[0031] To facilitate understanding of the front-opening bra provided in this application embodiment, its application scenario is first described. The front-opening bra provided in this application embodiment can be used as underwear, especially as women's underwear. With the accelerating pace of life and women's pursuit of convenience, front-opening bras are gradually gaining market favor. The front-opening bra is put on through the front connection structure, making it convenient for women to operate themselves and improving the ease of wearing.

[0032] In related technologies, front-opening bras often use snaps to connect the two cups in the middle of the chest. However, since front-opening bras are usually worn tightly, the snaps are prone to breaking open when the body moves a lot, resulting in poor stability of the connection between the two cups.

[0033] Based on this, this application provides a front-opening bra, which aims to improve the connection stability between the two cups. The front-opening bra provided in this application will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0034] refer to Figure 1 , Figure 1 This is a schematic diagram of the front-opening bra in an embodiment of this application. The front-opening bra provided in this application includes two cups 1. The back part of the front-opening bra can be a single piece, and a connecting component is provided at the center front line of the front-opening bra between the two cups 1. The two cups 1 can be separated from the center front line for the user to wear the front-opening bra. After wearing, the two cups 1 can be connected together by the connecting component located at the center front line.

[0035] The connecting assembly includes at least one snap 2 and at least one hook 3, which are spaced apart along the length of the center front line of the front-opening bra. The center front line of the front-opening bra is the direction of body height. The snaps 2 and hooks 3 can be arranged in any way along the length of the center front line, and the snaps 2 and hooks 3 can be aligned or staggered in the direction of body width.

[0036] Both snaps 2 and hooks 3 are used to connect the ends of the two cups 1 near the center front line of the front-opening bra. Specifically, snaps 2 and hooks 3 can each include two parts, one part of which is fixed to one end of one cup 1 near the center front line, and the other part is fixed to one end of the other cup 1 near the center front line. The two parts are connected to each other to connect the two cups 1.

[0037] The connection methods of snap 2 and hook 3 are different.

[0038] Specifically, snap 2 is used for fastening along the front-back direction of the human body. That is, the two parts of snap 2 can be fixed to the side of one cup 1 away from the skin, and the other part can be fixed to the side of the other cup 1 facing the skin. In actual connection, the close ends of the two cups 1 are overlapped along the front-back direction of the human body, and the two parts of the snap 2 can be fastened together along the front-back direction of the human body. Here, the front-back direction of the human body refers to the direction in which the front of the chest and the back of the human body point to each other.

[0039] The hook 3 is used to hook along the width of the body. The two parts of the hook 3 are fixed to the ends of the two cups 1 near the front center line. When connecting, the two parts of the hook 3 move closer to each other in the direction of the front center line until they hook together.

[0040] For common snaps 2 and hooks 3, snaps 2 are generally larger than hooks 3. Therefore, for front-opening bras, snaps 2 are used throughout, allowing the two cups 1 to be connected with fewer snaps 2. Snaps 2 fasten along the front-to-back direction of the body. However, when actually wearing a front-opening bra, snaps 2 are mainly subjected to the pulling force exerted by the two cups 1 in opposite directions along the width of the body. This causes the connection between the two parts of the snap 2 to be subjected to significant shearing force, making it easy for the snaps 2 to break open during certain movements, affecting wearability and posing a risk of exposure.

[0041] The front-opening bra provided in this application, based on the use of snaps 2 to fasten the two cups 1 along the front-to-back direction of the human body, adds at least one hook 3 that hooks along the width direction of the human body. The hook 3 hooks along the width direction of the human body, which allows the two cups 1 to be gathered together in the front center line area of ​​the front-opening bra at the same time. This reduces the shearing force on the snaps 2 along the width direction of the human body, making it less likely for the snaps 2 to break open when the wearer moves, thereby improving the connection stability between the two cups 1.

[0042] By combining the snap buttons and the snap 2, when wearing a front-opening bra, after the hook 3 is fastened first, the hook 3 will bring the two cups 1 together in the middle, which will naturally bring the two parts of the snap 2 closer to each other, thereby reducing the difficulty of fastening the snap 2 and improving the ease of wearing the front-opening bra.

