam facing glue, advantageously a water-based glue.
- foam facing glue advantageously a water-based glue.
- a mask temporary preventing bonding at the area that will later be occupied by the pocket and an adjacent area communicating with the edge of the layers.
- This mask may comprise a foam pad substantially occupying the surface that will occupy the pocket.
- the spacing between the male and female parts of the mold is adjusted to allow the compression of the two layers, and the thermoforming is performed for example 40s at the same temperature as before.
- the two layers 2 and 3 are glued to their interface 8, except in the zone where the pocket 4 must be inserted and in a passage allowing access to this zone.
- the mask and the foam cushion are removed.
- the combined thickness of the two layers 2, 3 thermoformed is between 2 and 3 mm.
- the pocket 4 and / or the zone between the foam layers 2 and 3 are inserted into the pocket and the pocket 4 is placed in this zone.

- the set can be cut to the exact shape that must be the cup, as shown in Figures 1 and 2 .
- thermoforming mold may for example be of the type described in the document GB 1,577,099 or the document FR 2,906,111 in the name of the Claimant.
- a compressed edge 9 has been formed on the lower half of the hemispherical cap which will allow the possible insertion of an armature and the connection of the cap with the substantially flat brass bra (by sewing, welding or gluing) and at the upper part of the cap an upper lug 10 which will be used for the connection with the bra strap.
- the border 9 may be formed either as shown in the plane of the base of the cup and facing outwards, or on the contrary in the extension of the cup, according to the preparation technique envisaged.
- cup structure 1 thermoformed, we can use it in a conventional bra, where it is assembled by conventional clothing.
- the structure is then advantageously covered on the outside by a decorative textile material, possibly a lace, while the inner surface 12 made of polyester can be used directly as the inner textile surface of the finished bra.
- the pocket 4 is arranged in locations between layers of viscoelastic foam laminated to textile layers and already having substantially the shape of the final bra (cups, separator, basque and back).
- the samples are prepared by marking the area to be measured, in the middle of the pocket area 4.
- the sample is first compressed twice to 75% of its thickness, at a speed of 4 mm / s and then left to rest for 6 minutes.

Description
La présente invention concerne une structure de bonnet de soutien-gorge.The present invention relates to a bra cup structure.
On connaît par le document
Quoique chacune de ces innovations vise à créer à la fois un soutien-gorge ayant un effet de « push-up », il reste pour les utilisatrices des progrès à faire en termes de confort, d'invisibilité, d'effet volumateur et remontant, et de liberté de mouvement. C'est le but que vise la présente invention.Although each of these innovations aims to create both a bra with a "push-up" effect, it remains for users to make progress in terms of comfort, invisibility, volumizing effect and upward, and freedom of movement. This is the purpose of the present invention.
Pour y parvenir, la présente invention propose une structure de bonnet de soutien-gorge comportant deux couches de mousse contrecollées enfermant entre elles, dans leur partie inférieure, une poche contenant un matériau malléable, caractérisée en ce que le matériau malléable est un gel de silicone chargé de microsphères polymériques et réticulé, et en ce que les deux couches de mousse sont en mousse visco-élastique.To achieve this, the present invention provides a bra cup structure comprising two layers of laminated foam enclosing between them, in their lower part, a bag containing a malleable material, characterized in that the malleable material is a silicone gel charged with polymeric microspheres and crosslinked, and in that the two layers of foam are viscoelastic foam.
La Demanderesse a constaté que cette combinaison particulière de matières conduisait à des propriétés de confort remarquables et notamment un comportement extrêmement proche de celui de la chair quand on presse la structure sous les doigts. De manière remarquable, ces deux matières présentent une mémoire de forme : la mousse visco-élastique présente cette mémoire de forme par définition, et le gel de silicone réticulé, quoique malléable et acceptant donc les déformations sous le doigt, par le mouvement ou la conformation du buste, se souvient aussi de la forme qu'il a acquise dans le moule dans lequel il a réticulé.The Applicant has found that this particular combination of materials led to remarkable comfort properties including behavior very close to that of the flesh when pressing the structure under the fingers. Remarkably, these two materials have a shape memory: the viscoelastic foam has this shape memory by definition, and the crosslinked silicone gel, albeit malleable and thus accepting the deformations under the finger, by movement or conformation of the bust, also remembers the shape he has acquired in the mold in which he has cross-linked.
