Supporting Means

Abstract

A supporting means to support various articles up to and against a person's head comprising of a band (A) of suitably resilient material that can be bent to approximate the shape of a person's head and fitted with components (B 1 , B 2 ) that interface with the person's head and articles to be supported (B 3 ) and by remaining static in bent shape performs its function without clamping or spring tightening to be worn by and remain upon a person's head.

1 . A supporting means that supports various articles up to or against a person's head that comprises of a band of suitably resilient material that can be bent to approximate the shape of a person's head, fitted with components that interface with the person's head and articles to be supported and by being static in bent shape, performs its function without clamping or spring-tightening to be worn by and remain upon, a person's head. 
   
   
       2 . A supporting means according to  claim 1 , wherein the band of suitably resilient material is curved to position the attached, curve-end-approximated, head-interfacing components, at a distance sufficient enough for it to be placed over the human head. 
   
   
       3 . A supporting means according to  claim 1 , wherein the band of suitably resilient material possesses subsequent bends to position article-interfacing components, near or against a person's head. 
   
   
       4 . A supporting means according to  claim 1 , wherein the inner-facing surfaces of the attached head-interfacing components are substantially curved to follow the contour of a person's head. 
   
   
       5 . A supporting means according to  claim 1 , wherein the inner-facing surfaces of the head-interfacing components posses raised bumps or ribs of any pattern to engage with a person's scalp or hair. 
   
   
       6 . A supporting means according to  claim 1 , wherein the attachable head and article-interfacing components can be of any shape. 
   
   
       7 . A supporting means according to  claim 1 , wherein the attached article and head interfacing components can be movable and removable for size adjustability. 
   
   
       8 . A supporting means according to  claim 1 , wherein the resilient band performs its function by being made of any material able to be bent to the shape of a person's head and is such as not to unbend under the weight of attached articles. 
   
   
       9 . A supporting means according to  claim 1 , wherein the head and article-interfacing components can be permanently attached to the resilient band during manufacture. 
   
   
       10 . A supporting means according to  claim 1 , wherein the resilient band and head interfacing components can be formed in one piece. 
   
   
       11 . A supporting means according to  claim 1 , onto which various articles can be attached with either permanent or temporary fasteners.
