Abstract: Examples of a nursing cover are described, including a cover having a top edge and a stiffener comprised of a shape memory material having a material memory coupled to the cover using a securing mechanism to prevent the stiffener from rotating. In one embodiment, the material memory causes the stiffener to assume a pre-determined shape, to temporarily deform without breaking the stiffener when force is applied to the stiffener, and to reassume the pre-determined shape. In one embodiment, an end of the stiffener provides a substantially smooth surface to prevent abrasion.

Abstract: Examples of a nursing cover are described, including a sheet having a top edge, a bottom edge, and a first side edge and a second side edge, wherein a strap is coupled to the top edge of the sheet and a plurality of D-rings are coupled using another strap to the top edge of the sheet, and a stiffener stitched into the top edge of the sheet and coupled to the sheet using a stitch configured to prevent the stiffener from rotating within a stiffener pocket, the stiffener having a first end cap disposed on a first end of the stiffener and a second end cap disposed on a second end of the stiffener, wherein the stiffener, when worn, bows outward to provide a viewing area, the stiffener having a substantially rectangular cross-sectional shape wherein the first end cap and the second end cap each comprise a substantially rectangular cavity that is configured to receive the first end and the second end of the stiffener, respectively, wherein the stiffener has a material memory associated with a pre-determined shape, t

Abstract: A nursing cover including a sheet, where a stiffener pocket, a first strap and a second strap are disposed along a top edge of the sheet, the first strap and the second strap being configured to detachably couple together, and a stiffener housed within the stiffener pocket, configured to bow outward from the top edge of the sheet. The stiffener having a shape memory material having a material memory associated with a pre-determined shape and assuming the pre-determined shape during a resting state. When a force is applied, the stiffener is configured to temporarily deform and when the force is removed, the stiffener reassumes the pre-determined shape. The stiffener has a first end cap formed at a first end and a second end cap formed at a second end, where the stiffener, the first end cap and the second end cap are collectively a single member.

Abstract: A nursing cover including a sheet with a stiffener pocket, a first strap, and a second strap disposed along the top edge of the sheet. The first strap and second strap are configured to detachably couple together. A stiffener comprised of a shape memory material comprising a material memory is housed within the stiffener pocket. The stiffener has a first end and a second end being formed as part of the stiffener. The first end and the second end have a substantially smooth surface to prevent abrading the stiffener pocket. The material memory in the stiffener assumes a pre-determined shape when force is not applied to the stiffener, temporarily deforms without breaking the stiffener when force is applied to the stiffener, and reassumes the pre-determined shape when force is removed from the stiffener.