Avantageusement, le matériau malléable est disposé pour sa protection dans une enveloppe ou poche constituée par deux films polymériques scellés l'un à l'autre, par exemple en polyuréthanne. Leur épaisseur est avantageusement très faible pour ne pas induire d'effet perceptible au toucher. L'épaisseur est de préférence inférieure à 40 µm et plus avantageusement de l'ordre de 35 µm. L'enveloppe évite la destruction du gel de silicone qui est relativement fragile, par cassure de ses chaînes. La matière malléable en gel de silicone est avantageusement réticulée dans sa poche.Advantageously, the malleable material is arranged for its protection in a casing or pouch constituted by two polymeric films sealed to one another, for example polyurethane. Their thickness is advantageously very low so as not to induce an effect perceptible to the touch. The thickness is preferably less than 40 μm and more preferably of the order of 35 μm. The envelope avoids the destruction of the silicone gel which is relatively fragile, by breaking its chains. The malleable silicone gel material is advantageously crosslinked in its pocket.
La matière malléable a une masse volumique avantageusement comprise entre 0,60 et 0,75 g/cm3.The malleable material has a density advantageously between 0.60 and 0.75 g / cm 3 .
La poche emplie de matière malléable est insérée lors d'une opération de moulage (thermoformage) entre au moins deux couches de mousse visco-élastique, dont la masse volumique est avantageusement comprise entre 30 et 65 kg/m3 et avantageusement de l'ordre de 50 kg/m3.The bag filled with malleable material is inserted during a molding operation (thermoforming) between at least two layers of viscoelastic foam, the density of which is advantageously between 30 and 65 kg / m 3 and advantageously of the order of 50 kg / m 3 .
Les couches de mousse visco-élastique sont de préférence contrecollées à une matière textile, telle qu'une maille de polyester ou de polyamide, préalablement à leur contrecollage entre elles, cette matière textile étant disposée vers l'extérieur du bonnet.The layers of viscoelastic foam are preferably laminated to a textile material, such as a polyester or polyamide mesh, before they are bonded together, this textile material being disposed towards the outside of the cup.
Avantageusement, le poids de gel de silicone dans la poche est très faible, de préférence moins de 10 grammes, avantageusement sensiblement entre 7 et 9 grammes.Advantageously, the weight of silicone gel in the bag is very small, preferably less than 10 grams, advantageously substantially between 7 and 9 grams.
La forme de la poche dépend de la taille du soutien-gorge pour lequel elle est prévue, mais elle est généralement de forme allongée et plus particulièrement sensiblement elliptique, avec un grand axe compris entre 8 et 15 cm et un petit axe compris entre 4,5 et 7 cm. Son épaisseur moyenne est de préférence comprise entre 2 et 3 mm.The shape of the pocket depends on the size of the bra for which it is provided, but it is generally of elongated shape and more particularly substantially elliptical, with a major axis between 8 and 15 cm and a small axis between 4, 5 and 7 cm. Its average thickness is preferably between 2 and 3 mm.
De manière particulièrement avantageuse, la force normalisée d'enfoncement à 25% dans le bonnet de l'invention, dans la partie où se situe la poche, est comprise entre environ 2 et 3 N, et la force normalisée d'enfoncement à 65% au même endroit est comprise entre environ 15 et 30 N.Particularly advantageously, the standardized force of 25% depression in the bonnet of the invention, in the portion where the pocket is located, is between about 2 and 3 N, and the standardized force 65% depression. at the same place is between about 15 and 30 N.

