Description

The This invention relates to the field of universal size caps, and more particularly a cap in universal size, at the gusset of the cap head of double-walled Kulierware with a Elongation in the weft direction made of more than 50%, so that the cap head a high Ventilation effect, a high flexibility and a desired tightness owns and for the user is comfortable to wear.

A Such cap is intended by users whose head circumference is about 12 cm differs, be worn. The cap in universal size points a sweatband made of an elastic woven fabric with an elongation in the weft direction of more than 65% and elastic recovery capacity of more than 95% is made, so the problem is a low elastic shape recovery in one of such Kulierware produced cap head almost completely eliminated becomes.

As are well known in the art, are caps in universal size or Caps of the type for fit all head sizes, so that a cap with reference size of users, their head circumference within a certain, more or less large area is, is usable.

Conventional caps in universal size are known for example from Korean Patent No. 92 219 or from US 5 715 540 A known. The caps in universal size include the cap head 6 Gussets made individually from an elastic woven fabric made by weaving polyurethane monofilament yarns such as spandex yarns as a weft yarn and non-stretchable yarns as a warp yarn. Furthermore, the sweatband for the above-mentioned universal size caps is made of an elastic woven fabric made by weaving polyurethane monofilament yarns as a weft and non-stretchable yarns as a warp yarn in the same manner as described above for the capping head.

at such a conventional one Cap in universal size However, the problem is that the elastic Woven fabric of the cap head an undesirably low elongation and a has low elastic recovery capacity since the fabric by linking the stretchable wefts with the non-stretchable warp threads will be produced. Due to the low elongation and the low elastic shape recovery capability is the above-mentioned cap in universal size, the produced in a single reference size becomes usable only by users whose head circumferences are around less than 6 cm, or more precisely 6.35 cm (about 2.5 inches). conventional Caps with small universal size (54 cm) can of users with head circumferences from 54 to 60 cm, caps in medium size (60 cm) can be used by Users with head circumferences from 60 to 66 cm and caps in large universal size 66 cm can of users with head circumferences from 66 to 72 cm. Therefore, users with head circumferences in the Range from 54 to 72 cm choose one of three types of caps in universal size. Thereby becomes the use of conventional Limited caps in universal size. There Furthermore, the elastic woven fabric of the cap head effective elongation from 25% ± 2% own, the cap head of the conventional caps in universal size is something stiff and prevents yourself the user feels comfortable, when he wears the cap.

The sweatband the above caps in universal size is off an elastic woven fabric using polyurethane monofilament yarns as a stretchable weft produced. The sweatband can not be desired Elongation of more than 65% and no desirable elastic recovery capacity of more than 95%, but both are necessary to achieve the desired flexibility and flexibility desirable Haptics of sweatbands too to reach.

The usual Caps are in universal size so that they of users with head circumferences in the range of 54 to 72 cm are usable. A recently published Research report, however, reveals that such universal sized caps are primarily of Persons with head circumferences in the range of 45 to 69 cm, d. H. of children, adolescents and Adult wear. The conventional caps in universal size, the Claim of these main users of recent years did not fully meet.

From the US 3,337,877 For example, a cap of universal size is known, in which the lateral and rear gussets of the cap head are made individually from a foam on both surfaces of which a tricot warp knit fabric is attached using an adhesive. This inverted-size cap has been originally designed to be stretchable horizontally on the side and back gussets of the cap head, and because of the cushioning effect of the foam, a user finds the cap comfortable.

However, since the tricot knit fabric is attached to both surfaces by means of an adhesive, the cap head does not have the desired elongation. Elongation and elasticity again Manufacturing capacity of the above cap are determined solely by the foam, so that the use of a single reference cap is limited. Therefore, manufacturers need to produce caps with multiple reference sizes to meet the needs of users with different head circumferences. Furthermore, the front portion of the cap head, which corresponds to the forehead of a user, no sweatband, so that the cap does not effectively and quickly absorbs the sweat from the forehead of a user and removes. The cap therefore allows sweat to flow down the user's forehead across his face, which is uncomfortable for the user wearing the cap. Another problem of the above-mentioned universal size cap is that the elastic shape recovery capability of the cap head at the side and rear gussets made from the foam covered with the tricot warp knit fabric is significantly reduced when the cap is extended for a longer period Time period is used. In this case, it is not possible that the cap sits comfortably on the head of a user, so that the cap loses its desired firmness.

