  • Patent number: 6416379
    Abstract: A whistle of generally mandolin shape is adapted for adjustable mounting or seating on one's hand, wrist or forearm, or on a bulky sports glove or the like in a position facilitating convenient blowing of the whistle. A bracket is fixed generally tangentially to a generally cylindrically shaped whistle chamber portion of the whistle and has openings therethrough to receive a flexible strap that facilitates mounting of the whistle on one's hand, wrist or forearm, or on a bulky glove or the like with a mouthpiece portion of the whistle extending outwardly for convenient access for blowing. The strap defines a plurality of transverse ridges along its length that cooperate with the bracket to substantially prevent movement of the whistle along the strap when the strap is in a longitudinally taut condition.
