Description

Detailed Description of the Invention

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a fan which can be used as a simple hat while the wind force is increased even with a little fan.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art FIG. 6 schematically shows a conventional fan. As shown in the figure, between the opposing ribs 01, 01, a plurality of intermediate ribs 02 of the same size as the ribs are provided in layers and are fastened by using a pin 03, which is essential. Folding base papers 04, which are spread in the end and alternately foldable, are attached to both sides to form a fan 05.

By the way, in the conventional fan 05, since the main ribs 01 and the middle ribs 02 are linear, the fan body 0
If you grab 6 and fan it, there is a problem that a large amount of wind force cannot be obtained with a little fan.

In view of the above circumstances, it is an object of the present invention to provide a fan in which the wind force increases even with a little fan, and the fan can be used as a simple hat.

[0005]

The structure of a fan according to the present invention for achieving the above object has a plurality of elongated portions which have bent portions of substantially similar shape and are stacked in layers, and the elongated portions. One end of the long part is rotatably connected to the main part through a fastener, and the main part is extended on the front surface side of the plurality of long parts and is foldable with the rotation of the long parts. It is characterized in that it is provided with a fan blade.

In the above structure, the side ends of the diverging mesh members are fixed to the upper and lower elongate parts of the plurality of elongate parts stacked in layers, and the mesh members are It is characterized in that it is reversibly provided on the back surface side of the elongated portion having the bent portion where the fan curtain portion is extended.

In the above structure, the bent portion of the elongated portion includes a first bent portion provided on a main portion side forming the crown portion of the hat and a second bent portion forming the brim portion of the hat. And the second bent portion has a larger bending angle than the first bending angle, and is substantially S-shaped when the long portion is folded.

In the above structure, the long portion is made of bamboo or elastically deformable synthetic resin.

In the above construction, a slit portion is formed in the mesh member provided on the back surface side of the elongated portion so as to be reversible, and the slit portion is provided with an adjustable adjustment tool.

[0010]

In the above structure, when used as a fan, the fan is first expanded and then the body is grasped and used.
At this time, since the bent portion is provided, even with a little fan, the fan wind becomes stronger than in the conventional case. Next, when using it as a hat, first expand the fan, then expand the mesh member that is fixed to the uppermost and lowermost parts of the long part and is held reversibly on the back side to form a crown. Shape the hat.

EXAMPLE A preferred example of the present invention will be described below.

1 and 2 schematically show a fan structure according to this embodiment. As shown in the figure, the fan 11 of the present embodiment has a first bent portion 12a and a second bent portion 12b that are substantially similar to each other.
And a plurality of layers (8 in this embodiment)
Main part 14 in which one end of the long part 12 is rotatably coupled to the long part 12 via a pin 13.
And a fan-shaped curtain portion 1 made of cloth, which is extended on the front surface side of the plurality of elongated portions 12 and is foldable as the elongated portions 12 rotate.
5 is included.

Therefore, when the fan is used as a fan as shown in FIG. 1, the long parts 12-1 to 12-8 are expanded and the fan curtain part 15 is stretched so that the body part 16 is grasped by hand. With the fan, the tip end side of the second bent portion 12b is bent as the fan is blown, and a strong wind is generated. The material of the fan curtain 15 is not particularly limited, but in general, a cloth made of natural fibers or synthetic fibers is more preferable. Further, other materials such as synthetic paper having a texture of cloth may be used. It is preferable that any material that can be folded and is not bulky is used.

Further, as shown in FIG. 3, the first bent portion 12a formed in a substantially similar shape to the plurality of elongated portions 12-1 to 12-8 stacked in the above-mentioned layer form, when expanded, The first bent portion 12a and the main portion 14 form a part of the crown portion 21 of the hat, and the brim portion 22 of the hat is formed on the tip end side of the second bent portion 12b.

Further, as shown in FIG. 2, the elongated portion 12 has a substantially S-shape when folded, and the bending angle of the second bending portion 12b on the tip side is the first bending. Part 1
It is made larger than the bending angle of the second bending portion 12b of 2a.

As shown in FIG. 2, the bending angle of the first bent portion 12a is smaller at the uppermost long portion 12-1 than at the lowermost long portion 12-8. The angle is gradually increased from the top to the bottom so that the long parts with the fan curtains overlap each other. On the other hand, the bending angle of the second bent portion 12b is larger at the uppermost long portion 12-1 than at the lowermost long portion 12-8. The angle is gradually reduced over time so that the long portions overlap with each other. Incidentally, the first bending angle 12a and the second bending angle 12
The angle of b is 90 degrees to 150. The reason for defining the angle in this way is that, when used as a hat described later, if it exceeds the range of the above angle, the function as a hat cannot be exhibited.

The elongated portions 12-4 and 12-5 have longer axial lengths and the elongated portion 12-1.
And 12-8, the length is gradually reduced to form the brim 22 of the hat. Further, the bending angle α of the second bent portion 12b for forming the collar portion 22
Must be at an angle such that a cap-shaped collar can be formed.

Further, as shown in FIGS. 3 to 5, among the plurality of long portions 12 stacked in layers, two long portions, that is, an uppermost portion 12-1 and a lowermost portion 12-8 are provided. Is fixed to both ends of a mesh member 23 having a flared end along the longitudinal direction of the elongated portion, and the mesh member 23 is provided so as to be reversible so as to form a part of the crown portion 21 of the hat. ing. When it is used as a fan, it is used in close contact with the side of the fan curtain portion 14, and when it is used as a hat, by changing the state from FIG. 3B to FIG. The mesh member 23 expands, and the cap crown portion 2
1 is formed.

The mesh member 23 is a mesh-like member,
Has a ventilation function. The mesh member 23 is preferably made of an extremely thin material made of natural or synthetic fibers for the convenience of folding.

In this embodiment, the mesh member 23 is formed with a cutout portion 24, and the cutout portion has a cutout portion 24.
An elastic fastener 25 such as rubber or an adjuster having an engaging portion is provided so that the hat is a size-free hat.

In the above structure, when used as a fan, as shown in FIG. 1, the fan curtain 15 is first expanded and then the body 16 is grasped and used. At this time, since the bent portion is provided, the bending of the bent portion makes the blowing wind stronger than before even with a slight fan.

Next, in the case of using as a hat, first, the fan curtain portion 15 is expanded, and then the mesh member 23 is fixed to the uppermost and lowermost portions of the long portion and is held on the back side so as to be reversible. To form the crown 21 and shape the hat.

[0023]

As described above, according to the fan of the present invention, since the elongated portion has the bent portion, when the fan is used as a fan, when the fan is grasped and fanned, the fan wind is the same as that of the conventional fan. It will be stronger in comparison.

Next, in the case of use as a hat, first, the fan is expanded, and then the mesh member which is fixed to the uppermost and lowermost parts of the long part and which is held reversibly on the back side is expanded. By forming the, you can form a simple hat.

Further, since it can be used as a simple hat as a function which the conventional fan does not have, it is sufficient to wear it on the head when carrying it, and there is no problem in storing the fan.
