Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of women's underwear technology. More specifically, it relates to a petal-shaped cup and a bra having the same cup. Background Technology

[0002] Existing large-cup bra cup technology has many shortcomings and fails to meet user needs. Traditional cups are mostly single-structure designs with poor breathability, making them uncomfortable for women with large cups, causing them to feel stuffy and sticky in summer. While pure single-layer structures are breathable, they can easily lead to nipple protrusion and areola exposure, failing to balance practicality and appearance. At the same time, the design of the cup edges is unreasonable, causing concentrated pressure that can result in a feeling of pressure on the chest and marks. They also lack support and lift, making them prone to shifting and shifting when worn. Furthermore, the styles are limited and have poor adaptability, failing to meet the needs of different breast shapes and aesthetic preferences. Utility Model Content

[0003] In view of the above problems, one object of this utility model is to provide a petal-shaped bra cup.

[0004] Another objective of this invention is to provide a bra.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention adopts the following technical solution: According to one aspect of the present invention, a lace-patterned bra cup is provided, comprising: The cup body has a quadrilateral structure, including the front edge, the gusseted edge, the underside edge, and the transition edge that are connected end to end. The front edge features lace-like lines, and from the center to the ear section, it includes multiple convex arc segments connected in sequence. The transition edge extends downwards from the end of the front edge near the center of the bowl, and meets the end of the lower support edge at the bottom of the bowl. There is a gap between the transition edge and the cup's binding ring.

[0006] Alternatively, the straight-line distance AB between the two ends of the front edge is 13-22cm. The straight-line distance BC between the two ends of the bent edge is 3-8cm; The straight-line distance CD between the two ends of the lower support edge is 10-16cm; The straight-line distance DA between the two ends of the transition edge is 6-15cm.

[0007] Alternatively, the intersection of the transition edge and the lower support edge can be located at one-third of the distance from the end of the bra cup's bra band near the center of the cup.

[0008] Alternatively, the straight-line distance AB between the two ends of the front edge is twice the straight-line distance DA between the two ends of the transition edge.

[0009] Alternatively, the front edge may include a first arc segment, a second arc segment, and a third arc segment that are sequentially connected from the center to the ear segment. The straight-line distance between the two endpoints of the first arc segment is a = 4-6 cm; The straight-line distance between the two endpoints of the second arc segment is b = 8 - 11 cm; The straight-line distance between the two endpoints of the third arc segment is c = 5-7 cm.

[0010] Alternatively, the arch height of each of the upward convex arc segments can be between 1 and 5 cm.

[0011] Alternatively, the bra cup may also include ear flaps and side flaps; The ear-shaped piece and the front edge are connected and fixed; The center-side cut piece and the transition edge are connected and fixed. The edge of the center-side cut piece away from the transition edge and the lower support edge together form the cup-binding ring of the bra cup.

[0012] Alternatively, the bra cup may include a cup pad that is fitted and fixed to the area of ​​the bra cup body corresponding to the nipple position.

[0013] Alternatively, the height of the center gore of the bra cup can be 5-8cm.

[0014] According to one aspect of the present invention, a bra is provided, comprising a cup surface layer, an underband, side panels, a back panel, shoulder straps, an underwire, and a cup.

[0015] The beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows: To address the technical problems existing in the prior art, this utility model provides a petal-shaped cup and a bra with the same cup. By designing the front edge of the cup body as a lace-like line composed of multiple upward-convex arc segments, pressure on the breasts is distributed, avoiding discomfort. Natural ventilation openings are formed through the gap between the transition edge and the cup arm, accelerating air circulation during wear and effectively alleviating the problem of stuffiness and sweating for women with larger cup sizes wearing bras in summer. The petal-shaped cup and bra with the same cup provided by this utility model effectively relieve breast pressure, improve wearing comfort, and enhance breathability while ensuring stable support for the breasts.

[0024] 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.

[0025] 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 a connection through an intermediate medium or gap; 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.

[0026] 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.

[0027] 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.

[0028] To address the technical problems existing in the prior art, this utility model embodiment provides a petal-shaped bra cup, combined with... Figure 1-7 As shown, the bra cup includes a cup body 1, which has a quadrilateral structure and includes a front edge 11, a curved edge 12, a lower support edge 13, and a transition edge 14 connected end to end.

[0029] The front edge 11 features lace-like lines, including multiple convex arc segments connected sequentially from the center to the ear.

[0030] The transition edge 14 extends downward from the end of the front edge near the center of the bowl and meets the end of the lower support edge 13 at the bottom of the bowl.

[0031] There is a gap between the transition edge 14 and the cup's binding ring position.

[0032] In this embodiment, the cup body 1 adopts a quadrilateral structure with its ends connected sequentially. Each side has a clear function and is tightly connected, forming a stable support frame. This enhances the cup's support for the breasts, ensuring stable support both horizontally and vertically, resulting in a full and non-sagging cup shape. It also precisely conforms to the breast contour, reducing cup shifting or slipping during wear. The curved edge 12 fits under the armpit area, helping to conceal accessory breast tissue and prevent fat accumulation and exposure. The lower support edge 13 corresponds to the lower contour of the breast and, in conjunction with underwires or rubber bands, enhances support, helping to maintain breast shape and improve stability during wear.

