Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of women's underwear technology. More specifically, it relates to an anti-nipple bra cup and an anti-nipple bra. Background Technology

[0002] Most existing quilted bras are 3 / 4 cup or teardrop cups, requiring the cups and shoulder straps to work together to provide support. However, this design has several drawbacks. For example, relying solely on the cups and straps for support concentrates the lifting force on the straps, resulting in limited and uneven support, potentially causing marks and poor stability. Furthermore, the design, in its attempt to prioritize breast curves and comfort, can lead to chest compression. The bras also offer poor breast support and lack breathability. Utility Model Content

[0003] In view of the above problems, one object of this utility model is to provide a bra cup that enhances the lifting effect and improves wearing comfort by preventing nipple protrusion.

[0004] Another objective of this invention is to provide a bra that includes the aforementioned anti-nipple cups.

[0007] The front collar structure, cup body structure, and lower support structure are connected from top to bottom;

[0008] The cup body structure is an L-shaped structure, including a main body extending from the center of the breast to the bend, and a front shoulder strap extending upward from the edge of the main body near the bend. The end of the front shoulder strap away from the main body is used to connect and fix it to the shoulder strap.

[0009] The lower support structure is fixed to the lower edge of the main body, the front collar structure is located between the main body and the front shoulder strap, the lower edge of the front collar structure is fixed to the upper edge of the main body, and the side of the front collar structure away from the center of the neck is fixed to the front shoulder strap.

[0010] The thickness of the front collar structure is less than the thickness of the cup body structure, and the thickness of the lower support structure is less than the thickness of the cup body structure.

[0011] Alternatively, the angle α between the upper edge of the body and the side edge of the front shoulder strap near the center of the neck is 90°-120°.

[0012] Alternatively, the length of the front shoulder strap can be 12-20cm.

[0013] Alternatively, the ratio of the lateral length of the front collar structure to the width of the junction between the front shoulder strap and the body is 2:1.

[0014] Alternatively, the longitudinal width of the body portion can be 5-10 cm.

[0015] Alternatively, the front neckline structure can be made of double-layered fabric, including lace fabric and mesh fabric, wherein the mesh fabric is located on the skin-contact side.

[0016] The cup body structure consists of three layers of fabric, including a surface layer, a cup cotton layer, and an inner layer arranged sequentially, with the thickness of the cup cotton layer being 1.5-3mm;

[0017] The lower support structure is a single-layer mesh fabric;

[0018] The area ratio of the front collar structure, the cup structure, and the lower support structure is 1:2:1;

[0019] The horizontal length of the upper edge of the lower support structure is 5-15cm, and the vertical width of the lower support structure is 2-8cm.

[0020] Alternatively, the cup padding layer can be a two-piece longitudinally segmented structure with the segmentation line coinciding with the princess seam. The cup padding layer includes a first piece and a second piece, with the first piece located on the side of the second piece closer to the center of the gore.

[0021] The second piece includes a first portion connected to the first piece to form the body portion, and a second portion formed by extending upward from the edge of the first portion near the bend.

[0022] A dart is included between the first and second cut pieces, and the dart is gathered by a sewing line;

[0023] The saving distance of the provincial highway is 2-5cm.

[0024] Alternatively, the outer layer may cover the cup cotton layer, and the inner layer may cover the portion of the cup cotton layer corresponding to the main body.

[0025] The stitching of the upper edge of the inner layer and the upper edge of the cup cotton layer is lower than the stitching of the upper edge of the outer layer and the upper edge of the cup cotton layer, and the distance between the two is 5-10mm.

[0026] Alternatively, the top end of the cup structure near the center of the heart is flush with the top of the center of the heart.

[0027] According to another aspect of the present invention, a bra for preventing nipple protrusion is provided, comprising an underband, a back panel, shoulder straps, and two nipple-prevention cups on the left and right sides.

[0028] The beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows:

[0029] To address the technical problems existing in the prior art, this utility model provides an anti-nipple bra cup and anti-nipple bra. Through the reasonable division of the front neckline structure, cup structure and underpinning structure, and the combination of different materials, the cup can achieve the overall visual effect of making the cup appear smaller while ensuring the roundness of the cup shape. It can not only meet the functions of covering the breast and preventing nipple protrusion, but also provide space for sweat wicking and breathability for the breast base, ensuring the breathability and comfort of wearing the bra.