[0043] Furthermore, since hooks 3 are typically small, if all front-opening bras are connected using hooks 3, the distance between adjacent hooks 3 should not be too large to avoid the opening between two hooks 3 affecting aesthetics. This necessitates using a large number of hooks 3 to connect the two cups 1. However, a large number of hooks 3 makes the process of connecting each hook 3 individually more cumbersome, affecting the ease of wearing the front-opening bra. The bra provided in this application uses both hooks 3 and snaps 2 to connect the two cups 1. By utilizing the larger size of snaps 2, the total number of hooks 3 and snaps 2 can be reduced, thereby reducing the cumbersome process of sequentially fastening snaps 2 and hooking hooks 3, and improving the ease of wearing the front-opening bra.

[0044] As an optional implementation, the number of snaps 2 is at least two, with at least two snaps 2 respectively located on both sides of all hooks 3 along the height of the human body. Specifically, the number of snaps 2 can be two, three, four, or more. The fact that at least two snaps 2 are respectively located on both sides of all hooks 3 along the height of the human body means that in the connecting assembly, all hooks 3 and snaps 2 are arranged along the height of the human body, and the two ends of the connecting assembly along the height of the human body are both snaps 2; that is, hooks 3 are not located at either end of the connecting assembly along the height of the human body.

[0045] Because the overall curve of the human chest gradually rises and then falls from top to bottom, when wearing a bra, the middle area of ​​a front-opening bra along the body's height direction usually corresponds to the highest point of the breast, while the two ends of the bra correspond to the lower points of the breast, respectively. Typically, near the highest point of the breast, the connecting structure between the two cups experiences greater shear force than at the lower points. Setting at least two snaps 2 on both sides of all hooks 3 along the height of the body allows the hooks 3 to be positioned at or near the high point of the breast. Connecting the two cups 1 at or near the high point of the breast and pulling them together towards the center line along the width of the body is equivalent to bringing the two cups 1 together in the middle at a point with greater shear force. This also naturally causes the upper and lower ends of the two cups 1 to tend to gather towards the middle, which can improve the gathering effect of the hooks 3 on the two cups 1. This allows the connection stability of the two cups 1 to be maintained with fewer hooks 3, and improves the ease of putting on and taking off the front-opening bra.

[0046] Please refer to the above. Figure 2 and Figure 3 , Figure 2 This is a schematic diagram of the connection between the hook and snap in an embodiment of this application. Figure 3 This is an exploded view of the snaps and hooks in the embodiments of this application.

[0047] As an optional implementation, all snaps 2 are arranged in a row along the front center line. Each snap 2 has a snapping area when fastened, and the snapping area has two snapping endpoints along the width direction of the human body. Specifically, the front-opening bra provided in this application can use snaps 2 in various shapes, such as circular snaps 2, square snaps 2, and oval snaps 2. The snapping area refers to the area where the two parts of the snap 2 interlock when fastened. This area can also be circular, oval, or other shapes. Furthermore, the shape of the snapping area and the shape of the snap 2 can be the same as or different from the shape of the snap 2. As a specific example, in the embodiments of this application, both the snaps 2 and the snapping area are circular. Each circular snap has two endpoints along the width direction of the human body, and these two endpoints are the snapping endpoints.

[0048] It should be understood that arranging all snaps 2 in a row along the front center line means that the centers of all snapping areas are on the same straight line, not that the snapping ends on the same side of all snaps 2 are on the same straight line. If each snapping area has the same width in the direction of body width, then the snapping ends on the same side of all snaps 2 are on the same straight line. If at least some snapping areas have different widths in the direction of body width, then the snapping ends on the same side of all snaps 2 are not on the same straight line.

[0049] Each hook 3 has an engagement point when engaged. In the direction of body width, each engagement point is located within the range of the two engagement endpoints of the engagement area of ​​any snap 2. It is worth noting that each hook 3 can have one, two, or more engagement points. When a hook 3 includes two or more engagement points, all engagement points are located within the range of the two engagement endpoints of any snap 2.

[0050] By setting the hook points within the range of the two hooking endpoints of the hooking area, the pulling force applied by the hook 3 to the two cups 1 can be aligned with the pulling force applied by the snap 2 to the two cups 1 in the direction of human body height. Thus, when the snap 2 is fastened and the hook 3 is fastened, the gap between the overlapping ends of the two cups 1 near the front center line of the front-opening bra is approximately a straight line, improving the aesthetics of the front-opening bra.

[0051] Optionally, when specifically setting the hooks 3 and snaps 2, the center point of all fastening areas and all hook points can be located on all front center lines. This setting allows the pulling force of the hooks 3 on the two cups 1 to be more aligned with the pulling force of the snaps 2 on the two cups 1 in the direction of body height, thereby further improving the aesthetics of the front-opening bra.

