The present invention relates to a tightening band for a hat.
In general, a hat is a collective term for protecting the head from the cold or heat, or wearing on the head as a symbol of decorative or social status.
These hats are made of plastic, felt, wool, straw, leather, etc., and are collectively referred to as a hat having a crown and a brim and a cap without the brim. However, the hat in English is a collective term for hats which sometimes cover the cap, but it is general that the cap is limitatively used without including the hat.
Furthermore, a size adjustment band is provided on the back of the hat. The size adjustment band adjusts the length so that both men and women having different head sizes may use the hats. On the other hand, the user frequently wears the hat backwards so that the tightening band for adjusting the size of the hat is positioned on the forehead portion.
However, there is a problem in that the appearance of the tightening band is simple so as not to reflect the taste of the consumer. Further, there is a problem that the forehead skin of the user is pressed by the tightening band, or sweat is generated at the pressed position, which is inconvenient to use.
An object of the present invention is to provide a band cover for tightening a hat which can reflect a consumer's taste with respect to a tightening band having a simple appearance.
Another object of the present invention is to provide a band cover for tightening a hat capable of absorbing sweat without generating pressed traces of the skin on a tightening band portion for adjusting the size of the hat.
Yet another object of the present invention is to provide a band cover for tightening a hat which can adjust a length so as to fit a length of the tightening band portion for adjusting the size of the hat.
In order to solve the objects, according to an embodiment of the present invention, there is provided a tightening band cover for a hat comprising: a cover body in which an insertion hole is formed to be inserted in a longitudinal direction of a tightening band adjusting a wearing size of the hat; a pad portion formed on one side of the cover body and coming in contact with a user's skin; and a display portion formed on the other side of the cover body.
The cover body may have an opening portion for inserting the tightening band in a width direction of the tightening band.
A detachable member may be attached to a surface corresponding to the opening portion of the cover body so as to be opened and closed while the tightening band is inserted.
The detachable member may be a Velcro member.
The display portion or the pad portion may be detachably attached to the cover body.
According to another embodiment of the present invention, there is provided a tightening band cover for a hat which is used for a tightening band adjusting a wearing size of the hat, comprising: a cover portion covering the tightening band; a length variable portion having one end at one end of the cover portion in a longitudinal direction of the tightening band and having a variable length; and a fixing clip for fixing the other end of the length variable portion to the tightening band.
As an example, the cover portion may include: a first cover member covering one surface of the tightening band; a second cover member which has one end rotatably provided at one end of the first cover band through a hinge shaft and covers the other surface of the tightening band; and a fastening which fastens the other end of the first cover member and the other end of the second cover member.
As another example, the cover portion may cover the tightening band except for a surface of the tightening band which faces the wearer's skin, and may be fixed to the tightening band through the length variable portion and the fixing clip.
The fastening portion may include a fastening groove provided at one of the other end of the first cover member and the other end of the second cover member; and a fastening protrusion provided on the other one to be inserted and fastened into the fastening groove.
The length variable portion may include: a first length variable member which is detachably and rotatably connected to one end of the cover portion by a first hinge pin; and a second member which is detachably and rotatably connected to the first length variable member by a second hinge pin.
The fixing clip may include; a first fixing member covering the tightening band; a second fixing member which has one end provided rotatably at one end of the first fixing member through a first rotation shaft and connected to the other end of the length variable portion through a connection pin and covers the tightening band; a third fixing member which has one end provided rotatably at the other end of the first fixing member through a second rotation shaft and covers a part of the second fixing member; and a locking unit for locking the other end of the third fixing member and the second fixing member.
The locking portion may include a locking groove provided at one of the other end of the third fixing member and the second fixing member; and a locking protrusion provided on the other one to be inserted and fastened into the locking groove.
The tightening band cover for the hat according to another embodiment of the present invention may further include a pad portion which is detachably provided on one surface of the cover portion and comes in contact with a user's skin.
