Abstract

A body support apron includes a sheet (2) of flexible material incorporating spring elements (12, 13) which permit upper and lower portions of the sheet to flex towards an angular position whilst acting to return the said portions towards a generally straight configuration. The spring elements have straight end sections (15, 16) which are interconnected by a resilient coil spring (14), with hooked ends (20 and 21). Each spring element (12, 13) is covered by a layer of padding (17) and is received in a sleeve (7, 8). A waist band (6) is secured to the middle of the sheet, with two sections 6.1 and 6.2 extending from the opposite margins of the sheet adjacent to the spring (14).
