Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of swimming caps, and in particular discloses a rubber swimming cap structure. Background Art

[0002] Wearing a swim cap is essential equipment and common courtesy when swimming in a pool. It prevents hair from clogging and contaminating the pool. It effectively protects hair, reduces water damage, and reduces drag, allowing for faster swimming. Traditional swim caps lack elasticity, and for those with larger or smaller heads, they may not fit snugly or may be too tight. Wearing them for extended periods can cause discomfort. Utility Model Content

[0003] In order to overcome the shortcomings and deficiencies in the prior art, the purpose of the present invention is to provide a rubber swimming cap structure.

[0004] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention provides a rubber swimming cap structure, comprising a cap body and a brim disposed on the underside of the cap body, the cap body being configured to form a cavity for accommodating the head; an opening for wearing the cap at the lower portion of the cap body, and a friction member disposed on the cap body, the friction member being configured to increase friction between the cap body and the human head, preventing the cap body from falling off during use, thereby improving the wearing effect of the swimming cap. The friction member increases the roughness of the contact surface between the cap body and the human head or provides an additional friction surface, thereby enhancing the friction between the two, helping to maintain the stable position of the swimming cap during swimming. The friction member can ensure a better fit between the swimming cap and the head, reducing the possibility of the swimming cap being displaced underwater due to water flow or head movement. This increases the wearer's comfort and confidence, allowing them to focus more on swimming. The swimming cap can better adapt to heads of different sizes and shapes, ensuring a stable wearing effect in various situations, making the swimming cap more practical.

[0005] Furthermore, the friction part includes scales, and a plurality of scales are provided on the cap body, and the plurality of scales are distributed in an array, and raised stripes are formed between adjacent scales. The scales and raised stripes distributed in an array greatly increase the roughness of the surface, thereby significantly enhancing the friction, making the cap body less likely to slide or shift during use. Raised stripes are formed between adjacent scales. The arrangement of the scales and the raised stripes can better adapt to the subtle bumps on the surface of the object, increase the fit between the cap body and the contact object, and provide a tighter wrapping.

[0006] Furthermore, a fish tail is provided at the tail of the cap body to guide the water flow. The shape of the fish tail can effectively guide the water flow to flow smoothly through the tail of the cap body, reduce the impact and resistance of the water flow on the cap body, and make the wearer move more easily and quickly in the water. When the water flows through the tail of the cap body, the fish tail can help stabilize the water flow, reduce the impact of water flow fluctuations on the head position, and enhance the wearer's stability in the water. Following the principles of fluid dynamics, the design of the fish tail can optimize the movement performance of the cap body in the water, making the entire swimming process smoother and more natural.

[0007] Furthermore, strip grooves are provided on the fishtail to reduce the resistance of water to the swimming cap during swimming. The strip grooves help to smoothly guide the water flow, reduce the turbulence and resistance of water on the surface of the swimming cap, thereby greatly reducing the overall resistance of water to the swimming cap, making it easier and more labor-saving for swimmers to move in the water.

[0008] Furthermore, the scales extending from the end away from the fish's tail toward the fish's tail help reduce the resistance of water flow on the surface of the cap, allowing the swimmer to move more smoothly in the water and improving swimming efficiency.

[0009] Furthermore, the cap body is provided with an extension portion, which is used to cover the ears and can effectively block the water flow from directly impacting the ears, thereby reducing the pressure on the ears and lowering the risk of ear injuries, especially providing protection during intense swimming movements or collisions in water. After the ears are covered, the water flow can flow through the head more smoothly, reducing the water flow turbulence and increased resistance caused by the protruding ears, which helps to improve swimming speed and efficiency. When swimming in an environment with lower water temperature, the extension portion can provide a certain thermal insulation effect for the ears, reduce heat loss, keep the body at a better body temperature, and prevent the ears from becoming uncomfortable due to low temperature.

[0010] Furthermore, specifically, a ridge is provided on the cap body, which is used to make the cap body streamlined as a whole when worn, and flat when not worn. The cap body can also be folded to save space and be easy to carry.

