- the manner in which this divergence acts to prevent such overlapping will be obvious, when it is considered that the splints run the full length of the garment and are in effect strapped to the trunk atone end and strapped individually to the legs at their other ends, thus holding apart those bones which might move back and forth against each other under influence of leg movements, or which might overlap, if the legs were strapped together.
- divergence facilitates-in dividual leg dressing.

G. FORDHAM GARMENT Filed Oct. 26, 1932 2 Sheets-Sheet 2 Cttorneg- Patentecl July 4, 1933 UNITED @TATES GEORGE FORDI-IAM, F POWELLTON, WEST VIRGINIA GARMENT Application filed October 26, 1932. Serial No. 639,697.
This invention relates to a garment, reinforced at suitable points, with splints, whereby the garment is particularly adapted to hold various members of an injured person rigid.
it may be stated generally that the transportation of a disabled person from the depth of a mine or quarry, up and down ladderways, stair-ways, steep embankments, over rough and mountainous country, etc., has
long been a serious problem, taxing the resourcefulness of those engaged in the work.
It has been suggested that a stretcher, to which the body might be strapped, be utilized for this purpose, but a stretcher in itself fails to provide the desired flexibility of use, or to offer the advantages of a garment such as hereinafter described.
One object of the present invention is to provide a splint structure possessing adequate strength. and durability, while light and inexpensive, and which may be rolled or folded into compact form when not in actual use.
A further important object is to provide a device which will not interfere with the normal use of a stretcher when same is available, and of such a character that an injured person may be handled with the maximum ease and comfort, and to support the injured memhere with minimum discomfort, while at the same time aflording a maximum of protection.
A man injured in a mine is generally subjected to shock and cold, in addition to his actual injury, and it is further contemplated that this garment be designed to protect against both shock, cold and dampness, thus taking the place of blankets, or other coverings.
More specifically it is an object of the present invention to provide a combined splint and garment which is particularly eiiicacious in handling cases of fracture of the pelvis, legs and back.
Still another object contemplates an arrangement whereby access may be had readily to any injured part, for dressing thereof, separately and independently of the other parts of the body, and in-the case of fractures of the pelvic bone, to provide means which Wlll prevent any overlapping or movement of the fractured segments, thus eliminating any chance of perforating the bladder.
To the attainment of the above and other objects which will appear as the description proceeds, reference may be made to the accompanying drawings, in which Fig. 1 is a perspective of the device partially applied;
Fig. 2 is a plan showing the inside of the device;
Fig. 3 is a plan showing the outside thereof;
Fig. 4 is a section on the line 44 of Fig. 2;
Fig. 5 is a section on line 5-5 of Fig. 2; and
Fig. 6 is a section on line 6-6 of Fig. 2.
It will be observed that the garment, when opened for application, comprises a relatively fiat body of sheet material such as canvas, rubber, rubberized fabric or the like, having a jacket portion 10, with leg portions 11 and 12 depending therefrom, and that the inside of the garment, i. e., the side which is to be positioned against the body is quilted substarlitially throughout its area, as indicated at 3. i
The top edge of the jacket portion is cut away at 14 to provide arm holes and at 15 and 16 to provide a neck opening when in use. I Ties 17 are arranged at suitable intervals entirely about the edges of the jacket portion 10 and the leg portions 11 and 12, and across the top edge or shoulder portions for the purpose of securing the garment in position.
Suitable flaps 18 are projected from the quilted section, along the longitudinal edges of the garment, to permit overlapping and to ensure a certain amount of adjustability in the device, effective to accommodate indi viduals of variant size.
To increase the adjustability and adaptability of the garment, the leg portions are permanently attached to the jacket portion over part only of their upper edges, ties 19 being relied upon to complete the attachment thereof to the jacket portion, after the individual leg portions have been secured to the injured party.
Extending longitudinally of the garment are a series of splints or stays 20, :21, 22 and 23, these stays reaching substantially from the top edge of the jacket portion 10 to the bottom edge of the leg portions 11 and 12. An important feature of this invention resides in the fact that the central splints or stays and 21 diverge toward the leg portions, although the splints 22 and 23 are substantially parallel to the longitudinal axis and thus are disposed in converging relation to the splints 20 and 21.
The ties 19, being effective to secure the front of the leg portions to the jacket, in crease the general stifi'ness of the garment, by minimizing any tendency toward bending between the upper and lower parts of the garment.
These splints are made of any material suitable for the purpose, such as wood, leather, whale bone, rawhide or the like.
Additional splints may be provided as desired in the several portions of the garment, for example, the splints 24k and 25 extending along the leg portion and terminating short of the jacket, thus providing increased rigidity about a fractured leg. If desired other additional stays might be placed in the jacket.
From the foregoing it will be seen that a garment is provided which may be laid out flat and an injured party placed thereon, whereupon the garment may be secured in position by tying same together over the shoulders, down the front of the trunk, and about the legs.
This device is particularly effective in cases of a fractured pelvis, the splints or stays 20 and 21 diverging from top to bottom for the purpose of preventing and avoiding any overlapping of broken sections of the pelvic bone, by holding the legs in slightly spread position, thus preventing any tendency toward perforation of the bladder. The manner in which this divergence acts to prevent such overlapping will be obvious, when it is considered that the splints run the full length of the garment and are in effect strapped to the trunk atone end and strapped individually to the legs at their other ends, thus holding apart those bones which might move back and forth against each other under influence of leg movements, or which might overlap, if the legs were strapped together. Furthermore, such divergence facilitates-in dividual leg dressing. The garment is also advantageous in cases of injury tothe back and legs. Because it is quilted and preferably made of a waterproof material, the garment itself forms a warm, waterproof covering, taking the place of a blanket or poncho, as well as providing a splint.
The quilting alsoserves tocare for inequalities of bone protrusion, and as a padding for bruised areas.
lVhile in no sense of the word a stretcher, this invention may be used for many purposes in lieu of a stretcher, and in locations where a stretcher is impracticable, as well as in addition'to a stretcher when same is available.
Although the preferred form comprises a waterproof, quilted structure, it is evident that this garment might be constructed of light, perforated or foraminous material, or even of springlike mesh material, for use in warm locations, and it is not intended that it shall be limited, other than as provided in the appended claims.
lVhen not in use, the garment can be compactly rolled and stored or carried on a mine car withouttaking up any unnecessary room.
