DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a sunscreen jacket, and more particularly, to a sunscreen jacket for sunshade from the back of the neck to the vicinity of the back of the head.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art A conventional outerwear collar has a structure in which the neck and hem are circumferentially covered, and cannot protect the entire neck circumference from ultraviolet rays. In many cases, the sun was tanned around the neck because it was often performed under the scorching sun.

Therefore, sunburn is reduced by wrapping a towel or necker chief around the neck.

[0004]

However, it is troublesome to wind a towel or a neckerchief as described above, and it is not possible to sufficiently obtain a sunburn preventing effect. Furthermore, even if a towel or the like is rolled, it may slip off and hinder a sports competition, and there is a problem that the appearance is lacking in sense.

[0005] It is an object of the present invention to provide a suntan protective jacket that protects the entire area around the neck and the back of the head from sun rays such as ultraviolet rays, sufficiently prevents sunburn, and does not hinder sports competition. Is to do.

[0006]

Means for Solving the Problems and Action / Effects In order to solve the above-mentioned problems, a sunburn preventing jacket according to the present invention is provided at a vest portion covering the abdomen from the chest and at an upper opening of the vest portion. And a collar which covers from the neck to the back of the head.

[0007] With this configuration of the collar portion, the entire area around the neck and the back of the head are protected from ultraviolet rays and the like, and sunburn in that portion can be reliably prevented. In addition, since sunburn can be prevented without wrapping a special towel or the like, the appearance is good and there is no problem that hinders sports competition. The sunburn preventing outerwear having such a configuration is suitable not only for sports, but also for outdoor work, when going out for shopping and the like, and also as a caddy for golf and the like, and is suitable for sunburn prevention.

[0008] In the above outerwear, the collar can be opened forward at the front of the neck, and the collar can be extended from the front of the neck along the cheekbones in the circumferential direction and from the opening of the vest to the ear. It can be constituted by a neck covering part covering up to the height and an occipital covering part which is formed above the neck covering part, covers the ear from the ear, and further covers the occipital region along the occipital circumferential direction. By adopting such a configuration, the face is firmly turned up, but the neck covering part shades from the front of the neck to the ears,
The back of the occipital region can be shaded by the occipital region. In addition, a front neck covering portion that covers the front neck exposed by the front opening can be added to the front opening portion of the collar portion. This can also prevent sunburn on the front neck corresponding to the front opening of the collar.

[0009] The collar having the above-mentioned structure can have the following various structures.

(1) A configuration in which the back of the head is covered at least half or more in the vertical direction. As a result, it is more effective to shade from the entire neck to the back of the head, especially when wearing a hat,
If you adjust the size so that you can cover even the hem of the hat, you can prevent sunburn more effectively.

(2) A foldable structure capable of freely changing between a collared state and a bent state. When you do not need sun protection with a collar stand, you can fold the collar and bend the collar to function as a regular outerwear, and return it to the collar stand state to prevent sunburn Become. As the folding method, for example, a method in which a fold is formed in a collar portion and the fold is made along the fold can be adopted. The folding can be performed in a single-fold or several-folds to the extent that the collar is at the height of a normal collar or the collar is eliminated.

(3) A structure in which a collar reinforcing means for stably keeping a state of covering the back of the head is provided on the collar. As the collar reinforcing means, a cloth having a hardness capable of stably maintaining a state of covering the back of the head, that is, a collared state, or a reinforcing material in a longitudinal direction of the collar can be used. As the reinforcing material, for example, it is possible to provide sewing in the vertical direction at several places, or to incorporate a flexible elastic core material such as a core material that is easily elastically deformed, a core material having superelasticity, or a shape memory alloy. As a result, the collar skirt around the back of the head can be kept stable. Further, if the collar reinforcing means can be bent in the vertical direction by the above-mentioned core material (wire or the like), the above-mentioned bending of the collar can be easily performed without breaking the shape.

(4) A structure formed of a material having a sunlight blocking effect. For example, by forming a collar using a commercially available fabric made of a fiber for shielding sunlight such as ultraviolet rays or a fabric mixed with a material for shielding sunlight, the back of the head from the neck can be further protected from sunlight. The effect of preventing sunburn is further enhanced. In this case, a fiber having an ultraviolet shielding effect may be used.

(5) A structure detachably provided on the jacket portion. By being detachably provided, if the collar is removed, it can be used together as a daily outerwear. As the attachment / detachment method, for example, a velcro or a fastener can be used, and these are preferably provided near the upper opening of the jacket.

[0015] The sunburn-preventive outer garment of the present invention having the above-mentioned structure also functions as a cold wind evasion in winter, and the winterization becomes more effective especially when the occipital region is covered from the ears.

Further, the sleeve part of the sunburn-preventive jacket having the above-mentioned structure is formed of a cloth which is thinner or more breathable than the cloth of the body part and has an effect of blocking sunlight such as ultraviolet rays, and the cuffs thereof are formed as follows. The opening can be made with a substantially uniform sleeve width from the elbow of the sleeve. By adopting the sleeve portion having such a configuration, the arm is also prevented from sunburn, and the fabric is thinned or the fiber is coarsened, and the cuffs are opened in a cylindrical shape, so that the air permeability is good and it is also a measure against the heat in summer.

