m m m A|T 3 W h w I QM W/ M Li Q. 0 HHMHMH HIW HL W y W R ATTORNEYS R. M. WOLFE CONVERTIBLE NECK SCARF' AND HEAD COVERING Filed Aug. 23, 1954 71 .7.
April 17, 1956 United States Patent O CONVERTIBLE NECK SCARF AND HEAD COVERING Raymond M. Wolfe, Louisville, Ky. Application August 23, 1954, Serial No. 451,379 1 Claim. (Cl. 2-207) The invention relates to a scarf or neckpiece adapted for conversion into a protective head covering.
More specifically, this invention pertains to a scarf which may be converted into a head and ear protecting article of clothing.
One of the primary objects of this invention is to provide a scarf of the type referred to above having means incorporated therein for converting the scarft into a head scarf.
A further object of this invention is to provide a neck and head scarf which may be worn without disturbing the coiffure.
Another object of this invention is to provide a combined neck and head scarf which is non-complex in construction and assembly, and inexpensive to manufacture.
Other and further objects and advantages of the present invention will become more apparent from a consideration of the following specification when read in the light of the annexed drawing, in which- Figure l is a side elevation of the scarf when used as a head and ear protecting device.
Figure 2 is a bottom plan view of a scarf of the type described, constructed in accordance with the teachings of this invention.
Figure 3 is a cross-sectional view taken on the horizontal plane of line 3-3 of Figure 2, looking in the direction of the arrows.
Figure 4 is a detail cross-sectional view disclosing means for securing the adjacent edges of the scarf material together.
Figure 5 is an enlarged, fragmentary, detail cross-sectional view taken on the vertical plane of line 55 of Figure 2, looking in the direction of the arrows, and i1- lustrating the open ends of the convertible scarf.
Referring now more specifically to the drawings, reference numeral designates, in general, a scarf constructed in accordance with this invention. The scarf is preferably formed of wool, though other suitable materials may be employed.
The scarf 10 is constructed of a single blank of material having an elongated substantially rectangular configuration. The blank is folded longitudinally along lines spaced inwardly substantially one-quarter of its width from each side thereof to form a front panel 12 and a pair of overlapping back panels 14.
Each of the back panels 14 are provided with centrally positioned confronting and longitudinally extending hem portions 16 formed by reverting the marginal edges 18 thereof and securing the same by a line of stitches 20 to form an elongated narrow opening 22 which is normally positioned in juxtaposed relation relative to the medial portions of the front panel, as shown in the drawing.
A line of stitches 24 extend in opposite directions from each end of the opening 22 to the opposite ends of the scarf 10 to secure the adjacent remainder of the marginal edges 18a together. Thereafter the edges 18a are folded to one or the other side of the line of stitching.
This garment may be worn as a conventional scarf, but if protection of the head and ears of the wearer is desired, the wearer merely opens the opening and draws the scarf downwardly over his head. Those portions of the scarf immediately adjacent the opening 22 engage against the back and top of the head, as shown in Figure 1, and the portions of the scarf depending from opposite ends of the opening are drawn across the ears and their respective free ends knotted at 30 below the chin of the wearer.
Having described and illustrated one embodiment of this invention, it will be understood that the same is offered merely by way of example and that the invention is to be limited only by the scope of the following claim.
What is claimed is:
A hollow convertible neck scarf and head covering formed of fabric material, said convertible scarf and head covering comprising an elongated substantially rectangular front panel having a pair of integrally formed longitudinally extending back panels on one side thereof and substantially parallel thereto, said back panels having confronting adjacent edges, a first stitching securing said edges together, said first stitching extending inwardly from each end of said scarf and terminating at a pair of spaced points intermediate said ends, said confronting edges of said back panels between said pair of spaced points being inwardly reverted, a second stitching securing said reverted edges in reverted position, said first stitching forming an elongated substantially rectangular member open throughout its length and having opposed open ends, and said second stitching forming a restricted longitudinally extending slot communicating with the interior of said member to engage the head of the wearer, the edges of said slot normally being in juxtaposed relation relative to the medial portions of said front panel.