[0011] Furthermore, the scales are made of an elastic material to mitigate damage caused by collisions. The spine is arranged in a C-shape, with the fishtail positioned on top. The elastic scales act as a cushion during collisions, absorbing and dispersing the impact force, thereby reducing damage. The elastic scales can better conform to the shape of the head, providing a more comfortable wearing experience. They can reduce pressure on the head, making the swim cap fit more closely, less likely to slip off or cause discomfort. The C-shaped spine reduces water resistance on the head, improving swimming efficiency. The C-shape helps guide water flow smoothly over the head, reducing turbulence and vortices, allowing swimmers to move more smoothly through the water.

[0012] Furthermore, the cap, scales, and fish tail are all integrally molded. Injection molding is characterized by high production efficiency, good quality stability, high material utilization, low cost, energy conservation and environmental protection, wide application range, flexible design, and high product quality.

[0013] Furthermore, the cap body, scales, and fishtail are all made of elastic rubber, which helps the cap stay more stably fixed on the head after wearing. The rubber material not only provides convenient wearing, but also ensures wearing comfort. Its soft material can fit the contours of the head and reduce discomfort.

[0014] The beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows: the friction member increases the roughness of the contact surface between the cap body and the human head or provides an additional friction surface, thereby enhancing the friction between the two, helping to maintain the stable position of the swimming cap during swimming. The friction member can make the swimming cap fit more closely to the head, reducing the possibility of the swimming cap shifting underwater due to water flow or head movement. This increases the wearer's comfort and confidence, allowing them to focus more on swimming. The swimming cap can better adapt to different head sizes and shapes, ensuring a stable fit in various situations, making the swimming cap more practical. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

[0021] In order to facilitate understanding by those skilled in the art, the present invention will be further described below with reference to embodiments and drawings. The contents mentioned in the embodiments are not intended to limit the present invention.

[0022] See also Figures 1 to 4The present invention discloses a rubber swimming cap structure comprising a cap body 1 and a brim 2 disposed on the underside of the cap body 1. The cap body 1 is configured to form a cavity for accommodating the head; an opening 3 is provided at the lower portion of the cap body 1 for wearing the cap; and a friction member is provided on the cap body 1 to increase friction between the cap body 1 and the human head, thereby preventing the cap body 1 from falling off during use and improving the wearing effect of the swimming cap. The friction member increases the roughness of the contact surface between the cap body 1 and the human head or provides an additional friction surface to enhance the friction between the two, helping to maintain the stable position of the swimming cap during swimming. The friction member can make the swimming cap fit more closely to the head and reduce the possibility of the swimming cap being displaced underwater due to water flow or head movement. This increases the comfort and confidence of the wearer, allowing them to focus more on swimming. The swimming cap can better adapt to heads of different sizes and shapes, ensuring a stable wearing effect in various situations, making the swimming cap more practical.

[0023] Specifically, the friction part includes scales 5, and a plurality of scales 5 are provided on the cap body 1. The plurality of scales 5 are distributed in an array, and protruding stripes are formed between adjacent scales 5. The scales 5 and the protruding stripes distributed in the array greatly increase the roughness of the surface, thereby significantly enhancing the friction, making the cap body less likely to slide or shift during use. Protruding stripes are formed between adjacent scales 5. The arrangement of the scales 5 and the protruding stripes can better adapt to the subtle bumps on the surface of the object, increase the fit between the cap body 1 and the contact object, and provide a tighter wrapping.

[0024] Specifically, a fish tail 6 is provided at the tail of the cap body 1, which is used to guide the water flow. The shape of the fish tail 6 can effectively guide the water flow to flow smoothly through the tail of the cap body 1, reduce the impact and resistance of the water flow on the cap body 1, and make the wearer move more easily and quickly in the water. When the water flows through the tail of the cap body 1, the fish tail 6 can help stabilize the water flow, reduce the impact of water flow fluctuations on the head position, and enhance the wearer's stability in the water. Following the principles of fluid dynamics, the design of the fish tail can optimize the movement performance of the cap body in the water, making the entire swimming process smoother and more natural.

