SUSPENSORY BANDAGE.
SPECIFICATION formingpart of Letters Patent No. 744,512, dated November 17, 1903.-
Applioation filed June 23, 1903. Serial No. 162,757. (No model.)
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, EDWIN R DRA KE, of
De Land, in the county of Volusia and State of Florida, have invented a new and useful Improvement in Suspensory Bandages, of which the following is a specification.
My invention is an improvement in that class of suspensory bandages having a legband connecting the scrotal bag or pouch with the body-band. I have devised an improvement in such leg-bands, whereby durability and the comfort of the wearer of the bandage are greatly increased.
-The details of construction and arrangement of parts are as hereinafter described, reference being had to the accompanying drawings, in which s Figure l is a perspective view of a suspensory bandage embodying my invention. Fig. 2 is a plan View of the central portion of my improved leg-band. Fig. 3 is a perspective View, enlarged, of the fold of the legband.
The leg-bandA is formed of elastic or a rubber tape of seven-eighths of an inch in Width. The central portion a for a length of about six inches is doubled or folded trans:
versely upon itself, and its edges are sewed together, as shown, the outer or remaining portions b of said band having their normal or full breadth. The part 0. passes through and is slidable in a ring 0, attached to the scrotal pouch d, andthe parts 19 are suitably secured to the body-band e in any preferred way. The part a thus doubled or folded is far more comfortable to the wearer than if left of normal width, in which case it would twist or fold irregularly, and it is also much more durable, besidesbeing adapted to slide freely in the pouch-ringc, so that the leg-band as a Whole readilyaadjusts itself to the varying positions of the legs of the wearer.
Another principal feature of myinvention is the manner in which the parts a andb are- "leg-band and stitched thereto, as shown. The
folds or laps a thus lie flat upon the part b, so as to form practically an unobtrusive attachment thereof, and will not chafe the skin of the wearer of the suspensory. The legband may therefore be worn with entire comfort, besides sliding more easily and being more durable than those constructed and arranged in the usual manner.
What I claim is' l 1. An improved suspensory bandage comprising the usual body-band and a pouch hav-' ing a ring attached,,and a leg-band which is slidable in said ring and formedof an elas-- tic tape having a narrowed central portion formed by folding the tape transversely upon itself fiatwise and sewing the edges of the folds together, the ends of such central portion. being folded at an angle and stitched to the broad flat bottoms b, as shown and described.
- 2. As an improved article of manufacture the leg-band for suspensory bandages, con- ,sisting of an elastic tape having its central portion folded upon itself and its edges sewed together and theend a of such portions being folded diagonally across the broad fiat portions 12 and stitched thereto, as shown .and
' described.
