Embodiments of the invention

[0024] The present invention is directed to the existing breast prosthesis, which may cause problems for the wearer to block pores, sweat gland outlets, etc., by modifying the surface shape of the breast prosthesis close to the human skin, and providing more The way of dissipating the venting holes allows the heat dissipated from the skin to be discharged and gives the user a comfortable wearing feeling.

[0025] The present invention will be described in detail below with reference to the drawings and specific embodiments.

1 and 2 are schematic structural views of a first embodiment of the present invention. 1 is a front elevational view of a first embodiment of a breast prosthesis of the present invention, and FIG. 2 is a rear elevational view of a second embodiment of the breast prosthesis of the present invention. In this embodiment, the breast prosthesis is made of silica gel, gel, polyurethane, sponge, rubber or the above materials, or any integral structure suitable for the material of the present invention, for example, the silica gel can be directly passed through a suitable mold. Injection molding; or for existing breast prostheses, die-cut according to the following shape description. The breast prosthesis includes a base body including a first surface 1 1 on the side close to the human body, a second surface 10 away from the side of the human body and opposite to the first surface 11, the first surface 11 being a wavy curved surface, The two surfaces 10 are curved faces, and the two surfaces cooperate to form a prosthesis that is similar in height to the human breast. The breast prosthesis further includes a plurality of heat dissipation vents 4 extending through the first surface 11 and the second surface 10. In the present embodiment, the heat dissipation vents 4 are concentratedly distributed in the lower half of the breast prosthesis because the thickness of the lower portion of the breast prosthesis is thicker than that of the upper half, and heat accumulation is more likely to occur in the lower half. Of course, those skilled in the art can evenly distribute the heat dissipation vents 4 to the entire breast prosthesis according to actual production needs.

[0027] The second surface 10 in FIG. 1 is an arcuate surface that generally conforms to the shape of the inner surface of the bra cup for simulating the arched shape of the human breast. When the heat dissipation vent 4 is provided, it is necessary that the edge of the heat dissipation vent 4 does not cause significant protrusion or depression with respect to the second surface 10 to avoid scratching with the inner surface of the brass cup. The second surface 10 in FIG. 2 is a wavy surface, which needs to be explained here. The wavy surface at the location is not limited to the wave shape having the uniform undulation of the second surface 10, but means that the second surface 10 has irregularities such as unevenness, for example, growing a bump array on a smooth surface. When the two surfaces 10 are capable of creating a gap in contact with the skin of the human body, it should be understood as the wavy surface referred to in the present invention.

[0028] When the first embodiment of the present invention is used, since the second surface 10 and the human skin are left with a plurality of gaps due to the undulations, the pores, sweat glands, etc. at the gap are not blocked. , able to dissipate heat normally. And these gaps are electrically connected to the heat dissipation vents 4, and the generated heat can be dissipated from the heat dissipation vents 4, so that the wearer's chest temperature is adjusted.

[0029] The present invention is also improved on the basis of the first embodiment to form a second embodiment as shown in FIGS. 3 to 7. This embodiment, based on the first embodiment, will have the original integrated structure. It is divided into two parts to make the internal structure improvement of the two parts.

[0030] FIG. 3 is a front elevational view of the second embodiment of the breast prosthesis of the present invention with the upper prosthesis and the lower prosthesis unjoined. The entire breast prosthesis consists of an upper prosthesis 1 and a lower prosthesis 2, on the lower prosthesis 2, on the side close to the upper prosthesis 1, and a plurality of connectors extending toward the upper prosthesis 1, which are false on the upper part Corresponding positions on the body 1 are provided with matching matching insertion slots (not shown in the figure). When the connector is docked with the insertion slot, a structure as shown in FIG. 4 is formed, the upper prosthesis 1 and the lower prosthesis 2 constitute a complete breast prosthesis, the breast prosthesis formed thereof will constitute the same first surface and second surface as in the first embodiment, the difference between the two in the upper prosthesis 1 Internal structure.

[0031] Referring further to FIGS. 5 and 6, a heat dissipating venting cavity 3 is disposed in the interior of the upper prosthesis 1, and the heat dissipating venting chambers 3 communicate with the outside through a first conducting port located at the mating slot. On each of the connectors of the lower prosthesis 2, they are respectively connected to different heat dissipation vent holes 4 through the second conduction ports. Since the heat-dissipating venting chamber 3 is disposed inside the upper prosthesis 1, it does not affect the shapes of the first surface and the second surface.

