DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a hat that protects the face and neck from sunlight and ultraviolet rays when watching sports outdoors and has excellent portability.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art Hitherto, as a hat for sunshade, a so-called sun visor type hat provided with a large eave protruding forward of the head, or a hat having a shape covering from the head to the shoulder has been used.

An example of the former is disclosed in Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 58-137.

93820, JP-A-60-105620, JP-A-0
JP-A-1-141732 and JP-A-03-11021 are exemplified. Above all, JP-A-11-302
The hat described in Japanese Patent No. 914 (prior art 1) uses a scarf attached to the lower portion on both sides of a sun visor-type hat to prevent sunburn around the cheeks and neck. In the hat disclosed in Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 01-141732 (prior art 2), a scarf is detachably attached to a sun visor-type hat to prevent sunburn of the neck and face. Both features are characterized in that a detachable cloth member is added to an appropriate position of the sun visor to cover not only the face but also the neck circumference.

An example of the latter is disclosed in Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 09-273.

No. 829, for example. JP-A-09-
Japanese Patent Publication No. 273018 (prior art 3) emphasizes that when worn, the head as a whole is covered without gaps, the forehead and the vicinity of the back neck rise to flares, hair disorder is reduced, and fashion is emphasized. A hat wrap is disclosed. Fixation to the head at the time of wearing is performed by tying a string provided on the collar wrap under the chin. JP-A-10-9115
The hat disclosed in Japanese Unexamined Patent Application Publication No. 2000-209 (Prior Art 4) has a form in which only the face portion is exposed and the entire head and neck area are covered, as is clear from the title of the invention of the UV-cut farm hat. Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 62-28829 (Prior Art 5) describes a face-reflection sunburn preventive device whose main material is a fabric covering the face below the eyes and the neck and shoulders.

[0005]

However, the above-mentioned prior art has the following disadvantages. (1) In the hats of the prior art 1 and the prior art 2, the head circumference which cannot be sufficiently shaded by the eaves of the sun visor can be dealt with by wrapping a scarf around the head. However, it becomes hot and there is doubt about long-term use.

[0006] (2) In the collar with a hat according to the prior art 3, since the hat covering the head is made of one piece of cloth,
The hat moves freely with respect to the head. Since it is fixed using a string under the chin, the collar with the hat is pressed against the head and the neck, the neck becomes hot, and a refreshing feeling cannot be expected.

(3) The inventions of the prior arts 4 and 5 can also be expected to have a sufficient effect of preventing sunshade, but the ventilation around the neck and the like are poor and the wearing feeling is not good, so that they are not suitable for long-time use. No Further, since these two inventions are suitable for agricultural work, fashionability is hardly considered.

Further, all of the above-mentioned hats according to the prior art can be folded and carried around at the time of non-wearing, and no special measures are taken for their portability.

The present invention has been made in view of such conventional problems, and has as its object to provide a portable and convenient hat which can prevent sunburn while keeping the neck cool.

[0010]

In order to achieve the above object, a hat according to the present invention has a reversible bag-shaped storage portion, one side of which is fixed around the outer edge of the storage portion, and the other side is free. The sun shade cloth is provided so as to be able to be stored in the storage section. In the hat according to the present invention, it is preferable that a periphery of the outer edge of the storage portion has a seam portion on the side that comes into contact with the head when worn so as to surround the top of the head when covered. Further, in the hat according to the present invention, it is preferable that the storage portion includes a member having a hair fastening function on a side that comes into contact with the head when worn. Further, in the hat according to the present invention, it is preferable that a member having a shape straddling the stitching portion is provided, and the member having the hair fastening function is disposed therein.

[0011]

Embodiments of the present invention will be described below with reference to the drawings. 1 to 5 show an embodiment of the present invention. The hat according to the embodiment of the present invention has at least one opening 4 in a region which becomes a top when worn.
A bag-shaped storage portion 1 having a
Is provided with a awning cloth 3 having a flared shape in which one side is fixed and the other side is free (see FIGS. 1, 2 and 5). The bag-shaped storage unit 1 is reversible. Awning cloth 3
Can be stored in the storage unit 1. The outer periphery 2 of the storage portion 1 has a substantially circular stitching portion 5 protruding so as to surround the top of the head when covered, on the side in contact with the head when worn (see FIG. 3). The storage section 1 is provided with a member 6 having a hair fastening function on the side that comes into contact with the head when worn (see FIG. 3). A member 7 having a shape straddling the stitching portion 5 is provided, and a member 6 having a hair fastening function is arranged on the member 7 (see FIG. 3).

When this is used, the storage unit 1 is placed on the top of the head of the wearer, and the sun shade cloth 3 is hung around the head. Since the storage section 1 has a bag shape, it has at least a double thickness consisting of an outer material and a lining, so that it has appropriate hardness and can be stably mounted on the top of the head.
Also, a light accessory such as a handkerchief can be put into the storage section 1 through the opening 4 and placed. The awning cloth 3 that is hung around the head is adjusted to have a length and a thickness sufficient to protect the face and the neck from sunlight. As a result, sunburn can be prevented, and since the outside air can be constantly taken into the face and neck, a ventilation effect can be expected. Furthermore, by forming the free side 3a of the sunshade cloth 3 by the bias cutting method, the free side 3a can have flexibility. It is also possible to give a refreshing feeling when touching.

