[0010] The primary objective of the present invention is to provide a structure for pant coverings connected to a wind and raincoat, structured to comprise a coat body, a pair of extension portions, pant coverings, fixing devices and retaining units, wherein the fixing devices are provided with fastening members to tightly secure the pant coverings to the legs of a user, thereby providing a securing function that prevents bottom open ends of the pant coverings from falling down and coming in contact with the ground. Furthermore, because of a structural configuration that includes top open ends of the pant coverings mutually connected to the extension portions, thus, when the user is bending and stretching his legs, the top open ends and the mutually connected extension portions accommodate bending and stretching movements of the legs to a certain extent by means of an automatic pulling adjustment configuration, without causing an uncomfortable pulling effect.
[0011] A second objective of the present invention is to provide the structure for pant coverings connected to a wind and raincoat with the pant coverings that further comprise a soft lining cloth and a hard waterproof cloth joined thereto. When the pant coverings are needed, the extension portions, the pant coverings and the fixing devices are removed from the retaining units and fitted to the legs of the user, thereby achieving the function to protect the body and legs from rain. Moreover, the soft lining cloth and the hard waterproof cloth joined thereto further provide allowances for bending and stretching movements of the legs of the user, thereby effectively achieving free extendibility of the pant coverings structure when the user is bending and stretching his legs.
[0012] Yet another objective of the present invention is to provide the structure for pant coverings connected to a wind and raincoat with a rain-hat, a retaining portion, a retaining opening and a cover, wherein one end of the rain-hat is joined to an inside of the retaining portion; and the retaining portion is formed within an interlayer of a collar of the coat body. When the rain-hat structure is not needed, the rain-hat can be folded and placed into the retaining portion. Moreover, outward appearance of the retained rain-hat structure does not affect aesthetics of the general collar. Function of the cover is to cover the retaining opening and prevent rainwater from entering therein.
[0014] A fifth objective of the present invention is to provide lower ends of the coat body of the wind and raincoat with the upper and lower adjoining members, which, after mutual adjoining, form the holding spaces that are used for storing the folded extension portions, pant coverings and fixing devices. The original coat body of knee-length forms a jacket of hip length after mutual adjoining of the upper and lower adjoining members, which can be worn as a casual coat to keep the body warm on cold, dry days.
[0016] A seventh objective of the present invention is to provide the wind and raincoat with a covering unit joined to an inner side of the coat body corresponding to the back of a person, which is used to hold the entire folded coat body, the extension portions, the pant coverings, the fixing devices and the retaining units and the rain-hat structure. The covering unit is a pocket or a single sheet, and is able to completely cover the folded coat body, thereby achieving a function to conveniently carry and store the wind and raincoat.

Problems solved by technology

However, when compared to automobiles or other general public means of transport, their main shortcoming is that although a raincoat and rain shoes can be worn to protect the rider from rain to a certain extent, they are not able to completely keep out the wind and rain.
Regardless of whether the aforementioned prior art products use the male and female fasteners 3, 4, the elastic strips or belts (not shown in the drawings) to vary the length of the leg coverings 2, all such methods require manual adjustment in advance of wearing, and are unable to achieve effectiveness of unhindered automatic adjustment in actual use.
Furthermore, the bottom layers 5 will come in contact with the ground when walking along the road because of the way they are fitted over the shoes, and friction with the ground produced by the walking action results in wear and tear and separation of joins between the bottom layers 5 and the leg coverings 2.
Furthermore, conventional coats are not designed with an aesthetical and functional retaining unit for an attached rain-hat, thereby spoiling the aesthetics and multiformity of the collar and raincoat.
Moreover, a prior art rain-hat is unsuitable for wearing over a sports cap worn by the user, which similarly results in a substantial shortcoming in use.

Embodiment Construction

[0041] Referring to FIG. 3, which shows a versatile head-to-foot wind and raincoat of the present invention structured to comprise a coat body 10, a pair of extension portions 11, pant coverings 12, fixing devices 13 and retaining units 14. The front of the coat body 10 longitudinally opens to form left and right front portions 101. The extension portions 11 are sheet forms, sides of which are attached fixing members 111 to correspond to fixing members 112 attached to inner sides of lower ends of the front portions 101. When using the pant coverings 12, the fixing members 111 are adjusted and adjoined to the fixing members 112 according to height and leg length of the user. Embodiments of the fixing members 111 and 112 can use male and female hook and loop fastening strips or other alternative methods. The pant coverings 12 assume hollow tubular forms provided with top and bottom open ends 121, 122. The top open ends 121 respectively join to the extension portions 11, and the bottom...

Abstract

A versatile head-to-foot wind and raincoat includes a coat body, a pair of extension portions, pant coverings, fixing devices and retaining units. The fixing devices are respectively affixed to lower portions of the pant covering, and provide a margin for the pant coverings to displace and extend without affecting free movement of extending and retracting the legs when wearing the pant coverings. Furthermore, when walking along a street, the street surface will not cause damage to the structure of the pant coverings. When the pant coverings are not needed, it can be folded away and retained in the retaining units. Furthermore, the wind and raincoat and a rain-hat structure combination structure is formed within a collar interlayer of the coat body. The coat body is furnished with upper and lower adjoining members, which, after mutual adjoining, form holding space structures for storing the folded pant coverings, and so on.

Description

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION [0001] (a) Field of the Invention [0002] The present invention relates to a versatile head-to-foot wind and raincoat, and more particularly to a full length overcoat structure that provides complete wind and rainproof protection from head to foot, and includes a multiple of different functions and wearing modes to match different weather conditions. The present invention primarily embodies a coat body, pant covering structures and retaining units and a rain-hat structure and rain-hat retaining portion. The pant coverings and the rain-hat can be contained within the retaining units and the rain-hat retaining portion respectively. Moreover, the coat body can be completely folded within a covering unit for convenient carrying by a user. [0003] (b) Description of the Prior Art [0004] The inexpensive price, high mobility and convenience of bicycles and motorcycles have made them an indispensable means of transport for the general public in developing countries...
