HAT HOLDER Filed July 11, 1938 INVENTOR. 6% 7774/7 as'fe/fl BY 2 a ATTORNEYS Patented-Feb.27, 1940 n I i g UNITED, STAT S rAr NT ornca Herman Epstein',Kansas City; Mo., assignor to Ideal Products Company Application 'July'll, 1938, Serial No. 2 18,623 9 Claims. I (01. 21'1 a2) This invention relates'to hat holders and the cup l2 may haveits neck 14 securely gripped primary object is to provide a portable hat holdwhen the latter ismoved to the narrower end er which may be attached to fabric supports or of opening .Ill. The wider end. of opening l to'elements having smooth outer surfaces, such allows quick removalof the suction cup sothat as automobile windows, walls of .a room, or the hereinafter described securing element may smooth woodwork, said hat holder being probe used in lieu of the member l2. I vided with novel securing means for engaging A laterally extending flange I6 is integral with practically any surface, to the end that the hat base 6 at one'end thereof. This said end is norholder may be conveniently placed'whenever demally the lower one and the flange I6 is arsired. g v ranged to engage the inner face of the hat band Another important object of this invention when a hat is hung on the holder. A number is the provision of a hat holder of the afor'emenofnodules 18 are embossed in flange 16 so as to tioned character, which has as a part thereof, a serve as gripping elements for the hat; specially formed spring which yieldably holds the A longitudinally arched clamping element 26 a clamping element of the holder in a normal pois hingedly mounted upon base 6 through the sition and which has a portion thereof serving medium of pintle 22 which passes through ears as a securing element when the hat holder is 24, turned out from the .longitudinal'edges'of to be attached to material of a nature which base 6. One endofclamping element 29 is normay be pierced by a pin. mally in engagement with one face "of base 6 Another important aim' of this invention is to so that when a hat is in position in the-holder,
provide ahat holder which has a specially formed the brim, thereof will lie between base 6' and the base plate wherein is provided an elongated opensaid end of clamping element 20. This end of ing for removably holding a suction cup, which clamping element 20 is provided with a unique cup may be employed to maintain the holder foot-structureiwhich cooperates with flange it, in operative position when the aforesaid securing in further securingthe hat in place. This foot 25 element cannot be used; structure comprises a bracket 26 of spring metal A yet further aim of the instant invention is that isrigidly secured to clamping element 2!] to provide a hat holderhaving' a base plate, a by tongue 28. I l f v clamping element, hingedly mounted thereon, A roller 3llis rotatably carried bybracket 2t 30 and cooperating hat engaging device in the naand normally rests against the. peaks of nodules 30 ture of laterally extended flange and a coopl8. ;When a hat is resting on flange l5, bracket crating roller carried ;-by the base plate and 2B flexesand exerts a yielding force thereon. clamping element respectively, which flange has Finger engaging member 32 is apart of clampa plurality of nodules embossed therein to serve ing element 20 and extends upwardly and down- 35 as gripping structures for the hat being held. wardly therefrom as illustrated in Figs. land 2. 35
Minor objects will appear during the course A barrel 34 is formed at the line of juncture of the following specification, referring to the between element 20 and member 32, which baraccompanying drawing wherein: rel receives pintle 22. The central portion of Figure 1 is a perspective view of a hat holder barrel 3% is cut away so as to provide clearance 40 embodying the present invention. for the spring which not only serves as means 40 Fig. 2 is a longitudinal, central sectional View for yieldably maintaining element 20 in its northrough the holder, showing the same supported mal position, but provides a securing element 35. by a sheet of fabric through the medium of the Spring 38 has a rebent section 40 formed therespecially formed securing element. in intermediate its ends, which rests against the Fig. 3 is an end elevation of the holder; and, surface of base 6. The end of spring 38, serving 45 Fig. 4 is an inverted end elevation of the hat as a securing element 36, is sharpened and bent holder illustrating the nature of the cooperatto present a form substantially as illustrated in ing securing element. Figs. 1 and 2. The U -shaped form presents one The hat holder comprises'a base plate 6 which leg that may be projected through slot 8 and is provided with a longitudinally extending slot when in such position, may pierce a fabric sheet 50 8 adjacent to one end thereof, and a longitudi- 42. The inherent resiliency of spring 38 has a nally extending elongated opening Ill intermetendency to withdraw the portion of securing diate the ends of base B. This opening ID is apelement 36 which has been projected through slot preciablynarrower at one end thereof than at 8 and therefore, a rigidassembly, including fabe the opposite end, so that a conventional suction ric 42, is afforded as a means for effectively carbile or the like may be gripped between parts end thereof;
t and 36 if it is desired to hang the rack on such a support. When element 36 is hung over the edge of a support, suction cup 12 serves to preclude accidental upward movement and displacement. i
When element 36 is in the position shown in Fig. 2,. the specially formed cooperating pin 46 secured to, the bottom of flange I6 is forced into fabric 42. 'Pin 45 is soldered or welded to flange it as at 48, and a part of pin d5 intermediate its ends is rebent upon itself to afford a finger'engaging bight 50 that projects beyond the outer edge of flange l5. Pin 46 precludes lateral movement of the bottom portion of the holder after element 36 has been forced into fabric or the like 42.
In some instances it is desirab-leto render the hat holder a permanent fixture, and when such is the case, holes 52 may be pierced'through base 6 to receive nails, brads, screws, or similar fastening units.
Flange I6 is specially formed along its line of juncture with base 6. A longitudinally arched groove E l is created in flange M5 in juxtaposition to base 6 and an ear 5.6 is struck from flange It to cooperate with the arched portion of flange H3 in holding a coat hanger, the hook of which is positioned behind car 56 and in groove ti t when a hanger is to be mounted upon the holder.
An additional hook 5B is formed from material struck from base v5 and bent downwardly to a point beyond one end thereof. This hook might also be utilized in carrying'a coat hanger or the like, and is created without the use of additional material over that which normally is required to produce base 6.
