KR-20260064379-A - EAR PROTECTION CAP

Abstract

The present invention relates to a device for protecting the ear, characterized by including a plastic cap that covers the ear. A plurality of holes for ventilation are formed in the outer wall of the plastic cap, configured to allow air circulation around the ear. Additionally, an elastic band is inserted between an elastic fabric and the inner plastic wall at the inner edge of the plastic cap, allowing the user to adjust the tightness of the ear protection cap. The above rubber band includes a length adjustment device that can adjust the length to suit the user's body type and preference, and the length adjustment device is characterized by having a strap-slip prevention structure attached to the end of the rubber band to prevent the rubber band from slipping out.

Description

Ear protection cap The present invention relates to a body protection device, specifically a device that protects the ear area from external stimuli. Ear protection devices exist in various forms and are generally designed for noise reduction and temperature protection. A representative example is earplugs, which primarily function to block noise or protect the ears from ambient temperatures. While these devices are designed not to apply pressure to the ears, they have limitations in effectively protecting the ears from discomfort during sleep as well as from external impacts and friction. FIG. 1 shows an overall perspective view of the ear protection cap of the present invention. In particular, it clearly shows the position of an adjustable elastic band inserted between a plastic inner wall and an elastic fabric. Figure 2 is a front view of an ear protection cap, showing the shape of the cap and the outer surface including a plastic outer wall with holes for ventilation. The present invention relates to an ear protection cap designed to allow a user to sleep comfortably by preventing external impact and friction that may be applied to the ear during sleep. The ear protection cap comprises, as a main protective structure, a plastic cap (10), an outer opening (20) for ventilation, an adjustment strap (30) for adjusting the fit, a length adjustment device (40) for adjusting the length of the strap, an elastic fabric (50) that provides a tight fit between the ear and the cap, and a strap slip prevention structure (60) that prevents the strap from slipping off. The roles and functions of each component are as follows. The plastic cap (10) is the main body of the ear protection cap, is made of a highly durable plastic material, and has a structure designed to protect the ear from external impact and pressure. The plastic cap is designed to maintain its shape without elasticity, so it does not easily deform when worn for a long time. It is designed to be spaced apart from the ear rather than directly covering it, serving to protect the area around the ear from external impact and friction. The plastic cap minimizes contact with the ear to reduce pressure and irritation, and effectively disperses external stimuli applied to the ear even during sleep. The plastic cap (10) has several outer holes (20) to facilitate ventilation around the ear. This ventilation function improves airflow around the ear when a user with a wound or piercing wears the protective cap, preventing moisture and heat from accumulating. The ventilation holes help maintain comfort while wearing and minimize skin irritation, allowing even sensitive users to use it without discomfort. The adjustment strap (30) for adjusting the fit of the ear protection cap is located between the plastic inner wall and the elastic fabric (50) and is made of a highly elastic rubber material. The adjustment strap allows the degree of tightness to be adjusted to fit the user's ear size, thereby providing a stable fit and enabling a customized fit for the user. The strap (30) serves to securely fasten the ear protection cap to the ear and prevents it from easily coming off during sleep. The length adjustment device (40) is a device for adjusting and fixing the length of the strap (30), and is designed to be adjustable by the user. This device operates in a button or slide manner; when the button is pressed, the length of the strap is freely adjusted, and when the button is released, it is fixed at the set length. This allows the user to finely adjust the tightness of the ear protection cap, providing a personalized fit, and enhances stability so that the strap does not come undone or loosen while being worn. The elastic fabric (50) is attached to the inner edge of the plastic cap (10) to provide a snug fit between the ear and the cap. This fabric is made of a soft and highly elastic material, allowing it to adhere softly to the ear when the user wears the ear protection cap, thereby maximizing the user's comfort. Additionally, the fabric (50) securely fastens the adjustment strap (30) and minimizes pressure or friction applied to the ear, helping to prevent discomfort even when worn for a long time. As a result, the user can feel a natural fit even while wearing the ear protection cap. The strap anti-slip structure (60) is a structure designed to prevent the strap (30) connected to the length adjustment device (40) from coming off completely during use. This structure consists of a spherical protrusion at the end of the strap and is secured inside the length adjustment device so that it does not come off easily. The strap anti-slip structure (60) securely holds the protective cap so that the strap does not come off the device when the user tosses and turns or moves while sleeping, thereby allowing the user to wear the ear protection cap securely without the risk of it coming off even while sleeping.
