4 Claims. (Cl. 13249) The present invention relates to improvements in ladies hair nets and the method for making same.

The principal object of this invention is to provide a novel and improved construction for ladies hair nets which are made of a length of web of netting material of uniform width, affording means to form said piece of material into a shape which when distended, will lend itself to the contour of a coiffure, have a head opening to properly fit as an encirclement of the forehead and back of the head and determine a volume which is the major portion of an ellipsoid, as it may be called.

Another object hereof is to provide a novel and improved construction for ladies hair nets of the character mentioned which are made of woven netting material of uniform width including no additional filaments than has been usual in the makeup of such netting heretofore, but in so associating the selvage filaments with the body filaments as to give the selvage filaments the function to serve as means to accomplish forming a semiellipsoidal format into a formation which is the major portion of an ellipsoid, as such forms into which said web piece is made to assume, may be termed.

Still another object hereof is to provide a novel and improved hair net of the type set forth and the manner for making same, which is reasonably cheap to accomplish and efiicient in carrying out the purposes for which they are intended.

Other objects and advantages will become apparent as this disclosure proceeds.

in the accompanying drawings forming part of this specification, similar characters of reference indicate corresponding parts in all the views.

Fig. 1 shows a length of netting which will serve to rake a hair net in accordance with the teachings of this invention.

Fig. 2 is a magnified pictorial view of a fragment of said netting, showing the manner in which its filaments are associated.

Fig. 3 shows said piece of netting material formed cup-shape by making certain knots therein as will be explained.

Fig. 4 is a top plan view of Fig. 3.

Fig. 5 is a bottom view of Fig. 3, after the selvage filaments included in said piece of netting material have been shortened.

Fig. 6 is like Fig. 5, with certain knots made therein as will be set forth.

Pig. 7 shows pictorially, the finished hair net; Fig. 6 being a bottom view of Fig. 7.

in the drawings, the numeral designates a woven web of netting; said web being of uniform width and formed with a selvage filament along each longitudinal edge thereof as indicated by the numerals 16 and 17', and biased warp and weft filaments; all warps 18 being spaced and all wefts 19 being spaced so that the resulting web 15 is a netting. Wherever a warp filament crosses a weft filament, they are knotted in any desired fashion to be secured to one another and such is indicated at 20. Wherever any of the body filaments are at a selvage filament, the construction is such that the association at such points permits free movement of the

selvage filaments

16, 17, with respect to the other filaments constituting the web 15, as indicated at 21.

Starting with a length of this netting material suitable for making the hair net 22 to have a desired head size determined by the perimeter of its mouth23, all the ends of the

filaments

16, 17, 18 and 19 at one end of the piece 15, are knotted together as indicated at 24. Likewise, all the ends of the filaments of the web at the other end thereof, are knotted together as indicated at 25. This forms the netting piece 15 into the semiellipsoidal format shown in Fig. 3. The next step to form the hair net shown in Fig. 7, is to shorten the lengths of each of the

selvage filaments

16, 17 by pulling each at a point thereon respectively between the

knots

24, 25 to form the respective bights 16 and 1'7 as shown in Fig. 5, until the mouth 23 is of the desired headsize. A knot is now made securing both runs of each of said bights as shown at 16" and 17" respectively. Then the excess material of said bights is cut away and the hair not shown in Fig. 7 is the result, having the shape of the major portion of an ellipsoid whose axes are of a size commensurate with a coilfured ladys head.

This invention is capable of numerous forms and various applications without departing from the essential features herein disclosed. It is therefore intended and desired that the embodiment and method for making same described herein shall be deemed illustrative and not restrictive and that the patent shall cover all patentable novelty herein set forth; reference being had to the following claims rather than to the specific description herein to indicate the scope of this invention.

1 claim:

I. The method of making a hair net of a substantially rectangular piece of netting web having selvage filaments in slidable relation with its body filaments, comprising the steps of securing together all the ends of all the filaments which are along one end of said netting piece, securing together all the ends of all the filaments which are along the other end of said netting piece and shortening the lengths of the selvage filaments.

2. The method of making a hair net of a substantially rectangular piece of netting web having selvage filaments in slidable relation with its body filaments, comprising the steps of tying into a knot all the ends of all the filaments which are along one end of said netting piece, tying into a knot all the ends of all the filaments which are along the other end of said netting piece and shortening the lengths of the selvage elements by pulling each of them intermediate their respective ends to form a bight in each of them away from the other elements and then knotting each bight near other filaments.

3. A hair not made of a substantially rectangular piece of netting web; said netting comprising intersecting sets of spaced filaments between selvage filaments; said selvage filaments being longitudinally slidably mounted on the other filaments; all ends of all the filamerits which are along one end of said netting piece, being secured together; all end of all the filaments which are along the other end of said netting piece, being secured together; said selvage filaments being mounted on all the other filaments and being shorter in length than the length of said netting piece, whereby the volume determined by the hair net is the major part of an ellipsoid.

4. A hair net made of a substantially rectangular piece of netting web; said netting comprising intersecting sets of spaced filaments between selvage filaments;

saidselvage filamentsbeing longitudinally slidably' mounted on the other filaments; all ends of all the filaments which are along one end of the netting piece, being tied together in aknot; all ends of, all the filaments which are" along the other end, of said netting piece, being tied together ina knot; the length ofthe' selvage filaments being'originallythe length of said netting piece respectively and means on ea c hselvage filament holding a part thereof in lateral extension of, said filament, so that the length of each of said selvage, filament is shorter than it was originally; whereby the volumes determined by the hairnet is the major, part of" an ellipsoid.
