Abstract

The MoBib is unlike an adult or babies apron/bib and has been invented to address the needs of all individuals who desire a covering to protect themselves while in motion, in a vehicle, or sedentary.

Description

This invention relates to clothing covers under Class D02 Apparel and Haberdashery, specifically an instrument used when consuming food or beverage; for working on any kind of project or activity when there might be the chance of dumping, spilling, or splattering a substance on a person or a person's clothing. A unique covering such as the MoBib, is used for a safeguard, providing the user with adequate protection by keeping ones person from damage to the clothing. The MoBib is unlike a babies bib and has been invented to address the needs of all individuals who desire a covering to protect themselves while in motion, in a vehicle, or sedentary.
One method people use when trying to keep clean is to stuff napkins or other types of fabric inside the shirt or blouse collar and other places on the body to accomplish the same outcome; to keep a barrier between the clothing or body and the substance they are consuming or working on. Napkins and cloths stuffed into different parts of a person's clothing to stay clean is an inefficient and ineffective way to address this problem. When the napkins are applied, it's hard to adjust them once you start doing what you set out to do, such as eat, or drink; drive while eating or drinking; work on a project, craft project, or other activity. An apron like one used for cooking doesn't solve this problem either because they are cumbersome to put on while in a tight space like a vehicle. Aprons are also hard to adjust, if need arises while sitting down. The MoBib allows the user to put the covering on with a simple strap attachment that goes around the back of the neck, or with a clothing magnet, or clip positioned on the top and bottom of the MoBib, or underneath the upper portion of the MoBib, with a sticky attachment.
The MoBib can be produced by using a variety of hand or commercial cutting implements, laser cutters, die cutting machines, fabric cutting machines, textile cutting machines, roll laser cutting machines, to name a few.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

This invention relates to clothing covers under Class D02 Apparel and Haberdashery, specifically an instrument used when consuming food or beverage; for working on any kind of project or activity when there might be the chance of dumping, spilling, or splattering a substance on a person or a person's clothing. A unique covering such as the MoBib, is used for a safeguard, providing the user with adequate protection by keeping ones person from damage to the clothing. The MoBib is unlike a babies bib and has been invented to address the needs of all individuals who desire a covering to protect themselves while in motion, in a vehicle, or sedentary.
One method people use when trying to keep clean is to stuff napkins or other types of fabric inside the shirt or blouse collar and other places on the body to accomplish the same outcome; to keep a barrier between the clothing or body and the substance they are consuming or working on. Napkins and cloths stuffed into different parts of a person's clothing to stay clean is an inefficient and ineffective way to address this problem. When the napkins are applied, it's hard to adjust them once you start doing what you set out to do, such as eat, or drink; drive while eating or drinking; work on a project, craft project, or other activity. An apron like one used for cooking doesn't solve this problem either because they are cumbersome to put on while in a tight space like a vehicle. Aprons are also hard to adjust, if need arises while sitting down. The MoBib allows the user to put the covering on with a simple strap attachment that goes around the back of the neck, or with a clothing magnet, or clip positioned on the top and bottom of the MoBib, or underneath the upper portion of the MoBib, with a sticky attachment.
The MoBib can be produced by using a variety of hand or commercial cutting implements, laser cutters, die cutting machines, fabric cutting machines, textile cutting machines, roll laser cutting machines, to name a few.
