HAIR CUTTING CLOTH 4 Filed June 10, 193'? I (Ittorneg- Patented July 12, 1938 UNITED STATES PATENT OFFICE v if 2,123,436 j a HAIR CUTTING CLOTH Fred H. Richmond, St. Louis, M0. 7 Application June 10, 1937, Serial No. 147,403
2 Claims.
This invention relatesto certain'new and useful improvements in hair cutting cloths, the peculiarities of will be hereinafter fully described and claimed.
5 These cloths are used by barbers to protect their customers clothes when having their hair out, and consist of a rectangular covering for the shoulders and trunk provided with a notch for the neck extending downward the bottom end of which is rounded to fit the neck and the upper ends are overlapped and temporarily fastened by pins or otherwise to hold the edge to the neck of the customer and thus prevent the hair when out, from falling down between the neo and the cloth.
Various means have been used to keep the loose hair from working down the neck, such as a soft fibrous material at the edge of the notch; a notched rubber apron with fastening hooks and. eyes; an elastic and water-proof shield with nonelastic segmental reinforcing pieces secured at the neck opening with perforations for a fastening device; and removable spring clips housed in circular pockets.
My cloth is characterized by elastic or analogous inserts at one or more portions of the margin of the neck opening that are puckered or drawn into a fullness at said portions by the normal contraction of the inserts, to allow of stretching the marginal edge of the opening to fit yieldingly the neck of the customer when the non-elastic upper ends of the yoke are brought together and overlapped and held by pins or other fastening means.
Therefore, my main objects are to provide means, first, for one or more elastic portions at the neck opening of a non-elastic fabric; second,
for making a fullness or pucker under contractile tendency in the marginal edge of such neck 40 opening to allow stretching under tension; third, to apply my invention as an attachment to hair cutting cloths already made that arenot elastic at the neck opening and so change them to a yielding neck opening; and fourth, to apply my invention to a yoke as a new article of manufacture to be combined withsuch a cloth in process of manufacture. 1
In the accompanying drawing in which like ref- 50 erence numerals indicate corresponding parts,
Fig. 1 represents the undersideof a hair cutting cloth with my improvement applied thereto;
Fig. 2, a separate view of a yokewith my ela's-' tic web sections applied thereto (partly broken away) as a new article of manufacture ready to be applied to such cloths in the process of making them;
a Fig. 3, an enlarged diagrammatic section on yoke with one elastic web section at the bottom of the notch, and the top end portions overlapped and fastened. i
Referring to the drawing, the numeral I designates an oblong rectangular piece of suitable fabrichaving its edge hemmed and a notch ex tending from the top downward a suitable distance to surround the neck of customer and allow of overlapping the upper ends and fastening temporarily with a pin or otherwise as shown in Fig. 6. The bottom of this notch is generally semicircular to fit the front of the neck, and its marginal edge is reinforced by an oblong bifurcated piece having legs 2 connected by a semicircular body portion 4 forming a yoke matching said notch and stitched thereto as indicated.
My yoke is characterized by one or more sections of elastic web or analogous material inserted at suitable points of the marginal edge. Fig. 2 shows strips of elastic web inserts 5 interposed between the body portion and the upper ends of the legs. The yoke fabric is preferably in double layers between which the ends of the elastic strips are held. securely by stitches through a binding tape 6 as indicated diagrammatically in Fig. 3. The usual transverse threads of the elastic web allows of stretching the inserts when sewing them to the neck opening which makes a normal fullness or pucker of the cloth (see Fig. 1) and provides a yielding edge in contact with the neck.
The elastic section may be triangular l and used at one point, suchas in the body portion of the yoke at the semicircular front as shown in Fig. 6. When the leg portions are overlapped and fastened as indicated, the triangular web will afford a yielding edge to the neck opening and a corresponding pressure that is just right for comfort of the neck'of the customer.
Fig. 4 shows two elastic web strips 5' connected by a circular band 8 to match the neck opening. This new article of manufacture can be relatively cheap and sold to the trade in order to apply my elastic insert sections to cloths now in use that have the usual unyielding edge at the neck opening. The formv shown in Fig. 4 can be made separately and readily stretched and stitched to the unyielding yoke.
The combined yoke and elastic sections shown in Fig. 2 can also be made separately andsold to the trade. This form is most conveniently applied to the cloth itself in the process of manufacture.
The neck band Fig. 4 and the yoke Fig. 2 are made of strong durable cloth suitably hemmed at the edges, and the insert sections are of elastic web or anything analogous to elastic.
For sanitary reasons it is customary 'to place a, clean neck cloth around the neck of each customer, and then close and fasten the neck opening of the hair cutting cloth more or less tightlyabout the neck cloth. I
With my improved hair cutting cloth; a yielding tension is obtained that is justright for comfort and efficiency as I have demonstrated in actual practice. V
Having thus fully described my invention what I claim as new and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is:
1. A hair cutting cloth comprising a sheet having a neck opening, and a fabric yoke enclosing said neck opening in overlying surface contact approximately throughout the portion of the sheet around the opening and having a fabric body portion at the inner end thereof with legs extending along opposite sides of the opening, each of said legs having elastic strips therein and stitched to the sheet while stretched.
2. A hair cutting cloth comprising a sheet having a notch shaped neck opening to receive the neck of a person and to extend substantially in edgewise relation thereto, and a fabric yoke extending about said neck opening and attached to the sheet, said yoke being arranged substantially in a plane adapted to extend approximately at right angles to the neck of a person when said cloth is arranged therearound, said yoke having a body portion at the inner end of the neck opening with legs extending along opposite sides thereof, each of said legs having elastic web strips therein and stitched to the sheet while stretched to grip the neck in edgewise relation when the cloth is applied thereto.
