Description

The present invention relates to a frame that supports a hood.

Hoods for head and neck clothing are distributed on the market as garments that are worn directly on the head, but they are worn while still in contact with the head even when it is raining and other times when you want to avoid wearing the hood directly. There are frame-shaped helmets on the market that do not come into direct contact with the head, but they come into direct contact with the head. There are also structures for rainwear hoods and shape-retaining members for rainwear hoods that have been published (see Patent Document 1).
Patent Document 1 describes a method for easily and appropriately maintaining the shape of the brim of a hood of rainwear. The hood structure includes a visor and left and right side portions that are integral with the brim, and a shape-retaining member that is integral with the brim.

JP 2013-19060 A JP 2020-59949 A

Patent Document 1 is not intended for ventilation, but is a structure that includes a brim that protrudes forward so as to surround the front open part, and a shape-retaining member that is attached to the inner or outer surface and is integrated with the brim. The shape of the shape-retaining member is characterized in that it is easy to elastically deform by narrowing the width at the deformation local portion and reducing the plate thickness. The shape-retaining member is a member that retains the shape of the brim, and "this shape-retaining member is characterized in that it is integrally provided with an upper part that retains the shape of the eaves part of the brim, a right lower part that retains the shape of the right side part of the brim, and a left lower part that retains the shape of the left side part of the brim, and is easy to elastically deform at the part connecting the upper part and the right lower part and the part connecting the upper part and the left lower part," but there is no description of the hood itself retaining its shape. Furthermore, in order to facilitate elastic deformation, the width of the shape-retaining member is narrowed at the deformed portion, and the plate thickness of the shape-retaining member is reduced at the deformed portion, but there is no description that the shape-retaining member has the strength to support the entire hood.
Patent Document 2 is the basic invention of the present invention, and is a raincoat equipped with a hood support frame consisting of a head frame, a shoulder frame, and a frame core. The structure is such that "the head frame is maintained vertically by the shoulder frame and the frame core," and when attaching it to existing clothing, it is difficult to change the size. Furthermore, there is room for improvement in manufacturing costs and convenience during storage to make it more popular and easier to purchase.

The present invention is a frame that maintains the hood shape of clothing that covers the sides of the head, has a head contact part to support the hood at a position away from the head, and aims to improve ventilation, with the end of the frame located in the range from around the top of the head to the vicinity of the shoulder. The frame has a different configuration from that of Patent Document 2, and in the case of a frame whose end is shaped to contact the shoulder side, it is possible to configure the main body as one unit. The frame has a head contact part inside that is configured to contact the head and to link with the movement of the hood and the head.
In situations where a hood must be worn for long periods of time, the hood clings to the face due to wind, etc., reducing work efficiency, and in hot seasons, ventilation is difficult, which increases discomfort. In addition, improved technology is needed that can be easily adapted to existing clothing. To put it into practical use, it is desirable to have a frame that can be selected according to the user's needs.

This frame maintains the hood shape of clothing covering the sides of the head, provides a distance between the hood and the head, and is aligned with the inner surface of the hood to improve ventilation, and has a plate-shaped main body and a head contact part that comes into contact with the head on the inside of the frame.
The frame also has a support body that supports the head contact portion, maintains the hood shape of clothing with the sides of the head covered, provides a distance between the hood and the head, and is aligned with the inner surface of the hood to improve ventilation, and has a plate-shaped main body with a head contact portion on the inside of the frame that contacts the head.
Further, there is a frame having a body position fixing device, which maintains the hood shape of clothing covering the sides of the head, leaves a distance between the hood and the head, and is aligned with the inner surface of the hood to improve ventilation, the frame having a plate-shaped main body and a head contact part that comes into contact with the head on the inside of the frame; or a frame having a body position fixing device and a support that supports the head contact part, which maintains the hood shape of clothing covering the sides of the head, leaves a distance between the hood and the head, and is aligned with the inner surface of the hood to improve ventilation, the frame having a plate-shaped main body and a head contact part that comes into contact with the head on the inside of the frame.
"Following the inner surface of the hood" indicates that it is preferable that there is a portion that is in intimate contact with the inner surface of the hood, including the case where the portion is partially aligned.
The term "plate-like" refers to a shape with a small thickness, and includes shapes that have been changed from a plate-like shape by various processes such as drilling holes, drawing, bending, cutting out various shapes, partially protruding, etc., and also includes a combination of various processes. Also, when the main body and the head contact part are integrally molded, as long as the main body is plate-like, the head contact part can have any shape.

