BACKGROUND ARTA cap is formed to block ultraviolet rays or is worn on the head for warm. A brim is formed in all directions or toward a front side with a crown surrounding the head as its center, or is formed without the brim. In this way, there are various kinds of caps.
In recent years, the cap is not simply worn for the purpose of functionality, and the cap is variously used as a means for expressing wearer's attraction.
When the wind blows, the cap provided with the brim according to the related art may be easily taken off due to force of raising the brim toward the top from the bottom, or heat generated on the wearer's face may be collected under the brim to cause the forehead to be hot.
In order to solve the problem, there has been developed a technology of forming an air opening in the brim of the cap or forming a double brim in order to cover the air opening.
Technologies of the cap provided with the double brim according to the related art are disclosed in Korean Utility Model Registration Nos. 234240 and 0457025.
In recent years, in order to finely wear the cap provided with the brim, the wearer wears the cap while the brim is bent upward, and when the brim whose bottom portion has characters or a logo is bent upward, the wearer wears such that characters or the logo is seen.
DISCLOSURE Technical ProblemHowever, the cap provided with the brim according to the related art has the following problems.
(1) In order to finely wear the cap, when the wearer wears the cap while the brim is forcibly bent upward to be raised, since a shape of a body surrounding the forehead is changed to cause the body to press the forehead, the cap feels bad to wear.
Furthermore, the cap has a double brim in which the brim of the cap is double.
(2) In this case, when the wind blows hard, since the second brim waves, the cap feels bad to wear.
(3) Since the second brim is slantingly raised, direct light may enter through the air opening.
(4) Since the first brim or the second brim blocks wearer's front, left and right views, there is an inconvenience in that the wearer moves the head in order to secure the views.
(5) Since the second brim directly comes in contact with the front side of the body of the cap, when the second brim is raised, the shape of the body is changed, so that the cap may feel bad to wear.
Technical SolutionIn order to solve the problems, an embodiment of the present invention provides a general cap including a body and a brim.
A bending plate provided with a plurality of cutting lines is formed inside the brim, a core member is formed at a rear lower end of the bending plate, and fabric surrounds an outer surface of the core member to backstitch a peripheral portion and the cutting lines.
Further, another embodiment of the present invention provides a general cap including a body and a brim, and the brim is divided into first and second brims.
An air opening is formed in the first brim, and the second brim is formed at an upper end of the first brim to cover the air opening.
The first brim is formed to protrude forward from the body, and an elliptical air opening is cut to be separated from a portion of the first brim coming in contact with the body with a predetermined distance.
A bending plate provided with a plurality of cutting lines is formed the inside of the second brim, and a core member is formed at a rear lower end of the bending plate.
Effect of the InventionAccording to the functional cap of the present invention, the following effects are obtained.
(1) In order to finely wear the cap, when the brim is bent upward to be raised, since a shape of a portion where a rear end of the brim comes in contact with the body is not changed by the core member, the cap feels good to wear. Further, since the brim is bent in multiple steps, it is possible to further finely wear the cap.
Moreover, the cap has the double brim in which the brim of the cap is double.
(2) In this case, even when the wind blows hard, since the second brim is strongly supported by the core member, the cap is slightly shaken, so that the cap feels good to wear.
(3) Since the second brim is bent in parallel with the first brim, it is possible to prevent direct light from entering through the air opening.
(4) Since the air opening of the first brim is cut in a streamline shape so as to sufficiently secure the wearer's left and right views as well as the front view, it is possible to sufficiently secure the wearer's view to easy to wear.
(5) Since the second brim is fixed to the front side of the body of the cap together with the core member, even though the second brim is bent to be raised, since the shape of the body is not changed by the core member, the cap feels good to wear.
