Description

  The present invention, for example, protects the head in the event of a fall accident or collision of a child such as a kindergarten child, or protects the player or the gallery head from a golf ball flying accident during a golf round, and crushes or folds it. The present invention relates to a protective hat that can be made compact and easy to store and carry.

  Children such as kindergarten children tend to injure their heads by falling or hitting play equipment. There have also been many reports of accidents in which a small child falls on a bicycle forehead or back on a bicycle for shopping, and the child thrown out of the bag slams his head for injury.

  As a means for preventing injury from such an accident, for example, a protective hat shown in Patent Document 1 has been conventionally proposed. The hat is configured to have impact resistance by providing a quilting place having a fiber body made of cotton or chemical fiber between a front cloth and a back cloth.

  Also, during golf rounds, an accident has occurred in which a hit ball hits another player or the head of a gallery. Golf ball flight accidents can be fatal and are very dangerous.

  Also in this case, for example, a protective hat shown in Patent Document 2 has been proposed. This hat is formed of a hard synthetic resin on the entire outer side of a portion formed so as to cover the head, and is configured by providing a foamed synthetic resin inside.

However, the above-described conventional protective hat has the following problems.
First of all, the hats for infants are thickly quilted to increase impact resistance. For this reason, the cap is not flexible enough to be crushed or folded into a compact state and the storage efficiency is poor. In addition, if the hat was forcibly crushed or folded, it could lose shape.

  Similarly, since the golf cap is entirely made of a hard synthetic resin, it cannot be crushed or folded into a compact state. Therefore, it was inconvenient to store and carry.

  An object of the present invention is to provide a protective cap that can be easily stored and carried by collapsing or folding a crowned portion so that the crowned portion can be made compact.

Means taken by the present invention to achieve the above object are as follows.
The present invention
A protective hat that has a built-in buffer and protects the head from external impacts.
A place corresponding to each of the lashes (600) constituting the crowned part (60), comprising a crowned part (60) having deformability or flexibility formed by stitching the pliable bricks (600) together. Is provided with a shock absorber (7) comprising a plurality of small pieces that are hard on the outside and cushioned on the inside and are divided in the length direction. It is provided with a gap that can be crushed or folded,
It is a protective hat.

  The protective hat that protects the head from external impacts includes a crown part having deformability or flexibility, and a cushioning body having cushioning properties crushes the crown part inside the crown part. Alternatively, it is preferably provided in a spiral shape, a spiral shape or a concentric shape with a gap to allow folding.

  It is preferable that the buffer body is formed by forming an elongated shape having a required length into a spiral shape or a spiral shape, or concentric shapes having ring shapes having different diameters.

  The protective hat that protects the head from an external impact has a deformable or flexible crowned portion, and the entire crowned portion is a small piece of a cushioning body that is hard on the outside and cushioned on the inside, It is preferable that a plurality of the crowned portions are provided in a state where gaps are formed so as to crush or fold the crowned portion.

  The shock absorber is preferably provided with means for dispersing the impact force.

  It is preferable that the buffer body is detachably provided on the hat body.

(Work)
The protective hat according to the present invention is worn by covering the crown portion on the head. Since the protective hat according to the present invention includes a buffer body inside the crowned portion, for example, even when the head is hit against a playground equipment or the like, the shock is mitigated and the head can be prevented from being injured. .
In addition, in the case where the entire crowned portion is provided with a small piece of a cushioning body that is hard on the outside and cushioning on the inside, for example, when a ball for a golf ball hits the crowned portion, Because it can relieve the impact when bounced by the side having cushioning properties, it is hard to get hurt.

  The protective cap according to the present invention is provided in a spiral shape, a spiral shape or a concentric shape with a gap between the shock absorber so as to crush or fold the crown portion in the crown portion. Moreover, the protective cap which concerns on this invention is provided with two or more with the clearance gap which makes the small piece of a buffer body crush or fold a crowned part. Therefore, for example, if a force is applied from above, the crowned portion of the portion corresponding to the gap can be deformed and the crowned portion can be crushed or folded.

  If the shock absorber is provided with means for dispersing the impact force, the impact receiving area can be widened so that the impact force is not partially applied.

  If the buffer body is detachably provided on the hat body, the buffer body can be detached from the hat body or attached to the hat body.

The present invention has the above-described configuration and has the following effects.
(A) Since the protective cap according to the present invention includes a shock absorber on the inner side of the crowned portion, for example, even when the head is hit against a play equipment, the shock is relieved by the shock absorber, and the head is injured. Can be prevented.
In addition, in the case where the entire crowned portion is provided with a small piece of a cushioning body that is hard on the outside and cushioned on the inside, for example, when a ball for golf ball hits the crowned portion, the ball on the hard side Because it can relieve the impact when bounced and hit by the side having cushioning properties, it is hard to be injured.

