A face shield and head covering combination is provided. The head covering comprises a body and an attachment element. The body defines a head opening configured to receive a user's head therethrough. The attachment element is coupled to the body and configured to couple to a face shield positionable on the user's face. The attachment element is configured to transition between a first position on the body and a second position on the body, wherein the second position is spaced from the first position.

A neck shade accessory for baseball caps has a support band, at least one attachment clip, and a sunshade. The support band is adjustable in length and curved to conform to the rear and sides of a baseball cap. Each attachment clip is secured to the support band and clips onto the brim of the baseball cap. The sunshade is terminally attached along the support band and hangs from the rear of the baseball cap to protect a wearer's neck and shoulders from exposure to the sun. A shade attachment of the sunshade may further be incorporated to secure the sunshade to an adjustment band positioned at the rear of the baseball cap.

This invention is directed to a wearable air cleaner where an air cleaning device is incorporated into a hat. The air cleaning device includes a fan unit to pull air through the device. The air cleaning device also includes ultraviolet light to disinfect the air and pushes the disinfected air in front of the wearer for breathing.

The mask with ultraviolet disinfection of inhaled and exhaled air in the form of a filtering-purification protective front surface contains a removable unit, the inner surface of which is covered with an ultraviolet radiation source with a pluggable independent power supply system. The filtering-purification unit has rows of meshes composed of light guides of ultraviolet radiation spectrum with tapped radiation in each cell of the mesh, and a source is brought to the meshes. The mask itself can be made of a mesh composed of light guides. The mask in the form of a shield in front of the face is represented by a mesh composed of light guides in front of the face or along the entire perimeter. The mask along the bottom part of the headband, above the face, is provided with a LED strip of ultraviolet radiation spectrum, radiation being directed downward, the sector of directed radiation being adjustable. The headgear can serve as a headband. Also, the LED radiation strip is attached to the eyeglasses along the perimeter of the spectacle frame.

A shield attachment can include a brim slot and a face shield. The brim slot may be configured to receive the brim to secure the face shield attachment to the headwear. The face shield may be positioned below the brim slot, and the face shield can be configured to extend around a face of the user while the headwear is worn.

Methods and systems are provided for a face shield capable of sliding onto a brim of a head covering. The face shield may have coatings providing anti-microbial protection, UV protection, fire protection, or combinations thereof. The face shield may be pre-designed for a specific head covering, or may be adaptable to take the correct shape upon mounting to the head covering. The face shield may also include a snap-on strip that is releasably connectable to a substantially transparent sheet of material forming the face shield and the snap-on strip may be configured to impart a shape to the substantially transparent sheet of material when connected thereto.

A method for producing a face shield includes cutting a body of the face shield from a flat sheet of transparent plastic and cutting a curved attachment slot into the body. It includes placing the body onto a horizontally arranged elongated convex mold with a central axis of the body being aligned with a ridge line of the mold and placing the body, on the mold, into an oven. There, the body deforms and assumes an arcuate shape of the mold. The body is allowed to cool down and later removed from the mold. The face shield has a body with an arcuate vertical cross-sectional shape which is smooth without edges. The curved attachment slot serves to attach the face shield to a visor of a baseball cap where it can hold on by a plurality of narrowings formed in the attachment slot.

A wearable physical shield is disclosed. The shield includes a visor; a flexible extension coupled to the visor, and a collar coupled to the flexible extension. The visor can include a visor cavity, and the flexible extension can include a flexible extension cavity, wherein a seal is located between the visor cavity and the flexible extension cavity, such that the seal at least partially restricts movement of air between the visor cavity and the flexible extension cavity. The collar is configured to be placed around a neck of a person with a single hand for moving the collar from an open position to a closed position, where first and second arms of the collar are closed around the neck of the person.
