SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 231,854, dated August 81, 1880.
' Application led January 23, 1880.
To all whom it may concern Be it known that I, EDWARD W. SERRELL, Jr., of' Castleton, in the county of Richmond and State of New York, have invented an Improvement in Felt Hats, of which the following is a specication.
Soft felt hats are usually worn with the central part of the crown depressed or folded inwardly on the top, and this angle between the bottom and the side crown, at the front and back ot' the hat. This angular fold is continually being unfolded as the hatis handled or brushed, and again made when the hat is to be placed on the head. The felt material becomes stretched and rapidly wears or breaks ont at the places where this fold occurs, and it often occurs that there are holes at these portions of' the hat while the remainder ofthe hat is in good preservation. The foregoing statement applies to any quality of felthat, but, of course, the poorer qualities break the quickest.
The object of the present invention is to strengthen or rep-,enforce the hat at the places that are the most exposed to injury, as aforesaid, so as to render the hat more durable and produces a sharp of the depression j add but little to its cost.
The felt hat is made in any usual manner, and it may be entirely completed before my improvement is applied 5 or the said improvement may be added during the progress of the manufacture.
I apply to the inside of the hat, at the parts exposed to injury, as aforesaid, a coating of elastic cement, such as india-rubber, and I eml ploy a re-enforcing or-strengthening lining to such portion of the hat, the same being of thin kid or of woven material, such as silk, or of felted material, and the sameis caused to adhere rmly to the interior of the hat by the elastic cement.
surface of the re-i-nt'orcing material and press the two cemented surfaces together.
In the drawings I have represented, in Figure 1, a section of the hat transversely, and in Fig. 2 a section longitudinally.
In these the re-eilforcing material is represented at a, the same being applied in the manner aforesaid, and serving to strengthen and render more durable the said hat at the place exposed to wear.
rllhe re-enforcing lining may be of greater or less size than the parts that are especially exposed to injury.
I am awa-re that re-enforcing or strengthening pieces have been sewed into garinents,and also made use of on various occasions.
I claim as my invention- As a new article of manufacture, a felt hat having a re-enforcing or strengthening piece secured to the interior surface by elastic cement at the place or places exposed to injury from folding, substantially as set forth.
Signed by me this 16th day of January, A. D. 187 9.
