a I 4 Claims, This inventionrelates toaidress shield'fl I It is an object of this'inventioni to-provide an improved arm pit dress shield whichis relatively simplean'd inexpensive in construction and eflicient in use. i
Another'objectof this invention is to providea dress shield which'is,'-relative jto otheridress shields heretofore known, so inei'cpen'sive to man-' ufacture and sell that the purchaser may wear;
' the new dress shield once and then dispose of the same." I 's A further object of the invention' is to provide adressshield which is made of material that is,
readily'disposable and which, as soon'as it becomes moist in use, coniormsmeriectly the body of the wearer and clingsthereto' so as to hold itself in position of use, thereby "eliminatx ,ing. the necessity for sewing the shield togthe.
dress as iscu stomary'with othertypes of dress shields heretofore used.
Another obje'ct' or the inventiontisf'to provide an improveddress shield for protecting; the ,gar-f ments or the wearer against; perspiration and which is so constructed that-itfis relatively less visible or conspicuous when in use thanthe dress shields heretofore used.
A further object of, the invention. .to provide afdress shieidhaving 'an improved con'struce tion'for absorbing perspiration'and for preventing the same from attacking the, garments of the wearer.
An additional objector theinvention is to e-,1 vide an improved dress shield vwhich is so constructed that it has a relatively 1arge-capaclty for absorbing perspiration but it -is at the same timerelatively less bulky than the dress shields heretofore used.
Still another object of the-invention is to pro.- vide-a dress shield which. is; treated 1with'a deodorant substance, such, for, example as amolin or boric acid, andwhich is so constructedthat it has a relatively large capacity tori-absorbingv and retaining such deodorant substance. a Other objectswill appearzhereinafteru The invention consists in the novel combination and arrangement of parts to behereinafter described and claimed.
The invention will be best understood by-reierence to the accompanying'drawin'g; showing the preferred form of construction and in which:
Fig. l is a perspective view illustrating a preferred form of" the new dress'shield inuse;
Fig. 2 is a-perspective view, partly in section, of a preferredform of the new dress shield showshown, and" when so used the perspiration d f'the wearer passes through theporous outside "walls I If IPI M "o J y 21, 1934, Serial No. 137, 11
same is composedqand'f d I V Fig. 3 is a sectional view on 'line 34mm; 2.
"A preferred form o! the new dress shield is. illustrated in "the drawing, is therein generally indicated, at in, and (consists; 'in general; jot'jtwo similar crescent-shaped members or units f l'l each member l8 consisting orb; series of superimposed crescent shaped layers '0! material: ll; to Hi inclusive; the two; members l8 being. joined" 10 together 'alongtheir upper and concave peripheral edg-e portions by folding the end portions of their; respective layers back upon themselves "and Join-"- ing them together, in anysuitable manner,' as 'by stitching i'l" (Fig 3')';--the members lBbein'gx'ror 1 mally'collapsed into" parallelism with each other ing the several constituent layersfof which the but being spreadable apart alon'g'their lower andf I convex peripheral ed'ges'wh'en in use.
ii of thetcorresponding rabri'cfcasingsi aiEach member i8 also-includes-a layer iii of relatively loose absorbent materiaLsuch, forexample, as cellulose or cellu-cotton, and" each memberv I8 also includesva sheet of transparent or trans lucent waxedpaper M which is' impenetrable to" or impervious -to perspiration. Likewise each-' member. 18 includes a sheet 'i 5 of substantially flesh-colored or pink absorbent tissue or crepe-1 paperand-each of thes esh'eets l5 isfarrangle'd between the sheet of waxed paper It and the; insi-dewa-lldfiof the corresponding fabric casin g The new dress or garment shield may be def-'5';- signed for use on'various parts of "the bodrbut is principally inte'nded for use in the arm pitsTas" ofithe fabriccasin'gs, which are arrangednext to the body of the wearenthroughlthe soft'crepeor tissue paper layers l1; andii's absorbed' by' the cellulose layers i 3,-' and'a'ssoon as the shield has absorbed sufficient perspiration to become moist it conforms to the curvature of the armpitand'the porous mesh fabric cas'ings' thereof 'adherelto' the body of thewearer'; thereby eliminating thenece's I 'sity for sewing the shield to the dress" 61 the 2 5 V -consisting of two spaced walls of'porous or mesh L20 with the shield for perspiration.
