Description
ATTACHMENT FOR HATS. `APPLICATIoH FILED JULYs1, 1966.v
WILLIAM L. MAYNARD, OF HUDSON, MICHIGAN.
ATTACHMENT FOR HATS.
Specification of Letters Patent.
Patented April 2, 1907.
Application filed July 31,1906. Serial N0. 328,596.
T0 a/ZZ whom it may concern:
Beit known that I, WILLIAM L. MAYNARD, a citizen of the United States, residing at Hudson, in the county of Lenawee and State of Michigan, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Attachments for Hats, of which the following is a specification.
The object of this invention is to provide a simple attachment for hats designed not only as a means for marking a hat, but also being effective to prevent likelihood of the hat being placed upon the head of one to whom it does not belong by mistake.
The invention involves novel details of construction and is very simple in operation, as will appear more fully as the description proceeds.
For a full understanding of the invention and the merits thereof and also to acquire a knowledge of the details of construction of the means for effecting the result reference is to be had to the following description and accompanying drawings, in which- Figure 1 is a sectional view showing an at tachment comprising the invention applied to an ordinary form of hat. Fig. 2 is a view similar to Fig. 1, showing the attachment adjusted, as when in use, the hat not being in use or upon the head. Fig. 3 is a view of the attachment as it may be supplied to the trade and preparatory to aiiixing the same to the hat.
Corresponding and like parts are referred to in the following description and indicated in all the views of the drawings by the same reference characters.
Specifically describing the invention it is contemplated that the attachment include suitable means for securing the same to the hat la, this means preferably consisting of a split band 1, made from a strip of material, such as light sheet metal, said band having a number of projections 2 extending therefrom and adapted to pass through the band inside of almost all hats to thereby iirmly connect the band 1 with the hat. The ends of the strip from which the band 1 may be made are secured together in any suitable way or may overlap. When the band l is applied to the hat, projections 3 in the length of the band are at opposite points or opposite sides of the hat, and these projections,
hinged to its projection 3, while the member 5 consists, preferably, of a wire loop or baillike part which is also hingedly connected with its projection 3.
When the attachment is in use, the members 4 and 5 are at opposite sides of the hat interiorly thereof, and springs 6 at the hinged end portions of said members 4 and 5 normally tend to force the free ends thereof up into the crown of the hat, so that the members 4 and 5 will not interfere or bear against the head of the wearer of the article when the hat is in use. Vhen, however, the hat is removed from the head'of the wearer, he pulls downwardly upon the members 4 and 5 until the outer end of the member 5 receives the outer end portion of the member 4. The cross-bar at the outer extremity of the member 5 is engaged between two projections 7, which extend from the imder side of the member 4.
The manner of interlocking the bail-like member 5 with the pllate 4, as above speciiied, will so adjust t ese two members with regard to one another that they will project downwardly from the crown or top of the hat and will prevent any one from placing the hat upon the head, offering a substantial obstruction to such operation. It will be obvious, therefore, that one taking upl the hat must necessarily manipulate the parts 4 and 5 before he can place the hat upon his head, and in so doing he will note the name of the owner of the hat upon the plate 4, and this will obviate any likelihood of any mistake being made in securing the right hat or the one which belongs to him. In use, therefore, the parts 4 and 5 of the attachment extend up into the crown of the hat when the latter is upon the head of the wearer 5 but when the article is removed from the head said members 4 and 5 are engaged with one another after being pulled downwardly, and thus project down from the crown of the hat to accomplish the result above set forth. The invention is very simple in its construction and may be manufactured at a nominal cost, so as to insure its meeting with a ready market, as almost everybody will desire to be supplied with a simple means of marking the hat, such as above described.
Having thus described the invention, what is claimed as new is 1. An attachment for hats embodying suitable securing means for fastening the same thereto, other means normally occupy- IOO ing a position within the hat so as not to obstruct or prevent placing of the article upon the head, and means for holding the lastmentioned means in a position preventing placing of the hat properly upon the head.
2. In combination with a hat, an attachment therefor embodying means for fastening the same to the hat, members normally occupying positions within the hat so as not to interfere with placing the article upon the head, and means for holding said members in such positions that they project downwardly from the crown of the hat and prevent placing of the hat properly upon the head.
3. In combination with a hat, an attachment therefor including a band or strip fastened within the hat, and members pivoted to the said band or strip and normally occupying positions in which they project upwardly toward the crown of the hat, said members being movable to occupy positions extending away or downwardly from the crown of the hat, and means for holding the members in the last-mentioned positions.
4. In combination with a hat, an attachment therefor consisting of coperating members pivotally connected with the hat at opposite sides thereof, means normally holding said members in positions in which they eX- tend toward the crown of the hat, and interlocking means between the members for holding the same in positions in which they eX- tend from the crown of the hat to prevent placing of the article upon the head of the wearer.
5. In combination with a hat, an attachment therefor consisting of cooperating members pivotally connected with the hat at opposite sides thereof, means normally holding said members in positions in which they extend toward the crown of the hat, and means for holding the said members in positions in which they extend from the crown of the hat to prevent placing of the article upon the head of the wearer, one of the members constituting a name-plate.
6. In combination with a hat, an attachment therefor consisting of cooperating members pivotally connected with the hat at opposite sides thereof, means normally holding said members inpositions in which they eX- tend toward the crown of the hat, and means for holding the said members in positions in which they extend from the crown of the hat to prevent placing of the article upon the head of the wearer, one of the members constituting a name-plate, the other-of the members comprising a loop of wire material adapted to interlock with the name-plate.
In testimony whereof I afliX my signature in presence of two witnesses.
WILLIAM L. MAYNARI).