Une structure de bonnet thermoformée 1 présente, après thermoformage, une forme sensiblement hémisphérique, présentant une profondeur H de l'ordre de 70 à 75 mm. Elle est composée de deux couches contrecollées de mousse visco-élastique 2 et 3 qui enferment entre elles, à leur partie inférieure, une poche de matière malléable 4, formée par deux films de polyuréthanne 5, 6 soudés sur leurs bords et enfermant un gel de silicone réticulé. Comme on le voit sur la
La matière malléable, dans un exemple de réalisation, est à base d'un gel de silicone bicomposant de type RTV2 (réticulant à la température ambiante), par exemple du type Silbione® commercialisé par la société Bluestar Silicones. Le gel de silicone a une viscosité dynamique avant réticulation qui est par exemple comprise entre 6000 et 250 000 mPa.s à 25°C. Sa masse volumique avant introduction de la charge est de l'ordre de 1 à 1,5 g/cm3. Une charge de microsphères polymériques est mélangée au gel de silicone, par exemple des microsphères de la marque Expancel® commercialisées par la société Akzo-Nobel. Ces microsphères expansées de polymère à base acrylique, de 20 à 80 µm de diamètre, sont mélangées au gel de manière que la masse volumique de la matière après mélange soit comprise entre 0,60 et 0,75 g/cm3. Dans un exemple de réalisation, les microsphères forment de 1 à 3% en poids du mélange.The malleable material, in one exemplary embodiment, is based on a two-component silicone gel RTV2 type (crosslinking at room temperature), for example of the Silbione® type marketed by Bluestar Silicones. The silicone gel has a dynamic viscosity before crosslinking which is for example between 6000 and 250,000 mPa.s at 25 ° C. Its density before introduction of the load is of the order of 1 to 1.5 g / cm 3 . A charge of polymeric microspheres is mixed with the silicone gel, for example microspheres of the Expancel® brand marketed by Akzo-Nobel. These expanded microspheres of acrylic-based polymer, 20 to 80 μm in diameter, are mixed with the gel so that the density of the material after mixing is between 0.60 and 0.75 g / cm 3 . In one exemplary embodiment, the microspheres form from 1 to 3% by weight of the mixture.
La poche 4 est fabriquée de la manière suivante. Deux films minces 5, 6 de polyuréthanne ont préalablement été assemblés pour former une enveloppe en forme d'amande, à bords par exemple thermosoudés, et présentant une ouverture par laquelle on verse le mélange des deux composants du gel de silicone dans l'enveloppe. On ferme l'ouverture, on place l'ensemble éventuellement dans un moule métallique ayant la forme définitive de la poche et on réticule l'ensemble grâce à un traitement thermique. On obtient donc un « pad » ou poche 4 de matière malléable. Les dimensions de la poche dépendent de la taille du soutien-gorge auquel elle est appliquée, mais elle mesure avantageusement entre 8 et 15 cm selon son grand axe et entre 4,5 et 7 cm selon son petit axe, et son épaisseur, relativement uniforme en dehors des bords, est comprise entre 1,5 et 5 mm, et de préférence, entre 2 et 3 mm. Selon l'invention, le remplissage de l'enveloppe est limité, de préférence à moins de 10 grammes, de manière que l'enveloppe remplie ne soit pas dure mais au contraire reste souple, pliable, et permette l'enfoncement momentané d'un doigt après réticulation. En pratique, une enveloppe 4 en forme d'amande ou d'ellipse d'environ 10,5 cm x 5,5cm, d'une épaisseur moyenne de 2,6 mm, remplie de 9 g de gel de silicone, a donné satisfaction.The
On va décrire maintenant la fabrication du bonnet à partir des couches de mousse visco-élastiques 2,3 contrecollées à leur couche textile 11, 12. Les couches de mousse 2, 3 à l'état non thermoformé ont une épaisseur d'environ 6 mm.We will now describe the manufacture of the cup from
Pour la fabrication de la structure de bonnet 1, on commence par thermoformer la couche de mousse extérieure 2, 11, dans un moule adapté à la forme du bonnet, par exemple entre 1 et 2 minutes à une température de l'ordre de 160 à 190°C, par exemple 180°C, en réglant l'écartement des deux parties du moule pour permettre une compression/moulage uniforme de cette couche 2, 11.For the manufacture of the cup structure 1, the
