Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of underwear technology, and in particular to a breathable and sweat-wicking bra. Background Technology

[0002] A bra mainly consists of three parts: cups, underband, and shoulder straps. The cups are made up of fabric, lining, and a latex layer sandwiched between the fabric and lining. Existing bras mainly achieve breathability and sweat-wicking by creating holes in the latex layer and using breathable fabric. However, a lot of sweat will still flow down from the lower edge of the breast and accumulate in the underband area, and the sweat will still make the skin sticky. Utility Model Content

[0003] The purpose of this invention is to provide a breathable and sweat-wicking bra to solve one or more technical problems existing in the prior art, and at least provide a beneficial option or create conditions.

[0004] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, the technical solution adopted by this utility model is as follows: Firstly, this utility model provides a breathable and sweat-wicking bra, including a cup, an underband, and shoulder straps. The side of the bra facing the body is the inner side, and the side away from the body is the outer side. The upper edge of the underband is connected to the bottom of the cup. The underband has a layer corresponding to the area below the cup. The layer is located in the middle of the upper and lower edges of the underband. The edges of the layer are located between the two edges of the cup. The layer has an opening on the outer layer of the underband. The opening is located above the midline in the vertical direction of the underband. The size of the opening is smaller than the size of the layer. The layer is filled with quick-drying, long, sheet-like absorbent cotton. There is a gap between the absorbent cotton and the layer. The inner side of the underband is a highly breathable fabric layer.

[0005] In this design, a layer is incorporated at the underband below the bra cups to hold absorbent cotton. Sweat in this area can penetrate through the highly breathable fabric layer to the underband, where it is absorbed by the absorbent cotton, reducing the stickiness on the skin. The underband, positioned midway between the upper and lower edges, ensures that the underband always conforms to the curve of the lower chest, providing continuous and stable support. The gap between the absorbent cotton and the underband allows for air circulation, maintaining the absorbent cotton's absorbent properties.

[0006] The interlayer design of this solution also facilitates the quick replacement or cleaning of the absorbent cotton. Users can quickly pull out the absorbent cotton from the opening of the interlayer, wring it out, and then put it back in.

[0007] It is understood that the high-permeability fabric layer refers to a highly breathable and moisture-permeable fabric layer, which is a type of functional fabric with rapid air circulation and efficient sweat conduction capabilities, and is often used in bra manufacturing.

[0008] As an extension of the above solution, a boning strip is provided between the interlayer and the highly breathable fabric layer. The boning strip secures the positions of the interlayer and the highly breathable fabric layer, preventing the interlayer from shifting during activity and ensuring the absorbent cotton is precisely positioned to wick away sweat from the areas prone to sweating. Furthermore, the boning strip also improves the bra's breathability to some extent. It maintains a certain space between the highly breathable fabric layer and the interlayer, facilitating air circulation within the bra and aiding the absorbent cotton in better evaporating and releasing sweat.

[0009] As an extension of the above solution, the thickness of the absorbent cotton is between 1 mm and 2 mm. This extended solution allows for the filling of the interlayer with absorbent cotton without causing a noticeable foreign body sensation, while ensuring sweat absorption performance.

[0010] As an extension of the above solution, the ratio of the length of the interlayer to the length of the bra cup is between 1 / 3 and 2 / 3. This extended solution ensures that the interlayer does not significantly affect the support performance of the underwire.

[0011] As an extension of the above solution, the absorbent cotton is covered with a cotton sleeve, and the left and right ends of the cotton sleeve have brushed areas. This extension helps to prevent the absorbent cotton from shifting relative to the interlayer.

[0012] As an extension of the above solution, the bra cup includes an outer layer, an inner layer, and a pad. The outer and inner layers are partially bonded together to create a cavity for the pad. The inner surface of the pad is fixedly connected to the inner layer, and the outer surface of the pad has several mesh-like patterns. There is a gap between the pad and the outer layer. In this extension, the outer surface of the pad has several mesh-like patterns and a gap with the outer layer. When the body moves, the breast movement causes the pad to shift relative to the outer layer, creating friction between the mesh-like patterns and the outer layer, promoting local airflow and accelerating sweat evaporation. This extension, combined with the aforementioned solution, has the inner surface of the pad directly bonded to the inner layer. The inner layer also uses a highly breathable and moisture-wicking fabric. Sweat on the breast surface diffuses through the inner layer to the underband where it is absorbed by the absorbent cotton. Even when the absorbent cotton absorbs water, it does not cause a damp feeling on the breast skin.

