VHAT-FRAMEYFORM'ER'.
j No. 823,696.
To all whom 212'; may concern:
Be it known that I, GEORGE W. PRICE, a citizen of the United States, residing at Ohicago, in thecounty of Cook and State of Illinois, have invented new and useful Improvements in Hat-Frame Formers, of which the following is a specification.
This invention relates to a device upon which wire frames for womens hats are formed and it consists principallyof a base having a post upon which is mounted two heads one of which has projecting arms carrying rods each having at its upper end ahook in which the wire is held when forming a hatframe. These rods are adjustably attached to the arms, so as to fix them in variouspositions, and thus secure different forms forhats. The wires are arranged on the rods by hand, and when a hat-frame has been formed the hooks on the rods can be disengaged simultaneously by releasing a lever operating a toggle' device. lifted off by the operator.
In the accompanying drawings, Figure 1 is a side elevat on of the machine, only two sets of rod-holders being shown, whereas eight sets are practicallyemployed. Fig. 2 is a plan of one of the heads. section of same.
Fig. 3 is a vertical Fig. 4 is a detail of the head, showing the manner of attaching one of the arms. Fig.5 is a detail in section of means of attaching the rods. Figs. 6 and 7 are details of the arms. -Fig. 8 is a plan view showing a hat-frame on the device. Fig. 9 is a detail illustrating the action of the arms.
,Inthe drawin s, 6 indicates a basev upon which is mounte a central post 8.
' 10 is an-upper head having radial vertical slots 'l i and a horizontal circular groove 14. This head has a central bore 14) and is provided with a sleeve 14 and is rotatable on the post,'but is held in fixed vertical position on the post 8 by pins 10 I head 10.
Below the upper head is a head 10, slidable up and down on the post 8, and 10 is a cross-pin in the post to limit the downward movement of the head. Coiled on the post in compression between the said heads isa spring 11. Attached to the head 10 are radial arms 7, each of which is pivotally connected at itsv outer end to a lower angular arm 7", pivoted to the lower Supported upon these arms 7 a are a series of vertical rods 9, each of which is adjustably attached thereto, preferably .by means of a bolt 16, having a slot 16 and a tighteningnut16 The tops of the rods 9 Specification of Letters Patent. Applieationfiled waters, 1905. Serial 110,281,139.
The hat-frame is then simply Patented June 19, 1906.
The form of the hat may be round, oval, or any other shape, inasmuch as the rods 9 are capable of being raised, lowered, tilted, and arranged to suit any desired shape. Natu rally the inner rods will support the crown or head wires of the frame and the outer rods the brim; but, as stated, the rods are capable of adjustment according to the shape desired, the various wires bein supported by the rods most conveniently l o purpose.
What I claim as new, and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is p 1. A former for wire hat-frames, comprising a central post, upper and lower heads rotatable thereon and having a spring in compression therebetween, radial arms pivoted at their inner ends to one of the heads and having supporting connections to the other are provided with hooks or notches 9 Each cated for the head, and upright rods connected to the arms i IIO ed thereon radial arms pivotally connected to one of the heads and having supports con nected to the other, upright rods supported on said arms, a spring in compression between the heads, and a lever connected to the respective heads and arranged to draw the same together.
3. In a former for wire hat-frames, the combination of a central post, upper and lower heads mounted thereon, sets of radial arms pivotally connected at their inner ends to the respective heads and to each other at their outer ends, upright rods supported on one of said sets, and a lock-lever connected to the respective heads and adapted to draw the same together.
4. In a hat-frame former, in combination, an upright post having upper and lower heads thereon movable to and from each other, and upper and lower sets of arms which are hinged at their inner ends to the heads respectively, and at their outer ends to each other, wireengaging rods carried by the lower set of arms, and means to move the heads toward .or from each other.
In testimony whereof I have signed my name to this specification in the presence of two subscribing witnesses.
GEORGE W. PRICE.
