DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS

[0015] The present invention will be described in detail below with reference to the preferred embodiment. However, the present invention is not limited to the above, and various modifications are possible within the scope of the description. In each drawing, parts that are less relevant to the present invention are omitted.

[0016] [First embodiment] Fig. 1 is a perspective view showing the brassiere 10 according to the first embodiment worn by a user U. Fig. 2 is a front view showing the brassiere 10 according to the first embodiment in an unfolded state, and Fig. 3 is a rear view showing the brassiere 10 according to the first embodiment in an unfolded state.

[0017] (Overall composition of the bra) As shown in Figures 1 to 3, the brassiere 10 has a front portion 12 with a pair of cup portions 14. Furthermore, the brassiere 10 has a pair of side portions 16 arranged on both sides of the front portion 12, and two shoulder straps 18.

[0018] One side portion 16 (e.g., the left side portion 16 in FIG. 2) is connected to a side portion of one cup portion 14 (e.g., the left cup portion 14 in FIG. 2). The other side portion 16 (e.g., the right side portion 16 in FIG. 2) is connected to a side portion of the other cup portion 14 (e.g., the right cup portion 14 in FIG. 2).

[0019] One of the two shoulder straps 18 (e.g., the left shoulder strap 18 in FIG. 2) extends from the stretch panel 50 on the upper edge side of one cup portion 14 (e.g., the left cup portion 14 in FIG. 2) to the upper edge side of the back of one side portion 16 (e.g., the left side portion 16 in FIG. 2). The other shoulder strap 18 (e.g., the right shoulder strap 18 in FIG. 2) extends from the stretch panel 50 on the upper edge side of the other cup portion 14 (e.g., the right cup portion 14 in FIG. 2) to the upper edge side of the back of the other side portion 16 (e.g., the right side portion 16 in FIG. 2).

[0020] (Pair of cups and front part) As shown in Figs. 1 to 3, the front portion 12 has a pair of cup portions 14 arranged on the left and right. The pair of cup portions 14 are formed of bowl-shaped members that cover the bust (chest) of the user U, and are deformable to follow the shape of the bust (chest) of the user U. The pair of cup portions 14 are formed approximately symmetrically. Specifically, the pair of cup portions 14 are formed approximately symmetrically in terms of internal configuration as well as external shape (see Fig. 5).

[0021] As an example, the front section 12 is configured with a pair of left and right cup sections 14 integrally formed. A central section 22 in the width direction of the front section 12 is located at the center of the pair of left and right integrated cup sections 14. The vertical length of the central section 22 is shorter than the vertical length of other parts on the outside in the width direction, and the central section 22 is located at the bottom of the front section 12. Only the fabric on the outer surface side is connected to the outer surface side of the central section 22 (i.e., the front surface side) at the front center 22A.

[0022] FIG. 4 is a perspective view showing the structure of the brassiere 10, and FIG. 5 is a front view showing the structure of the brassiere 10. As shown in FIG. 4 and FIG. 5, the pair of cup parts 14 each have a lower edge 14A, an end edge 14B, an outer upper edge 14C, and an inner upper edge 14D in a front view. The lower edge 14A extends along the horizontal direction. The end edge 14B extends from the outer end of the lower edge 14A in the width direction to the upper side intersecting with the lower edge 14A. Specifically, the end edge 14B is inclined with respect to the horizontal direction so that the upper part is located outside in the width direction compared to the lower part in a front view. The outer upper edge 14C extends from the upper end of the end edge 14B toward the inner upper side in the width direction. The inner upper edge 14D connects the upper end of the outer upper edge 14C and the upper edge of the central part 22, and is curved in a convex shape.

[0023] A connection portion 24 is provided adjacent to the end edge 14B to connect to the side portion 16. As an example, the connection portion 24 is a seam that connects the cup portion 14 and the side portion 16, and is structured such that a part of the cup portion 14 and a part of the side portion 16 are overlapped and sewn together. The connection portion 24 has a substantially constant width in the width direction. The connection portion 24 is inclined with respect to the horizontal direction so that the upper portion is positioned more outward in the width direction than the lower portion.

[0024] The pair of cup parts 14 are constituted by molded cups. Some molded cups are made by sewing together pieces of fabric, while others are made by using a resin sheet such as a urethane sheet without sewing. As an example, the pair of cup parts 14 are constituted by molded cups made by using a resin sheet such as a urethane sheet without sewing.