[0052] As an optional implementation, the number of hooks 3 is one, and the distance between the hook point and the two adjacent hooking areas is equal in the direction of body height. By setting the number of hooks 3 to one, the number of hooks 3 can be minimized while ensuring that the two cups 1 are connected by hooks 3 and gathered in the middle, thereby further improving the ease of putting on and taking off the front-opening bra. Furthermore, setting the position of the hook point between the two adjacent hooking areas ensures that the connection points between the two cups 1 are evenly distributed, reducing the risk of clothing twisting or discomfort caused by uneven distribution.

[0053] Alternatively, when specifically distributing the snaps 2, the number of snaps 2 above the hook 3 and the number of snaps 2 below the hook 3 can differ by no more than 1. For example, when there are 3 snaps 2 and 1 hook 3, the snaps 2 can be divided into two groups, one with 1 snap 2 and the other with 2 snaps 2, with the hook 3 positioned between the two groups of snaps 2. Another example is when there are 2 snaps 2 and 1 hook 3, then 1 snap 2 can be placed above and below the hook 3. This arrangement further positions the hook 3 closer to the highest point of the breast, enhancing the effect of the hook 3 in gathering the two cups 1.

[0054] As an optional implementation, in the width direction of the body, the distance between the hook point and the edge of any cup 1 is L1; in the height direction of the body, the distance between the hook point and any adjacent fastening area is L2; ​​L1 and L2 satisfy: L1 / L2 ≥ 1 / 5. (Reference) Figure 2 The diagram illustrates L1 and L2. When L2 is a fixed value, a smaller L1 means a smaller overlap between the ends of the two cups 1 near the center front line. This makes it easier for the edges of the two cups 1 to separate during wear due to being pulled to the sides, affecting aesthetics and increasing the risk of exposure. By setting L1 / L2 ≥ 1 / 5, the risk of the edges of the two cups 1 separating due to being pulled to the sides can be effectively reduced.

[0055] As an optional implementation, in this embodiment, the snap 2 is a heat-pressed soft snap, and the hook 3 is a rubber-coated hook ring. The heat-pressed soft snap is softer when in contact with the skin, avoiding the pressure or discomfort that may be caused by hard snaps, thus improving the wearing comfort of the front-opening bra. The sharp parts of the rubber-coated hook ring are covered with soft material, which also improves the wearing comfort of the garment.

[0056] As an optional implementation, each snap 2 includes a male snap 21 and a female snap 22, and each hook 3 includes a male hook 31 and a female hook 32; that is, the two parts of the snap 2 are the male snap 21 and the female snap 22, and the two parts of the hook 3 are the male hook 31 and the female hook 32. All male snaps 21 and all male hooks 31 are located and fixed in the same cup 1; all male hooks 31 and all female hooks 32 are fixed in the same cup 1. By placing the male snaps 21 and male hooks 31 on the same side, the user can unfasten or fasten / hook the snaps 2 and hooks 3 one by one in the same direction when putting on or taking off the front-opening bra, thus making the putting on and taking off operation more convenient and quick.

[0057] Alternatively, the male buckle 21 and male hook 31 can be located on the right side of the bra cup 1, so that most users can use their right-hand dominant hand to connect or unconnect the snaps 2 and hooks 3.

[0058] As an optional implementation, for any snap 2, the male snap 21 is fixed to the side of the corresponding cup 1 facing the skin, and the female snap 22 is fixed to the side of the corresponding cup 1 away from the skin. That is, when the snap 2 is fastened, at the overlapping edges of the two cups 1, the male snap 21 is located at the outer edge away from the skin, and the female snap 22 is located at the inner edge closer to the skin. The male snap 21 can be pressed into the female snap 22 from front to back along the body's front-to-back direction to fasten it. The dexterity of human fingers makes it easier to apply force towards the skin; therefore, fixing the male snap 21 to the side of the corresponding cup 1 facing the skin is more in line with natural human movement habits, thereby improving the convenience of fastening the male snap 21.

[0059] As an optional implementation, for any hook 3, the opening of the male hook 31 is located on the side of the male hook 31 facing the human skin. That is, during hooking operations, relative to the skin, the male hook 31 is located on the outer side of the female hook 32 facing away from the skin, and is aligned inward with the female hook 32 to hook with it. Similarly, the dexterity of human fingers makes it easier for us to apply force towards the skin, so fixing the male hook 31 to the side of the corresponding bra cup 1 facing the human skin is more in line with human natural movement habits, thereby improving the convenience of hooking operation of the hook 3.
