Description

  The present invention relates to an eyelid under an eye for blocking reflected sunlight that bounces off a road surface or the like.

  Conventionally, as a means to block the direct sunlight from the sun and reduce glare caused by the direct sunlight illuminating, it is provided at least in front of the mounting part and the mounting part to be worn on the person's head There is a known hat with a heel having an upper heel covering the eyes of the person wearing the hat. And the upper side hook in this hat with a hook blocks the direct sunlight from above, so that the direct sunlight is not directly inserted into the wearer's eyes. Thereby, it is avoided that the direct sunlight of the sun shines on the wearer wearing the hat with the hook, and the wearer is prevented from feeling dazzling.

  However, a hat with a heel that covers the eyes of the wearer works effectively against direct sunlight from above, but the light that illuminates the eyes of the wearer wearing the hat It is not limited to direct sunlight from above. For this reason, the sunshade of people who are fishing especially during the day and those who are always engaged in outdoor work has a problem that cannot be prevented by such a hat with a hook alone. That is, for example, in the case of a fisherman, direct sunlight may hit the sea surface, and the sunlight reflected by the sea surface may illuminate the eyes and feel dazzle by the light. In addition, for those who are working outdoors, the reflected sunlight that bounces off the road surface may enter the eyes and feel dazzling. In particular, the reflected sunlight reflected by the snowy surface in winter is relatively strong in ultraviolet rays, and when such reflected sunlight illuminates the eyes for a relatively long time, the eyes caused by ultraviolet rays commonly called “Yukime” May cause keratitis.

  In order to protect the eyes by blocking such reflected sunlight, an awning that can be mounted on the upper eyelid by providing a slot in the upper face of the face plate made of a resin plate to receive the upper eyelid of the hat with a hook. A face body has been proposed (see, for example, Patent Document 1). In this sunshade mask, when the slot is put into the upper heel of the hat with a hook, the mask is set to cover the front face of the face vertically and shields light other than direct sunlight from above. .

JP 2007-284853 A

  However, the above-mentioned conventional sunshade mask is provided with a slot into which the upper heel of the hat with a heel is inserted and is attached to the upper heel. For this reason, in such an awning mask, it cannot be attached to other hats with different heel shapes, and this awning mask is to be attached to each hat with different heels. It is necessary to prepare. For this reason, when the kind of hat with a hook increases, the kind of sunshade mask used for them also increased, and there existed a malfunction which increased those management burdens. Further, since this mask covers the front of the face, there is also a problem that the front field of view is blocked when the mask becomes dirty.

  In addition, since the sunshade mask is attached to the upper heel of the hat with a hook, a gap is created between the face of the person wearing the hat with the hook and the mask. For this reason, in the case of anglers and outdoor workers standing in the same place for a long time, reflected sunlight from the water surface or reflected sunlight from beneath the hot air on the road surface is between the face and its face. Since it may enter and illuminate the eyes, there is still a problem to be solved that the eyes are not protected and the glare cannot be avoided by the reflected sunlight.

  An object of the present invention is to provide an eyelid that can avoid glare caused by reflected sunlight that is reflected by direct sunlight from the sun hitting the sea surface or the ground surface without obstructing the forward field of view.

  The present invention is an eyelid under an eye provided with a plate-like eyelid and a wearing tool that fixes the eyelid between the eye and cheek of the wearer or protruding forward from the cheek.

  The wearing tool is configured to stand on the base end side of the heel and come into contact with the face of the wearer, and to be provided in both ends of the contact band so as to form an annular shape with the contact band. The size adjustment band in this case is preferably a stretchable elastic body. On the other hand, the ridge is preferably formed in a mountain shape in which the center in the width direction rises upward.

  The eyelid under the eyes of the present invention is provided with a eyelid covering the front lower front of the wearer wearing the eyelid under the eye, so that the sun shields the reflected sunlight received from directly below the sun when the direct sunlight from the sun hits the sea surface. Thus, glare caused by reflected sunlight can be avoided.

  In addition, the eyelid under the eyes of the present invention is equipped with a wearing tool for fixing the eyelid between the eyes and cheeks of the wearer or protruding forward from the cheeks. Unlike the awning mask, the wearer can wear the heel under the eyes with or without a heeled hat. For this reason, even if it is a hat with a different kind of heel, the heel under the single eye in this invention can be used, and the kind does not increase.

