UNITED STATES PATENT OFFICE.
EMIL STRAUSZ, CF CHICAGO, ILLINOIS.
IMPRovi-:MENT IN EAR-MuFFs.
Specification forming part of Letters Patent No. 165,273, dated July 6, 1575 application filed J une 3, 1375.
T) all whom it may concern:
Be itv known that I, EMIL STRAUSZ, of Chicago, in the county of Cook and State of' Illinois, have invented an Improvement in Ear- Muft's, of which the following is a specification:
The nature of my invention relates to an improvement in muffs that are worn upon or over the ears to protect them during severe cold weather, and has for its object toso construct thevmui's and their fastenings 4as that they will entirely inclose the ears and protect a part of the head surrounding their insertion not heretofore protected by the ordinary forms `of ear-muffs.
Figure l is a perspective view of a pair' of my improved muffs as they appear when in use. t
Figure 2 extended.
In the drawing, A A represent the inuffs, which are pear-shaped, and so gathered at the edges in stitching on the binding a as to make them concave -conveX, causing them when drawn against the head to cover the ears entirely, and to cover a portion of the surrounding iiesh not covered by the hair or beard, which has heretofore been impossible to protect with the muis worn.
The mus are connected together at their is an external plan of the same l l l upper ends by three crossed elastic straps, B B B, which go over the top of the head, and are secured in position `by an elastic loop, b, attached to the lower end of one muff, which is brought under the chin and engaged with a button, c, at the lower end of the other muii.
The tendency of the diverging crossed straps at the top is to draw the edges of the mutt' to the side of the head, protecting alike the ear and its surrounding parts. g
In lieu of a plurality ot' crossed straps B, the upper ends oi' the inutts may be connected by a single strap, but in that case the sides of the muft's will not"be drawn so close and snug v to the side of the head as with the crossed straps.
What I claim as my invention is The ear-muii's, of the form described, connected at the top by a plurality of crossed straps, and underneath by an elastic band. to pass below the chin, so that when said muft's are secured over the ears by the tension of the said crossed straps they will assume a convex form, thereby entirely inclosing the ears, substantially as described.
