Description

Oct. 4, .1949. w. G! WAYWORTH PROTECTING STRIP FOR TROUSER CUFFS Filed Feb. 25, 1948 gdgam H. .K T mm@w mm m V a H. .P
Patented Oct. 4, 1949 UNITED STATES QEEICE 2 Claims.
This invention relates to a protecting strip for trouser cuffs and more particularly to a strip which can be applied to the inside of trouser cuffs so as to protect them from wear commonly due to rubbing against the shoes.
An object of this invention is to provide such a strip which may be readily secured to trouser cuifs without stitching or the like.
A further object is to provide a protecting strip which is easily foldable so that it will not interfere with the crease of the trousers.
A still further object of the invention is to provide a protecting strip for trouser cuffs which is economical to produce and which may be detached when desired.
Further objects and advantages of this invention will be more clearly understood from the following description and from the accompanying drawings in which:
Fig. 1 is a front view of a protecting strip embodying my invention.
Fig. 2 is an edge view thereof.
Fig. 3 is an enlarged view in vertical section on line 3-3 of Fig. 1.
Fig. 4 is a perspective view illustrating the said strip as attached to a trouser cuff.
As shown in the drawings, my improved protecting strip comprises a tape 5 of suitable material, such as textile tape or the like, having at the opposite sides thereof a coating of adhesive 6 which may be of a suitable material, such as commonly used for surgical tapes and the like. At one side of said tape 5 there is applied a pair of pads 5-1 which are spaced apart, as at 8, so as to permit the tape 5 to flex at that point to conform with the crease in the trouser leg as indicated at 9 in Fig. 4. The said pads 1-1 are preferably constructed of a suitable felt material.
In the production of this protecting strip, the felt pads 1-7 are adhered to the tape 5 by simply placing them over the coating of adhesive at one side of the strip. The opposite sides of the strip may be adhered to the trouser cuff by simply placing the strip in position, as indicated in Fig. 4,
and pressing it in place so that the adhesive will.
stick to the culf material. The adhesive used on this strip is water resistant and will prevent the protecting strip from becoming accidentally detached, should the trouser become wet. Such 2 adhesive may be readily renovated, when necessary, so as to regain its adhesive qualities should it have become hardened when detached from the cuffs after a long period of use.
If desired, said protecting strip may be mounted upon a suitable ribbon of cloth or paper material having a surface which will substantially resist the adhesive so that the strip may be readily separated therefrom for use by means of the adhesive 6 at the back side of the tape 5. When it is desired to use the strip, it may be simply pulled off the paper and the same adhesive will still remain in condition to adhere the strip to the trouser cufi.
It will be understood that, by my invention, 1 have provided a protecting strip which is easily produced and applied and which will be serviceable in its use.
I claim:
1'. A protecting strip for trouser cuffs comprising a tape of flexible material having a coating of adhesive upon the opposite sides thereof, and a pair of spaced pads of felt material of substantially the same size and contours as the tape and spaced at the center of said tape to permit flexing of the tape in said position.
2. A protecting strip for trouser cuffs of the character described comprising an elongated piece of flexible textile material having a coating of adhesive upon one side thereof for securing said strip to a surface, a coating of adhesive upon the opposite side of said tape, and a pair of pads of felt material secured to said opposite side by the adhesive thereon and spaced in the central portion of said strip to permit folding thereof to conform with a crease in the trouser cuffs.
