Solar-powered ventilated hat with light chasing function

Abstract

A solar-powered ventilated hat with light-chasing function comprising an inner hat body to be worn on the head and an outer hat body pivotally connected to the inner hat body. The inner hat body is designed as meshed and a plurality of positioning ribs are disposed on its surface. On the top edge of the outer hat body are disposed a fan and a servomotor pivotally connected to the top edge of the inner hat body. A light-detecting part, a solar panel and a control circuit are disposed on the brim of the outer hat body. The solar panel is electrically connected to the fan and the servomotor. When the hat is worn, the light-detecting part detects sunlight and drives the servomotor to rotate the outer hat body so that the solar panel can face sunlight directly to generate adequate electric power supply for the fan. Exterior air is guided by the fan inside the hat and distributed on the head by the inner hat body to form convection and make the head comfortable and dry.

Description

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION[0001]1. Field of the Invention[0002]The present invention relates to a solar-powered ventilated hat with light-chasing function, particularly to a solar-powered ventilated hat with light-chasing function which can guide exterior air inside the hat to keep the head comfortable and dry and whose solar panel can face sunlight directly to generate adequate electric power supply for the fan.[0003]2. Description of Related Art[0004]In summer when the sun is bright, one would usually wear all kinds of hats to prevent the head from being directly exposed to sunlight. However, existent hats are poorly ventilated when in use. Feeling hot and windless for lack of ventilation, the user would sweat constantly in the head and even wet the hair. Such a ventilation problem may be improved by equipping the hat with a small fan which can guide exterior air inside the hat to form convection. But then the power supply for the fan would become a big issue. Although current te...

AI Technical Summary

Benefits of technology

The present patent is about a solar-powered ventilated hat with a light-chasing function that can cool the head while providing electric power to a fan. The inner hat body is designed with a meshed surface and positioning ribs, and the outer hat body has a fan and a servomotor connected to it. The brim has a light-detecting part, a solar panel, and a control circuit. When the hat is worn, the solar panel detects sunlight and drives the servomotor to rotate the outer hat body, which keeps the face facing sunlight and generating power for the fan. Exterior air is guided inside the hat by the fan and distributed to the head through the inner hat body to form convection, making the head comfortable and dry.

Problems solved by technology

However, existent hats are poorly ventilated when in use.

Feeling hot and windless for lack of ventilation, the user would sweat constantly in the head and even wet the hair.

But then the power supply for the fan would become a big issue.

Although current technique employs a solar panel to absorb sunlight and convert it into electric power, if the solar panel does not face the sunlight directly for a long time as the user moves, the fan would not be able to work properly.
