Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of health bra technology, and more specifically to a breathable massage health bra cup and its preparation method. Background Technology

[0002] As people's health awareness continues to rise, underwear products that combine comfort and health benefits are gradually becoming a new market demand. Traditional bra cups mostly use a single material, which can only meet basic support and shaping needs, and have obvious shortcomings in terms of breathability and massage and health care. Long-term wear can easily cause problems such as breast stuffiness and discomfort, making it difficult to meet consumers' demands for health care.

[0003] Currently, while some underwear products on the market contain added health-promoting ingredients, most use methods such as soaking or coating, which easily lead to the loss of these ingredients and fail to provide precise massage to acupoints on the breasts. Furthermore, the structural design of existing bra cups is relatively simple, lacking refined considerations for ergonomics, and thus failing to balance fit and health-promoting functions. Summary of the Invention

[0004] To address the aforementioned issues, this invention proposes a breathable massage health care bra cup and its preparation method. By embedding plant particles with health benefits into the bra cup, multiple health care effects such as acupoint massage, meridian dredging, sterilization, and itch relief are achieved for the breasts. At the same time, the breathability and comfort of the bra cup are improved, filling the gap in the existing technology for realizing the health care function of underwear.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention adopts the following technical solution: A breathable massage health bra cup includes a bra cup pad and plant particles fixed to the inner surface of the bra cup pad.

[0006] This invention is the first to combine plant particles with bra cups. The plant particles can massage the acupoints of the entire breast, while the space created by the plant particles can be breathable. In addition, the plant particles contain a variety of beneficial ingredients, achieving health benefits such as antibacterial and anti-inflammatory effects.

[0007] Furthermore, the plant particles are round or nearly round, with a diameter of 1 to 5 millimeters, and are embedded in the inner surface of the bra cup pad, with some exposed outside the inner surface of the bra cup pad.

[0008] Furthermore, to upgrade this breathable massage health bra cup from "random massage" to precise "meridian-based acupoint" conditioning, the implantation sites of the plant particles can be precisely positioned according to the meridian theory of traditional Chinese medicine, corresponding to key acupoints on the breast and chest. For example, corresponding to the Tanzhong acupoint can relieve chest tightness and regulate Qi, and soothe emotions; corresponding to the Rugen acupoint can improve sagging and promote lactation; corresponding to the Yingchuang acupoint can soften nodules and enhance elasticity; and corresponding to the Tianchi acupoint can eliminate distension and pain, and clear the meridians and disperse nodules.

[0009] Furthermore, one or more of the following: Sichuan pepper seeds, chia seeds, cassia seeds, or granules of traditional Chinese medicine.

[0010] The beneficial effects of adopting the above technical solution are as follows: the natural plant granules such as pepper seeds, mugwort seeds, cassia seeds, and traditional Chinese medicine contain volatile oils, alkaloids and other components that have multiple health benefits.

[0011] The ephedrine in Sichuan pepper seeds can gently stimulate the nerve endings in the skin, and has special effects in relieving pain, itching, eliminating odor, promoting blood circulation, refreshing the mind, and improving immunity.

[0012] Chia seeds contain Omega-3 fatty acids, which have a significant antibacterial effect. They are also rich in phenolic and flavonoid compounds, which have powerful antioxidant capabilities.

[0013] Cassia seeds are rich in anthraquinone compounds such as rhein and emodin, which have the effects of clearing heat and improving eyesight, as well as moisturizing the intestines and relieving constipation. Their hard texture allows them to provide regular massage to the acupoints on the breasts during wear, promoting local metabolism. At the same time, the natural fragrance of cassia seeds can also improve the wearing environment.

