HAT-MARK.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 574,325, datedDecember 29, 1896.
` Application led March l2, 1896. Serial No. 582,906. (No model.)
T0 all whom, it may concern,.-
Beit known that I, JosnrH S. B. HAR'rsocK, of Washington city, in the District of Columbia, have invented a new and useful Improvement in Hat-Marks, of which the following is a specification.
My invention is in the nature of a simple and cheap attachment designed to be placed in a hat and secured to its sweat-band so as to indicate the ownership of the hat and prevent it from being taken by mistake from the rack or stand on which it may be placed with others.
My invention contemplates not only supplyin g a visu al mark or label with the owners name on it, but also such a construction and adjustment of the device as will cause it, if placed inadvertently upon the head of a stranger, to prick his forehead and apprise him of his mistake.
It also contemplates the making of the mark or label with double faces, upon one side of which may be placed the name of the dealer from whom it was bought and on the other side the name of the wearer, the idea being to make the device so cheap as to be furnished by the dealer, and bearing his advertisement in the place of the usual label pasted in the crown.
My invention consists in the peculiar construction and arrangement of the hat-mark, which I will now proceed to describe more in detail, reference being had to the accompanying drawings, in whicht Figure l is an inside view of a hat With the mark in place and in the position in which the hat is worn. Fig. 2 is a similar view with the markrin the position when off the head and hung upon a rack with others. Fig. 3 is a vertical section through line 3 3 of Fig. 2, showing in dotted lines the position shown in Fig. l; and Fig. 4 is a sectional detail of a modification.
A represents a body of very thin light metal designed to slip underneath the sweat-band and having at its upper edges two prongs o. a, which penetrate the sweat band and are clenched into the same, so that it cannot be lost out. The upper edge of this body-plate is curled over at a.' a to form a tubular socket for a pintle or hinge-pin c. On this pin is hinged the folding and reversible label-holder B, containing a card b, on one side of which (see Fig. l) is printed the advertisement of the dealer and on the other side of which (sce Fig. 2) is printed or written the name and, if desired, the address of the owner of the hat. The label-holder is also by preference made of very light thin metal, and its hinged end p is curled or rolled into tubular sockets b b', 6o which embrace the hin ge-pin c, while the middle part is extended in the shape of a tongue bzpast the hinge-pin and has an offsetting end b5, that bears, when the label is up in the posi tion shown in Fig. l, against a small spring d, secured to the body portion A and extending up beyond and behind the Yhinge-pin. This spring bears against the tongue b2 to hold the label rmly in either one of its two positions, and for this purpose said tongue has the pro- 7o jection b3 on one side andis slightly curved backward from the same. This projection b3 I prefer to perform by doubling the end of the tongue h2 on itself to give it stiffness and then bending this doubled end to an offsetting projection. I may, however, modify this construction by bending the tongue into a triangular shape as shown in Fig. 4.
The label-holder B may be of any desired shape, but I prefer to make it circular, as 8o shown. It is stamped out of a piece of thin metal, and the circular card h is retained by a separate ring r of the same size as the main part of the label-holder, and to which it is clamped and held by prongs or spurs z., formed on the edges of said ring and overlapping and clenched upon the ring of the labelholder. On the eXtreme edge of the labelholder there is also formed, in stamping the same, several sharp-pointed teeth s, which 9o are turnedoutwardly when the device is in the position shown in Fig. 2, so as to prick the forehead of any one who may inadvertently place the hat upon his head.
In forming my hat-mark it will be seen that the body portion A has its prongs a a at its extreme upper edge and bent forwardly and downwardly immediately beside the hingepin sockets a a', which are also formed of the upper edge of the body. portion curled roo over, as described. As these prongs o, a connect with the upper edge of the sweat-band this construction causes the label-holder, when folded down, to descend to a position near the lower edge of the sweat-band, where the label is conspicuous, and the prickingpoints s are brought near the edge of the sweatband, where the latter tits tightly against the head, thus insuring attention by the certain action of these points, even if the hat is placed lightly upon or tilted back on the head.
Having thus described my invention, what I claim as new, and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is-
l. A hat-mark comprising a body portion having at its upper edge attaching-prongs bent forwardly and downwardly for connecting directly with the upper edge of the sweatband and 'having beside the prongs and im mediately adjacent to the same hinge-pin sockets formed of the curled upper edge of the body portion, and a reversible label-holder hinged to said upper edge of the body portion on a level with said prongs and sockets and adapted to fold downwardly in front of the sweat-band near its lower edge and a spring for holding the label-holder t0 its two positions substantially as and for the purpose described.
2. A hat-mark comprising a body portion adapted for attachment to the sweat-band and having hinged to its upper edge a reversible label-holder provided at its extreme outer or free ed gc with )wicking-points formed upon the margin of the label-holder substantially as and for the purpose described.
A hat-mark comprising a body portion having at its upper edge prongs formed upon the edge of the body portion bent forwardly and downwardly for attachment to the sweatband and having hinge-piu sockets immediately beside and on the saine level as the prongs, a hinge-pin arranged thereon, a labelholder hinged thereupon and having prieking-points formed on the margin of its free or outer edge and a spring for holding the label-holder in its two positions substantially as and for the purpose described.
4. A hat-mark comprising a body portion with prongs a a and curled pintle-sockets a' ce at its upper end, the pintle-pin c, the labelholder B with curled sockets b' b', tongue b2 and projection b3, and a spring d secured to the body portion and bearing against the tongue to hold the label-holder in its two positions as described.
5. A label forahat-mark comprising a marginal frame with outturned teeth s at its edge, and a ring r with intermediate card b said ring and marginal frame being connected by prongs or clips substantially as shown and described.