[0032] With such a structure in which the heat dissipation ventilating cavity 3 is disposed inside the upper prosthesis 1, the heat dissipation and air permeable ability of the breast prosthesis can be further improved. Referring to FIG. 7 further, on the lower prosthesis 2, a heat dissipation vent hole penetrating through the prosthesis forms a heat dissipation and ventilation tunnel 6 in the lower prosthesis 2, and when the upper prosthesis 1 and the lower prosthesis 2 are inserted, the heat dissipation and ventilation are adopted. The cavity 3 is connected to the different heat dissipation ventilating tunnels 6 through the first conduction ports located at the insertion slots, and then communicated to the outside through the heat dissipation ventilating tunnels 6, respectively. When the user wears a fake breast, the air inside the heat-dissipating cavity 3 absorbs the heat emitted by the human body and becomes a hot air. These convections are hot. The air flows out from the heat dissipation vent hole through the heat dissipation vent tunnel 6; at the same time, the cold air is replenished into the heat dissipation ventilating cavity 3 via the heat dissipation vent tunnel 6, and the convection heat exchange method can quickly take away the heat generated by the human body. Make the user comfortable to wear.

[0033] In addition, when the heat-dissipating venting cavity 3 is disposed in the upper prosthesis 1, since materials such as silica gel and sponge are easily deformed, it is possible to change the shape of the heat-dissipating ventilating cavity 3 during use. The effect of heat dissipation. For this reason, in the present embodiment, an inner and outer two-layer structure as shown in Fig. 7 is employed. The inner layer is made of a relatively hard material to form a shape-stable heat-dissipating cavity 3, and a surface layer 5 composed of a silica gel or a sponge is wrapped on the outside of the heat-dissipating ventilating cavity 3, and the surface topography of the surface layer 5 is processed into a curved surface and a wave shape, respectively. Face, as the first surface and the second surface of the breast prosthesis. The inner and outer double-layer structure can ensure the shape of the heat-dissipating ventilating cavity 3 and maintain the softness of the entire breast prosthesis surface. The manufacture of such a breast implant having an inner and outer two-layer structure can be achieved by: firstly preparing an inner heat dissipation venting cavity on the mold, and after the heat dissipation venting cavity is formed, it is placed in another mold for injection molding, In order to form the upper prosthesis on the periphery of the heat dissipation venting cavity. In addition, in the present embodiment, a plurality of mutually spaced heat dissipation venting chambers 3 are disposed in the upper prosthesis 1 , and the plurality of mutually spaced heat dissipation venting chambers 3 are compared to the structure of the single heat dissipating venting chambers 3 . Can provide a more stable breast prosthesis structure.

[0034] It should be noted that, in the present embodiment, the connector is extended from the lower prosthesis toward the upper prosthesis, but those skilled in the art should understand that, as an equivalent solution, it may also be on the upper prosthesis. The connector is extended toward the lower prosthesis, and a correspondingly shaped insertion slot is provided on the lower prosthesis, the effect is the same. That is, the connector and the insertion slot in this embodiment should be understood as a mating connector for use, and other plug-in members of the shape structure can also be applied to the embodiment.

[0035] In the embodiment of FIG. 3 to FIG. 7, a technical solution for providing a heat dissipating venting cavity only in the upper prosthesis is given, but those skilled in the art can obtain the lower part based on the above-mentioned scheme without any doubt. The technical enlightenment of the heat-dissipating cavity with similar shape is set in the fake body. In the lower prosthesis, a heat-dissipating venting cavity can be used to turn on some or all of the heat-dissipating and ventilating tunnels. This arrangement enables heat exchange space inside the lower prosthesis.

To further accelerate the efficiency of heat dissipation, the same can further reduce the weight of the entire breast prosthesis. Considering the shape stability of the breast prosthesis, a plurality of mutually spaced heat dissipation venting chambers are usually provided, and each heat dissipation venting cavity and several heat dissipation portions are provided. The ventilated tunnel is turned on.

[0036] With the structure of the second embodiment of the present invention, further structural improvement is performed on the upper prosthesis. The heat dissipating cavity is disposed in the upper dummy body; on the one hand, the arrangement of the heat dissipating cavity increases the way of dissipating heat, so that heat can be dissipated by heat exchange; on the other hand, the arrangement of the heat dissipating cavity makes the whole The weight reduction of the breast prosthesis and the effective thickness of the breast prosthesis are reduced, so that the heat generated by the user at the time of wearing is reduced, and the wearing is more comfortable.