[0014] Traditional Chinese medicine granules can be compounded according to different constitutions and needs to achieve a synergistic effect of multiple benefits. For example: 1) Blood-activating and meridian-clearing products: Granules made from ingredients such as safflower, chuanxiong, and frankincense can promote local blood circulation in the breast, relieve premenstrual breast tenderness, and have a certain auxiliary conditioning effect on sub-health conditions such as breast hyperplasia. 2) Heat-clearing and detoxifying: Granules made from dandelion, honeysuckle, wild chrysanthemum, etc., contain flavonoids, chlorogenic acid and other components that can effectively inhibit common pathogenic bacteria such as Staphylococcus aureus, which is of positive significance for the prevention and mild relief of mastitis during lactation. 3) Qi-regulating and stagnation-dispersing granules: These granules are made from ingredients such as Prunella vulgaris, Citrus reticulata seeds, and Cyperus rotundus. They help to soothe the liver and regulate Qi, relieving liver Qi stagnation caused by emotional stress. They also have certain daily health care value for people prone to breast nodules.

[0015] Furthermore, the inner surface of the bra cup is designed with several round holes and several strip holes, and the plant particles are embedded in the round holes and strip holes. The strip holes are located at the contact area between the bra cup and the areola, and the round holes surround the strip holes.

[0016] The design of the strip-shaped holes helps the areola area dissipate heat better, and two or more plant particles can be placed in one strip-shaped hole to increase the particle density and improve the massage effect.

[0017] Furthermore, the diameter of the circular holes is less than or equal to the diameter of the plant particles, and the spacing between the circular holes is 3 to 12 millimeters; the width of the strip holes is less than the diameter of the plant particles, and the length is greater than the diameter of the plant particles.

[0018] Furthermore, the circular holes and strip holes are uniformly arranged in a droplet shape.

[0019] Furthermore, the plant particles are semi-circular and exposed on the inner surface of the cup pad.

[0020] This invention also discloses a method for preparing the above-mentioned breathable massage health care cup, comprising the following steps: (1) The plant particles are sun-dried, polished, and sterilized before use; (2) The plant particles processed in step (1) are embedded in the inner surface of the cup pad by pasting and / or extrusion.

[0021] Furthermore, the cup pad is a latex pad, which is formed by injecting latex into a stainless steel cup mold with holes and then pressing and curing it at high temperature. The diameter of the holes is smaller than the diameter of the plant. The plant particles are manually placed in the holes and fixed by the elasticity of the latex.

[0022] Furthermore, highly adhesive natural latex is applied to the corresponding part of each plant particle, and after the plant particles are placed, localized ultraviolet light is used for rapid curing.

[0023] The beneficial effects of this invention are: (1) Plant granules simulate acupressure massage points. When the body moves, the granules move slightly with the chest, generating dynamic pressure and stimulating acupoints around the mammary glands. Long-term wear can promote local blood circulation and relieve discomfort symptoms such as breast tenderness during menstruation. It also has the effects of breathability, pain relief, itch relief, skin moisturizing, anti-oxidation, and enhancing immunity.

[0024] (2) The cup structure of this invention features a precise zoned breathable design. The inner surface of the cup combines round holes and strip holes in a teardrop shape, conforming to the physiological curve of a woman's breasts. The strip holes focus on the sensitive area of ​​the areola, and their elongated structure can quickly dissipate local heat and moisture. The round holes form an auxiliary breathable network around the perimeter, improving the overall breathability efficiency by more than 40% compared to a single round hole structure. The distribution of hole diameter and hole spacing ensures air circulation while preventing a decrease in cup support, achieving a balance between breathability and shaping.

[0025] (3) After being exposed to the sun and polished, the plant particles have a slightly rough surface structure. Combined with the semi-circular exposed design, this allows for the slow release of the ingredients. When in contact with the skin, body temperature and sweat will accelerate the release of the effective ingredients from the particle surface, allowing them to penetrate the body through the skin.

[0026] (4) The firmness of the plant particles is greatly improved by using a dual process of latex elastic fixation and local UV curing. The natural shrinkage force of the latex can tightly wrap the particles in the pores, while UV curing further strengthens the bonding strength between the particles and the latex. After 5,000 simulated wearing tests, the particle detachment rate is less than 1%. Attached Figure Description
