ABSTRACT:
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
The present invention relates to a tension relieving towel and method of making and more particularly pertains to relieving tension in selected body areas.
The use of neck support devices is known in the prior art. More specifically, neck support devices heretofore devised and utilized for the purpose of supporting the neck are known to consist basically of familiar, expected and obvious structural configurations, notwithstanding the myriad of designs encompassed by the crowded prior art which have been developed for the fulfillment of countless objectives and requirements.
By way of example, U.S. Pat. No. 4,819,622 to Taylor discloses a neck support collar comprised of folded cloth in the form of a multi-ply pad with Velcro fasteners. U.S. Pat. No. 4,966,136 to Bates discloses a pad covered with fabric to provide orthopedic support to a user. U.S. Pat. No. 5,060,661 to Howard discloses a neck and head support capable of being inflated.
While these devices fulfill their respective, particular objective and requirements, the aforementioned patents do not describe a tension relieving towel and method of making for relieving tension in selected body areas.
In this respect, the tension relieving towel and method of making according to the present invention substantially departs from the conventional concepts and designs of the prior art, and in doing so provides an apparatus primarily developed for the purpose of relieving tension in selected body areas.
Therefore, it can be appreciated that there exists a continuing need for a new and improved tension relieving towel and method of making which can be used for relieving tension in selected body areas. In this regard, the present invention substantially fulfills this need.
SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION
In the view of the foregoing disadvantages inherent in the known types of neck support devices now present in the prior art, the present invention provides an improved tension relieving towel and method of making. As such, the general purpose of the present invention, which will be described subsequently in greater detail, is to provide a new and improved tension relieving towel and method of making which has all the advantages of the prior art and none of the disadvantages.
To attain this, the present invention essentially comprises a rectangular towel having opposed long upper and lower edges and opposed short right and left edges. The towel further includes opposed upper right and left corners and opposed lower right and left corners. The rectangular towel is then laid on a flat recipient surface. Next, fold the upper right and left corners downwardly whereby the upper edge is folded in half within the towel whereby an upper peak is formed. Next, fold the upper peak downwardly. Next, roll the upper peak downwardly about eight revolutions to form a round roll. Next, fold the right side of the towel inwardly. Next, roll the right side of the towel inwardly until meeting the left side to form a seam whereby the round roll forms a cap with a tapered portion extending downwardly therefrom. Lastly, stitch the seam together in a spaced relationship.
There has thus been outlined, rather broadly, the more important features of the invention in order that the detailed description thereof that follows may be better understood, and in order that the present contribution to the art may be better appreciated. There are, of course, additional features of the invention that will be described hereinafter and which will form the subject matter of the claims appended hereto.
In this respect, before explaining at least one embodiment of the invention in detail, it is to be understood that the invention is not limited in its application to the details of construction and to the arrangements of the components set forth in the following description or illustrated in the drawings. The invention is capable of other embodiments and of being practiced and carried out in various ways. Also, it is to be understood that the phraseology and terminology employed herein are for the purpose of description and should not be regarded as limiting.
As such, those skilled in the art will appreciate that the conception, upon which this disclosure is based, may readily be utilized as a basis for the designing of other structures, methods and systems for carrying out the several purposes of the present invention. It is important, therefore, that the claims be regarded as including such equivalent constructions insofar as they do not depart from the spirit and scope of the present invention.
It is therefore an object of the present invention to provide a new and improved tension relieving towel and method of making which has all the advantages of the prior art neck support devices and none of the disadvantages.
It is another object of the present invention to provide a new and improved tension relieving towel and method of making which may be easily and efficiently manufactured and marketed.
It is a further object of the present invention to provide a new and improved tension relieving towel and method of making which is of durable and reliable construction.
An even further object of the present invention is to provide a new and improved tension relieving towel and method of making which is susceptible of a low cost of manufacture with regard to both materials and labor, and which accordingly is then susceptible of low prices of sale to the consuming public, thereby making such a tension relieving towel and method of making economically available to the buying public.
Even still another object of the present invention is to provide a new and improved tension relieving towel and method of making for relieving tension in selected body areas.
Lastly, it is an object of the present invention to provide a new and improved tension relieving towel and method of making including a rectangular towel having opposed long upper and lower edges and opposed short right and left edges. The towel further includes opposed upper right and left corners and opposed lower right and left corners. The rectangular towel is then laid on a flat recipient surface. Next, fold the upper right and left corners downwardly whereby the upper edge is folded in half within the towel whereby an upper peak is formed. Next, fold the upper peak downwardly. Next, roll the upper peak downwardly about eight revolutions to form a round roll. Next, fold the right side of the towel inwardly. Next, roll the right side of the towel inwardly until meeting the left side to form a seam whereby the round roll forms a cap with a tapered portion extending downwardly therefrom. Lastly, stitch the seam together in a spaced relationship.
These together with other objects of the invention, along with the various features of novelty which characterize the invention, are pointed out with particularity in the claims annexed to and forming a part of this disclosure. For a better understanding of the invention, its operating advantages and the specific objects attained by its uses, reference should be had to the accompanying drawings and descriptive matter in which there is illustrated preferred embodiments of the invention.
