Description
D. D. SEREBRIN BIB FOR CHILDREN May 8, 1951 Filed March 17, 1948 //v l/EN TOR fioeovwy 05E 6 W M M Patented May 8, 1951 UNlTED STATES PATENT OFFICE BIB FOR CHILDREN Dorothy Dee Serebrin, Minneapolis, Minn.
Application March 17, 1948, Serial No. 15,331 3 Claims. (01. 2-49) This invention relates to loibs for children,
set of detachable moisture absorptive front sheets of the same contour as the back sheet, except for attachment tabs and for the lower end of a front sheet to fit into a pocket provided on the front side of the back sheet.
Another object of my invention is to provide a.
childs bib with a smaller detachable moisture absorptive sheet, normally serving as a pad around the neck opening under the waterproof back sheet, but which may in emergency be quickly converted to the front, to provide a clean moisture absorptive surface, without changing the regular absorptive front sheet.
Another object of my invention is to provide a childs bib with a waterproof back sheet, which will work in conjunction with the absorptive front sheet elements, so that the front sheets will not be required to absorb an undue amount of moisture resulting in frequent change, but excess flow of liquid and food will .be directed by the back sheet and caught by a receptacle thereof.
Other objects will be apparent from the description and appended claims.
For a full disclosure of my invention, reference is made to the description following and to the drawing, in which:
Fig. 1 is a front elevational view of an assembled bib.
Fig. 2 is a sectional View on line 22 of Fig. 1.
Fig. 3 is an elevational back view. The top of the pocket and attachment tabs, on the front side, are indicated by dotted lines.
Fig. 4 is a sectional view on line 4-4 of Fig. 1.
Referring now to the several figures of the drawing, the reference character ll] indicates a back sheet of waterproof material like oil cloth, which is of suitable contour to fit over the chest and around the arm positions, and to properly protect the child's garments from being soiled, stained or wet. A neck cutout II is provided,
and the entire sheet bound at the selvage by a fabric tape [2 extending over the edge and held down by stitching, to prevent the edge from fraying. Extensions [3 of this tape from the ends of the neck opening, provide strings of a length to serve for tying the bib in place on the child. A pocket I4 is formed by an additional piece of waterproof material, which is secured in place by the placing of the tape 12 as above stated, binding in the edge of the pocket piece together with the sheet Ill and securing by stitching through the tape, which extends over the edge of both. The upper edge of the pocket is similarly protected by the same kind of tape. Pleats l5 facilitate the pocket flaring outwardly for use. A detachable front sheet I 6 of moisture absorptive material, like outing flannel, is provided, for example, in sets of three to provide one for each of three meals. These sheets are preferably of two thicknesses of material and bound all around the edge with some of the tape l2, as in the case of the back sheet. Attachment tabs H are provided, which fold over and are secured to the back of the back sheet by snap fasteners 18. Except for these attachment tabs and a slight narrowing at the bottom to extend into the pocket It, the front sheet is of the same contour as the back sheet. This adds to the comfort of the child in that the harsh cold surface of the oil cloth is not exposed to touch. For the same reason, the neck cutout in the front sheet is made, so that it extends slightly above the edge of the neck cutout in the back sheet. This sheet of flannel is soft and comfortable and may also be used as a napkin in wiping the childs mouth. Another smaller detachable moisture absorptive sheet IQ, is secured by the snap fasteners 25 by means of the attachment tabs 2!, in the same manner as the front sheet, except that the fastener engagement is on the front of the back sheet. These attachment tabs are indicated in dotted outline in Fig. 3. This sheet [9, to serve as an emergency sheet in case of excess spillage, which may soak up the front sheet so much that it does not serve the child comfortably for the duration of the meal, is normally positioned on the back of the back sheet. In such position, it acts as a soft pad around and extending slightly over the edge of the neck opening of the waterproof back sheet, so that any harsh feeling of the back sheet is eliminated. In an emergency, this sheet [9 can be quickly pulled out from back of the back sheet and flipped over to the front of the front sheet, providing a dry, clean and comfortable surface under the child's chin to last out the meal. A vertical taped and sewed ridge 22 in front of back sheet, will be observed from the sectional view of Fig. 4. This ridge deflects the front sheet an appreciable distance away from the back sheet. This prevents the front sheet, when wet, from sticking to the back sheet causing a clammy feeling. It also, by providing air circulation on both sides of the front sheet, causes same to dry. With an excess of spillage on the front sheet beyond its saturation point, the excess percolates through the front sheet and drops on the smooth surface of the back sheet, which being out of contact with the front sheet, quickly conveys it to the pocket I4. This ridge 22 extends from the neck out out to the bottom of the pocket It. Besides acting as a deflector, as above stated, it also acts as a deflector to keep the pocket open aided by the pleats l5, to catch any excess flow of liquid or dropping of food. The waterproof back sheet and its pocket, made entirely of oil cloth or the like, can be readily wiped clean with a cloth. The absorptive material sheets may have food .dried on them, but are easily washed right away, and can be quickly dried for the next meal or the next day.
From the foregoing, it will be apparent how the bib is made. It will also be apparent how the stated objects are accomplished, resulting in a much improved, comfortable, cfiicient and durable article.
While I have shown and described a preferred form of my invention, it is obvious that many changes, which are within the scope of my'invention, will be apparent to those skilled in the art. I therefore desire to be limited only by the scope of the appended claims.
What I claim is.
1. A childs bib, comprising a waterproof back sheet, a moisture absorptive front sheet and a moisture absorptive emergency sheet, in a standby position on the back of the waterproof back sheet; said back sheet being of a shape to engage over the chest and fit around the arm positions and the neck of a child and being provided with tie strips for the neck, a pocket at the bottom thereof and means in the form of a vertical ridge substantially medially and on the front side thereof, to keep said front sheet in spaced relationship to said back sheet, so that the front sheet will be relieved of an excess amount of moisture by same percolating through and onto the surface of the back sheet, and being directed into the pocket; said front sheet being substanti ly of the shape of the back sheet with a narrowing at the bottom to fit into the pocket thereof and provided with snap fasteners for detachably securing same to the back sheet; said emergency sheet being of a relatively smaller size than the front sheet and of a general oval contour and provided with snap fasteners for detachably securing same to the back sheet, 'but readily convertible to the front surface of thebib, to absorb excess moisture in an emergency.