  Furthermore, although the eyelid under the eyes of the present invention includes a eyelid that covers the lower front of the field of view, there is nothing that blocks the front of the field of view. Therefore, the field of vision in front of the person wearing the eyelid under the eyes is not obstructed by the eyelid under the eyes of the present invention.

It is a side view of a person wearing a eyelid under an eye of an embodiment of the present invention. It is a front view of the person wearing the eyelid under the eye. It is the perspective view which looked at the eyelid under the eye from diagonally upward. It is the perspective view which looked at the eyelid under the eye from diagonally downward. It is the perspective view which looked at the eyelid under another eye of this invention from diagonally upward. It is a side view of a person wearing the eyelid under the other eye. It is the perspective view which looked at the eyelid under another eye of this invention from diagonally upward. It is a side view of a person wearing the eyelid under the other eye.

  Next, the best mode for carrying out the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings.

  1 to 4 show the eyelid 10 under the eyes of the present invention. The eyelid 10 under the eyes of the present invention has a plate shape and a crescent shape or a half-moon shape, and a state in which the eyelid 11 protrudes forward between the eyes and cheeks of the wearer M or from the cheeks. And the mounting tool 12 to be fixed by the. This heel 11 covers the wearer M's front view lower side, and a thin plate-like core material (not shown) made of a resin such as polyethylene, which is slightly collapsed, has a crescent shape or a half moon shape. An example of this is a material that is warped and coated with a cloth or the like. Moreover, although this collar 11 is plate-shaped, it is formed in the mountain shape which the center of the width direction rises upwards. By forming the heel 11 into a mountain shape, the nasal column and the heel 11 of the wearer M of the heel 10 under the eyes are prevented from coming into direct contact.

  On the other hand, the wearing tool 12 for fixing the heel 11 to the wearer M is provided with a contact band 13 standing on the proximal end side of the heel 11 and contacting the face of the wearer M, and both ends of the contact band 13. And a fabric size adjustment band 14 respectively extending from the section. The plate-like ridge 11 has a cloth covering the core on the base end side and is sewn to the upper edge of the contact band 13, whereby the contact band 13 is erected on the base end side of the ridge 11. Is done. The abutment band 13 is made of the same cloth as the cloth on the outer surface of the heel 11 so as not to cause an uncomfortable appearance when it comes into contact with the face of the wearer M. The abutment band 13 is provided along the base end side of the heel 11 so as to be orthogonal to the heel 11, and the portion that contacts the nose of the wearer M is bent 13a according to the swelling of the nose. (FIG. 4) is formed. Due to the bending 13a, the contact band 13 is provided on the nose of the wearer M and on both sides of the nose between the eyes and cheeks of the wearer or in contact with the cheeks.

  The size adjustment bands 14 that are provided at both ends of the contact band 13 and constitute the mounting device 12 are provided at both ends of the contact band 13 and are configured to form a ring with the contact band 13. Is done. The contact band 13 in the drawing has a length of about 50 cm, for example, and its width is about 2 to 4 cm. The size adjustment band 14 in this embodiment is provided so as to extend from both end portions of the contact band 13, and is a short band having a length of about 3 to 7 cm with a rectangular frame-shaped ring 14c attached to the tip. 14a and the total length of the male removable tape 14e sewn on the outer peripheral side in the range of about 5-7cm from the tip and the female removable tape 14d sewn on the outer peripheral side of the range of about 4-6cm from the base end Is formed of a long band 14b of about 10 to 18 cm, and the long band 14b is passed through the ring 14c and folded at an appropriate position to engage the male and female removable tapes 14e and 14d. 14 and the contact band 13, and is configured so that the circumferential length of the annular mounting tool 12 can be adjusted.

  As shown in FIG. 1 and FIG. 2, the eyelid 10 under the eyes in the present invention configured as described above usually includes a general hat 20 having an upper eyelid 21 that covers the upper side of the wearer's M eye. The wearer is used as necessary. In the figure, a so-called baseball cap type hat 20 with a heel is shown. When the heel hat 20 having such an upper heel 21 is worn on the head, the upper heel 21 is positioned above the field of view of the wearer M. Therefore, the upper ridge 21 in the hooded hat 20 blocks direct sunlight from directly above to prevent the light from shining directly on the eyes of the wearer M, thereby avoiding glare.

