Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION The present invention relates to a hat, and more particularly, to a hat having a unique treatment for the chinstrap of various hats.

As is well known, many hats have chinstraps attached to them. Conventionally, these chinstraps are fixedly attached to the hat body. This is probably because the chinstrap is quite important in terms of practical function.
However, it is not necessarily the case that a chinstrap is required at all times. Depending on the date, time, location, etc., the chinstrap may be temporarily unnecessary. In such cases, if the chinstrap is fixedly attached to the hat body, the chinstrap cannot be removed and stored, which may impair the external design. There is a time.

Therefore, several techniques have been proposed for storing the chinstrap in some part of the hat body when it is not needed. For example, a technique has been proposed in which a string is stored along the inner periphery of a hat. However, with this technology, it is not as easy to insert and remove the string as expected.
Also, I feel strange when I wear a hat.

The present invention was developed in view of these points, and its gist is that a pocket is formed on at least one of the sides of the hat body, either inside or outside;
A fastening means such as a hook or a hook-and-loop fastener that engages with a fastening means such as a hook or hook-and-loop fastener provided at the end of the chin strap is installed inside the pocket,
A lead-out hole is formed in the lower part of this pocket so that the other end of the chinstrap stored inside the pocket can be led out from the bottom of the pocket, and the other end of the chinstrap that has been led out from the pocket can be led out from the bottom of the hat body. It is a hat that is characterized by engaging the sides, and its purpose is to make it easy to attach and detach the chinstrap from the hat body, and to store the chinstrap after removing it from the hat body. To provide a hat that does not give a strange feeling when worn and can be used to enhance the design of the hat without impairing the design of the hat as a whole.

Next, embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings.

1 in the figure indicates the hat body. Although this example shows a hat such as a baseball cap, it can also be applied to various other hats. One side 2 of the hat body 1
Small pockets 3 and 4 are formed on the side a and the other side 2b, respectively. About one pocket 3
To explain in detail with reference to FIG. 6, one pocket 3 has an open top 5 and a cover 6 that covers the opening is attached. And this cover 6
By opening it, a chinstrap 8 can be accommodated inside the interior 7. Furthermore, a fastening means 10 such as a hook or a hook and loop fastener that can be engaged with a fastening means 9 such as a hook or hook and loop fastener on one end of the chinstrap 8 is attached to the inside of the pocket 3. Furthermore, after fixing the fastening means 9 at the end of the chinstrap 8 to the fastening means 10 inside, the chinstrap is attached to the bottom of the pocket 3 in order to lead out the other end of the chinstrap 8 from the pocket 3. A lead-out hole 11 is formed that is large enough to pass through. In the illustrated example, the pocket 3 is shown as having a small, approximately rectangular shape, but the entire pocket may be designed in the shape of an animal, plant, or person. Next, about the other pocket 4,
This will be explained with reference to FIGS. This pocket 4
The upper part 12 is closed and the lower part 13 is open, and a fastening means 15 that can engage with a fastening means 14 such as a hook or hook-and-loop fastener on the other end of the chinstrap 8 is attached inside. This is what has been done.

An example of how to use this will be explained based on such a configuration.

When using chinstrap 8, use one pocket 3
The fastening means 9 at the end of the chinstrap 8 is engaged with the fastening means 10 inside, and the other end of the chinstrap 8 is taken out from the lead-out hole 11. Then, the other end is passed into the other pocket 4 from the lower part 13, and the fastening means 14 at the other end is engaged with the fastening means 15 inside. In this case, the length of the chinstrap 8 can be adjusted by selecting a plurality of fastening means 10 arranged above and below in one pocket 3, or by selecting a plurality of fastening means 10 arranged above and below in the other pocket 4. Adjustment is made by selecting the attachment means 15.

If the chinstrap 8 is stretched from side to side in this manner, it functions as a hat with a chinstrap as usual. In this case, the fastening means 9 and 14 at the end of the chinstrap 8 and the fastening means 10 and 1 on the hat main body 1 that engage with them.
5 cannot be seen from the outside at all. Therefore, no external discomfort occurs.

Next, if chinstrap 8 is not needed, chinstrap 8
is removed from the hat body, rolled up, and stored in one pocket 3. In this case, there is a pocket cover 6 on the upper part of one pocket 3, and only a lead-out hole 11 for the chinstrap 8 is formed in the lower part, so that the pocket does not accidentally fall out. In addition, since the pocket 3 is attached to the side surface of the hat body 1 and is stored rolled up in the pocket, the hat does not feel strange when worn.

In the above-described embodiment, pockets were formed on both sides of the hat body 1, and the pockets were formed on the outer surface of the side surfaces, but the pockets may be formed on only one side. Alternatively, the pocket may be formed on the inner surface of the side surface. When a pocket is formed on one side, the other end of the chinstrap is engaged with a hook or a hook-and-loop fastener, etc. attached to the other side where no pocket is formed.

As described in detail above, this invention forms a pocket on either the inside or outside of at least one side of the hat body, and inside this pocket there is a hook or hook-and-loop fastener, etc. provided at the end of the chinstrap. A fastening means such as a hook or a hook-and-loop fastener that engages with the fastening means is attached, and a lead-out hole is provided at the bottom of the pocket so that the other end of the chinstrap stored inside the pocket can be led out from the bottom of the pocket. This hat is characterized in that the other end of the chinstrap led out from the pocket is engaged with the other side of the hat body, so when attaching the chinstrap to the hat body or removing the chinstrap from the hat body. When it comes to removing it, it is easy to put on and take off, and even when it is stored in the pocket of the hat itself, it does not feel strange when worn, and it does not spoil the design of the hat as a whole. This allows for various practical advantages, such as the possibility of applying various external designs using the pockets and increasing the design quality.
