ELBOW PAD I Fi 'led Sept. 10, l937 Virgin/'0 k238i ATTORNEY.
Patented Dec. 20, 1938 um'rso STATES PATENT OFFICE ELBOW PAD Virginia W. Rhorer, Des Moines, Iowa Application September 10,1937, SerialNo. 163,174 1 Claim. (C1. 246) I I V I The purpose of this invention is to provide a relatively small, thin, protecting pad, with means holding the pad over the elbow for holding softening products in contact with the skin, and 5 preventing said substances contacting clothing or bed clothing and the like. The invention is a relatively small, thin, pref- "erably elliptical-shaped pad, having elastics adjacent the ends adapted to fit over the arm above and below the elbow, and having a thin rubber or other material impervious tomoisture and grease. covering a'portion of the inner surface thereof.
Pads, of this type have been provided for applyingmedicines to different parts of the body, and these have been attached or held in place by varqious means, however, substantially any pad of this type is relatively stiff, and is provided with theintention of holding, reinforcing or supportg 20. ing ajoint or parts thereof; and, therefore, it
has been found desirable to provide a different type pad of relatively light materials and construction, which is used only to protect the surface from engagement with other surfaces for the purpose of holding the softening cream or medicament against the skin.
The object of this invention is, therefore, to v provide a relatively thin, light weight pad adapt- 7 ,ed to be positioned over the elbow, which is not .30 uncomfortable and which merely forms a cover.
Another object is to provide a pad of this type adapted to form a cover which may readily be applied and removed.
Another object is to provide a protective pad for the elbow or the like, inwhich the inner surface is impervious to moisture, grease, or the like. 7 Another object is to provide means for 'supporting a relatively thin pad forming a covering for the elbow, by which the pad may readily be removed and replaced, and which does not bind the muscles of the arm.
A further object is to provide means for supporting a relatively light weight protective pad over the elbow without interfering with the use of the arm.
And a still further object is to provide a relatively thin, light weight, protective pad for covering the elbow, which is comparatively simple and 50' inexpensive.
A 55 to the ends thereof.
Other features and advantages of the invention will appear from the following description, taken in connection with the drawing, wherein:
Figure 1 is a view showing the elbow pad as it would show in use.
Figure 2 is a plan view of the pad showing the elastic straps cemented directly to the inner surface of the pad.
Figure 3 is a view showing one end of the pad with the pad shown in section, and with part of the elastic band broken away, and also showing an alternate design in which adjusting means is provided in the band.
Figure 4 is an end view of the pad showing another alternate design in which the elastic bands are held in slits adjacent to ends of the pad.
Y Figure 5 is a view similar to that shown in Figure 3 showing the elastic band secured to the pad by snaps, rivets or other similar means.
Figure 6 is a view showing another alternate design, in which open bands with snaps are used.
Figure 7 shows another alternate arrangement, in which garter clasps are used for closing the bands.
In the drawing the pad. is shown as it may be made, wherein numeral 1 indicates the pad, numerals 2 and 3, elastic bands, and numeral 4, an inner thin rubber insert.
The elastic bands may be gummed to the pad I at the points 5 and 6 shown in Figure 2, or held by any suitable adhesive, and the liner 4 may also be gummed to the inner surface of the pad or held by any adhesive, or secured in place by any means.
The elastic bands may also be stitched to the pad as shown in Figure 3, in which the pad is indicated by the numeral 1, and the band, which is indicated by the numeral 8, extends under the pad and is held by stitches 9. In this design the band 8 is provided with a buckle ID by which the length thereof may be adjusted.
In Figure 4 the band I I passes through slits I2 and [3 in the pad l4, and in Figure 5 the band I5 is secured to the pad [6 by snaps or rivets H.
In the design shown in Figure 6, open bands i8 are used, and these may be fastened around the arm by snaps i9 and which may be placed under the pad 2|, or at any point or points, and
several of the male sections ZO-may be provided for adjusting the length thereof. Figure 7 shows a garter clasp hook 22 on one end of the band, and headed pins 23 on the other over which the clasps may hook. Any suitable fastening means may be used.
The pad I may be made of leather and rubber,
phane, or other material may be used.
It will be understood that changes may be made in the patent without departing from the spirit of the invention. One of which changes may be in the use of a pad of any other shape or design, another may be in the use of other means for holding the pad to the arm, as it will be understood that the elastic bands may be replaced by gum, tape, or may be made of any other material, and still another may be in the use of other means for securing the bands to the pad. 7
The construction will be readily understood from the foregoing description. In use the device may be provided as shown and described, and after cold cream or any other softening or healing substance is rubbed into the rough skin of the elbow, this pad may be placed over the elbow, to prevent the substance soiling the clothing, or to protect the bed clothing and the like. At the same time the substance will be held in close contact with the skin to facilitate softening or healing thereof. It will be understood that although this pad is described and illustrated as being particularly adaptable to the elbow it may be used for any other purpose. 7
Having thus fully described the invention, what I claim as new, and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is:
As an article of manufacture, an elbow skin softening pad of the type adapted to be placed lengthwise of the arm, and characterized by means holding one end over the forearm and the other around the upper arm; comprising an elongated pad, an inner lining for said pad, said inner lining being relatively soft and impervious to moisture, and relatively thin elastic bands attached to the ends, with one adapted to extend around the forearm and the other around the upper arm, said bands adapted to hold said device in place without binding the armor elbow. VIRGINIA W. RHORER'.