Furthermore, are off EP 0 639 338 A2 Caps are known, which consist of gussets and a sweatband whose textile fabrics are elastic and extensible in the direction of the head circumference, wherein the extensibility within 6.35 cm respect. The standard size of 60 cm ± 3 cm in the preferred embodiment.

Out DE 693 22 380 T2 knitwear are known which consist of non-elastic yarn and a small proportion by weight of elastic combination yarns. These combination yarns may have an elastic elongation of 10 to 70%, but no details are given about the specific extensibility in the weft direction.

DE 1 535 647 B indicates an elastic fabric with a stretchability of 50 to 80% in the warp direction. About a distensibility in the weft direction no information is given.

Of the Invention has for its object to provide a cap in universal size, which does not possess the above-mentioned problems of the prior art.

These Task is solved by a cap in universal size Claim 1. Further developments of the invention are specified in the dependent claims.

at the cap according to the invention are in universal size the cap head gussets from double-sided Weft with an elongation in the weft direction of more than 50% manufactured, wherein the cap has a sweat band, which consists of a elastic woven fabric which is latex-coated by weaving Yarn as weft and conventional, non-stretchable yarns is produced as a warp and an elongation in the weft direction of more than 65% as well as an elastic shape recovery capacity of has more than 95%. A universal size reference cap of the invention may be of persons with head circumferences, which differ within a range of 12 cm used become. Therefore, you can the main users with head circumferences from 45 cm (children) to 69 cm (adult) one of two reference caps in universal size, d. H. select small caps (45 cm) and medium caps (57 cm). There the cap head of this cap in universal size is made of wrought goods, the soft and evenly stretchable is, the cap according to the invention suitable and convenient to put on, the user the cap feels comfortable. The double-faced weft of the cap head the invention has meshes with a large number of ventilation pores, the diffusion of moisture from inside the cap head into the atmosphere serve. Therefore, the universal cap of the invention has no conventional eyelets and Moisture such as sweat through the ventilation pores the mesh effectively and quickly diffuse into the atmosphere.

The sweatband of the invention with high elastic recovery capability the low elastic recovery capacity of the Cap head made of a woven fabric with non-stretchable yarns is produced as a warp thread, in an effective manner.

In order for the cap head of the full-size cap of the invention to have the desired stretch in weft and warp direction, desired elastic shape recovery capability, and desired flexibility, the cap head of the invention can be made from double-faced weft made using polyurethane coated yarns. In this case, the cap head of the universal size cap has a vertical elongation of more than 25% and a horizontal elongation of more than 60%. A conventional weft, which uses non-stretchable yarns, has a single weft elongation in the weft direction in the range of 30 to 50%, which is produced by the stretchable stitches which are formed continuously in the weft direction of the weft. Therefore, the weft, which uses non-stretchable yarns, is not stretchable in a vertical direction. Further, when the cap head of the full size cap of the invention is made from double weft fabric using conventional non-stretchable yarns, the elastic shape is restored Capacity of the cap head not higher than 80%. In order to compensate for the low elastic recovery capacity of the cap head of this cap in universal size, the cap head is provided with a sweatband having a high elastic recovery capacity of more than 95%.

There the cap head of the cap according to the invention in universal size from double-sided weft goods is made, the cap head has stitches with a large number of ventilation pores, the diffusion of moisture from inside the cap head into the atmosphere serve. Therefore, the inventive cap in universal size has no conventional eyelets and Moisture such as sweat can be effective and fast through the ventilation pores the mesh in the atmosphere diffuse.

