Abstract
An invertible multi-layer moisture management fabric pad has a top layer, a bottom layer, and a plurality of overlying moisture-absorbent intermediate layers located between the top and bottom layers. The bottom layer is joined to the top layer along a perimeter of the fabric pad. The moisture-absorbent intermediate layers are adapted for receiving and dispersing moisture entering the fabric pad. The pad perimeter defines an access opening for accessing an inside of the fabric pad. A pull strap is located inside the fabric pad, and is adapted for being grasped by a user reaching through the access opening formed with the perimeter. The pull strap is pulled back through the access opening to invert the fabric pad for laundering.
Claims20
An invertible multi-layer moisture management fabric pad, comprising:
- a top layer;
- a bottom layer joined to said top layer along a perimeter of said fabric pad;
- a plurality of overlying moisture-absorbent intermediate layers located between said top and bottom layers, and adapted for receiving and dispersing moisture entering said fabric pad;
- said perimeter defining an access opening for accessing an inside of said fabric pad;
- and
- a pull strap located inside said fabric pad, and adapted for being grasped by a user reaching through the access opening formed with said perimeter, whereby said pull strap is pulled back through the access opening to invert said fabric pad for laundering.
An invertible multi-layer moisture management fabric pad, comprising:
- a top layer;
- a bottom layer joined to said top layer along a perimeter of said fabric pad;
- a plurality of overlying moisture-absorbent intermediate layers located between said top and bottom layers, and adapted for receiving and dispersing moisture entering said fabric pad;
- said perimeter defining an opening for accessing an inside of said fabric pad;
- and
- a first of said intermediate layers defining first and second edge portions attached adjacent said perimeter, and an arcuate portion extending between said attached edge portions and unattached to adjacent layers, such that upon inverting said fabric pad, said unattached arcuate portion forms a vent adapted to promote fluid circulation between said top and bottom layers during laundering.
