Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of underwire bras, and more specifically, to an underwire bra with a sleeve. Background Technology

[0002] The main functions of underwire bras include support, shaping, and enhancing comfort: 1. Support: Underwires provide extra support, making the breasts firmer and more shapely, helping to prevent sagging. 2. Shaping: Underwires help shape and enhance the breast curves, making the breasts appear fuller and tighter, while also making the waist appear longer. 3. Stability: Underwires maintain the shape of the bra, preventing sagging or deformation, ensuring the bra's shape remains stable after prolonged wear. 4. Comfort: While underwires may cause some restriction, well-designed underwire bras can improve overall comfort, reducing friction and discomfort. Based on this, many bra manufacturers now produce underwire bras. In existing bras, the underwire is wrapped and secured by the inner layer of fabric in the cups. For example, in common bra structures, the underwire is placed at the edge of the cup, and the inner layer of fabric is sewn around the underwire or uses special processes to make it fit tightly, thus fixing the underwire in a specific position. However, after prolonged wear and washing, the underwire of this type of bra can wear down the surrounding fabric and even puncture the bra. Utility Model Content

[0003] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, this utility model provides a bra underwire with a sleeve, which can prevent the underwire from puncturing the bra.

[0004] The technical solution adopted by this utility model is a bra underwire with a sleeve, comprising an arc-shaped sleeve and a steel ring, wherein the sleeve is made of flexible material and has side walls and a cavity, the cross-sectional area of ​​which is larger than the cross-sectional area of ​​the steel ring, and the sleeve is provided with sealing parts at both ends, forming a middle part between the sealing parts; the length of the middle part is greater than the length of the steel ring, and the steel ring is disposed in the middle part of the sleeve.

[0005] This invention places the underwire inside a sleeve, which is then fixed inside the bra fabric, preventing direct contact between the underwire and the fabric, thus reducing the risk of wear and tear and puncture. Sealing both ends of the sleeve prevents the underwire from protruding and puncturing the bra. The cross-sectional area of ​​the cavity is larger than that of the underwire, and the length of the middle section is greater than the length of the underwire, allowing the underwire to move slightly within the middle cavity to adjust to a more comfortable fit on the chest, thereby improving comfort.

[0006] Furthermore, the ratio of the cross-sectional area of ​​the steel ring to the cross-sectional area of ​​the sleeve cavity is 1 / 4 to 3 / 4.

[0007] The underwire is placed inside the cavity of the sleeve. If the cross-sectional area of ​​the underwire is less than 1 / 4 of the cross-sectional area of ​​the sleeve cavity, the gap between the underwire and the sleeve is too large, and the underwire moves too much within the sleeve, affecting its effectiveness. If the cross-sectional area of ​​the underwire is greater than 3 / 4 of the cross-sectional area of ​​the sleeve cavity, the gap between the underwire and the sleeve is too small. Even after the fabric is wrapped and fixed to the sleeve, it will still be affected by the underwire, causing wear and tear on the fabric around the underwire during wearing and washing.

[0008] Furthermore, the length of the middle part of the sleeve is 2mm to 10mm longer than the length of the steel ring.

[0009] If the length of the middle section of the sleeve is less than 2mm longer than the length of the underwire, the distance between the two ends of the underwire and the inner end face of the sealing part will be too small. During washing, the two ends of the underwire will act on the inner end face of the sealing part, which may puncture the sealing part or the sleeve. If the length of the middle section of the sleeve is more than 10mm longer than the length of the underwire, the underwire will move too much along the tube, which will affect the support and shaping effect of the underwire.

[0010] Furthermore, the sidewall thickness of the sleeve is 0.3mm to 2mm.

[0011] If the sidewall thickness of the sleeve is too small, the sleeve is easily punctured. If the sidewall thickness of the sleeve is too large, the rigidity of the sleeve will increase, and the comfort will be affected after the sleeve is wrapped and fixed inside the fabric.

[0012] Furthermore, the maximum width of the sleeve is 2mm to 5mm.

[0013] The underwire is flat and round. The maximum width of the sleeve must be larger than the maximum width of the underwire, with a certain margin. The sleeve is located at the bottom of the cup, and the underwire is below the sleeve when worn. If the maximum width of the sleeve is too large, the underwire will be too far from the cup, thus affecting its support effect.

[0014] Furthermore, the length of the sealing part is between 1.5mm and 6mm.

[0015] The sealing section is harder than the rest of the sleeve, which can affect comfort; therefore, the sealing section should not be too long. During washing, the underwire will move within the sleeve, and if the sealing section is too short, the ends of the underwire may puncture it.

[0016] Furthermore, the sealing part has an inner end face and an outer end face, the side facing the middle part is the inner end face, and the side away from the middle part is the outer end face. There is a certain gap between the outer end face of the sealing part and the end face of the sleeve, and the outer end face of the sealing part is a concave surface.

[0017] The sealing section has an inner end face and an outer end face. The side facing the middle is defined as the inner end face, and the side away from the middle is defined as the outer end face. The sealing section is relatively hard. If there is no gap between the outer end face of the sealing section and the end face of the sleeve, both ends of the sleeve will be hard, and the two ends of the steel ring acting on the sealing section may cause the sleeve to puncture the fabric. By making the outer end face of the sealing section concave, leaving a certain gap between the outer end face and the end face of the sleeve, the two ends of the sleeve are made softer, which can reduce the risk of the sleeve puncturing the fabric.

