Abstract
Abstract A fabricated sheet structure includes a sheet of fabric which is flexible in all directions and which is corrugated so that opposite surfaces thereof are both provided with alternate recesses and ribs. One of the surfaces constitutes a mold for a layer of latex which has a ribbed inner surface which is fitted in the recesses of one surface of the sheet of fabric and which has a smooth outer surface.

Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 4
Claim 1
Independent Claim
164 words
A fabricated sheet structure for use in covering portions of the anatomy, said structure comprising: a first fabric sheet which is flexible in all directions, said first fabric sheet having a corrugated configuration such that first and second opposite surfaces thereof are provided with alternate recesses and ribs; a latex layer having a first relatively smooth surface and a second surface having therein alternate ribs and recesses which are complementary to and in contiguous contact with said recesses and ribs, respectively, in said first surface of said first fabric sheet; a second fabric sheet is flexible in all directions, said second fabric sheet having first and second opposite relatively smooth surfaces, said first surface of said second fabric sheet being fixed to said smooth surface of said latex layer; and said second surface of said second fabric sheet comprising a first, relatively smooth surface of said structure, and said second surface of said first fabric sheet comprising a second, ribbed surface of said structure.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim
164 words
A fabricated sheet structure for use in covering portions of the anatomy, said structure comprising: a first fabric sheet which is flexible in all directions, said first fabric sheet having a corrugated configuration such that first and second opposite surfaces thereof are provided with alternate recesses and ribs; a latex layer having a first relatively smooth surface and a second surface having therein alternate ribs and recesses which are complementary to and in contiguous contact with said recesses and ribs, respectively, in said first surface of said first fabric sheet; a second fabric sheet is flexible in all directions, said second fabric sheet having first and second opposite relatively smooth surfaces, said first surface of said second fabric sheet being fixed to said smooth surface of said latex layer; and said second surface of said second fabric sheet comprising a first, relatively smooth surface of said structure, and said second surface of said first fabric sheet comprising a second, ribbed surface of said structure.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim
69 words
A structure as claimed in claim 1, wherein said structure is in the form of a tubular body having a relatively wide first end and a relatively narrow second end, said ribbed surface forming the inner surface of said tubular body, said ribs extending longitudinally of said tubular body, and the thickness of said latex layer increasing from said narrow end to said wide end of said tubular body.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim
32 words
A structure as claimed in claim 1, wherein said structure is in the form of a rectangular strip, said ribs extending in a direction transverse to the longitudinal dimension of said strip.
