Description

[Detailed Description of the Invention] Industrial Application Field The present invention relates to a bust measuring device for bra selection.

BACKGROUND ART Conventionally, when selecting a brassiere, the dimensions of the so-called top bust and underbust were measured, and a cup was selected according to the difference in dimension between the top bust and underbust.

Problems that the invention aims to solve However, with the above selection, it often did not fit tightly to the bust when worn.

For this reason, a curve measuring instrument in which a bar material appears is known, as disclosed in Japanese Utility Model Publication No. 53-12208, but the instrument is complicated and it takes time to select the cup.

In addition, a trapezoidal cone-shaped measuring tool with nipple position measurement lines has been proposed, as disclosed in Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 19801-1980, but it can quantitatively and accurately measure the bust of each person. It was difficult to do.

Means for Solving the Problems The present invention was developed in view of the above-mentioned points, and includes contour lines on the circumferential surface of a breast measuring device, such as a bowl, which is formed to fit or abut on the breast area of the bust. A bra selection device characterized by having a mark for the top bust position and a flexible or bendable bending part on the lower circumference of the bust measuring device so that the bust measuring device conforms to the shape of the bust. We provide bust measuring instruments.

Example The present invention will be explained below based on examples.

1 to 3 show an embodiment of the present invention.
The bust measuring device 1 is made of a transparent synthetic resin material and is integrally formed into a predetermined cup shape, such as a so-called A cup or B cup, so that it almost fits into the breast area of the bust as shown in FIGS. 1 and 2. is formed. As shown in FIG. 1, a plurality of top bust position marks 2 are provided in approximately parallel lines on the upper circumference of the top bust area, so that the desired brassiere can be easily selected. As shown in FIG. 1, each of the plurality of top bust position markers 2 is provided with scale marks 3 in the form of contour lines, so that the height of the breast can be measured quantitatively. Furthermore, as shown in FIG. 2, the bust measuring device 1 is provided with notched-like bent portions 4 along the lower circumference at intervals corresponding to the top bust position marks 2, as shown in FIG. It can be bent appropriately to fit the bust area. Reference numeral 5 designates a stepped peripheral portion to make it easier to hold the bust measuring device 1, and reference numerals 6, 7, and 8 designate locking holes to which a locking strap or the like can be attached, if necessary, in the same way as a brassiere.

Function: Therefore, in order to select the required brazier,
First, the bust measuring device 1 is selected whose size and shape are closest to the breast area of the wearer's bust. Then, the center part of the top bust position mark 2 of the bust measuring device 1 is fitted over the wearer's breast so that it is located at the nipple area as shown in FIG. The folding part 4 at the lower circumference is bent so that the bust measuring device 1 can fit most of the bust area. When the bust measurement device 1 has reached the maximum fit, a brassiere with a corresponding cup size preset is selected based on the position of the nipple indicated by the top bust position mark 2 on the upper circumferential surface.

In this way, when choosing a bra, you can accurately measure your top bust and underbust by fitting the bust measuring device over your breasts, so you can easily measure your bust size as if you were wearing a bra. It is possible to accurately select the optimal bra size that fits the wearer's bust.

In particular, in the above embodiment, since the bust measuring device is made of a transparent material, even if the bust measuring device is fitted onto and covering the breast, the contact state of the bust measuring device can be confirmed from the outside. It can be selected.

In addition, in the above example, since the top bust position mark is marked with a scale, it is possible to check quantitatively when a suitable bust measuring device cannot be selected, and the desired bra size can be diversified. This can be dealt with appropriately.

Another Embodiment FIG. 4 shows another embodiment of the present invention, in which the bust measuring device 1 is formed into a half-split bowl-shaped body, and a grip portion 9 is attached to the side.
It has a protruding structure.

In addition to the above-mentioned functions and effects, this embodiment can save approximately half the amount of material used, and can easily measure the bust area by holding the grip.

In the above embodiments, the bust measuring device is integrally formed with a bowl-shaped body or a half-shaped body, but it can also be folded in the radial direction or circumferential direction, or can be used for both A cup and B cup, etc. It is possible to do this as appropriate by providing a notch or the like so that it can be expanded and contracted, and although the bust measuring device is made of a somewhat hard material, it is also possible to use a soft material. Often, the bent part of the lower circumference is made of a soft material so that its flexibility allows it to contact the underbust, or an arc-shaped body is pivotally attached to the side of the bust measuring device to adjust the rotation. It is also possible to select.

In addition, in the above embodiment, one bust measuring device was used to measure one bust breast area.
The bust can be selected by measuring both sides using a pair of left and right bust measuring instruments.

Effects of the Device As described above, according to the present invention, by fitting or abutting the required bust measuring device on the breast and bending the bent portion of the lower circumference so that it comes into close contact with the breast, the breast can be measured. The position of the nipple can be quantitatively measured with the top bust position marks arranged in contour lines, and the underbust and top bust areas can be quantitatively and accurately measured. This allows you to choose the best bra for you.
