SANITARY CUFF.
Specification of Letters Patent.
Application filed May 11, 1914. Serial No. 837,783.
To all whom it may concern 1 Be it known that I, HELEN VVALsH, a citizen of the United States, residing at Lake wood in the county ofGuyahoga and State of Ohio, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Sanitary Cuffs, of which the following is a specification.
This invention relates to sanitary cufls or sleeve protectors,and has for its object to provide an improved structure which can be made of paper or the like, cheap enough to be thrown away as soon asit becomes soiled.
An important object of the invention is to provide simple and improved means for holding the cuff in place without the use of independent fastening devices. Hitherto, an inconvenience in using such cuffs has existed owing to their tendency to slip off the sleeves of the wearer, unless pinned or otherwise fastened in place. By means of the present invention, this inconvenience is avoided, by providing the cuff with projections on the inner side thereof which will frictionally engage the sleeve and so hold thecuff in place.
The invention will be more fully understood from the following description and the accompanying drawings in which Figure 1 is a perspective view of the cuff in place. Fig. 2 is a side view partly in section. Fig. 3 is a detail in section showing the seam between the edges of the blank of which the cuff is formed. Fig. 4: is a plan of the blank.
Referring specifically to the drawings, 7 indicates the sleeve of the wearer, and 6 indicates the body of the blank. This blank is shown in plan in Fig. 4, and in the construction of the cuff the front end flap 8 is folded on the line 6*, at oneend, forming a fold 0r hem, with the turned edge at the front, on the line 6 The other end of the blank is folded on the line 6 to form the rear hem or fold, the side edges 12 and 13 being thus doubled for a part of their length. The blank is afterward bent to tubular form, or creased on theline 6 to bring the edges 12 and 13 together, and the folded edge 13 is then inserted within the fold or doubled part of the edge 12, to about the line 6 so that the edge 13 is located between the opposite folds or sides of the edge 12, as shown in Fig. 3, where it is cemented in place, forming a practically smooth seam by the lap of the edges on both the inside and outside, and by creasing the cuff on the line 6, which is opposite the line 6, the cuff may be flattened and so packed in small space.
To provide the desirable roughness or friction surface on the inside of the cufi", to rip the sleeve sufficiently to hold the on in place, the cuff is provided with a series of perforations or scores on the lines 10 and 11. These may be conveniently made by the unthreaded needle of a sewing machine, which, where it penetrates the paper, will cause a plurality of broken edges or nibs to project on the inside of the cuff. This of course is done before the blank is turned to tubular form, so that the nibs will all project on the inside of the cuff. These nibs or projections, being irregular or ragged in outline, will, when the cuff is slipped over a sleeve, engage the fabric of the sleeve sufficiently to hold the cuff where it is put and prevent the same slipping off of the sleeve.
The cuff is preferably made of rather heavy paper, and can be produced so cheaply that it can be thrown away when soiled, with very little expense.
What I claim as new is 1. A paper cuff provided on its inner surface with a transverse row of nibs comprising inwardly projecting mutilated edges around a plurality of perforations.
2. A cuff provided on its inner surface with a plurality of nibs integral with the material of the cuff and projecting laterally from the surface thereof, and adapted to engage the surface of a sleeve on which the end is placed.
In testimony whereof, I affix my signature in presence of two witnesses.
