UNITED STA-TES EUGENE STEBBINGS, OF DES MOINES, IOWA.
HAT FAN.
Application led April 23, 1924. Serial No. 708,434.
To @YZ l1li/1.0m t may concern:
Be it known that I, EUGENE S'rnnrNos, a citizen of the United States, residing in Des Moines, in the county of Polk and State of Iowa, have invented a certain new and useful Hat lFan, of which the following is a specification.
a hat fan of simple, durable and comparatively inexpensive construction, wherein a complete fan may be placed within a hat. and retained therein by means forming a part of the fan.
Still a further object is to provide a fan member having a fan element provided with a handle slidably and yieldingly mounted thereon and capable of movement, and positioned substantially within the outline of the fan element so that the fan may be placed within a hat and when the handle is released,one end thereof will slide against the hat for retaining the complete fan within the hat.
Still a further object is to provide a fan adapted to be received within a hat having a handle thereon, which handle serves as a means for retaining the fan within the hat.
Vith these and other objects in view, my invention consists in the construction, ar rangement and combination of the various parts of my device, whereby the objects contemplated are attained, as hereinafter more fully set forth, pointed out in my claims, and illustrated in the accompanying drawings, in which:
Figure 1 is a perspective view of a half section of a hat with my improved fan shown therein, in inoperative position.
Figure 2 is a top, plan view of the fan with the handle thereof shown in dotted lines in one of its positions.
Figure 3 is a sectional view taken on line 3-3 of Figure 2 showing the slidable con nection between the fan element and the handle; and
Figure 4 is a detail, sectional view taken of the crown thereof, includes a fan element 11 formed of paper or any other suitable material.
A handle 12, having its ends formed of slightly thicker material, as at 13, is slidably connected to the fan element-11 by a 1 pair of guides 14, which are formed of flat The object of my invention is to provide strips of metal having their ends extended through the fan element 11 and bent over, as clearly shown in Figure 4 of the drawings.
The portions 13 of the handle 12 prevent the handle from being slid out of the guides 14.
One end of the handle 12, which is nearest the fan element 11 has a groove 15 provided therein, in which is mounted a rubber orresilient band 16 which extends alongr the two sides of the handle 12 and is received in notches 17 formed in the fan element on each side of the handle 12.
The rubber band 16 then extends below the fan element, as clearly shown in dotted lines in Figure 2and in solid lines in F igure 4 of the drawings.
From the construction of the parts just described, it will be seen that the resilient band 16 will tend to yieldingly force the handle 12 to one limit of its movement, that is, where the enlarged portion 13 of the handle 12, at one end will strike against one of the guides 14, which is positioned near the center of the fan element 11.
The handle 12 may be slid to the position shown in dotted lines in Figure 2 against the action of the rubber or resilient band 16 and in that case, the handle 12 will come substantially within the outline of the fan element 11. The fan element 11 is of substantially the same size .and shape as the inside of the hat 10 and can be received therein when the handle 12 is mounted in the position shown in dotted lines in Figure 2.
After the fan element 11 is within the hat 10 and the handle 12 released, the rubber band 16 will cause the handle to be moved in the direction indicated by the arrow 18, causing one end of the handle 12 to engage the hat 10 thereby retaining the entire fan within the hat.
When it is desired to remove the fan from the hat, all that is necessary is to engage the handle 12, moving the same in the direction opposite from the arrow 18, and then the entire fan may be lifted out of the hat.
It will be noted that I have provided a very eiiicient means for retaining the fan within the hat, which forms an important part of the fan itself.
The fan can be carried in straw hats at all times and Whenever it is desired to u sea fan, then it can be quickly and easily removed from the hat.
Some changes may be made in the construction and arrangement of the various parts of my invention, without departing from the real spirit and purpose of my invention and it is my intention to cover by my claims, any modified forms of structure or use of mechanical equivalents, which may ybe reasonably included Within their scope.
I claim as my invention: 1. In a fan structure of the class described adapted to be received and retained 1n a hat or the like, a fan element, a handle member slidably mounted on the fan for movement in a plane parallel with the plane of the fan, the i'an and handle having cooperating members for slidably mounting the handle on the fan, a yielding device interposed between the fan and the handle for yieldingly tending to move the handle to extended position, said handle and fan having coacting means for limiting the extendn Iing movement of the handle, whereby when the handle is moved to one position against the tension of the yielding device, it lies substantially parallel with the fan, whereas when the handle is permitted to move toward extended position when the device is placed in a hat, the fan will engage one side of the hat and the handle the other side for yieldingly holding the fan in the hat by frictional engagement therewith.
2. In a fan structure of the class described adapted to be received and retained in a hat or the like, a fan element, a handle member slidably mounted on the fan for movement in a plane parallel with the plane of the fan, the fan and handle having cooperating members for slidably mounting the handle on the fan, a yielding device interposed between the fan and the handle for yieldingly tending to move the handle to extended position, said handle and fan having coacting means for limiting the extending movement of the handle, whereby when the handle is moved to one position against the tension yof the yielding device, it lies substantially parallel with the fan, whereas when the handle is permitted to move toward extended position when the device is placed in a hat, the fan will engage one side of the hat and the handle the other side for yieldingly holding the fan in the hat by frictional engagementV therewith, said fan and handle element comprising in each instance fiat substantially thin members.
