Description

Description: BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to improvements in hoods such as raincoats and cold clothes. [0003] 2. Description of the Related Art [0004] A hood is removably attached to a collar opening of a garment such as a raincoat or a winter clothes by a snap button or a fastener such as a fastener. The hood is used by directly covering the head or wearing a hat. [0003] In addition, a drawstring is inserted along the opening edge of the face opening, and the hood is attached to the wearer's head by adjusting the opening by pulling the drawstring downward while wearing. It can be adhered. On the other hand, there is also a hood in which an eaves portion projects forward from a position above the opening edge, and the eaves portion makes it difficult for rain to hit the face. However, since the hood is formed of a flexible fabric, wrinkles are generated in the eaves when the squeezed string is squeezed. For this reason, rainwater that flows down the outer surface of the hood may flow into the face from the opening through the vertical wrinkles. Therefore, the present invention has been made in view of the above-mentioned conventional problems, and an object of the present invention is to provide a hood capable of suppressing the intrusion of rainwater flowing down along the outer surface of the hood into the face. [0007] The present invention has been made to solve the above problems, and the hood according to the present invention comprises:
In a hood in which an aperture string is inserted along the opening edge to squeeze the face opening, and an eaves part projects forwardly at a position above the opening edge, at least of the eaves part of the opening edge A shape-retaining member is continuously provided in the region, and the eaves portion is configured to squeeze upward with the squeezing string as the fulcrum when the squeezing string is squeezed. DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS An embodiment of a hood according to the present invention will be described below with reference to FIGS. FIG.
The hood shown in FIG. 1 is a bag-shaped hood main body 2 that is worn on the head and forms a face opening 1, and extends at a predetermined width from the position below the opening edge 3 of the face opening 1 to the left and right. And a pair of mask pieces 4 formed. The pair of left and right mask pieces 4 are configured to be locked and connected to each other by locking means, and are configured to cover the periphery of the wearer's mouth in the locked state. Here, although various structures can be adopted as the locking means, the hook-and-loop fastener 5 is used in the present embodiment. A snap button can also be used as the locking means. The hood main body 2 and the pair of mask pieces 4 are formed of a flexible cloth, and the hood main body 2
Is formed in a hollow shape from a waterproof outer surface 6 and a breathable lining 7, and the outer surface 6 and the lining 7 are connected to each other by sewing at a predetermined location. Further, two drawn cords 8 and 9 are inserted between the outer material 6 and the lining material 7. The first drawstring 8 is for adjusting the opening area of the face opening 1 and is arranged along the opening edge 3 so as to have a substantially inverted U shape when viewed from the front. The squeezing string 8 is partially pulled out to the outside from the eyelet 10 attached in the vicinity of the base end portion of the mask piece 4, and the length inserted through the inside by the left and right stoppers 11 is adjusted. It has a configuration that can. The second drawstring 9 circulates substantially horizontally from the position on one side of the head below the back of the head to the position on the other side of the head. The left and right ends are partially pulled out from the eyelet 10. The length can be adjusted together with the first drawstring 8 by the stopper 11. These drawstrings 8, 9
Is made of, for example, a rubber cord. On the other hand, at the position above the opening edge 3, an eaves portion 12 protrudes forward. The eaves part 12
The protrusion gradually increases toward the substantially center, and is formed in a substantially semicircular shape as a whole. The eaves part 12
Also, the outer surface 6 and the lining 7 are formed in a hollow shape, and the first drawstring 8 is inserted through the hollow portion 13. In more detail, as shown in FIG.
5 and is sewn to the lining 7 at one location in the substantially central position of the eaves portion 12 in the left-right direction as shown in FIG. That is, the drawstring 8 is not connected to the outer material 6 or the lining material 7 except for this one sewn portion 14. Moreover, since it is sewn on the lining 7 side and is not sewn on the outer surface 6 side, the waterproof property of the outer surface 6 can be maintained. Further, a bead 15 (piping) as a shape-retaining member is attached to the opening edge 3 including the eaves 12. Specifically, the ball edge 15 is continuously provided in the entire area of the opening edge 3 except for the area of the mask piece 4. The ball edge 15 has a mounting piece 16 extending in the longitudinal direction as shown in FIG. 4 (b), and the mounting piece 16 is sandwiched vertically between the outer cover 6 and the lining 7 and is sewn together. By doing so, it is fixed to the opening edge 3. More specifically,
The bead 15 includes a core material 15a having a substantially circular cross-sectional view and the core material 15
The mounting piece 16 is formed by extending a side edge of the sheet body 15b outwardly. The core material 15a and the sheet body 15b are made of, for example, a synthetic resin, and the sheet body 1
For example, a urethane film is used as 5b. In this way, the bead 15 is configured to maintain its shape by its own elasticity, and has a higher rigidity than the fabric (the outer material 6 and the lining material 7) of the hood body 2.
