Abstract (en)

An extendable support frame for an undergarment, relating generally to the garment field and more particularly to a functional component for the women's undergarments, is characterized in that it comprises a support rib and a sliding sleeve fitted over the support rib, at top end of which sliding sleeve a fixing hole is provided; the sliding sleeve is fitted over one end of the support rib, and a fixing hole is provided at the other end of the support rib. Compared with the prior art, the invention is of easier manufacture and flexible extension by reducing intermediate components, and the invention can bring about extension variation of its length while performing support function, which therefore solves the technical problem that the support frame of the slit of the undergarment such as the women's form-fitting undergarments generates the buckling caused by the length being not compressed. The wearing of the women's form-fitting undergarments such as girdling garments is abutted with the body and is aesthetic in appearance. The wearer feels more pleased, comfortable and tight-fitting in movement. Moreover, the service lives of the women's form-fitting undergarments which are provided with the port frames are prolonged.