[0030] The integrated L-shaped design of the cup body and front shoulder strap enhances lateral support. By increasing the overall contact area, it significantly improves the bra's lift and gathering effect, ensuring stability after wearing. The one-piece front shoulder strap visually elongates the neck, making the bra more elegant and beautiful. The main body provides the primary coverage and prevents nipple protrusion, effectively avoiding the embarrassment of nipple exposure. It improves the original linear force distribution to area force distribution, greatly increasing wearing comfort while achieving the lifting function. The edge of the front shoulder strap near the center gore is equipped with a lifting rib, further enhancing the lifting force. In addition, the cup cotton layer is divided from the princess seam and utilizes dart transfer to provide ample volume to the highest point of the bust, making the bust appear more rounded and improving the bra's fit.

[0031] The seam between the inner top edge and the cup padding layer of the cup structure is lower than the seam between the outer top edge and the cup padding layer, which makes the bra present a simpler and more seamless appearance and avoids the increased width caused by overlapping seams.

[0032] The top end of the cup structure on the side closest to the center gore is flush with the top of the center gore, so that the left and right cups and the center gore share the force together. The entire product is evenly stressed and has an upward lifting effect, which effectively improves the bra's support for the breasts. Attached Figure Description

[0041] The present invention will now be described in further detail with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are merely illustrative of the present invention and not intended to limit it. Furthermore, it should be noted that, for ease of description, the accompanying drawings show only the parts relevant to the present invention, not the entire structure.

[0042] In the description of this utility model, unless otherwise explicitly specified and limited, the terms "connected," "linked," and "fixed" should be interpreted broadly. For example, they can refer to a fixed connection, a detachable connection, or an integral part; they can refer to a direct connection or an indirect connection through an intermediate medium; they can refer to the internal communication of two components or the interaction between two components. Those skilled in the art can understand the specific meaning of the above terms in this utility model based on the specific circumstances.

[0043] In this invention, unless otherwise expressly specified and limited, the first feature being "above" or "below" the second feature may include direct contact between the first and second features, or contact between the first and second features not being in direct contact but through another feature between them.

[0044] In the description of this embodiment, the terms "upper," "lower," "left," and "right," etc., refer to the orientation or positional relationship shown in the accompanying drawings. They are used only for ease of description and simplification of operation, and do not indicate or imply that the device or element referred to must have a specific orientation, or be constructed and operated in a specific orientation. Therefore, they should not be construed as limitations on this utility model. In addition, the terms "first" and "second" are only used for distinction in description and have no special meaning.

[0045] To address the shortcomings of existing technologies, this utility model provides an anti-protrusion bra cup, combined with... Figure 1-5 As shown, the bra cup includes: a front neckline structure 1, a cup body structure 2, and a lower support structure 3 connected in sequence from top to bottom.

[0046] The cup structure 2 is an L-shaped structure, including a main body 21 extending from the center of the breast to the bend, and a front shoulder strap 22 extending upward from the edge of the main body 21 near the bend. The end of the front shoulder strap 22 away from the main body 21 is used to connect and fix with the shoulder strap 4, and together with the shoulder strap 4, they achieve the lifting function.

[0047] The lower support structure 3 is fixed to the lower edge of the main body 21. The front collar structure 1 is located between the main body 21 and the front shoulder strap 22. The lower edge of the front collar structure 1 is fixed to the upper edge of the main body 21. The side of the front collar structure 1 away from the center of the neck is fixed to the side of the front shoulder strap 22 near the center of the neck.

[0048] The thickness of the front collar structure 1 is less than the thickness of the cup body structure 2, and the thickness of the lower support structure 3 is less than the thickness of the cup body structure 2.

[0049] like Figure 1 As shown, the main body 21 and the front shoulder strap 22 are integrally formed into an L-shaped structure. In a specific embodiment, the angle at the corner of the L-shaped structure formed by the main body 21 and the front shoulder strap 22 ranges from 90° to 120°, that is, the angle α between the upper edge of the main body 21 and the side edge of the front shoulder strap 22 near the center gore ranges from 90° to 120°. Within this angle range, the L-shaped integral structure can better connect the main body 21 and the front shoulder strap 22 into a stable mechanical whole, which can increase the lifting effect on the chest and effectively gather the chest, achieving better gathering and support functions when wearing the bra. When the angle of α is less than 90°, the structure formed by the main body 21 and the front shoulder strap 22 is too curved, which will cause the force transmission between the front shoulder strap 22 and the main body 21 to be unsmooth and affect the overall lifting effect; when the angle of α is greater than 120°, the structure formed by the main body 21 and the front shoulder strap 22 tends to be flat, the lateral thrust is weakened, and it cannot effectively gather the chest.

