1 Claim.
The invention relates to a protector and more especially to a hat brim protector for soft or felt hats.
The primary object of the invention is the provision of a protector of this character, wherein the same is preferably made from cardboard or any suitable material and is usable in a bag so that when the hat is placed upon the board and within the bag, its brim will be protected when the bag is carried from one point to another, the protector being usable by hat cleaning and blocking establishments and eliminating the necessity for the use of hat boxes or other like receivers which are most costly.
Another object of the invention is the provision of a protector of this character, wherein the crown of the hat can be engaged therewith, so that its brim will be shielded or guarded, particularly when within a bag or the like, the protector being of novel construction and made from a single piece of cardboard or any suitable material.
A further object of the invention is the provision of a protector of this character which is extremely simple in construction, thoroughly reliable and efficient in its purpose, when holding a hat will prevent displacement thereof on placement within a bag for the delivery of the hat to a customer, and inexpensive to manufacture.
With these and other objects in View, the invention consists in the features of construction, combination and arrangement of parts as will be hereinafter more fully described in detail, illustrated in the accompanying drawing, which discloses the preferred embodiment of the invention, and pointed out in the claim hereunto appended.
In the accompanying drawing:
Figure 1 is a perspective view of the protector constructed in accordance with the invention and within a bag, the bag being broken away for illustrative purposes.
Figure 2 is a sectional view on the line 2-2 of Figure 1 looking in the direction of the arrows.
Figure 3 is an enlarged plan view of the protector removed from the bag and free of the hat.
Similar reference characters indicate corresponding parts throughout the several views in the drawing.
Referring to the drawing in detail, the protector comprises a cardboard body 5 of sheetlike formation so that it will be flat. The body 5 is of a size to neatly fit Within a container, such as a bag 6 made from paper, the bag being of the conventional kind for the reception of a hat.
Cut and bent from the body 5 are spaced oppositely disposed flaps 1, these being adapted to extend at right angles from the plane of the body 5 from one side thereof. The flaps l are located at the center of the body 5. Formed with one of the flaps 1 is a hooking tongue'8, while formed with the other flap is a slotted tongue 9 having the slot ID for the interlocking of the hooking tongue therewith- These tongues 8 and 9, when interlocked with each other, will hold. the flaps I in their set position, as shown in Figures 1' and 2 of the drawing. The hat, either soft or felt, is placed over the flaps 1 with the brim at rest upon the body 5, the latter being protected by the body 5 when placed within the bag 6 so that the brim will retain its proper shape without regard tothe laying of the bag upon a support or when carried in the hand for the transportation of the hat to a customer either by the toting of the same in the hand or when shipped in a receptacle.
What is claimed is:
A protector of the character described comprising a single sheet of relatively stiff fiat material, a pair of normally flat flaps of a size approximating the interior length of a hat crown cut from the sheet of material at its center in spaced relation to each other and adapted to be bent to extend at right angles from one face of the sheet of material in parallel relation to each other for their snug fitting within the crown of the hat the dimension of the sheet between and parallel to the upstanding flaps being greater than the length of the flaps to have the hat brim rest upon the sheet of material, and tongues on the said flaps and separably interlocked with each other to hold the said flaps in their right-angular disposition relative to the sheet of material,the said flaps and sheet of material being adapted to maintain shape to the brim and crown of the hat.