[0025] Fig. 8 is a cross-sectional view showing a cross section along the vertical direction of the cup portion 14. As shown in Fig. 8, the cup portion 14 includes an outer surface portion 26 made of fabric and arranged on the outer surface side, a back surface portion 28 made of fabric and arranged on the back surface side, and a resin portion 30 arranged between the outer surface portion 26 and the back surface portion 28. The resin portion 30 constitutes a molded cup, and is arranged throughout the interior of the pair of cup portions 14 (see Fig. 4).

[0026] As an example, the thickness of the vertical center portion of the resin part 30 is thicker than the thickness of the vertical upper end portion and the vertical lower end portion of the resin part 30. Although not shown in the drawings, as an example, the thickness of the widthwise center portion of the resin part 30 is thicker than the thickness of both ends of the resin part 30 in the widthwise direction.

[0027] FIG. 6 is a configuration diagram of a pair of cup parts 14 viewed from the back side. As shown in FIG. 6, a mounting cloth 32 is attached to the outside of the back part 28 of the pair of cup parts 14, and an insertion part 34 is formed between the back part 28 and the mounting cloth 32. The lower end of the mounting cloth 32 is curved concavely along the underbust of the user U. As a result, the lower end of the insertion part 34 between the back part 28 and the mounting cloth 32 has a concave curved shape. An opening 34A is formed on the outer side of the width direction of the insertion part 34 along the up-down direction. The pair of cup parts 14 are each provided with an insertion part 34, and a lower pad 36 is inserted into each of the insertion parts 34. The lower pad 36 can be removed through the opening 34A of the insertion part 34 (see FIG. 7).

[0028] As an example, the lower pad 36 is an elliptical member. The long side of the ellipse of the lower pad 36 can be inserted into the insertion portion 34 in a direction intersecting with the opening 34A of the insertion portion 34. As shown in FIG. 5, the pair of lower pads 36 are inserted into the insertion portions 34 (see FIG. 6) of the pair of cup portions 14 in a front view. The pair of lower pads 36 are disposed substantially symmetrically so that the long sides of the ellipse intersect with the horizontal direction. Specifically, one end of the long side of the ellipse of the lower pad 36 is located on the center side in the width direction and on the lower side in the vertical direction, and the other end of the long side of the ellipse of the lower pad 36 is located on the outer side in the width direction and on the upper side in the vertical direction.

[0029] As an example, the lower pad 36 is formed of a resin such as urethane. As an example, the thickness of the lower pad 36 is thinner than the thickness of the resin part 30 (see FIG. 8). The thicknesses of the lower pad 36 and the resin part 30 can be changed. The vertical length of the lower pad 36 is shorter than the vertical length of the resin part 30, and the lower pad 36 overlaps the lower side of the resin part 30. As a result, by arranging the lower pad 36 on the lower side of the resin part 30 of the pair of cup parts 14, it is possible to lift the bust of the user U from below.

[0030] By removing the lower pad from the insertion portion , the user U can wear the brassiere 10 without the lower pad .

[0031] As shown in Figs. 4 and 5, a plurality of bones 40 are arranged inside the pair of cup portions 14 on the side of the side portion 16 connected to the cup portions 14 (i.e., the outer side portion in the width direction of the cup portions 14). That is, the plurality of bones 40 are built into the pair of cup portions 14. The plurality of bones 40 are arranged at intervals along the connection portion 24 with the side portion 16. Furthermore, the plurality of bones 40 are arranged in a direction intersecting the horizontal direction so that the upper portions are on the outer side in the width direction relative to the lower portions. Here, the horizontal direction means the horizontal direction of the brassiere 10 when the user U is wearing the brassiere 10.

[0032] The number of bones 40 is preferably 2 to 5, and more preferably 3 to 4. As an example, the number of bones 40 is 3.

[0033] The bones 40 are spaced apart from one another to cover a range having a certain width along the connection portion 24 with the side portion 16 at the outer side portion in the width direction of the cup portion 14. The angle of the bones 40 on the outer side in the width direction in a direction intersecting with the horizontal direction is preferably 50 degrees or more and less than 90 degrees, more preferably 60 degrees or more and less than 85 degrees, and even more preferably 65 degrees or more and less than 80 degrees.

[0034] As an example, the bones 40 are made of resin. The width of each bone 40 is approximately the same. All of the bones 40 overlap the resin part 30 inside the pair of cup parts 14 (see FIG. 4). In addition, when the lower pad 36 is inserted into the insertion part 34 (see FIG. 6) of the pair of cup parts 14, at least a part of the bones 40 may overlap the lower pad 36 (see FIG. 4).

