Undergarment Positioner Apparatus

Abstract

An undergarment positioner apparatus for assistance putting on undergarments includes a ring body having an outer side, an inner side, a first end, and a second end. The ring body is semi-rigid and elastically bendable into a circular position with the first end overlapping the second end. A first engagement member is coupled to the outer side of the ring body adjacent the first end and a second engagement member is coupled to the inner side of the ring body adjacent the second end. The first and second engagement members are selectively engageable to maintain the ring body in the circular position. A waistband of the undergarment is folded around the ring body in the circular position before being stepped into.

I claim: 
     
         1 . An undergarment positioner apparatus comprising:
 a ring body having an outer side, an inner side, a first end, and a second end, the ring body being semi-rigid and elastically bendable into a circular position with the first end overlapping the second end;   a first engagement member coupled to the ring body, the first engagement member being coupled to the outer side adjacent the first end; and   a second engagement member coupled to the ring body, the second engagement member being coupled to the inner side adjacent the second end, the first and second engagement members being selectively engageable to maintain the ring body in the circular position.   
     
     
         2 . The undergarment positioner apparatus of  claim 1  further comprising the first engagement member extending from adjacent the first end to beyond a midpoint of the ring body; the second engagement member extending from adjacent the second end to beyond the midpoint of the ring body. 
     
     
         3 . The undergarment positioner apparatus of  claim 1  further comprising the first end and the second end being semicircular. 
     
     
         4 . The undergarment positioner apparatus of  claim 1  further comprising an upper edge and a lower edge of the ring body being rounded. 
     
     
         5 . The undergarment positioner apparatus of  claim 1  further comprising the ring body having an inner core and an outer shell continuously coupled around the inner core. 
     
     
         6 . The undergarment positioner apparatus of  claim 5  further comprising the inner core being semi-rigid and elastically bendable into the circular position, the outer shell conforming to the shape of the inner core. 
     
     
         7 . The undergarment positioner apparatus of  claim 1  further comprising a length of the ring body being equal to at least 30 times a width of the ring body. 
     
     
         8 . The undergarment positioner apparatus of  claim 1  further comprising the width of the ring body being equal to at least 20 times a thickness of the ring body. 
     
     
         9 . An undergarment positioner apparatus comprising:
 a ring body having an outer side, an inner side, a first end, and a second end, the first end and the second end being semicircular, an upper edge and a lower edge of the ring body being rounded, the ring body having an inner core and an outer shell continuously coupled around the inner core, the inner core being semi-rigid and elastically bendable into a circular position with the first end overlapping the second end, the outer shell conforming to the shape of the inner core;   a first engagement member coupled to the ring body, the first engagement member being coupled to the outer side adjacent the first end, the first engagement member extending from adjacent the first end to beyond a midpoint of the ring body; and   a second engagement member coupled to the ring body, the second engagement member being coupled to the inner side adjacent the second end, the second engagement member extending from adjacent the second end to beyond the midpoint of the ring body, the first and second engagement members being selectively engageable to maintain the ring body in the circular position.   
     
     
         10 . The undergarment positioner apparatus of  claim 9  further comprising a length of the ring body being equal to at least 30 times a width of the ring body. 
     
     
         11 . The undergarment positioner apparatus of  claim 9  further comprising the width of the ring body being equal to at least 20 times a thickness of the ring body.
