Description

The present invention relates to a method for manufacturing a hat having a placket on the inner surface side of the front part of the crown.

In a hat with a hemispherical crown that covers the wearer's head and a front brim that projects forward from the lower edge of the front of the crown, a "placket" is located along the inner surface of the front of the crown. (For example, see "Placket member 5" in FIG. 1 of Patent Document 1) may be provided. In particular, many baseball caps and the like are provided with a placket. This placket reinforces the front part of the crown from the inner surface side to prevent the front part of the crown from losing its shape and to prevent the mark (emblem) on the front part of the crown from falling backward when wearing a hat. It is intended to be. Previously, the placket was often formed of a synthetic resin sheet such as celluloid, but in recent years, it is often formed of a mesh fabric woven from synthetic resin fibers.

A hat with a placket
[1] The triangular dough that forms the crown (sometimes called "renge" because its shape resembles lotus petals) is joined by suturing to form a hemispherical shape.
[2] The lower edge of the placket and the base end edge (trailing edge) of the anterior collar are sutured on the lower edge of the anterior portion of the hemispherically formed crown.
It is manufactured through the process.

However, when performing the above step [2], it is necessary to hang the sewing machine while turning the crown while holding at least three members of the crown, the placket, and the front collar by hand so as not to be displaced from each other. be. Therefore, the process of the above [2] has a high degree of difficulty, and a technique is required for the operator. A member called "bottle leather" is sewn in a ring shape along the lower edge of the crown, but with a hat equipped with this bottle leather, the difficulty of the above step [2] is even higher. Become.

The present invention has been made to solve the above problems, and an object of the present invention is to easily manufacture a hat with a placket.

The above issues are
A hemispherical crown that covers the wearer's head,
The front brim, which protrudes forward from the lower edge of the front of the crown,
A method of manufacturing a hat that is provided along the inner surface of the front part of the crown and has a placket that reinforces the front part of the crown.
After performing the placket positioning process to sew the placket to the crown so that the placket does not shift with respect to the crown
It is solved by providing a method for manufacturing a hat, which comprises performing a front collar sewing step of sewing a front collar to a crown.

Here, the "placket positioning process" refers to a process of sewing the placket to the crown so that the placket does not shift in position with respect to the crown, and all the sewing of the placket to the crown is this placket positioning process. It does not mean that it is completed with. In other words, the statement "after performing the placket positioning process ... performing the front brim sewing process" means that all the placket stitching to the crown is completed when the front brim sewing process is started. Doesn't mean. In another step (front collar sewing step, etc.) performed after the placket positioning step, the placket and the crown may have a portion sewn to each other.

In this way, the placket is sewn so that the position of the placket does not shift with respect to the crown, and then the front collar is sewn to the crown. Can reduce the number of members that must be held by hand. Therefore, even a hat with a placket can be easily manufactured.

By the way, in a general hat with a placket, only the lower edge of the placket is sewn to the crown, and the placket positioning step is performed as in the manufacturing method of the present invention. When the front brim sewing process is performed later, if the "lower edge" of the placket is sewn to the crown in the placket positioning process, the placket is attached to the lower edge of the crown when the front brim sewing process is completed. The seams in the positioning process and the seams in the front collar sewing process are doubly formed. If the spacing between these two seams varies from place to place (the two seams are non-parallel), the hat may look unattractive. However, it is not always easy to make two seams formed at different timings parallel to each other or to overlap and completely match them.

Therefore, in the manufacturing method of the present invention, it is preferable that the placket is sewn in the placket positioning step at a position other than the lower edge of the placket (the lower edge of the front part of the crown). Specifically, it is preferable to sew the placket in the placket positioning step by sewing the left and right side edges of the placket to the crown. This prevents the formation of two seams on the lower edge of the crown and improves the appearance of the hat.

In addition, if the left and right side edges of the placket are sewn to the crown, the following effects can be achieved. That is, in a general hat with a placket, the placket is sewn to the crown only at the "lower edge", so by pulling out the upper edge of the placket downward, the placket is lowered from the lower edge of the crown. Can be in a state of being. However, when the placket is lowered, the placket has an unfavorable habit, so it is preferable not to lower the placket. However, children and the like may find it interesting that the placket that has been lowered looks like sunglasses, and may wear a hat with the placket lowered. In this regard, by sewing the left and right side edges of the placket to the crown, the placket cannot be pulled out downward.

In the manufacturing method of the present invention,
Before performing the front brim sewing process,
The process of forming the first part of the crown to obtain the first part of the crown by joining multiple pieces of fabric that make up the front part of the crown,
A crown second part forming step of obtaining a crown second part by connecting a plurality of fabrics constituting the crown side portion and the crown rear part, and
The entire crown forming step of suturing the first part of the crown and the second part of the crown to form a hemispherical crown is performed.
When the placket is sewn in the placket positioning process and the crown first part and the crown second part are sewn in the crown whole formation process, the side edges of the placket are also sewn in the sewn part between the crown first part and the crown second part. It is also preferable to carry out by suturing to.

