Abstract
A method and apparatus is disclosed for calculating cup and band size for a brassiere comprising the steps of obtaining an under-the-bust measurement indicative of band size and a bust measurement indicative of cup size. If the under-the-bust measurement is even, then the apparatus increases the band size by a first selected amount and decreases the cup size by a second selected amount. The resulting measurements are selectively displayed on a screen according to sizing standards in the U.S. or according to sizing standards in other countries.
Claims24
A method for calculating cup and band size for a brassiere comprising the steps of:
- obtaining an under-the-bust measurement M1 [indicative of band size] and a bust measurement M2 [indicative of cup size, and if the under-the-bust measurement is even, then:];
- determining an under-the-bust integer I1 based on the non-integer component from the under-the-bust measurement M1;
- if said under-the-bust integer I1 is odd, then augmenting said under-the-bust-integer by an odd number, otherwise augmenting the under-the-bust integer by an even number to obtain a band integer B;
- if said band integer B is an odd number, then the band size is said band integer, otherwise the band size is the band integer augmented by a first selected amount;
- generating a cup integer I2 from said bust measurement M2;
- generating a first cup size X from said cup integer I2;
- if said under the bust integer I1 is eve, increasing said band integer by a first amount and decreasing the first cup size by a second selected amount.
-3. (canceled)
An apparatus for calculating cup and band size for a brassiere, the apparatus comprising means for measuring girth, means for processing cup and band size, means for inputting data into the processing means and means for displaying information, where the apparatus:
- obtains an under-the-bust measurement indicative of a standard band size and a bust measurement indicative of a standard cup size, and if the under-the-bust measurement is even, then the apparatus:
- increases the band size by a first selected amount;
- and
- decreases the cup size by a second selected amount.
A method for calculating cup and band size for a brassiere comprising the steps of:
- displaying at least one indicator of a country;
- receiving an input indicative of a selected country
- obtaining bust and cup measurements that conform to standards in said selected country;
- and
- displaying the bust and cup measurements.
An apparatus for calculating cup and band size for a brassiere, the apparatus comprising means for measuring girth, means for processing cup and band size, means for inputting data into the processing means and means for displaying information, where the apparatus:
- displays at least one indicator of a country;
- receives an input indicative of a selected country;
- obtains first bust and cup measurements using standards from a different country;
- conforms the first bust and cup measurements to standards in said selected country;
- and
- displays the conformed bust and cup measurements.
A method for calculating cup and band size for a brassiere comprising the steps of:
- obtaining bust and cup measurements that conform to sizing standards in a first country;
- displaying at least one indicator of a second country;
- receiving an input indicative of selecting said second country;
- conforming said bust and cup measurements to sizing standards in said second country;
- and
- displaying the bust and cup measurements.
An apparatus for calculating cup and band size for a brassiere, the apparatus comprising means for measuring girth, means for processing cup and band size, means for inputting data into the processing means and means for displaying information, where the apparatus:
- obtains bust and cup measurements that conform to sizing standards in a first country;
- displays at least one indicator of a second country;
- receives an input indicative of selecting said second country;
- transforns said bust and cup measurements to sizing standards in said selected country;
- and
- displays the conformed bust and cup measurements.
