CORD-EDGE FOR HAT-BRIMS.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 233,912, dated November 2, 1880.
Application filed May 4, 1880. (No model.)
.To all whom it may concern Be it known that I, JOHN S. BANcRoF'r, of New York, in the county and State of New York, have invented a new and Improved Oord-Ed ge for Hat-Brims, of which the following is a specication.
Myinvention relates to improvements in the arrangement for curving up the edge ot' soft hat-brims; and it consists in applying an endless cord to the brim, and in a new way ol' securing it in place, so that it will have perfect liberty to adjust itself around the brim and hold the latter always properly contracted.
Theinven tion is applicable to soft-felt, straw, or other flexible hats.
In the accom )an 'ino' drawings Figure 1.
o t: 5 C
represents a top view of a hat having au upcurved brim. Fig. 2 represents a bottom view ofthe hat with the lapped-over portion of the brim removed and exposing the cord, and Fig. 3 is a cross-section of Fig. l on line a' x.
Referring to the drawings, Arepresents the crown of the hat, B, the tip-curved flexible brim. In the edge of the brim, under a lappedunder portion, a, is placed a cordJwbnwhich is collginudugsmor endless and of less diameter 'than the brim B. To set the cord C iu place the brim is pressed upward into acurved form, as shown, so as to make its diameter about correspond to that of the cord O, which is then placed against the under side ofthe brim and secured in place by a thread, b, which is sewed directly through the brim, but whipped over the cord without passing through it. By this mode of fastening the cord is held in connection with the brim, so that there is no liability of its slipping or moving' laterally; but it is permitted to slip longitudinally around the brim, and thus adjust itself in place, whereby, in case the cord shrinks, it will draw the brim all around evenly, instead of in places, as when the cord is stitched to the brim. By making the cord continuous it braces or supports the brim in its upward-curved position. A llap, a, on the brim is folded over the cord to conceal the same and sewed fast at its edge. It will be observed that the cord is connected with the brim by passing the thread b through and through the brim and leaving the cord free to contract in the direction of its length; 5o and in case a binding is used to inclose the cord, instead ot` covering it under the ilap a the thread is whipped over the cord O and passed through the edge of thebrim, as before. The object in thus connecting the liexible cord O with the brim, instead of sewing through and through it in the usual manner, is to avoid attaching it in such a manner as to prevent it from contracting freely without affecting the brim. By this arrangement I succeed in giving form to the brim without the use of metal, which will discolor the hat when Wet through with rain.
l am aware that hat-briins have been provided with stiffening -cords, and also that brirns have been made with rolled or turnedover edges, thus dispensing with the usual binding. I therefore make no cla-i111 to either of said features, broadly; but, owing to the difficulty attending the insertion ot' the shaping-cord, no soft hat-brims, I believe, have heretofore been made with a shaping-cord and a folded edge.Y
What I claim isl. The method of finishing soft hats consisting in attaching to the brim an endless cord, C, of less diameter than the brim, by a series of stitches, l), which latter pass through the brim and are whipped over the cord O to hold the latter in place without preventing its free longitudinal movement, and finally folding the edge of the brim over said cord and stitching it, substantially as set forth.
2. As a new article ot' manufacture, a soft hat the brim of which is provided with an endless cord, C, of less diameter than the brim, said cord being attached directly to the brim by a Whipped thread, b, and the brim lapped over said cord and stitched, to give a nished appearance to the hat, substantially 9o as set forth.
JOHN S. BANOROFT.