[0018] Furthermore, the inner end face of the sealing part is a slope.

[0019] During the washing process, the underwire of the bra moves within the sleeve. The two ends of the underwire act on the inner end face of the sealing part. If the inner end face is flat, the two ends of the underwire act perpendicularly to it, resulting in a greater force on the inner end face and a higher risk of puncture. By making the inner end face beveled, the force is dispersed when the two ends of the underwire act on it, reducing the force on the inner end face and thus lowering the risk of puncture.

[0020] Furthermore, the gap between the outer end face of the sealing part and the end face of the sleeve is 1mm to 5mm.

[0021] If the gap between the outer end face of the sealing part and the end face of the sleeve is too small, the ends of the sleeve will be too hard, increasing the risk of puncturing the fabric. If the gap between the outer end face of the sealing part and the end face of the sleeve is too large, more water may accumulate inside during the washing of the bra.

[0022] Furthermore, both ends of the steel ring are covered with rubber sleeves.

[0023] Steel rings are generally thin or narrow, and their ends remain sharp even after treatment. During washing, the curved ends of the steel ring can easily puncture the sleeve. The rubber sleeve has a certain degree of elasticity and can act as a buffer between the steel ring and the sleeve, thereby reducing the risk of the steel ring easily puncturing the sleeve.

[0024] Compared with existing technologies, the advantages of this invention are as follows: The steel ring is placed within the cavity of the sleeve, with sealing portions at both ends of the sleeve. The sleeve is then wrapped and fixed within the bra fabric, allowing the steel ring to provide support and shaping while also isolating itself from the fabric, preventing wear and punctures. By limiting the ratio of the steel ring's cross-sectional area to the cavity's cross-sectional area, a certain gap is maintained between the steel ring and the sleeve. This prevents the gap from being too small, which would cause excessive stress concentration and wear on the fabric around the steel ring, or too large, which would result in excessive movement of the steel ring and affect its support and shaping effects. By limiting the length of the middle section and the steel ring, as well as the length and inner end face shape of the sealing portions, and by providing rubber sleeves at both ends of the steel ring, the steel ring is prevented from puncturing the guide tube or sealing portions during wear and washing. The outer end face of the sealing part is set as a concave surface, leaving a certain gap between it and the end face of the sleeve, so as to ensure the flexibility of both ends of the sleeve and prevent the sleeve from puncturing the bra fabric.

Those skilled in the art can understand the specific meaning of the above terms according to the specific circumstances.

[0030] The accompanying drawings are for illustrative purposes only and should not be construed as limiting the scope of this invention. To better illustrate the following embodiments, some components in the drawings may be omitted, enlarged, or reduced, and do not represent the actual dimensions of the product. It is understandable to those skilled in the art that some well-known structures and their descriptions may be omitted in the drawings.

[0031] like Figure 1 As shown, a bra underwire with a sleeve includes a sleeve 1 and a steel ring 2. Both the sleeve 1 and the steel ring 2 are arc-shaped. The sleeve 1 has a sealing part 11 at both ends, and a middle part 12 is formed between the sealing parts 11. The steel ring is placed inside the middle part 12. The steel ring 2 has rubber sleeves 21 at both ends to prevent the ends of the steel ring 2 from piercing the sleeve 1 or the sealing part 11.

[0032] like Figure 2 As shown, the sleeve 1 is made of flexible material with a maximum cross-sectional area D between 2mm and 6mm. The sleeve 1 has a sidewall 13 and a cavity 14. The thickness d of the sidewall 13 of the sleeve 1 is 0.3mm to 2mm. The cross-sectional area of ​​the sleeve cavity 14 is larger than the cross-sectional area of ​​the steel ring 2. Specifically, the ratio of the cross-sectional area of ​​the steel ring 2 to the cross-sectional area of ​​the cavity 14 is between 1 / 4 and 3 / 4. The length of the middle part 12 is greater than the length of the steel ring 2. Specifically, the length of the middle part 12 is 2mm to 10mm longer than the length of the steel ring 2. The steel ring 2 is disposed within the cavity of the middle part 12 of the sleeve.

[0033] like Figure 3 As shown, both ends of the sleeve 1 are sealed with glue to form a sealing part 11. The sealing part 11 is relatively hard, therefore, the length of the sealing part 11 should not be too long to avoid affecting comfort. The length of the sealing part 11 should also not be too short to prevent the steel ring from puncturing the sealing part. Therefore, the length D1 of the sealing part 11 is set between 1.5mm and 6mm. The sealing part 11 has an inner end face 111 and an outer end face 112. The side facing the middle part 12 is the inner end face 111, and the side away from the middle part 12 is the outer end face 112. Because a steel ring 2 is installed inside the middle part 12, during washing, the two ends of the steel ring 2 may act on the inner end face 111 of the sealing part 11. If the inner end face 111 is flat, the two ends of the steel ring 2 will act perpendicularly on the inner end face 111, causing it to be subjected to greater force and increasing the risk of puncture. Therefore, the inner end face 111 is set as a slope. When the two ends of the steel ring 2 act on the inner end face 111, the slope can decompose the force. The outer end face 112 of the sealing part 11 is set as a concave surface, and a certain gap is left between it and the end face of the sleeve 1 to ensure the flexibility of the two ends of the sleeve and prevent it from puncturing the bra fabric. Preferably, the gap d1 between the outer end face 112 of the sealing part 11 and the end face of the sleeve is 1mm to 5mm.
