' SHIELD Filed July 25, 1939 LAURA uf/E/STfRBE/PG Patented May 13, 1941 UNITED STATES PATENT OFFICE SHIELD Laura J. Heisterberg, Sedalia, Mo. Application July 25, 1939, Serial No. 286,455 V 2 Claims.
This invention relates to shields, and has for one of its objects the production of a simple and efficient device to be worn when a persons hair is being subjected to a stream of hot air for drying purposes, the device being so constructed and arranged as to protect the face and neck from direct contact by the hot air stream, thereby preventing discomfort to the user.
A further object of this invention is the .production of a shield which isadjustable to various head sizes and is provided with a flexible apron adjacent the neck portion to permit free movement of the head of the wearer from side to side without danger of displacement of the shield caused by the striking of the shield by the shoulders of the wearer.
Other objects and advantages of the present invention will appear throughout the following specification and claims.
In the drawing:
Figure 1 is a side elevational View of the shield and drying hood, certain parts being shown in section;
Figure 2 is a top plan view of the shield;
Figure 3 is fragmentary perspective view of the open end of the shield;
Figure 4 is an enlarged longitudinal sectional view taken on line 44 of Figure 2;
Figure 5 is a fragmentary sectional view illustrating the fastening means for the open end of the shield.
By referring to the drawing, it will be seen that In designates the body of the shield which is preferably formed of cardboard, asbestos, or any suitable material, and constitutes a frustoconical shield which is adapted to fit around the head of a wearer, as shown in Figure l. The inner edge of the body I is provided with an outwardly rolled bead ll through which a cored or other similar means I2 is threaded, as shown.
The ends of the body ID are adapted to be spaced, as shown in Figures 2 and 4, and one end is provided with a series of radiating perforated or scored lines l3 for producing a plurality of detachable segments M which segments may be removed to provide a proper fit of the shield around the head of the wearer. Each segment 14 carries a button or similar securing means ,I and the free end 16 of the cord l2 may be coiled thereabout to secure the ends of the body I0 together. The cord I2 is preferably secured in the bead II in a manner to prevent the accidental removal of the cord 12 from the body H).
A fabric apron I1 is stitched or otherwise secured along one side edge to one end of the body ID, as at l8, and this apron l1 constitutes a soft overlapping means at the respective ends of the body ID, as shown in Figure 2. The apron I! may be gathered and folded over the free end 16 of the cord l2 as at I9, to freely slide thereover and to span the respective ends of the body ID.
The apron ll will provide an expantible means which will be flexible in contrast to the stiff body II] which forms the shield, and this flexible apron I1 is adapted to fit overthe back of the neck in a manner to permit thewearer to easily move the head from side to side without the outer edges 20 of the shield coming into contact with the shoulders of the wearer. As stated above, the removable or detachable segments M will permit the' shields to be placed upon the market in uniform sizes and by removing or detaching the segments [4, the sizes of the shield may be varied to comfortably fit small, medium, or large head sizes.
It should be understood that certain detail changes in the construction of the device may be employed without departing from the spirit of the invention, so long as such changes fall within the scope of the appended claims.
Having described the invention, what I claim as new is:
1. -A shield of the class described comprising a stiff body having an opening for the head and separated at its respective ends to provide a slit extending from the head opening to the outer edge of the body, a retaining cord passing around the head opening, and a flexible apron spanning and closing the slit between the respective ends of the shield and adapted to lie snugly upon the back of the neck of the user and conform to the contour of the neck to protect the neck and at the same time permit the head to move freely from side to side and prevent the stiff body of I the shield from scraping upon the neck.
2. A shield of the class described comprising a stifi body having an opening for the head and separated at its respective ends to provide a slit extending from the head opening to the outer edge of the body, one end of the body being provided with a plurality of detachable segments to provide" a head size adjusting means, a retaining cord passing around the head opening, and a flexible apron spanning and closing the slit between the respective ends of the shield and adapted to lie snugly upon the back of the neck of the user and conform to the contour of the neck to protect the neck and at the same time permit the head to move freely from side to side and prevent the stiff body of the shield from scraping upon the neck.
