Detailed Implementation

[0025] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. All other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art based on the embodiments of the present utility model without creative effort are within the scope of protection of the present utility model.

[0026] This application discloses a maternity top with adjustable abdominal circumference, such as... Figure 1The maternity top is formed by transforming a rectangular single fabric piece. The rectangular single fabric piece includes a square abdominal circumference area 1 located in the middle, and a first adjustment area 2 and a second adjustment area 3 connected to both sides of the square abdominal circumference area 1. The two non-connecting sides of the square abdominal circumference area 1 are respectively provided with a first single-sided splicing component 12 and a second single-sided splicing component 13. The first connecting side of the first adjustment area 2 is provided with a first single-sided splicing fitting component 21, and the second connecting side of the second adjustment area 3 is provided with a second single-sided splicing fitting component 31. The first adjustment area 2 includes sections extending from the first connecting side towards the square abdominal circumference area 1. The garment consists of multiple first adjustment pieces 22 arranged sequentially in a certain direction. Adjacent first adjustment pieces 22 are detachably spliced ​​together by splicing components. The second adjustment area 3 includes multiple second adjustment pieces 32 arranged sequentially from the second connecting edge towards the square abdominal circumference garment length area 1. Adjacent second adjustment pieces 32 are detachably spliced ​​together by splicing components. A neckline 14 is provided at the center of the square abdominal circumference garment length area 1. The square abdominal circumference garment length area 1 is folded diagonally and spliced ​​with a first single-sided splicing piece 12 and a first single-sided splicing fitting piece 21, and then spliced ​​with a second single-sided splicing piece 13 and a second single-sided splicing fitting piece 31 to form a maternity top. It can be understood that this example is based on the transformation of a rectangular single piece of fabric. A garment can be formed by folding and splicing a single piece of fabric diagonally using splicing and fitting pieces. The manufacturing process is relatively simple and easy to produce. By setting multiple detachable and splicable adjustment pieces, the garment can be flexibly adjusted according to the changes in abdominal circumference of the pregnant woman at different stages of pregnancy, meeting the wearing needs of the gradually increasing abdomen during pregnancy.

[0027] In some embodiments, after the square abdominal circumference garment area 1 is folded along its diagonal, the fold lines 11 on both sides of the center position form the two sleeves of the maternity top. It is understood that after the square abdominal circumference garment area 1 is folded along its diagonal, the fold lines 11 on both sides of the center position naturally form the two sleeves of the maternity top. This design utilizes the structure of the fabric itself, eliminating the need for additional complex cutting and splicing to create the sleeves, simplifying the manufacturing process, and ensuring a natural and smooth transition between the sleeves and the overall garment body.

[0028] In some embodiments, after the square abdominal circumference area 1 is folded along the diagonal, the front and back sides of the fold line 11 form the front and back sides of the abdomen of the maternity top.

[0029] In some embodiments, each splicing assembly includes a single-sided splicing member and a single-sided splicing mating member, wherein the single-sided splicing member and the single-sided splicing mating member are formed on adjacent sides of adjacent adjustment pieces.

[0030] In some embodiments, each splicing component is a component that completes a zipper splice, a button splice, or a cord splice.

[0031] In some embodiments, the maternity top, after being assembled, forms an abdominal relief space 4. This abdominal relief space 4 prevents the clothing from compressing the pregnant woman's abdomen, provides ample space for the growing abdomen, improves wearing comfort, and adapts to changes in the shape of the abdomen during pregnancy. The abdominal relief space 4 has an isosceles triangular structure, making the entire top harmonious and aesthetically pleasing. The length of the three sides is determined by the number and width of the adjustment panels, allowing for flexible adjustment based on the abdominal circumference. This ensures that the relief space 4 can reasonably change with the pregnant woman's abdominal circumference, always maintaining a good fit.

[0032] In some embodiments, the abdominal clearance space 4 is an isosceles triangle structure. The length of the three sides of the isosceles triangle structure is determined based on the number of adjustment pieces and the width of each adjustment piece. The width of the adjustment piece connects two adjacent splicing components.

