Abstract

Abstract A strap for use with a pair of diving goggles includes a pair of rings provided at a slope across one half of the strap and incorporated therewith. The rings receive an aspiration pipe with the effect that the aspiration pipe is secured to stand at right angles with respect to the water level when the diver watches beneath him.

Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 2
Claim 1
Independent Claim 152 words
A strap for use with a pair of diving goggles and an aspiration pipe, the strap comprising: an elongated member having first and second ends releasably connected to the pair of goggles, each end having an upper and a lower edge; an arm integrally connected to both the upper and the lower edges of one of the ends of the strap, the longitudinal axes of the arms being coextensive with each other and disposed obliquely with respect to the upper and lower edges; and a ring integrally attached to the free end of each arm, the rings being adapted to support the aspiration pipe at an oblique angle relative to the strap when the rings are at substantially right angles to the arms so the aspiration pipe will in use tend to be substantially perpendicular to water level to minimize the chance of water entering the open end of the aspiration pipe.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 152 words
A strap for use with a pair of diving goggles and an aspiration pipe, the strap comprising: an elongated member having first and second ends releasably connected to the pair of goggles, each end having an upper and a lower edge; an arm integrally connected to both the upper and the lower edges of one of the ends of the strap, the longitudinal axes of the arms being coextensive with each other and disposed obliquely with respect to the upper and lower edges; and a ring integrally attached to the free end of each arm, the rings being adapted to support the aspiration pipe at an oblique angle relative to the strap when the rings are at substantially right angles to the arms so the aspiration pipe will in use tend to be substantially perpendicular to water level to minimize the chance of water entering the open end of the aspiration pipe.