As described above, the frame of the present invention is not complicated in shape and has an easy-to-use structure, and the distance between the head and the hood prevents the hood from being worn directly, reduces direct exposure to external environmental factors such as rain and sunlight, and aims to reduce discomfort when wearing the hood for long periods of time. In addition, it can be attached to existing clothing, is inexpensive and easy to use, and has a simple shape that can be easily manufactured even when attached to new clothing from the beginning, aiming to popularize it by reducing costs.
The frame provides a wider field of vision, and has a head contact part that ensures space between the head and the hood while linking the hood to the movement of the head. It can be made even more convenient by using patterns that meet various needs, such as using the head contact part in contact with the head so that it can be supported by the frame inserted in the hood without being glued, using the frame body and head contact part as detachable, or using it like putting on clothes after putting your arms through the body position fixing device and attaching the frame in advance.
Also, if there is an area where the head contact part can be provided, the end of the frame can be shaped to be anywhere from the top of the head to the shoulder area, and if the end is set long and the frame is shaped to have a certain degree of depth, clothing can be sandwiched between the frame, and in the case of rain gear, the wet side can be placed inside and the frame turned inside out to prevent the surrounding area from getting wet. If a body position fixing device is attached, the stability of the frame when worn increases, and it can also be used as a handle when carrying clothing sandwiched between the frame.

Hereinafter, the details of "attaching to the vicinity of the shoulders", "end of the frame" and "wearing on the head" of the present invention and an embodiment thereof will be described with reference to Figs. 1 to 14.
Attachment near the shoulder means that the end of the frame is in contact with the shoulder, and also includes contact with the shoulder of the hood and a shape that fits along the shoulder as an attachment part.
The end of the frame refers to the end of the frame that is the lowest part in height when the frame is worn. The frame only needs to have an area large enough to accommodate the head contact part, and even if the frame is drilled or deformed, it refers to the end of the part closest to the shoulder when the frame is worn.
To crown one's head means to have something placed on the head, and can mean anything from something large enough to cover the head to a small area that is placed on top of the head.

1 is a front view of the first embodiment of the present invention in which the head contact parts 6 are positioned on the left and right. An example is shown in which the end part 12 of the main body 1 is configured by curving a plate-like object so that it is positioned above the ears of the head. The main body 1 is shaped to fit the hood from the vicinity of the face opening side 2 to the vicinity of the hood rear part 3. The head contact parts 6 positioned on the left and right are fixed by being sandwiched between the support 10, and the support 10 is hidden by the bulge of the part not sandwiched.
In Fig. 1, the main body 1 is in a generally inverted U-shape, and has the same shape and size from the vicinity of the face opening side 2 to the vicinity of the rear hood 3, and the support 10 is shown in a simple shape with two slits and curved inwards, but any shape that forms a protrusion on the inside is acceptable. Therefore, the support 10 and the head contact part 6 may be integrated. The head contact part 6 is to be in contact with the head, and Fig. 1 shows an example in which both ends of the head contact part 6 come into contact with the head and play a role in linking with the movement of the head due to the elasticity of a foam that is sandwiched between the support 10 and bulges out from the support 10.
Any material may be used, but it is preferably made of resin, and the main body 1 is, for example, LDPE, but other materials such as PP and PET are also possible, but since it is something that will be touched by hand, it should be made of a material that is flexible, does not produce burrs, and is not too hard, and a thickness of 0.05 mm to 1 mm is suitable. If it is too thin, it will be difficult to maintain its shape, and there is a possibility that it will not be effective depending on the external environment, and if it is too thick, it will be difficult to process and there is a possibility that the material cannot be easily cut.
The head contact portion 6 may be constructed in any manner, but an elastic head contact portion 6 can be constructed by, for example, sandwiching a hard soft urethane foam in the inwardly curved portion. In the case of a separate head contact portion 6 intended for use integrally with the main body 1, the support 10 and the head contact portion 6 are used as one unit, and any manner or material may be used, but for example, a hard soft urethane foam can be attached to a desired position on the main body 1. The position of the head contact portion 6 is not limited to that shown in FIG. 1, and it may be shaped to be worn on the head on the main body 1, and may be shaped to be placed on the head, ranging from a size that covers the head to a small area that is placed on the head, and may be modified in various ways based on the spirit of the present invention and is not excluded from the present invention.
Here, the "intended for integral use" of the present invention will be explained. Even if the head contact parts 6 are provided separately, they are to be used together as an integral part, and the head contact parts 6 may be sold separately as a frame of the present invention including the left and right head contact parts 6, or may be labeled as to be glued by the customer or to be glued by the customer for use, and in either case, they are sold as parts and used as an unfinished material for the frame of the present invention. Therefore, even if the main body 1 is not integral with the head contact parts 6 and does not have commonality with the main body 1 in terms of shape, material, etc., the head contact parts 6 are provided separately for the purpose of integral use with the main body, and the head contact parts 6 can be modified in various ways based on the spirit of the present invention, and those made as separate members are not excluded from the present invention.

