HAT WITH MIRROR

The idea of this invention a visor hat fitted with a small rear view mirror so that anyone who wears it can adjust the mirror direction with a simple movement of the hand in order to have a clear view of everything that is happening behind their back.

Design 1/1 shows the hat from above with the mirror attached. Regarding reference point 1 of design 1/1, the arrows indicate the path that the extendible rod can follow from right to left. The rod path is limited by an adjustable cut inside the visor, which will be illustrated below. Obviously, by adjusting the size of the cut the wearer can adjust the mirror direction to his or her needs.

Reference point 2 of design 1/1 shows arrows which indicate three positions of the extendible rod. The rod, however, can be positioned to many other points, according to the needs of the wearer.

Reference point 3 of design 1/1 shows arrows which indicate the paths over which the two rear view mirrors can move. Another possible path of mirror movement is illustrated in reference 1 of design 2/2, where the hat is seen from behind, the mirrors are in position, and the arrows show the path of rotation from top to bottom. This rotation movement is possible because the end section of the extendible rod can rotate 360° in both directions at the point where it exits the rod itself.

In addition, as shown in design 3/3, these paths of movement allow the wearer to position the mirrors in such a way that, when they are not in use, they become an integral part of the hat. Reference point 1 of design 3/3 shows the concave section under the visor which has the same form as the mirrors, and where the mirrors can be placed in stored position.

Reference point 2 of design 3/3 shows the small retaining area where the mirrors are inserted, as seen in reference point 3 of design 3/3.

Reference points 4 and 5 of design 3/3 shows the paths of extension and retraction that the rods follow.

Reference point 2 of design 4/4 shows the mirror in storage position inside the visor, but it does not show the covering material.

Reference point 2 of design 4/4 shows how the extendible rods operate within the visor. As previously shown, the rod's path of movement is limited both to the right and to the left by means of the angle of the adjustable cut in the visor. But since this cut is adjustable, the rod's path of movement can be either extended or reduced by the appropriate adjustment of the cut.

Reference point 3 of design 4/4 shows the path of movement of the mirror around the pivot which is attached to the end part of the extendible rod.

Reference point 4 of design 4/4 shows the visor mechanism.

Reference point 5 of design 5/5 shows the visor with a large opening angle, and the relevant parts ^" in the process of being mounted.

Design 616 shows a view of the hat with the visor mechanism completely mounted.

Reference 1 shows the angle and thickness of the visor.

Reference 2 shows the pivot and screw system which serves to attach the extendible rod to the visor.

Reference 3 shows the 3 extension elements of the extendible rod, which, as mentioned above, can be used or not used, according to the needs of the wearer.

Reference 4 shows the screw that attaches the end part of the extendible rod to reference 5, which connects the extendible rod to the rear view mirror of reference 6. The size and shape of the rear view mirror can be changed according to need.

We hold that all the parts illustrated in detail on page 6, which shows all the mechanical

parts of the project, must be made of plastic, or of any plastic derivative materials which are flexible and do not present any danger upon impact with a solid surface, or of any other material when is appropriate for the purposes of the project.
