Definitions
- the invention relates to a breast prosthesis intended for insertion or insertion into a brassiere, made by molding, made of soft-elastic, porous, adhesive, skin-colored silicone rubber cross-linked with hardener, consisting essentially of a central part surrounded by an edge, the convex outer surface of which has the shape of a female breast with wart and areola and its concave inner wall is arched in a bosom shape while maintaining the desired prosthesis wall thickness and deepened in the top area to reduce the prosthesis wall thickness.
- the middle part is hollow and consequently compresses when pressure is applied to it.
- the weight distribution of these prostheses does not correspond to that of a natural breast.
- the invention has for its object to limit the compression of the breast prosthesis when subjected to pressure to the given size in a natural breast with the greatest possible approximation of the elastomechanical behavior of the prosthesis to that of a natural breast.
- a similar weight distribution has been striven for, among other things, to enable natural sagging and rocking of the breast prosthesis.
- the invention consists in that the middle part of the prosthesis in the dome area having the depression is filled with a (semolina) mush-like mixture of silicone jelly and vulcanized silicone crumbs (silicon grits) and by a flexible protective layer vulcanized on the edge of the depression made of very tough , hardened with cross-linked silicone rubber.
- a (semolina) mush-like mixture of silicone jelly and vulcanized silicone crumbs (silicon grits) and by a flexible protective layer vulcanized on the edge of the depression made of very tough , hardened with cross-linked silicone rubber.
- Fig. 1 a plan view of the front
- the prosthesis which is produced as a casting from a soft silicone rubber compound crosslinked with hardener, has a central part 1, the convex outer surface of which has the shape of a female breast with wart 2 and areola 3, while its concave inner surface consists of two, merge into each other through a step-shaped paragraph 7 the areas li and lii.
- the surfaces of both areas li and lii are bent like a bush, the area of area li being at a greater distance from the outer surface la than the surface area lii.
- the prosthesis wall thickness is accordingly reduced in the area lii, to a wall thickness of approximately 1.5 mm.
- the layer la-lii approximately obtains the elastic properties of the human skin.
- the wall area li merges with a constant curvature ie the rear wall of a spur-like, thin, flexible edge part 5 surrounding the middle part, which is extended on the armpit-side prosthesis side to an extension 6 which is intended for sealing the armpit-lymphatic gland area.
- the area forming the areola 3 with wart 2 consists of a very soft silicone rubber compound (crosslinked with hardener). It is made from a mixture of hardener with silicone rubber that gives a greater degree of softness than the rest of the prosthesis body.
- a protective layer 8 consisting of a very tough silicone rubber compound is vulcanized, which is approximately 1 mm thick and air-and liquid-tightly sealed between the surface lii, the shoulder 7 and the layer 8 completes.
- This space is filled with a mass 9, which consists of a mixture of gelatinous silicone jelly and vulcanized silicone crumbs.
- the individual crumbs are roughly the size of a semolina and are mixed with the jelly with a 30% share, so that the mixture has a semolina-like consistency.
- a preferably round PVC plate 11 of about 25 mm in diameter is vulcanized into a corresponding recess in the lower surface of the edge, slightly below the edge sheet located at the top when the prosthesis is worn, on the edge strip lying towards the center of the body, which is used to attach a double-sided Adhesive plate is used, with the help of which the prosthesis edge 5 can be glued to the body.
- the mass from which the middle part 1, the edge part 5 with extension 6, the filling 9 and the protective layer 8 and the plate 11 are formed is colored skin-colored.
- the mass from which areola 3 with wart 2 is made is colored in the color of a natural areola with wart.
- the edge part la-li of the middle part 1 forms a so-called static frame for the soft, rocking upper dome part, which keeps the prosthesis in shape.
- the jelly filling 9 prevents the prosthesis from being compressed when pressure is exerted on the areola area or in another direction and, at the same time, causes pressure compensation in conjunction with the protective layer 8, so that the middle part of the prosthesis reacts resiliently to the effects of pressure.
- the elastic properties of the prosthesis have thus been optimally matched to those of the natural breast.
- the prosthesis weight also corresponds to that of a natural breast.
- the breast prosthesis according to the invention is manufactured as follows:
- the areola area is first cast with wart from a mixture of silicone rubber and hardener which gives a high degree of softness and allowed to vulcanize at approx. 120 ° C.
- the middle part 1 with edge 5 and extension 6 is then cast from a silicone-rubber hardener mixture which results in a lower degree of softness, followed by a vulcanization process at about 120 ° C.
- the upper part of the mold is removed and the dome part up to the upper edge of the step 7 poured with silicone "semolina porridge".
- the mass to form the very tough final layer 8 is spread onto the surface of the filling, with the edge of step 7 also being coated.
- the through holes 10 can be formed by pins inserted into the mold. After vulcanization of the plate 11, the prosthesis is completed.

Abstract
Prothese mammaire constituee par une forme coulee, destinee a etre posee ou introduite dans un soutien-gorge, en caoutchouc au silicone reticule avec durcisseur, elastique, mou, poreux, adherant, de la couleur de la peau, qui se compose en particulier d'une partie centrale entouree d'un bord, dont la surface exterieure couvexe presente la forme d'un sein avec mamelon et areole et dont la paroi interieure concave est galbee sans porter atteinte a l'epaisseur de la paroi de la forme de sein souhaitee de la prothese et est creusee dans la zone arrondie afin de diminuer l'epaisseur de la paroi de la prothese. Pour limiter la deformation de la prothese a celui d'un sein naturel, cause par des effets de pression en tenant compte au mieux du comportement elasto-mecanique de la prothese en comparaison d'un sein naturel et pour atteindre avant tout une repartition de poids egale qui permet entre autre l'affaissement naturel du sein, la partie centrale de la prothese (1) est remplie dans la zone arrondie comportant un creux avec un melange (9) pateux de gelee de silicone et de miettes de silicone vulcanisees (granule de silicone) et fermee par une couche (8) de protection souple en caoutchouc au silicone avec durcisseur soudee au bord du creux. Dans le procede de fabrication d'une telle prothese, on confectionne par coulage, respectivement remplissage avec un melange de caoutchouc au silicone et durcisseur ou gelee de silicone et miettes de silicone, l'areole avec mamelon, la paroi de la partie centrale (1) avec bord (5) et prolongement (6), la masse de remplissage (9) de la partie centrale (1) et la couche de protection (8) l'une apres l'autre.