Dans une seconde étape qui peut être pratiquée dans le même moule ou dans un moule semblable, on vient contrecoller ensemble la couche de mousse visco-élastique intérieure 2, 11 qui vient d'être thermoformée à la seconde couche 3, 12 qui ne l'a pas été encore, par exemple en enduisant les deux couches de mousse en regard de colle, avantageusement une colle à base aqueuse. On place entre les deux faces à contrecoller un masque provisoire empêchant le collage au niveau de la zone qui devra plus tard être occupée par la poche et une zone adjacente communiquant avec le bord des couches. Ce masque peut comprendre un coussinet de mousse occupant sensiblement la surface qu'occupera la poche. L'espacement entre les parties mâle et femelle du moule est réglé pour permettre la compression des deux couches, et le thermoformage est effectué par exemple 40s à la même température que précédemment. À la suite de cette étape, les deux couches 2 et 3 sont collées à leur interface 8, sauf dans la zone où doit s'insérer la poche 4 et dans un passage permettant l'accès à cette zone. Le masque et le coussin de mousse sont retirés. L'épaisseur combinée des deux couches 2, 3 thermoformées est comprise entre 2 et 3 mm.In a second step which can be performed in the same mold or in a similar mold, the inner
Dans une troisième étape, on encolle la poche 4 et/ou la zone entre les couches de mousse 2 et 3 où elle s'insère, et on place dans cette zone la poche 4. On encolle aussi le passage laissé ouvert. La fixation est assurée par la chaleur et la pression dans le moule, par exemple pendant 40s à 180°C.In a third step, the
L'ensemble peut être découpé à la forme exacte que doit avoir le bonnet, telle que représenté aux
Le moule de thermoformage peut être par exemple du type décrit dans le document
Lors du thermoformage de la structure 1, on a formé une bordure comprimée 9 sur la moitié inférieure du bonnet hémisphérique qui permettra l'insertion éventuelle d'une armature et la liaison du bonnet avec la basque sensiblement plane de soutien-gorge (par couture, soudure ou collage) et à la partie haute du bonnet une patte supérieure 10 qui servira à la liaison avec la bretelle de soutien-gorge. La bordure 9 peut être formée soit comme représenté dans le plan de la base du bonnet et tournée vers l'extérieur, soit au contraire dans le prolongement du bonnet, selon la technique de confection envisagée.During the thermoforming of the structure 1, a
Une fois la structure de bonnet 1 thermoformée, on peut utiliser celle-ci dans un soutien-gorge classique, où elle est assemblée par confection classique. La structure est alors avantageusement couverte sur le côté extérieur par une matière textile décorative, éventuellement une dentelle, tandis que la surface intérieure 12 en polyester peut servir directement de surface textile intérieure du soutien-gorge fini.Once the cup structure 1 thermoformed, we can use it in a conventional bra, where it is assembled by conventional clothing. The structure is then advantageously covered on the outside by a decorative textile material, possibly a lace, while the
On pourrait également selon un principe qui ne sort pas de l'invention fabriquer directement par thermoformage l'ensemble du soutien-gorge, selon des techniques connues pour les soutiens-gorge multicouches. Dans ce cas, la poche 4 est disposée dans des emplacements ménagés entre des couches de mousse visco-élastique contrecollées à des couches textiles et présentant déjà sensiblement la forme du soutien-gorge final (bonnets, séparateur, basque et dos).One could also according to a principle that does not go beyond the invention manufacture directly by thermoforming the entire bra, according to known techniques for multilayer bras. In this case, the
On a mené diverses expérimentations pour déterminer les paramètres essentiels qui conduisaient à un résultat jugé particulièrement satisfaisant par les utilisatrices. On a mesuré sur différents échantillons la force d'enfoncement pour des compressions de 25% et de 65% selon une procédure normalisée par la norme ASTM D3574-95 mais adaptée à l'objet de l'invention, de manière à permettre la réalisation des tests sur les produits finis (à savoir le bonnet de soutien-gorge). On a donc essentiellement adapté la taille des plateaux de la machine dynamométrique de test, de marque Zwick 22.5 avec un capteur de forces de 1000 N, à savoir un plateau bas carré perforé de 150 mm x 150 mm et un plateau haut circulaire de 45 mm de diamètre.Various experiments were carried out to determine the essential parameters which led to a result judged particularly satisfactory by the users. The penetration force for 25% and 65% compression was measured on different samples according to a procedure standardized by ASTM D3574-95 but adapted to the subject of the invention, so as to enable the realization of tests on finished products (ie the bra cup). The size of the Zwick 22.5 test dynamometer machines with a force sensor of 1000 N, namely a 150 mm x 150 mm perforated square bottom plate and a 45 mm high circular plate, were therefore essentially adapted. of diameter.