This is according to the invention sweatband the cap in universal size from one elastic woven fabric using latex coated Yarns as weft produced. Because the latex coated yarns are unlike usual With polyurethane coated yarns a high elongation and a high have elastic shape recovery ability, the sweatband according to the invention is softer and more flexible and has a porous structure, which makes it a great sweat fast and can effectively absorb and diffuse. Because beyond that the sweatband according to the invention possesses high elastic shape recovery ability, it compensates the low elastic recovery capacity of the Cap head made of wicks using non-stretchy yarns as warp is manufactured in an effective manner.

If the cap head of the invention of doppelflächiger Kulierware using of polyurethane coated yarns he an elongation in the weft direction of more than 25% and a horizontal elongation of more than 60%. In this case, the cap head of the cap is more stable and fits more comfortably on the head of a user. In addition, the elastic shape recovery capability of this Cap head opposite a cap head made of wedge using non-stretchable Yarns produced is significantly increased.

According to the invention, the universal size cap may be designed to have a conventional size adjustment means in the middle of the lower edge of the cap head, as in Figs 2 and 3 is shown. Alternatively, the universal size cap of the present invention has no such size adjusting means as in FIG 1 is shown.

Of the Cap head of the cap according to the invention in universal size can be made of double pile weft. In this case, the Soft cap in universal size to handle and has a high heat insulating effect, so that they preferably can be used in winter or in cold climates.

Further Features and advantages of the invention will become apparent upon reading the following description of preferred embodiments, referring to the drawing Refers; show it:

1 a bottom perspective view of a cap in a universal size according to a first embodiment of the invention, which has no size adjustment;

2 a bottom view of a cap in a universal size according to a second embodiment of the invention, which is provided with a size adjustment, which consists of a ribbon and a perforated tape in the round neckline at the lower edge at the rear end of the cap head; and

3 a bottom view of a cap in a universal size according to a third embodiment of the invention, which is provided with a size adjustment, which consists of a band and a buckle in the round neckline at the lower edge of the cap head.

1 Figure 11 is a bottom perspective view of a full-size cap according to a first embodiment of the invention having no sizing means. The universal cap of the present invention is such that it can be freely used by users with head circumferences of 45 to 69 cm. It is manufactured as a cap in two reference sizes, ie a small size cap (45 cm) and a medium size cap (57 cm) and can meet the requirements of users who have head circumferences of 45 to 69 cm. In the cap according to the invention, the lower edge of the cap head is through the two ends 7 and 8th a cap screen A divided into two parts, ie a rear portion and a front portion. When t is the reference size of a cap in a universal size, r is the peripheral length of the rear portion, and f is the circumferential length of the front portion, the universal size cap of the invention is designed to satisfy the following conditions: 3/5 × t ≤ r and t = r + f.

In the cap according to the invention are in universal size the cap head C and the sweatband B designed so that they in the rear section are strongly elastic.

repeated Experiments showed the following results. If a small cap according to the invention in universal size with t = 45 cm in their rear section by a maximum of 90% of an elongation is stretched by 50%, the cap is regardless of a restoring force, on the head of a user due to the elastic shape recovery capability of the user rear section acts for the User not uncomfortable. Therefore, the circumferential length r of the rear portion becomes the cap as follows calculated: r = 45 cm × 3/5 = 27 cm. When the rear section (r = 27 cm) by 90% or less the stretch of 50% is stretched, the back section becomes around 12.15 cm (= 27 cm x 0.5 x 0.9) stretched.

If a mean size universal cap of the invention with t = 57 cm in the same way as described above for the small cap is stretched, the circumferential length becomes r of the rear portion of the cap calculated as follows: r = 57 cm x 3/5 = 34.2 cm, with the rear section stretched by 15.3 cm (= 34.2 cm x 0.5 x 0.9) becomes.

