LEG MARKING DEVICE Filed Feb. 26, 1 943 74 7,; 1% m i i E v VINVENTOR. .Zzzya/zzk Mr/zzma BY W Patented Feb. 27, 1 945 was i LEG MARKING DEVICE Eugenie Marchado, New York, N. Y.
Application rebruaryas, 1943, Serial No. 477,211 2 Claims. (01. 41- -17) This invention relates to leg marking devices.
The object of this invention is to provide a simple device which may be readily applied and removed after the markings have been made.
The invention consists of leg marking device having a spaced air of hems enclosing a strip with transferable color thereon, with means of attaching it to the rear of the leg and, if desired,
Fig. 6 shows the manner of applying an embodiment of my invention.
Similar characters of reference indicate crrespending parts throughout the various views.
Referring to the drawing, and more particularly to Figures 1, 2 and 3, a strip ll! of cloth suitable to hold a dye of mordant colors or color mixture and impregnated therewith extends from end to end of the device.
At each lateral edge of this strip Ill, hems It and I2 are sewed, stitched or otherwise attached to the strip H) with the edgesof the inwardly extending walls of the hems providing a narrow space between the inner edges l3 ofthehems. The stitching is shown by I4. The length of the insert [0 and spaced hems l I and I2 is about the length from the rear of the hems to the rear of the article. The longitudinal ends of the device are closed by stitching or the like as shown by I5, to prevent the unraveling of the textile materials used.
To each end, strips l6 and I! ar suitably attached in order to tie the improved device to the limb to be marked, and hold the device in position thereon while the marking takes place. Then a sharp instrument, such as a pencil, crayon or the like is pressed over the strip, and either the dye in the strip is transferred to the skin, or if the strip is not dyed, the crayon articles pass through the interstices of the strip and are transferred to the skin.
In Figures 4 and 5, the strip is widened at its lower part, as shown, to represent the convenistics of hosiery by pressure applied by means of a pencil, crayon, or the like. If the insert is not provided with a. dye, a suitable crayon may be pressed on the insert and thereby the particles of the crayon pressed through the interstices of the insert. The hems extending along the edges of this widened portion act as guides for the pencil to indicate the outline of the widened space, which is then filled in by pressure applied to the widened insert over its entire surface, so as to transfer the color to the skin and form a similitude to the conventional heel portion of the hosiery.
No liquid paint is used, and by the device described, a clean transference takes place, and the device may be used many times over.
The insert is made preferably ofsome suitable textile material which will hold a transferable dye or the like, and which has been previpencil like tool to pass therebetween and to be guided thereby. Preferably, I have found the use of leather or leather imitation to be more durable and neater, and the use of the same provides portion of the limb to simulate the characterto relatively rigid edges for forming a guideway for the pencil like tool. The marking on the skin i clear and distinct and does'not run, and while it may be washed off, is relatively permanent.
From the foregoing it is believed that the construction, operation and advantages of my invention may be readily understood by those skilled in the art without further description, it being borne in mind that numerous changes may be made in the details disclosed without departing from the spirit of the invention as set out in the following claims.
What I claim is:
l. A re-use device for marking legs, comprising a strip of cloth about the length of a leg and having interstices for transferable colors, layers superposed on said strip and extending substantially the length of the strip and laterally spaced from each other to enable their opposed parallel edges to form an uncovered elongated space exposing the cloth strip substantially the width of the configuration of the marking desired to be made on the leg, and fastening straps at each end of the cloth strip adapted to extend around the leg to be marked and hold the device in position thereon while the marking takes place by pressure applied to the exposed part of the cloth strip.
extend around the leg to be marked and hold the device in position thereon while the marking takes place by pressure applied to the exposed part of the cloth strip, and said layers having their edges spaced a greater distance apart than when forming the first exposed space, to .form at: one end of the devices an enlarged exposed space in similitude to the conventional heel inserts of hosiery.
