Description
April 1946- M. RASMUSSEN I 2,398,246 I HAIR PROTECTING BATHING CAP Filed 001;. 27, 1945 Patented Apr. 9, 1946 UNITED STATES PATENT OFFICE 2,398,246 a I I HAIR PROTECTING BATHING CAP Mary Rasmussen, Sioux City, Iowa Application October 27, 1945, Serial No. 625,071 7 (01. 2-68) 1 Claim My invention relates to a bathing cap.
An object of my invention is to provide a bathing cap which utilizes certain absorbing members so arranged to absorb water before it can contact the hair.
A further object of my invention is to provide a bathing cap which can be used incombination with a rubber or other bathing cap, and which includes means for securing it firmly about the head.
A further object of my invention is to provide additional protecting members in addition to the absorbing members so that the water cannot pass inwardly.
A further object of my invention is to provide the above mentioned objects in a simple construction and with suitable attaching members.
With these and other objects in view, my invention consists in the construction, arrange,- ment, and combination of the various parts of my device, whereby the objects contemplated are attained, as hereinafter more fully set forth, pointed out in my claim, and illustrated in the accompanyin drawing, in which:
Figure 1 is a side elevation of the arrangement as attached to the head,
Figure 2 is a rear view of the same,
Figure 3 is a sectional view taken substantially through the longitudinal center of the arrangement,
Figure 4 is a detail,
Figure 5 is a sectional view taken substantially along the lines 5-5 of Fig. 3, and
Figure 6 is an enlarged detail of the rear flap.
My invention contemplates principally the provision of a highly absorbent material so arranged and positioned at certain portions of the head so that the seepage inwardly of any water will be caught by the material and absorbed thereby before it reaches the hair.
I have used the character ID to represent the top of the cap and which represents a highly absorbent material preferably made of oil-treated chamois skin. The top portion l9 merges into the front portion El, and inwardly attached against the member II is the thin annular rubber member l2 which terminates at I3 and at the lower point M. The member I 2 is open at the forehead portion of the cap and converges toward the rear of the cap into the integral and side portions 15.
An inner ply of chamois skin [6 terminates at IT at either side of the cap and is stitched or otherwise attached along the line I 8 to the upper portion thereof, and by virtue of this construction the member l6 covers'the major portion of the rubber member l5. The member l6 continues intothe further substantially peripheral flap I 9, which flap l9 terminates at 20. The member I 6, as well as the rubber portion 15, passes substantially around the major part of the head and the member Ill continues'into the furtherrear and side, portions 2| which merge with the front portion H. The portions 2| continue into the looped portion 22 which portion passes entirely around the peripheral lower boundaries of the cap and to which are attached the small loops 23.
Passing within the looped portion 22 is the continuous tieing band 24 which passes therethrough and which also continues through the aforesaid loops 23 and continues as shown in Fig. 4 past the split portion at the rear of the cap, which split portion partially divides the portions 2|, with one end of the split portion being represented by the character 25 and the other end continuing into the substantially triangularshaped overlapping portion 26 to which is attached at 21 the cord 28. A small circular fastener 29 is attached to one of the portions 2| as shown, and which member 29 is spaced a slight distance from the same.
Attached centrally to the forward portion of the cap is a further member 30 which is similar to the member 29. The rubber portion I 5 extends to the edges of the flap 26 in order to provide a waterproof junction.
It will now be noted that the longitudinal loop member 22, as well as the marginal flaps I9, which members are made of highly absorbent chamois skin, will be snugly engaged against the peripheral boundaries of the head and can be attached as low down as required to cover practically all of the hairon the head.
In use, the cap is placed snugly over the hair, and the two forward extremities of the tieing band 24 are drawn snugly forwardly at the forward part of the head, which causes a double action in that the loops 22 and the flaps l9 will be drawn against the head by the combined pulling action within the loops 22, as well as the pulling action through the outer loops 23. As a result, the combined effect will provide a snug engagement. The forward ends of the member 24 are then wound about beneath the member 30 a suflicient number of times to provide enough friction to prevent loosening thereof. In the rear of the cap the cord 28 provides the same feature to draw the flap 28 snugly over the edge 25 after the above mentioned the rearwardly extending portions of the hair I will be covered by means of the triple layer comprising the inner chamois skin Hi, the rearwardly extending protecting rubber portion l5, and the further outer chamois skin portion 2|. Also the lower marginal portions will protect the lower edges. I should be specifically understood that an ordinary rubber or other bathing cap, as indicated by the character 2|, should be worn over this cap.
Any water entering beneath the lower boundaries of the cap will be quickly absorbed by the absorbent material, which will thereby prevent entrance of the same to the hair, with the additional rubber portions l2 and [5 serving to further protect the hair. It will be noted that the absorbent material is placed at the critical portions so that any tendency of water to seep therein will be prevented,
It will be understood that other types of fas tenings can be employed without departing from the essential spirit of the invention; namely, that of the absorbing qualities, etc. It should also be noted that the provision of the absorbing cap with the inner lined rubber members provides protection due to the absorbing features to the entire major surfaces involved. It will also be noted that I have provided a simple cap structure which can be easily manufactured.
Some changes may be made in the construction and arrangement of the parts of my invention without departing from the real spirit and purpose of my invention, and it is my intention to cover by my claim any modified forms of structur or use of mechanical equivalents which may be reasonably included within their scope.
I claim as my invention:
A hair protecting bathing cap comprising an outer water absorbent member including an annular head encircling portion, a waterproof memher attached inwardly of said head encircling portion and conforming in extent therewith, a second water absorbent member attached inwardly of said waterproof member and extending over the rear and side portions of the cap and terminating short of the front of the cap, providing a forehead waterproof engaging portion at the front of the cap; the cap further comprising a lower marginal water absorbent band for engaging the head throughout the extent of said head encircling portion, the said head encircling portion, waterproof member, and second water absorbent member having their upper edges contiguous and sloping downwardly from the front to the rear of the cap.
MARY RASMUSSEN.
