Benefits of technology

[0015]Accordingly, the present invention has been made keeping in mind the above problems occurring in the related art, and the present invention is intended to propose a cap with a tiltable visor, wherein core parts instead of a conventional frame are provided inside a band at opposite sides of the band surrounding a wearer's head so that the contact area between the core parts and the head is reduced, thereby preventing a headache caused by a conventional frame applying pressure to the head during long-term use, and a visor provided on the cap is tiltable in multiple stages in up and down directions, and thus a tilting angle of the visor can be easily adjusted.
[0019]The transparent visor is provided with a stop edge that protrudes downwards from an inside edge thereof such that the transparent visor is prevented from being tilted excessively downwards over the auxiliary visor when the visor is tilted.
[0021]Firstly, the ultraviolet blocking transparent visor that is coupled with the coupling ball set inside the band surrounding the head is provided with the locking protrusion and the multi-stage angle adjustment holes so that the transparent visor can be tilted in multiple stages. Thus, the transparent visor can be tilted at a desired angle when the cap is worn on the wearer's head, so it is possible to efficiently block ultraviolet rays.
[0022]Secondly, the coupling ball is provided with the visor seat and the disc-fitting groove so that the transparent visor can be efficiently tilted. Thus, it is possible to prevent interference between the band and the transparent visor when the transparent visor is tilted, and improve productivity due to ease of assembling the locking disc.
[0023]Thirdly, the cap is provided with the auxiliary visor that extends forward from the lower edge of the band and the stop edge that protrudes downwards from the inside edge of the transparent visor, such that excessive tilting of the transparent visor can be prevented. Thus, it is possible to improve wearing comfort of the cap.
[0024]Fourthly, the cap is provided with the core part that tiltably fixes the transparent visor and the locking disc that is engaged with the coupling ball outside the core part, such that the core part and the locking disc are easily coupled with each other. Thus, it is possible to increase productivity and reduce labor costs.

Problems solved by technology

In general, sunlight contains ultraviolet rays, which are directly irradiated to the skin during outdoor activities, thereby causing skin problems such as pigmentation, staining, burning, etc.
Moreover, the ultraviolet rays of sunlight cause severe irritation of the eyes during outdoor activities, so it is often the case that it is difficult to see an object.
In particular, a long-term exposure to the sunlight in summer causes considerable damage to the human body such as skin aging, skin cancer, etc.
However, there is a problem in that the sun cap causes a headache as the band having the frame therein applies pressure to the wearer's head when the sun cap is worn.
However, the above-described prior art is problematic in that the arm parts 110 that are provided so as to prevent a headache caused by the frame provided inside a band, cause pain on the ears due to friction therewith during long-term use.
In addition, since the goggle part 120 and the mask part 130 are hingedly coupled to each other, there is a further problem in that production cost is increased, and when the goggle part 120 and mask part 130 are tilted, malfunction occurs frequently.