The stitching between the first part of the crown and the second part of the crown is usually performed by a bag stitch, and the seam is hidden inside the crown (a state that does not appear on the outside of the crown). Therefore, if the placket is also sewn at this bag stitch portion, the seam of the stitched portion between the crown and the placket can be prevented from appearing on the outside of the crown, and the appearance of the hat can be further improved. Further, since the placket positioning step and the entire crown step can be performed at the same time, it is possible to reduce the number of steps and reduce the manufacturing cost of the hat.

In the manufacturing method of the present invention, it is preferable that the bottle leather provided in an annular shape along the lower edge of the crown is also sewn to the crown when the front collar sewing step is performed. As already mentioned, a hat with a bottle leather tends to be difficult to sew, but in the manufacturing method of the present invention, when the bottle leather is sewn to the crown, the placket is already sewn to the crown. There is. Therefore, it is possible to significantly reduce the troublesomeness when sewing the bottle skin to the crown.

In the manufacturing method of the present invention, it is also preferable to perform a marking step of embroidering the front part of the crown and marking the crown after performing the placket positioning step, and to penetrate the embroidery in the marking step to the placket. This makes it possible to secure the placket to the crown even more firmly. It also simplifies the manufacture of marked hats with placket.

That is, since the marking process is performed in a process different from the sewing process, the conventional hat with a placket is used.
[1] The first part of the crown (front part of the crown) is made in the sewing process.
[2] The first part of the crown is sent to the marking process.
[3] Mark the first part of the crown.
[4] The first part of the crown that has been marked is sent back to the sewing process.
[5] Other members (crown second part, placket, bottle leather, etc.) are sewn to the crown first part.
The process was complicated because the mark was added according to the procedure. In this respect, if the above configuration is adopted, it becomes possible to put a mark after finishing all the sewing of the hat in the sewing process.

In the manufacturing method of the present invention, a notch is provided in the center of the lower edge of the front part of the crown, and the placket made of mesh fabric is exposed from the notch to the outside of the crown (the placket also overlaps with the notch). It exists.) It is preferable to set it. This makes it possible to ventilate the crown by introducing air into the inside of the clan from the center of the lower edge of the front part of the crown and discharging the air inside the crown. At this time, if there is a notch in the center of the lower edge of the front part of the crown, the lower edge of the front part of the crown and the lower edge of the placket overlap only partially. Therefore, in the conventional method of sewing the placket to the crown only by the lower edge of the placket, it is more difficult to sew the placket to the crown. Even in some cases, the placket can be easily sewn onto the crown.

As described above, it is an object of the present invention to easily manufacture a hat with a placket.

It is a bottom view which showed the state which looked at the bottle skin in the hat which concerns on this invention from below.

A preferred embodiment of the method for manufacturing a hat of the present invention will be described more specifically with reference to the drawings. First, a hat manufactured by the method for manufacturing a hat of the present invention (hat according to the present invention) will be described. FIG. 1 is a perspective view showing a state in which the hat according to the present invention is viewed from the front. FIG. 2 is a perspective view showing a state in which the hat according to the present invention is viewed from the rear. As shown in FIGS. 1 and 2, the hat according to the present invention includes a crown 10 and a front collar 20. The crown 10 is for covering the wearer's head. The front collar 20 is a part (a part that exerts a function as an eaves) to prevent sunlight from entering the eyes of the wearer of the hat.

FIG. 3 is a bottom view showing a state in which the hat according to the present invention is viewed from below. In the hat of the present embodiment, as shown in FIG. 3, a placket 30 and a bottle leather 40 are also provided inside the crown 10. The placket 30 reinforces the front side portion of the crown 10 (crown front portions 11 and 12 described later) from the inside to prevent the crown front portions 11 and 12 from losing their shape, and is represented by the crown front portions 11 and 12. In order to prevent the mark 70 (emblem) from falling backward, it is a planar core material for shape retention that is addressed to the inside of the front portions 11 and 12 of the crown. The bottle skin 40 is a portion for absorbing sweat from the wearer's head.

Further, in the hat of the present embodiment, as shown in FIGS. 2 and 3, a notch portion 10a (rear side) is located along the lower edge of the rear portion of the crown 10 (crown rear portions 15 and 16 described later). A notch) is provided, and a size adjusting belt 50 is attached to the rear notch 10a. Therefore, it is possible to adjust the peripheral length of the lower edge portion of the crown 10 according to the head circumference of the wearer of the hat.

Hereinafter, each member constituting the hat of the present invention will be described in detail.

1. 1. Crown The crown 10 has a hemispherical shape as shown in FIG. The crown 10 is usually formed by joining a plurality of fabrics together. Also in the hat of the present embodiment, the fabric forming the crown left front portion 11, the fabric forming the crown right front portion 12, the fabric forming the crown left lateral portion 13, and the fabric forming the crown right lateral portion 14 The crown 10 is formed by connecting a total of six fabrics (renge) of the fabric forming the left rear portion 15 of the crown and the fabric forming the right rear portion 16 of the crown. In the following, the crown left front portion 11 and the crown right front portion 12 are referred to as “crown front portion 11, 12”, and the crown left lateral portion 13 and the crown right lateral portion 14 are referred to as “crown lateral portion 13, 14”. The left rear part of the crown 15 and the right rear part 16 of the crown may be referred to as "crown rear part 15, 16".