(B) The protective hat according to the present invention is provided in a spiral shape, a spiral shape, or a concentric shape with a gap between the shock absorber so as to crush or fold the crown portion in the crown portion. Moreover, the protective cap which concerns on this invention is provided with two or more pieces with the clearance gap which makes the small piece of a buffer body crush or fold a crowned part. Therefore, for example, if a force is applied from above, the crowned portion of the portion corresponding to the gap can be deformed and the crowned portion can be crushed or folded. Thus, since the protective hat can be made compact, the storage efficiency is good. It is easy to carry and convenient to carry.

(C) In the protective cap according to the present invention, since the shock absorber is provided with a gap, an air layer corresponding to the thickness of the shock absorber can be formed in the crowned portion when worn. Thereby, for example, it has the effect that it is hard to get stuffy in summer and is excellent in the heat retaining effect in winter.

(D) If the shock absorber is provided with means for dispersing the impact force, the impact force can be prevented from being partially concentrated, so that the burden on the wearer when receiving the impact can be reduced.

(E) If the buffer body is detachably provided on the hat body, the buffer body can be detached from the hat body or attached to the hat body. Thus, for example, only the cushion can be washed or replaced. In addition, the buffer body can be provided in another hat body, and in this case, for example, the user's favorite hat can be changed to one with a buffer body.

Embodiments of the present invention will be described in more detail with reference to the drawings.
FIG. 1 is an explanatory perspective view showing a first embodiment of a protective hat according to the present invention,
2 is a perspective explanatory view of the protective hat shown in FIG.
3 is a bottom view of the protective cap shown in FIG.

Reference numeral H1 denotes a protective hat for an infant. The protective hat H <b> 1 includes a hat body 1.
The hat main body 1 is formed by stitching together six substantially triangular tendons 100 having flexibility to form a hemispherical crowned portion (also referred to as “crown”) 10, and an outer edge portion of the crowned portion 10. The collar portion 11 is provided around the entire circumference.
In the present embodiment, the crowned portion 10 and the collar portion 11 constituting the hat main body 1 are formed using a cotton cloth. However, the material forming the hat body 1 is not limited to this, and for example, a material made of natural fibers such as silk or hemp or a material made of synthetic fibers may be used.

A strip 101 having a required width is sewn over the entire length of the seam so as to hide the seam of the spatula 100 at the inner portion where the seam 100 is sewn together. Three band cloths 101 are provided so as to intersect at the center portion (also referred to as “crown top”) of the crowned portion 10, so to speak, a radial shape is formed from the center portion.
In addition, a connecting band 102 having a required width is sewn at a portion where the crown portion 10 and the collar portion 11 are in contact with each other so as to form an annular shape over the entire circumference. The connecting band 102 is also sewn together with the band cloth 101.

Further, in the crowned portion 10, a buffer member 2, which is a buffer body for reducing an impact received from the outside, is provided. The buffer member 2 has deformability or flexibility, and is formed so as to have a required length by filling a solid buffer material into a thin tube body.
The buffer material filled in the tube body in the present embodiment uses a synthetic resin material having a small-diameter pipe shape, but this is not limited, and for example, a fibrous or granular material may be used. . Moreover, you may use the thing made from other synthetic resins, such as natural things, such as cotton, polyethylene, a polypropylene, foaming styrene, and foaming urethane.

  The buffer member 2 is fixed at one end to the center portion of the crowned portion 10 and is provided in a spiral shape (spiral shape) so that a gap is formed from the end toward the outer edge. The band 102 is sewn. The above-described gap may be an interval that helps crush or fold the crowned portion 10. In this embodiment, the width is set to about 10 to 15 mm, but the width of the gap is not particularly limited as long as it can help to crush or fold the crowned portion 10.

Ear protection portions 3 and 3 are provided at two locations facing each other on the side of the flange portion 11 of the buffer member 2 so as to surround the ear when worn. The ear protection parts 3 and 3 are formed using the same material as that of the buffer member 2, and are provided in a substantially “U” shape by sewing both ends of the ear protection part 3 at a predetermined interval.
Between the lower portions of the ear protection portions 3 and 3, a stretchable chin cord 4 made of a rubber cord is provided so as to be gently bridged.

According to the protective cap H1, for example, even when the head is hit against a playground equipment or the like, the shock is mitigated by the buffer member 2, so that the head can be prevented from being injured. Further, since the ear protection parts 3 and 3 are also formed of the same material as the buffer member and have a buffering effect, for example, even when the ball hits the side part of the head, the impact can be reduced.

