1 Claim. 1
This invention relates to improvements in infants bands such as are placed around an infant to protect its abdomen and particularly the area of its navel.
The principal object of the present invention is to provide such a band which can be more readily applied to the infants body than bands of present construction.
Another object of the invention is to provide an infants band which will take in more surface of the infants body to the end that more protection is afforded.
Still another object of the invention is to provide an infants band, which when once applied will remain definitely in position against slippage with possible chafing of the infants skin A further object of the invention is to provide a band of the character stated which is of simple construction, yet durable and positive acting in use.
These and various other objects and advantages of the invention will become apparent to the reader of the following description.
In the drawings:
Figure 1 is a front elevational view of the band in applied position.
Figure 2 is a rear elevational view.
Figure 3 is a section taken substantially on line 33 of Figure 1.
Figure 4 is a vertical sectional view taken substantially on line 4--4 of Figure 1.
Figure 5 is a plan view of the band laid open.
Figure 6 is a fragmentary detailed sectional view taken substantially on line 6-6 of Figure 5.
Figure 7 is a perspective view of the band shown applied to an infant.
Referring to the drawings wherein like numerals designate like parts, it can be seen, that the band is formed from an elongated sheet 5 of arcuate form and this is preferably soft cotton knit jersey. The sheet 5 is of arcuate shape so as to more readily conform with the shape of the infants body, the upper longer edge taking in the larger portion of the infant under his arms, while the lower or short edge goes around the lower portion of the abdomen of the infant.
Applied to the intermediate portion of the sheet 5 are narrow tapes 6, I and 8 and near the ends of the sheet are sewed or otherwise secured somewhat wider tapes 9 and H], the tape I0 being located further inward of the adjacent end of the sheet to provide a relatively long flap II, when compared with the resultant flap [2 at the other end of the sheet. Disposed over these flaps ll, l2 are loops l3, which are sewed to the sheet 5 by the same stitching as is used in conjunction with the securing of the tapes 9, [0.
Tie members l4, [5 have their inner ends secured to the sheet 5 by the same stitching that secures the tapes 9, I 0 to the sheet 5.
Thus a structure such as is shown in Figure 5 k and as described above results.
The structure is placed under the infant and drawn across his front, with the flaps II, I2 disposed in overlapping relation. When the band is properly positioned, the tie members [4, I5 are then laced through the loops I3 as in the manner shown in Figure 1, the lacing being done to the tautness desired, then a bow-knot is tied at the top as shown in Figure 1.
Obviously this band can be easily removed from the infants body and replaced by another when it is desired that one be laundered.
Such a band as this gives ample protection and support to the new born infants navel against possible rupture. It conforms to the infants shape and stays in its proper place on the body. The article is easily laundered after being unlaced and removed from the babys body.
A structure as described can be used on an infant of any size.
While the foregoing description sets forth the invention in specific terms, it is to be understood that numerous changes in the shape, size and materials may be resorted to without departing from the spirit and scope of the invention as claimed hereinafter.
Having described the invention what is claimed as new is:
A device of the character described comprising an elongated sheet having substantially parallel arcuate longitudinal edges, a pair of tapes sewed to one face of said sheet inwardly of the ends thereof and radially interconnecting said upper and lower arcuate edges, a plurality of loops sewed to each of said tapes in longitudinally spaced relation and each loop on one tape adapted to correspond with a loop upon the other tape, and a pair of tie memberseach secured at one of its ends to one end portion of one of said tapes and each adapted to be laced through said loops.