The joining of a plurality of fabrics (renge) constituting the crown 10 is usually performed by stitching. However, there are cases where the dough (renge) is joined by seamless processing (for example, processing in which heat is generated by rubbing the dough with each other by vibration due to ultrasonic waves, and the dough is melted and welded to each other). Seamless processing can prevent seams from forming on the crown 10 and further improve the appearance of the hat.

Further, in the hat of the present embodiment, as already described, the rear side notches 10a are provided in the crown rear portions 15 and 16, and as shown in FIGS. 2 and 3, above the rear side notches 10a. The ventilation mesh fabric 60 is applied from the inside of the crown 10 so as to border the edges. The ventilation mesh fabric 60 has an exposed portion 61 that does not overlap the crown 10 and is exposed from the rear notch 10a, and an unexposed portion 62 that overlaps the crown 10 and is not exposed from the rear notch 10a (FIG. 2). The unexposed portion 62 is indicated by diagonal hatching).

As shown in FIG. 2, the ventilation mesh fabric 60 has an arch shape (arc shape). The ventilation mesh fabric 60 is sewn to the crown 10 at the locations α (FIG. 3) along the lower edges on the left and right sides thereof, but is sewn to other locations (ventilation mesh fabric described later). At the central portion β (excluding FIG. 3) of 60, the crown 10 is not sewn and is in a staggered state.

FIG. 4 is an enlarged cross-sectional view showing a state in which the rear crown portions 15 and 16 of the hat according to the present invention are cut in a plane perpendicular to the left-right direction. In the hat of the present embodiment, as described above, the ventilation mesh fabric 60 is provided and the mesh fabric 60 is swayed, so that the vicinity of the rear notch 10a is shown as shown by _{the arrow γ 1 in FIG.} the air a ₁ in the air a _1, not only captures the inside of the crown 10 through the ventilation mesh fabric 60, as indicated by an arrow gamma ₂ in the figure, in the vicinity of the rear notch 10a in crown It can be taken into the inside of the crown 10 through the gap between the 10 and the ventilation mesh fabric 60. On the contrary, the air inside the crown 10 can be discharged to the outside of the crown 10 from the vicinity of the rear notch 10a. Therefore, ventilation can be performed at the rear portion of the crown 10.

However, if only the lower edges on the left and right sides of the ventilation mesh fabric 60 are sewn to the crown 10, the entire central portion of the ventilation mesh fabric 60 will be in a state of floating from the crown 10. There is a possibility that the portion that should be the non-exposed portion 62 is displaced downward and is exposed from the rear notch portion 10a. In such a state, not only the appearance of the hat is deteriorated, but also there is a possibility that the desired ventilation cannot be performed on the rear portion of the crown 10.

Therefore, in the hat of the present embodiment, the ventilation mesh fabric 60 is spot-sewn to the crown 10 even at the portion β (FIG. 3) near the center of the ventilation mesh fabric 60. As a result, the ventilation mesh fabric 60 with respect to the crown 10 is prevented from being displaced from the rear notch 10a without obstructing the air flow _{of the arrow γ 2 in FIG.} It is possible to position the central part of the.

In the example shown in FIG. 3, the portion β where the ventilation mesh fabric 60 and the crown 10 are sewn in a spot manner is located near the center of the region along the upper edge of the rear notch portion 10a in the crown 10 in the left-right direction. Although it is provided at only one place, it may be provided at a plurality of places in the area along the upper edge. However, if too many points β to be sewn in spots are provided, _{the air flow of the arrow γ 2 in} FIG. 4 is less likely to occur, and the ventilation effect in the rear portion of the crown 10 may be limited. .. Therefore, it is preferable to limit the number of spots β to be sewn to about 5 to 7 at most.

The sewing at the portion β of the ventilation mesh fabric 60 may be a straight stitch such as a wave stitch or a reverse stitch. However, in addition to being spot-like, the sewing at the location β is a mesh fabric (mesh fabric 60 for ventilation) as one of the fabrics to be sewn, so that the seams may be unraveled by straight stitching. There is. Therefore, in the hat of the present embodiment, the sewing at the portion β is performed by the bartack.

_{By the way, if the width W 1} (FIG. 4) of the exposed portion 61 in the ventilation mesh fabric 60 _{is too narrow, the air flow of the arrow γ 2 in} FIG. 4 is less likely to occur. _{Therefore, it is preferable to secure a width W 1} of the exposed portion 61 _{(if the width W 1} differs depending on the location, the minimum value thereof; hereinafter, the _{same applies to the lower limit value of the width W 1} ) of 5 mm or more, and 10 mm or more. It is more preferable to secure it. However, excessively increasing the width W ₁ of the exposed portion 61, when the short setting the sizing belt 50, such as wrinkles noticeable on the exposed portion 61 is easily formed, there is a possibility that appearance of the hat is deteriorated. Therefore, the width W _{1 of the exposed portion 61 (when the width W 1} differs depending on the location, the maximum value thereof; hereinafter the _{same at the upper limit value of the width W 1} ) is preferably suppressed to 50 mm or less, preferably 30 mm or less. It is more preferable to suppress it to.

