Farts that don't stink! Under-Ease are airtight and filters the smell


http://domsweirdnews.blogspot.com/2007/01/anti-fart-pants.html

A US underwear company have invented special pants to save the embarrassment of flatulence sufferers. The pants have a built in filter and airtight fit to ensure the elimination of nasty odours.

Makers Under-Tec say the "gas eaters", officially called Under-Ease, are no joke but a "serious product that serves a purpose". They say the pants "relieve the pain without the shame" and "improve social confidence".

The pants are designed to be airtight thanks to elastic around the waistline and legs. The "core technology" of the product is a pocket with a replaceable filter inside.

The multi-layered filter is made with the two outer layers of wool felt, two layers of non-woven polypropylene and spun glass materials. In the center of the filter is a single layer of activated carbon.

Inventors have found the filter cuts bad odours.

2. Shame that they don't make them for Dogs. My Golden Retriever can clear a room in 10 seconds.

3. My invention takes a different approach
It's simply is valve you 'insert' which keeps the airflow clear and allows timely venting throughout the day to prevent such sudden impact.

The custom versions can be fitted with electronic tone generators, so you could fart "God Save the Queen" if so desired.

4. Pfffft. My invention allows excess gas to be burnt off in a safe manner.
Cuts down on heating bills and makes for great conversation at parties.

I used Oil Field technology in my invention!

7. I think the inventor's wife has Crohn's disease
This sounds really familiar. An interviewer asked him if the underwear takes care of the sounds associated with Crohn's, and he remarked, "No, it's not a muffler."

17. I think he was on "American Inventor" and as someone who has ulcerative colitis I
really felt bad about the way the judges dissed his idea. I absolutely knew there was a medical market for this.

Glad to see he has finally gotten somewhere with it. :)

Good one.

"Jim, did you crap yourself? Looks like you are carrying a load down there."
"Hahaha, no Mike, I just suffer from amazingly powerful and horrendously bad gas, that's all Mike."
