Abstract
The scarfguard system includes a scarf made from cotton, wool, silk, cashmere or other suitable materials. The device has a pocket or a sleeve sewn into the center wherein users may insert a disposable facemask or filter providing immediate, convenient and discreet protection from germs. An envelope-like flap is tucked into the pocket to keep the mask dry and in place. There is a plastic mesh strip sewn into both sides of the pocket for stability. Each end of the scarf has a pocket made of nylon, rubber, or other materials similar to those used in rainwear for inserting the hands. This grants users a protective covering for their hands that can be easily washed and sanitized for continued use. The scarf measure approximately 98″, but is also be available in several lengths, widths and colors to suit user preferences.
Description
- The present application is related to and claims priority from prior provisional application Ser. No. 61/285,567, filed Dec. 11, 2009 which application is incorporated herein by reference.
- A portion of the disclosure of this patent document contains material which is subject to copyright protection. The copyright owner has no objection to the facsimile reproduction by anyone of the patent document or the patent disclosure, as it appears in the Patent and Trademark Office patent file or records, but otherwise reserves all copyright rights whatsoever. 37 CFR 1.71(d).
- 1. Field of the Invention
- The present invention relates generally to the field of face-masks and more specifically relates to a scarfguard that may be used for warmth and to protect the wearer against everyday germs and viruses in a chic and discreet manner.
- 2. Description of the Related Art
- Viruses, bacteria and other disease carrying pathogens can spread quickly through populated public areas such as universities, office buildings, stores and on various modes of public transportation. Although a significant number of consumers are concerned about their exposure to airborne and surface dwelling germs, few preventative measures are currently available. Consumers can wash their hands with anti-bacterial soap, but most people would prefer not to touch surfaces that may be contaminated such as grocery carts, door handles, and gas station pumps. Surgical masks and other filters can be worn over the nose and mouth to prevent the spread of airborne pathogens, but these tend to be uncomfortable and draw unwanted attention to the wearer. A more discreet option is needed for keeping consumers healthy, germ free and suitably protected from environmental conditions.
- Various attempts have been made to solve the above-mentioned problems such as those found in U.S. Pat. Nos. 5,214,804, 7,152,252, 4,641,379, 5,033,115, 5,794,276, D369,442. This prior art is representative of facial protectors. None of the above inventions and patents, taken either singly or in combination, is seen to describe the invention as claimed.
- Ideally, a scarfguard device for protecting users from environmental conditions should be chic and user-friendly and, yet operate reliably and be manufactured at a modest expense. Thus, a need exists for a reliable scarfguard system to provide warmth to a wearer and to protect the wearer against everyday germs and viruses in a chic and discreet manner and to avoid the above-mentioned problems.
- In view of the foregoing disadvantages inherent in the known face-mask art, the present invention provides a novel Scarfguard system. The general purpose of the present invention, which will be described subsequently in greater detail is to provide warmth and to protect the wearer against everyday germs and viruses in a chic and discreet manner.
- Scarfguard may be used for warmth and to protect the wearer against everyday germs and viruses in a chic and discreet manner. The scarf has a pocket for the insertion of a disposable facemask that filters out airborne pathogens such as the flu virus. Each end of the scarf has a pocket allowing the user to slide their hands inside before turning a doorknob, pushing an elevator button, or touching other surfaces in public areas that may be contaminated. This product can be worn inside and out allowing consumers to be proactive and protect themselves from germs in a discreet and fashionable way. College students, people who commute on public transportation, and any other health conscious individual can wear this item to protect themselves from germs as often as they feel it's needed. People that have asthma, emphysema, or those suffering from an autoimmune deficiency would especially benefit from this convenient item.
- A kit is also embodied herein for the scarfguard system comprising: at least one scarf garment; and at least one removable disposable protective mask insert.
- In accordance with the embodiments of the present invention a preferred method of use is disclosed herein comprising: inserting a removable disposable protective mask insert into a mask-pocket located integral with a scarf garment; donning and wrapping the scarf garment around a face and/or neck of a wearer for protection from cold weather and airborne particles and pathogens; removing the scarf garment; and disposing of the used removable disposable protective mask insert and replacing with a new removable disposable protective mask insert for a next in-use wear-period.
- The present invention holds significant improvements and serves as a Scarfguard system. For purposes of summarizing the invention, certain aspects, advantages, and novel features of the invention have been described herein. It is to be understood that not necessarily all such advantages may be achieved in accordance with any one particular embodiment of the invention. Thus, the invention may be embodied or carried out in a manner that achieves or optimizes one advantage or group of advantages as taught herein without necessarily achieving other advantages as may be taught or suggested herein. The features of the invention which are believed to be novel are particularly pointed out and distinctly claimed in the concluding portion of the specification. These and other features, aspects, and advantages of the present invention will become better understood with reference to the following drawings and detailed description.
