Description
Nov. 3, 1931. J. w. KEESHAN, JR 1,8305738 HAT CONSTRUCTION Filed July 5, 1929 (7 7 INVENTOR is shown one of the various Patented Nov. 3, 1931 UNITED STATES PATENT OFFICE JOHN W. KEESHAN, JR., OF DANBURY, CONNECTICUT, ASSIGNOR TO THE FRANK H.v 1
COMPANY, OF DANBURY, CONNECTICUT', A CORPORATION' OF CONNECTICUT HAT CONSTRUCTION Application mea July 5, 192e. serial No. 375,954.
This invention relates tohat constructions and particularly to sweat bands therefor.
Among other objects, the invention is intended to provide a sweat band construction for hats which is durable in construction, neat and attractive in appearance, and which will provide lasting comfort and ease inwear. Other objects will be in part obvious and in part pointed out hereinafter.
The invention accordingly consists in the features of construction, combinations of elements, and arrangements of parts which will be exemplified in the construction hereinafter described, and the scope of the application of which will be indicated in the subjoined claims.
In the accompanying drawings, in which possible embodiments of the invention h Figure 1 is a vertical section of a straw at. Figure 2 is an enlarged elevation of a portion of the sweat band and crown of the hat.
Figure 3 is a horizontal sectional view .y taken on the line 3 3 of Figure 2.
-. of leather, are peculiarly shaped inorder to provide a cushioning action; these bands being so shaped that, when set into the hat body, the band inclines upwardly and inwardly, being substantially frusto-conicalin shape. As it is desirable to maintain this frustoeconi ical shape, and,y as such shape is partially or entirely lost if the ends of the sweat band are not kept in abutting relationship, itis important to provide means for maintainingl Y such relationship during the life of the hat.
The hat selected for illustration is a straw hat having a crown 1, a rim 2, and a sweat band 3. It will be understood that the invention may be embodied in other types of hats.
The sweat band 3 consists of a single strip of leather which encircles the inside of the crown 1, with the ends of the sweat band abutting, as at 4and held in abuttingvrelationship by a gum sticker 5 pasted to the inner or unfinished side of the sweat band to TO cover and protect the butted ends 0f the sweat band 3, `a iiexiblestrip 9, preferably of oil and waterproof cloth, is applied to theouteror finished side of the sweat band to overlap the butt ljoint 4 of the lends of the sweat band. As best shown in Fig ure 4, the strip 9 is preferably long enough toV extend over and lap the top. of the sweat' band Brand the gum sticker 5, and to extend rbeneath and lap the bottomY of the sweat band 3, the gum sticker 5 and the flexible band lG. The 'lower end of the strip 9 may be held in'position by the stitches 8 which pass through the crown l, the lower'inner lapped portion of the strip 9and the flexible band 6. The upper lend of the strip 9 may be held in position by stitches 10 which pass through the upper lapped portion ofthe strip 9, the gum sticker 5, the sweat band 3 and the outer portion of the strip 9. A bow 11 may be provided near'the top of the sweat band and overlying the strip 9. When such a bow is provided, it may be heldin position bythe stitches 10 .which are caused to pass lthrough the bow, As a bow 11 is usually applied in hat constructions, no additional sewing operations are required to apply the strip 9; the strip 9 being held in position at the top ofthe sweat band by the stitches 10 which hold the bow `11 in place, and the lower end of the strip 9being heldin position by the stitches 8, which secure the band 6 to the crown of the hat. i
Among other advantages, the protecting strip v9, which is preferably oil and'waterproof, covers the abutting ends of the sweat band 3, and prevents liquids such oil or perspiration,fromseeping through the abut-v 'Ill carry a trade-name, hat size, or other inscription.
It Will be seen that there is provided a construction of an essentially practical na,- ture in which the several objects of this invention lare attained.
As many other embodiment may be made without `departing from the scope of this invention, it is to be understood'that all matter `herein set forth or shown in the accomfianying vdrawings is to `be interpreted as illustrative and not in a limiting sense.
I claim: Y
in rhat construction, in combination, a s'weatband-having a fabric material secured thereto along its lower edge, said fabric material being stitched to the body vof a hat and said sweatband having V`abutting ends, means `overlapping the abutting ends of said sweatband -upon the inner side of the latter andsecured:thereto by an adhesive, an d a relatively `flexible 'strip extending crosswise of said band only over the marginal portions thereof adjacent said abutting ends, said strip 5 being held in place by. means including the stitches'that hold said fabric material to said hat and by stitching at the upper edge of said band extending through the latter and through Vsaid first-mentioned means.
2. In hat construction, in combination, a sW-eatband having its ends arranged in abutting relationship, means for connecting` said enc a yWaterproof strip covering said ends and crossing the `line of abutment on the inne-r side of said sWeatband-and extending over the top and bottom edges :of said sweatband to overlap said means, and means securing said strip to said sweatb'and.
3. In hat construction, in combination, a sweatband having its ends arranged in abutting relationship, adhesive means on one side of said band for connecting said. ends, a Waterproof strip covering said abutting ends on the other side of said band and having its ends extendingl over the top and bottom crossing the line of abutment on the inner June, 1929.
