Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of underwear and clothing, and in particular to an anti-deformation wave molded cup. Background Technology
[0002] For example, the Chinese utility model patent with publication number CN 216658247U, entitled "A Bra Molded Cup," specifically uses a cup surface layer, a cup pad, and an inner cup layer bonded together by adhesive. All three layers are made of cellulose fiber free-cut air-layer fabric, which includes a short fiber layer, a heat-melting spandex layer, a filament layer, a heat-melting spandex layer, and a short fiber layer. This utility model provides a bra molded cup using cellulose fiber free-cut air-layer fabric as the cup surface layer, cup pad, and inner cup layer. Its technical features specifically achieve skin-friendly, comfortable, and highly breathable properties, resulting in a comfortable bra that meets the requirements of French bras, teenage bras, maternity bras, and form-fitting bras that emphasize comfort, thus possessing significant market application value. However, it cannot solve the problem of bra edges easily deforming and bending after prolonged wear, especially the wavy cup edges, while ensuring good breathability.
[0003] For example, Chinese utility model patent CN 205492655U, entitled "A Bra Cup Mold," specifically uses a fabric layer, a middle layer, and a base layer, which are sequentially bonded together. An underwire is located near the edge of the middle layer, and an adhesive strip is fitted over the outer surface of the underwire, extending beyond the ends of the underwire. The ends of the adhesive strip are sealed to the underwire through heat pressing. The inner wall of the adhesive strip is tightly sealed to the periphery of the underwire, and the outer wall is tightly sealed to the middle layer. This technical solution increases the stability of the underwire, making it less prone to rotation and less likely to slip out of the cup during washing. The underwire's shaping and support prevents pressure on the breasts, enhancing the support effect of the cup and improving wearer comfort. However, it does not solve the problem of bra edges easily deforming and bending after prolonged wear, especially the wavy cup edges, while maintaining good breathability. Therefore, this application is filed. Utility Model Content
[0004] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, this utility model discloses an anti-deformation wave molded cup, which includes a molded cup body. The molded cup body is composed of a cup surface layer, a sponge layer and a cup inner layer. The sponge layer is sandwiched between the cup surface layer and the cup inner layer to form a filling structure with thickness. The thickness of the sponge layer decreases from the lower cup bowl to the upper cup bowl. A thin section is formed at the upper cup bowl position to transition between the molded cup and the breast. The edge of the upper cup bowl is continuously wavy. A shaping interlayer is sandwiched in the middle of the sponge layer at the upper cup bowl. The shaping interlayer is a fabric without stretching deformation and is a strip with a uniform width, matching the undulation of the wavy edge of the upper cup bowl.
[0005] Specifically, the main body of the molded cup is an integrated molded cup, including a cup body, a chin, side panels, and ear flaps. A second shaping layer is sandwiched inside the sponge layer in the chin and side panels. The second shaping layer is made of non-elastic fabric and has the same shape and area as the chin and side panels, forming a non-elastic sandwich structure that completely covers the chin and side panels.
[0006] Specifically, at the edge of the bend between the upper side of the molded cup body and the ear, a shaping interlayer three is sandwiched in the middle of the sponge layer. The shaping interlayer three is an arc-shaped strip of fabric that matches the edge of the bend and does not have a stretching deformation.
[0007] Specifically, the shaping interlayer is connected to the end of the shaping interlayer three near the ear, forming a linkage structure at the ear that can simultaneously pull the edge of the cup / bowl and the edge of the bend.
[0008] Specifically, the interval between the edge of the shaping interlayer and the edge of the upper cup bowl, and the interval between the three edges of the shaping interlayer and the edge of the bend are all 3-5mm.
[0009] Specifically, the width of the shaping interlayer is 22-25mm, and the width of the third shaping interlayer is 13-25mm.
[0010] Specifically, the weave direction of both the shaping interlayer and the shaping interlayer three is their length direction.
[0011] Specifically, the end of the shaping interlayer near the chin is connected to the edge of the second shaping interlayer, and the end of the third shaping interlayer near the side is connected to the edge of the second shaping interlayer.
[0012] Specifically, the inner layer of the cup is a breathable fabric with several evenly arranged holes, and the holes are filled with a mesh.
[0013] Advantages and effects
[0014] This utility model molded cup increases the coverage area of the molded cup at the rim of the bowl by setting the edge of the upper cup to a wavy shape, which enhances the feeling of being wrapped up and also has a certain aesthetic appeal. By setting a shaping interlayer at the edge, the molded cup's support and shaping effect during use is improved, and the deformation problem at the edge after prolonged wear or multiple washes can also be effectively improved, thus extending the life of the molded cup.