[0035] As an example, the longitudinal length of the bones 40 is longer as they are disposed inward in the width direction. As an example, the lower ends of the bones 40 are located at the same position, and the upper ends of the bones 40 are located higher as they are disposed inward in the width direction. As a result, when the user U wears the brassiere 10, the bust of the user U is supported from the sides as it goes up. Since the bones 40 are disposed at intervals, the portions between the bones 40 in the cup portion 14 can stretch when a tensile force is applied. As a result, the vicinity of the bones 40 in the cup portion 14 can be deformed to fit the curved surface of the bust of the user U. In addition, the bones 40 are straight before the brassiere 10 is worn, but the bones may be curved.

[0036] When the user U wears the brassiere 10, a pulling force acts in the direction of arrow A (see FIG. 4) that intersects with the multiple (e.g., three) bones 40. This makes it possible to move the flesh around the sides toward the center of the bust.

[0037] As shown in Figures 4 and 5, a stretch panel 50 is provided at a position including the outer upper edge 14C of the pair of cup portions 14, the stretch panel 50 having a width wider than the width of the shoulder straps 18 and extending in the direction in which the shoulder straps 18 are connected. The stretch panel 50 is disposed up to an area including the upper sides of the multiple bones 40. The stretch panel 50 is made of a stretchable material. The outer upper edge 14C is an example of an upper side edge of the pair of cup portions 14.

[0038] As an example, the stretch panel 50 has a longer side in the longitudinal direction arranged along the outer upper edge 14C of the cup portion 14. One longitudinal end 50A of the stretch panel 50 extends upward beyond the outer upper edge 14C of the cup portion 14 (see FIG. 5). One longitudinal end 18A of the shoulder strap 18 is connected to one longitudinal end 50A of the stretch panel 50. The other longitudinal end of the stretch panel 50, that is, the outer end 50B, is connected to the connection portion 24 with the side portion 16. As an example, the width of the longitudinal center portion of the stretch panel 50 is larger than the width of both longitudinal ends.

[0039] The outer end 50B of the stretch panel 50 is disposed on the lower side in the vertical direction and on the outer side in the width direction, and the one end 50A is disposed on the upper side in the vertical direction and on the inner side in the width direction. That is, the pair of left and right stretch panels 50 are disposed in a direction intersecting the horizontal direction so as to have an upward gradient from the outer side in the width direction to the inner side in the width direction.

[0040] As an example, the stretch panel 50 is formed by gluing together multiple pieces (e.g., three pieces) of stretchable fabric. The outer end 50B of the stretch panel 50 has a relatively wide width along the vertical direction, and the vertical width of the stretch panel 50 is wider than the width of the shoulder straps 18.

[0041] When the user U wears the brassiere 10, the pair of stretch panels 50 exerts a pulling force in the direction of arrow B (see FIG. 4) that intersects with the longitudinal direction of the stretch panels 50 (see the imaginary line area in FIG. 4). This makes it possible to move the flesh around the sides toward the center of the bust.

[0042] (A pair of side parts) The pair of side portions 16 are provided with a fastening structure 60 that fastens them to each other at their backs. As an example, the fastening structure 60 includes a hook portion 60B (see FIG. 9) provided on the back of one side portion 16, and a multi-stage hook portion 60A (see FIG. 2) provided on the back of the other side portion 16 and onto which the hook portion 60B is hooked.

[0043] FIG. 9 is a diagram showing one side portion 16 as viewed from the inside. FIG. 10 is a diagram showing one side portion 16 as viewed from the outside. As shown in FIGS. 9 and 10, one side portion 16 has a lower edge 16A, an upper edge 16B, a side edge 16C, and an outer upper edge 16D. The lower edge 16A extends along the horizontal direction, which is the extension direction of the lower edge 14A of the cup portion 14. The upper edge 16B extends along the horizontal direction and has a width determined between the lower edge 16A and the upper edge 16B. The side edge 16C extends upward from the end of the lower edge 16A. A hook portion 60B of the fastening structure 60 is provided on the inner portion of the side edge 16C of the side portion 16. The outer upper edge 16D connects the end of the upper edge 16B and the upper end of the side edge 16C, and is curved concavely from the end of the upper edge 16B toward the upper end of the side edge 16C.

[0044] The other side portion 16 has a similar shape to the first side portion 16, but is different in that it includes an extension portion 70 that extends from the lower edge 16A and the outer upper end edge 16D (see FIG. 2). A multi-stage hook portion 60A that constitutes a part of the fastening structure 60 is provided on the inside of the extension portion 70 (see FIG. 2).

