HEADWEAR ARTICLE OF NATURAL OR ARTIFICIAL FUR WITH FRAMEWORK BASE Russian patent published in 2015 - IPC A42B1/00 

FIELD: personal use articles.

SUBSTANCE: headwear article of natural or artificial fur with framework base contains the framework base proper, an external layer made of a combination of natural or artificial fur and textile, a textile interlay and lining. The framework base is semi-rigid i.e. marginally flexible and removable through the top or the bottom of the headwear article so that to enable transformation into a flat shape (folding). The framework base material is represented by multiple identical wooden elements having two parallel flat surfaces (face and rear) and a thickness as the distance between the said surfaces that are interconnected with flexible links by means of through channels lying within planes that are parallel to the face and the rear surfaces. The side parts of each element contact those of the adjoining elements so that the totality of the face and rear cognominal surfaces of all the elements form the corresponding face and rear surface of the material. Each wooden element is cylindrical shaped. Its face and rear surfaces are perpendicular to the wood fibres, representing their cross-sections. The wood pores are opened on the face and rear cross-section surfaces of the elements. Envisaged is the possibility of the framework base transformation within the range from a cylindrical or truncated conic to the said flat shape. The gap between the interlay and the lining corresponds to the framework base thickness so that to enable detachable placement of the latter in the said gap.

EFFECT: improved operational characteristics.