_{Further, even if the width W 2} (FIG. 4) of the unexposed portion 62 in the ventilation mesh fabric 60 _{is too narrow, the air flow of the arrow γ 2 in} FIG. 4 is less likely to occur. In addition, the upper edge of the ventilation mesh fabric 60 is easily exposed from the rear notch 10a. _{Therefore, it is preferable to secure a width W 2} of the exposed portion 61 _{(if the width W 2} differs depending on the location, the minimum value thereof; hereinafter, the _{same applies to the lower limit value of the width W 2} ) of 5 mm or more, and 10 mm or more. It is more preferable to secure it. However, if the width W ₂ of the non-exposed portion 62 is made too wide, the area of the non-exposed portion 62 becomes too wide, and it becomes difficult to neatly align the non-exposed portion 62 with the inner surface of the crown 10. _{Therefore, the width W 2} of the non-exposed portion 62 _{(if the width W 2} differs depending on the location, the maximum value thereof; hereinafter the _{same at the upper limit value of the width W 2} ) is preferably suppressed to 50 mm or less, preferably 30 mm. It is more preferable to suppress it to the following.

Further, in the hat of the present embodiment, as shown in FIG. 5, a notch portion 10b (front side notch portion) is also provided in the central portion of the lower edge of the crown front portions 11 and 12. FIG. 5 is an enlarged perspective view of the periphery of the central portion of the lower edges of the crown front portions 11 and 12 in the hat according to the present invention. As shown in FIG. 6, the placket 30 is located inside the crown front portions 11 and 12, and the mesh fabric arranged on the back side (inside) of the crown front portions 11 and 12 from the front notch 10b. The lower part of the placket 30 made of the placket 30 is exposed. FIG. 6 is an end view showing a state in which the crown front portions 11, 12 and the front collar 20 of the hat according to the present invention are cut in a plane perpendicular to the left-right direction.

As described above, by providing the front notch 10b on the front portions 11 and 12 _{, the air A 2} and A ₃ in front of the crown 10 _{are provided as shown by the arrows γ 3} and γ _{4 in FIG.} It can be taken into the inside of the crown 10 through the front notch 10b. On the contrary, the air inside the crown 10 can be discharged to the outside of the crown 10 from the front notch 10b. Therefore, ventilation can be performed on the front side portion of the crown 10.

The place where the front notch 10b is provided is not particularly limited as long as the crown fronts 11 and 12 are provided. However, it is not preferable to provide the front notch 10b in a conspicuous place. Therefore, in the hat of the present embodiment, the front notch portion 10b is provided at a portion along the lower edge of the crown 10 (near the boundary portion with the front collar 20) in the crown front portions 11 and 12. This makes it possible to make the front notch 10b inconspicuous and improve the appearance of the hat. In addition, the degree of freedom in hat design can be increased by displaying an emblem in the central portion of the front portions 11 and 12 of the crown.

Further, the air taken in from the front notch 10b to the inside of the crown 10 flows along the surface of the wearer's head, but it is difficult to go below the front notch 10b. In this regard, by setting the place where the front notch 10b is provided as a place (low position) along the lower edge of the crown 10, the air taken into the inside of the crown 10 from the front notch 10b is taken into the crown 10. It is also possible to spread over a wide area inside the. In the hat of the present embodiment, the front notch 10b is provided at only one place, but it may be divided into a plurality of places and provided.

The width W ₃ (FIG. 5) of the front notch 10b is secured to a certain extent. If the width W ₃ of the front notch portion 10b is too narrow, because ventilation of the front portion of the crown 10 is not easily carried out efficiently. _{The width W 3} of the front notch 10b _{(the maximum value when the width W 3} differs depending on the vertical position; the same applies hereinafter) is preferably 50 mm or more, and more preferably 100 mm or more. However, if the width W ₃ of the front notch 10b too wide, there is a risk that the inlet 10 air intake is conspicuous. Therefore, the width W ₃ of the front notch 10b is preferably 200 mm or less, and more preferably 150 mm or less.

Further, the vertical width W ₄ (FIG. 5) of the front notch 10b is also secured to a certain extent. _{This is because if the vertical width W 4} of the front cutout portion 10b is too narrow, it becomes difficult to efficiently ventilate the crown 10. _{The vertical width W 4} of the front notch 10b _{(the maximum value when the vertical width W 4} differs depending on the left and right positions; the same applies hereinafter) is preferably 3 mm or more, and more preferably 5 mm or more. However, if the vertical width W ₄ of the front cutout portion 10b is made too wide, the air intake port 10 may become conspicuous. Therefore, the vertical width W ₄ of the front notch 10b is preferably 50 mm or less, and more preferably 30 mm or less.

2. 2. Front collar The front collar 20 is provided so as to project forward from the lower edges of the crown front portions 11 and 12. In the hat of the present embodiment, as shown in FIG. 6, the front collar 20 is retained by the shape-retaining core 21 that retains the shape of the front collar 20, and the upper fabrics 22a and 22b that cover the upper side of the shape-retaining core 21. It is composed of a lower fabric 23 that covers the lower side of the shape core 21. The shape-retaining core 21 is formed of a material having a certain thickness and hardness, such as resin, elastomer, and cardboard. Further, the upper fabric 22a is a thin mesh fabric, and the upper fabric 22b is a thick mesh fabric. Further, the lower fabric 23 is a thin mesh fabric.

