Abstract
Abstract A device for protecting body portions which are exposed to large amounts of the radiation from the sun. The device is molded into the shape of the body portion from a material which is formretaining, tear-resistant, soft, flexible and lightweight. An adhesive is provided on the inner surfaces of the device. The device is ventilated by through-pores or by the manner in which the adhesive is distributed on the inner surfaces.

Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 9
Claim 1
Independent Claim
101 words
A protective device for shielding exposed portions of the nose from the ultraviolet radiation from the sun comprising: a reusable, soft, highly resilient, form-retaining, thin-walled elastomeric member molded in the shape of a nose for fitting over the exposed nose portion; adhesive means on at least a portion of the inner surface for attaching said molded member to said exposed nose portion; and means on said device for providing ventilation of said exposed nose portion without permitting the entry of substantial amounts of ultraviolet radiation through said device, said device being very readily attachable and detachable from said exposed nose portion.
