" E STATS JOHN A. SEELY, OFNEW YORK, N. Y.
cnr.
Patented Nov. 5, 1912.
1912. Serial No. 699,704.
To all 'whom t may concern.:
Be it known that I, JOHN A. SEELY, acitizen of the United States, and resident of the borough of Bronx, county of lVestchester, city and State of New York, have invented certain new and useful Improve- Another object of the invention is to form a paper cap in such manner that it will be permanently elastic so that it will contract and grip the head of the wearer and be thereby securely held in place.
Another object of the invention is to provide an expansible or extensible top for the cap which will permit of the expansion of the body part of t-he cap, so that the entire cap will maintain its proper relative size.
Another object of the invention is to provide a paper tassel or ornament for the cap and to secure said ornament to the middle of the top of the cap by a suitable holding means.
In the drawings, Figure 1 is a perspective view of the cap; Fig. 2 a longitudinal sectional view thereof; Fig. 3 a detail horizontal sectional view of a portion of the body of the cap on the line III-HI of Fig. 2; and Fig. l a similar view of the top of the cap on the line 'IV-IV of Fig. 1.
Referring to the various parts by numerals, 1 designates the body of the cap which tapers upwardly slightly and is formed of a doubled or folded sheet of iinely corrugated or indented paper the fold being arranged at the lower edge 2 of the cap so that it is a nished edge and is strong and Vdurable and not likely to become broken or torn. The corrugations or indentations run substantially vertically of the body of the cap so that the said cap may be expanded horizontally and its diameter thereby increased. By means of this arrangement and construction, the cap may be made of a standard size and then expanded to t the wearers head. The paper when extended tends to return to its normal contracted condition, thereby giving to the body of the cap considerable resiliency. This will cause the cap to closely hug the head of the wearer.
The top 3 of the cap is formed of two thicknesses of thin paper corrugated entirely across the cap so that the upper end of the cap may be expanded in a direction at right angles to the corrugations to increase its diameter and to thereby maintain its relative size and proportion with respect to the lower end of the cap. The top of the cap is convex on its outer surface to give it a pleasing rounded dome-like appearance and the lower edge of this top portion is iitted outside of the upper edge of the body portion of the cap, as shown clearly in Fig. 2, the two overlapping edges being sef curely glued or otherwise secured together.
In the center of the top part of the cap is formed an aperture 4t which is reinforced within the cap by an eyelet or washer 5. Extending through this aperture or washer is a paper cord 6 which is knotted within the cap to prevent its withdrawal; and the upper end of said paper cord is secured to or formed into a paper tassel 7. This tassel may be formed in any suitable way but preferably consists of line strips of thin paper tied together at the top and then secured to the paper cord.
From the foregoing it is manifest that I provide an exceedingly simple paper cap or hat which may be made of standard size and then expanded more or less as may be necessary to fit it to the wearer. It is also clear that the hat may be expanded both at its upper and lower ends to maintain its normal proportions. The provision of the folded or finished edge at the bottom of the cap where it will receive -the greatest wear is of importance as it not only enables the hat to be readily placed on the head but reduces the likelihood of the material being broken or torn at said lower edge.
The cap may be readily folded or rolled into a small compass for convenience in transportation. It may be readily folded and suficiently reduced in size to permit of its being conveniently carried in the pocket. When worn it is light and cool. Its resilience while securely holding the cap in place is not sufficient to unpleasantly bind the head of the wearer.
What I claim is:
1. A paper cap comprising a body portion formed of linely indented paper the indentations running vertically of the body part of the cap so that said body part may be expanded to increase its diameter, and a top portion secured to said body portion and formed of finely indented paper, the said indentations running across the said top part so that the top of the hat may be expanded to increase the diameter of the top of the i2). A paper cap comprising a body portion formed of finely indented paper the indentations running vertically of the body part of the cap so that said body part may be ex-` panded to increase its diameter, said body part being formed of a single sheet of material doubled or folded, the folded edge constituting the lower edge of the cap and the body part of the cap being of two thicknesses, and a top portion secured to said body portion and formed ot' nely indented paper, the said indentations running across the said top part so that the top of the cap may be expanded to increase the diameter of the top of the cap.
3. A paper cap comprising a body portion formed of finely indented paper, the indentations running vertically of the body part of the cap so that said body part may be expanded to increase its diameter, and a top portion secured to said body portion and formed of finely indented paper, the said indentations running across the said top part so that the upper of the cap may be expanded to increase the diameter of the top of the cap, the edge of said top part extending around and outside of the upper edge of the body part of the cap and secured thereto.
4. A cap comprising a body portion formed of inely corrugated soft flexible sheet material, the corrugations running Vertically of the body part of the cap so that said body part may be expanded to increase its diameter, said body part being formed of a single sheet of material doubled or folded,
the folded edge constituting the lower edge Copies of th'is patent may be obtained for ve cents each, by addressing the Commissioner of Patents,.