  On the other hand, it is necessary to avoid the sunlight reflected by the bounce from the bottom when the sunlight from the sun hits the sea surface or the road surface, for example, for anglers who stay outdoors all day long and for traffic control people in road construction. is there. In such a case, the eyelid 10 under the eyes of the present invention is used together with the above-described hat 20 with the eyelid.

  In wearing the eyelid 10 under the eyes of the present invention, as shown in FIGS. 1 and 2, the contact bands 13 are placed on both sides of the nose of the wearer M and between or between the eyes and the cheeks. Then, the heel 11 is maintained in a state of protruding forward from the lower side of the eye of the wearer M. In this manner, with the heel 11 protruding between the eyes and cheeks of the wearer M or forwardly from the cheeks, the size adjustment band 14 of the annular wearing tool 12 is positioned above the back of the head and the ring By pulling the long band 14b passed through 14c, the circumferential length of the annular mounting tool 12 is reduced, and the contact band 13 is maintained between the eye and the cheek of the wearer M or in contact with the cheek. In this state, the long belt 14b is folded back, and the male and female removable tapes 14e and 14d are engaged to fix the heel 11 in a state protruding forward from the lower side of the wearer's eyes. Then, the ridge 11 located under the eyes hits the sea surface or the road surface, blocks the reflected sunlight due to rebounding from below, and prevents the light from shining directly on the eyes of the wearer M to reduce glare.

  In particular, since the heel 11 is formed in a mountain shape whose center in the width direction is raised upward, it is possible to prevent the proximal end facing the face of the heel 11 from coming into contact with the nose of the wearer M. And the central part which forms the mountain shape fits a nose, and shields the reflected sunlight which enters from the nose circumference effectively. Further, the contact band 13 provided on the base end side facing the face of the heel 11 is on both sides of the nose of the wearer M, and is in contact with or between the eyes and the cheek. At the same time, the eyelid 11 reliably shields the reflected sunlight that enters from around the nose, and can effectively avoid a situation in which the reflected sunlight shines on the eyes of the wearer M.

  In addition, the heel 10 under the eyes of the present invention is attached to the person wearing the normal hat 20 from the top of the hat 20, so that, like a conventional awning mask, Even if the shape of the heel of the hooked cap 20 is different, the heel 10 under the single eye of the present invention can be mounted together with such a hooked cap 20. For this reason, the kind of the eyelid 10 under the eyes does not increase, and a situation in which the management burden increases can be avoided.

  Furthermore, the eyelid 10 under the eyes of the present invention includes the eyelid 11 that covers the lower front of the visual field, but there is nothing that blocks the front of the visual field. For this reason, the field of vision in front of the person wearing the eyelid 10 under the eyes is not blocked by the eyelid 10 under the eyes of the present invention.

  In the above-described embodiment, a person wearing a general baseball cap-type heeled hat 20 winds the wearing tool 12 on the heeled hat, and the heel 10 under the eyes of the present invention is provided. Although the case of wearing is described, the hat 20 with the hook used together with the hook 10 under the eyes of the present invention is not limited to the baseball hat type, but a fishing hat, a straw hat, and a hat-type hat provided with a hook around it. Or a hat with a hook such as a so-called sun visor may be used. When it is difficult to wind the wearing tool 12 on such a hat with a hook, the user wears the hat with a hook so as to cover the wearing tool 12 after wearing the hook 10 under the eyes of the present invention. May be covered. And when it is not necessary to block the direct sunlight from above the field of view and only the reflected light from below must be blocked, the eyelid 10 under the eyes of the present invention without wearing the general hat 20 with a collar. You may make it wear only.

  Moreover, in embodiment mentioned above, in the contact zone 13 which contacts the face of the wearer M, the bending 13a (FIG. 4) according to the swelling of the nose is formed in the part which contacts the wearer's nose. Although an example is shown, when it is difficult to form such a bend, although not shown, a portion of the contact band 13 that contacts the nose of the wearer M is cut out, and the cutout is used. The contact band 13 may not be in contact with the nose.

  In the above-described embodiment, the size adjustment band 14 having the short band 14a and the long band 14b has been described. However, the size adjustment band 14 can adjust the circumferential length of the annular mounting tool 12. As long as it is not shown, it may be composed of, for example, a male removable tape and a female removable tape attached so as to extend from both ends of the contact band 13 around the head. . In this case, the circumferential length of the wearing tool 12 can be adjusted by changing and adjusting the position of engagement between the male removable tape and the female removable tape in the longitudinal direction.

