AI Technical Summary

Technical Problem

Clothing with white or light-colored exteriors reflects some solar rays but allows the remaining rays to penetrate and bounce off the skin, leading to increased heat retention, which is a concern in the context of global warming.

Method used

Incorporating a black interior into clothing with white, pastel, or light-colored exteriors to absorb any remaining sunlight, preventing it from irradiating and bouncing off the skin.

Benefits of technology

The black interior effectively reduces or prevents the buildup of heat by absorbing and dissipating sunlight, thereby providing a cooling function and addressing the issue of heat retention in light-colored clothing.

Abstract

The invention provides for a functional change to clothing that is white, pastel, or a light color (that reflects most of the radiation effect of sunlight), by providing for it to be black on the inside (to absorb any remaining sunlight and prevent it from irradiating, back and forth off one's skin, and creating heat).

Description

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION

[0001] Field of the invention: the invention provides for a functional change to clothing manufacturing for all types of shirts, coats, pants, and dresses-a black interior to block or reduce sunlight from hitting your skin and creating heat for clothing that is white, pastel, or a light in color on the outside (which reflects, only, some of the sun's rays on most white or light-colored fabrics).

[0002] Global warming is a concern, worldwide, and reducing body-heat can be accomplished by reflecting most of the solar rays that enter clothing with a white or light colored exterior, while absorbing the rest with a black interior before the rays irradiate and continuously bounce off one's skin.BRIEF SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION

[0003] The invention provides for a functional change to clothing that is white, pastel, or a light color on the outside (that reflects most of the radiation effect of sunlight), by providing for it to be black on the inside (to absorb any remaining sunlight and prevent it from irradiating, back and forth off one's skin, and creating heat).BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWING

[0004] The structure of the invention is described, below, with reference to the accompanying drawing, in which the following:

[0005] FIG. 1 is a front view of typical man's button-down shirt. Note: It is being used as an example for all types of clothing types, such as other types of shirts (including t-shirts), coats, pants, and dresses.

[0006] The reference point 1. represents a white (or pastel or light color) fabric on the exterior of the clothing. Reference point 2. represents the black interior of the clothing piece.DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0007] The invention provides a unique cooling function to all types of shirts (including t-shirts, medical scrubs, and short / long sleeve button down shirts), coats, pants, and all types of dresses (both short and long). The invention provides for a functional change to clothing that is white, pastel, or a light color on the outside (that reflects most of the radiation effect of sunlight), by providing for it to be black on the inside (to absorb any remaining sunlight and prevent it from irradiating, back and forth off one's skin, and creating heat).

[0008] This black interior reduces or prevents the sunlight, which enters from the white clothing, from continuously bouncing off one's skin (which creates heat).

[0009] The clothing may be made of cotton, linen, canvas, silk, polyester, nylon, rayon, or spandex. The clothing can be dual-layered using two different fabrics, or merely spun or dyed, white on the outside and black on the inside.

[0010] Global warming is a concern, worldwide, and reducing body-heat can be accomplished by reflecting most of the solar rays while absorbing the rest with a black interior before the rays irradiate and continuously bounce off one's skin.

[0011] The purpose of the invention is, therefore, to provide a functional change to clothing via a device (a black colored interior) that physically prevents or reduces solar rays from hitting one's skin without affecting the normal operation of the manufacturer's intended purpose to cloth one's body. It's additional purpose is to provide such a device in a form which is economical to produce and simple to wear.

Claims

1. The invention provides a unique cooling function to all types of shirts, coats, pants, and dresses.The invention provides for a functional change to clothing that is white, pastel or a light color on the outside (to reflect or reduce sunlight from hitting one's skin), by providing for it to be black on the inside to absorb any remaining sunlight (and prevent it hitting one's skin and bouncing back and forth and irradiating heat).The unique function of the black interior reduces or prevents any remaining incoming sunlight that enters from the white exterior (as not all white, pastel, or light colored fabric is solid enough to block all sunlight), and so it prevents the sun's rays from continuously bouncing off one's skin (which creates heat).
