Arm Covering Assembly

Abstract

An arm covering assembly includes a shield that is selectively worn on a left forearm of a vehicle driver. The shield is comprised of a reflective material to protect the left forearm from sunburn when a vehicle is being driven. A pad is coupled to the shield and the pad abuts the left forearm when the shield is worn. The pad is comprised of a resiliently compressible material to enhance comfort of the shield. A plurality of first mating members is provided and each of the first mating members is coupled to the shield. A plurality of second mating members is provided and each of the second mating members is coupled to the shield. Each of the second mating members is selectively matable to an associated first mating member. Thus, each of the first and second mating members is selectively wrapped around the left forearm to retain the shield on the left forearm.

I claim: 
     
         1 . An arm covering assembly being configured to protect an arm from sunburn, said assembly comprising:
 a shield being configured to be worn on a forearm of a vehicle driver, said shield being comprised of a reflective material wherein said shield is configured to protect the forearm from sunburn when a vehicle is being driven;   a pad being coupled to said shield wherein said pad is configured to abut the forearm when said shield is worn, said pad being comprised of a resiliently compressible material wherein said pad is configured to enhance comfort of said shield;   a plurality of first mating members, each of said first mating members being coupled to said shield; and   a plurality of second mating members, each of said second mating members being coupled to said shield, each of said second mating members being selectively matable to an associated first mating member wherein each of said first and second mating members is configured to be wrapped around the forearm to retain said shield on the forearm.   
     
     
         2 . The assembly according to  claim 1 , wherein said shield has a first surface, a second surface and a peripheral edge extending therebetween, said peripheral edge having a front side, a back side, a first lateral side and a second lateral side, said front side being concavely arcuate between said first and second lateral sides wherein said front side is configured to extend along a top side of a hand when said shield is worn. 
     
     
         3 . The assembly according to  claim 2 , wherein each of said first and second lateral sides curves inwardly between said front side and said back side to define a curve, said curve corresponding to said first and second lateral sides being positioned closer to said front side than said back side wherein said curve corresponding to said first and second lateral sides is configured to be aligned with a wrist when said shield is worn thereby inhibiting said shield from frictionally engaging the wrist. 
     
     
         4 . The assembly according to  claim 2 , wherein each of said first and second surfaces being concavely arcuate between said first and second lateral sides wherein said shield is configured to conform to a curvature of the forearm when said shield is worn. 
     
     
         5 . The assembly according to  claim 2 , wherein said pad has a primary surface and a secondary surface, said primary surface being coupled to said first surface of said shield, said pad completely covering said first surface, said secondary surface being configured to rest on the forearm when said shield is worn. 
     
     
         6 . The assembly according to  claim 5 , wherein each of said first mating members is coupled to said secondary surface of said pad, each of said first mating members extending outwardly from said first lateral side of said shield, each of said first mating members having a distal end with respect to said first lateral side, said first mating members being spaced apart from each other and being distributed along said second lateral side. 
     
     
         7 . The assembly according to  claim 6 , wherein each of said second mating members is coupled to said secondary surface of said pad, each of said second mating members extending outwardly from said second lateral side of said shield, each of said second mating members having a distal end with respect to said second lateral side, said second mating members being spaced apart from each other and being distributed along said second lateral side, each of said second mating members being aligned with an associated one of said first mating members. 
     
     
         8 . An arm covering assembly being configured to protect an arm from sunburn, said assembly comprising:
 a shield being configured to be worn on a forearm of a vehicle driver, said shield being comprised of a reflective material wherein said shield is configured to protect the forearm from sunburn when a vehicle is being driven, said shield having a first surface, a second surface and a peripheral edge extending therebetween, said peripheral edge having a front side, a back side, a first lateral side and a second lateral side, said front side being concavely arcuate between said first and second lateral sides wherein said front side is configured to extend along a top side of a hand when said shield is worn, each of said first and second lateral sides curving inwardly between said front side and said back side to define a curve, said curve corresponding to said first and second lateral sides being positioned closer to said front side than said back side wherein said curve corresponding to said first and second lateral sides is configured to be aligned with a wrist when said shield is worn thereby inhibiting said shield from frictionally engaging the wrist, each of said first and second surfaces being concavely arcuate between said first and second lateral sides wherein said shield is configured to conform to a curvature of the forearm when said shield is worn;   a pad being coupled to said shield wherein said pad is configured to abut the forearm when said shield is worn, said pad being comprised of a resiliently compressible material wherein said pad is configured to enhance comfort of said shield, said pad having a primary surface and a secondary surface, said primary surface being coupled to said first surface of said shield, said pad completely covering said first surface, said secondary surface being configured to rest on the forearm when said shield is worn; and   a plurality of first mating members, each of said first mating members being coupled to said shield, each of said first mating members being coupled to said secondary surface of said pad, each of said first mating members extending outwardly from said first lateral side of said shield, each of said first mating members having a distal end with respect to said first lateral side, said first mating members being spaced apart from each other and being distributed along said second lateral side; and   a plurality of second mating members, each of said second mating members being coupled to said shield, each of said second mating members being coupled to said secondary surface of said pad, each of said second mating members extending outwardly from said second lateral side of said shield, each of said second mating members having a distal end with respect to said second lateral side, said second mating members being spaced apart from each other and being distributed along said second lateral side, each of said second mating members being aligned with an associated one of said first mating members, each of said second mating members being selectively matable to said associated first mating member wherein each of said first and second mating members is configured to be wrapped around the forearm to retain said shield on the forearm.
