EASY-TO-CLEAN WATERPROOF AND BREATHABLE BIB FABRIC, PREPARATION METHOD THEREOF AND BIB INCLUDING THE SAME
The invention involves the technical field of daily necessities, and in particular, relates to an easy-to-clean waterproof and breathable bib fabric, a preparation method, and a bib. A layer structure of the bib fabric is as follows: a hydrophobic and oleophobic surface layer, a polyurethane waterproof layer, an antibacterial and antistatic layer, and a woven layer. The hydrophobic and oleophobic surface layer has waterproof and breathable properties, is not easy to be adhered to by dirt, and is easy to clean. The polyurethane waterproof layer keeps liquids from penetrating the fabric, and the porous structure also allows for breathability. The antibacterial and antistatic layer can remove the static electricity generated by the fabric, protect the polyurethane waterproof layer from being decomposed by molds, inhibit the growth of bacteria inside the woven layer, and produce antibacterial and deodorizing effects. Further, a bib using the fabric and a preparation method are provided.
MEN'S UNDER SHORTS
An improved men's underwear that provides for quick access to penis for faster and cleaner urination. This underwear is the first to allow catheterized men to use underwear giving them back their dignity. The underwear includes a movable sheath and stretchable opening that allows fabric to slide back and forth the shaft of the penis. This stretchable opening also allows for the changing/inserting of catheters without having to take off the underwear. To urinate one simply slides back the fabric (over the zipper teeth) exposing the penis and then upon completion pushes the material forward completely covering the penis. The penis and zipper teeth never touch each other.
Undergarment
An undergarment has a fabric body having a base layer and a lining layer. The lining layer is adjacent to an inner side of the base layer and has an odor controlling and antimicrobial layer being away from the base layer and a leak-proof layer being adjacent to the base layer. The odor controlling and antimicrobial layer has a bamboo charcoal fiber layer and a coffee ground fabric layer. The undergarment has advantages of moisture absorption, leak-proofness, odor control, and antimicrobial function.
MOVEMENT-REACTIVE ATHLETIC APPAREL AND METHODS OF MAKING THE SAME
Articles of athletic garments, particularly sports bra and methods of treating the athletic garments with a shear thickening fluid (STF) are disclosed. The athletic garment comprises a STF treated fabric. The STF treated fabric in contact with the wearer's body part restricts movement of the body part when the shear stress exceeds the shear stress threshold value and stretches and conforms to the wearer's body part when the shear stress is less than the shear stress threshold value. The STF treatment method may include immersing the untreated fabric in a diluted STF bath, metering an amount of the fluid on the fabric, and removing the diluent from the treated fabric.
Apparatus and method for detecting and notifying postpartum haemorrhage
An apparatus for detecting and notifying occurrence of post-partum haemorrhage in female patients is envisaged. Continued tracking of the blood discharged from a female patient's body during labor as well as postnatal operation procedures is provided for, and as soon as the amount of blood discharged from the body of the female patient exceeds a predetermined threshold value, a light-based alarm and sound-based alarm are triggered. The apparatus includes a first connector connected to the female patient when she is on a Labor Recovery Delivery bed, and a second connector woven onto an undergarment to be worn by the female patient. The first connector and second connector are connected to single use, disposable blood collection bags, whose weights are measured using weight sensors for an accurate calculation of the total amount of the blood lost by the female patient during labor operation procedures and postnatal operation procedures.
Waterproof Sock Cover Apparatus
A waterproof sock cover apparatus for keeping feet warm and dry in any boot includes a sock body having a foot portion and a cuff portion. The foot portion is configured to receive a user's foot wearing a standard sock and the cuff portion is configured to extend above the standard sock and below a user's knee. The sock body comprises a breathable and soft inner layer, an insulating medial layer continuously disposed around the inner layer, and a waterproof outer layer continuously disposed around the medial layer. A sole is coupled to a bottom side of the foot portion. An elastic band is coupled to the sock body within an upper perimeter of the cuff portion. The elastic band and the surrounding sock body define an elasticized collar configured to secure a user's leg. The sock body is configured to be worn within a boot.
CLOTHING ARTICLE
A clothing article that at least partially covers at least one selected from among (i) a lower limb and (ii) an upper limb, including: a plurality of heat-retaining parts having a higher heat-retaining property than other parts of the clothing article, the plurality of heat-retaining parts including at least one of the following groups: (i) a knee part, a heel part, and a digital part for a lower limb; and (ii) a wrist part, an elbow part, and a digital part for an upper limb, a heat release part being provided to (i) at least one digital part, among the digital part for the lower limb and the digital part for the upper limb, which at least one digital part is included in the clothing article or (ii) a part adjacent to the at least one digital part, the heat release part having greater breathability than other parts of the clothing article.
SYSTEMS FOR CONTROLLING ODOR
A jacket has a torso portion, a pair of underarm portions adjacent the torso portion, and a pair of arms, one of each of the arms being adjacent one of each of the underarm portions, the cloth defining a first area and a second area. The article further includes a first assembly including one or more scent control materials provided within the first area defined by a cloth and a second assembly including one or more scent control materials provided within the second area defined by the cloth, the second assembly having a different composition than the first assembly. The first assembly and the second assembly together include activated carbon and at least one of carbon treated to adsorb hydrogen sulfide, zeolite, ammonia stone, and carbon treated to adsorb mercaptan.
Movement-reactive athletic apparel and methods of making the same
Articles of athletic garments, particularly sports bra and methods of treating the athletic garments with a shear thickening fluid (STF) are disclosed. The athletic garment comprises a STF treated fabric. The STF treated fabric in contact with the wearer's body part restricts movement of the body part when the shear stress exceeds the shear stress threshold value and stretches and conforms to the wearer's body part when the shear stress is less than the shear stress threshold value. The STF treatment method may include immersing the untreated fabric in a diluted STF bath, metering an amount of the fluid on the fabric, and removing the diluent from the treated fabric.
MULTILAYER LINING FOR CLOTHING
The present disclosure relates to a breathable, reusable, leakproof, absorbent, antimicrobial, waterproof and vapor disperser multilayer lining for clothing. A purpose of this lining is to avoid the release of body fluids such as sweat, blood, vaginal fluids, menstrual fluid, urine, breast milk or postoperative fluids.