[0045] As shown in FIG. 9, band-shaped rubber members 72, 74, 76 are arranged inside the pair of side parts 16 along the lower edge 16A, the upper edge 16B, and the outer upper edge 16D. In FIG. 9, only one side part 16 is shown, but the other side part 16 has the same configuration. The lower edge 16A, the upper edge 16B, and the outer upper edge 16D are an example of an edge part excluding the part connected to the cup part 14. As an example, the rubber members 72, 74, 76 are sandwiched between two pieces of fabric on the outer side and the inner side of the side part 16. The rubber members 72, 74, 76 are fixed inside the side part 16 by being sewn into the lower edge 16A, the upper edge 16B, and the outer upper edge 16D of the side part 16. By arranging band-shaped rubber members 72, 74, 76 along the lower edge 16A, upper edge 16B, and outer upper edge 16D of the pair of side portions 16, the pair of side portions 16 becomes more easily stretchable when the user U wears the brassiere 10.

[0046] (2 shoulder straps) 2 and 3, one of the two shoulder straps 18 is connected between the stretch panel 50 of the cup portion 14 on one side in the width direction and the side portion 16 on one side in the width direction. The other shoulder strap 18 is connected between the stretch panel 50 of the cup portion 14 on the other side in the width direction and the side portion 16 on the other side in the width direction. One end portion 18A of the shoulder strap 18 is connected to the stretch panel 50 (see FIG. 2).

[0047] As shown in FIG. 10, the other end 18B of the shoulder strap 18 is connected to an outer surface 90A of a corner 90 between the upper edge 16B and the outer upper edge 16D of the side portion 16. The corner 90 of the side portion 16 is an example of the upper edge of the back of the side portion 16. The outer surface 90A of the corner 90 of the side portion 16 is provided with an attachment portion 92 to which an insertion tool 100 is attached, around which the shoulder strap 18 is folded back. In other words, the attachment portion 92 is exposed on the outer surface 90A side of the corner 90 of the side portion 16. As shown in FIG. 9, the attachment portion 92 is not exposed on the back surface 90B side of the corner 90 of the side portion 16.

[0048] The through-hole 100 has two elongated openings 100A. An attachment section 92 made of a rectangular piece of cloth is inserted through one of the openings 100A of the through-hole 100. The attachment section 92 is inserted through one of the openings 100A and folded back, and is sewn to the outer surface 90A of the corner section 90 of the side section 16. The other end section 18B of the shoulder strap 18 is inserted through the other opening 100A of the through-hole 100. Although not shown in the drawings, the other end section 18B of the shoulder strap 18 is inserted through the other opening 100A and folded back, and is fixed to the middle section of the shoulder strap 18.

[0049] As shown in Fig. 10, the shoulder straps 18 are attached to outer surfaces 90A of corners 90 of the side portions 16 in the opposite direction to the cup portion 14 connected to the side portions 16, at a set angle θ with respect to the horizontal. The angle θ is preferably 35 degrees or more and 55 degrees or less, more preferably 38 degrees or more and 52 degrees or less, and even more preferably 42 degrees or more and 48 degrees or less. As an example, the angle θ is approximately 45 degrees. The configuration of the attachment portions 92 for attaching the shoulder straps 18 to the pair of side portions 16 is symmetrical.

[0050] (Action and Effects) Next, the operation and effects of this embodiment will be described.

[0051] The brassiere 10 of this embodiment includes a front portion 12 having a pair of cup portions 14 on the left and right, and a pair of side portions 16 connected to the side portions of one cup portion 14 and the other cup portion 14, respectively. The pair of side portions 16 are provided with a fastening structure 60. The brassiere 10 also includes two shoulder straps 18 extending from the side of the upper side edges of the pair of cup portions 14 to the side of the upper edge of the back of the side portions 16 connected to the cup portions 14. Furthermore, the brassiere 10 includes a plurality of bones 40 inside the pair of cup portions 14 and on the side of the side portions 16 connected to the cup portions 14. The plurality of bones 40 are arranged at intervals along the connection portions 24 with the side portions 16, and are arranged in a direction intersecting the horizontal direction so that the upper portions are on the outside relative to the lower portions.

[0052] As a result, when the user U wears the brassiere 10, the two shoulder straps 18 are hung on the shoulders of the user U, and the pair of cup parts 14 covers the left and right breasts of the user U. In this state, the pair of side parts 16 are fastened to each other on the back of the user U by the fastening structure 60. As shown in FIG. 4, when the user U wears the brassiere 10, the bones 40 exert a pulling force in the direction of the arrow A intersecting the bones 40, and it is possible to move the flesh of the armpits from the armpits to the center of the bust. In addition, the bones 40 (for example, three) are arranged at intervals, and the part between the bones 40 in the pair of cup parts 14 is easy to stretch, and the pair of cup parts 14 is easy to fit along the curved surface of the bust of the user U. Therefore, the brassiere 10 can move the flesh of the armpits of the user U to the center of the bust to adjust the bust line.

