ABSTRACT:
Extending into the open end of a cylindrical container is the stem of an earplug inserter that has an enlarged portion outside of the container forming a shoulder spaced from the open end of the container. Enclosing the stem between it and the encircling side wall of the container is a thin sound-attenuating mat of fibers, the marginal portion of which extends out of the container and flares outwardly across the inserter shoulder. This mat forms an earplug that is removable with the inserter from the container to permit insertion of the earplug in an ear by means of the inserter, which is then withdrawn from the plug. The earplug is made by placing a flat fibrous mat against the open end of the container and then pushing it into the container by means of the inserter stem.
