Description
Sept. 6, 1938. J. M. BRAMNICK NET CANOPY FOR BABY CARRIAGES Filed Jan. 12, 1931' Patented Sept. 6, 1938 UNITED STATES PATENT OFFICE 6 Claims.
My invention relates to net canopies for baby carriages and the like, and it relates more particularly to a novel construction of such canopies whereby the same may be economically made,
5 and whereby said canopies when so made will drape evenly and without large folds or Wrinkles when placed on the baby carriage.
The 'principal object, therefore', of the present invention is to provide a canopy for use in connection with baby carriages and the like, for the purpose of preventing flies and other insects from having access to a baby within the carriage, which canopy may be inexpensively constructed, will present a neat appearance, and will drape over a baby carriage of the ordinary type without large and objectionable folds.
With the foregoing objects in view, the invention contemplates the provision of a canopy for baby carriages and the like, the main body portion of which is made of two pieces of material, each so shaped that when united to each other, in the manner as hereinafter set forth, and provided with an elastic contractable hem, said canopy will have the desirable characteristics as aforesaid.
The nature and characteristic features of the invention will be more readily understood from the following description, taken in connection with the accompanying drawing, forming part hereof, in which:
Figure l is a perspective View illustrating a portion of a baby carriage with a net canopy embodying the main features of the present invention shown in operative relationship with respect thereto;
Fig. 2 is a plan view of one of the members forming a part of the main or body portion of the canopy;
Fig. 3 is a similar View of another part of the main or body portion of the canopy;
Fig. 4 is a detail view illustrating a portion of the contractable hem ofthe canopy; and
Fig. 5 is a transverse section taken on the line 5--5 of Fig. 4.
Referring to the drawing, in the particular embodiment of the invention therein shown, the main or body portion of the canopy is made from the two pieces of netting, respectively shown in Figs. 2 and 3 of the drawing.
The piece I0 shown in Fig. 2 of the drawing comprises a panel which extends from the lower front edge of the canopy upwardly and over the top.
This piece is substantially rectangular in shape, having an end margin I'I which forms the lower front edge of the canopy, an end margin I2 which is the top rear edge of the panel, and side margins I3 and I4. The corners, where the end margin I2 which forms the top rear marginal edgev of the panel joins the side margins I3 and I4, are curved as at I5, which prevents the formation of horn-like projections at these points in the completed structure.
The piece shown in Fig. 3 of the drawing comprises a long narrow strip I0 having its end tion which extends around the bottom Vof the canopy being attached to the end margin II of the panel I0, to the inclined end margins il and I8 of the member I0, and to,t the short side margin 20 of s-aid member I6. This contractable hem is formed of a narrow strip 2l Y of gathered material, which is so folded as to provide at least two layers of said gathered strip on the outside.
The strip 2| of gathered material is attached to the margins of the parts of the body portion, as above set forth, by two separated rows of stitching 22 and 23, which serve to form a pocket 24 within which is disposed an elastic band 25, which extends entirely around the hem. The edges of the several portions to which the hem is attached may be inturned as at 26 to be caught in the lower row 23 of the stitching.
During the attaching of the hem member to the body portion of the canopy, the elastic band is stretched whereby the hem portion of the canopy will be contracted when the canopy is mounted on the baby carriage, the tension of the elastic band holding the hem portion in close relationship to the outer surface of the top of the body portion of the carriage.
A baby carriage canopy constructed as aforesaid m-ay be economically made, for the reason that the parts can be cut from the material with a minimum of waste; and furthermore! when so constructed, the canopy will drape over the hood of the baby carriage without having large and objectionable folds at various places. This result is obtained because the long side of the part which forms the sides and rear of the canopy is attached to the panel which forms the top and inclined front. By this arrangement a minimum of material is required, but on the other hand, there is provided maximum overall dimension oi the lower edge of the canopy to which the contractable hem is attached.
I claim:
1. A net canopy for baby carriages and the like having its body portion made of two parts, one of said parts comprising a rectangular panel eXtending upwardly from a lower front edge and over the top, and the other part comprising a long narrow member having its ends sharply inclined whereby it is provided with a long side margin and a short side margin, the long side margin of said member being attached to the side margins of the other part and to one end thereof, the bottom of the canopy being bounded by the lower front edge of the rectangular panel and the inclined ends and the short side margin of the other member.