  In addition, as shown in FIG. 5, the size adjustment band may be a band-shaped rubber string 24 that is an elastic body provided so as to connect both side ends of the contact band 13. Specifically, one end of the rubber cord 24 is attached to one end of the contact band 13, and the other end of the rubber cord 23 is attached to the other end of the contact band 13. Therefore, the annular mounting tool 12 composed of the rubber cord 24 that is a size adjustment band and the contact band 13 is configured such that the circumferential length thereof can be changed by the belt-shaped rubber string 24 that is an elastic body. Then, as shown in FIG. 6, the elastic band-like elastic band 24 has both ends of the contact band 13 between the eyes and the cheeks of the wearer M or in contact with the cheeks. Since it is pulled in the temporal direction, the contact band 13 is maintained between the eye and cheek of the wearer M or in contact with the cheek. Therefore, when the size adjustment band is made of a band-shaped rubber string 24 that is an elastic body, the circumferential length of the annular mounting tool 12 can be changed relatively easily. Can be fixed in a state of protruding forward from the lower side of the eye of the wearer M.

  Further, in the above-described embodiment, the ridge 11 is formed in a mountain shape in which the center in the width direction swells upward to avoid a situation in which the ridge 11 contacts the nose column of the wearer M. As long as the situation where the heel 11 contacts the nose column in the wearer M can be avoided, the heel 11 may be flat as shown in FIGS. In this way, when the heel 11 is flat, it is preferable to form the concave portion 11 a that avoids contact with the nose column in the wearer M on the base end side facing the nose of the heel 11.

  Further, in the above-described embodiment, the case where the contact band 13 is formed of the same cloth as the heel 11 in which the thin core material is coated with the cloth is illustrated, but the contact band 13 is illustrated. A cloth different from the cloth used for the ridge 11 may be used, and the ridge 11 and the contact band 13 may be a so-called plastic made of a resin molded product not covered with the cloth.

  Further, in the above-described embodiment, the wearing tool 12 has been illustrated as having an annular shape by the contact band 13 and the size adjustment band 14, but as long as the heel 11 can be fixed to the wearer M, It is not necessary to form a ring. For example, as shown in FIGS. 7 and 8, the wearing tool 22 extends from both sides of the base end portion facing the face of the wearer M of the heel 11 to the temporal region of the wearer M together with the heel 11. The hook-shaped thing which comprised U-shape and was comprised so that a wearer's ear | hook could be latched may be sufficient. In the case of the eyelid 10 under the eyes having such an attachment portion 22, the hook 11 is attached to the ear by applying the tip of the hook-like attachment tool 22 to the ear in the same manner as the operation of attaching general spectacles. It can fix in the state made to protrude between the wearer's M eyes and cheeks, or from the cheeks toward the front.

  As shown in FIGS. 7 and 8, the eyelid 10 under the eye having the hook-shaped attachment 22 is a so-called plastic one in which the attachment 22 and the flange 11 are integrally formed by resin molding. Is preferred. That is, the mounting tool 22 and the heel 11 are made of plastic, and the heel 11 formed in a crescent or half-moon shape is preferably provided with its proximal end connected to the mounting tool 22. Even in such an underarm 10, the hook 11 fixed with the hook-shaped mounting tool 22 protruding forward from the lower side of the eye of the wearer M is reflected by rebounding from the sea surface or the road surface. Dazzle can be reduced by blocking sunlight and preventing the light from shining directly on the eyes of the wearer M.

  In the above-described embodiment, the contact band 13 and the size adjustment band 14 have been described by exemplifying specific numerical values. However, as long as the mounting tool 12 having them can be mounted on the head, the contact band 13 The band 13 and the size adjustment band 14 are not limited to the numerical values exemplified in this specification, and may be the wearing tool 12 having the contact band 13 and the size adjustment band 14 that deviate from the numerical values.

  In the above-described embodiment, the crescent shape or the half moon shape is used for the explanation. However, as long as the reflected light can be blocked by the ridge 11, the outer shape of the ridge 11 is not limited to the crescent shape or the half moon shape. It may be a square shape or other shapes.

  Furthermore, the bag 10 under the eyes of the present invention can be changed as appropriate without departing from the spirit of the invention. For example, various decorations and colorings are applied to the outer surface of the wearing tool 12 and the upper surface or lower surface of the bag 11 to stimulate consumers' willingness to purchase, or information (characters and designs) for advertising is printed / embroidered.