[0017]

Embodiments of the present invention will be described below with reference to embodiments shown in the drawings. FIG. 1 is a view showing an example of wearing a sunburn preventing jacket 1 as one embodiment of the present invention. The sunburn-preventing jacket 1 has a jacket 2 as a jacket main body covering the abdomen from the chest, and a collar 4 sewn to the upper opening 3 of the jacket 2. Collar 4
Is made of a commercially available fabric having a sun-ray shielding effect. The collar 4 extends along the cheekbone portion 6 from the front side 5 of the neck and covers the height of the neck around the neck, and a neck covering 8 above the neck covering 8. Occipital region 9 covering the occipital region along the occipital region in the circumferential direction
And is constituted by. In the present embodiment, the collar portion 4 is opened forward at the front side 5 of the neck, but may be closed by providing an engaging member such as a button or a fastener. The jacket 2 and the collar 4 are sewn together at the opening 3 by sewing. However, the jacket 2 and the collar 4 are integrally formed from one piece of fabric as shown in FIG. , That is, the collar portion 4 that is integrally continuous with the jacket portion 2.

The occipital region 9 is connected to the cheekbone portion 6 of the neck region 8 at the ear 7, and the connecting region 10
Is shaped like a letter "K", L-shaped, or curved with a predetermined curvature. The occipital region 9 rises upward from the temporal region to the occipital region, and covers the entire occipital region. Such a sunburn-preventing outerwear 1 protects the entire area around the neck and the back of the head from sunlight (e.g., ultraviolet rays) to prevent sunburn. Furthermore, the end 11 of the ear portion of the occipital region 9 and the end 12 of the cheekbone portion 6 of the neck region 8
Has a top portion and has a good appearance. The connecting portion 10 may be formed in a round surface (curve) shape that matches the contour of the cheekbone, and the end portions 11 and 12 may be formed in a round surface (curve) shape.

The outer edge (8 '+ 9') may be smoothly continuous from the upper side of the occipital region 9 to the front end of the neck region 8, as shown by a two-dot chain line in FIG. In this case, the boundary between the neck and occipital covering portions 8 ′ and 9 ′ is not clearly shown, but a portion corresponding to the neck and a portion corresponding to the occipital region are a neck covering portion 8 ′ and an occipital covering portion 9, respectively. '.

As shown in FIG. 2, if the cap 20 is worn and the size is adjusted so that the upper end of the head of the collar 4 covers the bottom of the cap 20, the back of the head can be more effectively protected from ultraviolet rays. Can be.

On the other hand, the collar portion 4 can be folded by making a fold such as seen in a shirt. In the example shown in FIG. 3, two folds are possible by two folds 30 and 31. The fold 30 is formed so as to straddle the ends 12 and 12 in the circumferential direction.
The upper end of the fold 30 is formed so as to straddle the end portions 11 and 11 in the circumferential direction. The folds 30 and 31 can be formed by, for example, forcing the fabric into folds.

The folding by the folds 30 and 31 can be performed as follows. First, as shown in FIG. 3B, the entire collar 4 can be bent from the opening 3 of the garment 2. This is because when the sunburn prevention is not performed, the neck is bent and the collar disappears, so the neck circumference is open and there is a refreshing feeling. On the other hand, as shown in FIG.
Only the fold 30, as shown in FIG.
31 can be folded. In this case, since the collar remains even when sun protection is not performed, it is effective when a collar is required. In particular, as shown in FIG. 3D, when the upper portion 32 of the occipital region 9 is folded inside the intermediate portion 33 at the fold 31 and the lower portion 34 is put in a collared state, the appearance is changed from that of a conventional shirt with a collar. It is more effective because there is no

Further, the collar 4 can be provided with a collar reinforcing means for stably keeping the state of covering the back of the head. Although it is possible to stir the collar 4 stably with a cloth having such a hardness that the collar 4 can be kept in a standing state, it is efficient to use the means as shown in FIG. FIG. 4 is a front view of the rear portion 4a of the collar portion 4 as viewed from the inside (that is, the side facing the neck). In FIG. 4A, a rear portion 4a of the collar 4 is
Plural (for example, three) suturing portions 4 as means for reinforcing the collar portion
0 is formed as a vertical stitch. The sewn portion 40 is for holding and correcting the collar stand, and the suturing fiber is desirably a fiber of the same material as the collar portion 4 or a fiber harder than that. Further, for example, a cloth (or a harder cloth or a synthetic resin sheet such as a plastic film) made of the same material as that of the collar part 4 is applied vertically to the inside (the side facing the neck) of the rear part 4a. Or sewn as a backing core (or integrated with the fabric by attachment or the like), the reinforcing effect is further improved.

