DRAWERS HAVING A PROTECTIVE COVERING OVER THE RECTAL AREA THEREOF Filed 061',- 17, 1956 IN V EN TQR.
fiamael Spare BY ATTORN EY United tates DRAWERS HAVING A PROTECTIVE COVERING OVER THE RECTAL AREA THEREOF This invention relates to underwear, and more particularly to drawers or shorts, and the main object is the provision of an easily removable or piece of fabric, paper or the like possessing an absorbent quality, on that portion or area of the garment which comes into contact with the rectal area of the wearer, together with novel and practical means for holding the sheet in position and yet permitting easy removal and replacement thereof.
The above broad as well as additional and more specific objects will be clarified in the following description wherein reference numerals refer to like-numbered parts in the accompanying drawing. It is to be noted that the drawing is intended solely for the purpose of illustration and that it is therefore neither desired nor intended to limit the invention necessarily to any or all of the specific details of construction shown except insofar as they may be deemed essential to the invention.
Referring briefly to the drawing, Fig. 1 is a perspective view, with parts broken away, of a pair of drawers with the present invention applied thereto.
Fig. 2 is a sectional view taken on the line 22 of Fig. 1.
Fig. 3 is a view of the insert or sheet, adapted to be secured in the drawers, per se.
Fig. 4 is a sectional view taken on the line 44 of Fig. 1.
Referring in detail to the drawing, the numeral indicates a pair of drawers having the back portion 11 and the legs 12, the forward end or portion of the crotch being shown at 13, and it is generally within an area between the back 11 and the rearward portion of the crotch that the rectal area of the wearer comes into contact.
Frequently the rectal area becomes soiled quickly, thus necessitating a quick change of drawers. To avoid this necessity, a removable covering over the seat area of the drawers is provided, so that this covering will protect the drawers from becoming soiled and it may be readily and as frequently as necessary changed without requiring a change of drawers.
The covering or sheet is indicated at 14. Snap button engaging means, not shown, might be provided to retain the sheet in place in the drawers, but they would be objectionable in that they would provide hard protuberances against portions of the body or legs of the wearer with consequent discomfort.
A means for securing the sheet in place in the drawers is herein presented, which overcomes the objectionable features of buttons and eliminates consequent discomfort to the wearer.
The sheet 14 is preferably square or rectangular in outline, but of course this outline may be modified. At a sufiicient number of spaced positions inside the drawers, as herein illustrated at what may be termed the four corners of a rectangular or square area of the drawers within which the area of rectal contact lies, a band or tape 15 is provided with the ends of the band stitched to the fabric of the drawers, thus providing a space in the form of a slot 16 between the band and the said fabric. These bands are so positioned with respect to each other, and are further positioned tilted at a sulficient angle with respect to imaginary lines bisecting the corners of the sheet, that the corners of the sheet may be passed through the slots 16 and be adapted to be doubled back over the bands 15, as illustrated in Fig. 1. In the case of some types of absorbent paper, this would be sufiicient to retain the sheet in place. Of course an absorbent paper is preferable to a textile material for the sheet, for then it would be readily and inxpensively disposable.
As a means of further assuring the retention of a paper sheet in the manner illustrated in Fig. 1, the extremities of the corners of the sheet 14 may be provided with a coating of adhesive material as shown at 17. Then, upon doubling back of the corners as shown, the tips of the corners may be made to adhere to the adjacent areas of the sheet 14.
An important feature of a covering such as presented herein is the requirement that it avoid discomfort to the wearer, and the means herein illustrated and described for securing the sheet in place attain this end.
Obviously, modifications in the form or structure may be made without departing from the spirit or scope of the invention.
I claim:
An improvement in drawers comprising a plurality of bands of fabric secured to the drawers in spaced relationship around the area of the drawers with which the rectal area of the wearer comes into contact, each of said bands having the ends thereof stitched to the fabric of the drawers thereby providing a slot between the band and said fabric, each two mutually adjacent bands of said bands being positioned at an acute angle to each other, and a sheet of absorbent material having an out line providing a plurality of corners equal to the number of said bands positioned inside the drawers and covering said first-named area, said corners registering in and extending through said slots, said corners being doubled back over said bands, said doubled back corners having the extremities thereof extending inward toward the center of the sheet beyond the boundaries of said bands, each of said extremities having an adhesive material thereon binding said extremities to the portion of the sheet adjacent the bands.
