UNITED STATES PATENT OFFICE SWEATBAND Simon Lazarus, Louisville, Ky. Application April 5, 1932, Serial N0. 603,297
1 Claim.
This application is a continuation in part of application, Serial No. 419,989, filed January 10, 1930.
The object of the invention is to provide a sweatband so constructed as to positively preclude the absorption of moisture from the head of the user, so that there will be no opportunity for transfer of the same through the wall of the hat with its consequent deleterious eiiects on the hatband; to provide a sweatband in which the moisture excluding medium is applied without materially increasing the thickness of the band; to provide a sweatband in which the passage of moisture is precluded by capillarity through the attaching threads or stitches; and generally to provide a sweatband which, while possessing a moisture resisting function, may be produced without materially increasing the cost thereof.
`With this object in view, the invention consists in a construction and combination of parts of which a preferred embodiment is illustrated in the accompanying drawing but to which embodiment the invention is not to be restricted. Continued use in practice may suggest certain changes or alterations and the right is claimed to make any properly falling Within the scope of the appended claim.
In the drawing:
Figure 1 is a perspective view of a hat having the sweatband attached but prior to the attachment of the ribbon or the treatment of the attaching threads for the.'exclusion of moisture from them.
Figure 2 is a view similar to Figure 1 showing the completed hat.
Figure 3 is a vertical transverse sectional view through a portion of the hat wall and sweatband in which the latter is of lamina construction.
Figure 4 is a detail perspective view of a portion or section of the laminated form of band.
Figure 5 is a similar view of still another lamina form.
Figure 6 is a sectional View similar to Figure 3 but showing a sweatband in which the moisture resisting medium is in the form of a coating applied to the band.
The invention is applicable to hats of either the stiiI or soft type and may consist of bands such as indicated at 10, 11 or 12. In the form of band indicated at 10, both the ilesh and hair sides are initially coated with a moisture-proof cement, as indicated at 14 and 15, this being a cement in commercial use and which, after application, rernains dry, so that it may not stick to the skin. Also it s of a character to permit exing of the band without cracking, so that none of the pliability of the band is lost by its use. Ordinarily, even though the band may be waterproofed, as by such cement, there is not only a chance but probability of the transfer of moisture through the attaching stitches 16, so that after the band is secured to the hat, as by the line oi stitching 16, the needle holes are closed, as by the application of cement, as indicated at 17.
The cement forms a coating impervious to moisture, so that when the hat is completed with the band prepared as indicated, there is no opportunity for the transfer of moisture from the head of the user to the ribbon 18.
An alternative form of band is that indicated at 11 and in carrying out the invention with this form of band, the leather is split from one of its longitudinal edges to a line adiacent the opposite longitudinal edge to provide the layers or laminae 11B. and 11b, which on their facing sides, may be coated with cement as indicated at 19, this cement being of the same character as that used on the band 10. In addition, a strip 20 is inserted between the two lamin, this strip being of waterproof material commercially known as cellophane, which is peculiarly adapted for the purpose by reason of its toughness and thinness. So thin is the layer or laminal20, that its insertion between the two lamina: 11* and 11b, adds practically no thickness to the band as a whole. In attaching, the band 11 is secured by a line of stitching such as indicated at 21, this stitching passing through the lamina 20. The cement may or may not be applied to close the needle holes, s'mce the passing of the stitching through the lamina 20 substantially precludes the passage of any moisture lthrough the threads by reason of the closeness with which the material of the lamina hugs the threads.
For the cheaper form of band in whichsplitting cannot be carried out effectively without danger of having the two lamin formed by the operation of unequal thickness, that illustrated at 12 in Figure 5 is employed. The leather lamina 12B is coated on the flesh side as indicated at 22 and against this coated flesh side is laid a lamina 12b, of the commercially known cellophane or equivalent material. This band is sewed into the hat at the customary line of attachment and preferably the needle holes, where the stitching is required, are closed with cement, inthe manner indicated at 17 in connection with the band 10.
The invention having been described, what is claimed as new and useful is:
A sweatband comprising a strip of leather of the thickness of the conventional sweatband and split from one of its longitudinal edges to a line in close proximity to the opposite longitudinal edge to form opposing lamin, and a strip of moisture-proof material inserted between said lamin and co-extensive in length with the latter, the moisture-proof material being of such thickness as to add practically no thickness to the band as av whole.