FIG. 2 is a right side view of the head contact portion 6 of the first embodiment of the present invention, fixed by the support 10. The end portion 12 of the main body 1 is an example configured by curving a plate-like object so as to be located above the ears of the head. The main body 1 is shaped to fit the hood from the vicinity of the face opening side 2 to the vicinity of the hood rear 3. The support 10 is shown in a simple shape with two slits and curved inward, but any shape that forms a protrusion on the inside may be used. Therefore, the support 10 and the head contact portion 6 may be integrated. The head contact portion 6 is to be in contact with the head, and in FIG. 2, it is sandwiched and fixed in the support 10, and both ends of the head contact portion 6 come into contact with the head due to the elasticity of the foam that protrudes from the support 10, and has a role of interlocking with the movement of the head.
Any material may be used, but it is preferably made of resin, and the main body 1 is, for example, LDPE, but other materials such as PP and PET are also possible, but since it is something that will be touched by hand, it should be made of a material that is flexible, does not produce burrs, and is not too hard, and a thickness of 0.05 mm to 1 mm is suitable. If it is too thin, it will be difficult to maintain its shape, and there is a possibility that it will not be effective depending on the external environment, and if it is too thick, it will be difficult to process and there is a possibility that the material cannot be easily cut.
The head contact portion 6 may be constructed in any manner, but for example, a hard soft urethane foam or the like may be sandwiched between the inwardly curved portion to construct an elastic head contact portion 6. In the case of providing a separate head contact portion 6 for use integrally with the main body 1, the support 10 and the head contact portion 6 are integrated, and may be constructed in any manner or material, for example, by adhering a hard soft urethane foam or the like to a desired position on the main body 1. The position of the head contact portion 6 is not limited to that shown in FIG. 2, and may be changed in various ways based on the spirit of the present invention and is not excluded from the present invention.
Here, the "intended for integral use" of the present invention will be explained. Even if the head contact parts 6 are provided separately, they are to be used together as an integral part, and the head contact parts 6 may be sold separately as a frame of the present invention including the left and right head contact parts 6, or may be labeled as to be glued by the customer or to be glued by the customer for use, and in either case, they are sold as parts and used as an unfinished material for the frame of the present invention. Therefore, even if the main body 1 is not integral with the head contact parts 6 and does not have commonality with the main body 1 in terms of shape, material, etc., the head contact parts 6 are provided separately for the purpose of integral use with the main body, and the head contact parts 6 can be modified in various ways based on the spirit of the present invention, and those made as separate members are not excluded from the present invention.

