O. SEYDEL,
TOWEL AND NAPKIN SUPPORTER. APPLICATION FILED AUG.5. 1916.
1,237,564. Patented Aug. 21,1917.
. q z Iflllllllilllflllllllllllllllllllliil I OTTO SEYDEL, OF ST. LOUIS, MISSOURI.
TOWEL AND NAPKIN SUPPORTER.
Specification of Letters Patent.
Patented Aug. 21, 1917.
Application filed August 5, 1916. Serial No. 113,337.
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, OTTO SEYDEL, a subject of the Emperor of Germany, residing in the city of St. Louis, State of Missouri, have invented a certain new and useful Improvement in Towel and Napkin Supporters, of which the following is a specification.
This invention relates to devices for sustaining a towel or napkin around the neck of a child or a person being shaved or operated upon by a doctor or dentist, and has for its prime object the provision of a simple, durable and inexpensive article of the character described which will render it unnecessary to tie the towel or napkin about the neck.
Referring to the annexed drawing, wherein like numerals refer to like parts throughout the several views, Figure l is a perspective of the invention showing its elements separated for the reception of a napkin or towel; Fig. 2 a top plan view; and Fig. 3 a side elevation showlng the retention of the towel or napkin.
In carrying my invention into practice I curve a section of flat spring steel so as to provide a substantially annular collar 1 conforming to the shape of the neck, the opposite extremities of said collar being spaced slightly apart and rebent as at 2 so as to permit of its easy application and removal.
I-Iingedly secured to the inner surface of collar 1 by rivets 3 and l is a comparatively short length of flat spring steel 5 which is given the same curvature as said collar and lies in close proximity thereto when the article is in use, as best shown in Fig. 2. When it is desired to suspend a towel or napkin about the neck of a person being shaved or operated upon by a dentist, member 5 is lifted to the position shown in Fig. l and the edge of the cloth then placed over collar 1, whereupon said member is pressed downward behind said collar and thus serves to retain the cloth firmly in place.
To position the article upon the neck it is only necessary to force apart the free eX tremities of the resilient collar and removal of the cloth may be instantly effected by simply raising member 5.
While I have herein described the article as being made of spring steel it is to be understood that any other materialfound adaptable may be employed at will, and the right is reserved of making such minor modifications in the formation of the elements of the invention as may be considered necessary or desirable.
Having thus fully described the structure and application of my invention, what I claim as new and desire to secure by Letters-Patent is 1. An article of the character described comprising a resilient band adapted to fit about the neck of an adult or a child, and a member hingedly connected therewith adapted to retain a towel or napkin.
2. An article of the character described comprising a resilient band adapted to fit about the neck of an adult or a child, and a curved member disposed in close proximity to the inner surface thereof and hingedly connected therewith.
OTTO SEYDEL. Witnesses:
CHARLES A. BEoKER, W. KEANE SMALL.
