Abstract

A bra liner is an apparatus that conforms under a breast and is positioned in between the breast and a bra cup. The apparatus includes a flat liner body and at least one piece of adhesive. The flat liner body presses against the underside of a breast and an inner surface of a bra cup. The flat liner body includes an absorbent layer and a backing layer. The absorbent layer collects and retains sweat from the breast. The absorbent layer is connected across the backing layer. The absorbent layer and the backing layer are coextensive with each other. The at least one piece of adhesive is distributed across the backing layer. The at least one piece of adhesive is fixed onto the backing layer, opposite to the absorbent layer. The apparatus further includes a sealing sheet to prevent the at least one piece of adhesive from sticking to unwanted surfaces.

Claims (42)

1. A bra liner comprising: a flat liner body; at least one piece of adhesive; a sealing sheet a quantity of fragrance the flat liner body comprising an absorbent layer and a backing layer; the absorbent layer being made of a sweat-absorbing material: the backing layer being a perforated plastic film: the sealing sheet being made of waxed paper the absorbent layer being connected across the backing layer; the absorbent layer and the backing layer being coextensive with each other; the absorbent layer being configured to contact human breast skin and configured to receive sweat from the human breast skin the backing layer being configured to be offset from the human skin, configured to retain the sweat within the absorbent layer in between the human breast skin and the backing layer, and to prevent the sweat from contacting a bra cup pressed against the human breast skin; the at least one piece of adhesive being distributed across the backing layer; the at least one piece of adhesive being fixed onto the backing layer, opposite to the absorbent layer; the sealing sheet being positioned adjacent with the at least one piece of adhesive, opposite the absorbent layer the sealing sheet being removably attached with the at least one piece of adhesive: and the quantity of fragrance being integrated into the absorbent layer;

the flat liner body further comprising a protruding rim; the protruding rim being perimetrically positioned with the absorbent layer; and the protruding rim being fixed onto the absorbent layer, opposite the backing layer.

2. The bra liner as claimed in claim 1 comprising:

the flat liner body further comprising a first lengthwise edge and a second lengthwise edge;

the first lengthwise edge being positioned opposite the second lengthwise edge across the flat liner body;

the first lengthwise edge being convex;

the second lengthwise edge being concave;

the first lengthwise edge being positioned concentric with the second lengthwise edge; and,

a length of the first lengthwise edge being larger than a length of the second lengthwise edge.

3. The bra liner as claimed in claim 1 comprising:

the flat liner body further comprising a first lateral end and a second lateral end;

the first lateral end being positioned opposite the second lateral end along the flat liner body; and,

the first lateral end and the second lateral end being convex.

4. A bra liner comprising:

a flat liner body;

at least one piece of adhesive;

a sealing sheet;

a quantity of fragrance;

the flat liner body comprising an absorbent layer, a backing layer, a protruding rim, a first lengthwise edge, and a second lengthwise edge;

the absorbent layer being made of a sweat-absorbing material;

the backing layer being a perforated plastic film;

the sealing sheet being made of waxed paper;

the absorbent layer being connected across the backing layer;

the absorbent layer and the backing layer being coextensive with each other;

the absorbent layer being configured to contact human breast skin and configured to receive sweat from the human breast skin;

the backing layer being configured to be offset from the human skin, configured to retain the sweat within the absorbent layer in between the human breast skin and the backing layer, and to prevent the sweat from contacting a bra cup pressed against the human breast skin;

the at least one piece of adhesive being distributed across the backing layer;

the at least one piece of adhesive being fixed onto the backing layer, opposite to the absorbent layer;

the protruding rim being perimetrically positioned with the absorbent layer;

the protruding rim being fixed onto the absorbent layer, opposite the backing layer;

the first lengthwise edge being positioned opposite the second lengthwise edge across the flat liner body;

the first lengthwise edge being convex;

the second lengthwise edge being concave;

the first lengthwise edge being positioned concentric with the second lengthwise edge;

a length of the first lengthwise edge being larger than a length of the second lengthwise edge;

the sealing sheet being positioned adjacent with the at least one piece of adhesive, opposite the absorbent layer;

the sealing sheet being removably attached with the at least one piece of adhesive; and

the quantity of fragrance being integrated into the absorbent layer.

5. The bra liner as claimed in claim 4 comprising:

the flat liner body further comprising a first lateral end and a second lateral end;

the first lateral end being positioned opposite the second lateral end along the flat liner body; and,

the first lateral end and the second lateral end being convex.
