Description

CROSS-REFERENCE TO RELATED PRIOR APPLICATIONS

The present application claims priority to U.S. provisional patent application Ser. No. 63/100,995, filled on Apr. 13, 2020. The entire disclosure is included herein in its entirety at least by reference.

BACKGROUND OF INVENTION

1. Field of the Invention

The present invention is in the field of clothing and bibs that pertains particularly to the construction and the design of how an infant or toddler wear their bibs.

2. Discussion of the State of the Art

For years in the field of infant and toddlers clothing practically in how the traditional bib has been used to protect their clothing shown in U.S. Pat. No. 10,130,125 B2, U.S. Pat. No. 8,132,682 B1 and U.S. Pat. No. 6,182,290 B1 above prior art is used by pulling the bib down over a baby or patients head or adjusting the bib around the wearers neck. Therefore, the prior art of bibs or protective coverings do not provide an interchangeable bib that can be attached directly to the infant or toddler's bodysuit without going around the wearers neck.

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION

Even though the main purpose of wearing a bib is to protect the clothing some parents allow their infants or toddlers to wear the bib while sleeping or playing not just during feeding time. The present inventor realized while working in childcare and having kids of my own with allowing an infant or toddler to wear a bib while sleeping or playing is the bib can cover the infants or toddler's face while sleeping, or the bib can get twisted or pulled when around the neck of infant or toddler while playing or crawling. The present invention provides a solution to the above stated problem by securing the bib with snaps or any securing device of choice such as Velcro or buttons that fastens to the shoulders and waist of an infant or toddlers' bodysuit such as a onesie, shirt, or dress.
The inventor therefore constructed a bodysuit that provides an interchangeable double bib that attaches directly to the bodysuit of an infant or toddler's article of clothing that never go around the neck. The embodiment of the present invention may allow the parent or care giver to securely snap the bib to the bodysuit, and not have to worry if the bib is covering the infant or toddler's face while sleeping due to the bib being held in place by snaps or other securing devices not easily removed.
Another solution of the embodiment of the present invention helps with protecting the clothing from saliva and food stains. Most of us in our lifetime has had small children at home, and at some point, their teething. Teething can cause the infant or toddler to drool, and the saliva goes down the chin or cheek and unto the neck and wet the clothing particularly the chest area of the article of clothing. With the embodiment of the present invention the article of clothing is protected with an oversized bib that goes down from beneath the neck all the way down to the waist of the bodysuit covering the full portion of the chest and abdomen area of the infant or toddler onesie, shirt, or dress.
With the embodiment of the present invention a caregiver may never worry about a messy outfit again! The parent or caregiver can securely snap the bib on for teething or feeding, and once done throw the bib in the washer, and when it is time for the next meal, or if the current bib is to wet or messy with saliva or food just detach the current top bib and snap on the accompanying bib onto the outfit and repeat again and again. The convenience of the embodiment of the present invention can make cleaning up easy after meal time.
