In an example, a wearable article includes a nonwoven textile sheet having a first portion and a second portion contiguous with the first portion. The first portion has a first density and a first modulus of elasticity. The second portion has a second density less than the first density and has a second modulus of elasticity less than the first modulus of elasticity. The first portion is shaped differently than the second portion as an integral implement of the wearable article. A method of manufacturing a wearable article may comprise thermoforming the first portion while the second portion contiguous with the thermoformed first portion is not thermoformed.

A restraint anchor in accordance with at least one of the present inventions includes an attachment member that is adapted to be secured to a patient restraint and a base member, associated with the attachment member, that is adapted to be secured to a portion of a patient support apparatus.

A buckle for tightening or loosening a band, including: a buckle body having a pair of hinge holes; a plate spring arranged in the buckle body with a leading part positioned in a sliding path of the band, the leading part being shaped to slope with a leading end contacting a back side of the band so as to be caught by a catch projection of the band; and a buckle switch having a pivot pressure piece with hinge projections, and an operation lever connected to a pivot pressure piece so as to be exposed to one side of the buckle body. The leading end of the plate spring is separated from the band so as to make the band slide in a loosening direction when the plate spring is pressed by the pivot pressure piece.

A buckle includes a folding member, a buckle cover pivotably linked to the folding member, a slide plate supported slidably relative to the buckle cover in the longitudinal direction of the band, and a swing arm rotatably supported by the buckle cover. The slide plate has a plurality of groove sections provided along the longitudinal direction. The swing arm includes a base, an arm section, an engagement click, and an operation strip, and is supported rotatably in a first rotational direction in which the engagement click engages with any of the groove sections and in a second rotational direction in which the engagement click separates from the groove section. The folding member includes a protruding section that comes into contact with the operation strip to rotate the swing arm in the second rotational direction when the folding member is rotated relative to the buckle cover.

A multi-point buckle has a buckle, at least two latches and a plurality of dust jackets. The buckle has a plurality of tongue slots on a peripheral edge. Each of the latches has at least two tongues, and each tongue is capable of being inserted into one of the tongue slots of the buckle for locking. Each dust jacket has a through slot through two opposite ends for accepting one of the tongues. One of the two opposite ends of the dust jacket is a first abutting end, the first abutting end abutting an edge of the buckle when the one of the tongues and a corresponding tongue slot are locked together, and the first abutting end has a loop lip around an opening of the through slot for filling in between the tongue and the tongue slot and prevent dust from entering.