If the cap heads the caps of the invention in universal size from double-sided weft goods using non-stretchable yarns as warp yarns in two reference sizes of 45 cm and 57 cm, these universal size caps meet the requirements from users with different head circumferences ranging from 45 to 69 cm almost completely. In practice, the Medium size overall cap that a reference size of 57 cm has, as well the requirement of a user with a head circumference of 72 cm, since the stretched size of the cap 72 cm (57 cm + 15 cm).

The sweatband the cap according to the invention in universal size an elongation in the weft direction of more than 65%, so that the sweatband the mentioned above Conditions completely Fulfills.

The cap according to the invention can also be provided with a size adjustment device, as in FIGS 2 and 3 is shown. In the cap in universal size after 2 is at the lower edge of the cap head C a cutout d with a length of 10 cm and a width of 4 cm formed. At the first edge 9 of the section d at one of its ends is a perforated belt e with a plurality of regularly spaced plug holes 11 , which are arranged axially on the tape, sewn on. To the second edge 10 of section d is a tape g with several regularly spaced Einpaßvorsprüngen 12 , which are arranged axially on the tape, sewn on. A user can therefore adjust the size of the cap approximately, by conventionally the Einpaßvorsprünge 12 the band suitable in the Einpaßlöcher 11 the perforated tape is inserted.

In the above universal-sized cap, the final size adjustment which can not be achieved by the size adjustment straps because of the distances between the fitting holes and the fitting protrusions, by both the cap head and the sweat band, is in portions between the first end 7 the cap screen and the first edge 9 of the section on the one hand and between the second end 8th the cap screen and the second edge 10 the section is provided on the other hand, reached automatically and precisely.

For example, if the cap in universal size after 2 has a reference size of 57 cm and is such that it can be used by users with head circumferences differing by approximately 12 cm, the primary size setting in the range of the first 6 cm (57 cm to 63 cm) is determined by the size adjustment straps seven Einpaßlöchern formed in the perforated belt and spaced at regular intervals of 1 cm, achieved. The final sizing within the remaining 6 cm (12 cm to 6 cm) will be through both the cap head and the sweatband that is in the sections between the first end 7 the cap screen and the first edge 9 of the clipping and between the second end 8th the cap screen and the second edge 10 of the cutout are achieved automatically and precisely. Because the circumferential length of the section between the first end 7 the cap screen and the first edge 9 of the cutout is 12.1 cm (= 34.2 cm / 2 - 10 cm / 2), the entire circumferential length of the two sections is between the first end 7 the cap screen and the first edge 9 of the clipping and between the second end 8th the cap screen and the second edge 10 of the section 24.2 cm (12.1 cm × 2). Therefore, when the rear portion of the cap is stretched by 90% of the elongation of 50%, the back portion is stretched 10.89 cm (24.2 cm x 0.5 x 0.9). The rear portion is therefore stretchable within a range of 10.89 cm so that the final sizing within the remaining 6 cm (12 cm to 6 cm) is achieved precisely by the rear portion. The universal size cap according to the invention, which has a reference size of 57 cm and is provided with the size adjustment straps, except for users who have a head circumference of 69 cm (which is 12 cm larger than the reference size of 57 cm), of a Users with a head circumference of 73 cm (which is 16 cm larger than the reference size of 57 cm) can be used. The final precise size adjustment within 1 cm, ie within the distances between the fitting holes, is determined by the sections with the total circumferential length, ie 12.1 cm + 12.1 cm, achieved automatically.

In the cap in universal size after 3 is at the first edge 9 of the section d a buckle I sewed, while to the second edge 10 of the section d a band h is sewn.

The size adjustment of this universal size cap is achieved as follows. The primary sizing within the first 6 cm (57 cm to 63 cm) is achieved by the strap and buckle, while the final sizing within the remaining 6 cm (12 cm to 6 cm) is through the sections of total circumference length, ie 12.1 cm + 12.1 cm, in the same way as for the cap 2 described is achieved automatically and precisely.

If the cap in the universal size of the 2 and 3 With the size setting device designed to have a reference size of 63 cm instead of 57 cm, the size adjustment can be achieved within a range of 12 cm as follows.

