A blanket suspender assembly for suspending a blanket around pants of a user includes a blanket and a suspender. A strip is coupled along a full length of a top edge of the blanket. The strip is a first portion of a hook and loop fastener. The suspender comprises of a pair of straps. Each strap of the pair of straps has a front hinge and a back hinge. The suspender is placed on the shoulders of a user where the front fringe of each strap is positioned in front of the user and the back fringe of each strap is positioned behind the user. A plurality of tabs is coupled to a respective one of each front hinge and each back hinge. Each of the tabs is the second portion of the hook and loop fastener. Each of the tabs engages by hook and loop fastening with the strip.

Method, systems, and apparatus to facilitate navigation in a known environment. Communication and tracking between a receiver device and one or more beacons are provided to identify a current position of the receiver device. A direction to a next waypoint of a current path is determined based on the identified current position and a haptic feedback system is signaled to provide continuous haptic feedback to orient a user in the identified direction.

Embodiments of the present invention relate to communications tarpaulins. In one embodiment, the communications tarpaulins include a textile layer, a plurality of antenna elements, and a communications hub. The communications hub includes a plurality of radio frequency (“RF”) connectors. The communications hub is affixed to the textile layer. The RF connectors are each conductively coupled to one of the antenna elements. The RF connectors each demountably receive a communications device. The antenna elements are each affixed to the textile layer and includes a conductive composition. The antenna elements each include a conductive composition. The conductive composition includes a polymer and fully exfoliated single sheets of graphene that are present as a three-dimensional percolated network within the polymer. The textile layer includes a first textile layer and a second textile layer that are coterminous and physically coupled together and thereby form a multilayered structure.

A clip element secures a towel or other cloth-like item around a person's body. The clip secures a cloth item that is wrapped around a user's body where one end of the cloth is flat against the wearer's skin and the other end of the cloth has been gathered and tucked behind the flat cloth and preventing separation of overlapping and tucked portions of the cloth item. Unlike previous clips where the clip exerts the pressure, the bulk from the cloth and the barrier that is the wearers torso, creates the leverage to hold the towel in place. The flexible bridge allows a user to pull out on the bottom front portion of the clip while catching the back portion of the clip behind the cloth on the wearer's torso to “thread” the cloth up to the top of the clip. Once the cloth knot (created from gathering one end of the towel and tucking it behind the flat part of the towel against the wearer's skin) is at the top rounded portion of the internal clip the cloth is being held by the pressure that is created by the clips fullness.

A securing apparatus for a prosthetic leg including a belt strap, a pair of hook and loop fasteners disposed on the belt strap, and a pair of top attachment loops attached to the belt strap. A sled-shaped support attachment includes a flattened base portion, a pair of support extensions, and a pair of bottom attachment loops. Each of a right ratchet strap and a left ratchet strap of a pair of ratchet straps has an upper spring-loaded clip and a lower spring-loaded clip. The upper spring-loaded clip of each of the right ratchet strap and the left ratchet strap is attachable to the right top attachment loop and the left top attachment loop, respectively. The lower spring-loaded clip of each of the right ratchet strap and the left ratchet strap is attachable to a right bottom attachment loop and a left bottom attachment loop, respectively, of the support attachment.

A harness (10) is provided for retaining a pair of electrical rubber insulating workman sleeves (12) on the shoulders (14) of a worker (16). The harness (10) is configured to grip a portion of the worker and thereby provide better anchoring of the electrical rubber insulating sleeves (12) to the worker. The gripping feature of the harness (10) is provided either in the form of a gripping collar (24) or a pair of fabric gripping sleeves (26), or a combination of the collar (24) and sleeves (26). Further, a C-shaped connector is configured for attaching the electrical rubber insulating sleeves (12) to a single point on a harness, which allows for an increased range of motion of the sleeves (12).

This disclosure relates generally to a shirt garter (also known as a shirt stay). More specifically, this disclosure relates a shirt garter that extends around the crotch region of the wearer and is designed for use with a camisole or other shirt-type garment.
