Description
Technical Field
[0001] This application relates to the field of bra and underwear technology, and in particular to an integrated cup bra and vest. Background Technology
[0002] The bra cup is the main body of the bra, playing an important role in supporting, shaping, enhancing, and beautifying the breasts. A full-coverage bra can completely enclose the breasts within the cup, providing support, lift, and a lifted effect, making it the most functional type of bra cup. It is suitable for all body types, especially those with full and soft breasts.
[0003] Currently, there are two main issues with women's bra choices: some bras offer support but are uncomfortable, while others are comfortable but lack shape. It's difficult to find a bra with a comfortable yet supportive cup. To address these persistent problems, there is an urgent need to invent a new type of soft, healthy, comfortable, and highly conforming one-piece cup. Utility Model Content
[0004] In order to improve the shortcomings of existing bras and enhance their comfort, breathability, and fit, this application provides a one-piece cup bra.
[0005] Firstly, the integrated cup bra provided in this application adopts the following technical solution:
[0006] An integrated cup bra includes an outer layer, a sponge intermediate layer, and a skin-contact layer arranged sequentially. The sponge intermediate layer is disposed between the outer layer and the skin-contact layer, and the skin-contact layer covers the inner surface of the sponge intermediate layer. The outer layer covers the outer surface of the sponge intermediate layer. The sponge intermediate layer is formed by pressing high-elasticity sponge, and both the skin-contact layer and the outer layer are made of moisture-wicking yarn. The inner surface of the skin-contact layer is provided with a cup mold.
[0007] By adopting the above technical solution, the middle layer of the sponge is made of highly elastic sponge that does not contain TDI. It is highly elastic and possesses superior properties compared to the PU sponge in traditional bras, including better breathability, lighter weight, and resistance to yellowing. It is also softer and has a better, more stable structural density for the same area, fully embodying the characteristics of safety, environmental protection, and health. Both the skin-contact layer and the outer layer are made of moisture-wicking yarn, and the yarn fabric is woven with a mesh structure, giving the entire one-piece skin-contact quilt superior softness, health benefits, breathability, and skin-contact properties, like a second skin, providing a comfortable and breathable environment for the breasts.
[0008] Preferably, the cup-shaped mold is formed using a 3D three-dimensional mold.
[0009] By employing the aforementioned technical solution, 3D molding can precisely create a three-dimensional shape that matches the bra cups, based on their specific shape and ergonomic principles. This precise fit better adapts to the body curves of different individuals, providing a more comfortable wearing experience while ensuring the bra's support and coverage of the breasts, reducing shifting and discomfort.
[0010] Meanwhile, because 3D molding can better conform to the curves of the human body, it reduces gaps and friction between the bra cups and the body, thereby reducing discomfort when wearing it. In addition, 3D molding can also adjust the depth and angle of the molding according to different fabric characteristics and wearing needs, making the bra cups softer and more breathable, further improving comfort.
[0011] Preferably, the skin-adhesive layer is shaped using a mesh adhesive film in the areas on both sides and bottom of the cup-shaped mold.
[0012] By adopting the above technical solution and using a thin mesh film shaping process, the comfort of the skin-contact layer when in contact with the chest can be improved, and it is not easy to deform during wear, thus ensuring aesthetics.
[0013] Preferably, the skin-adhesive layer has a planar crescent shape, which is located at the bottom of both sides of the cup-position molding. There are two planar crescent shapes symmetrically arranged, and both are located between the cup-position molding and the mesh film. The planar crescent shape is used to support the breast.
[0014] By adopting the above technical solution, the planar crescent structure is an additional structure added to the cup mold. It is formed by the mold and does not appear flat in the cup shape. This crescent structure can increase the support of the side bottom of the breast, has the characteristic of supporting the breast, and reduces sagging.
[0015] Preferably, the base circumference of the skin-adhesive layer is 28.5cm, the cup width of the skin-adhesive layer is 19.3cm, the lateral bone height of the skin-adhesive layer is 9.3cm, and the BP point thickness of the skin-adhesive layer is 4mm.
