BATHING MAT. 110.246,171. Patented Aug. 23,1881.
Mauren STATES ATENT erica.
HORACE H. MANSFIELD, BOSTON, MASSACHUSETTS.
BATHING-lvlAT.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. .246,171, dated August 23, 1881,
Application tiled June 7, 1881.
To all whom it may concern Be it known that I, HORACE H. M ANsFIELD, of Boston, in the county of Suffolk and State of Massachusetts, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Bathing-Mats, of which the following is a full, clear, and exact description.
This improved bathingmat is made of iudia-rubber. enameled cloth, or other iiexible material which is waterproof, and is provided with an edge entirely surrounding it and sufciently raised to prevent the water which drips from the body ofthe person who is standing upon it from escaping or running from the mat at its edges.
In the accompanying plate of drawings my improved bathing-mat is illustrated, Figure l being a perspective view; Fig. 2, a section on line .fr x, Fig. l. Fig. 3 shows 'a modification of theconstruction of the edge.
In the drawings, A represents a mat, preferably made of a sheet of vulcanized india-rubber, having its upper surface made Hat and smooth, and a the edge surrounding the same and rising slightly above the mat, and sufficiently to prevent the water which drips from a person standing' upon it, in bathing, from running or passing off at the edges of the mat.
The edge may be produced by molding the (No model.)
rubber directly into the shape shown in Figs. l and 2, or by molding and doubling over the edge, as shown in Fig. 3.
The mat, although described as made ofindiarubber, may be made of other flexible inaterial, such as enameled cloth, which is Waterproof.
This bathing-mat is to be large enough to extend over quite a surface ofthe tloor in use, to prevent spattering ofthe water, in bathing, on the floor or carpet, and to be made of quite thin material, so that when not in use it can be folded or rolled up into a small and compact bundle to be put away.
Having thus described my invention, what I claim, and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is-
l.As a new article ot' manufacture, a bathers mat made of thin Water-proof material, having its upper surface made flat and smooth, and provided with a raised edge, a, substantially as and for the purpose specified.
In testimony whereof I have hereunto set my hand in the presence of two subscribing witnesses.
H. H. MANSFIELD.
