CATAMENIAL NAPKlN.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 728,432, dated May 19, 1903.
Application filed March 8, 1902. Serial No. 97,219. (No model.) I
T0 at whom it may concern:
My invention relates to catamenial napkins or bandages which women find it necessary or expedient to wear periodically; and my object is to produce such an attachment which shall present a liberal quantity of absorbent material, but which shall be at the same time cleanly, comfortable whenworn, and readily The invention consists in forming a cloth or napkin so that it is especially adapted to this purpose. More particularly the invention lies inthose features to be more fully described hereinafter, and definitely set forth in the claims.
In the drawings hich fully illustrate my invention, Figure -rep'resents a napkin unfolded. Fig. 2 represents the same partly folded. Fig. 3 represents the napkin folded in the form best adapted for use, a portion being broken away, as will appear; and Fig. 4 is a central cross-section of the napkin when folded.
Referring to the parts by letters, A represents the napkin, which'should be preferably made of suitable absorbent cloth'and of substantially rectangular form. From opposite sides of the napkin the cloth is cut inward, as shown at a. a, near its top edge a distance sub stantially one-third of the width thereof, and
that portion a, of the napkin, which lies above" these cuts a and indicated in part by the dotted outline, is then folded over upon itself and is sewed along the edgesa a to form a band, in the middle part of which is a pocket a, formed by the failure to sew to the cloth beneath it the middle part of the turned-over portion a. The flaps a of the body of the napkin may then be folded at points indicated by the dotted lines a, whereupon the a belt or any other suitable support.
napkin will assume the arrangement shown in Fig. 2. 7
It may then be folded along the lines a. thereby forming what may be called a pad of cloth, which is thrust into the pocket at, which was formed in the middle part of the band a, the napkin then appearing as shown in Figs. 3 and 4:. In this manner a suitable pad of many thicknesses of absorbent material is produced, and which is now adapted to be applied. This is effected by passing the napkin from front to back beneath the body and securing the ends a of the band to The gether except at the-middle portion, and the part below the cuts having the side portions folded upon the central portion to form a pad which is in turn folded upon itself and inserted into the middle portion between the sewed portions, substantially as described.
2. A catamenial napkin consisting of a.
piece of cloth cut'inward from both sides near the top edge, the part above said cuts being folded over and its parallel edges sewed to- .85
gether except at its middle portion to which the body part-of the napkin remains attached,
thereby forming a two-ply band having a central pocket into which the body of the napkin when folded may be inserted and a nonabsorbent material carried within said pocket but on the outside of said pad, substantially as described.
3. A catamenial napkin consisting of a rectangular piece of cloth cut inward from the sides at points opposite each other, the part abovesaid cuts being folded over onto itself middle part of the top portion, substantially and its parallel edges there sewed together as described. 10 except at a middle portion whose length is In testimony whereof I hereunto affix my substantially the distance between said cuts, signature in the presence of two witnesses.
whereby the lower portion of said napkin THOMAS C. ASPLUND. may be folded transversely upon itself and Witnesses:
then such folded part longitudinally folded 1 JEROME P. GORIN,
and tucked into the pocket provided by the MICHAEL SANDS.