FIG. 3 is a front view showing an outline of the selectable head contact part of the embodiment 2 of the present invention. The example shows a simple shape in which the support 10 is provided in a bowl-shaped main body 1, two slits are made and curved inward, and the head contact part 6 is sandwiched and fixed between the support 10. "Selectable" means that the support 10 and the head contact part 6 are provided selectably in all directions of 360 degrees around the top of the head. The number and positions of the support 10 and the head contact part 6 may be any number or positions, such as having a plurality of supports 10 so that the connected head contact part 6 is sandwiched between two or more points. In addition, the main body 1 can be variously modified based on the purpose of the present invention, such as a body with a hole at the top of the head or a body formed by a partial spherical shape, and is not excluded from the present invention. The dashed line in FIG. 3 shows the range of the end of the main body 1 that can be manufactured, the dashed line shows the range of the end of the support 10 that can be manufactured, and the dotted line shows the range of the end of the head contact part 6 that can be manufactured.
The head contact portion 6 may be constructed in any manner, but for example, a hard soft urethane foam or the like may be sandwiched between the inwardly curved portion to construct an elastic head contact portion 6. When a separate head contact portion 6 is provided for use integrally with the main body 1, the support 10 and the head contact portion 6 are integrated, and may be constructed in any manner or material, for example, by adhering a hard soft urethane foam or the like to a desired position on the main body 1. In order to minimize the contact area of the head contact portion, it is preferable to make it one-third or less of the area of the upper half of the head.
In addition, while FIG. 3 shows a bowl or soup bowl shape, various modifications can be made based on the spirit of the present invention, such as a ring shape with a circular cut-out at the top, a three-dimensional doughnut shape in which the support 10 and the head contact portion are integrated, or a partially deformed spherical shape, and are not excluded from the scope of the present invention.
Here, the "intended for integral use" of the present invention will be explained. Even if the head contact parts 6 are provided separately, they are to be used together as an integral part, and the head contact parts 6 may be sold separately as a frame of the present invention including the left and right head contact parts 6, or may be labeled as to be glued by the customer or to be glued by the customer for use, and in either case, they are sold as parts and used as an unfinished material for the frame of the present invention. Therefore, even if the main body 1 is not integral with the head contact parts 6 and does not have commonality with the main body 1 in terms of shape, material, etc., the head contact parts 6 are provided separately for the purpose of integral use with the main body, and the head contact parts 6 can be modified in various ways based on the spirit of the present invention, and those made as separate members are not excluded from the present invention.

FIG. 4 is a plan view showing an outline of the selectable head contact part of the embodiment 2 of the present invention. The example shows a simple shape in which the support 10 is provided in a bowl-shaped main body 1, two slits are made and curved inward, and the head contact part 6 is sandwiched and fixed between the support 10. "Selectable" means that the support 10 and the head contact part 6 are provided selectably in all directions of 360 degrees around the top of the head. The number and positions of the support 10 and the head contact part 6 may be any number or positions, such as having a plurality of supports 10 so that the head contact part 6 is sandwiched between two or more of them. In addition, the main body 1 may be modified in various ways based on the spirit of the present invention, such as a body with a hole at the top of the head or a body formed by a partial spherical shape, and is not excluded from the present invention. The dotted line in Figure 4 shows the range of the end that can be manufactured of the main body 1, the dashed line shows the range of the end that can be manufactured of the support body 10 as two circles on the top side and end side, and the dotted line shows the range of the end that can be manufactured of the head contact part 6 as an example, with eight of them lined up and connected to form a line that can be selected in all directions of 360 degrees.
The head contact portion 6 may be constructed in any manner, but for example, a hard soft urethane foam or the like may be sandwiched between the inwardly curved portion to construct an elastic head contact portion 6. When a separate head contact portion 6 is provided for use integrally with the main body 1, the support 10 and the head contact portion 6 are integrated, and may be constructed in any manner or material, for example, by adhering a hard soft urethane foam or the like to a desired position on the main body 1. In order to minimize the contact area of the head contact portion, it is preferable to make it one-third or less of the area of the upper half of the head.
In addition, while FIG. 3 shows a bowl or soup bowl shape, various modifications can be made based on the spirit of the present invention, such as a ring shape with a circular cut-out at the top, a three-dimensional doughnut shape in which the support 10 and the head contact portion are integrated, or a partially deformed spherical shape, and are not excluded from the scope of the present invention.
Here, the "intended for integral use" of the present invention will be explained. Even if the head contact parts 6 are provided separately, they are to be used together as an integral part, and the head contact parts 6 may be sold separately as a frame of the present invention including the left and right head contact parts 6, or may be labeled as to be glued by the customer or to be glued by the customer for use, and in either case, they are sold as parts and used as an unfinished material for the frame of the present invention. Therefore, even if the main body 1 is not integral with the head contact parts 6 and does not have commonality with the main body 1 in terms of shape, material, etc., the head contact parts 6 are provided separately for the purpose of integral use with the main body, and the head contact parts 6 can be modified in various ways based on the spirit of the present invention, and those made as separate members are not excluded from the present invention.

