Abstract
A short camisole similar to the textile item of clothing worn by persons interned in clinics, hospitals and sanatoriums, comprising a spacious cover envelope having a back or dorsal part (1) and a front part (2), the camisole being open at its sides or at the front part and sleeveless, preferably with tying strips that stretch out at the waist area. Thicker soft parts (3) and (4) coincide with the neck upper edge and the dorsal central part, the thicker soft parts being shaped by the respective cushions (5) and (6) housed in the corresponding cover cases (7) and (8) which are bound to the body of the short camisole by seams.
Description
- The present invention mainly relates to a short camisole with a lumbar cushion and a cervical cushion, especially designed and conceived to be worn by patients confined in hospitals, clinics and sanatoriums.
- More precisely, the present invention relates to a short textile camisole as worn by people confined in the above referred hospitals, comprising a spacious cover envelope with lateral or front opening and being sleeveless, preferably with tying strips stretching out at the waist area.
- These short camisoles should be very light, made of soft and light fabric, capable of fitting persons of different sizes and particularly simple to be handled by nurses and physicians as to easily access patients for their treatment.
- Furthermore, these short camisoles are usually made of fabric capable of supporting multiple washings and disinfections, and therefore they should be preferably of simple construction.
- In this sense, it may be stated that the prior art shows two types of short camisoles, both based on the same wearing and operating principle, which may be observed in most patients interned in sanatoriums and hospitals.
- Both short camisole models comprise a front and a dorsal part that, in one of the cases, stretches out from the line of the shoulders of the person wearing it, keeping separated by the sides. In this case, an upper neck opening preferably shaped in the front part is included and complemented with tying strips that stretch out from the intermediate points of its vertical side borders.
- In other cases, both parts, the front and the dorsal parts, are included, keeping bound by their sides, shaping broad sleeveless upper side openings to let the patient's arms pass through, being characterized by the front part being centrally open in such a way that on being arranged so as to close the item of clothing, two lateral parts partially overlapped are shaped. In the waist area, tying strips are also included in order to stabilize the closing position
- It is worth noting that all these textile pieces of clothing have been designed and conceived taking into account the uses, needs and requirements to be met in sanatoriums and hospitals, in all cases aimed at treatments that patients must undergo and considering that, in many cases, patients must be monitored or assisted by means of apparatus and devices that should possibly be in contact and even enter the patient's body without the short camisole being an obstacle or hinder whatsoever.
- Likewise, the design of these pieces of clothing for hospitalized people also contemplates those cases in which patients are prostrated and must therefore be regularly washed with the assistance of other persons, as they cannot move by themselves. In such a case, the nurse, when operating, shall be capable of moving the piece of clothing partially, with no need to remove it from the patient, thus easily washing him/her.
- Nevertheless, no camisoles or short camisoles to be worn in hospitals and sanatoriums contemplating the needs inherent to each patient so as to improve his/her comfort, or at least, relieve his/her pain during their stay, are known to present.
- In that sense, it is worth noting the muscle pain problem often suffered when a patient remains immobilized for a long time, either lying on bed or seated.
- Nurses may relieve them by means of some massage or by changing patients from one position to another, but not always do they have enough time or is a long relief is attained.
- The short camisole according to the present invention that is to be worn in hospitals and sanatoriums differs from all short camisoles of the same type known to date by having a first soft cushion at its upper central part, combined with a second cushion arranged at a central inner zone of the dorsal part.
- In this way, a patient will count on a soft cervical cushion to support his/her head, allowing in this way for a more natural and relieving position, particularly when they should stay immobilized for many hours.
- The same relieving function is obtained by means of the central cushion arranged at the patient's lumbar area, in such a way that it allows for a natural position to be adopted while being relaxed.
- Preferably, both cushions are arranged as to be housed in their respective textile pockets or cover cases that are sewed to the body of the short camisole at mounting places, in such a way that both cushions may be removed when the short camisole is sent to the laundry for washing and disinfection.
- In connection with the above description, it may be stated that it is a new arrangement of objects already known, aimed at getting a better use of the function for which they are intended.
- In order to specifically state the set of advantages thus summarily mentioned, to which the persons who are to wear the piece of clothing referred to herein, as well as those experts in the art may add many others, and in order to make easier the understanding of the tailoring, constituent and functional characteristics of the inventive textile short camisole, there follows a preferred construction example. The example is illustrated in the drawings by figures that are not to scale, the example being given only for illustrative purposes, intended just to explain and illustrate the basis on which the present invention is conceived. It will be apparent to those skilled in the art and it is contemplated that variations and/or changes in the embodiments illustrated and described herein may be made without departure from the present invention. Accordingly, it is intended that the accompanying description is illustrative only, not limiting, and that the true spirit and scope of the present invention will be determined by the appended claims.

FIG. 4 is a perspective view of the same short camisole as the one described inFIG. 2 , in this case having its front part slightly open so that its dorsal part inner face may be observed. -
FIG. 5 is a perspective view of the same short camisole as the one described inFIG. 4 , in this case showing a constructive detail shaped on the textile cover cases or envelopes sewed to the body of the camisole at the mounting zone. - It should be clearly stated that in all figures, the numbers and letters used for reference purposes correspond the same or equivalent parts or elements making up the set, pursuant to the example chosen to explain the inventive novel textile short camisole.
- As is shown in the figures described above, the textile camisole referred to herein belongs to the type having one textile light piece of clothing comprising a front part (1) and a dorsal part (2), and at the neck upper border line, in its middle part, a thicker part (3) that shapes a soft tender area, having certain flexibility.
- The shaping condition described above, is combined with the presence of a second thicker part (4) that, in this case, is shaped in the inner face of the dorsal part (2) of the short camisole.
- When
FIG. 3 is specifically observed, it may be noted that both the upper soft part (3) and the lower soft part (4) are shaped by means of the respective cushions (5) and (6) housed in the inner part of a cover case (7) and (8). - It may be clearly concluded that it is the presence of said cushions that confers the thicker and softer shaping features to the above-mentioned neck and waist parts.
- In both cases the housing cover cases (7) and (8) referred to above stay bound to the body of the short camisole by means of the respective seams (9) and (10), both of them shaping the corresponding openings (11) and (12) provided to remove the cushion when the item of clothing must be sent to the laundry, allowing in this way for the item of clothing to be perfectly accepted for use in the conventional washing and ironing machines located in health institutions.
