PROTECTIVE PAD Filed Sept. 23, 1959 A 4 I O a 4 INVENTOR CyQ/L J 50 YA I w W ATTORNEY H Patented Sept. 2, 1941 UNITED STATES 'PATENT OFFIC IE A @3333; 1... Cyril J. Boyle, Sioux Falls, 8. hair. Application September 23, 1939, Serial No. 296,207 1 Claim. (01. 128-156) This invention relates to protective pads. It is particularly directed to a protective pad including an adhesive tape to be applied to the part of the body to protect blisters, sores or rubbed portions, or in any other place where friction is causing irritation.
Heretofore, pads or bandages of the character described comprised an elongated piece of adliesive tape, and a piece of gauze or other material attached to the adhesive tape, contacting the rubbed or injured section, and the adhesive tape was used for attaching the bandage or pad to the body. with such devices, the part that contacts the skin being attached to the adhesive, would move back and forth with the adhesive, causing further friction and irrltation, defeating the purpose of the pad. It is therefore an object of this invention to eliminate this difliculty with prior pads by providing a pad which may be attached to a portion of the body to cover and protect rubbed or sore parts, means being provided to prevent the portion of the pad which contacts the sore part from rubbing against said part,
-and hence, preventing further irritation due to friction.
Yet another object of this invention is to provide a neat and durable pad of the character described, which shall be relatively inexpensive to manufacture, easy to apply, and which shall yet be practical and efllcient to a high degree in use.
Other objects of this invention will in part be obvious and in part hereinafter pointed out.
The invention accordingly consists in the features of construction, combinations of elements, and arrangement of parts which will be exemplified in the construction hereinafter described and of which the scope of application will be indicated in the following claim.
In the accompanying drawing, in which are shown various possible illustrative embodiments of this invention,
Fig. 1 is a plan view of a pad embodying the invention;
Fig. 2 is an end view thereof;
Fig. 3 is a view similar to Fig. 1, but illustrating a modified construction; and
Fig. 4 is a view similar to Fig. 2, but showing a piece of gauze thereon for application of salve or other medicament to the sore, rubbed or iniured part.
Referring now in detail to the drawing, l designates a pad embodying the invention. The same comprises an elongated strip ll of adhesive tape. having an adhesive surface l2. On the center portion of the adhesive surface is a thin, smooth sheet l3 of Cellophane, Pliofllm or other glazed or semi-glazed material or other flexible or semi-rigid material such as paper, with semiglazed, glazed or smoothed surfaces. This sheet by contacting the adhesive surface I! of the ad hesive strip H, is attached thereto.
- On top of the sheet II is another sheet ll of similar material, and 'on top of sheet I, is a sheet l5, likewise of similar material. If desired, the sheets l3, l4 and I5 may be made of a single, elongated sheet or strip folded into-three layers. The sheet l5 contacts the sore place and acts as a skin and stays in one place, and firmly protects the sore while the sheet in the center moves freely in any direction, thus relieving all friction. The sheet I! is attached to the adhesive pad, and is firmly held thereto, thus allowing the central sheet to move in any direction between the two glazed sheets is and I5, and thus eliminating rubbing and friction.
It will now be understood that the pad l0 may be used with good results by golf or tennis players to cover sore hands or feet. If a tennis player, having a blister,- were to apply a pad thereto with the portion contacting the blister firmly fixed to the adhesive tape, then if the player continued to play, the portion contacting the sore part would continue to rub, as it must move back and forth with the adhesive tape, as the racket is gripped.
With the present invention, the adhesive tape may move and the sheet l3 moves therewith. The sheet I slides back and forth, but since it is smooth, the sheet I! will not move back and forth, and therefore will not rub the sore part.
In Fig. 3 there is shown a pad Illa, similar to the pad III, with the exception that the strip of adhesive projects only to one side of the superimposed sheets l3, l4 and It. This type of tape may be used to wrap around a finger.
As shown in Fig. 4 of the drawing, a sheet of gauze l8 may be placed over the sheet I! for applying salve or other medicament to the sore pa It will thus be seen that there is provided a device in which the several obiects of this invention are achieved, and which is well adapted to meet the conditions of practical use.
As various possible embodiments might be made of the above invention, and as various changes might be made in the embodiments above set forth, it is to be understood that all matter herein set forth or shown in the accom- 2 ass-mas panying drawing is to be interpreted as illustrative and not in a limiting sense.
Having thus described my invention, I claim as new and desire to secure by Letters Patent:
A pad comprising a strip 01' adhesive tape, a thin sheet of non-absorbent material fixed to the adhesive surface 01 said strip and covering the full width of a portion thereof, a similar second sheet superimposed on the first sheet, and
a like third sheet superimposed on the second sheet, said second and third sheets being tree or said adhesive surface, each of said sheets being smooth on the contacting surfaces thereof. whereby said adhesive tape, said first mentioned and second sheets all will have sliding relative movement to said third sheet when the latter is held fixed.
CYRIL J. BOYLE.