5 is a development view showing the third embodiment of the present invention before wearing. The main body 1 supporting the hood has a shape with a visor 7, a support body 10, a head contact part 6, and a terminal part 12 which is a shoulder-nearby attachment part 4. The main body 1 is formed by bending a plate-like object, and is used by bending it toward the shoulder at the hood boundary cut reference line 5. The hood boundary cut reference line 5 shown by a broken line is a mark as a reference line for the customer to make a cut according to the size of the hood. The main body 1 can be manufactured and sold in various patterns according to the needs of the customer, such as by simply contacting the head along the frame, or by making it detachable. The main body 1 is shaped to fit the hood from the vicinity of the face opening side 2 to the vicinity of the hood rear 3. 5 shows an example of the same shape and size from the vicinity of the face opening side 2 to the vicinity of the hood rear 3, but the main body 1 can be made to fit the face opening side 2 to the hood size and the hood rear 3 can be made to a different size, it can be made to fit the size inside the hood, or it can have no visor 7 or a modified type, and is not limited to the state shown in FIG. 5 with the frame unfolded, and can be variously modified based on the spirit of the present invention and is not excluded from the present invention. In addition, the position, size, and length of the support 10 are not limited to those shown in FIG. 5, and can be variously modified based on the spirit of the present invention and are not excluded from the present invention.
If the material can be easily cut, it can be cut to fit the size of the hood the customer has, and the shoulder-nearby attachment part 4 can be bent by cutting it to fit the shape of the shoulder, and the shape of the visor 7 can also be changed by the customer's processing. Here, in FIG. 5, the support 10 is shown as a simple one with two slits, but any shape can be used as long as it can be curved inward. Also, it is possible to provide a separate part with a shape that protrudes inward, and various methods are possible. Therefore, the support 10 and the head contact part 6 can be integrated. The head contact part 6 is to be in contact with the head, and as in FIG. 1, both ends of the head contact part 6 are in contact with the head due to the elasticity of the foam that is sandwiched between the support 10 and bulges out from the support 10, and it is an example that has a role of interlocking with the movement. Therefore, the main body 1 can be a basic rectangular shape or a modified shape, and the shape of the shoulder-nearby attachment part 4 is not limited to that shown in FIG. 5, and can be variously modified based on the spirit of the present invention and is not excluded from the present invention.

Fig. 6 is a front view of a third embodiment of the present invention, in which the head contact portion is provided with a contact portion located on the left and right. The main body 1 is substantially inverted U-shaped and has a support 10, a head contact portion 6, and a shoulder-proximal contact portion 4, and the end portion 12 is the shoulder-proximal contact portion 4, which is used by making a partial cut along the hood boundary cut reference line 5 and bending it so that it fits the shoulder. If the material is soft, it can be used without making a cut, and the present invention is not limited to Fig. 6, and various changes can be made based on the spirit of the present invention and are not excluded from the present invention.
The main body 1 can be manufactured and sold in various patterns according to customer needs, such as by simply fitting it to the head along the frame, by directly attaching it to clothing 9, or by making it detachable. In Fig. 6, an example is shown in which the shape and size are the same from the vicinity of the face opening side 2 to the vicinity of the hood rear 3, but if the main body 1 is made of a material that is easy to process, it can be made to match the size of the hood, or only the face opening side 2 can be made to fit the hood size and the hood rear 3 can be made a different size. The shape can also be changed by customer processing, so it is not limited to Fig. 6, and various modifications can be made based on the spirit of the present invention and are not excluded from the present invention.
In Fig. 6, the head contact part 6 is shown in a simple shape with two slits and curved inwards, but any shape that forms a protrusion on the inside may be used. Any method may be used to fix the head contact part 6, but a head contact part 6 that reduces the feeling of pressure can be configured by, for example, sandwiching a hard soft urethane foam in the part that is curved inwards. When a separate head contact part 6 is provided for use integrally with the main body 1, any shape, method, and material may be used, but, for example, a hard soft urethane foam can be attached to a desired position. The position of the head contact part 6 is not limited to that shown in Fig. 6, and can be changed in various ways based on the spirit of the present invention and is not excluded from the present invention.

