Abstract:
A multiple sweatband system comprising, in combination:a headband including a planar configuration with a periphery defined by an elongated linear top edge, a pair of short linear side edges and a bottom edge having a central wide arcuate extent and a pair of tight arcuate extents flanking the central wide arcuate extent, the headband including an inner terry cloth layer with a serpentinely configured heating coil mounted therein and connected to a battery pack mounted on an outer surface of the headband adjacent to a first end thereof and an elastomeric outer layer which is defined by an inner face and all outer face which define an interior space for housing a cold pack, wherein access to the interior space of the outer layer is gained through a laterally extending slit formed in the outer layer which is selectively sealed by way of hook and pile fasteners, the headband further including a radio unit mounted on the outer layer adjacent to a second end thereof, a pair of hook and pile fasteners each mounted to one of the ends of the headband for securing the headband about a head of a user such that the central wide arcuate extent depends over a forehead of the user and the tight arcuate extents depending over ears of the user, and a flexible strap having a pair of ends coupled to lower portions of the tight arcuate extents of the headband for encompassing a chin of the user; andat least one wristband with a planar configuration having a periphery defined by an elongated linear top edge, a pair of short side edges and an elongated linear bottom edge, the wristband including an outer elastomeric layer and an inner terry cloth layer, the inner terry cloth layer having a serpentinely configured heating coil mounted therein and connected to a battery pack mounted to an outer surface of the wristband, the elastomeric outer layer being defined by an inner face and an outer face, the outer layer defining an interior space for housing a cold pack, wherein access to the interior space of the outer layer is gained through a vertical slit formed in the outer layer which is selectively sealed by way of hook and pile fasteners, the wristband including a pair of hook and pile fasteners each mounted to one of the ends of the wristband for securing the wristband about a wrist of the user, an illuminated digital clock mounted on the outer face of the outer layer of the wristband and connected to the battery for displaying a current time, a sleeve longitudinally mounted on the outer face of the outer layer of the wristband with an opening for releasably receiving a clip of a pager and a discrete pocket formed on the outer face of the outer layer of the wristband which is selectively sealed by way of hook and pile fasteners.
