The technical problem to be solved by the invention

However, just accommodating the cushion between two pieces of cloth, the cushion is easy to move, and may cause the cushion to bend during washing. During intense exercise, the position of the cushion may also be greatly misaligned with the chest. Therefore, it is often necessary to adjust the shape and position of the gasket, which is very troublesome.

It is also possible to sew the two pieces of cloth for accommodating the liner around the periphery of the liner, or use an adhesive to adhere the liner to the cup, so as to fix the liner to the cup.

However, by moving the cushion forward and backward, a single cushion can be used to support chests of different sizes. Once the position of the pad is fixed, the movement of the pad in the forward and backward directions is also restricted, and pads of different sizes that meet the chest size need to be prepared again.

In addition, if an adhesive is used, the hardened adhesive will make the liner lose its softness and make the wearer feel uncomfortable.

The purpose of the present invention is to provide a bra that can support breasts of different sizes and has high comfort during wearing. Technical means to solve technical problems

The brassiere (1) of an embodiment of the present invention includes a pair of cups (2) covering the chest and respectively provided with pads (6), and a plurality of first connecting parts (7) having a predetermined length. The gasket (6) is fixed to the cup (2) through the plurality of first connecting parts (7), and all or a part of the plurality of first connecting parts (7) is an elastic member. Invention effect

The present invention can provide a bra that can support chests of different sizes and has high comfort during wearing.

Hereinafter, embodiments of the bra of the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings. The configuration described below is as an embodiment of the present invention, and the present invention is not limited to this.

In addition, in the following, upper refers to the direction Y1 in the drawing, and lower refers to the direction Y2 in the drawing. And the right refers to the direction X1 in the drawing and the left refers to the direction X2 in the drawing. The front of the wearer is called direction Z1 and the back of the wearer is called direction Z2.

(bra) Fig. 1 is a perspective view showing the appearance of a brassiere 1 according to an embodiment of the present invention. As shown in FIG. 1, the brassiere 1 includes a pair of cups 2, a back 3 and a pair of shoulders 4.

The cup 2 is used to cover the chest of the wearer. The back 3 extends from both sides of the cup 2 to the wearer's back and covers the wearer's back. The shoulder 4 connects the cup 2 and the back 3, and is hung on the left and right shoulders of the wearer.

The brassiere 1 is formed by, for example, a front body 51 and a back body 52 having a neckline and cuffs, and connecting respective shoulders and flanks. The positions of the lower ends of the front body 51 and the back body 52 may be located below the chest, for example.

FIG. 2 shows the structure of the predecessor 51. Fig. 2 is a cross-sectional view taken along the line A-A in Fig. 1. As shown in Fig. 2, the front body 51 includes an outer material 51A and an underwear material 51B.

The outer clothing material 51A and the underwear material 51B have the same shape, and the neckline, cuffs, side abdomen, and lower end are stitched together. The underwear material 51B is located on the inner side in contact with the wearer, and the outer material 51A is located on the outer side opposite to the wearer.

The material of the front body 51 and the back body 52 preferably has flexibility and flexibility, so that the wearer can move easily and improve comfort. Furthermore, a sweat-absorbing material can also improve the comfort during wearing, which is also preferable. Such materials are, for example, cotton, acrylic, nylon, polyurethane and the like.

The brassiere 1 of the present embodiment includes an elastic member 53 made of rubber material arranged at the lower ends of the front body 51 and the back body 52. The elastic member 53 allows the bra 1 to easily fit the wearer.

FIG. 3 shows the inner side contacting the wearer after the underwear material 51B of the bra 1 is removed. As shown in FIG. 3, the brassiere 1 has a pad 6, a plurality of first connecting parts 7 and a second connecting part 8 between the outer clothing material 51A of the cup 2 and the underwear material 51B.

(liner) The cushion 6 of the present embodiment is shown as a triangle, and the corners of the left and right sides of the triangle have shapes extending toward the flanks so as to cover a part of the chest and the flanks at the same time. According to such a shape, the cushion 6 can also support the side close to the lymph gland to improve the comfort of the wearer during the growth period.

In addition, as long as it can cover the chest, the shape of the pad 6 is not particularly limited. For example, the liner 6 may be a simple triangle, a circle, an ellipse, a quadrangle, a lemon shape, etc., or even an irregular shape.

As shown in FIG. 2, if the pad 6 is a convex shape curved at the center of the top end 6a, it conforms to the shape of the chest and improves supportability.

The material of the pad 6 is, for example, a soft and elastic material such as urethane, silicon, and cotton.

(The first connection part) The gasket 6 is fixed to the breast cup 2 through a plurality of first connecting portions 7. In this embodiment, one end of the plurality of first connecting parts 7 is sewn with the cushion 6, and the other end is sewn with the breast cup 2, so as to fix the cushion 6 to the breast cup 2.

Since the pad 6 is fixed at a plurality of positions, it can effectively prevent the pad 6 from bending and misaligning with the chest during washing or sports. Since the adhesive is not used for fixing, it can also prevent the cushion 6 from hardening due to the adhesive, so as to improve the comfort during wearing.

The first connecting portion 7 has a predetermined length d1. The liner 6 is fixed to the breast cup 2 at a position of the length d1 from the breast cup 2. Thereby, while fixing the cushion 6 to the cup 2, the cushion 6 can also move within a predetermined range.

For example, in accordance with the chest size of the wearer, the pad 6 can move toward the front and rear directions (direction Z1 and direction Z2) of the wearer. In this way, the chest can be moved forward when the size of the chest is large, and only a single size pad 6 can be used to support chests of different sizes.

