 DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS

The characteristics of the present invention can be understood better when following preferred embodiments are considered together with the drawings provided.

FIG. 1 is a three dimensional disassembled view of the present invention structure; and FIG. 2 is an assembled view of the present invention structure; and FIG. 3 is a partial cutaway view of the present invention structure showing the present invention vibrating breast pad with air ventilation, wherein said breast pad 1 comprises at least: a breast pad main body 10 and a micro vibration component 20; wherein,

Said breast pad main body 10 is formed as a whole by injection molding of a soft rubber material, and the soft rubber material can provide the breast pad main body 10 with the characteristics of flexibility and dilatational viscoelastisicity by means of silicone or TPR (thermoplastic rubber). Said breast pad main body 10 comprises a receiving hole 11 on one side and this receiving hole 11 is combined with an air vent 12 that runs through the structure. Said receiving hole 11 has a position-fixing part 111. Moreover, at the opposite side, said air vent 12 combines the other end of said receiving hole 11 with a row of air ducts 13. Said row of air ducts 13 is formed of plurality of interlinked grooves 131 opened on the breast pad main body 10 inner surface, and the depth of said grooves vary between 2 to 5 mm, and the optimum depth thereof is 3 mm; while the width of said grooves 131 varies between 2 to 5 mm, the optimum width of said grooves 131 is 3 mm, and said breast pad main body 10 comprises at least one exhaust vent 14 on said grooves 131, and said exhaust vent 14 diameter is between 1 to 2 mm, and the optimum diameter is 2 mm;

Said micro vibration component 20 is placed into the receiving hole 11 of said breast pad main body 10, and said micro vibration component 20 comprises an open-ended 211 casing 21, a vibration motor 22, a battery 23, an activation component 24, and a fan 25. Said vibration motor 22 and battery 23 are electrically connected and installed in the casing 21. Said activation component 24 is positioned on one end of the casing 21. Said vibration motor 22 is coupled to said fan 25 and said fan 25 is positioned inside the casing 21 close to the open end 211 thereof. Said fan 25 is adjacent to said air vent 12 and also said casing 21 comprises at least one air intake vent 212 positioned at the other side of the open end 211 that is the opposite of the fan 25.

During use, the connection point of said receiving hole 11 and air vent 12 have a difference in diameter which forms said position-fixing part 111. Moreover, said receiving hole 11 diameter is greater than said air vent 12 diameter. By means of the position-fixing part 111, the vibration motor 22 enters into said receiving hole 11 and stays in a fixed position. Furthermore, the breast pad main body 10 has dilatational viscoelasticity thanks to the soft rubber material, which enables the receiving hole 11 cover the vibration motor 22 in a tense and inseparably close manner. The vibration motor 22 actuates when the activation component 24 is pressed. The vibration generated by the vibration motor 22 is transmitted to said breast pad main body 10 and at the same time the vibration motor 22 drives the fan 25, so that it rotates and generates ventilating current and the speed of the ventilating current increases via the air intake vent 212 which helps the air flow in a smooth and easy manner. The ventilating current goes through the open end 211 and air vent 12 by flowing through the interlinked grooves 131 of the row of air ducts 13 and the airflow goes out by passing through all of the exhaust vents 14, so that it provides the effect of dissipating heat.

Of course, as shown in FIG. 4, plurality of convex granules 15 can be positioned on the inner surface of said breast pad main body 10, so that, when in use, the breast pad main body 10 form gaps with the convex granules 15 and the contact surface, so that the airflow can escape through the gaps and increase the ventilation of the entire body and thus contribute to rapid dissipation of heat. Moreover, at least one row of wind channels 17 are placed inside said receiving hole 11 and the vibration motor 22 is inserted into said receiving hole 11. When the fan 25 is rotated to generate airflow, the air intake vent 212 and the row of wind channels 17 form an air way, so that not only the flow of air becomes smoother, but also heat can be dissipated and the fan 25 is prevented from catching fire due to tight conditions.

Moreover, depth of said grooves can vary between 2-5 mm and the optimum depth is 3 mm; while the width of said grooves can vary between 2-5 mm and the optimum width is 3 mm. In this way, when the fan generates airflow, the grooves help scattering of the airflow and the optimum transmission rate can be achieved. Besides, the diameter of said exhaust vent can vary between 1-2 mm and the optimum diameter is 2 mm. These dimensions allow the airflow be directed to the exhaust vent through the grooves and achieve optimum smooth flow conditions.

Said grooves 131 comprise plurality of concave parts 132 and said membrane 30 comprises plurality of convex parts 31 that are positioned opposite to said plurality of concave parts 132. The membrane 30 blocks the concave parts 132 by means of the convex parts 31, so that they are laminated on the row of air ducts 13. Moreover, said membrane 30 comprises a through hole 32 across said exhaust vent 14 and when in use, the membrane 30 can release far infrared ray or negative ions, which would be emitted and spread out through the through hole 32 and the exhaust vent 14.

FIG. 6 shows a second embodiment of the present invention, in which said breast pad main body 10 comprises plurality of cavities 16 on the inner surface. Said cavities 16 can be filled with functional granules 40 and diameter of said cavities 16 would vary between 5-8 mm. Said functional granules 40 have more or less spherical shape with 5-8 mm size. Furthermore, breast pad main body 10 has dilatational viscoelasticity via the soft rubber material in order to enable the cavity 16 fix said functional granules 40, so that they would have compact tension. Said functional granules 40 having more or less spherical shape contact with the skin directly or indirectly and provide a comfortable feeling. Also, since said functional granules 40 can have far infrared granules or said functional granules 40 can have negative ion granules, during use, they can release far infrared rays or negative ions, so that the user can experience the beneficial health protection effects for the body.

To summarize the first and second embodiments, according to FIG. 7, a piece of cloth 50 can be placed on the outer surface of the breast pad main body 10 and said piece of cloth 50 can be made of lace material or air permeable (breathing) material and it is worn next to the skin and provides a comfortable feeling to the wearer.
