Definitions

  • a bathing cap has a marginal edging strip and a sealing strip joined under pressure to the cap while in the raw paste condition prior to vulcanization to improve the bond between the materials.
  • bathing caps generally are provided with a sealing strip that is placed along the opening edge or near the edge, being set on after the vulcanization step. To achieve this, the strip is bonded onto the cap. This process involves two drawbacks. On the one hand, the bonding may not remain perfect in the course of time, and the strip may become detached. On the other hand, because the strip is joined to the cap itself over its whole width, it undergoes irregular stresses, and the seal often leaves something to be desired.
  • the process of this invention eliminates these drawbacks, ensuring perfect joining of the strip to the cap, and a very substantial improvement of the seal of the cap and its application to the wearer's head.
  • This process of placement is essentially characterized in that it consists in a roll-on self-winding operation in one or more passes, for attachment of an edging strip constituting a decorative rim around the opening of the cap, and of a sealing strip itself, the strip being in the form of a raw paste, before the cold-vulcanizing process, so that the said strip constitutes a free-floating portion, fitted in as a lining inside the opening edge of the cap, and only joined marginally to the said cap.
  • the edging and the sealing strip are delivered at a right angle to the self-welding roller, by special guides and channels which are suitably oriented so that the said edging and the said sealing strip are always positioned with precision with reference to the cap and the rollers.
  • fixation inside the cap of a second strip is provided, in a manner substantially parallel and at a specific distance from the first strip, the said second strip being positioned, set in place and roll welded in the same conditions as the first.
  • the marginal edge of the sealing strip fixed to the cap is engaged between the edging strip that straddles the cap edge and the cap itself.
  • the sealing strip is joined according to the same principle of self-welding by rolling on floating part of the edging that is not welded to the cap edge. 7
  • the sealing strip is joined to the edging strip at the outside of the part thereof that is fixed to the cap edge.
  • the invention likewise comprises, of course, as novel products of manufacture, caps made by the said process and comprising application of one or the other of its characteristic features.
  • FIG. 1 is a schematic view in transverse section, showing the self-welding device for placement of an edging strip and a sealing strip on the opening edge of a bathing cap.
  • FIGS. 3, 4 and 5 show schematically in cross section different ways of carrying out the invention and allowing different ways of attaching the sealing strip with reference to the cap opening.
  • FIGS. 1 and 2 there is shown at l the edge of the bathing cap, at 2 the edging strip mounted to straddle the said edge, and at 3 the sealing strip.
  • Number 4 indicates the support which allows the holding and the passage of the cap edge as it moves opposite welding rollers 5 and 6 disposed on either side of the edge of the cap.
  • t 7 and 8 there are two special guides or channels which guide the edging strip 2 as it passes continuously before rollers 5 and 6 and which issues from a receptacle that continuously supplies the said edging strip.
  • At 9 there is a special guide that allows guidance of sealing strip 3, which also is extracted from a continuous supply.
  • the rolling on self-welding operation is effected while the paste that constitutes the cap, edging and sealing strips is still raw, i.e. the operation takes place before the vulcanization.
  • the mutual assembly of the three elements is thus made very easy, the pressure of the roller being determined to obtain adequate selfwelding.
  • FIG. 4 there is a floating portion of the edging strip, marked 2a, and it is onto this part 2a that a marginal portion of strip 3 is roll welded.
  • strip 3 is joined to edging strip 2, the latter having first been placed in such a way as to enclose the edge of cap I.
  • the same process can also be used to provide a second sealing strip, no longer on the edge of the cap opening but inside it, the said supplementary strip being positioned at a certain distance from the first strip, e.g. substantially parallel to the first.
  • the sealing strip thus placed allows a certain freedom of positioning on the wearer's head, independently of the placing of the cap itself, which ensures a better application and a better seal, the said strip being joined to the cap in a manner that is an improvement over joining of prior art in which the said strip was bonded to the inside of the cap after vulcanizing.
  • a bathing cap of elastic material having a decorative edging of generally U-shaped cross section attached to the margin of the cap body, one leg of the U-shaped edging strip being wider than the other leg, the respective legs of said edging being disposed on the respective sides of the cap body,
  • said wider leg being attached to body along only a portion of its width adjacent said margin to provide an unattached floating part, and a sealing strip of thin flat elastic material disposed within the cap and secured along only one margin to the surface of said unattached floating part of said edging on the inside of the cap body, the width of said sealing strip being wider than said respective leg of the edging to provide a free floating portion serving as a sealing lining inside the cap when the cap is in stretched condition when worn.