In addition, the pad 6 can also move in the vertical direction (direction Y1 and direction Y2) and the left and right direction (direction X1 and direction X2) along with the swaying chest during exercise. In order to provide a bra 1 that is easy to move and has high comfort.

Considering the allowable range of movement of the pad 6, the length d1 of the first connecting portion 7 from the end on the side of the pad 6 to the end on the side of the cup 2 can be appropriately set. The length d1 of each first connecting portion 7 may be the same or different from each other.

All or a part of the plurality of first connecting parts 7 may be elastic members. In the first connecting portion 7 formed by the elastic member, the movement of the pad 6 can exceed the length d1 of the first connecting portion 7 to improve the support of the chest. At the same time, the first connecting portion 7 formed by the elastic member can be shortened to be less than d1 in length, which can reduce discomfort caused by sagging and improve comfort.

The number of the first connecting portions 7 is preferably higher than three. If three or more are used, the gasket 6 can be easily fixed and is not easily bent. The number of first connecting portions 7 in the embodiment of the present invention is five.

Among the plurality of first connecting parts 7, the vertical line length (distance) d2 from the center of the line of two adjacent first connecting parts 7 to the edge of the pad 6 is preferably arranged below 1 cm. Thereby, the bending of the gasket 6 can be effectively prevented, and the number of the first connecting portions 7 can be reduced.

Although the first connecting portion 7 of this embodiment is shown as a tape member, as long as it has a predetermined length d1, it is not limited to the shape of the tape, and may have other shapes.

(Second connection part) The pair of gaskets 6 are connected to each other through the second connecting portion 8. In the present embodiment, both ends of the second connecting portion 8 are sewn to the ends on the front center M side of the respective pads 6 to connect the respective pads 6.

By connecting in this way, the gasket 6 on the side of the front center M can be prevented from bending. Furthermore, since the pads 6 are fixed to each other, the positional deviation of the pads 6 toward the flanks can be prevented.

Since the second connecting portion 8 has a predetermined length d3, the pads 6 can be moved within a predetermined range while being fixed to each other. According to the size and movement of the chest, the pad 6 can be moved. Thereby, a comfortable bra 1 that uses a single-size pad 6 to support chests of different sizes and allows the wearer to move easily.

The position of the second connecting portion 8 in the up-down direction is close to the top end 6 a, which is beneficial to prevent the rotation of the gasket 6.

Considering the allowable movement range of the gasket 6, the length d3 of the second connecting portion 8 from the end on the left cup 2 side to the end on the right cup 2 side can be appropriately set.

The material of the second connecting portion 8 may be an elastic member or not. The higher the elasticity of the second connecting portion 8, the easier the pad 6 can move and the wearer can move easily. On the other hand, the lower the elasticity of the second connecting portion 8 is, the easier it is to prevent the position of the pad 6 from shifting toward the abdomen on both sides.

Although the second connecting portion 8 in the embodiment of the present invention is shown as a tape member, as long as it has a predetermined length d3, its shape is not limited.

When the second connecting portion 8 is used to fix the gasket 6, the vertical length (distance) d2 from the center of the connection line between the adjacent first connecting portion 7 and the second connecting portion 8 to the edge of the gasket 6 is preferably arranged at 1 cm the following. Thereby, the bending of the gasket 6 can be effectively prevented, and the number of the first connecting portions 7 can be reduced.

In the embodiment of the present invention, five first connecting portions 7 and one second connecting portion 8 are used to fix the position of the pad 6 in six directions. The length d2 of the vertical line of each connection line is arranged below 1 cm. Thereby, the degree of bending of the gasket 6 is small.

In addition, the number and positions of the first connecting portions 7 can be set according to the shape and size of the gasket 6. For example, when a circular gasket is used, three first connecting parts 7 can be used. It is also circular, and when the size of the gasket is larger, five first connecting portions 7 can be used.

At the same time, the number of the second connecting parts 8 is not limited to one, and a plurality of them may be used.

The first connecting portion 7 and the second connecting portion 8 of the embodiment of the present invention may be different members or the same member from the gasket 6.

FIG. 4 shows an example of a brassiere 1B in which the second connecting portion 8 is a part of the cushion 6. The gasket 6B illustrated in FIG. 4 is formed of a single member including the left and right circular gasket portions 61 and the second connecting portion 8B connecting the respective gasket portions 61.

The gasket 6B illustrated in FIG. 4 has less curvature on the front center M side. Therefore, the number of the first connecting parts 7 can be reduced, for example, three first connecting parts 7 can be arranged on the flanks.

As described above, in the brassiere 1 of the embodiment of the present invention, the pad 6 is fixed to the cup 2 through the plurality of first connecting portions 7. Thereby, the bending and positional deviation of the gasket 6 can be reduced. At the same time, no adhesive is used to fix the liner 6 to maintain the softness of the liner 6.

The first connecting portion 7 has a predetermined length d1, and since all or a part of the plurality of first connecting portions 7 is an elastic member, the pad 6 can be moved in a predetermined range while being fixed. Thereby, the pad 6 can be moved in the front and rear directions to support chests of different sizes. In addition, the pad 6 can also move up and down and left and right in accordance with the chest, which can enhance the fit and increase the comfort during wearing.

Although the preferred embodiments related to the present invention have been described above, the present invention is not limited to these embodiments, and various modifications and changes can be made within the scope of the gist of the present invention.

For example, it is not limited to a brassiere, as long as it has a cup that supports the breast, and can shape the breast through a pad to maintain and adjust the shape of the breast, all of which are applicable to the present invention. These clothing categories include, for example, sports vests with cups, petticoats, short underwear, dresses, as well as leotards, three-in-one bras, tights, and swimwear.