The material of the storage section 1 and the awning cloth 3 can be any material, ie, a woven fabric, provided that it does not give heat when worn.
It may be a knitted fabric, a nonwoven fabric, a brushed product, a lace, a synthetic resin sheet, or the like. However, for the purpose of further promoting the above-mentioned refreshing feeling, the material of the sunscreen cloth 3 is preferably silk or rayon. However, for the purpose of protecting the sunshade cloth 3, embroidery or border may be provided on the free side 3a.

The most significant feature of this hat is that it has a storage section 1. As described above, the storage unit 1 functions as a small container when worn over the head, but when this product is not used, a bag-shaped space formed by turning the storage unit 1 over as shown in FIG. This product can be stored in the storage unit 1 at the maximum by packing the sunshade cloth 3 therein. Therefore, the hat can be carried around in a bag, a pocket or the like, realizing excellent portability.

Further, opening / closing means 8 such as buttons, snaps, and hook-and-loop fasteners can be provided in the opening 4 of the storage section 1 as appropriate. In addition, this opening / closing means 8 and the opening 4 are covered,
For the purpose of keeping the appearance of the storage section 1 and the like, it is preferable to arrange a decoration 9 such as a ribbon as shown in FIG. FIG.
A region surrounded by a dotted line in shows an example of a portion suitable for providing the decoration 9.

A substantially circular protruding stitching portion 5 provided around the outer edge 2 of the storage portion 1 and in contact with the head at the time of mounting is fixed to the outer periphery 2 of the storage portion 1 and the sunshade cloth 3. Although this is a portion generated by stitching the sides, the presence of the stitching portion 5 improves the sitting state of the storage portion 1 with respect to the head and provides a stable feeling of wearing. FIG. 3 shows a case where the protruding stitching portion 5 is formed in a substantially circular shape as an example. However, the shape is not limited to a substantially circular shape as long as it can be easily placed on the head. Although not shown, the interlining is inserted into the stitching portion 5 to increase the rigidity of the stitching portion 5 and further improve the feeling of wearing.

Furthermore, the storage section 1 is provided with a member 6 having a hair fastening function on the side that comes into contact with the head when worn, so that the hat can be prevented from being blown off by the influence of wind or the like. FIG. 3 shows an example in which a member 7 having a shape straddling the stitching portion 5 is provided, and a member 6 having a hair fastening function is arranged on the member 7. The member 7 has an effect when the member 6 having the hair fastening function is directly provided in the storage portion 1, such as a defect such as a lining of the storage portion 1, that is, a fabric on the side in contact with the head at the time of wearing is deformed. Can be avoided, and the strength, appearance, stability, and the degree of freedom of the installation location can be improved. However, the member 6 having the hair fastening function may be provided directly on the stitching portion 5, for example, without providing the member 7.

Further, a mesh-like member 10 is provided on the lining of the storage section 1, that is, on the cloth on the side which comes into contact with the head at the time of wearing, so that it is possible to further improve the feeling of wearing and refreshing. In the above description, the case where the cap is used directly on the head has been described. However, the cap of the present embodiment may be used over a separately prepared hat. In this case, installation can be facilitated by providing a cap pin (not shown) such as a safety pin.

As described above, the hat according to the present embodiment is provided with the bag-shaped storage portion 1 in a region that becomes the top of the head when worn, and one side is fixed around the outer edge 2 of the storage portion 1 and the other side. By providing the hem-spreading awning cloth 3, which is free, the sunburn of the head, face, and neck can be prevented and protected. at the same time,
It does not hinder the wind from blowing into the shaded head, face, and neck muscles, increasing the refreshing feeling.Furthermore, the entire body can be made of fabric, so it can be lightweight, so it can be worn for a long time. It is possible to maintain exhilaration.

The material of the awning cloth 3 and the side 3a forming its freedom
By devising the processing method, the refreshing feeling can be further increased. Furthermore, since the shape of the free side 3a changes successively by fluttering in the wind, the hat of the present embodiment can dynamically change its appearance.
Therefore, the hat according to the present embodiment can have an excellent aesthetic appearance. Further, the awning cloth 3 whose form is dynamically changed can further enhance the refreshing feeling by appropriately selecting its color, pattern, pattern, and the like. It is possible to bring out. That is, the present invention makes it possible to provide a hat that also has excellent fashionability.

The storage unit 1 functions as an accessory case when it is mounted on the head, but when this product is not used, the storage unit 1 is placed inside a bag-like space that can be turned upside down. By packing the awning cloth 3, the entire product can be stored in the storage section 1. Therefore, the hat according to the present embodiment also has extremely excellent portability.
