CAP.
Application filed January 15, 1924, Serial No. (586,259.
7 '0 all whom it mag concern:
Be it known that I, ABRAHAM JOSEPHS, a
citizen of the United States of America, re-
siding at New York city, New York, have invented new and useful Improvements in Caps, of which the following is a specification.
My invention relates torimprovements in caps, particularly intended for summer wear, when motoring, playing golf, or the like.
Difficulties have always been experienced in providing proper ventilation for the interior of a cap. I have devised a cap which I believe will give ample ventilatiomand will accomplish this desirable result without sacrificing theappearance of the cap, or
- without burdening the cap with unduly heavy means for effecting the ventilation, 1
and at the same time without weakening the structure of the cap orlesseni'ng its durability.
With these objects in view, my invention consists in the construction, combination and arrangement of parts herein described and claimed and illustrated in the accompanying drawings.
In these drawings, in which similarreference characters designate corresponding parts in all views, I have illustrated a preferred embodiment of my invention.
Figure 1 is a perspective view of a cap in the ordinary wearing position; and Figure 2 1s a slmllar view showing the forward part raisedfrom the peak to obtain full ventilation. I 1
Referring. to these drawings, the cap 1 like most caps consists of an outside or covering portion made up of a number of sectors 2 upon a supporting structure con provided a peak 5. The cap is further usually provided with a sweat-band, and at the joining of'the several sectors a button 6, and may or may notbe provided with a I snap-fastener 78, the one part located upon the peak and the other at the forwardv ment of a sufficiently partof the top of the cap so as to fasten it to the peak when desired. 3
- Although I have described the taping which in effect forms a framework as a sup-.
porting structure, it will be realized that sufficient, and ordie cap takes much of This has made diflithis in itself is hardl nari-ly the fabric of th the wear and strain.
Without usingheavy materials, such as metal eyelets, or wire 'mesh, of fine metal wire which has sometimes been inserted as a part of the fabric, and which has had the further disadvantage of being-relatively stiff, interfering with the comfort of the cap when worn, and with the folding of it to fit in the pocket. 1
Accordingly I have devised a construction in which an openwork cloth or thread fabric forms the ventilating means, the use of it being rendered possible by the arrangestrong supporting structure.
Referring to the drawings, I make a number of the sectors Q at the forward part of,
the capof part length only, preferably about half of them, leaving air open space from that point to the rim or edge of the can except for the radial tapes, 4. Then, in order to afford support for the edges of these (cult the problem of ventilating ,the cap,
sectors I provide a strip of taping 9 run- .ning, along these edges and connecting the radial tapes of the supporting structure.
The space from the bottom edge of the forward sectors down to the edge of the cap,
or the back of the peak,-is provided with a suitable openwork fabric 10, also of relatively soft material, sufliciently durable in itself, but not strong enough to take the wearand tear of the ordinary fabric of the cap, the strength of the cap being maintained by the aforesaid more substantial ,tape members of the supporting structure,
to whichthe said ventilating fabric is attached, this fabric being also attached to the,
edges of the adjacent sectors. I
When the snap-fastener 7-8 is left open, the forward 'part of the cap is held up natu rally, either by the hair or by the. wind in motoring; and when the forward partvof the cap is held down upon the peak by the snapfastener, the sides of the ventilating fabrlc.
are still exposed to an amount sufficient to Letters Patent:
Q 1,502,202 provide some ventilation within" the cap, 'ing a tape supporting their lower ends and -1' without however detracting \from the apattached to the radialtapes, and openwork pearance thereof. I I fabric ventilatingmaterial mounted upon r Having now described my invention, I and supported by said tapes and filling the .6 claim and desire to secure by United States space between the short sectors and the rim 1 I of the cap, said space extending on either 20 p A ventilated cap comprising a'circumferside beyond the outer edges of the peak oi ential supporting tape, a plurality of secthe cap so that when the forward ,part of tors secured thereto, a peak, a plurality of the cap is held down upon the peak, the sides I It} radial tapes located at theLedges of said of the ventilating fabric are still exposedto sectors and extending to. and connected with provide ventilation within the cap. I 25 the said suppdrtin tape, certain of the sec- In testimony whereof I have signed my tors at the forwar part of the cap being of name to this specification. v less length than the rear sectors, and hav-' L ABRAHAM J OSEPIlS.
