1 Claim. (Cl. 250) This invention relates generally to improvements in aprons and shields and is directed particularly to an improved apron designed for use by hair dressers for the protection of the clothing of the customer.
A particular object of the present invention is to provide an improved apron designed to cover the shoulders and upper part of the body in the performance of hair dressing operations and provided with means for catching the drippings of hair dressing preparations such as tonics and the like, ointments, etc., and also to provide a means for holding small hair dressers tools such as scissors, combs and the like, in a position convenient to the operator.
Another object of the invention is to provide a hair dressers apron having secured thereto in encircling relation with the neck opening, a stiffened length of material of substantial width having end portions adapted to be drawn together and secured one to the other to cause the material to turn upwardly from the surface of the apron and thus form a channel or trough around the body of the wearer at about shoulder level to function as a receiving means in the manner above stated.
Other objects and advantages of the invention will become apparent and the invention will be best understood from a consideration of the following detailed description taken in connection with the accompanying drawings forming a part of the specification, with the understanding, however, that the invention is not to be limited to the exact details of construction shown and described since obvious modifications will occur to a person skilled in the art.
In the drawings:
Figure 1 is a view in front elevation of an apron constructed in accordance with the present invention and shown applied;
Figure 2 is a view in rear elevation of the applied apron;
Figure 3 is a view in plan of the apron as flattened out with the trough flange ends separated;
Figure 4 is a detail section taken substantially on the line 44 of Figure 3, but showing the position assumed by the trough flange when its ends are secured together after the apron has been applied for use.
Referring now more particularly to the drawing the numeral generally designates a long body of waterproof material such as plastic or the like which is preferably of rectangular outline as illustrated.
Adjacent to one end the body has formed therethrough on its longitudinal center, a neck opening 12 which joins, at the side nearest to the end of the apron, with the division slot 14, one side of which slot extends substantially in line with the radial center of the neck opening, while the other edge of the slot is oblique to such radial line.
In Figure 4 the edge of the opening in the material is designated 16 and as shown such edge has secured thereto two parallel strips 17 of the apron material which form a collar 18.
As shown in Figure 3, the strips 17 forming the collar are extended at the ends of the neck opening to form the tie tapes 20 which preferably taper toward their ends and 2,717,389 Patented Sept. 13, 1955 are'tied around'the neck of the wearer as shown in Figure 1. p
' As is also shown, in Figure 2, the neck band or collar 18 is provided adjacent to one end with a slot 22 for the extension therethrou'gh of one tie 20 so as to facilitate bringing the ends of the ties into the proper position to be secured together. I
Encircling the neck opening in spaced relation therewith is a gutter forming collar which is generally designated 24 and which, when the apron is applied and the neck band is drawn in and secured, is caused to assume a standing up position around the body of the wearer at approximately the heightof the shoulders, as shown in Figures 1 and 2 to form the channel or gutter 26 as shown.
The collar 24 comprises a substantial length of the waterproof material folded on itself along a central longitudinal line to provide the two plies 24a and 24b as shown in Figure 4 and between these two plies is positioned a strip of stiffening material 28, such as crinoline or the like.
The collar is then laid on the face of the apron body 10 and shaped in a curve around the neck opening, being suitably pleated as indicated at 30 along the adjacent free edges of the plies 24a and 24b and the stiffening insert 28 and is then stitched down as indicated at 31 along an edge of an applied covering tape 32, to the body of the body of the apron. The other edge of the tape 32 is likewise stitched down to the face of the apron body as indicated at 33.
The other edge of the tape 32 is stitched directly to the body 10 as indicated at 33. Thus the tape 32 covers the raw edges of the two plies 24a and 24b and the stiffening insert, as is clearly shown in the enlarged sectional view forming Figure 4.
The two end portions 34 and 35 of the collarunit 24 terminate on the two sides of the neck opening 14 as shown in Figure 3 and are formed to be brought into overlapping relation and secured together by means of snap fasteners. One of the ends of the collar 24 carries onehalf of each of two snap fasteners as indicated at 36, while the other end has secured to the outer face thereof the other halves of the fasteners as indicated at 36a. Thus it will be seen that after the apron has been applied and the neck band 18 has been placed in position around the wearers neck and secured by the tapes 20, the two ends 34 and 35 of the gutter forming collar 24 are pulled together and secured in overlapping relation by the snap elements referred to. This drawing together of the ends 34 and 35 will cause the collar 24 to be raised or' turned up on edge so as to assume substantially the position illustrated in Figures 1 and 2. In so turning to the upright position the material of the body 10 is drawn up into a fold as shown in Figure 4, whereby the tape 32 is placed in the bottom of the trough as illustrated.
From the foregoing it will be readily seen that there is provided by the present invention a protective apron which, when applied, will give complete coverage and protection to the wearer against the dropping of hair oil, grease, shampoo or the like from the head onto the wearers clothes. Also the device provides a very convenient means for supporting combs, scissors or the like for use by the hair dresser, thereby greatly facilitating the hair is secured to the sheet along the edge of the opening, the
free ends of said tape projecting to either side of the slot for tying purposes to retain the collar snugly about the neck of the person, a band of the material secured on the outer surface of said sheet and projecting outwardly therefrom in spaced encircling relation with respect tosaid collar and having its ends terminating: adjacent the outer end of the slot, ahair receiving cqllar disposedbe-t.
tween said band and the outer surface of said sheet and secured to said band along the outer edge thereof and to said sheet, separate stifiening means associated with each of said collars to cause the same to stand up from the sheet; and fastening means" at the ends of said hair'receiving collar for securing the same together and the edges of said slot in closely related state.
