Luminescent horizontal three stripes band for sports apparels
Abstract
A novel luminescent three horizontal stripes band consists of,
including but not limited to, luminous plastic tapes, dyes and
threads attached, painted, and embroidered around the neck of a
polar shirt, around the side of a bucket hat, ski hat, along the
right and left side of a sun visor cap with the three horizontal
stripes ending at the beginning where a predetermined fastening
attachment is placed at the back of the said caps; around the side
of a sport cap, on a wrist band, head band, and arm band. The
luminescent stripes band of this invention has an opening at the
front middle face where the three stripes do not cross over for,
including but not limited to, a logo, an emblem and a trademark to
be positioned. The luminescent three stripes band gives a `warning`
signal to a bystander that the wearer is amongst the surroundings
of the bystander when, but not limited to the sun setting, in bad
weather, at night, forest and in a dark park.

Description
[0001] The present invention relates to a novel luminescent three
horizontal stripes band for various sports apparels.
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
[0002] 1. Field of Invention
[0003] The present invention relates to a luminescent three
horizontal stripes band consists of luminescent materials decorated
on different sports apparels.
[0004] 2. Description of the Prior Art
[0005] U.S. Pat. No. 3,953,892 to Kennedy, et al. illustrates a
safety swim cap provided in a variety of fluorescent colors and
consisting of multiples of interconnected deflectable tubes. The
tubes are inflatable from a single valve. These colors provide
sharp visibility in placid or rough waters. This swimming cap acts
as a variety of life-saving equipment.
[0006] U.S. Pat. No. 5,111,366 to Rife, et al., U.S. Pat. No.
5,829,063 to Cheng and U.S. Pat. No. 6,167,570 to Su demonstrate
caps for displaying information on the front of a cap. The
transparent panel on the front of the cap is illuminated from its
edge, with a battery supplying the power for the illumination
arrangement. It works as a battery operated signboard.
[0007] U.S. Pat. No. 5,177,812 to DeMars teaches how to use light
tube on an article of a personal wearing apparel, such as a cap,
that has a specific exterior ornamental configuration. The light
tube is to be flexible enough to accommodate the mentioned specific
shape of groove. The illuminatable tube includes a substance that
once activated cause the tube to glow for a period of time.
[0008] U.S. Pat. No. 5,567,038 and U.S. Pat. No. 5,738,431 to Lary
teach how to attach a fluorescent light on a cap. The said
fluorescent light is detachable and can be placed onto a different
placed. It permits the wearer to see and perform functions in the
dark without the usage of his hands. It can be seen as a simple
miner's hat.
[0009] None of the mentioned prior arts discloses the attachment of
luminescent three stripes band to commercial sports apparels.
SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION
[0010] A novel luminescent three horizontal stripes band consists
of, including but not limited to, luminous plastic tapes, dyes and
threads attached, painted, and embroidered around the neck of a
polar shirt, around the side of a bucket hat and ski hat; along the
right and left side of a sun visor and sport cap with the three
horizontal stripe ending at the beginning where a predetermined
fastening attachment is placed; around the side of a sports cap; on
a wrist band, head band, arm band, glove, sox, stocking, turtle
neck, sweat shirts, polo shirts, sports shirts, t-shirts, jacket,
and pants. The luminescent three stripes band of this invention
have 30 percent opening at the front middle face where the three
stripes do not cross over for, including but not limited to, a
logo, an emblem and a trademark to be positioned later. The
luminescent three stripes band provides a `warning` signal to a
bystander that the wearer is amongst the surroundings of the
bystander when, but not limited to the sun setting, in all
unconditional bad weather at night and in a dark park/forest.
