A wearable system for applying a vacuum to breast of a user comprises first and second elastically deformable membranes for positioning over each other and over the breast, with the first (inner) membrane defining a milk collection volume over the breast. The first membrane is manually deformable by actuating the second (outer) membrane, and a valve releases air from the milk collection volume. A pressure reduction is thereby generated when the first membrane tries returns to its default shape. A space between the first and second membranes is vented to the surrounding atmosphere to allow the second membrane to return to its default shape without generating a reduction in pressure. The second membrane functions as a protecting outer layer for the first membrane.

A breast milk flow monitoring system in the form of a milk flow monitoring sensor is described and includes an electrode array and a controller. The electrodes include electrically conductive surfaces arranged to contact a skin surface of a breast. The controller generates a first excitation signal delivered via a first electrode to a first location on the breast and generates a second excitation signal delivered via the first electrode to the first location on the breast. The controller receives a first current response signal and a second current response signal. A bioimpedance spectroscopy analysis of the first current response signal and the second current response signal is performed, where the bioimpedance spectroscopy analysis is calibrated for breast milk flow. A breast milk flow parameter is determined based on the bioimpedance spectroscopy analysis.

This utility model relates to a wearable breast pump that mimics sucking, and relates to the field of breast pump technology. It includes a milk bowl, a sucking component, a milk bowl cover connected to the milk bowl, and a breast pump main unit. The milk bowl cover has a milk suction channel, and the sucking component is detachably connected to the milk suction channel. The breast pump main unit contains an air source device. The milk bowl has a positive pressure air path that connects the sucking component and the air source device. The air source device is connected to the sucking component through the positive pressure air path and can inflate or deflate the sucking component. When the air source device inflates the sucking component, the sucking component deforms and expands within the milk suction channel, squeezing the nipple, simulating the jaw pressing action of an infant during swallowing. Through repeated inflation and deflation, the sucking component continuously deforms, expands, and contracts within the milk suction channel. By simulating the sucking action of an infant, it can stimulate the mother's pituitary gland to secrete prolactin, thereby increasing milk production and meeting the infant's nutritional needs.
