Next, an embodiment of the present invention will be described.

FIG. 1 is a front view of a brassiere according to an embodiment of the present invention, which is extended left and right.
This brassiere comprises a pair of left and right cups 10 and 11, a central connecting portion 12 connecting the cups 10 and 11 to the left and right,
Extensions 13 extending laterally from the left and right edges of
14 and a pair of three straps X, which are detachably attached to the
Y and Z.

Each of the cups 10 and 11 is formed by heat setting one piece of dough in a cup shape, and wraps the breast softly like a no-bra. In addition,
Of the upper edges of the cups 10 and 11, the oblique side at the center is
Each has an ear, and no edge processing is performed by suturing. Further, the lower edges of the cups 10 and 11 are inserted with a shape-retaining wire like a normal brassier with a wire.

The center connecting portion 12 is made of non-stretchable fabric, and has a rectangular notch 12a at the center thereof, which extends downward from the upper edge. The notch 12a is designed in consideration of the fact that the direction in which the cups 10, 11 are pulled from the left and right is changed depending on whether the strap Y or Z is attached, as described later. Opening to the left and right prevents the cups 10 and 11 from being twisted.

On the other hand, of the three types of straps X, Y, and Z that can be attached to the bra body W, the strap X
Are the shoulder straps on the left and right, and the total length (only the tape portion) in the state where the portion Xa, which is held double and whose length can be adjusted, is the shortest is set to 40 cm. Then, fittings 19 to 22 for engaging with the brassiere body W are attached to both ends.

The strap Y is for fixing the brassiere on the back side. The strap Y is relatively short, and the part Ya that is double-supported and whose length can be adjusted is the shortest overall length ( (Only the tape portion) is set to 7 cm. Engagement tools 23 and 24 for engaging with the brassiere body W are attached to one end of each, and a fastener 25 that can be fitted and engaged with the other end. , 26 are attached. In addition,
The details of the fasteners 25 and 26 are shown in FIG. This fastener 2
According to Nos. 5 and 26, the notches 25a and 26a are inserted from above and below while intersecting each other, and the mating projections 25b and 26b are fitted into the respective recesses so that the two can be engaged. It has become.

Further, the strap Z is for fixing the bra at the back side and fixing the brassiere at the abdomen side, and is the longest, double-supported and adjustable length part Z.
The total length (only the tape part) in the state where a is the shortest is
It is set to 56 cm. And the strap Y
Similarly to the above, engaging members 27 and 28 for engaging with the above-mentioned brassiere body W are attached to one end of each, and a fastener which can be engaged with the other end by fitting each other. 29 and 30 are attached.

The back side of the bra main body W is shown in FIG.
The elastic tapes 15 and 16 are sewn linearly over the upper edges of the cups 10 and 11 and the upper edges of the left and right extensions 13 and 14. A similar elastic tape 1 is also provided on the lower edges of the extensions 13 and 14.
7, 18 are stitched.

Cup 1 of the above-mentioned elastic tapes 15, 16
The portions corresponding to the inner ends of 0 and 11 are turned back toward each other to form loops, and the loops serve as engagement portions A and A 'for attaching the shoulder strap. Also, the portions of the elastic tapes 17 and 18 corresponding to the outer ends of the extension portions 13 and 14 are formed by looping the ends thereof toward the front, and the loops are the engaging portions C for attaching the fixing strap. , C '. Further, a ring is formed by a separate member in the vicinity of the engaging portions C and C ', and the rings serve as engaging portions B and B' for attaching the shoulder strap.

Therefore, one end of the strap X is engaged with the engaging portions A and A 'provided on the back surface of the brassiere body W, and the strap X is engaged with the engaging portions B and B'.
Are engaged with each other, and one end of the strap Y is engaged with the engaging portions C and C ', respectively, whereby a brassiere as shown in FIG. 3 can be obtained. As shown in FIG. 4, this brassiere is
By engaging and retaining the 5, 26 on the back side, it can be worn in a general brassiere manner.

Further, instead of the strap Y, a brassiere in which one end of the strap Z is engaged with the engaging portions C and C ', respectively, as shown in FIG.
By crossing the other end side under the back side, further wrapping around to the abdomen, butting each other in front of the groin, and engaging and retaining the fasteners 29, 30.
The left and right extensions 13 and 14 can be worn with the back largely open by pulling diagonally downward. This allows
Clothes with a large back can be worn without worrying about the bra.

In this wearing mode, the left and right cups 1
0, 11 are pulled obliquely downward through the extensions 13, 14, but as already mentioned, the notch 12
The tensile stress is alleviated by the left and right portions of the upper portion a (see FIG. 1) being spread left and right, thereby preventing the left and right cups 10 and 11 from being twisted. Further, since the central connecting portion 12 is formed of a non-stretchable fabric, this portion does not expand and contract, and even if the wearing mode is that of FIG.
In this case, the cups 10 and 11 are strongly pressed so as not to separate from the chest.

Further, in this brassiere, when the other end of the strap X serving as the shoulder strap is engaged with the engaging portions A and A ', the left and right sides are reversed from the case of FIG. , The strap X can be worn in a state of crossing on the back side. According to this aspect, it is possible to wear clothes with large shoulders without worrying about the brassiere. Of course, as shown in FIG.

In addition, regardless of the shape of the clothes, it is possible to freely select a mode that is most comfortable for the user.

In the above example, the cups 10, 11
Are made of a single piece of cloth, respectively, and are brass of a type that can be worn like a no-bra, but the shapes of the cups 10 and 11 are not limited to this, and any shape may be used.

Also, the center connecting portion 12 does not need to be formed of a non-stretchable fabric as in the above-described example, and may be formed of an appropriate material. This is suitable in terms of the effect of pressing the cups 10, 11 against the chest. Whether or not to form the notch 12a in this portion is optional, but if the elasticity is poor, it is preferable to form the notch 12a as in the above example.

The materials of the straps X, Y and Z, the engaging members 19 and the like, the fasteners 25 and 26 and the like are not limited to the above examples, but may be appropriately selected. Further, engaging portions A, A ', B, B', C,
The method of forming C 'is not particularly limited, either. As in the above example, the ends of the elastic tapes 15, 16 to be applied from the back may be folded back and used as a loop. A member may be applied to form a ring. However, in a portion where the end portions of the elastic tapes 15 and 16 can be used, it is preferable to use this because it is not bulky.