If the cap in the universal size of the 2 and 3 is designed so that it has a reference size of 63 cm with open size adjustment, the size of the cap can be reduced within a range of 6 cm. Further, the final sizing within the remaining 6 cm is achieved automatically and precisely by the elasticity of both the cap head and the sweatband at the portions of the total perimeter length, ie 12.1 cm + 12.1 cm.

In summary, the size of the cap in universal size after 2 or 3 adjusted as desired by both the size adjustment and by the elasticity of the cap head and the sweatband.

One better understanding The invention can be understood from the following examples, which illustrate, but not the restriction serve the invention, be obtained.

example 1

To get a cap in universal size without size adjustment as in 1 As shown, a double-faced weft was made using spun yarns of 65% by weight of polyester fibers and 35% by weight of cotton by a circular-felting process. The resulting weft was in six gussets 1 to 6 subdivided before the six gussets were assembled by a conventional sewing process using sewing threads to a cap head C.

The Elongation in the weft direction the above crop was 50%.

Farther became a sweatband B for the cap as follows produced. An elastic woven fabric with an elongation in the weft direction of 65% and elastic recovery capacity of 95% and a width of 3 cm was covered by a ribbon loom Use of latex coated yarns as weft and of Spunfiber yarns produced as warp thread. In this case was the latex-coated yarn used as weft under Using a latex monofilament yarn with 70d as the core yarn and one Polyester multifilament yarn made with 150d as coating yarn. The spun yarn used as the warp yarn consisted of 65% by weight of polyester fibers and 35% by weight of cotton. The desired sweatband B was made from the resulting elastic woven fabric.

In the cap was in universal size the circumferential length both the lower edge of the cap head and the sweatband 57 cm. The lower edge of the sweatband B was at the lower edge sewn on the cap head C. Furthermore, the cap screen A has been attached to the lower edge of the cap head sewn. In this case, the circumferential length r of the rear portion was Cap head 34.2 cm (3/5 × 57 cm) while the circumferential length f of the front portion of the cap head was 22.8 cm.

The Universal size cap For example, users with head circumference sizes ranging from 57 cm to 72 cm can be used.

The The above-described cap in universal size is preferably in the summer used.

Example 2

The process of the example 1 was repeated in the production of a double-faced weft in place of the spun yarns with 65% by weight of polyester fibers and 35% by weight of cotton using spun yarns containing 30% by weight of wool and 70% by weight of acrylic fibers.

The Universal size cap according to this example is preferably worn in winter or in a cold climate.

Example 3

The process of Example 1 was repeated in the manufacture of the cap head using a double pile weft instead of the double-faced weft. The universal size cap of this example has on both faces of the cap head a cut pile, so that the cap touches soft and has a high heat insulating effect. This universal size cap is therefore preferably used in winter or in cold climates.

Example 4

Of the Process of Example 1 was obtained by the preparation of the double-faced weft Cap head using spandex coated Yarn using a 70d spandex monofilament yarn as Core yarn and a polyester multifilament yarn with 150d as coating yarn was prepared, repeated. The cap head of this cap had a stretch in the weft direction of 60%, an elongation in the warp direction of 30% and an elastic Shape recovery from 90%. The tightness of the cap head of this cap in universal size was better as those in Examples 1 and 2.

Example 5

Of the Process of Example 1 was repeated by making a section d in the middle the rear portion of the cap head with a size adjustment was provided, a perforated tape e and a tape g, the neckline were included.

In this cap, the cutout d having a length of 10 cm and a width of 4 cm was formed in the middle of the lower edge of the rear portion of the cap head C. The perforated tape e, the more regularly spaced Einpaßlöcher 11 which had been axially arranged on the belt was at the first edge 9 sewn of the section d at one of its ends. The tape g with several regularly spaced Einpaßvorsprüngen 12 that were axially spaced on the belt became the second edge 10 Sewn on the detail d. The sizing means allows a user to adjust the size of the cap mainly and approximately by making the fitting projections 12 the band with the Einpaßlöchern 11 the perforated belt in a conventional manner suitable engages.