[0050] In this embodiment, a reasonable value for α can avoid excessive compression of the shoulders and chest due to an angle that is too small, or insufficient support and easy shifting due to an angle that is too large. This allows the bra to fit the body curves better when worn, reduce the burden on the shoulders, avoid problems such as chest compression, and improve the comfort of wearing it, especially reducing the discomfort when wearing it for a long time.

[0051] Furthermore, a suitable value for α allows the main body 21 and the front shoulder strap 22 to work together to visually lengthen the woman's neck, resulting in a more elegant and beautiful wearing effect, and has a certain modifying effect on the neck line. However, an angle below 90° will make the front shoulder of the bra look cramped, ruining the overall aesthetic; an angle greater than 120° will not be able to replicate the visual lengthening effect.

[0052] In one embodiment, the length 'a' of the front shoulder strap 22 ranges from 12 to 20 cm. This length range ensures that the front shoulder strap 22 fits tightly with the main body 21, making the force on the entire bra more even and reasonable, providing stable and strong support for the breasts, effectively improving the lifting and gathering ability, and making the breast lines more beautiful. If the length of the front shoulder strap 22 is too short, with 'a' below 12 cm, the tension will be concentrated in a small area, which will not only result in uneven force on the breasts, affecting the lifting effect, but also easily cause excessive pressure on the shoulders, causing discomfort. On the other hand, if the length of the front shoulder strap 22 is too long, with 'a' exceeding 20 cm, the lifting and gathering effect on the breasts will be weakened, and the breasts will easily sag and spread when the bra is worn, failing to achieve the ideal shaping effect.

[0053] In this embodiment, the reasonable design of the length of the front shoulder strap 22 allows it to better conform to the natural curves of the human shoulder and chest. It avoids being too short, which could constrict the shoulders and cause shoulder pain or poor blood circulation; and it also avoids being too long, which could affect the support and stability of the bra. Furthermore, the length of the front shoulder strap 22, combined with the reasonable angle design of the L-shaped corner, effectively elongates the neck line, making the wearer's neck appear longer and adding to the wearer's elegance. This enhances the bra's aesthetic value while ensuring its functionality, satisfying consumers' demand for both beauty and practicality.

[0054] In one specific embodiment, the lateral length b of the front neckline structure 1 accounts for two-thirds of the front width of the main body 21, and the width c of the junction between the front shoulder strap 22 and the main body 21 accounts for one-third of the front width of the main body 21, wherein b:c = 2:1. This design makes the stress distribution of the bra more scientific. Furthermore, when the bra is equipped with an underwire 5, the stress-bearing parts of the front neckline structure 1 and the front shoulder strap 22 are equivalent to those of the underwire 5.

[0055] The front neckline structure 1 and the front shoulder strap 22 are symmetrical stress-bearing parts with the underwire 5. With the specific proportions of the horizontal length b of the front neckline structure 1 and the width c of the front shoulder strap 22, the support force of the underwire 5 is transmitted to all parts of the chest through a reasonable structure, evenly distributing the weight of the chest. The horizontal length b of the front neckline structure 1 is longer than the width c of the front shoulder strap 22, which can better lift the upper part of the chest. The front shoulder strap 22 plays a role in stabilizing the sides of the chest and preventing the chest from spreading outward, thus comprehensively improving the lifting and gathering effect and shaping a beautiful chest curve.

[0056] In addition, the front neckline structure 1 and the front shoulder strap 22, combined with the underwire 5, allow the bra to better fit the contour of the chest when worn, ensuring stability during daily activities and preventing shifting or slipping.

[0057] In one embodiment, such as Figure 2 As shown, a support root 220 is attached to the edge of the front shoulder strap 22 near the center gore. The support root 220 is located on the side of the cup closest to the skin and is used to enhance the lifting force of the front shoulder strap 22 on the breasts and increase the stability of the bra.

[0058] In one specific embodiment, the longitudinal width d of the body part 21 is 5-10cm, which can effectively cover the nipple and areola, and undertake the covering function of the bra cup and the anti-protrusion effect.

