An adjustable hat bill having a first link and a second link. The first link has a first link male member and defines a first link female receiving area. The second link defines a second link female receiving area. The first link male member is located within the second link female area, and the first link and the second link are capable of some rotation in relation to each other to selectively adjust the shape of the hat bill.

A sun screen apparatus which includes apparatus for mounting on the visor of a so-called baseball cap that includes a planar translucent member carried on the apparatus for mounting that allows movement of the planar member between horizontal and vertical positions.

Baseball caps to be worn on a person's head are provided. According to one embodiment, a baseball cap includes a dome configured to be placed on the wearer's head, wherein the dome includes one or more panels and one or more cooling channels. The baseball cap also includes a hub positioned at a top of the dome. The hub comprises a central cavity and one or more conduits in gaseous communication with the one or more cooling channels of the dome. A coolant output port is provided in gaseous communication with the central cavity of the hub. The coolant output port is configured to supply a coolant gas to the one or more cooling channels of the dome via the central cavity of the hub.

A convertible hat is disclosed. The convertible hat of the present invention comprises: a band (110) coupled to the head of a user; and a brim (120) provided horizontally in a certain area on the front surface of the band (110) to block sunlight. Furthermore, the convertible hat of the present invention preferably includes a pair of shape transformation crowns (130, 130a) that each have one end coupled to the band (110) and the other end spread out over the band (110), and are positioned in either a cap position in which the crowns cover the head of the user, or a sun cap position in which the crowns extend from the side surface of the brim (120) to increase the sun blocking area of the brim (120). Accordingly, a single convertible hat can be used by transforming into the two forms of a cap and a sun cap.

The present invention relates generally to a cap with an exchangeable visor, and more specifically to a cap with an exchangeable visor, the cap having a cap body configured to surround the head of a person and a cap visor configured to be selectively coupled to and separated from one side of the cap body, the cap including: a rail part configured to be formed on the outer circumferential surface of the bottom of the cap body; a coupling part configured to be coupled to the visor to surround one side of the visor; and a fastening groove part configured to be coupled to one side of the coupling part, and to be engaged with the rail part in a sliding manner.

A method for fabricating a hat or cap by forming a crown; and attaching a brim around said crown; and wherein said brim has at least 30% area with a UV material to block transmission of substantially all UV light.

A cap includes an elongate track that extends along the lower edge of the crown has opposing free ends or edges when formed along a generally circular path. A slide, connected to the brim, can slide along the track. A pin or wire aligns the opposing edges of the track when brought into abutment to form an interface parting line. One or more tapes extend across the interface parting line to prevent relative movements of the opposing edges about the pin or wire thereby fixing and stabilizing the opposing edges at the interface parting line to maintain alignment and eliminate discontinuities at the opposing edges to insure smooth movements of the brim independently of the position of said brim along the track.

A launderable cap assembly allowing laundering of a cap without damaging its bill includes a crown and a bill. The bill comprises a sleeve and a panel. An upper piece of the sleeve is attached to the crown's front so that the sleeve's open end is positioned proximate to the crown's perimeter. The panel is insertable into the sleeve so that a leading edge of the panel is positioned proximate to a closed end of the sleeve and a trailing edge of the panel is positioned proximate to the perimeter of the crown. The panel is semirigid so that the bill extends from the front of the crown, where is can shade eyes of a user upon donning of the crown. The panel can be extracted from the sleeve, thereby positioning a user to first launder the crown and the sleeve and then to reinsert the panel into the sleeve.