In the above universal-sized cap, the final size adjustment, which is not achieved by the size adjustment straps due to the distances between the fitting holes and fitting protrusions, by both the cap head and the sweat band, in the portions between the first end 7 the cap screen and the first edge 9 of the clipping and between the second end 8th the cap screen and the second edge 10 of the cutout is achieved automatically and accurately.

For example, if the cap in universal size after 2 has a reference size of 57 cm and is designed to be used by users with head circumferences that differ by about 12 cm, the primary size setting within the first 6 cm (57 cm to 63 cm) is determined by the size adjustment straps seven Einpaßlöchern formed in the perforated belt and spaced at regular intervals of 1 cm, reached. The final size adjustment within the remaining 6 cm (12 cm to 6 cm) will be through both the cap head and the sweatband, which will be at the sections between the first end 7 the cap screen and the first edge 9 of the clipping and between the second end 8th the cap screen and the second edge 10 of the cutout is achieved automatically and accurately. Because the circumferential length of the section between the first end 7 the cap screen and the first edge 9 of the cutout is 12.1 cm (34.2 cm / 2 - 10 cm / 2), the total circumferential length of the two sections is between the first end 7 the cap screen and the first edge 9 of the clipping and between the second end 8th the cap screen and the second edge 10 of the section 24.2 cm (12.1 cm × 2). Therefore, when the rear portion of the cap is stretched by 90% of the elongation of 50%, the back portion is stretched 10.89 cm (24.2 cm x 0.5 x 0.9). The back portion is thus stretchable within a range of 10.89 cm so that the final sizing within the remaining 6 cm (12 cm to 6 cm) is achieved precisely by the back portion. The universal size cap according to the invention, which has a reference size of 57 cm and is provided with the size adjustment bands, not only by users with head circumferences of 69 cm (by 12 cm larger than the reference size of 57 cm), but also by a user with a head circumference of 73 cm (16 cm larger than the reference size of 57 cm) can be used.

Example 6

Of the Process of Example 5 was repeated using a buckle I and a band h instead of the perforated tape e and the tape g at the section d of the Cap head were attached.

• 1. Da die Zwickel des Kappenkopfes aus doppelflächiger Kulierware mit einer Dehnung in Schußrichtung von mehr als 50 % hergestellt sind, be seitigt der Kappenkopf das Problem eines aus einem elastischen Webstoff hergestellten herkömmlichen Kappenkopfes nahezu vollständig. Das heißt, daß die dehnbaren Schußfäden mit nicht dehnbaren Kettfäden im elastischen Webstoff des herkömmlichen Kappenkopfes verknüpft sind, so daß die Dehnung des Kappenkopfes, die 25 % ± 2 % beträgt, erheblich reduziert wird. Dieses Problem wird jedoch durch den erfindungsgemäßen Kappenkopf, der aus der doppelflächigen Kulierware hergestellt ist, nahezu vollständig beseitigt.
• 2. Der Kappenkopf einer herkömmlichen Kappe in Universalgröße ist mit vier oder mehr Ösen für die Diffusion von Feuchtigkeit wie etwa Schweiß aus dem Inneren der Kappe in die Atmosphäre versehen. Die erfindungsgemäße Kappe ist hingegen aus doppelflächiger Kulierware mit Maschen mit einer großen Anzahl von Belüftungsporen, die der Diffusion von Feuchtigkeit aus dem Inneren des Kappenkopfes in die Atmosphäre dienen, hergestellt. Daher besitzt die erfindungsgemäße Kappe in Universalgröße keine derartigen Ösen, so daß der Produktionsprozeß vereinfacht werden kann und die Produktionskosten dieser Kappe in Universalgröße reduziert werden können.
• 3. Da der Kappenkopf aus einer doppelflächigen Kulierware hergestellt ist, fühlt sich der Kappenkopf für den Benutzer weich und bequem an, wenn er die Kappe trägt, was im Gegensatz zu einem herkömmlichen Kappenkopf aus einem elastischen Webstoff steht.

Daher ist die erfindungsgemäße Kappe in Universalgröße für Benutzer bequemer, da die Benutzer nicht wie bisher aus drei Referenzkappen, d. h. aus kleinen Kappen, mittleren Kappen und großen Kappen, wählen müssen. Die erfindungsgemäße Kappe in Universalgröße ist für Hersteller und Verkäufer der Kappen günstiger, da die erfindungsgemäße Kappe den Herstellern und Verkäufern erlaubt, anstelle der bisherigen drei Referenzkappen lediglich zwei Referenzkappen herstellen bzw. anbieten zu müssen.

As described above, the invention provides a cap of universal size in which the gussets of the cap head are made of double-faced weft with a stretch in the weft direction of more than 50% and in which the sweatband of an elastic woven fabric with an elongation in the weft direction of more than 65% and an elastic recovery capacity of more than 95%. The universal size cap according to the invention has at least the following five advantages.

• 1. Since the gussets of the cap head are made of double-surfaced Kulierware with an elongation in the weft direction of more than 50%, be the cap head, the problem of a made of an elastic woven fabric conventional cap head almost completely. That is, the extensible wefts are associated with non-stretchable warp yarns in the elastic woven fabric of the conventional cap head, so that the elongation of the cap head, which is 25% ± 2%, is significantly reduced. However, this problem is almost completely eliminated by the cap head according to the invention, which is made from the double-faced weft product.
• 2. The cap head of a conventional, universal size cap is provided with four or more eyelets for the diffusion of moisture, such as perspiration from within the cap to the atmosphere. The cap according to the invention, on the other hand, is made of double-stitched weft mesh with a large number of ventilation pores which serve to diffuse moisture from the interior of the cap head to the atmosphere. Therefore, the universal cap of the present invention has no such eyelets, so that the production process can be simplified and the production cost of this cap in a universal size can be reduced.
• 3. Since the cap head is made from a double-faced weft, the cap head feels soft and comfortable to the user when wearing the cap, which in contrast to a conventional cap head is made of an elastic woven fabric. The cap head of the universal cap of the present invention can be suitably placed on the head of a user, so that the requirement of users, especially young people who desire appearance with taut caps, is met.
• 4. The sweatband of the universal size cap of the present invention is made of an elastic woven fabric having an elongation in the weft direction of more than 65% and an elastic recovery capacity of more than 95%. When the cap top of the cap is stretched approximately 12 cm, the sweatband is stretched by approximately 45% (= 12 cm / (3/5 x 45 cm) = 0.45). The sweatband of the invention thus feels soft and comfortable to the user wearing the cap. The sweatband according to the invention has a large number of ventilation pores, so that the sweatband can absorb sweat effectively and quickly and absorb an increased amount of perspiration. In particular, although the cap head of the invention is made from double-structured wicks with a soft structure that is almost completely devoid of any automorphism, the sweatband particularly enhances the soft structure of the cap head and achieves a desired automorphism of the full-size cap. Furthermore, the high elastic recovery tape of the sweatband effectively compensates for the low elastic recovery performance of the cap head, the warp threads of which are non-stretchable yarns.
• 5. Since the rear portion of both the cap head and the sweatband of the inventive cap is stably stretchable by about 12 cm, the primary users with head circumference of 45 cm (children) to 69 cm (adult) can use two universal size reference caps ie choose from small caps (45 cm) and medium caps (57 cm). Therefore, the universal size cap of the present invention is more convenient for users because users do not have to choose from three reference caps, ie, small caps, middle caps, and large caps as before. The cap according to the invention in universal size is cheaper for manufacturers and sellers of the caps, since the cap according to the invention allows manufacturers and sellers to produce or offer only two reference caps instead of the previous three reference caps.

Even though In order to explain preferred embodiments the invention have been described, the skilled person can various Modifications, additions and substitute, without departing from the spirit and scope of the invention as defined by the appended claims.
