HAT HOLDER Filed Jan. 15, 1942 jzzms'eemn JLL. GFZLZ'Z INVENTORS,
Patented Sept. 15, 1942 UNITED STATES PATENT OFFICE HAT HOLDER Henry F. Beeman and Robert L. Cruit, Denver, 0010.
3 Claims.
I is inexpensive in construction, easily applied to and removed from the top of the car, and which also can be employed as an advertising medium.
With the foregoing and other objects in view,
which will appear as the description proceeds, the invention consists of certain novel details of construction and combinations of parts hereinafter more fully described and pointed out in the claims, it being understood that changes may be made in the construction and arrangement of parts Without departing from the spirit of the invention as claimed.
In the accompanying drawing the preferred form of the invention has been shown.
In said drawing:
Figure 1 is a bottom plan view of a portion of an automobile top to which the present invention is applied.
Figure 2 is a section on line 2--2, Figure 1.
Figure 3 is a section on line 3-3, Figure 1.
Referring to the figures by characters of reference, l designates a flat strip of substantially rigid material, such as sheet metal, and its ends are folded back at 2 to provide sleeves in which are tightly held wire fingers 3 terminating at one end in parallel hooks 4 the points of which are extended toward and partly across the strip. The other ends of the fingers merge into coils 5 located at the ends of a cross-wire 6.
Another cross-wire I of the same length as wire 6 has terminal coils 8 merginginto parallel fingers 9 which have pointed hooks Ill extended toward the wire I.
An endless elastic member II is seated in the coils on the two wires and is easily inserted into or removed from the coils merely by sliding it along the fingers 3 and 9. This member can be an elastic band as shown or an endless light coiled spring.
With the parts assembled as stated the holder can readily be placed in position for use simply by inserting hooks in into the fabric F of the Vehicle top. Using the strip I as a grip or handle the Wire 6 is pulled away from the anchored wire 8, thereby stretching the elastic. When the desired distance has been attained between the wires the hooks 4 are allowed to enter fabric F and obviously the tensioned elastic will hold all of the hooks in engaging position.
With the holder in position a hat can be placed with its bottom up against the vehicle top and the rim inserted between the top and the elastic.
Papers such as maps, cards, etc., can be inserted between the strip l and the top so as to be clamped in. place securely.
The strip I can be used for carrying advertising matter or the like and the entire structure is so inexpensive that it can be utilized at low cost as an advertising medium for free distribution.
It will be noted that the elastic member serves to pull on the opposed hooks and by such action, holds the strip firmly in clamping position against the fabric F.
What is claimed is:
1. A device of the class described including a pair of spaced wires having laterally extending portions terminating in hooks for engagement with the fabric of a vehicle top, a clamping strip carried by the extensions of one of th wires, and means for holding the strip close to the engaged fabric, said means including an elastic connection between the respective wires.
2. A device of the class described including a pair of spaced wires having laterally extending portions terminating in hooks for engagement with the fabric of a Vehicle top, a clamping strip carried by the extensions of one of the wires, and means for holding the strip close to the engaged fabric, said means including an endless elastic member connecting the corresponding means on the respective wires.
3. A device of the class described including a pair of Wires, terminal coils integral therewith, fingers extending laterally from the coils, a hook integral with each finger, a strip connecting the fingers of one wire, and an endless elastic connectlon between the wires removably seated in the coils.
