Patent number: 11844379Abstract: The embarrassment of passing gas in public is ubiquitous. One solution is to wear a filter underwear that is generally constructed with a single ply of underwear side panels that are separated by an activated carbon center panel. The activated carbon center panel is attached to an elastic waistband at the underwear back and where the activated carbon center panel traverses between two leg openings to the waistband at the underwear front. The center panel is constructed with a five-ply activated carbon fabric that is sandwiched between cotton fabric, which is sandwiched between bamboo fabric. The five-ply center panel is greater than 1 mm thick to provide filtering capabilities to sufficiently reduce the odor of flatulence to an acceptable level that is not readily detected by a person close by.Type: GrantFiled: March 17, 2023Date of Patent: December 19, 2023Assignee: Stitches Medical, Inc.Inventors: Collin White, Robert White

Patent number: 11839249Abstract: A two-layer hood including an outer hood layer and a detachable absorbent inner hood layer formed to detachably line an inner surface of the two-layer hood. The absorbent inner hood layer is made of absorbent material. Both layers of the two-layer hood can be worn over wearer's head or pulled back like a traditional hooded garment, or “hoodie.” However, the outer hood layer of the two-layer hood can also be separately pulled back such that only the absorbent inner hood layer remains on the wearer's head. In this way perspiration can be absorbed by the absorbent inner hood layer while the outer hood layer remains essentially “sweat free.” In addition, the absorbent inner hood layer can be removed and used as a supplementary towel and/or washed separately from the parent garment.Type: GrantFiled: August 27, 2021Date of Patent: December 12, 2023Inventor: Jonie Heberlein

Patent number: 11785999Abstract: Aspects herein are directed to garments that incorporate adaptive stand-off structures in the form of fluid-filled bladders that transition from a first shape to a second shape when exposed to moisture in the form of, for example, perspiration.
