United States Patent NECK PROTECTOR Henry G. Randolph, Houston, Tex.
Application November 9, 1954, Serial No. 467,809
1 Claim. (Cl. 2--50) This invention relates to a neck protector and more specifically provides a device for use by barbers for preventing hair from falling down around the neck when the wearer is receiving a haircut.
An object of this invention is to provide a neck protector in the form of a disposable member securable around the neck of a wearer to prevent hair from falling downwardly around the neck when the wearer is receiving a haircut.
Another object of this invention is to provide a neck protector having novel and improved construction wherein an adhesive attaching means is provided for temporarily securing the device to the wearers neck in sealed relation thereby preventing passage of hair downwardly around the neck during the hair cutting operation.
Yet another important object of the present invention is to provide a neck protector that is simple in construction, easy to apply, disposable, comfortable to the wearer, effieient in its operation, well adapted for its intended purpose, and extremely inexpensive to manufacture so that the device will be economically feasible for the use of a single protector for each customer receiving a haircut.
These, together with other objects and advantages which will become subsequently apparent reside in the details of construction and operation as more fully hereinafter described and claimed, reference being had to the accompanying drawings forming a part hereof, wherein like numerals refer to like parts throughout, and in which:
Figure 1 is a perspective view of the neck protector of the present invention positioned around a persons neck preparatory to receiving a haircut;
Figure 2 is a longitudinal, vertical sectional view taken substantially upon a plane passing along section line 2-2 of Figure 1 showing the details of construction of the neck protector;
Figure 3 is a perspective view of the neck protector in assembled relation taken from the rear thereof;
Figure 4 is an enlarged detailed view taken substantially upon aplane passing along section line 4--4 of Figure 3 showing the structural details of the overlapping portion of the neck protector of the present invention; and
Figure 5 is a perspective view from the rear showing the manner in which the neck protector of the present invention is attached to the customers neck in close surrounding relation to prevent passage of small pieces of hair downwardly around the neck.
Referring now specifically to the drawings, it will be seen that the numeral generally designates the neck protector of the present invention. The neck protector 10 generally includes a circular piece of material 10 having free ends 14 which are adapted to overlap each other and a circular opening generally designated by the numeral 16 that is defined by an upstanding flange 18 on the material 12. The upstanding flange 18 is secured to 2,778,024 Patented Jan. 22, 1957 the inner surfaceof a cylindrical member 20 having adhesive 22 on the inner surface thereof. The cylindrical member 20 has ends terminating at the end 14 of the flexible member 12 and the opening designated by the numeral 16 receives the neck 24 of the person 26 receiving a haircut, shampoo or any other operation wherein foreign material would normally fall downwardly around the neck 24 thereby causing extreme discomfort to the person 26 receiving the sartorial operation. The adhesive surface 22 extends completely around the cylindrical member 20 wherein the adhesive surface 22 will adhere to the neck 24 of the wearer 26 and when the ends 14 of the member 12 are overlapped, the adhesive will engage the outer surface thereof for securing the cylindrical member 20 in encircling relation to the neck 24 of the wearer 26.
The principal member 12 may be constructed of any suitable lightweight paper material and the neckband or cylindrical member20 may be constructed of any suitable adhesive substance and the member 12 should be sufficient in size to cover the wearers shoulders and portions of the back and chest. The neckband should be substantially one inch in width and long enough to assure the encircling of various sizes of necks. The ad hesive surface 22 should not be of such a strength which would cause any discomfort to the wearer when it is removed but yet of suflicient strength to retain the device on the neck of the wearer in sealed relation thereby preventing passage of small bits of hair or the'like. The device of the present invention Will also eliminate the use of many forms of fabric towels now used in barber shops and the like.
From the foregoing, the construction and operation of the device will be readily understood and further explanation is believed to be unnecessary. However, since numerous modifications and changes will readily occur to those skilled in the art, it is not desired to limit the invention to the exact construction shown and described, and accordingly, all suitable modifications and equivalents may be resorted to, falling within the scope of the appended claim;
What is claimed to be new is as follows:
A neck protector for use by barbers comprising an enlarged sheet of flexible material having a centrally disposed neck-receiving opening therein, said opening being defined by an upstanding continuous flange, said sheet of material having a laterally extending entrance slit forming an entrance to said opening, said slit having free edges disposed in overlapped relation, and an upstanding memher having an adhesive covering on the entire inner surface thereof, said upstanding member being equal in length to the upstanding flange and adhesively secured to the outer surface thereof, said upstanding flange extending less than one-half of the vertical height of the upstanding member whereby the adhesive surface above the upper edge of the upstanding flange will secure the upstanding member to a persons neck in sealed relation and releasably retain the edges of the slit in the sheet of material and the ends of the upstanding member in overlapped relation, thereby forming a protector to prevent foreign material from engaging the neck and shoulders of a person receiving a hair cut.
