PLASTER BELT Filed Jan. 3. 1930 swam/whoa P S. c Quirk I 9 I I $13M (Idiot/M8410 v strips 10 together,
Patented July 21, 1931 UNITED STATES PHIL S. MCQUIRK, OF AUDUBON, IOWA PLASTEB BELT Application filed January 3, 1930. Serial No. 418,320.
The invention aims to provide a novel belt having an adhesive coated central portion (either medicated or non-medicated), striplike end portions adapted for passage around a part of the body and for connection with each other to assist in affixing the adhesive, and a covering of crinoline over said adhesive portion, adapted to be stripped therefrom when the belt is to be applied.
The device may be effectively used as a support for portions of the back, as a support for fractured ribs, in the treatment of pleurisy, as a surgical bandage, etc.
Figure 1 of the accompanying drawings is an elevation of a belt constructed in accord ance with my invention.
Figure 2 is an enlarged fragmentary perspective view.
Figure 3 is an enlarged horizontal sectional View on line 3--3 of Fig. 1.
The numeral 5 on the drawings denotes a sheet of fabric of the same nature as that commonly used in the construction of medicated adhesive tape or sheet adhesive. The sheet 5 may be of any desired configuration, but is here shown as of substantially diamond-shape, its reduced ends being denoted at 6 for future reference. One side of the sheet 5 is coated throughout its entire area with an adhesive 7 which may either be medicated or non-medicated as desired. Over this adhesive coating 7, is a protecting covering 8 of crinoline or equivalent material having reduced ends 9. These ends 9 are stripped from the adhesive on the reduced sheet ends 6, and the inner ends of two relatively long and narrow fabric strips 10, are secured against said adhesive of the sheet ends 3, by stitching 11. The adhesive and the stitching tenaciously secure the sheet 5 and the but the reduced ends 9 of the covering 8 are left entirely free from the strips 10, so that either one of them may be readily grasped when the covering 8 is to be' removed from the sheet 5, prior to application of the adhesive to an affected part. After so applying the adhesive, the I strips 10 are passed around a portion of the body and are either pinned together or connected by some other appropriate means such as a buckle.
Hence, these strips materially aid in afliX- ing the adhesive-coated sheet 5 and in forming an effective support for the part of the body to which said sheet is applied. I have found that usually, better results are obtained, when the strips 10 decline slightly to the sheet 5.
By providing the novel construction shown and described, a device is provided which may be easily and inexpensively manufactured and hence may be sold at small cost, yet it will be very desirable and efiicientfor a number of purposes, such as those hereinbefore enumerated. By constructing the device in the specific way shown, sheet ad'- hesive, with the adhesive coating covered in the usual way with crinoline, may be purchased and cut into desired sizes and shapes, portions of the crinoline covering being stripped back when the strips 10 are applied, allowing the adhesive thus exposed to initially secure the strips and the sheet 5 together, thereby aiding in forming the lines of stitching 11. Moreover, the adhesive and the stitching co-act in tenaciously securing the strips and the adhesive-coated sheet together. Then too, this construction possesses a further advantage of providing the free tabs or the like for use when removing the covering 8.
In the construction shown, each fabric strip 10 is provided with a thin binding 12, but this refinement may be omitted if desired. Moreover, other minor variations may be made within the scope of the invention as claimed.
I claim A plaster belt comprising a sheet of adhesive coated fabric having opposite tapered ends, fabric attaching strips secured to the adhesive at said ends and stitched to the sheet, whereby they are held both by the adhesive and the stitches, and cover enough of the adhesive so that a portion of said ends -will never stick to the body of the wearer,
a protective covering of crinoline or the like for said adhesive conforming to the outline of said sheet and overlying the stitching ends of the strips to leave loose parts which cover said stitching ends during packing and transportation and are accessible for convenient removal of the covering.
In testimony whereof I have hereunto affixed my signature.
PHIL S. MQQUIRK.
