[0085] As shown in
[0086] As shown in
[0087] The suction part 210 comes into close contact with a user's breast and is thus attached thereto. Further, the breast pump 230 applies a breast pumping pressure to the suction part 210, thereby pumping breast milk.
[0088] As shown in
[0089] Accordingly, the breast pumping pressure received from the breast pump 230 is applied to the suction part 210 attached to the user's breast, thereby allowing the breast milk to be pumped, and the pumped breast milk is introduced and stored in the breast milk container through the connector 240 and a silicone head 280.

[0125] The pressure application part 340 is cylindrical and is open at the side toward the suction part 310. Further, the pressure application part 340 has the pump connector 341 disposed on the other surface to the open side in such a manner as to be connected to the pump 330 through the air hose.
[0126] Under the structure of the pressure application part 340, accordingly, the pressure applied from the pump 330 is very effectively transferred to the suction part 310 through the pressure application part 340.
[0127] In addition, as shown in
[0128] In more detail, the coupling part 360 is provided with an integral type structure in which a pump support 331 for supporting the pump 330, the pressure application part 340, and a battery housing 371 for accommodating the battery 370 are formed integrally with each other.
[0129] The outer appearance of the nipple correction machine is formed by means of the coupled structure of the coupling part 360 with the cover part 320, and also, the internal parts of the nipple correction machine are accommodated compactedly in the coupled structure.
[0130] Accordingly, the nipple correction machine according to the present invention can be provided with a more compact integral type structure, thereby lowering a manufacturing cost and being conveniently carried and used.
[0131]
[0132] As shown in
[0133] The pump 330 applies the sucking pressure to the suction part 310 and the breast molding part 315, so that the user's breast can be corrected by means of the sucking pressure.
[0134] In more detail, the breast molding part 315 has a function of breast molding by means of the sucking pressure applied from the pressure application part 340.
[0135] So as to provide effective breast molding, the breast molding part 315 has various shapes selected by the user, so that it can be detachably mounted on the suction part 310 in such a manner as to be freely selected by the user's need.
[0136] Further, the breast molding part 315 is made of a plastic or silicone material in such a manner as to be kept to a given shape at the time when the sucking pressure is applied, and the contacted surface of the breast molding part 315 with the user's breast becomes slant from the exposed surface of the suction part 310.
[0137] Furthermore, the breast enhancement machine according to the present invention can correct the user's breast as well as the user's nipple.
[0138] In detail, the sucking pressure applied from the pump 330 to the pressure application part 340 is transferred to a space formed by the suction part 310 and the breast molding part 315, so that it corrects the user's breast as well as the user's nipple.
[0139] As set forth in the foregoing, the smart wearable breast pumping machine according to the present invention has the integral type structure in which the breast pump is built and also has the separate type structure in which the breast pump is not built therein and is provided as the separate type breast pumping device, thereby making breast pumping environments corresponding to a variety of needs of the user.