[0016] By adopting the above technical solution, the above values are designed for size S cotton cups. These values were obtained through fitting tests on different breast shapes. Therefore, the cups will fit the breasts more closely, making the breast shape look more natural, while preventing gaping and shifting. The 3D molded cotton cups are lightweight, weighing 40% less than ordinary cotton cups under the same performance conditions.
[0017] Preferably, a shaping bend is provided between the middle layer of the sponge and the outer layer, and the shaping bend is located at the upper part of the cup mold.
[0018] By adopting the above technical solution, the shaping strip has the ability to bend and shape. The wearer can apply force to bend the shaping strip to a suitable arc, which can provide extra support for the chest, help reduce the burden on the shoulders and back, prevent the chest from sagging, and make the woman's chest more upright.
[0019] In addition, the shaping curves enhance the stability of the cups, making them less prone to deformation or shifting during wear, maintaining a good wearing effect, and ensuring that the bra effectively wraps and protects the breasts even during sports or daily activities.
[0020] Preferably, the outer layer has a raised strip sewn on the side facing the middle layer of the sponge, and a corresponding groove is provided on the middle layer of the sponge. The raised strip is engaged in the groove, and the outer layer and the outer periphery of the skin-adhesive layer are sewn together.
[0021] By employing the above technical solution, the convex strips and grooves cooperate to increase the contact area between the outer layer and the sponge interlayer, thereby improving the connection stability. The outer layer and the skin-adhesive layer are sewn together, thus fixing the sponge interlayer between the outer layer and the skin-adhesive layer.
[0022] Secondly, this application also provides a vest, which adopts the following technical solution:
[0023] A vest includes an integrated cup bra, elastic back straps, and a vest body, all of the above-described structures. The integrated cup bra is disposed on the vest body, and the elastic back straps are connected to the integrated cup bra.
[0024] In summary, this application includes at least one of the following beneficial technical effects:
[0025] (1) The high-elasticity sponge is more breathable, lighter, less prone to yellowing and more elastic than the PU sponge in traditional bras, which makes the bra have the characteristics of ultra-light weight, ultra-softness, strong stretch and no deformation after 50 washes.
[0026] (2) The polyester fabric on the surface of the cotton cup is woven with a mesh structure, which is breathable. At the same time, the fabric is made with a special process to make it softer. The surface that comes into contact with human skin is softer, more delicate and skin-friendly than traditional fabrics.
[0027] (3) By redesigning the BP value and base circumference of the cup mold to suit the breast shape characteristics of Asian women, it fits the breast better than ordinary bras, making the breast shape more natural and preventing empty cups from slipping. Attached Figure Description

[0039] The following detailed description of some embodiments of this application is provided in conjunction with the accompanying drawings. Without conflict, those skilled in the art can combine and integrate the different embodiments or examples shown in this application, as well as the features of those embodiments or examples.
[0040] This application discloses an integrated cup bra. (Refer to...) Figures 1 to 3 The one-piece bra comprises an outer layer 1, a sponge interlayer 2, and a skin-contact layer 3, arranged sequentially. The sponge interlayer 2 is positioned between the outer layer 1 and the skin-contact layer 3, with the skin-contact layer 3 covering the inner surface of the sponge interlayer 2, and the outer layer 1 covering the outer surface of the sponge interlayer 2. The sponge interlayer 2 is made of highly elastic sponge that is free of TDI, offering superior elasticity and properties compared to the PU sponge used in traditional bras. It is more breathable, lighter, and less prone to yellowing than PU sponge used in traditional bras. It is also softer and has a better, more stable structural density for the same area, fully embodying safety, environmental friendliness, and health benefits. Both the skin-contact layer 3 and the outer layer 1 are made of moisture-wicking yarn, and the yarn fabric is woven with a mesh structure, giving the entire one-piece bra superior softness, health benefits, breathability, and skin-contact properties, providing a comfortable and breathable environment for the breasts, like a second skin.
[0041] The inner surface of the skin-contact layer 3 is provided with a cup-position molding 4. Specifically, the cup-position molding 4 is formed using 3D molding, which can precisely shape a three-dimensional shape that matches the bra cup according to the specific shape of the cup and ergonomic principles. The areas of the skin-contact layer 3 located on both sides and at the bottom of the cup-position molding 4 are shaped using a mesh film 6. The use of a thin mesh film 6 for shaping improves the comfort of the skin-contact layer 3 when in contact with the breast, and it is not easily deformed during wear, ensuring aesthetics.