Fig. 7 is a right side view showing a third embodiment of the present invention, in which the head contact portion is provided with a contact portion located on the left and right. The main body 1 supporting the hood has a shape with a visor 7, a support body 10, and a head contact portion 6, and the end portion 12 is the shoulder-nearby contact portion 4, and an example is shown in which the hood is used by bending it toward the shoulder at the hood boundary cut reference line 5. If the material is soft, it can be used without making a cut, and is not limited to Fig. 7, and various modifications can be made based on the spirit of the present invention and are not excluded from the present invention. The head contact portion 6 is sandwiched between a space curved inwardly at the part of the support body 10 with two slits, and the part other than the part visible from the right side is shown by a dashed line as a hidden line.
The main body 1 can be manufactured and sold in various patterns according to customer needs, such as by simply contacting the head along the frame, by directly attaching to clothing 9, or by making it detachable. The main body 1 is shaped to fit the hood from the vicinity of the face opening side 2 to the vicinity of the hood rear 3. Fig. 7 shows an example of a figure in which the shape and size are the same from the vicinity of the face opening side 2 to the vicinity of the hood rear 3, but the main body 1 can be made to fit the hood size only on the face opening side 2 and the hood rear 3 can be made to a different size, and it can be made to fit the size inside the hood or have no visor 7 or a modified type. It is not limited to Fig. 7 in which the frame is unfolded, and various modifications can be made based on the spirit of the present invention and are not excluded from the present invention. In addition, the position, size, length, and shape of the support 10 and the head contact part 6 are not limited to Fig. 7, and various modifications can be made based on the spirit of the present invention and are not excluded from the present invention.
If the material can be easily cut, it can be cut to fit the size of the hood the customer has, or cuts can be made to bend the shoulder-nearby attachment part 4 to fit the shape of the shoulder, and the shape of the visor 7 can be changed by the customer's processing. Here, in Fig. 7, a simple support 10 with two slits is shown, but any shape can be used as long as it can be curved inward. Therefore, the main body 1 can be a basic rectangular shape or a modified shape, and the shape of the shoulder-nearby attachment part 4 is not limited to that shown in Fig. 7, and can be variously changed based on the spirit of the present invention and is not excluded from the present invention.

Fig. 8 is a perspective view of the third embodiment of the present invention equipped with a body position fixing device. The main body 1 supporting the hood has a shape with a visor 7, a support body 10, a head contact part 6, and a terminal part 12 which is a shoulder-nearby attachment part 4. The body 1 is bent toward the shoulder at the position of the hood boundary cut reference line 5, and a body position fixing device 8 is attached to pass the arms through the shoulder-nearby attachment part 4. The main body 1 can be manufactured and sold in various patterns according to customer needs, such as by simply placing it along the frame and contacting the head, by directly attaching it to clothing 9, or by making it removable. If the material is soft, it can be used without making a cut, and this is an example in which it can be firmly attached and does not slip.
The body position fixing device 8 is preferably made of, for example, a belt-like material such as TPU or rubber, but can be modified in various ways based on the purpose of the body position fixing device 8, and the shape is not limited to that shown in Fig. 8. In this example, the frame can be attached when necessary without directly attaching the main body 1 to the clothing 9, for example by gluing the frame to the hood, and this is also effective when used in environments where the body is likely to slip off, such as when it is windy.
In Fig. 8, the shape and size are the same from the vicinity of the face opening side 2 to the vicinity of the hood rear 3, but the main body 1 can be made to match the size of the hood or modified, for example, only the face opening side 2 can be fitted to the hood size and the hood rear 3 can be made a different size, and a material whose shape can be changed by customer processing can be used, and the method of attaching the body position fixing device 8 is not limited to Fig. 8, but can be changed in various ways based on the spirit of the present invention and is not excluded from the present invention. Also, the position of the head contact part 6 is not limited to Fig. 8, but can be changed in various ways based on the spirit of the present invention and is not excluded from the present invention.