As described above, the hat of the present embodiment ventilates the crown 10 through the front notches 10b provided in the crown front portions 11 and 12. However, only providing the front-side notch portion 10b, even if it is possible to incorporate air A ₂ in the upper surface side of the front flange 20 _(FIG. 6) from the front notch 10b on the inner side of the crown 10, the lower surface of the front flange 20 can not be incorporated air a ₃ on the side _(FIG. 6) from the front notch 10b on the inner side of the crown 10. Therefore, the ventilation effect obtained by the front notch 10b is limited.

Therefore, in the hat of the present embodiment, the air permeating portion 20a is provided at the portion near the base end (the end edge on the side connected to the lower edge of the crown 10) of the front collar 20. By this and the air transmitting portion 20a is provided, the air A ₂ of lower surface side of the front flange 20 is moved on the upper surface side of the front flange 20 passes through the air transmission portion 20a, an inner crown 10 from the front notch 10b Will be incorporated into. Therefore, it is possible to more effectively ventilate the front portion of the crown 10.

The arrangement of the air permeating portion 20a is not particularly limited as long as it is provided near the base end of the front flange 20. In the hat of the present embodiment, the air permeating portion 20a is provided so as to reach the base end edge of the front collar 20. Specifically, a notch is provided at the center of the base end edge of the shape-retaining core 21 (FIG. 6) of the front flange 20, so that the notch functions as an air permeation portion 20a.

Thus, the air permeation portion 20a provided in a form that is continuous with the front notch 10b, (air A ₃ that was on the lower surface side of the front flange ₂₀₎ of the air permeation portion 20a air having passed through the upper from the lower side of the front notch It is efficiently incorporated into the portion 10b. In addition, the base end edge of the shape-retaining core 21 is less likely to hit the forehead of the wearer of the hat, so that the hat is comfortable to wear. In the hat of the present embodiment, the air permeation portion 20a is provided at only one place, but it can be divided into a plurality of places and provided.

The form of the air permeating portion 20a is not particularly limited. In the hat of the present embodiment, as shown in FIG. 5, the air permeating portion 20a is provided in a semicircular shape. In other words, the shape-retaining core 21 of the front collar 20 is formed in a U shape, and the semicircularly recessed portion of the shape-retaining core 21 is formed as the air permeable portion 20a. Therefore, it is possible to form the shape-retaining core 21 in a simple and highly stable form while ensuring a wide air permeation portion 20a.

Ago to air A ₃ on the lower surface of the flange _{20 (FIG.} 6) to facilitate passage of air permeation unit 20a, the area of the air transmission unit 20a, it is preferable to some extent. Specifically, the area of the air permeating portion 20a (when the air permeating portion 20a is divided into a plurality of places, the total area of the air permeating portions 20a; the same applies hereinafter) is 10 cm ² or more. It is preferably 15 cm ² or more, and more preferably 15 cm 2 or more. However, if the area of the air permeating portion 20a is made too large, it may be difficult to maintain the shape of the front collar 20. Therefore, it is not good that the area of the air permeating portion 20a is too large. The area of the air permeating portion 20a ^{is preferably 50 cm 2} or less, and ^{more preferably 30 cm 2} or less.

_{The width W 5} (FIG. 3) of the air permeating portion 20a is secured to a certain extent. When narrow width W ₅ of the air transmissive portion 20a, it is because it is difficult to secure the flow rate of air passing through the air permeable portion 20a. _{The width W 5} of the air permeating portion 20a _{(the maximum value when the vertical width W 5} differs depending on the front-rear position; the same applies hereinafter) is preferably 50 mm or more, and more preferably 100 mm or more. _{However, if the width W 5} of the air permeating portion 20a is made too wide, it becomes difficult to firmly fix the front collar 20 to the crown 10 (it becomes difficult to stabilize the direction of the front collar 20), and the front collar 20 tends to hang down. Become. Therefore, the width W ₅ of the air permeating portion 20a is preferably 170 mm or less, and more preferably 150 mm or less.

_{The vertical width W 6} (FIG. 3) of the air permeating portion 20a is also secured to a certain extent. When the vertical width W ₆ of the air transmitting portion 20a is small, before because the air A ₃ on the lower surface of the flange 20 _(FIG. 6) is less likely transmitted to the upper surface side of the front flange 10 through the air permeable portion 20a. _{The width W 5} of the air permeating portion 20a is preferably 10 mm or more, and more preferably 30 mm or more. However, if the vertical width W ₆ of the air permeating portion 20a is made too wide, the air permeating portion 20a extends close to the tip edge (front end edge) of the front flange 20, making it difficult to maintain the strength of the front flange 20. There is also a risk of becoming. The vertical width W ₆ of the air permeating portion 20a is preferably 100 mm or less, and more preferably 50 mm or less.

As described above, in the hat of the present embodiment, the air permeation portion 20a is provided in the form of an opening (or a notch portion) provided in the shape-retaining core 21 of the front collar 20. The air permeating portion 20a may be left open, but in this case, sunlight easily enters the eyes of the hat wearer through the air permeating portion 20a, and the front collar 20 is less likely to function as an eave. .. In addition, the air permeating portion 20a becomes conspicuous, and the appearance of the hat may be deteriorated.