The perspiration absorbed by the absorbent cellulose layers l3 and the sheets I2 is prevented from coming into contact with the wearer's gar-, ment by the impervious and perspiration-resistant wax or paraffin-coated layers H, while the flesh-colored or pink cellulose sheets I5 serve to impart to the new dress shield a flesh color, thereby rendering the new dress shield less conspicuous in use than those heretofore used; the flesh color of the sheets '5 being visible through the inner walls l6 of the fabric casings when the members II are spread apart and the dress shield is in use. At the same time thefcolored crepe or tissue paper sheets l5 serve, as do the sheets l2, to increase the capacity of the new dress shield to absorbperspiration without adding bulk to the same; which has been an objectiveto the dress shields heretoforelused.
, The loose cellulose layers iii of the shield are treated, prior to use, with a deodorant substance,
such, for,example,as boric acid, amolin, etc., which counteracts the perspiration absorbed by these layers andrenders the-shield substantially odorless. 1 I 1 I The new shield, being-made of very inexpensive materials,,is inexpensiveto manufacture and sell and canbe sold for a small price so that the buyercan afford to wear the same once and then dispose oi it.,
:While I have illustrated and described the pre-,
ferred form of construction for carrying my invention into effect this is capable of variation and modification, without departing from the spirit ot the inventionr I, therefore, do not wish to be limited to the precised details of construction set forthpbut desire to avail myself of such variationsandmodifications as some within the scope I o f;the'appended claims. 9
Havingthus described my'invention what I claim as :new and desire .to iprotect by Letters Patent is: i
' .1 a new article of manufacture, an underarm dress shield comprising twomembers each havinga free edge and an edge secured to the *othenof said members; said members :being normally, collapsed into parallelism with each other but being spreadable apartalong their free edges when inuse; each of said members including a porousfabric outer casing havingarranged there- .in a layer of absorbent. cellulose treated with a dcodorantsubstance and a sheet of material impervious or resistant to perspiration; the said sheet in each of said members'being arranged between the said absorbent cellulose layer thereof and the other of said members so that when the dress shield is in use perspiration may readily passfthrough the porous fabric outer casings into theabsorbent cellulose layers so as to be absorbed by the latter and prevented from coming into contact with the garments ofthe wearer, while at the same time said'meinbe'rs will conform to the curvature of the armpit and cling to the body ofthe wearer assoon as they become moist from perspiration when in use, whereby the said dress shield when in use will support itself in position without external support.
2. As a new article of manufacture, an underarm dress shield-consisting of two crescent-shaped members joined together along their upper and concave peripheral edge portions and normally collapsed into parallelism with each other but spreadable apart along their lower and convex peripheral edge portions when in use; each of said members including a porous fabric casing having arranged therein a layer of material absorbent to perspiration and another layer of material impervious or resistant to perspiration; the latter layer in each of said members being arranged between the said absorbent layer thereof and the other of said members so as to prevent the perspiration absorbed by said absorbent layer from penetrating through the said fabric casings when the dress shield is in use; each of said casings having therein a layer of pink or substantially flesh-colored material arranged between the said layer of perspiration-resistant material and the inner wall of the corresponding fabric casingso that when the said members are spread apart along their lower and convex peripheral edge portions when in use a substantially flesh or pink color is imparted to the same and the dress shield thus rendered relatively inconspicuous, r
3. As a new article of manufacture, an underarm dress shield consisting of two crescentshaped, members joined together along their upper and concave peripheral edge portions and normally collapsed into parallelism with each other but spreadable apart along their lower and convex peripheral edge portions when in use; each of said members including a porous fabric casing having arranged therein a layer of relatively loose cellulose material absorbent to perspiration and another layer of material impervious to or resistant to perspiration; the latter layer in each of said members being arranged between the said absorbent layer thereof and the other of said members so as to prevent the perspiration absorbed by said absorbent layers from penetrating through the said fabric casings when the dress shield is in use; each of said casings having a sheet of relatively soft cellulose material arranged between said layer of absorbent cellulose and the outer wall of the corresponding fabric casing to prevent the said relatively loose cellulose from working out through the said fabric casings when the dress shield is in use and to increase the capacity of the same to absorb perspiration.
