HAT LINING Filed May '28. I933 INVENTOR- Mufims E. COHEN BY a ATTORNEY- Moms Cohen, 'New York,"N. Y., assignor tof one-half toxThe L. H; Bandeau 00., awpartner- '6 g a ship .composed of Louis Hofield,;New, York,

. This invention-relates to inew and useful improvements in hat linings andhas moreparticu lar reference to a. lining. intended particularly forladies mens and childrens hats. I f

The inventionhas fforan; object the construction oi' a lining whic h numerous advantages over the-present typesof linings andiwhich over- .jcomesfvarious defects inherent in lir'iings now The nvention proposes particularly to con- .struct 'af lining Whichis characterized by a substantiallydome shapedmaterial of one piece for a extending'across'the inner top and sides of a. hat and-having a flat, top, and curved sides, and a strip of material -,attached ;upon the bottom :edge of said; dome shaped material for extending around 'the inner sidesof the hatinclylina rormi It isold to manuiacture linings from various; ,pieces securedtogether and also, old ;to "manufacture alining from'one pieceof material. It is; particularly ,pointed out that the invention e cqversa lining V made'from' a dome shaped portion and a band portion arranged in a certain mannerqso as to gain numerous advantages.

A popular type of lining at the present time is atWopieCelining in which there is a substanl and vsewed upon the edges'ofsaid tip. This type 1 of -lining,hasra great disadvantage especially 3 when appliedto hats. ,.which must be blocked in y that impressions of: the seams at the top are v tially circular tip-.at..the top; and a.-,very,wide

hand around the sides, ,and bent; over at the top transferred to the hat during blocking. This disadvantage is overcomein the instant invention whereby the seam occurs at the sides of the;

hat, which is not subjected to great pressure during the blocking, as the top is.

For similar reasons as pointed'iout in the previous paragraph, the inventionlining is superior to linings which are composed of onepiece but formedwith a plurality of seams or pleats at the top in the construction ofthelining into the proper shape. l I

Another very important advantage gained "by the lining according to this invention is that it may be produced by a processwhich is far superior and capable of cheaper use when compared with processes used inthe construction of present day linings.

According to the new process the lining is manufactured by placing a strip of material within the periphery of and withits outer edge upon the outer edge of a substantially circular piece of material, and then sewing down one end which is simple and :which may be *andsoldat a very cheapcost.

The hat lining according to v thi s invention comprises 'a substantially dorne shapedpiece of the lining in the hat.. c..-

Thus, the completelining is constructed with -one continuous line yof stitches p N I l The" invention *still 1 further proposes the con- A structionof an article "of theclassflmentioned r x manufactured.

For further comprehension of the invention,

and of the objects andadvantages thereoirefl erencejiwill be had to; the followingdescription and accompanying drawing, and to the appended claims'in which the. various novelv features. of the invention are more particularly set forth. 1 I

In theaccompanying drawing forming amaterial-ipartof this disclosurez- Eig, 1 is a perspective view constructed according; to this invention.

Fig. 2 is a transverse. sectional view 1: the

lining shown inFigi 1.v I v r Fig 3is a1iragmentary sectional view taken on the line 3--3.of Fig,;l.;

material 10 for extending across the inner .t'op' and sidesr of azhat and having a substantially fiat top 11 and curvedsides 12.. -A bandof material 4.13 iszattached along the bottom edge .ofsaidsg; dome shaped material 10 and. isio'r the purf ,pose of extending around ,theqsides ot the hat in cylindrical fashion so that the lower edge may H be bent up and secured within thehat to mount 7 The dome shaped piece of material 10 is made froma substantially circular piece, and is formed into the dome shape by forming apluralitypf pleats 14 along itsedge during the securing of the strip 13 in place. The strip 13 has its endsoz 15, stitched together; These ends are. cut at an inclination as plainly shown in Fig. 1 so that the a ends may be secured together by continuing; the

sewing. which attaches the strip 13 tothe dome ins scribed. I y

The process for manufacturing the lining comprises pleating or gathering the bottom edge of the dome shaped piece 10 and simultaneously sew ingit upon the top edge of the strip of materialiiif 13 and after the strip is completely sewn around of hat linin I the edge of the dome shaped material, continuing the sewing transversely across the strip 13 so as to sew the ends of the strip'together. It is advisable that the strip 13 during its attachment upon the dome shaped material should be disposed within the dome shaped material as indicated by the dot and dash lines'16 in Fig. 2.

' Then after it is secured .in place-by stitches '17 it should be moved out as shown in full lines in Fig. 2. The bottom edge should be turned outwards as indicated bythe dot and dash lines 18 when the lining is attached within a hat. The. bent top edge indicated by reference numeral 19 of the strip 13 serves as a'guard to prevent injury to the pleats of the dome shaped piece when a hat provided with the lining is placed upon ones head. If the edges of the dome shaped piece were not disposed below bend 19 or if the dome shaped piece 12 were bentup instead of the upper edge of the strip 13 bent down, then there would be a strain upon the seamwhen the hat is placedon ones head.

The details of attaching the strip'IS upon the dome shaped piece may be understood by first noticing that the ends of the strip 13 are cut at an. inclination 'softhat there is an acute corner 20 and an obtuse corner21f The acute corner 20 should first be attached upon the edge of the dome shaped piece of' material 10 at the point 22, then the stitches 1'7 should be applied to secure the strip 13 upon the edge of the piece; 10, pleating and gathering theedge of the 'piece 10 through this operation until the strip '13 is completely attached around the edge of the dome shaped material, then'the-stitches 17 should bend 101T at an angle at the point 23 and the ends of the strip 13 seamed together.

While I have illustratedanddescrib'ed my invention with some degree of particularity, I realize that in practice various alterations therein may be made. I therefore reserve the right and privilege of changing of'the form' of the details of construction'or otherwise altering'thearrangeouter edge of a substantially circular piece of 1 material, sewing one end of the edge of said strip to the edge of said circular piece, continuing to sew the strip to the circular piece,'but pleating the edge of the circular pieceidu'ring the' sewing,

having one end cut at an acute angle and the. other end at an obtuse angle, and the acute end around the edge of the circular piece of material,

and continuing the sewing between the ends of the strip to join these ends together after the strip is sewn completely around said circular piece.

A process for manufacturing a hat lining, consisting of placing a strip of material within the periphery of and with its edge upon the outer edge of a substantially circular piece of material, sewing one end of the edge of said strip to the edge of said circular piece, continuing to sew the strip to the circular piece, but pleating the edge of the circular piece, during the sewing, and continuing the sewing between the ends of the strip to jointhese ends together after the strip is sewn completely around said circular piece, said strip havingone end cut at an acute angle and the other end at an obtuse angle, and the acute end being first secured upon the edge of the circular piece to allow a continuation of the stitching,

after thestrip has been completely attached upon the edgeoi thecircular piece so that the stitching continues along the'obtuse angle and so secures the endsof strip together.