[0033] In some embodiments, the side length of the square waist circumference garment length region 1 is between 70cm and 80cm.

[0034] In some embodiments, the equilateral side of the isosceles triangle is between 30cm and 70cm, and the long side is between 45cm and 95cm. It can be understood that the side length of the square abdominal circumference garment area 1 is between 70cm and 80cm. This size range, when folded diagonally, effectively covers the upper body of the pregnant woman, ensuring the garment length meets daily wear needs without being too long or too short to affect movement or aesthetics. It also provides a suitable basic size for abdominal circumference adjustment and overall styling. The isosceles triangle abdominal clearance space 4 has equilateral sides between 30cm and 70cm, and the long side between 45cm and 95cm. This size range can adapt to changes in the degree of abdominal expansion during different stages of pregnancy. Smaller sizes meet the needs of a slightly protruding abdomen in early pregnancy, while larger sizes accommodate the significantly enlarged abdomen in late pregnancy, improving the garment's applicability throughout the entire pregnancy.

[0035] Specifically, the adjustable abdominal circumference of this maternity top is mainly reflected in the adjustment of the clearance space 4. This adjustment is achieved by changing the number of adjustment pieces and the width of each piece. For ease of understanding, see the attached diagram below. Figure 1 To be continued Figure 7 Exemplary illustrations are provided for abdominal circumference adjustment in the early, middle, and late stages of pregnancy.

[0036] like Figure 1As described, there are two first adjustment pieces 22 and two second adjustment pieces 32. Taking a 165cm mannequin as an example, the side length of the square abdominal circumference garment length area 1 can be taken as 74cm. The distances between the square abdominal circumference garment length area 1 and each splicing component are successively set from the side length of the square abdominal circumference garment length area 1 towards the first single-sided fitting piece 21 or the second single-sided fitting piece 22 as follows: 72.72cm (distance from one side of the first adjustment piece), 99cm (distance from the other side of the first adjustment piece), and 127.3cm (distance from the single-sided fitting piece). After splicing, the formed maternity top is as follows: Figure 2 and Figure 3 The isosceles triangle forming the avoidance space 4 has an equilateral side length of approximately 63.65 cm and a long side length of approximately 90 cm. The avoidance space 4 is relatively small, making it suitable for pregnant women in the early stages of pregnancy. In the middle stages of pregnancy, it can be... Figure 1 Remove the leftmost first adjusting piece 22 and the rightmost second adjusting piece 32, and then reassemble them to form... Figure 4 and Figure 5 The aforementioned maternity top forms an isosceles triangle with an equilateral side length of approximately 49.5 cm and a long side length of approximately 70 cm. At this point, the clearance space 4 is relatively... Figure 2 and Figure 3 The space required to avoid unwanted movement is about 4 cm, which is suitable for pregnant women in the mid-pregnancy stage. Furthermore, in the late stages of pregnancy, it can... Figure 1 After removing the first adjusting piece 22 and the second adjusting piece 32, and then reassembling them, a new structure is formed. Figure 6 and Figure 7 The isosceles triangle formed by the maternity top shown has an equilateral side length of approximately 35.36 cm and a long side length of approximately 50 cm. In this case, the clearance space 4 is relatively... Figure 4 and Figure 5 The 4-inch model offers more space, making it suitable for pregnant women in the later stages of pregnancy.

[0037] It is understood that the mannequin dimensions in this application embodiment are merely an illustrative example. Due to differences in human height, the above method can be used to create maternity tops suitable for pregnant women of different heights.

[0038] The foregoing has shown and described the basic principles, main features, and advantages of this utility model. Those skilled in the art should understand that this utility model is not limited to the above embodiments. The embodiments and descriptions in the specification are merely illustrative of the principles of this utility model. Various changes and modifications can be made to this utility model without departing from its spirit and scope, and all such changes and modifications fall within the scope of the claimed utility model.
