Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a bra easy to pass, remove and adjust and providing good support to the chest of the user.
  • Bras are known including a closure system on the bust of the user placed in the middle of the chest or on one or two side (s) in the armpits.
  • These closure systems are difficult to implement and dispose properly because it is necessary to exert a significant manual pressure to cooperate the fasteners of the closure system, sometimes at the risk of pinching the skin when it comes in particular to a zipper.
  • these bras include conventional shoulder straps or anterior and posterior panels (s) covering the bust to the shoulders so that the movements of the shoulders are not facilitated since the latter tend to be brought back in their initial position by said straps.
  • the closure system when disposed on the chest or side as mentioned above hinders the respiratory movements of the user and can also cause injuries by friction on the skin. These bras are narrow, the user is struggling to pass both arms.
  • the present invention overcomes all or part of the aforementioned problems in that it relates to a bra having opposite posterior and anterior surfaces comprising an anterior panel intended in operation to cover at least part of the chest and lined at least partially according to its lower edge by a main band having opposite upper and lower faces and first and second ends extending on said rear or front face, said bra comprising means for supporting the front panel to the shoulders.
  • said bra comprises first and second auxiliary strips each having first and second ends, the first ends of said first and second auxiliary strips are secured to, capable of being secured to, or in line respectively with, the first and second ends.
  • second ends of the main band, the second ends of the first and second auxiliary strips extend on the anterior or posterior face and comprise attachment means able to cooperate together for their removable closure or with fastening means arranged on the band main for their removable attachment on the said main band.
  • the bra according to the invention also comprises means for receiving and sliding auxiliary strips arranged on said rear face so as to allow the superposition and sliding of the auxiliary strips relative to the main band.
  • the user via the main band in connection with the first and second auxiliary strips by sliding through said means for receiving and sliding, the user easily adjusts the pressure exerted by said bra on both his back and chest, while easily adapting to his bust.
  • the main band and the first and second auxiliary bands together almost twice surround the wearer's torso, unlike the prior art tie bands which surround the bust only once, which allows the bust to be easily enlarged. perimeter of the bra so that it conforms to the perimeter of the bust of the user.
  • the bra according to the invention is on the bust of the user easily, such as a tank top. It should be noted that once the user's head has passed through said bra, the user only has to arrange the main band and the auxiliary bands on his chest.
  • the attachment means may be of any type of means known to those skilled in the art, such as magnets, staples, buckles / hooks, etc.
  • the main band is intended in operation to pass at least partially under the chest.
  • the first and second auxiliary strips have a width less than or equal to, preferably less than, the width of the main band. This arrangement avoids, when the first and second auxiliary strips are superimposed on the main band, to exert pressure on the bust too large, but also promotes the evacuation of heat and perspiration.
  • fastening means supported by the second ends of the first and second auxiliary strips cooperate in superimposed on the upper face of the main band and are not in direct contact with the skin thus avoiding any friction or pinching likely to generated by said means.
  • the first and second ends of the main band extend on the rear face and the second ends of the first and second auxiliary strips extend on the anterior face so that said attachment means cooperate together for their removable closure or with fastening means disposed on the main band for their removable attachment on said main band.
  • the user actuates the attachment means together or with others supported on the main band, on the anterior face of the bra and therefore at the level of the bust. This arrangement facilitates the closure of the bra on the chest, especially for large breasts.
  • Said receiving and sliding means allow a superposition of the main band with the first and second auxiliary bands without crossing which could cause discomfort or injury to the user.
  • said bra comprises means for supporting the anterior panel to the shoulders which are in the form of left and right shoulder straps extending from the front panel to pass over the left and right shoulders respectively, in operation, and secured to or extending on a rear panel forming part of the bra and covering at least partially the back of the user, or secured to or extending on said main band.
  • the receiving and sliding means comprise at least one loop.
  • said loop allows the passage and sliding of the second ends of the auxiliary strips and their guidance to the anterior face of the bra by superimposing on the main band.
  • the receiving and sliding means comprise at least one opening in the main band for the passage of the second end of the first auxiliary band from the lower face to the upper face of the main band and its sliding through said opening.
  • the main band may include one or more sets of two apertures each forming a loop through which the first or second auxiliary band may pass.
  • the one or more sets then form one or more means for guiding and joining the main band with the first and / or the second auxiliary band.