[0013] As an extension of the above solution, the rubber pad is provided with multiple through holes penetrating the front and rear surfaces of the rubber pad. In this extended solution, by providing through holes in the rubber pad, air circulation can be enhanced, thereby ensuring breathability.

[0014] As an extension of the above solution, the inner surface of the pad has multiple parallel and vertically downward grooves, and the through-hole communicates with the grooves. Combined with the aforementioned solution, the inner surface of the pad is fixedly connected to the inner layer of the cup, which is made of highly breathable and moisture-permeable fabric. The grooves on the inner surface of the pad, with the through-hole communicating with them, increase the contact area between the inner layer of the cup and the inner surface of the pad. This makes the connection between the pad and the inner surface of the cup more stable and less prone to loosening when using welding. Furthermore, this reduces the contact area between the inner surface of the cup and the breast, reducing stuffiness. When the breasts move, the bra provides support and restraint, allowing for natural displacement between the breast area and the grooves, promoting airflow.

[0015] As an extension of the above solution, the padding is a silicone pad. Generally speaking, compared with latex pads, silicone pads have relatively poor breathability, but stronger shaping ability. Combined with the setting method in the aforementioned solution, it can make up for the relatively poor breathability of silicone pads. Using silicone pads as the padding in the bra cups can make the bra have good support and shaping ability as well as moderate breathability.

[0016] As an extension of the above solution, the groove surface is provided with uneven micropores. This extension improves the adhesion strength between the inner layer of the cup and the pad, making the pad less prone to displacement.

[0017] The breathable and sweat-wicking bra provided by this utility model can improve the breathability and sweat-wicking performance of the bra. The absorbent cotton is not easy to shift, and sweat will not accumulate on the breast area. In addition, the adhesive pad is more firmly bonded to the inner layer of the cup. The breathable and moisture-wicking bra provided by this utility model belongs to the field of underwear technology and is applied to women's wear. Attached Figure Description

[0023] In the description of this utility model, unless otherwise explicitly defined, terms such as "setting," "installation," and "connection" should be interpreted broadly, and those skilled in the art can reasonably determine the specific meaning of the above terms in this utility model in conjunction with the specific content of the technical solution.

[0024] Reference Figures 1 to 4 The following are several embodiments of a breathable and sweat-wicking bra according to this utility model.

[0025] like Figures 1 to 4As shown, a breathable and sweat-wicking bra includes a cup 100, an underband 200, and shoulder straps. The side of the bra facing the body is considered the inner side, and the side away from the body is considered the outer side. The upper edge of the underband 200 is connected to the bottom of the cup 100. A layer 201 is provided in the area below the cup 100 on the underband 200. The layer 201 is located in the middle of the upper and lower edges of the underband 200. The edges of the layer 201 are located between the two edges of the cup 100. The layer 201 has an opening 202 on the outer layer of the underband 200, located above the midline in the vertical direction of the underband 200. The size of the opening 202 is smaller than the size of the layer 201. The layer 201 is filled with a quick-drying, long sheet-shaped absorbent cotton 203, with a gap between the absorbent cotton 203 and the layer 201. The inner side of the underband 200 is a highly breathable fabric layer.

[0026] In this embodiment, a layer 201 is provided at the underband 200 below the bra cup 100 to hold absorbent cotton 203. Sweat in this area can penetrate through the highly breathable fabric layer to the layer 201, where it is absorbed by the absorbent cotton 203, reducing the stickiness of the skin. The layer 201, located in the middle of the upper and lower edges of the underband 200, ensures that the underband 200 always conforms to the curve below the chest, providing continuous and stable support for the chest. The gap between the absorbent cotton 203 and the layer 201 allows for air circulation, maintaining airflow within the layer 201 while preserving the absorbent cotton 203's absorbency.

[0027] The way the interlayer 201 is set in this embodiment is conducive to the quick replacement or cleaning of the absorbent cotton 203. The user can quickly pull out the absorbent cotton 203 from the opening 202 of the interlayer 201, wring it dry, and put it back in.

[0028] It is understood that the high-permeability fabric layer refers to a highly breathable and moisture-permeable fabric layer, which is a type of functional fabric with rapid air circulation and efficient sweat conduction capabilities, and is often used in bra manufacturing.

