1 Claim. 1
This invention relates to a transparent identification window for hats and has for one of its objects the production of a simple and eflicient means for retaining an identification card upon a sweat-band of a hat in a manner whereby the card will be securely held against loss or accidental displacement, and at the same time .it may be easily viewed through the window for the purpose of identification.
A further object of this invention is the production of a simple and efficient transparent identification window secured to the inside of the sweat-band of a hat for receiving an identification card, the entrance opening of the window being close to the folded edge of the sweat-band of the hat, where the band is secured to the hat so that the card will be securely held in position when the sweat-band is folded inside the hat.
Other objects and advantages of this invention will appear throughout the following specification and claim.
Figure 1 is a perspective view looking at the inside of a hat, and showing the sweat-band folded inside the hat and carrying the identification window pocket in which the identification card is mounted;
Figure 2 is a similar perspective view with the sweat-band pulled outside of the hat;
Figure 3 is an enlarged sectional view taken on line 3-3 of Figure 1;
Figure 4 is an enlarged sectional view taken on line 44 of Figure 2;
Figure 5 is a plan view of the identification card removed from the window pocket.
By referring to the drawing, it will be seen that IE] designates a conventional felt or other hat having a conventional sweat-band I I stitched to the hat Ill near the edge of the head opening, as at I2. The sweat-band II is provided with an aperture I3 of suitable shape, preferably of an oblong formation having rounded ends, as shown. An inner transparent flexible sheet I4 of cellophane or the like is secured to the inner face of the band I I along both sides and at its endedges by stitching I5 or may be secured in any desired manner to fix this sheet I4 to the inner face of the band I I and close the aperture I3 to provide a transparent window in the band I I.
An inner transparent flexible sheet I6 is secured by stitching or by any other means to the band II, and to the sheet I4 adjacent the free edge of the band II, and at the ends of the sheets I4 and I6. spaced slightly inwardly of the adjacent edge of the sheet I4 and is preferably notched, as at I8,
The inner edge I! of the sheet I6 is 2 to facilitate the placing of the card I9 between the sheets I4 and I6. This structure forms a window pocket for the card I9.
The card I9 preferably is formed of cardboard or other material, and carries suitable identification information such as a hat number, which hat number may be registered with the retailer of the hat for identification and record purposes.
Also the card I9 may carry the name of the purchaser, his address and telephone number, and it may contain any other identification of advertising information desired. The card I9 is slipped into the window pocket between the sheets I4 and I6 after the band II is pulled outwardly of the hat, the identification information facing outwardly of the band II when it is folded back inside of the hat ID as shown in Figure l. The card I9 may be slipped easily through the open edge of thewindow pocket between the sheets I4 and I6, and the finger of the operator may fit into the notch l8 for gripping and flexing the sheet I4 away from the sheet I6 to open the pocket.
When the band II is folded back within the crown of the hat IO, to a normal position, the card I9 will be firmly held within the window pocket against accidental displacement, since the open edge or side of the window pocket is adjacent the stitching I2, which joins the band II to the hat I0, thereby closing the pocket. The card I0, however, may be replaced or renewed when From the foregoing description, it will be seen that a simple and efiicient means is provided to permit identification of the hat in restaurants, and other places of assembly, where hats are likely to be taken by mistake. The identification card will provide means to facilitate proper identification of the hat, and also will avoid the taking of the wrong hat through inadvertence or accident. It should be noted that the window pocket is formed of moisture resisting material such as cellophane and the like, to prevent soiling of the identification card and to prevent moisture from passing through the sweat-band.
Having described the invention, what is claimed as new is:
As an article of manufacture, a hat having a conventional flexible sweat-band secured to the hat near the edge of the head opening, said sweat-band having an aperture extending longitudinally thereof, an inner transparent flexible sheet secured to the inner face of the band along both sides and. at its end, edges to seal the band 3 around the edges of the aperture, 2. second transparent sheet secured to the band and first mentioned transparent sheet adjacent the free edge of the band and at the ends of the second sheet thereby defining a window pocket, said second sheet having an inner side edge spaced inwardly of the adjacent edge of the first sheet, and the band being adapted to be folded back within the hat to a normal position to abut the open side of the window pocket adjacent the hat and thereby hold the card against accidental displacement from the window pocket.