Les échantillons sont préparés en marquant la zone à mesurer, au milieu de la zone de la poche 4. L'échantillon est d'abord comprimé deux fois jusqu'à 75% de son épaisseur, à une vitesse de 4 mm/s puis laissé à reposer 6 minutes. Les mesures de résistance à la compression IFD (en anglais « indentation force deflection ») à 25% et 65% sont faites en comprimant l'échantillon à une vitesse de 0,85 mm/s sur 25% puis 65% de son épaisseur, la force étant mesurée après un repos de 60s.The samples are prepared by marking the area to be measured, in the middle of the
Les résultats de 23 mesures sont reportés dans le tableau annexé où l'on a mis en gras les tests pratiqués sur des bonnets préparés selon l'invention en juxtaposant des couches de mousse visco-élastique et une poche de gel de silicone, avec diverses variations quant à la nature du gel de silicone, son poids, et l'épaisseur du film de polyuréthanne. La mousse est inchangée dans ces échantillons avec une densité de 50 kg/m3. Les autres tests ont été faits sur des bonnets du commerce de différentes structures censées apporter déjà un confort et un maintien à la poitrine.The results of 23 measurements are reported in the attached table where the tests carried out on cups prepared according to the invention were made bold by juxtaposing layers of viscoelastic foam and a bag of silicone gel, with various variations. as to the nature of the silicone gel, its weight, and the thickness of the polyurethane film. The foam is unchanged in these samples with a density of 50 kg / m 3 . The other tests were made on commercial hats of different structures supposed to bring already a comfort and a maintenance in the chest.
On a confronté ces résultats à des tests de toucher et de porter dont il est ressorti que les structures conformes à l'invention étaient perçues de manière nettement plus favorables que les autres, à l'exception de l'échantillon 22 jugé trop dur, probablement en raison d'une combinaison excessive de poids et d'épaisseur de poche de silicone et d'épaisseur de film de polyuréthanne, et dans une moindre mesure, l'échantillon 19 aussi avec une épaisseur de 40 µm de film de polyuréthanne. En définitive, il est apparu que les échantillons satisfaisants de l'invention présentent la propriété remarquable d'avoir une mesure d'IFD à 25% comprise sensiblement entre 2 et 3 N et une mesure d'IFD à 65 % comprise sensiblement entre 15 et 30 N pour des bonnets de taille moyenne. Cette combinaison donne un moelleux jugé remarquable au toucher et au porter, et permet d'obtenir un bonnet à haut pouvoir d'adaptation, s'ajustant parfaitement à la forme et à la taille particulière du sein pour procurer une poitrine ronde et remontée. Ce confort dure tout au long d'une journée de porter et laisse une grande liberté de mouvements : la poche de silicone peut se déformer et s'adapter à la poitrine en mouvement, en comblant les espaces creux en permanence.These results were tested by touch and wear tests which revealed that the structures according to the invention were perceived in a much more favorable manner than the others, with the exception of the sample 22 which was considered too hard, probably due to an excessive combination of weight and pocket thickness of silicone and polyurethane film thickness, and to a lesser extent, sample 19 also with a thickness of 40 μm of polyurethane film. Finally, it has been found that the satisfactory samples of the invention have the remarkable property of having a 25% IFD measurement substantially between 2 and 3 N and a 65% IFD measurement of substantially between 15 and 25%. 30 N for cups of average size. This combination gives a soft felt remarkable to the touch and wear, and provides a cap with high adaptability, adjusting perfectly to the shape and the particular size of the breast to provide a round chest and reassembled. This comfort lasts throughout a day wearing and allows great freedom of movement: the silicone pocket can deform and adapt to the chest in motion, filling hollow spaces permanently.