[0029] In some optional embodiments, a bob 204 is provided between the interlayer 201 and the highly breathable fabric layer. The bob 204 can fix the position of the interlayer 201 and the highly breathable fabric layer, preventing the interlayer 201 from shifting during activities, which would cause the absorbent cotton 203 to be unable to align with the sweat-prone areas, ensuring that the absorbent cotton 203 can accurately perform its sweat-absorbing function. Furthermore, the bob 204 can also improve the breathability of the bra to a certain extent. It maintains a certain space between the highly breathable fabric layer and the interlayer 201, which is conducive to the circulation of air inside the bra, assisting the absorbent cotton 203 in better completing the evaporation and expulsion of sweat.

[0030] In some optional embodiments, the thickness of the absorbent cotton 203 is between 1 mm and 2 mm, which helps to ensure the sweat absorption performance while ensuring that the absorbent cotton 203 does not cause obvious foreign body sensation after being filled into the interlayer 201.

[0031] In some alternative embodiments, the length of the interlayer 201 is in the ratio of 1 / 3 to 2 / 3 of the length of the cup 100, so that the interlayer 201 does not significantly affect the support performance of the underband 200.

[0032] In some optional embodiments, a cotton sleeve 205 may be provided around the absorbent cotton 203, and the cotton sleeve 205 has a roughened area at both ends, which helps to prevent the absorbent cotton 203 from shifting relative to the interlayer 201.

[0033] In some optional embodiments, the bra cup 100 includes an outer layer 101, an inner layer 102, and a pad 103. The outer layer 101 and the inner layer 102 are partially bonded together to create a cavity for placing the pad 103. The inner surface of the pad 103 is fixedly connected to the inner layer 102, and the outer surface of the pad 103 has a plurality of mesh-like patterns. There is a gap between the pad 103 and the outer layer 101. In this embodiment, the outer surface of the pad 103 has a plurality of mesh-like patterns and a gap between it and the outer layer 101. When the body is active, the breast movement causes the pad 103 to shift relative to the outer layer 101, thereby generating friction between the mesh-like patterns on the outer surface of the bra cup and the outer layer 101, promoting local airflow and accelerating sweat evaporation. In conjunction with the aforementioned embodiments, at cup 100, the inner surface of the pad 103 is directly bonded to the inner layer 102 of the cup, and the inner layer 102 of the cup is also made of highly breathable and highly moisture-permeable fabric. Sweat on the surface of the breast diffuses through the inner layer 102 of the cup to the underband 200 and is absorbed by the absorbent cotton 203. When the absorbent cotton 203 absorbs water, even if a damp feeling occurs, it will not suffocate the skin on the surface of the breast.

[0034] In some optional embodiments, the rubber pad 103 is provided with a plurality of through holes 104 penetrating the front and rear surfaces of the rubber pad 103. By providing through holes 104 in the rubber pad 103, air circulation can be enhanced, thereby ensuring breathability.

[0035] In some optional embodiments, the inner surface of the adhesive pad 103 is provided with a plurality of parallel and vertically downward grooves 105, and the through hole 104 communicates with the grooves 105.

[0036] In conjunction with the foregoing embodiments, the inner surface of the pad 103 is fixedly connected to the inner layer 102 of the cup. The inner layer 102 of the cup is made of highly breathable and moisture-permeable fabric. Several grooves 105 are provided on the inner surface of the pad 103, allowing the through-holes 104 to communicate with the grooves 105. This increases the contact area between the inner layer 102 of the cup and the inner surface of the pad 103, making the connection between the pad 103 and the inner surface of the cup more stable and less prone to loosening when connected by welding. On the other hand, this reduces the contact area between the inner surface of the cup and the human breast, reducing stuffiness. When the human breast moves, the bra provides support and restraint, allowing for a natural displacement between the breast and the grooves 105, promoting airflow.

[0037] In conjunction with the aforementioned embodiments, the pad 103 is further selected as a silicone pad 103, so that the bra has good support and shaping properties as well as moderate breathability.

[0038] Generally speaking, compared with latex pad 103, silicone pad 103 has relatively poor breathability but strong shaping ability. Combined with the setting method in the aforementioned embodiment, it can make up for the disadvantage of relatively poor breathability of silicone pad 103 and give full play to its good shaping ability.

[0039] In some optional embodiments, the surface of the groove 105 is provided with uneven micropores, which can improve the adhesion strength between the inner layer 102 of the cup and the pad 103, so that the pad 103 is not easily displaced.

[0040] The preferred embodiments of the present invention have been described in detail above, but the present invention is not limited to the described embodiments. Those skilled in the art can make various equivalent modifications or substitutions without departing from the spirit of the present invention, and these equivalent modifications or substitutions are all included within the scope defined by the claims of this application.
