Definitions
- the invention relates to headgear, in particular Sun hats and peaked caps.
- a disadvantage of such a hat is that Solar cells are very small and little electrical Can generate electricity, so that the electric motor to Fan drive has only a very low power. Such headgear is therefore not sufficient Generate cooling effect. Furthermore, the electric motor, especially when using headgear during summer vacation on the beach, by exposure to sea water or sand can be destroyed quickly.
- a cooling cap element belongs to DE 295 10 011 U1 state of the art with a three-layer fabric part, which is made of a mesh-like front fabric, a waterproof fabric on the back and a non-woven Material consists of water-absorbing high molecular weight Fibers is formed and which between the front fabric and the back fabric sealed is.
- the cooling cap element When the cooling cap element is immersed in water the water penetrates the three-layer fabric part of the mesh-like front fabric and is in absorbs non-woven fabric. If you put such water containing cooling cap element, causes the heat of outside and from the head a gradual evaporation of the water. By giving off the heat of vaporization the cooling cap member and the one in contact with Cooled headboard.
- a disadvantage of the known cooling cap element is initially their three-layer structure. The production is technical complex. Another disadvantage is that the cooling cap element must be immersed in water so that soak up the middle layer of fabric with water can. This is cumbersome. Also the cooling cap element then completely wet, which is uncomfortable when worn can be. In addition, it is often not possible Immerse the cooling cap element, for example at sporting events and the like.
- a cap is also known from US-A-3,029,438 with an integrated sweat band, which is made of a water-absorbing foam layer and one There is aluminum foil.
- the aluminum foil is said to Seal the foam layer towards the head. This one too The foam layer must be built through from the outside The cap's fabric can be moistened with water. This is impractical.
- FR 2 647 645 A1 is a peaked cap known with an integrated liquid reservoir the one via a hose line and one arranged on the screen Nozzle of water sprayed into the face of the wearer can be.
- This peaked cap allows refreshment, a real cooling of the head is on this Way not possible. It can also be on the face splashed water may be uncomfortable. In different Situations, for example when driving a car or cycling or also in the exercise of sporting activities splashing the face with water is rather inappropriate.
- a hat is disclosed in US-A-3,696,814 a main volume that goes from one ear to the other Ear extends across the head, and a headband.
- the main band and the headband consist of an absorbent Material. With the help of an elastic back band the headgear is fixed.
- the main tape is immersed in with its ends in laterally arranged water tanks and soaks itself up with water.
- the main volume and that Headband can also be covered with an outer wrap be made of a towel.
- the object of the invention is therefore a headgear further training in application technology and a better cooling effect to reach.
- the achievement of this task results from the characterizing features of the main claim.
- the Headgear covering at least part of its surface or consists entirely of wettable material can be done by adding coolant, which is easy Water is ideal as an evaporation surface be used so that the evaporative cold Interior of the headgear or directly on the skin of the Heat can be removed from the wearer of the headgear.
- coolant which is easy Water is ideal as an evaporation surface be used so that the evaporative cold Interior of the headgear or directly on the skin of the Heat can be removed from the wearer of the headgear.
