Abstract
A decorative headgear simulating the appearance of a racing helmet is disclosed. It is in the form of a sheet of thin flexible material. The sheet is shaped and configured with a back panel (BP), a right panel (RP), a left panel (LP), a top panel (TP), a front panel (FP), and a chin cover (CC), all of which are adapted for inter-connection to form the helmet. The sheet has several pre-made lines in the sheet forming in whole or in part the headgear removable from the sheet, and wherein the sheet of thin flexible material has several pre-made fold lines in the sheet, said fold lines oriented to form said sheet into a container to hold other articles.
Claims16
A decorative headgear apparatus simulating an appearance of a helmet, comprising:
- a sheet of flexible material, said sheet configurable from an initial configuration to an erected configuration simulating the appearance of a helmet, the sheet in said initial configuration being shaped to comprise:
- (a) a back panel, said back panel partially defined by a back-panel-right upwardly-extending edge and a back-panel-left upwardly-extending edge, wherein in said initial configuration said back-panel-right upwardly-extending edge and said back-panel-left upwardly-extending edge converge towards each other bottom to top;
- (b) a right panel, wherein said right panel in said initial configuration comprises:
- (i) a right rear sub-panel, said right rear sub-panel bordering said back panel below said back-panel-right upwardly-extending edge, said right rear sub-panel partially defined by a right-rear-sub-panel-leading upwardly-extending edge and a right-rear-sub-panel-trailing upwardly-extending edge, wherein said right-rear-sub-panel-leading upwardly-extending edge and said right-rear-sub-panel-trailing upwardly-extending edge converge towards each other bottom to top;
- and,
- (ii) a right front sub-panel, said right front sub-panel bordering said right rear sub-panel below said right-rear-sub-panel-leading upwardly-extending edge, said right front sub-panel partially defined by a right-front-sub-panel-trailing upwardly-extending edge, wherein said right-front-sub-panel-trailing upwardly-extending edge diverges away from said right-rear-sub-panel-leading upwardly-extending edge bottom to top;
- (c) a left panel, wherein said left panel in said initial configuration comprises:
- (i) a left rear sub-panel, said left rear sub-panel bordering said back panel below said back-panel-left upwardly-extending edge, said left rear sub-panel partially defined by a left-rear-sub-panel-leading upwardly-extending edge and a left-rear-sub-panel trailing upwardly-extending edge, wherein said left-rear-sub-panel-leading upwardly-extending edge and said left-rear-sub-panel-trailing upwardly-extending edge converge towards each other bottom to top;
- and
- (ii) a left front sub-panel, said left front sub-panel bordering said left rear sub-panel below said left-rear-sub-panel-leading upwardly-extending edge, said left front sub-panel partially defined by a left-front-sub-panel-trailing upwardly-extending edge, wherein said left-front-sub-panel trailing upwardly-extending edge diverges away from said left-rear-sub-panel-leading upwardly-extending edge bottom to top;
- (d) a top panel, wherein in the erected configuration, the left panel and the right panel attach to the top panel;
- and
- (e) a front panel configured to be located above a wearer's eyes, the front panel comprising connectors configured to connect with complementary connectors of the right front sub-panel and the left front sub-panel, wherein in the erected configuration, the complementary connectors of the right front sub-panel and the left front sub-panel attach to the connectors of the front panel, wherein the connectors are integrally formed by the front panel and the complementary connectors are integrally formed by the right front sub-panel and the left front sub-panel, respectively, wherein the front panel borders the top panel in the initial configuration, and wherein the initial configuration is planar.
