J. C. PETERSON.
SWEATBAND FOR HATS.
APPLICATION FILED JULY 15. 1919.
1,349,472, Patented Aug. 10,1920.
' INVENTOR I K fife/15022 4 rmnms rs To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, JULrUs C. PETERSON, a citizen of the United States, and a resident of Spokane, in the county of Spokane and State of lVa shington, have invented a new and Improved Sweatband for Hats, of which the following is a full, clear, and exact description.
This invention relates to improvements in sweat bands for hats, an obj ect of the inven tion being to provide a sweat band which can be adjusted to fit any ordinary hat, which will allow a circulation of air around .the head, which will be comfortable to the wearer, and which can be removed and replaced as desired.
A furtherobject is to provide a sweat band which will be of general truncated conical form conforming with the shape of the head and not with the shape of the hat as is customary in devices of this character in eneral use. 7
flats are ordinarily made so that the opening is oval and symmetrical. The human head is seldom" symmetrical, and its shape is ordinarily too irregular to be oval,
having, as it has, many bumps. Usually the back of the head is wider than the forehead, and this is accentuated by the fact that hair usually grows on the back of the head and never grows on the forehead. In consequence the ordinary sweat band, fastened to the inside of the crown of the hat around its lower edge, comes into contact with the head at only a few points. The ordinary sweat bandis of the same perimeter (or nearly so) at both top and bottom, so that it is similar in shape to a short, somewhat flattened, cylinder. The shape of the head being an irregular ovoid, results in only the lower edge of the ordinary sweat band coming into contact with the head at a few points. Consequently the points of contact of the head with the edge of the band are subjected to relative high pressure, adjacent parts have slight-pressure, while parts entirely out of contact have no pressure.
Discomfort is caused at the points of high pressure, the'hat does not set securely on the head, and extraneous forces as the wind, or the jars of walking or riding, arelikely to displace it. If the points of high pressure come opposite the arteries and veins which carry the blood to and from the scalp. the circulation of the blood is interfered with and the scalp and hair follicles do not UNITED STATES PATENT OFFICE.

SWEA'IBAND FOR HATES.
Specification of Letters Patent. Patented Aug, 10 1920. Application filed July 15, 1919.
Serial No. 310,949.
of fresh air, so that perspiration, whether sensible or insensible, is not quickly evaporated. If the hair remains damp with perspiration, the poisonous products in the perspiration destroy the vitality of the hair. Hair that is not perfectly healthy and that is of low vitality, is more susceptibleto attack by the diseases which are further causes of baldness, such as dandruff. If, then, the
circulation of the blood to the scalp is inter-- fered with less, and ventilation of the hair is provided for, the health and vitality of the hair will be improved and the danger of I premature baldness decreased.
Another. object of my invention is to overcome the defects of sweat bands in general use, and embody the advantages above referred to, as Wlll more fully hereinafter appear. i
.lVith these and other objects in view the invention consists in certain novel features of construction, and combinations and arrangements of parts, as will be more fully hereinafter described and pointed out in the claims.
In the accompanying drawings Figure l is a bottom plan view-illustrating my improved sweat band in a hat;
Fig. 2 is a view in longitudinal section through the center of the hat;
Fig. 3 is' a view in transverse section through the center of the hat;
Fig. 4 is a perspective view of the sweat band removed; 3
Fig. 5 is a view in elevation of the adjusting buckle 4; a i
Fig. 6 is an edge view of the adjusting buckle l; i
Fig. 7 is a view in transverse section; and
Fig. 8 isa view in elevation illustrating one of the socket members 14.
sweat band located within the hat and havi ing its ends 3, 3, adjustably secured together by means of a buckle 4. The strap forming the sweat band 2 is so cut or made that its upper edge is shorter than its lower edge sothat when the sweat band is formed, it will be of general truncated conical form so that its upper portion will be spaced from the crown of the hat and will fit the head of the wearer. Furthermore, the sweat band will be spaced from the hat principally at its front and rear portions so as to all low a free circulation of :air inside of the hat and also prevent the forehead and back of the head. from binding action by the hat.
The adjustingbuckle 4 is shown in detail in Figs. 5, 6 and 7 and comprises four longltudinal bars 5, 6, 7 and 8 spaced apart and connected at their ends by flanges 10 and 11 for engaging the edges of the sweat band and preventing possibility of movement of the buckle vertically after it has been adjusted. The intermediate bars 6 and At the front and rear portions of the sweat band a plurality of straps 12 are'provided. Some of these straps are secured at their upper ends to the sweat bandand others are-secured at their lower ends to the sweat band, and all of said straps at their free ends are provided with stud members 13 of ordinary snap buttons which engage socket members 14% fixed to the hat.
These straps 12 hold the sweat band and hat against independent vertical movement, but permit *a flexibility of the sweat band longitudinally and'la'terally so that the hat will not bind the head. At the sides of the sweat band a series of stud members 18 are provided which engage socket members 14 fixed to the hat and any member'of these snap button constructions may be employed as desired. v
By reference particularly to Fig. 8, it will be noted that the socket'members 1e have elongated slots or sockets 15 therein and these sockets are positioned horizontally within the hat so that in the' event of shrinkage or adjustment, or for any other reason.
The sweat band can be removed, adjusted or cleaned, and replaced 1n the same or 111 any other hat so that if an owner has one wind thus preventing the annoyance of the hat blowing off the head of the wearer.
Various slight changes may be made in the general form and arrangement of parts described without departing from the invention, and hence I do not limit myself to the precise details set forth but consider myself at liberty to make such changes and alterations as fairly fall within the spirit and scope of the appended claims.
I claim:
1. A sweat band for hats, comprising a strip, and straps for attaching said band to a hat, said straps located at the front and rear portions ofthe sweat band, certain of said straps secured to the lower portion of the sweat band and others of said straps secured to the upper portion of the sweat band.
2. The combination with a hat, of a sweat band in the hat, straps secured to the front and rear portions of the sweat band, certain of said straps secured to the lower portion of the sweat band, and others of said straps secured to the upper portion of the sweat hand, all of said straps'having securing devices at their free ends for attachment to the hat, i
3. The combination with a band in the hat, straps secured to the front and rear portions of the sweat band, certainof said straps secured to the lower portion of the sweat bandpand others of said straps secured'to "the upperportion of the sweat hand, all of said straps having securing devices at their free ends for attachment to the hat, said sweat band at itsfront and rear portions spaced from the hat and at its side portions located against the hat and secured thereto.
