2. Description of the Related Art Conventionally, in a top of a brassiere, a swimsuit, a bodysuit, etc., a bust correction bone, especially a wire bone, has been frequently used for the purpose of shape retention and dressing of a cup body which is a bust accommodating portion. One example will be described with reference to FIG. As shown in FIG. 5 (A), a tubular sewing portion or the like formed at the joint portion with the body 24 over the lower edge portions 22L and 23L of the left and right cup bodies 22 and 23 which are the bust accommodating portions in the top 21 such as a brassiere. 28, a double wire bone 25 made of steel or plastic bent in the same shape as the lower edge portions 22L and 23L of the cup body is inserted.

[0003]

In order to wear the top 21 having such wire bones 25, the left and right straps 2 attached to the upper portions of the cup bodies 22 and 23, respectively.
Hang 6 and 27 on your shoulder and pull upward. Then, the pulling force of the straps 26 and 27 is transmitted to the wire bones 25, and the wire bones 25 bent and arranged in the same shape as the lower edge portions 22L and 23L of the cup body are effective for bust-up and bust-shifting. The shape and shape of the cup body are adjusted for the purpose. However, in such a conventional top 21, as described above, the bust-up and the bust-up can be achieved by the action of the wire bones 25 that are bent and arranged in the same shape as the shapes of the cup body lower edge portions 22L and 23L. In order to perform it, the wire bone 25 bites around the bust in its original shape when it is pulled upward by the strap, especially on both sides of the body, causing a slight painful discomfort and a feeling of wearing. As shown in FIG. 5 (B) which is an enlarged view of a part of the portion B in FIG. 5 (A), the upper end of the wire bone 25 on the side of the body is usually at most armpit. Since it extends only slightly upward from the above, the cup body 22 also tries to move upward due to the pulling force of the strap 26 in the direction of the arrow, but the wire bone 25 does not move. In addition, the edge portion P at the upper end comes into contact with the tubular sewn portion or the like 28 to try to stay in the original position, and the tubular sewn portion 28 or the like is damaged after long-term use. There was a risk that the swelling would stick out from the damaged portion.

In view of the above, the present invention solves the problems of the conventional top such as a brassiere having a strap and wire bones arranged as described above, and the wire bones are used even when the straps are pulled and worn. It is intended to provide a wire-bone suspension structure capable of revealing an ideal bust line with a long life that does not cause discomfort and does not damage the cup body.
