Solution Overview

Problem

Individuals with naturally flat or less prominent buttocks face challenges in keeping lower body garments in place, leading to discomfort and embarrassment, especially for those with limited physical dexterity, and there is a need for a solution that enhances body shape without using belts or suspenders.

Innovation Solution

A shape-enhancing camisole garment device with adjustable shoulder and secondary straps, featuring a rear pocket for a convex foam pad that mimics buttocks, securing lower garments and enhancing body shape.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Reliability

If belts or suspenders are used to hold lower body garments in place, then garment stability is improved, but comfort and ease of operation deteriorate due to digging into the waist or difficulty in fastening

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvegarment stabilityVSAvoidease of fastening
Core Design Contradiction:
ReliabilityVSEase of operation

Solution Approach 1:

The invention divides the body support function into two separate components: the camisole provides upper body support while the pad provides lower body shape enhancement. This segmentation eliminates the need for belts or suspenders around the waist, thereby maintaining garment stability without compromising comfort or ease of operation.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #1Segmentation

Solution Approach 2:

The pad acts as an intermediary element that creates artificial body contours to prevent garment slippage. Instead of directly constraining the garment with belts or suspenders, the pad indirectly maintains garment position by enhancing the body shape that the garment rests upon.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #24Intermediary (Mediator)

2Reliability

If belts or suspenders are used to secure lower body garments, then garment stability is improved, but device complexity and physical dexterity requirements increase

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvegarment stabilityVSAvoidcomplexity of fastening mechanism
Core Design Contradiction:
ReliabilityVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

By separating the support functions into distinct components (camisole and pad), the invention eliminates complex fastening mechanisms like belts and suspenders. The pad simply rests in the pocket, requiring no fastening operations, thereby reducing device complexity while maintaining garment stability.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #1Segmentation

Solution Approach 2:

The pad automatically maintains garment position through its shape-enhancing properties without requiring any active engagement or fastening by the user. The system serves itself by creating the necessary body contours that prevent garment slippage passively.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #25Self-service

3Shape

If traditional shapewear is used to enhance body shape, then body shape enhancement is achieved, but comfort deteriorates due to restrictive and uncomfortable materials

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvebody shape enhancementVSAvoidcomfort during wear
Core Design Contradiction:
ShapeVSEase of operation

Solution Approach 1:

The invention separates the body enhancement function from the garment itself by using a removable pad that can be inserted or removed as needed. This allows the camisole to remain comfortable and breathable while the pad provides the necessary shape enhancement, eliminating the need for restrictive shapewear materials.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #1Segmentation

Solution Approach 2:

Instead of using restrictive materials throughout the entire garment, the invention applies shape enhancement only where needed through the strategically placed pad in the lower body area. The rest of the camisole can be made from comfortable, breathable fabrics without compromising overall body shape enhancement.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #3Local quality

AI summary

A shape-enhancing camisole garment device is provided. The device is designed to enhance the user's lower body shape and secure garments. The body may take the form of various upper-body garments and is made from fabric materials such as polyester or nylon. It includes at least one adjustable shoulder strap equipped with fasteners for securing the garment. Additionally, a secondary strap wraps around the pelvis for further stability. A rear pocket holds a foam pad shaped like buttocks, which enhances the wearer's body shape and helps prevent lower garments from slipping. The method of use involves securing the device and inserting the pad into the pocket, optionally closing it, before wearing lower garments to achieve the desired effect.