[0033] There is a gap between the transition edge 14 and the cup's binding ring. The cup body 1 is molded into a three-dimensional structure corresponding to the curvature of the human breast. At the same time, due to the gap between the transition edge 14 and the cup's binding ring, the molding process allows the transition edge 14 to present an arched ventilation window structure. Unlike other ventilation designs on the market, this structure can accelerate the air circulation inside the cup, timely expel sweat and stuffy moisture, and significantly improve the breathability of the bra without affecting the product's function. This effectively improves the stuffy and sticky problem after wearing it for a long time and keeps the chest skin dry.

[0034] In a specific embodiment, such as Figure 2 As shown, the front edge 11 from the center to the ear includes a first arc segment 111, a second arc segment 112 and a third arc segment 113 connected in sequence, wherein the first arc segment 111, the second arc segment 112 and the third arc segment 113 are all upward convex arc segments.

[0035] In a specific embodiment, the straight-line distance between the two endpoints of the front edge 11 (i.e., Figure 2 (The length of the line connecting points A and B) AB = 13 - 22 cm.

[0036] The straight-line distance between the two endpoints of the bend 12 (i.e. Figure 2(Length of the line connecting points B and C) BC = 3-8cm.

[0037] The straight-line distance between the two endpoints of the lower support edge 13 (i.e. Figure 2 (The length of the line connecting points C and D) CD = 10-16cm.

[0038] The straight-line distance between the two endpoints of transition edge 14 (i.e. Figure 2 (Length of the line connecting points A and D) DA = 6-15cm.

[0039] In this embodiment, combining different breast shape contours and ergonomic design concepts, the size range of the front edge 11, the gusseted edge 12, the underside edge 13, and the transition edge 14 is limited to a reasonable range. This range can not only adapt to most women's breast sizes and ensure that the cup fits snugly and does not loosen when worn, but also take into account support and comfort through the length ratio of each side, so that the cup can provide stable support for the breast in both the horizontal and vertical directions.

[0040] In one specific embodiment, the straight-line distance AB between the two ends of the front edge 11 is approximately twice the straight-line distance DA between the two ends of the transition edge 14. This proportional relationship makes the stress area on the front of the cup more reasonable, and combined with the lace line structure of the front edge, it can further disperse the pressure on the upper and side of the chest, avoiding localized pressure.

[0041] In one specific embodiment, the intersection point D of the transition edge 14 and the underarm edge 13 is located at one-third of the distance from the center gore of the cup's bra cup support. It should be noted that the position of point D is not strictly limited to the position described in this embodiment. In actual production, it can be adjusted along the bra cup support based on factors such as the cup shape (e.g., full cup, 3 / 4 cup), and overall proportions, to ensure a more reasonable and precise placement of the ventilation window formed between the transition edge 14 and the bra cup support, accurately aligning with the inner chest area prone to sweating, maximizing airflow efficiency, and enhancing the bra's breathability.

[0042] In a specific embodiment, such as Figure 3 As shown, the distance h between the transition edge 14 and the cup binding ring is 1-4cm.

[0043] In one embodiment, the transition edge 14 can also be designed as a lace-like line. For example... Figure 2 As shown, the transition edge 14 includes two interconnected raised arc segments, which not only enhances the aesthetics of the bra cup but also avoids pressure on the inner side of the chest, improving wearing comfort.

[0044] The lace trim on the front edge, compared to the straight lines of existing bra cups, not only fits the curves of the chest better and enhances the overall aesthetics of the bra, but also disperses the local pressure on the chest through the connection of multiple upward-curving segments, avoiding the chest compression caused by a single line, dispersing the force on the chest, and effectively relieving the discomfort of the chest when wearing the bra, making it especially suitable for long-term wear.

[0045] In a specific embodiment, such as Figure 2 As shown, the straight-line distance between the two endpoints of the first arc segment 111 is a = 4-6 cm.

[0046] The straight-line distance between the two endpoints of the second arc segment 112 is b = 8 - 11 cm.

[0047] The straight-line distance between the two endpoints of the third arc segment 113 is c = 5-7 cm.

[0048] In this embodiment, the size range of the first arc segment 111, the second arc segment 112, and the third arc segment 113 are designed in accordance with the natural contour proportion of the chest from the center of the breast to the ear position, so that each arc segment can accurately fit the corresponding area of ​​the chest. At the same time, the multi-arc segment connection structure further enhances the pressure distribution effect and reduces marks and discomfort after wearing for a long time.

