HAT-FASTEN ER.
SEEGIFIGATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 714,198, dated. November 25, 1902.
Application filed January 24,1902. Serial No. 91,023. (No model.)
To all whom, it may concern: 7
Be it known that I, GEORGE E. LACY, a citizen of the United States, residing at Newark, in the county of Essex and State of New Jersey, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Hat-Fasteners; and I do hereby declare the following to be a full, clear, and exact description of the invention, such as will enable others skilled in the art to which it appertains to make and use the same, reference being had to the accompanying drawings, and to the letters of reference marked thereon, which form a part of this specification.
The objects of this invention are to facilitate the operation of securely fastening a ladys hat or bonnet upon the head, to provide-fastening means of greater simplicity and cheapness of construction, to enable a fastening means to be permanently attached to the hat, so that there will be no opportunity of loss of such means, to prevent the damage to the hat incident to the use of pins now commonly employed, to enable the hat to be secured without said means appearing to the view, and thus detracting from the sightliness of said hat or bonnet, and to secure other advantages and results, some of which may be referred to hereinafter in con-- nection with the description of the working parts.
The invention consists in the improved hatfastener and in the arrangements and combinations of parts of the same, all substantially as will be hereinafter set forth and finally embraced in the clauses of the claim.
Referring to the accompanying drawings, in which like letters of reference indicate corresponding parts in each of the several figures, Figure lis a perspective View of a ladys hat or bonnet to which my improved fastening means have been applied. Fig. 2 is a side elevation of the fastener. Fig. 3 is a plan of the same, and Fig. 4 is a section taken at line :0, showing on an enlarged scale the preferred sectional shape of the said fastening means.
In said drawings, (1 indicates the hat or bonnet, having on its under side the usual head aperture or recess 17, and 0 indicates the fastener, which is preferably of resilient material, and more particularly spring-steel. This comprises a single integral piece of approxi- I 'crosssection may be varied without depart ing from the spirit or scope of the invention. The said resilient piece is bent double, and the central forward part or brow portion thereof is made to conform more or less closely to the forward part of the head-aperture b, the said piece 0 being sewed or otherwise fastened to the hat at the lower edge of the walls of said aperture, the coincidence of the spring and said walls terminating at points about at the opposite sides of the forehead, where the hair borders the said forehead. At these points in the hat, the courses of the said piece changes as at c, the said piece being bent downward away from the bottom of the hat at an inclination and the curvatures of the said piece in plan changing from an outward and rearward curvature to inward curvatures toward the central axial line of the device, as indicated in Fig. 3. The extremities of the said piece 0 lie normally quite close to gether, in some cases touching, and the inclinations in side elevation change, as at 0 so that there are npbends to said piece a little back from the extremities. The proportions in plan are such as to conform to the average head, the size of the spring, however, being varied to suit, three or four sizes being ordinarily provided. Thus shaped and proportioned the free ends 0 of the fastening spring or piece are adapted to be spread apart, as indicated in Fig. 3, and thrust endwise underneath the hair of the wearer, the extremities of the spring passing backward at opposite sides of the head and entering underneath the rearward terminal bump of the head, the said terminal bump or the rearall without any inconvenience or discomfort another and near their extremities being to the wearer and without the use of any other curved upwardly or toward a plane eloselyapfasteners, such as pins or the like. proximating a plane parallel with the plane Having thus described the invention, what of the browportion, substantially as set forth. 15 5 I claim as new is- In testimony that I claim the foregoing I The improved hat-fastenerherein described I have hereunto set my hand this 10th day of comprising a brow portion curved in plan January, 1902.v and having integral therewith at opposite ends thereof, members downwardly inclined 10 from the plane of said brow portion, said GEORGE E. LACY. Witnesses:
