Draw type sun shield cap

Abstract

A draw type sun shield cap includes: a) a visor component being an elongated member in the general shape of a cap visor with a central area and opposing back segments; and, b) a crown component having a shape adapted to cover the central portion of a human head with a front, a back and opposing sides, the crown component being connected to the visor component at its front; c) a draw line connecting the back of the crown component to each of the opposing back segments of the visor component; wherein the sun shield cap has a first position wherein the draw line is undrawn and loose and wherein the sun shield cap is flat and the sun shield cap has a second position wherein the draw line is drawn tightly so as to bring the back of the crown component and each of the opposing back segments of the visor component to one another to create a three dimensional cap with side cross ventilation. Preferably, both the visor component and the crown component are created from a single piece of material.

What is claimed is: 
     
         1 . A draw type sun shield cap, which comprises:
 a) a visor component being an elongated member in the general shape of a cap visor with a central area and opposing back segments; and,   b) a crown component having a shape adapted to cover the central portion of a human head with a front, a back and opposing sides, said crown component being connected to said visor component at its front;   c) a draw line connecting said back of said crown component to each of said opposing back segments of said visor component;   wherein said sun shield cap has a first position wherein said draw line is undrawn and loose and wherein said sun shield cap is flat and said sun shield cap has a second position wherein said draw line is drawn tightly so as to bring said back of said crown component and each of said opposing back segments of said visor component to one another to create a three dimensional cap with side cross ventilation.   
     
     
         2 . The draw type sun shield cap of  claim 1  wherein said draw line includes a locking component connected thereto so as to lock said draw line when said sun shield cap is in its second position. 
     
     
         3 . The draw type sun shield cap of  claim 1  wherein said visor component is curvilinear. 
     
     
         4 . The draw type sun shield cap of  claim 1  wherein at least one of said visor component and said crown component includes size adjustment means so as to provide adjustability for at least two different cap sizes. 
     
     
         5 . The draw type sun shield cap of  claim 4  wherein said size adjustment means includes a plurality of orifices positioned selectively for positioning or re-positioning of said draw line to create different cap sizes. 
     
     
         6 . The draw type sun shield cap of  claim 1  wherein at least 70% of the peripheral edge of said visor component is not connected to said crown component. 
     
     
         7 . The draw type sun shield cap of  claim 1  wherein said visor component and said crown component are a single sheet of material. 
     
     
         8 . The draw type sun shield cap of  claim 1  wherein said visor component and said crown component are connected at two locations with an open space therebetween. 
     
     
         9 . The draw type sun shield cap of  claim 2  wherein said locking component is a spring loaded, push button locking component. 
     
     
         10 . The draw type sun shield cap of  claim 1  wherein said draw line is removably connected to at least one of said visor component and said crown component. 
     
     
         11 . A biodegradable, draw type sun shield cap, which comprises:
 a) a visor component being an elongated member in the general shape of a cap visor with a central area and opposing back segments; and,   b) a crown component having a shape adapted to cover the central portion of a human head with a front, a back and opposing sides, said crown component being connected to said visor component at its front;   c) a draw line connecting said back of said crown component to each of said opposing back segments of said visor component;   wherein said sun shield cap has a first position wherein said draw line is undrawn and loose and wherein said sun shield cap is flat and said sun shield cap has a second position wherein said draw line is drawn tightly so as to bring said back of said crown component and each of said opposing back segments of said visor component to one another to create a three dimensional cap with side cross ventilation.   
     
     
         12 . The draw type sun shield cap of  claim 11  wherein said draw line includes a locking component connected thereto so as to lock said draw line when said sun shield cap is in its second position. 
     
     
         13 . The draw type sun shield cap of  claim 11  wherein said visor component is curvilinear. 
     
     
         14 . The draw type sun shield cap of  claim 11  wherein at least one of said visor component and said crown component includes size adjustment means so as to provide adjustability for at least two different cap sizes. 
     
     
         15 . The draw type sun shield cap of  claim 14  wherein said size adjustment means includes a plurality of orifices positioned selectively for positioning or re-positioning of said draw line to create different cap sizes. 
     
     
         16 . The draw type sun shield cap of  claim 11  wherein at least 70% of the peripheral edge of said visor component is not connected to said crown component. 
     
     
         17 . The draw type sun shield cap of  claim 11  wherein said visor component and said crown component are a single sheet of material. 
     
     
         18 . The draw type sun shield cap of  claim 11  wherein said visor component and said crown component are connected at two locations with an open space therebetween. 
     
     
         19 . The draw type sun shield cap of  claim 12  wherein said locking component is a spring loaded, push button locking component. 
     
     
         20 . The draw type sun shield cap of  claim 11  wherein said draw line is removably connected to at least one of said visor component and said crown component.