[0049] In one specific embodiment, the arch heights of the first arc segment 111, the second arc segment 112, and the third arc segment 113 are all between 1 and 5 cm. However, it is not limited that the arch heights of the three arc segments 111, 112, and 113 are the same; the arch height of each arc segment can be selected according to actual needs. Here, arch height refers to the vertical distance from the highest point of the arc to the line connecting the two ends (this line is called a chord). In this embodiment, the arch height of the third arc segment 113 is less than the arch height of the first arc segment 111, which is less than the arch height of the second arc segment 112. This conforms to the natural rise of the breast, improves the fit between the bra cup and the breast, and enhances the support stability of the bra cup, while avoiding discomfort caused by localized compression.

[0050] In this embodiment, the limitation of the arch height range for each arc segment ensures that the lace lines present a three-dimensional shape while avoiding the oppressive feeling caused by excessively high arch height or the insufficient support caused by excessively low arch height. Since the arch height of each arc segment can be selected according to needs, the fit or shape of the cup can be optimized by adjusting the arch height of a single arc segment during production without changing the overall structure. This improves the product's adaptability to users of different body types and reduces the design and production costs of developing multiple styles.

[0051] The petal-shaped bra cup provided in this embodiment can be directly covered with a cup surface layer on the outer layer of the bra cup body 1 for bra processing, or other functional pieces can be added to the bra cup body 1. In a specific embodiment, such as Figure 1 As shown, the bra cup also includes an ear-shaped piece 2 and a center-side piece 3. The ear-shaped piece 2 is connected and fixed to the front edge 11, and the center-side piece 3 is connected and fixed to the transition edge 14. The edge of the center-side piece 3 away from the transition edge 14 and the lower support edge 13 together form the cup-binding ring of the bra cup.

[0052] In this embodiment, the ear-shaped piece 2 is made of non-elastic mesh fabric, which can enhance the lifting effect of the shoulder straps on the cups, lift the breasts upwards, and enhance the lifting performance of the bra when worn. Furthermore, the side of the ear-shaped piece 2 near the bend can be folded inwards to form a double-layer structure at the corresponding ear position, further improving the lifting performance of the bra.

[0053] The side panel 3 can also be made of non-elastic mesh fabric, which on the one hand ensures the breathability of the cup, and on the other hand can stably wrap the inner fat of the chest, prevent the fat from floating out, strengthen the wrapping and fixation of the chest, and ensure that the cup can maintain its support function while ensuring breathability.

[0054] In this embodiment, the cup body 1 is made of sandwich cotton through molding. The inner layer of the sandwich cotton is a quick-drying fabric that can dry instantly and be breathable. In other embodiments, the cup body 1 can also be made of other materials as needed.

[0055] In one specific embodiment, to ensure breathability when wearing the bra, the cup body 1 is relatively thin, making it lighter, more breathable, and appearing smaller for people with larger bust sizes. However, this can lead to nipple protrusion. In this embodiment, as... Figure 1 As shown, a cup pad 4 is attached and fixed in the area corresponding to the nipple position of the bra cup body 1. The cup pad 4 is built into the bra cup body 1 and molded as a whole with the bra cup body 1. It is comfortable to wear without feeling, and at the same time, it can increase the thickness of the area corresponding to the nipple position of the bra cup body 1. While retaining the breathability of the thin cup, it enhances the anti-nipple protrusion effect.

[0056] In one specific embodiment, the height of the center gore of the bra cup is 5-8cm.

[0057] Another embodiment of this utility model provides a bra, which includes a cup surface layer 100, an underband 200, a back band 300, shoulder straps 400, an underwire or soft rubber ring 500, and the cups provided in the above embodiment. The two petal-shaped cups on the left and right are connected, and the whole presents a butterfly shape.

[0058] In this embodiment, the cup layer 100 corresponds to the outer contour of the bra cup. The cup layer 100 includes, but is not limited to, a triangular structure, a teardrop structure, a full-coverage cup shape, a cup with interlocking handles, a 3 / 4 cup shape, etc., and bras with different cup shapes can be designed according to needs. The fabric of the cup layer 100 can be one or more of mesh fabric, lace fabric, embroidered fabric, and double-elastic fabric to present different appearance and functional effects. In actual production, specific designs can be made according to needs, such as a cup layer 100 formed by splicing mesh fabric and double-elastic fabric.

[0059] Bras currently on the market with underwires or soft rubber bands generally suffer from a problem of being bulky and heavy around the wrists, causing stuffiness and a noticeable feeling of foreign objects when worn, resulting in poor comfort. This is because current technology uses methods such as... Figure 6 The method shown involves wrapping the steel ring or soft rubber ring 500 with the binding strip 600, followed by sewing, resulting in a larger number of fabric layers after forming. However, this application does not use a loop-joint process, such as... Figure 7 As shown, the steel ring or soft rubber ring 500 is directly covered with a 600 binding strip and then sewn. This reduces the thickness of the binding strip at the cup ring position by half. The original thickness of the binding strip at the cup ring position was 2.56mm. After optimization, the thickness can be reduced by 42%, making the product more comfortable to wear.

[0060] 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.
