In the state of the art, numerous trays are known, so as to protect clothing from crumbs or droplets that fall down when eating a meal during a car ride or train ride. It is true that these trays catch everything, as desired, but for the remainder they are quite impractical, since the open tray with the droplets or crumbs stands in the car or train and must be cleaned before being stowed away or is actually only available as a disposable solution. Other solutions are too large to be conveniently stowed away after use.

For this reason, a foldable tray is proposed, which can be folded up in sealed manner after use, into a compact unit, without the crumbs or droplets being able to exit from the unit. This is possible by means of division of a base plate having a connected apron, wherein the base plate consists of two parts that can be folded up, between which the apron can be laid.

An article of clothing provides workers or users with a modifiable or transformable bottom garment which may be arranged in a functional, work configuration or a more aesthetic, non-work configuration by selectively folding a cover assembly downward or upward relative to the bottom garment. When folded downward, the cover assembly may reveal functional elements such as tool-supporting loops, pockets, etc., and/or may provide an inner surface for the wearer to clean their hands. When folded upward, a pocket is instead formed between the cover assembly and the bottom garment, for the wearer to warm their hands. One or more inserts may be connected to the downward-folded cover assembly to provide additional utilities or functions.

A dental bib has a built-in sanitary collar that, in one embodiment, is completely detachable from the rest of the bib by tearing along a pre-perforated line between the main portion of the bib and the detachable portion of the bib. The main portion of the bib is secured to the wearer by mechanical means and worn over the chest as a bib, while the detached portion is separately secured to the wearer by mechanical means and worn around the neck as a sanitary collar. The two free ends of the detached portion of the bib can be secured around the neck as a collar with self-adhesive material or clips. Similarly, the main portion of the bib can be secured to the wearer using self-adhesive material or clips. In another embodiment, the sanitary collar is not completely detachable, but is formed by folding a portion of the bib around the neck.

An adjustable smock that facilitates attachment and detachment from a person. The smock includes a body with one or more adjustable tabs. The tabs extend outward from the body and are configured to be inserted into a corresponding receptacle along an opposing section of the body.

A bag convertible to a bib. The bag is comprised of a primary flexible material (such as paper) and may also incorporate an attachment mechanism and a scored or perforated portion. Score lines enable a user to transform a portion of the bag walls from the open end of the bag into the straps of a bib. With the straps of the bag unfurled, the user can connect the strap ends to each other behind the neck of the user (or, if there is one long strap, around the neck of the user and then re-connected to the bag), such that the remainder of the bag hangs from the user's neck presenting a portion of the bag to collect falling debris, and a bib surface which rests on the chest (or clothing, etc.) of the user to intercept spillage.

A protective wash garment for use by workers during washing operations is disclosed. The protective wash garment is comprises a two-layer construction in which the first layer is a water resistant material. The second layer is a high porosity material that is laid over the first layer. Water that comes into contact with the second layer passes through and is caught between the first and second layer. The water then falls to the bottom of the first layer into a gutter formed by folding a bottom flap of the first layer up. The bottom flap is folded such that the gutter runs at an angle to urge the water that falls into the gutter to flow to a lower end of the gutter. The lower end of the gutter is beyond the feet of the worker wearing the garment. Thus, water spayed upon the garment falls into the gutter and flows out away from the feet of the worker wearing the garment.

The present invention is generally directed to a portable, reusable, and rapidly deployable protective cover configured to be worn over a person's clothing and to protect portions of the person's torso and lap from liquid and solid spills, particularly while in a seated position, such as when sitting in a vehicle.
