UNITED STATES PATENT OFFICE.
JOSEPH J. MARTINKA, 0F NEWARK, NEW JERSEY.
GATAMENIAL SACK.
Application filed September 13, 1919.
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that l, JOSEPH J. MARTINKA, a citizen of the United States, residing at Newark, in the county of Essex and fitate of New Jersey, have invented new and useful Improvements in Catamenial Sacks, of which the following is a specification.
The object of my present invention is the provision of a catamenial sack which while simple and inexpensive in construction is highly efficient and sanitary when put to use.
To the attainment of the foregoing, the invention consists in the peculiar and advantageous catamenial sack hereinafter described and definitely claimed.
In the accompanying drawings, hereby made a part hereof:
Figure l is a perspective showing the body of my novel catamenial sack, the attaching straps complementary thereto, and the gasket member in proper position on the body.
Fig. 2 is a top plan view illustrative of the arrangement of the gasket member on the frame of the body.
Fig. 3 is an inverted plan view of the body and its appurtenances.
Fig. 4 is a longitudinal central section illustrative of the body and the appurtenances thereof. 7
Fig. 5 is a transverse section of the same.
Similar numerals of reference designate corresponding parts in all of the views of the drawings.
The gasket member 1 of my improvement is preferably formed of a section of sponge, and is bifurcated, as indicated by 2, so that it comprises a major portion and side portions or arms at the sides of the bifurcation as illustrated. The said gasket member in use is designed to be superimposed upon the body 3. The said body 3, for the sake of lightness and requisite strength, is formed of celluloid, though it may be made of any other material compatible with its purpose. In form the body 3 is elliptical, and it is provided adjacent to one end with an aperture 4:, and adjacent to its opposite end with apertures 5; the said apertures l and 5 being designed for the connection of attaching straps 6, 7 and 8, each of which preferably Specification of Letters Patent.
Patented Jan. 27, 1920.
Serial No. 323,454.
comprises an elastic portion of short length adjacent to the body 3, and a comparatively long non-elastic portion, as illustrated. On its inner edge the body 3 is provided with pendent and apertured lugs 9, and to the said lugs are connected by threads 10, or other suitable means, flaps 11 which are preferably flexible in character and are formed of leather or other suitable material. At the outer sides of the flaps and adjacent to the under side of the body 3 are strips 12 of celluloid or other suitable material. These strips are connected by the threads 10, and are designed and adapted to prevent sagging of the upper edges of the flaps 11. The said flaps 11 are adapted to be arranged in lapped relation, and one is provided with a button 13, and the other with a buttonhole 14, whereby the flaps may be connected together in lapped relation, so as to support a mass 15 of absorbent material, within the open elliptical body. Manifestly by opening the flaps 11, the absorbent material may be expeditiously and easily removed and as readily replaced with fresh absorbent material, and this without disturbing the body 3 or the gasket member 1, which, as its name imports, is designed to prevent leakage above the body 3. 7
It will be readily apparent from the foregoing that my novel catamenial sack is efficient and sanitary, notwithstanding its simplicity, and is eminently desirable for such reason.
The forward ends of the bifurcated gasket member are, by preference, detachably connected through the medium of a string 20.
Having described my invention, what I claim and desire to secure by Letters-Pat ent,'is:
1. A catamenial sack comprising an open body provided with means for supporting therein a mass of absorbent material, means for attaching the body to the wearer, and a bifurcated gasket of absorbent character removably superimposed upon the body and having its ends detachably connected together.
2. A catamenial sack comprising an open body having pendent apertured lugs, the said body being of elliptical configuration flaps connected to said lugs, comparatively stifl strips arranged at the outer sides of the upper portions of the flaps and connected to the lugs, means for detacliably connecting the flaps together in lapped relation so as to enable the same to support absorbent material in the body, means for attaching the body to a wearer, and a bifurcated gasket of sponge superimposed upon the body and retained in position by the attaching means; 10 said gasket member being separable from the body.
In testimony whereof I affix my signature.