[0024] In the claims, description and accompanying drawings of this utility model, the terms "comprising", "having", and variations thereof are used to mean "including but not limited to".
[0025] This utility model relates to an anti-deformation wave molded cup, which includes a molded cup body 1. The molded cup body 1 is composed of a cup surface layer 11, a sponge layer 12 and a cup inner layer 13. The sponge layer 12 is sandwiched between the cup surface layer 11 and the cup inner layer 13 to form a filling structure with thickness. The thickness of the sponge layer 12 decreases from the lower cup bowl to the upper cup bowl. A thin section is formed at the upper cup bowl position to transition between the molded cup and the breast. The edge of the upper cup bowl is continuously wave-shaped. A shaping interlayer 14 is sandwiched in the middle of the sponge layer 12 located at the upper cup bowl. The shaping interlayer 14 is a fabric without stretching deformation. The shaping interlayer 14 is a strip with a uniform width and matches the undulation of the wave edge of the upper cup bowl. The molded cup of this utility model uses a three-layer structure: a skin-contact inner cup layer 13, an outer cup surface layer 11, and a sponge layer 12 sandwiched between the two. The upper cup bowl edge of the molded cup body 1 is wavy. The wavy shape enhances the aesthetics of the molded cup and increases the area covered by the cup, reducing the risk of slippage. It also improves the fit and shaping effect. However, the wavy upper cup bowl edge lengthens the overall length of the upper cup bowl edge. A longer cup bowl edge is more prone to deformation after prolonged wear, including edge curling and arching, resulting in a decreased fit to the breast. This not only makes it uncomfortable to wear but also reduces the shaping effect and aesthetics. The molded cup of this utility model adopts a thicker bottom and thinner top structure, especially at the upper cup bowl edge, to achieve this. The transition between the upper cup and the breast is smoother. The thin structure used at the edge of the upper cup makes this area more prone to deformation after prolonged wear. This invention addresses this issue by sandwiching a shaping layer 14 between the sponge layer 12 at the edge of the upper cup. The shaping layer 14 has no stretching deformation, preventing the edge of the upper cup from being stretched. When worn, the reduced deformation at the edge of the upper cup improves the cup's ability to wrap around the breast and enhances its shaping and maintenance capabilities. Furthermore, the shaping layer 14 helps maintain the shape of the cup edge even after prolonged wear and washing. Deformation and arching at the edge are caused by excessive stretching of the cup, resulting in loss of fabric elasticity and an inability to return to its initial state. The shaping layer 14 prevents excessive stretching, maintaining the shape of the cup, avoiding deformation of the upper cup edge, and preserving the cup's aesthetic appeal.
[0026] The molded cup body 1 is a one-piece molded cup, including the cup body 2, chin 3, side panels 4, and ear flaps 5. A second shaping layer 15 is sandwiched within the sponge layer 12 inside the chin 3 and side panels 4. The second shaping layer 15 is made of non-elastic fabric and has the same shape and area as the chin 3 and side panels 4, forming a non-elastic sandwich structure that completely covers the chin 3 and side panels 4. Compared to a single-cup molded cup, the one-piece molded cup offers a better fit and more natural movement. The chin 3, integrated with the cup body 2, fits snugly under the bust, providing good breast support and further enhancing the shaping and holding effect of the cup body 2. The side panels 4 on the one-piece molded cup also provide good support for the underarm area. However, the underarm area is prone to sweat accumulation, and a thicker structure can cause a strong feeling of foreign objects. A thicker structure for the side panels, on the other hand, can... The seamless effect is not good when worn, so the chin 3 and side panel 4 of this utility model use a thinner sponge layer 12 for better wearing effect. At the same time, the shaping interlayer 15 is sandwiched in the middle of the sponge layer 12, which can keep the chin 3 and side panel 4 in shape. When used in a bra, it can maintain its shape even when pulled up, and can keep its position completely close to the skin, thereby improving the support and shaping effect. On the other hand, it can maintain its state after being pulled for a long time, preventing deformation and extending its service life.
