Description

The present invention relates to a reinforcing member for a breast cup to be attached to clothing such as a brassiere, a body suit, a brass lip, a bustier, a swimsuit, and a slip dress.

Conventional technology

Generally, in a breast cup used for clothing such as a brassiere, a channel member made of cloth is attached along the lower edge of the breast cup to enhance the function of beautifully shaping the shape of the breast, and a circle is formed inside the channel member. An arc-shaped wire was accommodated to make up or reinforce. However, in order to lift the breast inward and upward, the wire is given a certain degree of rigidity and the cross section of the wire is very thin, so it bites into the skin and gives a feeling of pressure and pain. There was a thing. In addition, when washing repeatedly, there is a concern that the end of the thin wire breaks through the channel member and is exposed.

Therefore, conventionally, it has a mounting peripheral flange portion sewn along the lower peripheral portion of the cup portion, and a breast receiving portion that rises at an angle of 90 ° or more with respect to this flange portion, and is entirely flexible. Japanese Utility Model Publication No. 3-48162 (see Patent Document 1) discloses a technique for attaching a body shape correcting device made of a rubber-like elastic material to the cup portion. According to this, since the breast is lifted by the surface, a remarkable bust-up effect can be obtained, and since the area that touches the skin is larger than that of the wire, the feeling of pressure and pain given to the wearer can be reduced. However, since the breast receiving part rises widely from the lower peripheral edge of the cup part, a moment acts to rotate the breast receiving part outward due to the weight of the breast, and the breast flows outward particularly near the side part. As a result, this moment increases. However, since the conventional technique does not include means for resisting the moment applied to the side of the correction device, it has not been possible to completely prevent the breast from flowing in the side direction.

Further, there is a female garment in which a cup wire is provided along the lower edge of the breast cup, and an amorphous resin sheet-like piece extending in a planar shape is provided on the outer side along the side edge of the breast cup. This is disclosed in Japanese Patent No. 3069237 (see Patent Document 2). However, since this device relies mainly on the wire for its bust-up function, it is not possible to completely eliminate the biting and escape of the wire. Also, since the wire and the amorphous resin sheet-like piece are separate and different materials, it cannot be said that the force applied to the wire is reliably transmitted to the amorphous resin sheet-like piece, and it can be attached at the same stage in the manufacturing process. Since it was not possible, manufacturing was troublesome.

Therefore, in order to provide a breast cup that suppresses the feeling of pressure and pain given to the wearer, and that can reliably prevent the breast from flowing to the side and can be beautifully corrected, and is easy to wear on clothing. As shown in Japanese Patent No. 113505 (refer to Patent Document 3), the heel has flexibility and rigidity capable of holding the breast, and is attached to the lower side of the breast cup. A breast cup reinforcing member has been proposed, which is formed by integrally forming an overhanging rising portion, and a wide fin portion is formed at an end portion of the heel portion.
Japanese Utility Model Publication No. 3-48162 Japanese Patent No. 3069237 JP 2003-113505 A

Nonetheless, in the breast cup reinforcing member disclosed in Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 2003-113505 (see Patent Document 3), the feeling of pressure and pain still applied to the wearer is suppressed, and the breast flows sideways. It was inadequate in terms of the function of reliably preventing and correcting beautifully.
The present invention provides a reinforcing member for a breast cup that suppresses a feeling of pressure and pain given to a wearer, and that can more reliably prevent breasts from flowing sideways and can be beautifully corrected, and can be easily worn on clothing. It is for the purpose.

That is, the breast cup reinforcing member of the present invention is a breast cup reinforcing member in which a flange portion attached below the breast cup and a rising portion projecting from the upper edge of the flange portion to the breast cup side are formed. ,
The flange portion is made of a material having flexibility and rigidity, the rising portion is made of a soft material, and both are integrated.

The breast cup reinforcing member according to the present invention is characterized in that both the flange portion and the rising portion are integrated at the time of molding.

The breast cup reinforcing member according to the present invention is characterized in that both the flange portion and the rising portion are joined and integrated by an adhesive or heat welding, respectively.

The rising portion made of the soft material can prevent a feeling of pressure and pain given to the wearer due to its flexibility. In addition, the flange part made of a material with flexibility and rigidity opposes the moment applied to the side part by the weight of the breast, prevents the breast from flowing in the side direction, brings the bust inward and beautifully corrects it. . As a result of integrally forming the flange portion and the rising portion having such a function, the force applied to the rising portion is reliably supported by the flange portion.

Hereinafter, embodiments of the reinforcing member for a breast cup according to the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the drawings, taking as an example the case of applying to a brassiere.
1 is a perspective view of a breast cup reinforcing member according to the present invention applied to a brassiere, FIG. 2 is a sectional view thereof, and FIG. 3 is a plan view showing an embodiment of the breast cup reinforcing member of the present invention. Is a cross-sectional view thereof.

As shown in FIG. 1, the brassiere is configured by providing breast cups 2 on both sides of the front portion of the base cloth 1 and arranging reinforcing members 3 along the lower edge of the breast cup 2. The base fabric 1 has a length that goes around the chest circumference of the wearer, and hooks that are detachably engaged with each other are attached to both ends thereof. As shown in FIG. 2, the breast cup 2 is formed by overlapping an inner cloth 4, an outer cloth 5, and a decorative lace 6 made of a conventionally known material in this order from the inner face. A soft material such as soft fiber fill is used for the inner cloth 4, and a slightly harder material such as hard fiber fill is used for the outer cloth 5. Further, a strap 7 is bridged from the center of the upper end of the breast cup 2 to the back side of the upper end of the base cloth 1 (FIG. 1).

