Abstract: A bra liner is an apparatus that conforms under a breast and is positioned in between the breast and a bra cup. The apparatus includes a flat liner body and at least one piece of adhesive. The flat liner body presses against the underside of a breast and an inner surface of a bra cup. The flat liner body includes an absorbent layer and a backing layer. The absorbent layer collects and retains sweat from the breast. The absorbent layer is connected across the backing layer. The absorbent layer and the backing layer are coextensive with each other. The at least one piece of adhesive is distributed across the backing layer. The at least one piece of adhesive is fixed onto the backing layer, opposite to the absorbent layer. The apparatus further includes a sealing sheet to prevent the at least one piece of adhesive from sticking to unwanted surfaces.

Abstract: A disposable swimsuit includes a lower piece having a front covering piece and a back covering piece to define two leg openings at two outer edges of the lower piece and a waist opening at two upper edges of the front and back covering pieces. The disposable swimsuit is made of swimwear garment including an outer stretchable layer and a lining layer overlappedly attached to the outer stretchable layer in an edge to edge manner, wherein the outer stretchable layer is made of water resistant material having air ventilating ability and flexibility, wherein the lining layer is made of non-irritant and air ventilating material.

Abstract: A garment shield for preventing an underarm portion of a garment from being damaged or becoming unsightly as a result of perspiration. The shield has an absorbent layer of material, the absorbent layer of material being of a predetermined length and a predetermined width and being foldable substantially midway along the length thereof. The absorbent layer of material having oppositely opposed indentations at peripheral edges of the width at substantially where the shield is folded, and the indentations preferably being void of any sharp edges. A plurality of spreadable incisions are located in the absorbent layer of material, with each of the incisions extending radially inward from the peripheral edge of the shield and spaced apart from one another along the peripheral edge, and the indentations being void of any of the incisions.

Abstract: A pocket assembly for a garment includes a seamed bottom, the seams of which are adapted to be attached to the seams along the inner surface of the garment and a pocket member with overlapping flaps extending from the bottom for receipt of an article therein.

Abstract: A flat cushion sized to cover the breast of the woman has an adhesive layer applied to one side thereof, while a protective cover is applied over the adhesive layer. When the protective cover is pulled off, the adhesive layer can be pressed against the inner surface of a woman's garment to allow an opposite side of the flat cushion to cover the breast of the woman.

Abstract: The clothing shield is intended to protect clothing against body stains, such as underarm stains, and generally comprises a liquid-pervious bodyside liner, a liquid-impervious outer cover, and an absorbent medium between the liner and outer cover. The exposed side of the outer cover has a masking surface thereon that visually masks the clothing shield through the article of clothing. A method is also provided for making the shield.

Abstract: A form fitting disposable garment shield and an automated method for making the shield from a coil of laminated material. The shield is comprised of a pair of identical crescent shaped panels joined together by a seam which is adjacent to a concave border of the shield. The outer facing surfaces of the panels are moisture absorbing and the inward facing surfaces, which confront each other, are non-absorbent. On the inward facing non-absorbent surfaces of the panels are pieces of adhesive tape with peelable outer coverings for attaching the shield to a garment. The method for making the shield comprises the steps of uncoiling, blanking, forming, heat bonding and trimming portions of the laminated strip in a continuous automated manner.

Abstract: A disposable perspiration shield generally for use with an upper torso garment utilizing a first layer of adsorbent tissue which lies next to a second layer of adsorbent material. A third layer of adsorbent swab material is protected on one side by the second layer and on another side by a fourth layer of adsorbent material. A fifth layer of water repellent material is placed adjacent the swab protecting layer and surrounded by a sixth layer of sound adsorbing material. The first through sixth layers of material form a unit which is adherent with respect to the torso garment.

Abstract: A perspiration absorbing pad capable of easily preventing clothes from being stained with perspiration. The pad includes a body made of a material which is thin, has softness, stretching properties and flexibility and is excellent in moisture absorbing properties, the body having sufficient dimensions to cover any portion of the clothes which is subject to a stain of perspiration, an active adhesive applied to one surface of the body, and a release paper covering the adhesive coated surface. The pad is usable as a disposable pad.

Abstract: A methof of manufacturing a two-wing one-piece dress-shielding element with two wings each composed of an absorbent layer adapted to lie against the body of a user and a moisture-impermeable layer adapted to lie against a dress, includes the steps of continuously supplying a web of material for forming at least one of the layers of the dress-shielding element, providing a plurality of working stations for performing a plurality of working steps for manufacturing the dress-shielding element, and displacing the web between the working stations so as to perform the working steps, whereby the web serves as transporting means for the dress-shielding elements to be manufactured from the web. A dress-shielding element includes a body part composed of a web material and having two wing portions connected with one another in a transition region, and a mass of superimposed web material provided in the transition region and deformed so as to form a common concave edge line for both wings of the dress-shielding element.
