Ankle Monitor Guard (AMG)

Abstract

The ankle monitor guard, or AMG, is a neoprene and rayon sleeve that is worn over a personal ankle monitor. The purpose of the guard is to deter an incident of tampering from being reported should an ankle monitor be temporarily submerged in water. The guard also serves to help muffle the noise emitted by these devices. The guard also serves a discretionary purpose by concealing the underlying device allowing the user to more freely wear clothing that exposes the ankle in public. It is the intent of this invention to provide the user with more freedom of choices with regards to activities performed, clothing worn, and therefore know that they have options gained by the use of the ankle monitor guard.

1 . The ankle monitor guard allows an ankle monitor to be temporarily submerged underwater without losing functionality by waterproofing the device in order for it to maintain contact with the skin of the wearer. 
     
     
         2 . The ankle monitor guard dampens and muffles the noise that an ankle monitor may emit, at the same time protecting against breakage from impact with other objects. 
     
     
         3 . The ankle monitor guard conceals the ankle monitor device for the wearers' personal discretion.