[0053] In addition, the brassiere 10 is provided with a stretch panel 50 that is wider than the width of the shoulder straps 18 and extends in the direction in which the shoulder straps 18 are connected, at a position including the outer upper edge 14C of the pair of cup parts 14. The stretch panel 50 is arranged up to an area including the upper side of the multiple bones 40. As a result, as shown in FIG. 4, when the user U wears the brassiere 10, the stretch panel 50 exerts a pulling force in the direction of arrow B that intersects with the longitudinal direction of the stretch panel 50, making it possible to move the flesh of the armpits from the armpits to the center of the bust. Therefore, in the brassiere 10, the stretch panel 50 moves the flesh of the user U's armpits toward the center of the bust, making it possible to more effectively shape the bust line.

[0054] In addition, in the brassiere 10, the bones 40 are made of resin. Resin bones 40 are softer and more easily deformed than metal bones. As a result, when the user U wears the brassiere 10, the resin bones 40 are more likely to deform to fit the curved surface of the user U's skin when they come into contact with the user U's skin, compared to when the bones are made of metal, and the user U can feel less pain. Also, compared to when the bones are made of metal, it is possible to suppress deterioration of the image due to metal allergies, etc. Furthermore, compared to metal bones, the resin bones 40 are thinner and lighter, so that the body is less likely to be burdened when wearing the brassiere 10.

[0055] In addition, in the brassiere 10, the number of bones 40 is two or more and five or less. This makes it easier to arrange the bones 40 in a wide range inside the pair of cup parts 14 along the connection part 24 with the side part 16, compared to when there is only one bone. Also, compared to when one bone is arranged in the same range as the bones 40, the area around the bones 40 is easier to deform to fit the curved surface of the skin of the user U. Therefore, by arranging two or more and five or less bones 40, the force supporting the bust of the user U and drawing the flesh of the sides to the center is stronger than when there is only one bone. That is, with one bone, it is difficult to prevent the flesh of the chest from flowing to the back, and it is easy for it to flow, so two or more and five or less bones 40 are arranged. Also, compared to when there are more than five bones, it is possible to reduce costs, and it is easy to arrange the bones 40 in a preferable range where the effect can be obtained when the brassiere 10 is worn. Therefore, in the brassiere 10, the bones 40 draw the flesh of the side of the user U to the center of the bust, and the bust line can be more effectively adjusted.

[0056] In addition, in the brassiere 10, band-shaped rubber members 72, 74, 76 are arranged inside the pair of side parts 16 along the lower edge 16A, the upper edge 16B, and the outer upper edge 16D, which are edges excluding the part connected to the cup part 14. The rubber members 72, 74, 76 are sandwiched between two pieces of fabric on the outer and inner sides of the side parts 16, so that the rubber members 72, 74, 76 do not directly touch the skin. As a result, when the user U wears the brassiere 10, the rubber members 72, 74, 76 do not directly touch the skin, so it can be used even if the skin is sensitive, and the rubber members 72, 74, 76 are less likely to bite into the brassiere 10 when worn. This improves the comfort of the brassiere 10.

[0057] Furthermore, in the brassiere 10, the attachment parts 92 for connecting the two shoulder straps 18 to the pair of side parts 16 are provided on the outer surfaces 90A of the pair of side parts 16. This ensures that when the user U wears the brassiere 10, the attachment parts 92 of the two shoulder straps 18 do not come into contact with the skin of the user U. This improves the comfort of the brassiere 10.

[0058] In addition, in the brassiere 10, the shoulder straps 18 are attached to the upper edge of the back of the side portions 16 in the opposite direction to the cup portions 14 connected to the side portions 16, and at an angle of 35 degrees to 55 degrees with respect to the horizontal direction. As a result, when the user U wears the brassiere 10, the shoulder straps 18 are less likely to come off the user U's shoulders compared to when the angle is greater than 55 degrees. Also, when the user U wears the brassiere 10, wrinkles are less likely to form near the other end 18B of the shoulder straps 18 compared to when the angle is less than 35 degrees. This improves the comfort of the brassiere 10.

[0059] 〔others〕 The number, width, and length of the multiple bones 40 are not limited to the configuration of the first embodiment, and can be changed.

[0060] Furthermore, the shape of the stretch panel 50 is not limited to the configuration of the first embodiment, but can be modified.

[0061] Although the present invention has been described in detail with respect to a specific embodiment, it will be apparent to those skilled in the art that the present invention is not limited to such an embodiment, and that various other embodiments are possible within the scope of the present invention.
