embodiments or examples of the invention may be implemented in numerous ways , including as an apparatus , system , or process . a detailed description of one or more examples is provided below along with accompanying figures . the detailed description is provided in connection with such examples , but is not limited to any particular example . the scope is limited by the claims , but numerous alternatives , modifications , and equivalents are encompassed . numerous specific details are set forth in the following description in order to provide a thorough understanding . these details are provided for the purpose of example and the descriptions provided may be used for implementation according to the claims without some or all of these specific details . for the purpose of clarity , technical material that is known in the technical fields related to the examples has not been described in detail to avoid unnecessarily obscuring the description . a bib is described , including one or more flaps or panels (“ flaps ”) coupled together with a neck bridge or collar (“ neck bridge ”), each flap having a magnet or other fastener to secure one flap to another . in some examples , magnets may be placed within one or more interior pockets or spaces of each flap and , when placed adjacent to another magnet &# 39 ; s opposite pole , magnetic force causes the flaps to bind to each other , allowing a bib to be secured about the neck of a wearer . in other examples , multiple magnets may be placed to provide multiple points of contact and securing flaps to each other . further , a bib , such as those described herein , may be draped about the collar or neck region of a wearer , initiating placement from behind a wearer , resulting in placement of the flaps on the front or chest region of a wearer . in other examples , the described bibs may be varied in design , function , structure , or implementation and are not limited to the techniques described below . fig1 illustrates an exploded perspective view of an exemplary bib . here , bib 100 is shown in an exploded view with flaps 102 - 105 , magnets 106 - 112 , neck bridges 114 - 116 , outer surface 118 , reverse surface 120 , and fabric 122 . as shown here , outer surface 118 comprises flaps 102 - 103 and neck bridge 114 . in some examples , outer surface 118 and reverse surface 120 may be reversible . for example , when outer surface 118 is placed over magnets 106 - 112 and coupled to reverse surface 120 , bib 100 may be used in different configurations to provide up to four surfaces ( e . g ., flaps 102 - 105 ) to protect the wearer from coming into contact with unwanted material ( e . g ., food , liquids , and the like ). still further , bib 100 may be reversed entirely , allowing the use of the reverse surfaces of outer surface 100 and reverse surface 120 . further , reverse surface 120 includes flaps 104 - 105 and neck bridge 116 , and , as an example , is the “ back ” side of bib 100 when worn . as shown here , flaps 102 - 105 may be a substantially rounded shape . in other examples , flaps 102 - 105 may be implemented using a circular , square , rectangular , triangular , parabolic or other geometric shape or design . as shown here , flap 102 may be symmetrical with flap 103 and flap 104 may be symmetrical with flap 105 . in other examples , flap 102 may be asymmetrical with flap 103 and flap 104 may be asymmetrical with flap 105 . in still other examples , flaps 102 - 105 may be designed and implemented differently than as shown and described . as shown here , neck bridges 114 - 116 are implemented to connect , couple or attach flap 102 to flap 103 and flap 104 to flap 105 . neck bridges 114 - 116 may be separate components from flaps 102 - 105 , or may be integrated as one singular member . for example , flap 102 , flap 103 and neck bridge 114 may be formed from one piece of material , such as a piece of fabric . as another example , flap 102 , flap 103 and neck bridge 114 may be formed from separate materials and attached or coupled together by sewing , stitching , tying , knitting , knotting , gluing or other method of connection . in some examples , neck bridges 114 -

112 may be directly attached or coupled to outer surface 118 or reverse surface 120 ( as indicated by the dashed lines ) by sewing , stitching , tying , knitting , knotting , gluing or using any other type or method of connection , coupling , or adhesion . in some examples , magnets 106 - 112 may be placed between outer surface 118 and reverse surface 120 , enabling the magnets to remain protected from exposure from food or other materials that may come into contact with bib 100 . when washed , magnets 106 - 112 may be configured to provide a magnetically attractive force to couple one or more of flaps 102 - 105 to each other . further , the placement of magnets 106 - 112 may be varied and are not limited to the examples shown . for example , magnets 106 - 112 may be positioned at the upper or lower corners of each of flaps 102 - 105 . as another example , magnets 106 - 112 may be positioned in the center , along the outer , top , bottom , or inner edges of flaps 102 -

103 may be a substantially rectangular shape . in other examples , flaps 102 - 103 may be implemented using a circular , square , rectangular , triangular , parabolic or other geometric shape or design . in other examples , the above - described elements may be implemented differently and are not limited to the examples shown and described . fig1 a illustrates another view of an exemplary bib in an alternative configuration . here , bib 1200 may include flap 103 , magnets 106 - 112 and neck bridge 202 . in some examples , flap 103 may be implemented similarly or substantially similar in function and structure to flap 103 as shown and described in fig1 and fig2 a - 2b , magnets 106 - 112 may be implemented similarly or substantially similar in function and structure to magnets 106 - 112 as shown and described in fig1 and fig2 a - 2b and neck bridge 202 may be implemented similarly or substantially similar in function and structure to neck bridge 202 as shown and described in fig2 a - 2b . as shown here , bib 1200 is depicted in an engaged configuration , or its position when being used or worn by wearer . here , flaps 1202 - 1203 are shown as a substantially rectangular shape . further , flap 1203 is shown disposed in “ front ” of another flap ( e . g ., flap 1202 ) magnet 106 is mated with magnet 110 and magnet 108 is mated with magnet 112 . when worn , neck bridge 202 may be placed behind the neck of the wear , and flap 103 may be wrapped around the neck of the wearer until bib 1200 is secured upon the upper torso of the wearer . in other examples , bib 1200 and the above - described elements may be implemented differently and are not limited to the examples shown and described . fig1 b illustrates another view of an exemplary bib in another alternative configuration . here , bib 1201 may include flap 1202 , magnets 106 - 112 and neck bridge 202 . in some examples , flap 1202 may be implemented similarly or substantially similar in function and structure to flap 1202 as shown and described in fig1 and fig2 a - 2b , magnets 106 - 112 may be implemented similarly or substantially similar in function and structure to magnets 106 - 112 as shown and described in fig1 and fig2 a - 2b and neck bridge 202 may be implemented similarly or substantially similar in function and structure to neck bridge 202 as shown and described in fig2 a - 2b . as shown here , bib 1201 is depicted in an alternative engaged configuration , or its position when being used or worn by wearer . here , flap 1202 is shown in “ front ,” magnet 106 is mated with magnet 110 and magnet 108 is mated with magnet 112 . in other examples , bib 1201 and the above - described elements may be implemented differently and are not limited to the examples shown and described . as set forth above , measurements , dimensions , or other specifications may be varied and are not limited to those previously described . variations in sizes , shapes , and processes may also be implemented and the above - described examples are also not intended to be limiting . the foregoing examples have been described in some detail for purposes of clarity of understanding , but are not limited to the details provided . there are many alternative ways and techniques for implementation . the disclosed examples are illustrative and not restrictive .
a bib is described that includes multiple flaps , each flap providing a surface to prevent soiling of clothing . the flaps are secured to one another through multiple fastening mechanisms , which may include one or more magnets . a neck bridge portion couples the plurality of flaps to one another .
