IMPROVEMENT IN CAP-PADS.
Specification forming part of Letters Patent N 0. 174,985, dated March 21, 1876; application filed June 30, 1875.
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, SAMUEL A. TAYLOR, of Cambridge, in the county of Middlesex, State of Massachusetts, have invented a certain new and-useful Improvement in Gap'Pads, of which the following is a description sufliciently full, clear, and exact to enable any person skilled in the art or science to which my invention appertains to make and use the same, reference being had to the accompanying drawing, forminga part of this specification, in which- Figure 1 is an isometrical perspective view, showing the under side or interior of the cap, and Fig. 2 a transverse vertical section of the same.
Like letters of reference indicate corresponding parts in the difi'erent figures of the draw- 111g.
My invention relates more especially to that class of caps which are used by sailors, firemen, &c.; and consists in a detachable pad of novel construction, as hereinafter more fully set forth and claimed, by which the top or crown of the cap is kept expanded and its appearance and the comfort with which it is worn are greatly enhanced. It is well known that caps of this character not only get out of shape and look badly, but when the crown is broken down becomes very uncomfortable to the wearer. My invention is designed to obviate this difficulty and objection, and to that end I make use of means which will be readily obvious to all conversant with such matters from the following description.
In the drawing, A is the crown or top of the cap, and B the body. The crown is extended in the usual manner beyond the body, and provided with the pad 0, which is the distinguishing feature of my invention, and consists of an annulus or hoop, preferably formed of cloth or felted goods, and provided gwith an interiorly-arranged circular spring, D. The pad is detachable or independent of the garment, being uniform in thickness, and of a size proper for the cap in which it is to be employed.
In the use of the pad it is bent sufficiently to admit of inserting it through the body of the cap, and as it is passed into the crown is permitted to expand, as shown in Fig. 2.
Having thus explained my improvement, what I claim is- 1. As a new article of manufacture, the pad 0, provided with the spring D, substantially as specified.
2. The cap A B, provided with the pad 0, having the spring D, suhstantiallyas set forth and specified.