[0042] The skin-adhesive layer 3 also features flat crescent-shaped structures 5, located on both sides of the cup-position molding 4 near the bottom. These crescent-shaped structures are additional features added to the cup-position mold, formed by the mold, and are not visible in the cup's appearance, appearing flat. Two flat crescent-shaped structures 5 are symmetrically positioned, both between the cup-position molding 4 and the mesh fabric film 6. Both flat crescent-shaped structures 5 support the breasts, increasing the support force on the sides and reducing sagging.
[0043] Combination Figure 4In this embodiment, the base circumference A of the skin-contact layer 3 is 28.5cm (the base circumference refers to the length of the underbust band of the bra, which is an important indicator for measuring bra size), the cup width B of the skin-contact layer 3 is 19.3cm (the cup width refers to the width of the bra cup in the left-right direction), the side bone height C of the skin-contact layer 3 is 9.3cm (the side bone height in a bra refers to the height of the side wings (side panels) from the underbust to the armpit), and the BP point thickness of the skin-contact layer 3 is 4mm (the BP value of the bra cup refers to the relevant value of the bust point position on the bra cup. It usually involves parameters such as the height and position of the bust point and is a key measurement indicator in bra design and manufacturing). The above values are designed for size S cotton cup size, and these values are the final results obtained through fitting tests on different breast shapes. Therefore, the fit will be more snug, the breast shape will look more natural, and it can prevent the cup from shifting or slipping. The 3D molded cotton cup is lightweight and weighs 40% less than a regular cotton cup under the same performance conditions.
[0044] In some embodiments, a shaping strip is provided between the sponge interlayer 2 and the outer layer 1, located at the lower edge of the cup-shaped molding 4. The shaping strip has the ability to bend and shape, allowing the wearer to apply force to bend it to a suitable arc, providing additional support for the chest, helping to reduce the burden on the shoulders and back, and preventing breast sagging. Furthermore, several protruding strips are sewn onto the side of the outer layer 1 facing the sponge interlayer 2, and the sponge interlayer 2 has correspondingly opened grooves. The protruding strips engage with the grooves, and the interaction between the protruding strips and the grooves increases the contact area between the outer layer 1 and the sponge interlayer 2, improving connection stability. The outer peripheries of the outer layer 1 and the skin-adhesive layer 3 are sewn together, thus fixing the sponge interlayer 2 between the outer layer 1 and the skin-adhesive layer 3.
[0045] The implementation principle of the one-piece cup bra in this application embodiment is as follows: the middle layer 2 of the sponge is made of high-elasticity TDI-free sponge, manufactured through a professional pressing process. Compared with the PU sponge used in traditional bras, this material exhibits significant advantages in performance: it has excellent elasticity, greatly improved breathability, a lighter texture, and excellent anti-yellowing properties. From a physical perspective, under the same area conditions, this sponge feels softer to the touch, has a uniform and stable structural density, and fully demonstrates its safety, environmental protection, and health characteristics.
[0046] Both the skin-contact layer 3 and the outer layer 1 are meticulously crafted from moisture-wicking yarns and precisely woven with a mesh structure. This unique fabric structure endows the one-piece skin-contact comforter with multi-dimensional superior characteristics: it not only possesses an exceptionally soft touch but also effectively ensures the health of the wearer, with particularly outstanding breathability and skin-contact performance. When worn, it fits like a second skin, creating a comfortable and breathable ideal environment for the breasts.
[0047] Based on the above embodiments, such as Figure 5 and Figure 6 As shown in the illustration, this application also provides a vest, which includes an elastic back strap 7, a vest body 8, and an integrated cup bra with all the above-described structures. The integrated cup bra and the vest body 8 are fixedly connected. The elastic back strap 7 has good elasticity and is connected to the integrated cup bra. Since the structure of the integrated cup bra has been discussed in detail above, it will not be repeated here.
[0048] The above are all preferred embodiments of this application, and are not intended to limit the scope of protection of this application. Therefore, all equivalent changes made in accordance with the structure, shape and principle of this application should be covered within the scope of protection of this application.
