" ,VENYJQILATIQTG STRIP FOR HATs K Application filed July 11,
- This invention is directed, to an improvement in self-conforming, ventilating sweat bands for hats, caps-and iotherheadwear, wherein the fit of the h atis comfortableto the T5 head of the wearer, andthe space withinthe hat above the,headaisthoroughly; and com:
pletely-ventilated at 'alltimes. I
p ,The primaryobjectof the present inven tion is the provision ofga section yieldable 7 "i0 ,underpressure and formed-to provide,'opeI 1- ings which extend throughithe section from V the lower to the upper edge as in,use,,the;el-as.- -ticity of the section .providinggthe' jselfcon+ forming feature and the openingsiin thesec which 'thestrip and sweat band are secured r1 tothehat. V
' i A further object ofthei presentl'nvention is the provision self-conforming ventilating strip of an integral extension designedto underlie the meeting edges of the sweat-band, 5 andto permitjsuch meetingfedges to be secured in an even, fixed relation to facilitate the assemblage andmaterially 'improve the finish at this point.- Y 3 i *jlThe invention is illustrated in the accompanying drawings, in which: i
Figureil is a broken plan-view 'of a portion of a hat, showing the improved self-conforming ventilating strip in position. Figure 2-is a vertical section of the same.
Figure 3 is a plan; view of the ventilating strip showing the same as an endless member I conforming in size'to the hat for which it is adapted.

strip,-in'dicated at 1, is a comparatively nary row section of yieldable or more or less elastic T material"formed throughout its length with r a a series of openings 2-,:which open through the upper and lower-surfaces, of the strip asthe same arranged when in applied position. p r i -"lhe width of the strip, thatis, its dimen- 6 s-ionvertically of the hat as the strip islap H plied is, designed to vary Withthe character,
' of hat with which'the strip is used. For ex? ample in caps and the like thestrip .will 7 necessarily be of l, c.omparatively narrow 'width, 1 while in stiff-hats, and particularly silk hats, the strip-Will be of greaterwi'dth in. order to present: a greater lengthiof yielda J ing surface to the head of, the wearer.
' The outersurfacej of'the ventilating strip, 7- that is the surface next the :hatas the strip is applied, is cutaway ,or reduced in width," as at 3, this cut away, portion extendingfrom the upper ,edge toaipoint immediately adja'cent the lower edge, and there presenting afisomewhatinc'lined-shoulder 4; This cut away portionj'provides for the cementing to the strip ofthe cloth or likeband-5, the fold of which immediately underlies the shoulder 4, andth'efree section ,60f which'band is utilized for stitching the strip and connected sweatband, to] the hat in the'u'sual manner.
.7 Theinner surface ofthe-ventilating strip is similarly Zcut awayat 7 terminatingin an sweat-band 9 i's'cemented. The depth of the recess ise'qu'al tothe thickness of the sweatface to thereby avoid projection which would otherwisetend to the discomfort of the wear- 1. j er. Jls'the lower edge .of the sweat-ban'd-fits abrupt shoulder 8 adjacent; the lowerve'dge' 9' 'ofthestr'ip, providing a recessinwhich the snuglyrjagainst 'the. shoulder. 8 ,it isapparent: v I
that when applied there is no liability of any projecting portion of the sweat-band inwardly of the lower edge of the ventilating strip. Thus, there is no possibility of the sweat-band being disconnected from the yentilating strip in the continued application of the hat, as would be liable if the sweat-band presented a projection inwardly ofthe strip.
The sweat-band proper is of course a proper length of appropriate material-which, when applied to the hat, presents meeting ends, indicated at 10. In ordinary hat construction, these meeting ends are joined by a separate piece of material secured to the cloth band, involving additional labor and expense and at the same time necessitating an unfinished appearance of the hat at this point. To avoid this additional labor and unfinished appearance, the ventilating strip of the present invention is provided with an upstanding, integral comparatively thin tab 11, which underlies-the meeting ends of the sweatband and to which such meeting ends may be cemented or otherwise secured. Thus, the
- sweat-band may be secured in a manner to positively prevent the separation of its ends 1n a simple, expeditious manner, avoiding V undue projection at this point and materially increasing the finished appearance of the hat The ventilating strip is to be constructed so that it is yieldable to the pressure of the head of the wearer when the hat is in place. For this purpose, it is apparent that the Ventilating strip may be constructed of soft rubber or other similar material, or if de sired may be made of paper strips between which a convolute length of paper is arranged to provide the ventilating openings. Any and all materials capable of affording ventilat ing openings and the same time presenting the self-conforming feature are contemplated so long as such strip presents on its respective inner and outer surfaces the recesses for the I reception of the sweat-band and cloth band,
as previously described. As an important detail of the present invention, it is to be understood that the ven- A tilating strip may be constructed of an endless length of material presenting a ringlike member of a size to fit the particular size of hat for which it is designed. This will materially facilitate the application of the sweat-band, cloth band and'ventilating strip, without undue projection at any point, avoiding discomfort as a result of such projection and materially increasing the finished appearance of this portion of the hat. This particular form of the hat band is illustrated in Figure 3.
It is of course also contemplated that the ventilating strip be made in lengths, as indicated in Figure 5, so that a length appropriate to the size of the hat with which it is being used may be cut from the main length and the strip applied. In this use, the ends of the strip may be cemented or otherwise secured together to avoid lapping and thus avoid undue projection.
What is claimed to be new is:
1. A ventilating strip for hats or the like,
comprising a yieldable strip formed with Ventilating openings therethrough, the inner surface of the strip being recessed to receive the hat band, the outer surface of the strip being recessed to receive the cloth attaching band.
rounded edge with a shoulder coextensive in width with the. thickness of the sweatband to be used and forming a support for such sweatband, withithe inner surface of the strip above the shoulder providing a flat surface to which the sweat band may be secured, the rounded lower edge ofthe strip merging into said shoulder. V I
4 A self conforming ventilating strip for hats and the like, comprising ayieldable strip formed with Ventilating openings, the lower portion of the inner surface being formed with a ,swea-tband supporting shoulder, the strip having an integral upstanding section to which the meeting ends of the sweatband above the strip may be secured.
In testimony whereof I aflix'my signature.
