1 Claim. (01. 917) This invention relates to aquatic or water acand comprises a solid sponge-rubber ball 11 covcessories and appliances and has more specific ered by a coat of paint, varnish, or the like 12 to reference to such devices as are referred toas render it substantially water-proof while not defloats, swimming wings, life preservers, and the tracting from its compressible resilient and buoylike. ant properties. As hereinafter clarified, the structure relied Surrounding the waterproofing coat is a canupon as constituting the novelty of the present vas casing or enclosure 13, this being provided invention is used more particularly as a swimas a protective element and. to permit it to be ming aid expressly designed for use by persons stitched or otherwise conveniently secured as inlearning to swim and highly desirable for eflicient dicated at 14 to the adjacent portion of the belt. use in this particular capacity. An appliance constructed in accordance with I am aware of the fact that the field of in the principles of the present invention is unusuvention to which the present improvements really simple and economical, easy to apply, and late is already well-developed and characterized satisfactory in use. It is decidedly helpful as by comparatively similar structures. Therefore, an important aid to beginners learning to swim. it is my primary aim to generally improve upon It is a safety appliance not only as a swimmers these known prior art devices by providing an aid, but may be used as a life preserver if so dearrangement characterized by unusual simplicity sired. Its particular distinction is in the proviand economy and especially suitable in fulfilling sion of the enclosed painted solid sponge-rubber 20 the requirements of an invention of this classiballs which possess the desired buoyancy or floatfication. ing properties and at the same time are pro- Other features and advantages will become tected against being punctured. This is a notemore readily apparent from the following descripworthy advantage over pneumatic or air inflated tion and drawings. cushions and floats.
In the drawings: The gist of the invention is in the provision of Figure 1 is an elevational view of the invention an adjustable body encircling band or belt prefshowing the manner in which it is used. erably of canvas, together with the canvas cas- Figure 2 is an enlarged elevational view of the ings containing the coated solid rubber balls proinvention per se. viding the inexpensive and dependable floats.

It is to be understood that minor changes in Figure 6 is simply a detail of the adjusting shape, size, relative proportions, and materials means for the body encircling belt. may be resorted to in practice without departing Referring now to the distinguishing reference from the spirit of the invention or the scope of 40 characters in the various figures of the drawings, the invention as now claimed.
it will be seen that the body encircling belt is I claim: generally differentiated by the numeral '7. This A bathers safety appliance of the class deis of any appropriate material and proportions scribed comprising a sponge-rubber ball, a coatand is preferably made of strong canvas or equiving of Water-proof material completely surfacing 5 alent material. It is preferably made up of comsaid ball, a canvas covering containing said ball lOO panion sections adjustably joined together at the and providing a cas'ng therefor, and a body atback by an appropriate slide fastener 8 and also taching belt stitched to said canvas covering. adjustably connected together at their free end ABRAHAM LAZAR. portions by a buckle fastener 9.
The buoyant floats are differentiated by the numerals l0 and it is in these particular details that the principal novelty resides. There are two of the floats and they are attached to diametrically opposed portions of the belt. As shown in 5 Figure 4, each float is of ball-like configuration