Therefore, in the hat of the present embodiment, as shown in FIG. 5, the air permeable portion 20a is covered with a mesh cloth. Specifically, as shown in FIG. 6, when the front collar 20 is formed of the shape-retaining core 21, and the upper fabrics 22a and 22b and the lower fabric 23 of the front collar 20 are formed of mesh fabric, the shape-retaining core 21 is formed. The upper fabrics 22a and 22b and the lower fabric 23 are extended in the cutout portion (the portion serving as the air permeating portion 20a). This makes it possible to make the hat provided with the air permeating portion 20a look stylish.

3. 3. The placket 30 is formed of a mesh fabric having shape-retaining properties. The edge of the placket 30 is trimmed to prevent unraveling. In a general hat with a placket, the placket 30 has the entire lower edge sewn to the crown 10, whereas in the hat of the present embodiment, the placket 30 is anterior to the center of the lower edges of the crown fronts 11 and 12. Since the notch 10b is provided, the lower edge of the placket 30 cannot be sewn to the crown 10 in the section where the front notch 10b exists. Therefore, in the hat of the present embodiment, the lower edge of the placket 30 is sewn to the crown 10 at both left and right ends (section δ in FIG. 1), but the section between them (front notch 10b). Is not sewn to the crown 10, but is sewn to the base end edge (rear end edge) of the front collar 20.

In addition, in a general hat with a placket, the edges (left and right side edges and upper side edges) other than the lower edge of the placket 30 are not sewn to the crown 10 and are in a swayed state. It has become. On the other hand, in the hat of the present embodiment, as will be described later, the left and right side edges of the placket 30 are also sewn to the crown 10. Specifically, the left side edge of the placket 30 is sewn along the boundary between the crown left front portion 11 and the crown left lateral portion 13, and the right side edge of the placket 30 is sewn with the crown right front portion 12. It is sewn along the boundary with the right lateral portion 14 of the crown. In this way, by firmly fixing the placket 30 to the crown 10, the crown front portions 11 and 12 are firmly reinforced from the inside by the placket 30, and the crown front portions 11 and 12 are more reliably prevented from losing their shape. It is possible to do.

The shape of the placket 30 is appropriately determined according to the shape of the crown 10 and the like. In the hat of the present embodiment, the placket 30 having a shape in which the central portion of the upper edge is raised in an arc shape is curved along the lower edges of the crown front portions 11 and 12 so as to follow the shape of the crown 10. .. As shown in FIG. 3, when the inside of the crown 10 is viewed from below, the placket 30 looks like a U-shape or a V-shape. In addition, the placket 30 can also be formed in a triangular shape following the fabric (renge) forming the crown front portions 11 and 12.

The height of the placket 30 at the front portions 11 and 12 of the crown is not particularly limited. However, if the placket 30 is low, the placket 30 cannot firmly reinforce the crown front portions 11 and 12. In addition, in the hat of the present invention, the placket 30 also has a function of covering the front notch 10b from the inside, but if the placket 30 is low, the entire front notch 10b cannot be covered by the placket 30. There is also a risk.

Therefore, it is preferable that the placket 30 is provided at least at a position higher than the upper end of the front notch 10b, and preferably at a position of 1/2 or more of the height of the crown front portions 11 and 12. In the hat of the present embodiment, as shown in FIG. 6, the placket 30 is provided up to the height near the bent portion in the crown front portions 11 and 12. Therefore, the entire front notch 10b is covered from the inside with the placket 30. In addition, a mark 70 (FIG. 1) is often applied to the central portion of the front portions 11 and 12 of the crown by emblem or embroidery, and the back side (inside) of the portion to which the mark 70 is applied is also a placket 30. It can be reinforced with.

4. Bottle skin As shown in FIG. 3, the bottle skin 40 is a band-shaped material provided in an annular shape along the lower edge of the crown 10 inside the crown 10. As shown in FIG. 6, the lower edge of the bottle skin 40 is sewn (fixed) along the lower edge of the crown 10. The placket 30 is provided so as to be sandwiched between the crown 10 and the bottle skin 40. The upper edge of the bottle skin 40 is not sewn to the crown 10 and is in a swayed state.

The bottle leather 40 has a function of absorbing sweat from the wearer's head. Therefore, it is preferable that the bottle skin 40 is made of a material having excellent water absorption and quick-drying property. In the hat of the present embodiment, the bottle skin 40 is formed by a woven fabric in which thick fibers are used for the inner layer (the layer on the side in contact with the wearer's head) and fine fibers are used for the outer layer. Therefore, the sweat on the wearer's head can be quickly absorbed by the bottle skin 40 by the capillary phenomenon.

5. Size adjusting belt The size adjusting belt 50 is for adjusting the circumference of the lower edge of the crown 10 according to the head circumference of the wearer of the hat. As the size adjusting belt 50, various belts used in conventional hats can be used. In the hat of the present embodiment, the size adjusting belt 50 is composed of a pair of left and right belts. One belt is provided with a plurality of convex portions at predetermined intervals, and the other belt is repeatedly provided with a plurality of concave portions (recesses that can be fitted to the convex portions) at predetermined intervals. The length of the size adjusting belt 50 can be adjusted by switching the unevenness to be fitted.

