Abstract
OUTERWEAR USED BOTH AS JACKET AND BAG
ABSTRACT OF THE DISCLOSURE:
A new and unique outerwear both as jacket and bag is disclosed which essentially comprises a trunk portion covering an upper half of a human body, said trunk portion being formed with an opening through which a human head passes, sleeve portions through which both arms extend sideways and a head portion detachably secured to the trunk portion, in which the human head is received. When using the trunk portion as a bag, the sleeve portions are receiv-ed in the trunk portion so that any part of the sleeve portions doesn't protrude outside and the openings through which the arms and head pass are closed.
Specifically, the first opening is formed at the joint between the trunk portion and sleeve portion so that the latter is received in the former through said first opening.
The first opening can be closed by means of a fastener means which is operated after receiving the sleeve portions in the trunk portion. In the meanwhile, the second opening is formed at the joint between the trunk portion and head portion and can be closed by means of hook means. When the trunk portion is filled with small-sized goods, it is carri-ed with the both first and second opening closed.

2. Description of the Pr`ior Art:
Hitherto a number of outerwears with sleeves were already proposed for utilizing the outerwear as a carrying bag in which small-sized goods are contained. However, it is recognized as drawbacks with the conventional outer-wears that small-sized goods o`ften fall down through the sleevs and that they have an unpleasant appearance because of the fact that the sleeves are visible from the outside.
SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION:
Thus it is the first object of the present invention to provide an outerwear used both as jacket and bag which is designed in such a manner as to close openings at the joints between the trunk portion and sleeve portion as ~;
/
~i SZZS2 well as between the trunk portion and head portion so that nothing falls down therethrough.
It is the second object of the present invention to provide an outerwear used both as jacket and bag which is designed in such a manner as to receive the sleeve portions in the trunk portion when using it as a bag so that any part of the sleeve portions is invisible.
It is the third object of the present invention to provide an outerwear used both as jacket and bag which is designed such that it is carried on a human back by means of string means which serve for closing the bottom edge of the trunk portion, when using it as a bag.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS:
As illustrated in Figs. 1 through 4, the outerwear 1 d, ., .
., 1~5Z252 used both as jacket and bag in accordance with the present invention essentially comprises a trunk portion 2 for an upper part of a human bod~, sleeve portions 3 and a head portion 4. A joint 5 between the sleeve portion 3 and trunk portioh 2 has an open part at its front side in which no stitching is effected. Specifically, the first open-ing 6 of the joint 5 can be closed by uniting a fastener half 7 at the sleeve portion 3 and a fastener half 8 with the aid of a slider 9. Thus the sleeve portion 3 can be received in the trunk portion 2 through the first opening 6 of the joint 5 by separating the both fastener halves 7 and 8 and then expanding the first opening 6 of the joint 5, as illustrated in Fig. 5. It is to be noted that another fastener halves 10 are provided at the rear part of the joint between the sleeve portion 3 and trunk portion 2.
After the sleeve portion 3 is completely received in the trunk portion 2 through the first opening 6 of the joint 5, as illustrated in Fig. 6, the both fastener halves 7 ` and 8 are united again by means of the slider 9 so that any protrusion of the sleeve portion 3 is prevented.
The trunk portion 2 is formed with a isecond opening 11 i through which a human neck passes, and the head portion 4 is stitched to the rear rim of the second opening 11 at its lower central part. T~e rea~ pA tion 4 is provided with a .

l~SZ2~Z
plurality of hooks 12 along the inner side of the end part thereof, said hooks 12 being adapted to be engaged with another hooks 13 provided along the rim of the second opening 11, whereby the head portion 4 is firmly secured to the trunk portion 2. After disengaging the hooks 12 from the hooks 13, the head portion 4 can be received in the trunk portion 2 through the second opening 11. The head portion 4 is provided with a cover sheet 15 having a plurality of hooks 14 secured thereto. By receiving the head portion 4 in the trunk portion 2 through the second opening il and then engaging the hoo~s 14 with the hooks 13 the second opening 11 can be closed with the cover sheet 15, as illustrated in Fig. 5.
Further the trunk portion 2 is provided with a faste-ner 16 for the purpose of opening and closing the fore part of the trunk portion 2, said fastener 16 extending along the center line of the trunk portion 2 in the verti-cal direction.
Along the bottom end of the trunk 2 is formed a passageway 18 through which a single line of string 17 is extended. The ~oth end portions 19 of the string 17 are down out from the lower central part of the trunk portion 2 at its front side and they have a small piece of rod 20 secured at the extreme end thereof. As illustrated in Fig.

ll5Z252 2, the trunk portion 2 is provided with two upper loop members 21 and a lower loop member 22 on the back side, each of which comprises a looped string, the former being symmetrically located at the upper part of the back of the trunk portion 2, while the latter being located at the -lower central part in the vicinity of the bottom end thereof.
When using the outerwear of the invention as a bag in the form of knapsack, operatlon will be performed in the following manner.
First, turn over the trunk portion 2 upside down and then fill it with small-sized goods. Carry the both end parts 19 of the string 17 toward the rear side of the trunk 2, allow them to pass through the lower loop member 22 and then anchor the engagement pieces 20 at the upper loop members 21. Now the outerwear is ready to be used as a knapsack.
Next, when using the outerwear of the invention as a casual winter jacket, operation will be performed in the following manner.
.
First, pull the sleeve portions 3 out of the tr~nk portion 2 and unite the both fastener half 7 and fastener half 8 to close the first opening 6. In the meanwhile, pull the head portion 4 out of the trunk portion 2 and engage the hooks 12 with the hooks 13. Now the outerwear is ready i to be use as a winter jacket.

In the meanwhile, put the head portion 4 in the trunk 2 through the second opening 11 and then engage the hooks 14 with the hooks 13 to close the second opening 11. Now the trunk 2 is ready to be used as a bag for small pieces of goods.
After receiving the small-sized goods in the trunk portion 2, draw out the both end parts 19 of the string 17, allow them to pass through the loop member 22 and then anchor the engagement pieces 20 at the loop members 21.
Now it is ready to be used as a knapsack.
The outerwear in accordance with the ahove described embodiment of the invention is such that a single line of string 17 extends through the passageway 18 and the both end parts 19 of the string 17 are drawn out from the central part of the trunk portion 2 at its bottom end.
Alternatively, two lines of string 23 and 24 may extend through the passageway 18 and the both end parts 25 and 26 of the strings 23 and 24 may be drawn out from the both sides of the trunk portion 2, as illustrated in Figs. 9 and 10.
