Backpack type satchel with a rain hat and connected cape

Abstract

A backpack type satchel with a rain hat and connected cape, consisting of a bag section, a rain hat and connected cape connected to the bag section to form an integrated unit, in which the rain hat and connected cape can be stowed into a side pocket of a satchel. The edge of the hat section of the rain hat and connected cape possesses an internal flexible rubber tube frame, with the aim of causing the edge of the hat of the rain hat and connected cape to stand up, thus effectively causing rainwater to run down the edges of the rain hat does not droop in heavy rain. This backpack type satchel also helps to avoid the trouble caused by sudden rainfall when not carrying some form of protection from the rain, thus effectively preventing the rain from soaking the body or the objects in the bag, while also guarding against the hidden dangers inherent in primary and secondary school pupils holding umbrellas in the rain.

Description

[0001] This application claims the benefits of EP Application No. 03250411.0 filed Jan. 21, 2003. BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION [0002] The present invention relates to a backpack type satchel, and in particular to a backpack type satchel with a rain had and connected cape. [0003] Current school satchels or traveling backpacks generally provide no protection from the rain, and most school children generally do not carry protection from the rain at all times. Therefore, when it rains due to the sudden change in the weather, not only do the contents of the satchel or backpack become soaked, but the person's head and body also get wet, and this can constitute a danger to health. In addition, from the point of view of primary and secondary school pupils, due to their relative lack of size and physical strength, holding onto an umbrella when it rains can be difficult or dangerous.

AI Technical Summary

Benefits of technology

[0004] In view of the above mentioned problems presented by current technology, embodiments of the present invention seek to provide a backpack type satchel with a rain hat and connected cape, in which the a rain hat and connected cape are attached to the satchel, and in which the a rain hat and connected cape need only be pulled out from the from the top of the backpack and placed over the head of a wearer, also covering the shoulders and the neck. Rain will then flow off the edges of the rain hat and will not flow onto the body, making its usage convenient, while effectively preventing the rain from soaking either the body or the contents of the bag, whilst also guarding against the dangers inherent in primary and secondary school pupils holding umbrella in the rain. An alternative manner of usage does not require the rain hat to be worn over the head, instead one need only hold the ends of the rain hat with both hands, allowing one to keep the upper half of the body covered, providing more effective protection from the rain.

[0009] Due to the adoption of the above mentioned structures by embodiments of the present invention, when compared to current satchels or travel bags, the trouble caused by sudden rainfall when not carrying some form of protection from the rain can be reduced. Furthermore, rain can be effectively prevented from soaking the body of the objects in the bag, while also guarding against the hidden dangers inherent in primary and secondary school pupils holding umbrellas in the rain.

Problems solved by technology

Current school satchels or traveling backpacks generally provide no protection from the rain, and most school children generally do not carry protection from the rain at all times. Therefore, when it rains due to the sudden change in the weather, not only do the contents of the satchel or backpack become soaked, but the person's head and body also get wet, and this can constitute a danger to health.

In addition, from the point of view of primary and secondary school pupils, due to their relative lack of size and physical strength, holding onto an umbrella when it rains can be difficult or dangerous.