6. Method for Manufacturing a Hat Subsequently, the method for manufacturing the above-mentioned hat will be described. As described above, in a general hat with a placket, the placket 30 and the front brim 20 are sewn to the crown 10 at the same time. However, when the hat according to the present invention is manufactured, the crown 10 is sewn. After performing the placket positioning step of sewing the placket 30 to the crown 10 so that the placket 30 does not shift in position, the front collar sewing step of sewing the front collar 20 to the crown 10 is performed. ing. This makes it possible to reduce the number of members that the operator of the sewing machine must hold by hand when sewing the front collar 20 and the crown 10 in the front collar sewing process.

In the manufacturing method of the present embodiment, the crown first part forming step, the crown second part forming step, the crown whole forming step, the placket positioning step, the ventilation mesh fabric sewing step, and the front flange sewing step , The hat is manufactured through a bottle leather sewing process, a marking process, and the like. As will be described later, when the crown second partial forming step is performed, the ventilation mesh fabric sewing step is performed at the same time, and when the crown entire forming step is performed, the placket positioning step is performed at the same time and the front collar is sewn. When performing the process, the bottle skin sewing process is performed at the same time. Hereinafter, each step will be described.

7. Crown first part forming step As shown in FIG. 7, the crown first part forming step is a step of connecting two pieces of cloth (renge) constituting the crown front parts 11 and 12 to obtain a crown first part 10c. FIG. 7 is a bottom view showing a state of the crown 10 of the hat according to the present invention as viewed from below, and is a view showing a state before sewing the placket 30 and the like to the crown 10.

The ventilation mesh fabric sewing step is a step of sewing the ventilation mesh fabric 60 to the crown 10. In the present embodiment, when the crown second partial forming step is performed, the ventilation mesh fabric sewing step is also performed.

Specifically, the left lateral portion 13 of the crown and the left posterior portion 15 of the crown are sewn _{along the line segment R 3} R ₁₀ in FIG. 7, and the right lateral portion 14 of the crown and the right posterior portion 16 of the crown are sewn together. _{, Where the line segment R 3} R ₆ in FIG. 7 is performed, when these stitches are performed, the left side edge S ₁ S ₂ of the ventilation fabric 60 is attached to the crown left lateral portion 13 and the crown left. _{Sew along the line segment R 10} R ₁₁ at the rear portion 15 and attach the right side edge S ₅ S _{5 of the ventilation fabric 60 to the line segment R 6} R _{12 at the} right lateral portion 14 of the crown and the right rear portion 16 of the crown. I try to sew to the part along the line. This makes it possible to fix the ventilation fabric 60 to the crown 10 without separately performing the ventilation fabric sewing process.

It has already been described that the ventilation fabric 60 is sewn to the crown 10 even at the portion β near the center thereof (FIG. 3), but the sewing at this portion β can also be performed at this time. .. After completing the crown first part forming step and the crown second part forming step (ventilation fabric sewing step), the entire crown forming step and the placket positioning step are subsequently performed.

9. Whole crown forming step and placket positioning step The whole crown forming step is a step of suturing the crown first portion 10c and the crown second portion 10d shown in FIG. 7 to obtain a hemispherical crown 10 as shown in FIG. .. Further, the placket positioning step is a step of sewing the placket 30 to the crown 10 so that the placket 30 does not shift in position with respect to the crown 10. FIG. 8 is a bottom view showing a state in which the crown 10 of the hat according to the present invention is viewed from below, and is a view showing a state after sewing a placket 30 or the like to the crown 10. In the present embodiment, when the entire crown forming step is performed, the placket positioning step is also performed.

Specifically, in the entire crown forming step, as shown in FIG. 7, the outer edge Q ₁ Q _{7 of the crown first portion 10c is sewn to the outer edge R 1} R ₃ of the crown second portion 10d, and the crown first portion 10c is formed. The outer edge Q ₅ Q ₇ is sewn to the outer edge R ₅ R ₃ of the second crown 10d, where the left side edge P ₁ P ₈ of the placket 30 is sewn to the crown first. Part of the outer edge Q ₁ Q _{8 (outer edge R 1} R ₂ of the second part of the crown) is sewn, and the right side edge P ₅ P _{6 of the placket 30 is attached to the outer edge Q 5} Q ₆ of the first part of the crown (second part of the crown). It is sewn to the outer edge R ₅ R _{4) of.} This makes it possible to fix the placket 30 to the crown 10 in a stationary state without separately performing the placket positioning step. Therefore, the hat manufacturing process can be simplified.

In addition, _{the stitching between the outer edge Q 1} Q ₇ and the outer edge R ₁ R ₃ and the stitching between the outer edge Q ₅ Q ₇ and the outer edge R ₅ R ₃ are bag stitches (crown first part 10c and crown second part 10d turned inside out). The outer edge Q ₁ Q ₇ and the outer edge R ₁ R ₃ and the outer edge Q ₅ Q ₇ and the outer edge R ₅ R ₃ are sewn in a state of being overlapped in the state of the middle table, and then the crown first part 10c and the crown second part are sewn together. Since the portion 10d is sewn upside down again), the seam does not appear on the outside of the crown 10. Therefore, if the placket 30 is also sewn at this bag stitch portion, the seams when the crown 10 and the placket 30 are sewn can be prevented from appearing on the outside of the crown. Therefore, the appearance of the hat can be further improved.

