Description
Jan. 30, 1934. A GORDON 1,945,110
EAR PROTECTOR I Filed Dec. '7, 1931 INVENTOR. flbmfl 422; 50/404 A TTORNEYS.
Patented Jan. 30, 1934 UNITED STATES PATENT OFFICE The invention relates to ear protectors, and its principal object is to'provide an ear protector which is highly efficient in use and yet inexpensive.
It is also an object of the invention'to provide an ear protector which has a snug fit around the ears of the wearer, so that air is not admitted between the protector and the head during violent gusts or blizzards.
With these and other equally important objects in view which will become apparent from a perusal of the invention, the latter comprises the means described in the following specification particularly pointed out in the claim forming a part thereof, and illustrated in the accompanying drawing, in which Fig. 1 is a fragmentary top plan view of a blank used to produce the invention.
Fig. 2 is a top plan view of a protector made in accordance with my invention.
Fig. 3 is an enlarged section on the line 3-3 of Fig. 2, and
Fig. 4 shows a protector applied to a human head.
As shown in the drawing, the protector comprises a web portion 10 which terminates at its ends in substantially round portions 11 and 12 integral therewith.
As indicated in Fig. 1, the blank A used for producing the protector has a round portion which is provided with a slit 13 which extends radially in the end portions 11 and 12.
The parts 14 and 15 adjacent the slit 13 are superposed, and the end of an elastic band 16 is inserted between the-superposed portions, and a seam 17 is employed to sew the superposed portions together whereby the round portion 11 or 12 is forced to assume conical formation thereby cupping the ear when applied.
The protector is made of pliable material such as felt or other suitable material, and the formation of the end portions as cups creates a certain elasticity at the periphery, establishing thereby a snug fit around the ears of the wearer. This 05 snug fit is, of course, augmented by the tension of the elastic band 16 which is arranged to encompass the forehead of a person.
While the drawing shows a preferred embodiment of the invention, the same is merely illustrated by way of explanation and not by way of limitation.
Innumerable changes, alterations, and revisions may be made within the purview of the invention.
I, therefore, do not limit myself to the details of construction or arrangement of parts, as shown, but claim my invention as broadly as the state of the art permits.
I claim:
An article of the character described comprising a band terminating in enlarged portions, the enlarged portions being slitted, with the adjacent portions of the slit lapped and secured together to form such enlarged portions in approximate cone shape, the lapped portions forming a pocket, and a securing strip for the article with its terminals secured in said pockets.
