Description

n UNITED STATES PATENT EEICE.
PETER N. HoRsLEY, or JERSEY oiTY, NEW JERSEY.
IMPROVEMENT iN VNTILATORS FOR HATS.
Specification forming part of Letters Patent No. 35,446, dated June 3, 1862.
.To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, PETER N. HoRsLEY, of`
` Jersey City, in the county of Hudson and State of New Jersey, have-invented a new and Improved Ventilator for Hats, Snc.; and I do hereby declare that the following is a full, clear,l and exact description of the same, reterenee being had to the accompanying drawline a: w, Fig. 2. Fig. 2 is an inverted plan of the same. n,
Similar letters of reference in both views iny dicate corresponding parts.
This invention consists in the arrangement in the interior cfa hat orother headcovering ofa movable frame, one part of which is attached to the hat or head-covering, While its other part is made to slide in and out in such a manner that whenever the wearer desires the .hat or headY covering can be raised from the head and retained' in `such a position that the air has free access to the interior of the hat or other head-covering all round the head, and that by this action an agreeable and coo 1- ing ventilation is effected.
To enable those skilled in the art to make and use my invention, I will proceed to describe it with reference to the drawings.
A ring, A, made of spring-steel, is secured in the interior of the hat B by means of Spikes a, or in any other convenient manner, its ends being connected by a clasp, b, so that they can be drawn in or out, and that the same ring `can be used for hats of -dift'erent size. This ring is provided with four (more or less) springsockets, 0,'made by fastening to the inner side ofsaid ring two short springs, d, the ends of which are provided with notched strips of metal, so that when said springs are permitted to bear down upon` the inner surface of the rings the notches in their-ends form sockets, and by pressing back the springs the notches are thrown open. It is obvious, however, that these sockets might be constructed in any other convenient manner.
rlhespring-Socketsc form the guides for the upright rods e, to the outer ends of which the second ring, C, is rigidly attached. Therods c are provided with notched bearingsf, and when drawn out to the proper spot said bearings catch over the edge of the ring A inside the spring-sockets c, and the rods are prevented slipping in and ont spontaneously. When it is desired to release them, the springs d have to be forced back, so as to open the'sockets c and to permit vthe bearings f being forced off from the edge of ring A.
The second ring, C, is made of a steel spring, the endsof which are connected by an elastic band, g, so that said ring expands and accommodates itself to the size of different heads, and it is covered with cotton thread or other suitable softand liexible material to prevent the hard metal coming in contact with thehead.
If the wearer of a hat desires to relieve himself of the burning sensation and oppressive heat causedby the sun striking his hat,he lifts the hat up, so that the external air has free access to the interior of the hat, and if his hat is provided with one of my improved venti lators he slides out the second ring, C, andthe hat is retained at Such a distance from the head that the air has free access to the interior of the hat all round the head,as clearly shown in Fig. 1 of the drawings.
It is obvious that this attachment might be used with equal advantage with head-coverings of any other construction besides that hereinbefore described,and represented in the drawings.
Having thus fully described my invention, what I claim as new, and desire to secure'by Letters Patent, is
The arrangement of the sliding ring C, in combination with a hat or head-covering, B, and connected to the same by rods e and springsockets c, or by other equivalent means, substantially as and for the purpose herein shown and described.
PETE R. N. HORSLEY.
