Description
TITLE OF THE INVENTION:
Coverall Garment NAMES) OF INVENTOR(S):
Dorothy June Miller FIELD OF THE INVENTION
The present invention relates to a coverall garment, also known as coveralls.
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
A coverall, also referred to as coveralls, is a full length protective outer garment. A workwear version of coverall is commonly used by workmen to protect their clothing from becoming soiled. A winterwear version of coverall is commonly used for winter activities such as skating, skiing and snowmobiling.
A coverall has a torso engaging portion, a pair of depending cylindrical pant legs, a pair of arm openings and an opening in the torso engaging portion which permits access to the pant legs and arm openings. In order to put on a coverall, one must first insert one's legs into the pant legs and then insert one's arms into the arm openings. The order cannot be reversed. Once the coverall is positioned on one's body the opening in the torso engaging portion is closed with fasteners .
There are a variety of fasteners which are used, such as snaps, buttons, or zippers.
Whether used for workwear or winterwear, coveralls have some minor problems associated with them. When used as workwear, the workman must take off his shoes to put on the coveralls. This creates a problem when there is no clean surface upon which to stand while putting the coveralls on.
When used as winterwear, the wearer must remove the arms from the arm openings in order to be able to lower the bottom half of the coveralls. This creates a problem when the wearer is faced with an unavoidable need to defecate outdoors.
SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION
What is required is an alternative configuration of coveralls.
According to the present invention there is provided a coverall garment which includes a fabric body having a torso engaging portion and a skirt portion that depends from the torso engaging portion. The skirt portion is divided into a first leg engaging portion, a second leg engaging portion and a crotch covering portion positioned between the first leg engaging portion and the second leg engaging portion. The first leg engaging portion has a remote edge, an outside edge and an inside edge. The second leg engaging portion having a remote edge, an outside edge and an inside edge. The crotch portion has a remote edge, a first side edge and a second side edge . When the crotch covering portion is in a crotch covering position, the first side edge of the crotch covering portion is an extension of the inside edge of the first leg engaging portion and the second side edge of the crotch covering portion is an extension of the inside edge of the second leg engaging portion. A first fastener is positioned along the outside edge of the first leg engaging portion. A second fastener is positioned along the inside edge of the first leg engaging portion and the first side edge of the crotch covering portion.
The second fastener engages the first fastener thereby securing the first leg engaging portion to a leg. A third fastener is positioned along the outside edge of the second leg engaging portion. A fourth fastener is positioned along the inside edge of the second leg engaging portion and the second side edge of the crotch covering portion. The fourth fastener engages the third fastener thereby securing the second leg engaging portion to a leg.
The coverall garment, as described above, is placed on the body with the skirt portion suspended from the torso engaging portion. The wearer covers his or her legs by wrapping the leg portions around the legs and engaging the fasteners. This enables the coverall garment to be put on without one having to remove one's footwear. It also enables the lower portion of ones body to be exposed for the purpose of defecating without having to remove the torso engaging portion of the coverall garment.