[0025] Specifically, a strip groove 7 is provided on the fish tail 6, which is used to reduce the resistance of water to the swimming cap during swimming. The strip groove helps to smoothly guide the water flow, reduce the turbulence and resistance of water on the surface of the swimming cap, thereby greatly reducing the overall resistance of water to the swimming cap, making it easier and more labor-saving for swimmers to move in the water.

[0026] Specifically, the scales 5 extending from the end away from the fish tail 6 toward the fish tail 6 help reduce the resistance of water flow on the surface of the cap body 1, allowing the swimmer to move more smoothly in the water and improving swimming efficiency.

[0027] Specifically, an extension portion 4 protrudes from the cap body 1. The extension portion 4 is used to cover the ears, which can effectively prevent water from directly impacting the ears, reduce the pressure on the ears, and reduce the risk of ear injuries, especially providing protection during intense swimming movements or collisions in water. After the ears are covered, water can flow through the head more smoothly, reducing water flow turbulence and increased resistance caused by the protrusion of the ears, which helps to improve swimming speed and efficiency. When swimming in an environment with low water temperature, the extension portion 4 can provide a certain thermal insulation effect for the ears, reduce heat loss, keep the body at a good body temperature, and prevent the ears from feeling uncomfortable due to low temperature.

[0028] Specifically, the cap body 1 is provided with a ridge 8, which is used to make the cap body 1 streamlined when worn, and flat when not worn. The cap body 1 can also be folded to save space and be easy to carry.

[0029] Specifically, the scales 5 are made of an elastic material to mitigate damage from collisions. The spine 8 is arranged in a C-shape, with the fishtail 6 positioned on the spine 8. The elastic scales 5 act as a buffer during collisions, absorbing and dispersing the impact force, thereby reducing damage. The elastic scales 5 can better conform to the shape of the head, providing a more comfortable wearing experience. They can reduce pressure on the head, making the swim cap fit more closely and less likely to slip off or cause discomfort. The C-shaped spine 8 reduces water resistance on the head and improves swimming efficiency. The C-shape helps guide water flow smoothly over the head, reducing turbulence and vortices, allowing the swimmer to move more smoothly through the water.

[0030] Specifically, the cap body 1, scales 5 and fish tail 6 are all integrally molded by injection molding, which has the characteristics of high production efficiency, good quality stability, high material utilization rate, low cost, energy saving and environmental protection, wide application range, flexible design and high product quality.

[0031] Specifically, the cap body 1, scales 5 and fish tail 6 are all made of elastic rubber material, which helps the swimming cap to be more stably fixed on the head after wearing. The rubber material not only provides convenient wearing, but also ensures wearing comfort. Its soft material can fit the contour of the head and reduce discomfort.

[0032] Specifically, the opening provided on the cap body 1 cooperates with the streamline to open to the greatest extent to ensure wearing. The design of the opening and streamline also provides good comfort and safety. Since the swimming cap can fit the head tightly, the swimmer will not feel uncomfortable or restrained during swimming. At the same time, the tightly fitting swimming cap can also prevent water from flowing in from the edge, thereby increasing the safety of swimming.

[0033] Specifically, a plurality of scales 5 form anti-slip patterns inside the cap body 1 to increase the friction inside the cap body and prevent the cap from slipping or moving during wearing.

[0034] Specifically, the raised stripes formed on the side of the cap body 1 for contacting the human head can better increase the wearer's comfort and reduce the damage to the head caused by the impact of external water bodies.

[0035] Specifically, the fishtail 6 helps the user to distinguish the front and back sides of the cap body 1 and the wearing direction.

[0036] Specifically, in other embodiments, the cap body 1 is provided with an anti-static coating, a reflective coating and a marking coating. The anti-static coating is provided inside and outside the cap body 1 to prevent static electricity generated by hair and reduce dust. The reflective coating and the marking coating are provided on the outside of the cap body 1 to improve visibility during night swimming and increase safety.

[0037] The above contents are only preferred embodiments of the present invention. For ordinary technicians in this field, according to the concept of the present invention, there may be changes in the specific implementation methods and application scope. The content of this specification should not be understood as limiting the present invention.
