Description
J. DE GRAZIA Sept. l1, 1951 HEAD COVERING Filed OGf..V 1'7, '1947 lm/ENTOR. BY efe/QA rc/zz www,
rToR/vfy Patented Sept. V11, 1951 UNITED STATE s PATENT OFFICE y(Granted under the act of March 3, 1883, as amended April 30, 1928; 370 0. G. 757) Y l The invention described herein, if patented, may be manufactured and used by or for the Goverment for governmental purposes, without the payment to me of any royalty thereon.
This invention relates to head coverings, such as are generally referred to as hoods, and is directedjto an improvement inthe t of such articles'whether they form an element of a parka or are individually fabricated.
AS will be readily understood this type of garment is. used primarilyV in extremely cold climates and toireach its highest efficiency it is essential that-tu hood nt snugly about the head of the wearer. i
It is accordingly an object of the invention to provide an oversize hood or head covering having means to automatically t the same to the head ot the wearer by contracting the same in a plurality of directions by merely drawing upon a pair of 'strings provided for that purpose, It is'a further object of the invention to provide a relatively large hood combined with means for more or less universally adjusting the same to thehead of the wearer, to thereby greatly reduce the number of head sizes to be kept in stock.
The preferred form of the invention is illustrated in the attached drawings, in which:
Figure 1 is a perspective view of the hood as it appearsinuse;
Figure 2 is a rear elevational view of the disclosure of Figure 1;
Figure 3 is a rear elevational view of the hood separate from a parka and with the drawstrings in their inoperative or relaxed position;
Figure 4 is an enlarged sectional view taken on line 4--4 of Figure 3, and
Figure 5 is an enlarged detail view of a portion of the interior of the hood at a point where one of the drawstrings passes to the exterior of the hood.
As indicated above the hood of the present invention may be fabricated as a permanent part of another garment. such as a parka, or may be constructed as -a separate article of wearing apparel. In -this particular illustration the hood is shown as forming a" part of a parka, the latter being indicated by the numeral I and the former by numeral 2.
The hood is fabric-ated in the general form of the human head by forming suitably shaped side sections 3 and connecting them with one "or more central panels l also suitably shaped to provide the desired contour in the end product.
2 The front of the hood is provided with the usual face opening 5.
The essence of the present invention resides in .the arrangement of the means for drawing the hood down to the desired size and shape to snugly t the head of the wearer, and to this end a pair of drawstrings is arranged in the form of an inverted V or arch and is positioned on the back of the hook slightly above the neck portion. These drawstrings are indicated by the numeral 6 and are mounted in an inverted V- shaped or arched channel formed by stitching or otherwise securing a strip of flexible material 'l on the inner surface of the hood. The inner end of each drawstring is secured at the remote end of the channel as indicated by the numeral 8, and the opposite end of the string extends to the exterior of the hood through an eyelet 9. After the hood is placed upon the head of the wearer the drawstrings 6 are pulled,vand in ythis action the anchored ends 8 are drawn toward each other, but due to the inverted V-shaped arrangement of the strings they serve to pull the central portion of the hood downwardly toward the base of the neck and thus contract the hood in a plurality of directions to cause the same to be brought into snug engagement with the head and effectively confine the heat generated by the body as well as excluding the entrance of cold air.
While in the present instance the drawstrings are illustrated as tied at the back of the hood after the latter has been drawn into its operative position, size and shape, they may of course be passed around the neck of the wearer and tied at the front portion of the hood if so desired.
What I claim is:
1. A head covering in the form of a hood comprising head and neck portions, said head portion provided with a face opening, said hood adapted to otherwise inclose the entire head and neck of the wearer, a channel of inverted V-shape positioned on the back of the hood with its apex located in the head portion and the lower ends 2. A head covering in the form of an oversizer hood comprising head and neck p'ortions, said head portion provided with a face opening, said hood adapted to otherwise inclose the entire head and neck of the wearer, an inverted V-shaped cent the lower ends of the arms of the channel,
and drawstrings mounted in the channel extending through said openings andadapted to draw the hood into a snug t about lthe wearers head.
3v A head covering in the form of an oversize hood closed at the top and on all sides except for a fae opening, a strip of material n the form of an inverted V attached to the back of the hood with the apex and arms spaced above the lower edge of the hood and providing an inverted V-shaped channel, said hood provided with openings adjacent the lower ends of the arms of the channel, anddrawstrings mounted 4. in the channel and extending through said openings.
