Abdominal binder stretcher

Year	Description
1994	Invention patented by Roland F. Jochim and Dorothy M. Jochim on July 17th, 1994. Abstract: An abdominal binder stretcher comprising, in combination, a pair of rigid planar members having coplanar upper edges and coplanar lower edges with parallel exterior and interior edges. The planar members have front faces and rear faces. A pair of hinges couple together the interior edges of the planar members for pivoting about the axis of the hinges. A plurality of nails extend at right angles from the front surfaces of the planar members. The nail are in vertical lines adjacent to the exterior edges of the planar members. A pair of elongated support bars have a height essentially equal to the height of the planar members with exterior edges alignable with the exterior edges of the planar members and interior edges extending to an intermediate extent of the planar members and adapted to cover the nails. A pair of apertures extend through each elongated support bar and its associated planar member. Four bolts extend through the apertures of the planar members and elongated support bars with wing nuts to hold the elongated support bars adjacent to the planar members to ensure the retention of the edges of an abdominal binder received on the nails.