[0037] The above two embodiments of the present invention can be used in a manner of being directly placed in a bra cup, but when the breast prosthesis is directly placed in the bra cup for use, the breast prosthesis is easily displaced. Position, especially during exercise, the large vibration can easily cause the breast prosthesis to get out of the cup, and the user has to adjust it frequently. Maintaining the present invention also provides a third embodiment as shown in Figs. 8 to 10. This embodiment is based on a modification of the first embodiment or the second embodiment, in which the bag body is placed in the bra cup by placing the breast prosthesis in the bag body. In this way, the breast prosthesis is more stably confined within the bra cup, without the user having to constantly adjust its position.

[0038] Specifically, as shown in FIG. 8, is an embodiment of a bra filler body based on the present invention. The embodiment provides a bag body ₉ , and the bag body 9 is provided with an accommodating space for accommodating the breast implant of the first embodiment or the second embodiment, and the accommodating space is consistent with the shape of the breast prosthesis. After the body is placed in the accommodating space, the breast prosthesis does not move arbitrarily with respect to the bag body 9. The accommodating space allows the breast prosthesis to be placed into the bag body 9 through the sputum through a sputum. In addition, the bag body 9 is also connected to a holding device 8 by a prosthetic connection belt. The holding device 8 is for fixing to the bra shoulder strap when the bag body 9 containing the breast prosthesis is placed in the bra cup. Thus, at the time of use, the bag body 9 placed in the bra cup does not move arbitrarily, thereby avoiding the shape distortion caused by the displacement or slipping out of the brassiere cover.

[0039] In order to ensure breathability and comfort, the bag body 9 is usually made of natural fibers (e.g., cotton cloth) or a synthetic material as long as it has a preferred wicking property.

[0040] In view of the problem of the gas permeability, on the bag body 9, the position corresponding to the heat dissipation vent hole 4 is replaced with the mesh gas permeable layer 10 as shown in FIG. The mesh gas permeable layer 10 has a relatively sparse venting through hole and does not affect the ingress and egress of air from the heat permeable vent 4.

[0041] Only a front view of the bag body 9 is shown in Fig. 9, and it will be understood by those skilled in the art that on the back side of the bag body 9, corresponding to the position of the heat dissipation vent hole 4, a mesh gas permeable layer is also employed. 10 Replace the original material of the bag body 9. In this way, the sweat and heat generated from the human skin can be emitted without hindrance, so that the effect of cooling is more obvious. [0042] In order to further improve the stability of the breast prosthesis in the bra cup, the velcro may be respectively adhered or sewn at the corresponding position on the inner cup surface of the bra cup and the bag body, or any other suitable positioning manner. When the bag is placed in the cup, the two are automatically bonded and fixed. Or, a button hole is arranged at the edge of the cup, and a button is sewn on the bag body. After the bag body is placed in the cup, the two are further fixed by the button action.

[0043] In the third embodiment of the present invention, the breast prosthesis is restrained in the bag body, and the bag body is further fixed by the fixing action of the clamping device relative to the bra cup, so that the wearing time does not occur. The breast implant is misplaced, and the bag body is made of natural fiber material such as cotton cloth. When it comes into contact with human skin, it is not prone to allergies.

[0044] The present invention provides three embodiments. By adopting the above embodiment of the present invention, the heat generated by the human body can be quickly dissipated from the heat dissipation vent hole of the breast prosthesis without accumulating heat, thereby allowing the user to wear Comfortable. At the same time, the preparation of the breast prosthesis of the above embodiment of the present invention does not use a novel material, and can be preferably applied to the existing breast prosthesis production line, and the technical continuity is better; by dividing the breast prosthesis into upper parts The prosthesis and the lower prosthesis are beneficial to the thermal insulation in the upper prosthesis to further improve the heat dissipation performance; the position of the breast prosthesis is also defined by the addition of the bag body, and the wearing of the breast prosthesis is prevented from moving outside the cup. .

The above are only a few specific embodiments of the present invention, and are not intended to limit the scope of the present invention, and equivalent variations made by those skilled in the art in accordance with the present invention, and those skilled in the art are well known to those skilled in the art. Changes should still be within the scope of the present invention.