Since the protective cap H1 is spirally provided in the crowned part 10 with the cushioning member 2 provided with a gap, if a force is applied from above as shown in FIG. 100 is deformed, and the buffer member 2 moves in the direction in which there is a gap. Therefore, it can be easily crushed. Thus, since the protective hat H1 can be made compact, the storage efficiency is good.
It is easy to carry and convenient to carry.

  Thus, since the thin and flexible spatula 100 is deformed, the protective hat H1 is easy to return to its original shape when used and is not easily deformed even when it is stored in a collapsed state.

  The protective cap H1 is simple to manufacture because it is only necessary to provide the shock-absorbing member 2 made of a tube body having a required length around the inner surface of the cap body 1 in a spiral shape.

  Further, since the protective cap H1 is provided so that the buffer member forms a gap, an air layer corresponding to the thickness of the buffer member 2 can be formed in the crowned portion 10 even when worn. Thereby, for example, it has the effect that it is hard to get stuffy in summer and is excellent in the heat retaining effect in winter.

  In the present embodiment, the protective hat H1 is shown as an example for infants, but this is not a limitation and can be configured as a hat for adults. Further, the shape of the hat main body is not limited to the illustrated shape, and various shapes such as a cap shape and a hat shape can be employed.

  In the present embodiment, the buffer member 2 is formed by filling a thin buffer body with a solid buffer material. However, this is not limited, and the cushioning property and the deformability, flexibility, etc. are not limited. If it has, for example, a tube filled with gas or liquid (including gel) may be used, or a tube in which a buffer member is formed in a solid state in advance may be used. . For example, in the case of a liquid-filled one, it is possible to give an effect of warming or cooling the head by warming or cooling the liquid.

FIG. 5 is a bottom view showing a second embodiment of the protective cap according to the present invention.
In FIG. 5, the same or equivalent parts as those shown in FIGS. 1 to 4 are given the same reference numerals. Further, in the following description, the description overlapping with the above-described part of the structure is omitted except for necessary matters.

  The protective cap H2 includes a plurality of buffer members 20, 21, 22, and 23 that are ring-shaped buffer bodies having different diameters, and are provided concentrically. Since the operation of the protective hat H2 is the same as that of the protective hat H1, the description is omitted.

FIG. 6 is an exploded perspective view showing a third embodiment of the protective cap according to the present invention.
In FIG. 6, the same or equivalent parts as those shown in FIGS. 1 to 4 are given the same reference numerals. Further, in the following description, the description overlapping with the above-described part of the structure is omitted except for necessary matters.

The protective hat H3 includes a hat body 1a and a buffer body 5 that is detachably attached to the hat body 1a.
The hat body 1a includes a crowned portion 10 formed by stitching the spatula 100 and a collar portion 11 provided on the entire periphery of the outer edge portion of the crowned portion 10, and the stitching portion of the spatula 100 includes A band cloth 101a provided with a constituent member of a hook-and-loop fastener constituting the attaching / detaching means is sewn on the surface (lower surface).

The buffer body 5 is provided with a band cloth 50 provided radially so as to correspond to the band cloth 101a of the crowned portion 10 described above. On the surface (upper surface) of the band cloth 50, the above-described hook-and-loop fastener and detachable components are provided. A band-shaped connecting band 51 having a required width is provided at the end of the band cloth 50 so as to be annular over the entire circumference. A buffer member 52, which is a buffer body having a required length, is sewn in a spiral shape (spiral shape) on the inner side of the band fabric 50 and the connecting band 51.
The buffer member 52 has the same structure as the buffer body 2 described above.

(Work)
With reference to FIG. 6, the operation of the protective cap H3 shown in the present embodiment will be described.
In addition, description is abbreviate | omitted about the same effect | action and effect which arise by the structure common to the above-mentioned protective hat H1, and only a different point is demonstrated.

  The protective hat H3 is used in a state in which the buffer body 5 is put inside the hat body 1a, and the band cloth 50 constituting the buffer body 5 is integrally attached to the band cloth 101a constituting the hat body 1a with a hook-and-loop fastener. The Since the protective cap H3 integrates the buffer body 5 and the cap main body 1a by the hook-and-loop fastener in this way, it can be easily separated. Thereby, for example, only the buffer 5 can be washed or replaced. Further, the buffer body 5 can be provided in another hat body, and in this case, for example, the user's favorite hat can be changed to one having a buffer body.

Reference numeral H4 denotes a cap-shaped protective hat. The protective hat H4 includes a hat body 6. The hat main body 6 is formed by stitching together six substantially triangular tendons 600 having flexibility to form a hemispherical crowned portion 60, and a collar portion 61 is provided on a part of the crowned portion 60. It is configured. A net-like (mesh-like) backing cloth 601 (see FIG. 10) is provided on the inner surface of the crowned portion 60.
In the present embodiment, the crowned portion 60 and the collar portion 61 constituting the hat body 6 are formed using a cotton cloth. However, the material forming the hat body 6 is not limited to this, and for example, a material made of natural fibers such as silk or hemp or a material made of synthetic fibers may be used.

