Identification bracelets for kids

Abstract

An adjustable identification bracelet or bracelet to be worn by children age 2-12 yrs. who enters public areas such as amusement parks, sports stadiums, airports, beaches, shopping malls etc., all places where children are at the risk of being involuntarily separated from parents or guardians. The bracelet, which allows name, address, parents phone and/or cell-phone numbers to be ball pen printed on the water repellent writing space on the back, will enable immediate identification of the child and thereby reunite child and parents in the easiest and quickest possible way. The bracelet, which is made of Polyurethane (non-toxic), is manufactured in one piece with a locking construction that releases immediately under a certain amount of tension that could otherwise cause injury to the child. The bracelet, which is reusable, is designed with a wide area in the front where company-logos, drawings and figures can be printed/impressed.

1 . What I claim as my invention is an identification bracelet for children with a unique locking mechanism. 
 The bracelet, which is made of Polyurethane (no PVC material is used), is manufactured in one piece with a locking construction that immediately releases under a certain amount of tension that could otherwise cause injury to the child, however the material ensures that the identification bracelet does not break nor will the data be destroyed. This is prevented by the mechanism of the locking construction, which consists of two lines each with eight points and rounded spaces in between the points. When the points are inserted in the triangular opening, which is smooth-edged on the inside, and stretched further on to the three rectangular openings, that fastens the bracelet, the points will lock in the triangular opening thus functioning like barbs. The rounded spaces and the smooth-edged opening will however result in an easy release when the bracelet is subjected to a certain amount of tension, thus leaving the identification bracelet intact. The end of the bracelet is inserted through the smooth-edged sides of the triangular opening and further on to one of the three rectangular openings/straps each one able to hold the end of the bracelet in place and thereby preventing an untimely release whereby the bracelet could slide off the wrist of the child.    
   
   
       2 . What I claim as my invention is an identification bracelet for children that allow companies and organizations to use the front of the identification bracelet for commercial/promotional purposes. 
 The bracelet provides companies and organizations with a new, inexpensive marketing/promotional tool whereby e.g. company logos, slogans, messages, drawings or figures identified with the company or the organization is advertised amongst children and parents, where the former may very well regard the identification bracelet as a collectors item and the latter may view the bracelet as a useful and indispensable ready-at-hand gadget that also provides the company or organization with a friendly and caring image.    
   
   
       3 . What I claim as my invention is an identification bracelet for children that contains the contact information on the inside of the bracelet as supposed to on the top or front of the bracelet.