Figure 9 is a perspective view of the embodiment 3 of the present invention when the body position fixing device 8 is used as a handle to hold clothing. A rectangular shape without a canopy is also possible, but Figure 9 shows a shape with a canopy 7 as an example. When clothing 9 is no longer needed, it can be held in the frame body 1 and carried without taking up too much space. The body position fixing device 8 makes it easier to carry and improves convenience. If it is rain gear, the wet side can be placed inside to prevent the surrounding area from getting wet, and it can also be hung by the body position fixing device 8 when not in use. The body position fixing device 8 is preferably made of, for example, a belt-shaped TPU or rubber, but various modifications are possible based on the purpose of the body position fixing device 8. In addition, this is an example where the inner curve of the part with two slits as the support 10 has been removed. Depending on the shape of the head contact part 6, the head contact part 6 can be made detachable, or movable by folding or rotating. Various configurations can be envisioned for the method of attaching the body position fixing device 8, and the position is not limited to that shown in FIG. 9. Various changes can be made based on the spirit of the present invention and are not excluded from the present invention.

FIG. 10 is a front view of an approximately inverted U-shape showing the fourth embodiment of the present invention. The main body 1 supporting the hood has a support 10 and a head contact portion 6, and the head contact portion 6 is processed in a shape that conforms to the head. Although a complete inverted U-shape may be used, the support 10 shown in bold lines is used to sandwich the periphery of the top of the main body 1 from inside and outside to form a T-shape, which is connected to the head contact portion 6, and is shown in an approximately inverted U-shape. Any material may be used, but it is preferably made of resin. The main body 1 is, for example, LDPE, and other materials such as PP and PET are also possible, but since it is something that is touched by hand, it is a flexible material that does not produce burrs and is not too hard, and a thickness of 0.05 mm to 1 mm is suitable. If it is too thin, it is difficult to maintain its shape and the effect may not be obtained due to the external environment, and if it is too thick, it may be difficult to process and the material may not be easily cut. It is preferable that the support 10 and the head contact portion 6 have a certain thickness of, for example, 1 mm or more and have strength.
In Fig. 10, the head contact part 6 is illustrated as a simple one having an inverted U-shape that fits the head, but any shape that fits the head may be used. The position of the head contact part 6 is not limited to that shown in Fig. 10, and may be modified in various ways based on the spirit of the present invention, such as providing two head contact parts 6 that are shifted by 90 degrees from the head contact part 6 shown in Fig. 10, or providing multiple head contact parts at different positions, and is not excluded from the present invention. Furthermore, the support 10 and the head contact part 6 may be rotatably attached to the main body 1, and may be configured to be parallel to the main body 1 for easy folding, or may be detachable. Furthermore, a shoulder-nearby attachment part 4 may be provided as shown in Fig. 6.
The effect is that the main body 1 can be processed to fit the shape and size of the hood by cutting the end portion 12 to fit the size of the hood that the customer has. If the material can be processed to fit the hood size of the customer, it can be used in a state closer to various hood shapes by changing the length and angle of the end portion 12 near the shoulder. If the end portion 12 is short and not attached near the shoulder, and does not need to be processed, it can be used as it is. In FIG. 10, the support 10 is shown in a straight line shape, but it is sufficient if it can be supported by keeping a distance from the main body 1, and the head contact portion 6 is also sufficient if it has a shape that can contact the head. In addition, the options for manufacturing and selling are expanded according to the needs of the customer, such as directly attaching it to the clothing 9 or making it detachable. Therefore, the main body 1, the head contact portion 6, and the support 10 are not limited to those in FIG. 10, and can be variously modified based on the spirit of the present invention and are not excluded from the present invention.
Here, the "intended for integral use" of the present invention will be explained. Even if the support 10 and the head contact part 6 are provided separately, they are to be used together as an integral part, and the support 10 and the head contact part 6 may be sold separately as the frame of the present invention, or may be labeled as to be glued by the customer or to be glued by the customer for use, and all of these are sold as parts and used as the frame of the present invention as unfinished materials. Therefore, even if the main body 1 is not integral with the support 10 and the head contact part 6, and does not have commonality with the main body 1 in terms of shape, material, etc., the head contact part 6 is provided as a separate part intended for integral use with the main body, and the head contact part 6 can be modified in various ways based on the spirit of the present invention, and a separate member is not excluded from the present invention.
