Abstract

Weights adapted for attachment to a fabric article such as a wedding veil to hold the article from undesired movement as by wind, etc. wherein the weights are of two-part construction and those parts magnetically attracted to each other such that when the parts are positioned on opposite sides of the article such attachment thereto is accomplished.

Claims

exact text as granted — not AI-modified
1 . A magnetic weight device adapted for releasable attachment to a fabric article worn by humans such as a wedding veil and having generally planar opposed upper and lower surfaces so as to maintain the position of the fabric article when subject to disruptive forces, said device comprising a two-part weight having a front portion and a rear portion, said front portion having a front body having an upper outer surface in turn provided with ornamentation, said front body further including a lower back surface having a first magnet disposed thereon wherein said first magnet and said lower back surface form an overall flat surface for contact with the upper surface of the fabric article, said weight rear portion further including an upper inner surface having a second magnet disposed thereon wherein said second magnet and said upper inner surface of said weight rear portion form an overall flat surface for contact with the lower surface of the fabric edge, said weight front and rear portions magnetically attached to each other so as to position said weight device on the opposed surfaces of the fabric article so as to, in effect, weigh down and position the fabric article in the position desired by the human wearer. 
     
     
         2 . The magnetic weight device of  claim 1 , wherein said device is slideably adjustable with respect to the fabric article on which said weight is attached. 
     
     
         3 . The magnetic weight device of  claim 1 , wherein said second magnet is a non-magnetic material magnetically attracted to said first magnet. 
     
     
         4 . The magnetic weight device of  claim 1 , wherein said first magnet is a non-magnetic material magnetically attracted to said second magnet. 
     
     
         5 . The magnetic weight device of  claim 1 , wherein said weight front body lower back surface includes a recess and wherein said first magnet is disposed in said recess. 
     
     
         6 . The magnetic weight device of  claim 5 , wherein said weight rear portion inner surface includes a recess and wherein said second magnet is disposed in said recess. 
     
     
         7 . In combination with a wedding veil formed of a lightweight fabric having opposed planar upper and lower surfaces, means for attaching the veil to a wearer's head and terminating in a bottom edge, a plurality of two-part weight devices magnetically slideably attached to said opposed surfaces of said veil and positioned generally at spaced locations proximal to the bottom edge of said veil, said weight devices each comprising a two-part weight having a front portion and a rear portion, said front portion having a front body having an upper outer surface in turn provided with ornamentation, said front body further including a lower back surface having a first magnet disposed thereon wherein said first magnet and said lower back surface form an overall flat surface for contact with the upper surface of said veil, said weight rear portion further including an upper inner surface having a second magnet disposed thereon wherein said second magnet and said upper inner surface of said weight rear portion form an overall flat surface for contact with the lower surface of said veil.