The fabric forming the crown first portion 10c (crown front portions 11, 12) is thicker and harder than the fabric forming the crown second portion 10d (crown lateral portions 13, 14 and crown rear portions 15, 16). (Fabric with excellent shape retention) is often used, and in this case, if the fabrics 11 to 16 constituting the crown 10 are joined in an inappropriate order, the shape of the crown 10 may not be beautiful. .. In this respect, as in the present embodiment, first, the crown front portions 11 and 12 are connected to form the crown first portion 10c, and the crown lateral portions 13, 14 and the crown rear portions 15, 16 are connected to form the crown second portion. After setting 10d, the crown 10 can be finished into a beautiful hemispherical shape by connecting the crown first portion 10c and the crown second portion 10d.

After that, as shown in FIG. 8, a backing tape (bias tape) is sewn from the inside to the sutured portion in the entire crown forming step, and the entire crown forming step (placket positioning step) is completed. After completing the entire crown forming step and the placket positioning step, the front collar sewing step and the bottle leather sewing step are subsequently performed.

10. Front collar sewing step and bottle leather sewing step The front collar sewing step is a step of sewing the front collar 20 to the lower edge of the crown 10. The bottle leather sewing step is a step of sewing the bottle leather 40 to the lower edge of the crown 10. In the present embodiment, when the front collar sewing process is performed, the bottle leather sewing process is also performed.

The front collar sewing process and the bottle skin sewing process are performed on the lower edges of the crown front portions 11 and 12 in the crown 10 in the state shown in FIG. 8 (points P ₁ , P ₂ , P ₃ , P ₄ , P _{5 in the same figure).} The base end edge of the front collar 20 is overlapped on the section connecting the crowns 20), and the lower edge of the bin skin 40 as shown in FIG. This is done by sewing the substantially entire circumference of the lower edge of the crown 10 with a sewing machine or the like. FIG. 9 is a bottom view showing a state in which the bottle skin 40 of the hat according to the present invention is viewed from below.

When the front collar sewing step and the bottle leather sewing step are completed, the base end edge of the front collar 20 is the section P ₁ P ₂ (section Q ₁ Q ₂ ) and the section P ₄ P ₅ (section Q) shown in FIG. ₄ Q ₅₎ with stitched crown 10 and placket 30, in a state of being sutured placket 30 in the section _Q 2 _{Q 4.} The interval Q ₂ Q ₄ at the lower edge of the crown 10, for the front notch 10b is present, the interval Q ₂ Q ₄ at the lower edge of the crown 10, the base end edge of the front flange 20 is not sewn (Figure See 6.). After completing the front collar sewing process and the bottle leather sewing process, a marking process is subsequently performed.

11. Marking step The marking step is a step of putting a mark 70 (FIG. 1) on the front portions 11 and 12 of the crown. This makes it possible to enhance the design of the hat. The mark 70 is usually applied to the area where the placket 30 is overlapped on the inside (back side) of the front portions 11 and 12 of the crown. The mark 70 may be inserted by thermal transfer or the like, but in the present embodiment, it is inserted by embroidery. This embroidery is performed while penetrating the crown front portions 11, 12 and the placket 30. As a result, the placket 30 can be sewn to the crown front portions 11 and 12 even in the embroidered portion (the central portion of the placket 30), and the placket 30 is more firmly attached to the crown front portions 11 and 12. Can be fixed.

After finishing the marking process, the hat is completed. If necessary, the finished hat may be subjected to a finishing step such as adjusting the shape of the crown 10 with a steam press or the like.

12. Summary of Hat Manufacturing Method As described above, in the hat manufacturing method of the present embodiment, in the placket positioning step, the placket 30 is sewn so as not to be displaced with respect to the crown 10, and then before the placket is manufactured. Since the front collar 20 is sewn to the crown 10 in the collar sewing process, the operator of the sewing machine plackets when sewing the front collar 20 and the crown in the front collar sewing process. You don't have to hold 30 by hand. Therefore, even a hat provided with a placket 30 can be easily manufactured.

Further, in the method for manufacturing a hat of the present embodiment, the placket 30 and the crown 10 are sewn together in the placket positioning step by sewing the left and right side edges of the placket 30 to the crown 10. At the portion of the hat along the lower edge of the crown 10, only one seam in the front collar sewing process (bin skin sewing process) is formed. In addition, since the left and right side edges of the placket 30 are sewn to the crown 10 at the portion where the crown first portion 10c and the crown second portion 10d of the crown 10 are sewn (sewn in a bag), the left and right side edges of the placket 30 are sewn to the crown 10. The seams when sewn to the crown 10 do not appear on the outer surface of the crown 10. Therefore, the appearance of the hat can be improved. Further, by suturing the left and right side edges of the placket 30 to the crown 10, the placket 30 is firmly fixed to the crown front portions 11 and 12, and the shape retention of the crown front portions 11 and 12 is maintained well. Can be done. Furthermore, it is possible to reduce the number of steps and reduce the manufacturing cost of the hat.