  A shock absorber 7 for reducing the impact received from the outside is sandwiched and incorporated between the renge 600 and the backing cloth 601. The shock absorber 7 has substantially the same size and shape as each of the spatula 600 constituting the crowned portion 60, and is provided at six locations so as to correspond to each spatula 600.

  Each buffer body 7 has a bag body 70 in which two woven fabrics 700 made of synthetic resin having a substantially triangular shape having flexibility are overlapped and the entire periphery of the outer edge portion is stitched together (FIG. 8). reference). An impact absorbing member 71 is provided inside the bag body 70. The shock absorbing member 71 originally has a substantially triangular shape that is the same as the shape of the bag body 70, and is formed of four small pieces that are curved along the spherical shape of the crowned portion 60 and divided in the length direction. It is formed as follows.

The shock absorbing member 71 includes a hard portion 710 made of a hard synthetic resin on the outer side, and a soft portion 711 made of a foamed synthetic resin is stacked on the inner side. In addition, the outer surface of the hard portion 710 is formed so that a crest and a trough are continuous in the width direction and have an uneven shape (see FIGS. 8, 9, and 10). Each small piece is formed so that the one disposed on the collar portion 61 side of the hat main body 6 is larger than the one disposed on the central portion side, and the interval in the width direction between the peak portion and the valley portion is widened. is there. A hollow portion 712 is provided inside the hard portion 710 (see FIG. 10). The uneven shape formed on the outer surface of the hard portion 710 constitutes a means for dispersing the impact force on the buffer.
In the present embodiment, the shock absorbing member 71 has the hard portion 710 formed of a hard synthetic resin and the soft portion 711 formed of a foamed synthetic resin. However, this is not limited. For example, if the hard part can bounce off the impacted ball or the like, for example, metal, bamboo, wood, etc. can be used, and if the soft part can reduce the impact, for example, cotton. Or other synthetic resins (including non-foamed ones) can be used.

  Each shock absorbing member 71 is built in the bag body 70 with a necessary gap provided between the small pieces. The bag body 70 incorporating each shock absorbing member 71 is provided with a perforation 701 at a position corresponding to the above-described gap, so that the small pieces are not displaced and overlapped in the bag body 70, and a gap is always formed between them. (See FIG. 8).

(Work)
FIG. 11 is an explanatory perspective view showing a state in which the protective cap shown in FIG. 7 is crushed by applying a force from above.
With reference to FIG. 7 thru | or FIG. 11, the effect | action of the protective cap H4 shown in this Embodiment is demonstrated.

  The protective hat H4 is worn with the crown 60 covered on the head. According to the protective cap H4, for example, even when a golf ball hits the crowned portion 60, the ball is bounced back by the hard portion 710 of the shock absorbing member 71, and the impact when hit by the flexible portion 711 is reduced. Can do. In addition, the hard portion 710 of the shock absorbing member 71 includes a hollow portion 712 and can be slightly deformed by hitting the ball. This also reduces the shock. Therefore, even when the ball hits the crowned portion 60, it is difficult to be injured.

  Further, the protective cap H4 is formed so that the hard portion 710 of the shock absorbing member 71 that rebounds the ball has an uneven shape, so that the ball hits the mountain portion across the valley portion. In this case, since the impact force of the ball is distributed and received over a wide area, the impact is not partially concentrated, and the burden on the wearer when receiving the impact is reduced. This also makes the shock absorbing member 71 difficult to break. The shock absorbing member 71 has a required gap between the small pieces, but since this gap is set to such an extent that the golf ball does not enter, the impact by the ball surely hits the shock absorbing member 71. .

  In the protective cap H4, the small pieces of the shock absorbing member 71 are formed with a gap in the bag body, and each small piece is prevented from moving by the perforation 701. Therefore, as shown in FIG. If given, the portion 600 corresponding to the gap can be deformed and easily crushed. Thus, the protective hat H4 has a compact shape and good storage efficiency. It is easy to carry and convenient to carry.

  The protective hat H4 is deformed by the thin and flexible spatula 600, so that even when it is crushed and stored, it is easy to return to its original shape when used and difficult to lose its shape.

  The terms and expressions used in this specification are merely explanatory and are not limiting at all, and exclude terms and expressions equivalent to the features described in this specification and parts thereof. There is no intention to do. It goes without saying that various modifications are possible within the scope of the technical idea of the present invention.
