Abstract

Abstract My invention provides a reusable cushioned pad with extending tapes for securing the pads to a person. The extending tape means are provided with self securing holding means when the tapes are overlapped and pressed together. The tapes are released from holding condition by separating the tapes and may be repeatedly used to secure the pads to a person without deterioration of the holding quality of the holding means. Secured at the ends of the tapes are tabs that are adapted to repeated use to overlap the tapes when they are in holding position, and lock the tapes together to prevent the tapes from separating during the time that a pad is secured to a person.