Therefore, by attaching the ball edge 15, the waist of the opening edge 3 becomes strong, and the shape retention of the opening edge 3 is improved. In FIG. 1, reference numeral 17 denotes a pocket for inserting the mask piece 4 from its tip 4a. The pocket 17 has an opening 17a on the front side. Reference numeral 18 denotes a pair of male and female snap buttons provided at a position above the base end of the mask piece 4 in order to maintain the bent state inward when the mask piece 4 is inserted into the pocket 17. Such a hood has snap buttons 20, 2
It is attached to the collar of clothes such as a raincoat by 1 etc. and covers the wearer's head. In that case, in this embodiment, since the snap button 21 (fastener) is provided not only at the lower end portion of the hood body 2 but also at a position below the base end portion of the mask piece 4, By locking the snap button 21 at one position to the raincoat side, the flickering of the mask piece 4 can be suppressed more than before. If the opening edge 3 is squeezed by pulling both ends of the first drawstring 8 downward while the hood is worn, the opening area of the face opening 1 is reduced, and the wearer's head The hood is in close contact. The second drawstring 9
In the same manner, if the hood is pulled forward and squeezed, the hood adheres even at a position below the back of the head, and therefore, the hood is difficult to be removed due to strong winds, and fluttering can be suppressed. In particular, in the case of fishing, a hat with a hook is often worn inside the hood, but the hood can be brought into close contact with the hat by squeezing the two drawstrings 8 and 9. In addition, as shown in FIG. 3, the longitudinal direction one end part 30a is fixed to the hood main body 2, and the other end part 30b is located at the substantially central position of the rear head of the hood main body 2.
A diaphragm piece 30 having a free end is provided along the vertical direction. The other end 30b of the squeezing piece 30 can be attached to and detached from the outer surface of the hood main body 2 by a hook-and-loop fastener 31, and the hood main body 2 is squeezed up and down by changing the mounting position of the other end 30b up and down. The looseness can be removed. Further, when the first drawstring 8 is squeezed, the outer fabric 6 and the lining 7 (fabric) at the insertion position are shrunk.
Since the opening edge 3 is provided with a bead 15 having shape retention, the opening edge 3 does not shrink. Therefore, from the state before the drawing shown by the two-dot chain line in FIG. 6 to the state after the drawing shown by the solid line in FIG. It will be in a rushed state. In addition, the occurrence of vertical wrinkles at the opening edge 3 is suppressed by the ball edge 15, and the eaves part 12 is maintained in a stretched state. Therefore, the rain water flowing downward from the vicinity of the top of the head is blocked by the protruding eaves portion 12. Since rainwater flows down into the left and right through the hollow portion formed at the insertion position K of the drawstring 8, the rainwater flowing down is prevented from entering the face. In particular, since the ball edge 15 is provided not only in the area of the eaves portion 12 but also until it reaches the mask piece 4, it is also possible to prevent rainwater from flowing into the face from the side. Since the substantially central portion of the first drawstring 8 is fixed to the eaves portion 12 by sewing, the sewing portion 1
4, the both ends of the squeezing string 8 can be squeezed almost uniformly, and not only the adhesion to the face is further enhanced, but also the effect of preventing wrinkles at the opening edge 3 is improved. Can prevent rainwater from entering. By the way, it is also conceivable that the ball edge 15 is provided not on the opening edge 3 but on the back side by a predetermined distance from the opening edge 3. For example, it is conceivable to sew and fix the bead 15 on the outer surface side of the sewn part at the base end portion of the eaves portion 12 so that rain water may be squeezed when the squeezed string 8 is squeezed. It flowed to the eaves part 12 side beyond the point, and the inflow of rainwater to the face could not be sufficiently prevented. On the other hand, by providing the bead 15 on the opening edge 3 as in the present embodiment, the waist of the eaves 12 is strengthened, and the occurrence of wrinkles is suppressed, and the eaves 12 moves upward. This prevents rainwater from flowing into the face. Although the drawstring 8 is sewn at one place, it may be sewn at two places or at three or more places at intervals. In this case, it is preferable that the hood body 2 is not fixed. Furthermore, in the said embodiment, although the 1st drawstring 8 was comprised from one string, you may comprise the drawstring 8 from two right and left strings from the sewing part 14 as the starting point. The bead 15 is provided over substantially the entire area of the opening edge 3. However, by providing the bead 15 at least in the area of the eaves 12, the eaves 12 can be pushed upward. And generation | occurrence | production of the wrinkle in the eaves part 12 can also be prevented. In addition, the shape of the eaves portion 12 can be appropriately changed in design, such that the first drawstring 8 is not sewn,
A configuration in which the second drawstring 9 is omitted can also be adopted. As described above, since the shape retaining member is provided at the opening edge so that the eaves portion is pushed up, the shape retaining member enhances the shape retaining property of the eaves portion and the wrinkle is improved. Generation | occurrence | production is suppressed and the rain water which flows down the outer surface of a food | hood can be blocked | closed with the eaves part which pushed up, and the penetration | invasion to the face can be suppressed.
