Patent ID: 7356849

Claim:
A no-slip elbow pad comprising: a padding element having an inner lining operable to engage an arm of a user, at least two edges and an outer lining; at least one band connected to said at least two edges and overlaying said inner lining of said padding element and operable to allow the arm of the user to be received between said at least one band and said inner lining of said padding element; at least one friction element coupled to said inner lining of said padding element, wherein said at least one friction element and said inner lining define different coefficients of friction such that said at least one friction element defines a greater coefficient of friction than said inner lining and is thereby more operable to minimize movement of said elbow pad on the arm of the user than said inner lining; and a border guard at least partially encircling a border of said friction element for attachment to said inner lining, said border guard for protecting said at least one friction element against tearing from said inner lining.
