The foregoing has outlined rather broadly the more pertinent and important features of the present disclosure so that the detailed description of the invention that follows may be better understood and so that the present contribution to the art can be more fully appreciated. Additional features of the invention will be described hereinafter which form the subject of the claims of the invention. It should be appreciated by those skilled in the art that the conception and the disclosed specific methods and structures may be readily utilized as a basis for modifying or designing other structures for carrying out the same purposes of the present disclosure. It should be realized by those skilled in the art that such equivalent structures do not depart from the spirit and scope of the invention as set forth in the appended claims.
Other features and advantages of the present invention will become apparent when the following detailed description is read in conjunction with the accompanying drawings, in which:
The following description is provided to enable any person skilled in the art to make and use the invention and sets forth the best modes contemplated by the inventor of carrying out his invention. Various modifications, however, will remain readily apparent to those skilled in the art, since the general principles of the present invention have been defined herein to specifically provide a fabric providing electromagnetic radiation protection, which may be used to create garments and electronic covers and cases.
Advantageously, the hat or headwear garment is an ideal choice to carry out the present invention as preventing electromagnetic radiation from a wearer's head is critical. However, it should be understood that any type of garment may be provided, including but not limited to shirts, blouses, scarfs, pants, shorts, dresses, suits, athletic gear, etc.
In one embodiment, the garment is constructed of at least two woven fabrics 102. In a preferred embodiment, one of the at least two fabrics is carbon yarn. In other embodiments, one of the at least two fabrics is any form of carbon material. Advantageously, the carbon yarn is configured to absorb electromagnetic radiation 104. It should be noted, that the present invention does not provide any fabrics or materials that are configured to reflect electromagnetic radiation. One reason to exclude the use of any radiation reflective material is that they are mostly harmful to the environment. Another reason to exclude use of the radiation reflective materials in the present invention is to prevent the harmful radiation from going back into the environment after the radiation is reflected off the garment. For instance, silver is a common material configured to reflect radiation, however, the use of silver is harmful to the environment as it does not dissolve and is toxic. For the purposes of this disclosure “toxic” is defined to mean “harmful through constant exposure.” For the purposes of this disclosure “fabric” is defined to mean “one or more of materials, fabrics, fibers, yarns, textiles, or similar materials combined via weaving, knitting, bonding, braiding, crocheting, knotting, tatting, felting, printing, or similar.”
In another embodiment, woven fabric material is a combination of wool yarn, carbon stretch fabric, and carbon, wherein the carbon stretch fabric contains approximately 35% carbon fibers and elastane fiber, such as Lycra®, and the carbon essentially consists of approximately 80% of broken carbon. As previously mentioned, the materials selected are critical to absorb the electromagnetic radiation and electric and magnetic fields (EMFs) rather than reflect the electromagnetic radiation and electric and magnetic fields (EMFs) back into the environment, as such the material should be free of any metals, e.g. silver. In another embodiment, the woven fabric material essentially consists of 80% carbon yarn, 15% wool, and 5% stretch yarn. In some embodiments, the wool may be replaced with similar fabrics, such as cotton. The percentages discussed are necessary to absorb a predetermined about of ER and EMF waves from the environment, which is at least 97%. In the addition to fabric, in some embodiments, solid carbon pieces formed to the shape of the garment to item may also be provided. In some embodiments, the solid carbon pieces may be positioned to cover the organs of the wearer, such that the organs are protected from ER and EMF waves. For example, carbon pieces can be positioned approximate to the heart the wearer.
The fabric combination of the present invention absorbs at least 97% of ER and EMF waves from the environment, produced by electric devices, such as phones, laptops, tablet computers, microwaves, ovens, robots, 4G, 5G, Wi-Fi radiation, Bluetooth, or any other device or environmental sources emitting ER and EMF. In one embodiment, the functional carbon woven fabric protects the wearer and absorbs EMF as follows: up to 700 MHZ-99.9%, up to 2000 MHZ (2 GHZ)-99.90%, up to 5000 MHZ (or 5 GHZ) 99.6%.
The woven fabric may be constructed or produced by a variety of methods, including via a loom either by hand or machine, as well as 3D printing. Once the fabric is created, it can be shaped, cut, pressed, stitched, etc. into the desired garment or item as well known in the art. The functional fabric combination of the present invention should offer at least a 97% protection (absorption rate) of electromagnetic radiation and EMF waves. In one embodiment, the novel material combination and fabric ratio provides 97-99% protection (absorption rate) of electromagnetic radiation (ER) and EMF waves.
Although the invention has been described in considerable detail in language specific to structural features, it is to be understood that the invention defined in the appended claims is not necessarily limited to the specific features described. Rather, the specific features are disclosed as exemplary preferred forms of implementing the claimed invention. Stated otherwise, it is to be understood that the phraseology and terminology employed herein, as well as the abstract, are for the purpose of description and should not be regarded as limiting. Therefore, while exemplary illustrative embodiments of the invention have been described, numerous variations and alternative embodiments will occur to those skilled in the art. Such variations and alternate embodiments are contemplated, and can be made without departing from the spirit and scope of the invention.
It should further be noted that throughout the entire disclosure, the labels such as left, right, front, back, top, bottom, forward, reverse, clockwise, counter clockwise, up, down, or other similar terms such as upper, lower, aft, fore, vertical, horizontal, oblique, proximal, distal, parallel, perpendicular, transverse, longitudinal, etc. have been used for convenience purposes only and are not intended to imply any particular fixed direction or orientation. Instead, they are used to reflect relative locations and/or directions/orientations between various portions of an object.
