Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 6
Claim 1
Independent Claim
174 words
A garment, comprising insulating material dimensioned and shaped to fit on a human body, said insulating material consisting of moldable material having a plurality of substantially spherical air pockets formed in the material; an elongated hole formed through the insulating material; and ventilating means movably mounted in said insulating material and manually positioned to selectively cover and uncover said hole, said ventilating means including manual means for manually moving said ventilating means to selectively cover and uncover said hole, last line, before the period has been inserted--said ventilating means comprising first and second strips affixed in the hole in substantially juxaposed position each of said first and second strips having a plurality of spaced holes formed therethrough, the holes of said first and second strips being in alignment, and a third strip slidably interposed between the first and second strips and having a plurality of sp spaced holes formed therethrough, said third strip including said manual means and being manually movable to selectively clear and block the holes of said first and second strips.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim
174 words
A garment, comprising insulating material dimensioned and shaped to fit on a human body, said insulating material consisting of moldable material having a plurality of substantially spherical air pockets formed in the material; an elongated hole formed through the insulating material; and ventilating means movably mounted in said insulating material and manually positioned to selectively cover and uncover said hole, said ventilating means including manual means for manually moving said ventilating means to selectively cover and uncover said hole, last line, before the period has been inserted--said ventilating means comprising first and second strips affixed in the hole in substantially juxaposed position each of said first and second strips having a plurality of spaced holes formed therethrough, the holes of said first and second strips being in alignment, and a third strip slidably interposed between the first and second strips and having a plurality of sp spaced holes formed therethrough, said third strip including said manual means and being manually movable to selectively clear and block the holes of said first and second strips.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim
49 words
A garment as claimed in claim 1, wherein the insulating material consists of two layers of material each having a plurality of substantially semispherical air pockets formed therein, said layers being airtightly sealed together in a manner whereby the semispherical air pockets are combined to form spherical air pockets.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim
19 words
A garment as claimed in claim 1, wherein the insulating material consists of one of plastic and rubber material.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim
25 words
A garment as claimed in claim 1, wherein the insulating material has an outer surface, and further comprising a luminous coating on said outer surface.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim
23 words
A garment as claimed in claim 2, further comprising a third layer of material interposed and sealed between the two layers of material.