In FIG. 4 (b), a wire 4 is provided inside the rear portion 4a of the collar 4 (the side facing the neck) as a collar reinforcing means.
5 are provided at three places. This is formed by forming a pocket 46 having one end opened in the vertical direction inside the rear portion 4a, and inserting a wire 45 into the pocket 46. As the wire 45, a commercially available shape memory alloy, an elastically deformable wire or strip, a superelastic wire or strip, or a synthetic resin can be used. The folding can be performed at 31. Here, if the core material has superelasticity, breakage hardly occurs due to metal fatigue or the like even when bending is repeated. When the shape memory alloy is used as the core material, for example, if the shape that stands up at 25 ° C. or more is stored, for example, so that the collar 4 stands under the scorching sun in the summer, it can be used in spring,
In the fall, the collar 4 may be maintained in a broken state, and the collar 4 may rise when the temperature rises above a certain level.

Further, as shown in FIG. 5, the collar portion 4 can be made removable by attaching / detaching means. The attachment / detachment means shown in FIG. 5 is performed by a magic tape 50 formed slightly below the opening 3. The magic tape 5
0 may be directly provided in the opening 3. Thus, by making it detachable, if the collar part 4 is removed, it can also be used as indoor everyday wear.

As shown in FIG. 6, a front neck covering portion 21 for covering the front opening portion (front side 5) of the neck covering portion 8 can be added. As shown in FIG. 7 (a), the covering portion 21 has a base sewn to one end of the neck covering portion 8 of the front opening portion 5 (seam 27), and a free end extending therefrom is attached to the neck covering portion. The other end of the device 8 is stopped by detachable stopping means (25) such as a button, a hook, and a crimp fastener. Thus, the front neck of the front opening portion 5 is also protected from ultraviolet rays and the like. In addition, as shown in FIG. 7B, the front neck cover 21 is formed integrally with the neck cover 8, and the front neck cover 21 is provided outside the neck cover 8 as shown in FIG. 7C. It is also possible to attach the front neck covering portion 21 to the neck covering portion 8 by means of a detachable stopping means 25 so as to be detachable as shown in FIG.

On the other hand, FIG. 8 shows a modification of the sunburn preventing jacket. This is because the fabric of the sleeve portion 60 of the sun protection coat 100 is made thinner than the fabric of the body portion 2 (mesh-like fabric) and is formed of a fiber having an effect of shielding sunlight (for example, blocking ultraviolet rays). The cuff 61 is opened in a cylindrical shape so that a gap is formed between the cuff 61 and the wrist. This sun protection coat 100 also prevents sunburn on the arm,
The material of the sleeve part 60 is thinned, and the cuff 61 is opened in a cylindrical shape.
Since a gap is provided between the wrist, the air permeability is improved. The collar 4 can be made of a thin material having good air permeability like the sleeve 60.

There is no particular limitation on the material constituting the above-described collar (or body), and there are no particular restrictions on the usual clothing fibers such as natural fibers such as cotton, hemp, silk, wool, cellulose, polyester, and the like. Synthetic fibers such as nylon and acrylic,
In addition to recycled fibers such as Bemberg and rayon, light-shielding fibers can also be used. These materials may be used alone or in combination of two or more.

Further, in order to enhance air permeability, a collar and / or
Or a knit or woven mesh fabric having a porosity of 1 to 50% and a knit or woven mesh fabric having an porosity of about 15 to 50% in order to provide more air permeability and cooling. The ventilation part which consists of can be arrange | positioned.

Further, when a material (fabric) having a sunlight shielding function is used for the collar and / or the vest, a yarn containing sunlight-reflective ceramic fine particles is used as a yarn constituting a mesh fabric of the knit or woven fabric, for example. It is also possible to use That is, in order to improve the cooling performance, for example, a polyester filament yarn (hereinafter, abbreviated as a cooling yarn) kneaded with titanium oxide, potassium titanate, alumina, zirconia and other ceramic particles having a high solar reflectivity is used. By doing, in addition to the solar reflectivity of the polyester itself,
Since the ceramic fine particles themselves dispersed in the yarn also have sunlight reflectivity, the sunlight reflectivity is further increased, and these cooling yarns are arranged on a mesh fabric surface of a knit or woven fabric arranged in a sunlight shielding portion or a ventilation portion. As a result, a synergistic effect of the sunlight shielding property and the sunlight reflection property is produced, the temperature in the clothes can be kept low, and the effect of blocking ultraviolet rays and preventing sunburn is more remarkably produced. The ratio of the sun-reflecting ceramic fine particles can be blended in the range of about 3 to 10 wt% with respect to the entire weight of the yarn. And a composition that satisfies the solar reflectivity.

The material used and contained as an ultraviolet absorber in the sunlight shielding, particularly for the ultraviolet shielding, is titanium oxide, a mixture of barium sulfate and titanium oxide, and an average particle diameter of 0.1 μm coated with a manganese compound.
The following inorganic fine particles, cupric salts of monocarboxylic acids or phenols (UK Patent 1,033,999), and soluble cobalt compounds (GB 1,121,2)
No. 21), a manganese or cobalt salt of an oxygen acid of phosphorus (East German Patent No. 102,714), an ultraviolet absorber (Japanese Patent Publication No. 43-23328), and the like. Any other material can be used.
