Abstract

An ornamental for a hat type visor made of a fairly rigid material, such as metal or plastic that expands as the edge of a hat type visor is slipped into a void defined by two ornamental end members, one gripping the top surface of a hat type visor and another gripping the bottom of the same hat type visor that is removable, has interchangeable ornaments, is linkable, is reversible, and is adaptable to accept modified lapel pin type emblems so as to not puncture or glue to the surface of a hat type visor.

exact text as granted — not AI-modified
I claim:  
     
         1 . A wearable ornamentation that simultaneously grips the top and bottom surfaces of a hat type visor having a thickness comprising: 
 a. a flexible and reversible ornamental strand having first and second ends; and    b. an ornamental end member adapted to attach to at least one end of the ornamental strand; wherein the strand and end member define a gap less than the thickness of the visor.    c.    
     
     
         2 . The device of  claim 1 , further comprising a second ornamental end member and an ornamental link attached between the ornamental end member and the second ornamental end member.  
     
     
         3 . The device of  claim 2 , wherein the ornamental strand is a “U” shaped coil further comprising an eyelet on one end to releasably attach an additional ornamental end member with a back adapted to snap into the eyelet.  
     
     
         4 . The device of  claim 2 , further comprising a catch, and wherein the ornamental strand is a “U” shaped coil further comprising an eyelet on one end with an affixed catch with a hole in its center to releasably attach the second ornamental end member with a nail type back adapted to slip into the catch.  
     
     
         5 . The device of  claim 2 , wherein the ornamental strand is a “U” shaped coil further comprising a post on at least one end to releasably attach the second ornamental end member with a hole adapted to slip onto the post.  
     
     
         6 . The device of  claim 1 , wherein the ornamental strand further comprises at least one additional ornamental end member that is a shortened nail lapel pin.  
     
     
         7 . The device of  claim 2 , wherein the coil is expandable, defining a gap between the endings of the coil to receive the edge of a hat type visor.  
     
     
         8 . The device of  claim 1 , wherein the ornamental strand is a “U” shaped plate.  
     
     
         9 . The device of  claim 8 , wherein the ornamental strand “U” shaped plate is expandable, defining a gap between the plate to receive the edge of a hat type visor.  
     
     
         10 . The device of  claim 1 , wherein the ornamental strand further comprises at least one additional ornamental end member that is a three dimensional object.

         12 . The device of  claim 5 , wherein the ornamental strand is reversible.  
     
     
         13 . The device of  claim 1 , wherein the ornamental strand is formed from a flexible material selected from a group consisting of treated metals, metal alloys or polymers, polyolefins, polyamides, polyethylene, polypropylene, copolymers, terpolymers thereof, and rubbery polymers.  
     
     
         14 . The device of  claim 1 , wherein the additional ornamental end member is formed from a material selected from a group consisting of treated metals, metal alloys or polymers, polyolefins, polyamides, polyethylene, polypropylene, copolymers, terpolymers thereof, and rubbery polymers.  
     
     
         15 . The device of  claim 1 , wherein the additional ornamental link is formed from a material selected from a group consisting of treated metals, metal alloys or polymers, polyolefins, polyamides, polyethylene, polypropylene, copolymers, terpolymers thereof, rubbery polymers, or non-stretchable or stretchable fabrics.  
     
     
         16 . The device of  claim 10 , wherein the additional ornamental end member is a battery supported electrically lighted display.  
     
     
         17 . The device of  claim 10 , wherein at least one additional ornamental end member is a magnetized golf ball marker plate.  
     
     
         18 . The device of  claim 10 , wherein the ornamental strand further comprises at least one additional ornamental end member that is a sphere.