The reinforcing member 3 is disposed between the inner cloth 4 and the outer cloth 5 (FIG. 2) and has a substantially arc shape along the shape of the lower edge of the breast cup 2 (FIG. 1).
Further, as shown in FIGS. 3 and 4, the reinforcing member 3 integrally includes a flange portion 8 attached below the breast cup 2 and a rising portion 9 protruding from the upper edge of the flange portion 8 to the breast cup 2 side. Is formed. The width of the flange portion 8 is about 6 mm to 7 mm, but the dimension of the flange portion 8 can be appropriately changed depending on the size of the brassiere.

The inclination angle of the rising portion 9 is steep at the end near the front center so as to keep the bust in an ideal shape, and gradually becomes gradually closer to the side. Also, the rising height of the rising portion 9 is low at the end near the front center, and gradually increases toward the side. For this reason, the rising portion 9 does not bite toward the front center of the breast, and the effect of bringing the breast inward is enhanced.

Moreover, the flange part 8 which comprises the reinforcement member 3 uses the raw material which has flexibility and the rigidity which can hold | maintain a breast. For example, a molded hard vinyl resin, olefin resin, polycarbonate resin, or polyester resin is used.
Further, the rising portion 9 is softly formed of a soft material in order to improve skin contact with the breast and the side portions and to be easily adapted to the body line. As such a soft material, a soft vinyl resin, olefin resin, or silicon resin can be used.

The reinforcing member 3 is integrally formed with a flange portion 8 and a rising portion 9. In such integration, both the flange portion and the rising portion can be integrated during molding. For example, the flange portion 8 having both flexibility and rigidity capable of holding the breast is molded in advance, and this is set in a mold and filled with the rising portion made of a soft material. Can be

When the reinforcing member 3 is integrated, both the flange portion 8 and the rising portion 9 are formed in advance, and both are brought into contact with each other and bonded and integrated by an adhesive or heat welding.
Of course, not only in the case of integration at the time of the molding process or in the case of bonding and integration by thermal welding, but also in the case of bonding and integration with an adhesive, when joining the flange portion 8 and the rising portion 9 together In order to prevent peeling, it is necessary that the respective materials are familiar to each other.
Regardless of which method is adopted, one of the joint portions of the flange portion and the rising portion is a U-shaped receiving portion 10 as shown in FIG. 4, and the other thin piece is fitted into the gap. It is desirable to make it. If it does in this way, the intensity | strength of both joint part will improve, and the said flange part can support the said standing part reliably.

Since the reinforcing member 3 is curved in an arc shape and the rising portion 9 is inclined with respect to the flange portion 8, when it is sandwiched between the inner surface cloth 4 and the outer surface cloth 5, it tries to sew at once. It is necessary to sew the rising portion 9 while crushing and flattening the rising portion 9. If it does in this way, it will not only be difficult to sew, but the curved shape of the reinforcing member 3 will spread and deform | transform, and it cannot attach to the exact position of the breast cup 2. FIG. Therefore, the inner cloth 4, the reinforcing member 3, and the outer cloth 5 are attached to each other as follows.

The outer cloth 5 and the decorative lace 6 are previously sewn to form an outer cup, and the upper end of the cover cloth 13 is sewn along the lower edge surface of the outer cup (FIG. 2). In addition, as the cover cloth 13, it is preferable to use a material rich in decoration such as a lace piled on the surface of the marquette.

Further, one side of the tricot cloth 12 is sewn to the back surface of the base cloth 1 disposed below the breast cup 2, and the base cloth 1 and the inner cloth 4 are sewn together. Furthermore, the elastic band cloth 14 is sewn on the surface of the base cloth 1 along the lower edge thereof. Further, the flange portions 8 of the reinforcing members 3 are overlapped and adhered to each other along the lower surface edge of the inner cloth 4. Then, the upper part of the channel member 11 made of velour or the like is overlapped with the lower part of the back surface of the inner cloth 4, and the flange part 8, the inner cloth 4 and the upper part of the channel member 11 are attached. 11, the elastic band cloth 14, the base cloth 1, and the lower part of the channel member 11 are sewn together.

Next, the lower part of the cover cloth 13 and the other side part of the tricot cloth 12 are sewed on the inner surface, and then folded back from this seam, and the upper edge of the outer cup and the upper edge of the inner cloth 4 are sewn together. As a result, the flange portion 8 is disposed below the breast cup 2, and the rising portion 9 is projected to the breast cup 2 side between the inner surface cloth 4 and the outer surface cloth 5. Moreover, if the inner surface cloth 4, the reinforcing member 3, and the outer surface cloth 5 are joined as described above, the reinforcing member 3 can be easily attached to the breast cup 2 without being deformed, and the sewn portion is a cover cloth. Since it is covered with 13, the appearance is also good.

The reinforcing member of the breast cup of the present invention can be used by being attached to clothing such as a brassiere, a body suit, a brass slip, a bustier, a swimsuit, and a slip dress.

It is a perspective view at the time of applying the reinforcing member of the breast cup of this invention to a brassiere. FIG. It is a top view which shows one Example of the reinforcement member of the breast cup of this invention. FIG.