[0059] In one specific embodiment, the front neckline structure 1 is made of double-layered fabric, including lace fabric 11 and mesh fabric 12. Both lace fabric 11 and mesh fabric 12 are sheer fabrics, which can perfectly fit the chest when worn and enhance the breathability of the bra. At the same time, they create a subtly revealing effect, improving the aesthetics of the bra. The mesh fabric 12 is located on the side in contact with the skin, while the lace fabric 11 is located on the outer layer of the cups, serving a decorative purpose.

[0060] The cup structure 2 consists of three layers of fabric, including a face layer 23, a cup padding layer 24, and an inner layer 25 arranged sequentially. The cup padding layer 24 is 1.5-3mm thick and forms the main body of the cup structure 2, making the cup structure 2 more robust. At the same time, the thickness of the cup padding layer 24 can also prevent embarrassment when the nipples protrude.

[0061] The lower support structure 3 uses a single-layer breathable fabric, preferably mesh. The breathable mesh fabric makes the bra lighter and more breathable when worn, providing space for sweat-wicking and ventilation under the chest, ensuring that the bra is not stuffy or sweaty.

[0062] In a specific embodiment, such as Figure 4 As shown, the cup padding layer 24 has a two-piece longitudinally divided structure, with its dividing line coinciding with the princess seam. The cup padding layer 24 includes a first piece 241 and a second piece 242, with the first piece 241 located on the side of the second piece 242 near the center gore area.

[0063] The second piece 242 includes a first part 2421 that is combined with the first piece 241 to form the body part 21, and a second part 2422 that extends upward from the edge of the first part 2421 near the bend.

[0064] The first panel 241 and the second panel 242 are separated by darts 240. Darts 240 are gathered by sewing, forming a three-dimensional structure that conforms to the curve of the bust. The upper and lower dart amounts e and f of darts 240 are both 2-5cm. Compared with traditional cutting methods, by transferring the dart amount to the highest point of the bust (i.e., the nipple point), the volume is increased, making the bust appear more rounded, enhancing the fit of the bra and avoiding chest compression.

[0065] In a specific embodiment, such as Figure 3 As shown, the outer layer 23 covers the entire cup padding layer 24, and the inner layer 25 covers the portion of the cup padding layer 24 corresponding to the main body 21. The seam A between the upper edge of the inner layer 25 and the upper edge of the cup padding layer 24 is lower than the seam B between the upper edge of the outer layer 23 and the upper edge of the cup padding layer 24. This staggered arrangement of seam A and seam B allows the bra to present a cleaner, seamless appearance and avoids the increased width caused by overlapping seams. Specifically, the height difference g between seam A and seam B is 5-10mm. Furthermore, the inner layer 25 should be made of a skin-friendly fabric to ensure wearing comfort.

[0066] In one specific embodiment, the area ratio of the front neckline structure 1, the cup structure 2, and the support structure 3 is 1:2:1. The area of ​​the cup structure 2 occupies half of the total cup area, ensuring both nipple prevention and product stability and support. Through the rational division of the three parts—front neckline structure 1, cup structure 2, and support structure 3—compared to traditional padded bras, this design maintains the roundness of the cup shape, creates a visually smaller bra, and enhances the product's aesthetics and breathability. The L-shaped integrated cup structure 2 further improves the cup's support and gathering performance.

[0067] Furthermore, the horizontal length m of the upper edge of the support structure 3 is 5-15cm, and the vertical width n of the support structure 3 is 2-8cm. The reasonable size distribution allows the bottom of the bra to have enough space for sweat-wicking and breathability without encroaching on the area of ​​the cup structure 2, thus ensuring the bra's coverage function and anti-nipple effect.

[0068] In one specific embodiment, the top end of the cup structure 2 near the center of the cup is flush with the top of the center of the cup, so that the left and right cups and the center of the cup are subjected to force together, and the whole product is subjected to force evenly and has an upward lifting effect.

[0069] Another embodiment of this utility model provides a bra that prevents nipple protrusion, combined with... Figure 5-7 As shown, the bra includes a back band 6, a back panel 7, shoulder straps 4, and two anti-nipple cups provided in the above embodiments, which are connected by the back band 6.

[0070] Obviously, the above embodiments of this utility model are merely examples for clearly illustrating this utility model, and are not intended to limit the implementation of this utility model. For those skilled in the art, other variations or modifications can be made based on the above description. It is impossible to exhaustively list all the implementation methods 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.
