Barnum on.
Original No. 1,482,723, dated February 5, 1924-, Serial 1T0. 660,797, died September 4, 1923. Application for reissue filed April 20, 1925. Serial No. 24,669.
Toall whom it may com-em:
Be it known that we, LOUIS AUs'rER and MARIE AUS'IER, citizens of the United States, and residents oi New York, in the county and State of New York, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Bathing Caps, of which the following is a specification.
This invention relates to bathing caps and I water guards therefor and is more particularly directed to an improvement in that type of device described and claimed in our Patent No. 1,465,706, dated August 21, 1923.
Bathing caps as constructed do not protect the hair or cars of the bather from water and this is due to the fact that the irregular contour of the head more particularly defined'by crevices at points behind the ears and at the nape of the neck, permits the ingress of water to the interior of the bathing 'cap with consequent saturation of the hair "and water inthe ears.
It is an object of this invention when employed in conjunction with a bathing cap-or when incorporated in a bathing-cap as a unitary structure to prevent the passage of water to the interior of the cap by compensating for the irregular contour of the head at points behind the ears.
Another object of the invention is the provision of a device to not only exclude water from the hair of the bather but to protect the ears from water and reduce direct pressure of a bathing cap upon the cars.
A further object of the invention .is the provision of a reliable device for pocketing the ears of a. hather and thussealing the ears against WELtGIZl This invention will be best understood from a consideration of the following detailed description, in view of the accompanying drawing forming a part ofthe specification; nevertheless it is to be understood that the invention is not confined to the disclosure, being susceptible of such changes and'modifications whichshall define no material departure from the salient features of the invention as expressed in the up ended claims.
In t e drawings:
Figure 1 is a side view of an elastic band having incorporated therein our improved water guard for the ears of a bather.
Figure 2 is a side view of a bathing cap equipped with our improved water guard.
Figure 3 is a vertical section of the guard embodied in a bathing cap as shown in Figure 2. 1
Figure 4- is a modified form of the guard adapted to be employed in connection with a bathing cap and shown a lied to the head of a bather. pp
Figure 5 is av detail side view of the elastic band and guard illustrated in Figure 4.
tic material adapted to be drawn over the" head to encircle that portion of the head be- ,tween the forehead and the nape of the neck and embracing the ears upon opposite sides of the head. The lower edge 25 of the band is cut alongirregular lines so that the forward portion 26 which engages around-the forehead is narrower than the rear portion 27.
Portions28 depend from the lower edge of the band adjacent points where the band engages the ears and the depending portions .are cut out to provide ear-receiving open.-
ingsw29. The periphery of the openings engages that portion of the ear which is directly connected with the head of the bather. A rib 30 encircles the opening in spaced relation with the periphery of the opening 29 and is raised sufliciently above theperiphery of the band to neatly pocket the ear. By spacing the rib 30 from the periphery of the opening a flange 31 is formed upon which the ear is seated when the band has been applied to the head of abather.
The ribs 30 conform to the contour of the i ear and are connected adjacent their lower ends by a rib 32 which is formed intogrally'with the band 24 at its lower end and is carried around the rear 27 of the band and engages the nape of the neck.
As shown more particularly in Figure 7 a portion of the rib 32, as shown at 33, ad-
jacentr the point where it is connected to the encircling ribs 30, is elevated beyond the rib 32 and beyond the height of portions 34 of the laterally extending ribs 30 The object of elevating these portions of rib 32 is to cause the rib to seat within the sli ht recess formed at the rear of the ears eit er by.
the direct pressure of a cap or bythe tension exerted by the materials of the band when it is stretched over the head and thereby provide an absolute closure to prevent water from seeping beneath the band and saturating the hair and entering the ears. An elastic member 35 formed of substantially the same material as the band per se is molded integrally upon the outer periphery of the rib 30 as shown more particularly in Figures 1 to 3. In order to pocket the ears and seal the same against water the ribs 30 and 32, when the band 24 has been placed upon the head of the bather under a slight tension, tend to fall into any recesses due to the irregular contour of the head and seal the band and pocket from ingress of water. The portion 33 is especially.
adapted to be depressed in the hollows at the rear of the ears.
Instead of the elastic band as shown in Figure 1, a bathing-cap 36 may be provided with the ribs 30,- the. annular flange 31, the rib 32, depending portions 34 and the elastic closures 35. which cooperate with'the ribs 30 to form pockets for sealing the ears against water. The two structures are similar with the exception that the band 24 is not formed into a complete cap. The result obtained for the protection of the ears is identical with the results disclosed by the form shown in Figure 1. The bathing cap has the additional feature of prevent-' in saturation of the hair.
eferring more particularly to the Figures 4, 5 and 6 a band 24 is provided having the depending portion 34, encircling ribs 30, flange 31 and ribs 32 which correspond in detail to the similar members of Figures 1 and 2 This band is adapted to be worn in conjunction witha bathing cap 37 which cooperates with the ribs 30 to-form a pocket and seal the ears a ainst water. In this construction the ban as shown in Figure '4 with the ears inserted through the openings 29 and seated upon the 'flange31 and embraced by the ribs 30. The enlarged portion 33 where the rib 32'is connected to the rib- 30 is adapted to be forced into the depression behind the ears by the action of the bathing cap 37. Ace is adapted to be drawn over the head 0 bather with the lower edge 38 located below the lower edge of the band 24. 30 and 32 tend to force the bathin outwardly from the side of the hen not onl pocket the ears but causes the edge 38 of the cap to snugly'engage the head of the bather and sealthe cap against the passage of water. The pressure of the cap on the raised portion 33 of the rib 32 forces that portion into the recess behind the ears p and of the wearer the is applied to the head of a bather ears, ribs entirel the The ribs member while the rib 32 snugly engages the nape of the neck and fits in all depressions so that the band 24 and its elements cooperate with the cap to cause the cap toengage the head in a manner to prevent passage of water to the. interior of the cap. H A further modified form is shown in F igure 8 in which the sealing member 35" which is formed integrally with the rib 30 and cooperates with the rib to form a sealed pocket for the ear is bulged outwardly in order to provide a greater air pocket for the car. This concave closure'35 may be employed in connection with. either the band 24 of Figure 1 or the bathing cap 36 of Figure 2. i
'It will be appreciatedthat the which project laterally 'from the sldes of the bathing cap structure as shown in Figures 1, 2, 3 and 8 and which are described as being composed of an ear embracing rib 30 and a cover 35 connected with the outer end of the rib may be considered as pockets forming an integralpart of the body structure of the cap with the side walls of said pockets thickened to form reinforcing ribs 30 for aiding in eliminating pressure on the ears, with the pockets located between a band at the pleriphery of the head receiving opening of t e cap andthe to of the ca Due to the elasticity of t e materia s from which the ca structure is manufactured an inherent 1 that when the cap is forced upon the head ortion of the cap, and more particularly t e portions ofithe band designated by the numerals 2.5, and 32 at of the head receiving opening,-
the periphery exert a pul in opposite directions away from'the ear pockets and towards the front 'and rear of the cap and force the peri heral ortions of the ear ockets, es ecial y the oyvest extremities w ich are a so confined within the body structure of the cap as a nitarypart and above the marginal band in snug engagement with the head to aid in preventing the seepa e of water at these points and to aid the ears.
