SANITARY TOWEL.
I application Med December 5, 1927, Serial No. 237,908, and in Great Britain July 15, 1927.
This invention relates to improvements in and connected with sanitary towels, and applioable only to those made of cellulose.
In such sanitary towels at present in use,
5 the pad is wrapped in a casing of gauze or scrim with loose ends by which the towel is attached by a safety pin to the belt-,the result being that the gauze or scrim is not sufficiently strong to admit of this and it is 1 more difiicult to remove the cover when the towel has been used to drop it into the water in the pan of the water-closet and the object of this invention is to form the cover so as to dispense with the safety pins and admit of the pad being readily detached from the cover and dropped into the water in the pan of the water-closet and carried away, and resides in the provision of a loop at each end of the sanitary towel capable of being readily undone when desired, all as hereinafter described with reference to the drawings and pointed out in the claims.
In order that my invention may be properly understood and readily carried into effect, I have hereunto appended one sheet of drawings, of which Figure 1 is a plan of sanitary towel illustrating my invention.
Figure 2 is a side view of Figure 1.
According to this invention, and referring to the drawings, A is the loop formed at each end of the cover B of the pad D of the sanitary towel which is made of cellulose,
which not only strengthens the cover B but retains the paid D in the cover B and admits of the pad D being attached and with safety to the usual belt without the use of safety pins. A loop A is made by folding over the loose ends and stitching them to the body of the cover B with a large .machine stitch of preferably coloured and white threads C and C respectively, so that, after use, by simply pulling the long loose end C of the coloured thread O, the loop A is undone and the cover B is easily removed by which the pad D can be dropped into the water in the water-closet and, as stated, become broken up and readily carried away, the cover afterwards being dropped in the water.
1. A sanitary towel comprising an elongated absorbent pad of cotton, a casing of flimsy textile fabric folded longitudinally to envelop said pad, the ends of said casing being folded over transversely to form loops adapted to engage a tape or belt, and the bent over ends of said casing being connected to the main bod of said casing by a line of quickly remova 1e stitching having a free projecting end adapted to be pulled by the user.
2. A sanitary towel comprising an elongated absorbent pad of cotton, a casing of flimsy textile fabric folded longitudinally to envelop said pad, the ends of said casing being folded over transversely to form loops adapted to engage a tape or belt, and the bent over ends of said casing being'connected to the main body of said casing by a. line of quickly removable stitching of coarse thread of a different color from that of the casing, said stitching having a free projecting end adapted to be pulled by the user.
In witness whereof I afiix my signature.
NORA GARROW.
