Abstract
A heat dissipative brassiere cup comprises air passages 15 or ventilation holes in a foam layer 12 of the brassiere; after the foam layer 12 is set between an inner lining layer 13 and an outer lining layer 11 the brassiere cup is formed by thermal pressing by a mold. Such arrangement allows the body heat to be dissipated through the air passages 15 and ventilation holes out of the body for the heat dissipation effect. A gauze layer 16 is disposed between the foam layer and the inner and outer lining layers, which can reinforce the strength of the brassiere cup and prevent the brassiere cup from being deformed.
Description
Heat dissipative brassiere cup
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
Field of the Invention
The present invention relates to a brassiere cup, more particularly to an improved brassiere cup with the ventilation and heat dissipation functions.
Description of the Prior Art
In general, the breasts of oriental women are smaller, therefore brassiere cups with support and centralized effect is desired when they select their purchase. However the structure of prior-art brassiere cup is roughly divided into foam cups and silk floss cups. Please refer to FIG. 1. The foam cup A is composed of an outer lining layer B. a foam layer C and an inner lining layer D, and the foam layer is disposed between the outer lining layer B and the inner layer D. The brassiere cup is formed after the thermal pressing by molds.
The lower edge of the inner surface of the brassiere cup is generally made thicker to give a better support to the breast, and thus makes the ventilation more difficult. Further, after the washing of the brassiere for many times, the brassiere cup will be deformed. This is the issue that the manufacturer needs to break through and improve.
Summary of the Invention
The primary objective of the present invention is to overcome the shortcoming of the poor ventilation of the prior-art brassiere, and to provide a brassiere cup with good ventilation and heat dissipation while avoiding deformations to the brassiere cup.
The design of the brassiere cup in accordance with the present invention has air passages or ventilation holes in the foam layer of the brassiere cup, so that the wearer's body heat can be dissipated from the inner lining layer to the outer lining layer to effectively attain the ventilation and heat dissipation effect and provide a more comfortable underwear for the wearer. Furthermore, the present invention also designs a gauze layer between the inner and outer lining layers to reinforce the strength of the brassiere cup and prevent it from being deformed, so that the curve of the brassiere cup can be more upstanding and protrusive.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS
Please refer to FIGs. 2, 3, and 4 for the disclosure of a first preferred embodiment (I). The wavy dissipative foam brassiere cup 10 of the present invention comprises an outer lining layer 11, a foam layer 12, and an inner lining layer 13, wherein the foam layer 12 is disposed between the outer lining layer 13 and the inner lining layer 11, and forms a threedimensional shape of the brassiere cup after the thermal pressing by a mold, and the foam layer 12 has a plurality of cuts 14, and the cuts form an air passage 15 for ventilation and heat dissipation at predetermined positions, and these layers are stacked in order before forming the threedimensional brassiere cup 10 by the thermal pressing of the mold.. The transversal depth of the cut after its formation will be decreased according to the thickness of the brassiere cup, so that the body heat can be dissipated quickly from the inner lining layer 13 to the outer lining layer 11. Such arrangement shortens the ventilation distance between the inner and outer lining layers 13, 11 without changing the thickness of the brassiere cup, and effectively maximizes the ventilation and heat dissipation effect. The trouble caused by body heat can be eliminated effectively, so that the wearer may have a more comfortable underwear.
