Description
oooooooo J.BECK. MINERS GAP UNITED STATES PATENT OFFICE.
JOHN BECK, OF CARNEGIE, PENNSYLVANIA.
MINERS CAP.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 595,595, dated December 14, 1897.
Application filed June 24,1896. Serial No. 596,765. (No model.)
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, JOHN BECK, a citizen of the United States of America, residing at Carnegie, in the county of Allegheny and State of Pennsylvania, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Miners Caps, of which the following is a specification, reference being had therein to the accompanying drawings.
Thisinvention relates to certain new and useful improvements in miners caps, and relates more particularly to attachments for the ordinary cap that will protect the eyes of the wearer from danger of injury.
The invention has for its object to provide simple and efficient means for the above purpose, and, furthermore, a construction that may be readilyattached to the ordinary cap and that will be extremely simple in its nature, strong, durable, efiectual in its operation, and comparatively inexpensive to manufacture; furthermore, a construction wherein the shield or eye-protecting device may be readily folded within the cap when not desired by the wearer for use.
With the above and other objects in View the invention finally. consists in the novel construction, combination, and arrangement of parts to be hereinafter more specifically described, and particularly pointed out in the claims.
In describing the invention in detail reference is had to the accompanying drawings, forming a part of this specification, and wherein like letters of reference indicate similar parts throughout. both views, in which- Figure 1 is a front elevation of a miners cap, showing my attachment secured thereto. Fig. 2 is a plan View of the shield.
The arms f f protrude from a body f of sheet metal, which is soldered or otherwise secured to the plate a.
The plan view of Fig. 2 shows the arms ff, and it also shows the stem engaged by the arms. It shows also the hooked end of the stem entering the hole e of the plate 0. In View of this illustration further views showing that construction are thought unnecessary.
To the inside of the cap on the underneath side of the top portion is secured a plate or piece of metal 9, to which is hinged a strap h, and to this strap h is hinged the frame is of the eye-shield, said frame carrying a netting Z, which may be composed of fine wire or any suitable material that will form a protection for the eyes.
By reason of the shield attachment being hinged on the plate 9 and at the intersection of the strap and shield-frame it will be observed that the shield can be'folded back in the'cap when it is not desired for use and will be entirely out of the way. When it is desired to use the same, by raising the cap at the front the shield can be pulled down in position over the eyes and will be held firmly by the cap on the head.
I also desire to call attention to the various uses to which the shield may be applied outside of the case shown herewith, as it will be observed that the same will be very useful for threshers to protect the grain from striking the eyes, and may be readily secured to any ordinary cap or hat and folded up in the same inthe manner heretofore described when not in use.
It will be observed that various changes may be made in thedetails of construction 2. In combination with a cap, a disk 9, se-' cured to the crown thereof, a strap h, hinged to the disk, a frame is hinged to the strap and a netting Z secured to the frame, substantially as described.
In testimony whereof I affix my signature in presence of two witnesses.
JOHN BECK.
Witnesses:
A. M. WILSON, H. E. SEIBERT.