[0027] At the bend edge between the upper part 4 and the ear piece 5 of the molded cup body 1, a shaping interlayer 3 16 is sandwiched in the middle of the sponge layer 12. The shaping interlayer 3 16 is an arc-shaped strip of fabric that matches the edge of the bend edge and does not have a stretching deformation. The one-piece molded cup body 1 of this utility model has an ear piece 5, which can be directly connected to the bra shoulder strap during use, so that the molded cup is directly subjected to force, improving the shaping and stability and preventing displacement. At the same time, the force is applied to the edge of the bend edge of the molded cup body 1. The shaping interlayer 3 16 is set at the edge of the bend edge, so that when pulled by the shoulder strap, the lifting and supporting effect of the molded cup on the breast is more direct, improving the support performance of the molded cup.
[0028] The shaping interlayer 14 and the shaping interlayer three 16 are connected at the end near the ear 5, forming a linkage structure at the ear 5 that can simultaneously pull the edge of the upper cup bowl and the edge of the cup bend. Specifically, the connection structure is such that the length of the end connecting section of the shaping interlayer three 16 is greater than the length of the end connecting section of the shaping interlayer 14. This structure allows more pulling force to be applied to the side of the cup bend when the ear 5 of the molded cup is pulled by the shoulder strap, while the upper cup bowl only experiences slight movement. This makes the side support and side breast-gathering function of the molded cup more significant when worn, giving the molded cup a better effect of gathering the breasts towards the center, while the edge of the upper cup bowl can also remain close to the breast, ensuring wearing comfort.
[0029] In this utility model, the shaping interlayer 14, the second shaping interlayer 15, and the third shaping interlayer 16 are all shaping yarn fabrics.
[0030] Since it is an integrated molded cup, in order to improve the connection effect and seamless effect between the edge of the upper cup bowl and the chest when wearing this utility model molded cup, the interval between the edge of the shaping layer 14 and the edge of the upper cup bowl, and the interval between the edge of the shaping layer 3 16 and the edge of the bend are all 3-5mm. Setting this edge width can ensure that the edge of the molded cup can fit tightly against the chest after stretching. If the edge interval is too large, the problem of edge deformation will still occur, so even if the shaping layer is set, it cannot achieve the effect of anti-deformation. If it is less than this interval, the connection effect between the edge and the skin is poor, and it is easy to cause the edge to curl up in the opposite direction due to stretching, which reduces the aesthetics and wearing comfort.
[0031] The width of the shaping interlayer 14 on the molded cup body is 22-25mm, and the width of the shaping interlayer 16 is 13-25mm. Since the edge of the upper cup is longer, using a wider shaping interlayer can ensure the effect of anti-deformation, while not reducing the overall elasticity and softness of the molded cup. While ensuring the edge anti-deformation effect, it ensures the comfort of wearing other parts of the molded cup, and the middle part maintains a three-layer state, so that the breathability of the molded cup will not be reduced due to the addition of shaping layers.
[0032] The fabric grain direction of both the shaping interlayer 14 and the shaping interlayer 3 16 is along their length. The shaping yarn fabric is arranged in this way so that the long edge is in the straight yarn direction. The straight yarn direction is the non-elastic direction, which can limit the elasticity of the bowl, shoulder, and bottom.
[0033] The end of the shaping interlayer 14 near the chin 3 is connected to the edge of the second shaping interlayer 15, and the end of the third shaping interlayer 16 near the side 4 is connected to the edge of the second shaping interlayer 15. The ends of the shaping interlayer 14 and the third shaping interlayer 16 are connected by a stacked connection method, forming an overlapping area at the connection point. This connection method ensures that there are no gaps at the connection points and also improves the connection strength. With the three shaping interlayers connected to each other, the edge of the molded cup body 1 forms a complete anti-deformation structure, so that there are no gaps when it is stretched during wearing, which would cause the molded cup to stretch and deform.
[0034] To further improve the breathability of the molded cup, the inner layer 13 is a breathable fabric with several evenly arranged holes 131, and the holes 131 are filled with mesh. Using a mesh inner layer fabric can effectively improve the breathability of the molded cup when worn and can effectively reduce the problem of stuffiness and sweat accumulation. Specifically, the fabric of the inner layer 13 is a bird's-eye warp-knitted mesh fabric.
[0035] Obviously, the above embodiments of this utility model are merely examples for clearly illustrating this utility model, and are not intended to limit the embodiments of this utility model. Those skilled in the art can make other variations or modifications based on the above description. It is impossible to exhaustively list all embodiments here. All obvious variations or modifications derived from the technical solutions of this utility model are still within the protection scope of this utility model.
