FIG. 1 is a front perspective view of a garment providing electromagnetic radiation protection according to an embodiment of the present invention. Referring now toFIG. 1 , anexemplary garment 100 providing electromagnetic radiation protection is illustrated. In one embodiment, the garment is a hat. In alternative embodiments, other garments and items providing electromagnetic radiation are provided. These will be discussed in greater details below. - Advantageously, the hat or headwear garment is an ideal choice to carry out the present invention as preventing electromagnetic radiation from a wearer's head is critical. However, it should be understood that any type of garment may be provided, including but not limited to shirts, blouses, scarfs, pants, shorts, dresses, suits, athletic gear, etc.
- In one embodiment, the garment is constructed of at least two
woven fabrics 102. In a preferred embodiment, one of the at least two fabrics is carbon yarn. In other embodiments, one of the at least two fabrics is any form of carbon material. Advantageously, the carbon yarn is configured to absorbelectromagnetic radiation 104. It should be noted, that the present invention does not provide any fabrics or materials that are configured to reflect electromagnetic radiation. One reason to exclude the use of any radiation reflective material is that they are mostly harmful to the environment. Another reason to exclude use of the radiation reflective materials in the present invention is to prevent the harmful radiation from going back into the environment after the radiation is reflected off the garment. For instance, silver is a common material configured to reflect radiation, however, the use of silver is harmful to the environment as it does not dissolve and is toxic. For the purposes of this disclosure “toxic” is defined to mean “harmful through constant exposure.” For the purposes of this disclosure “fabric” is defined to mean “one or more of materials, fabrics, fibers, yarns, textiles, or similar materials combined via weaving, knitting, bonding, braiding, crocheting, knotting, tatting, felting, printing, or similar.” -

The provided example shows twowoven fabrics - In another embodiment, woven fabric material is a combination of wool yarn, carbon stretch fabric, and carbon, wherein the carbon stretch fabric contains approximately 35% carbon fibers and elastane fiber, such as Lycra®, and the carbon essentially consists of approximately 80% of broken carbon. As previously mentioned, the materials selected are critical to absorb the electromagnetic radiation and electric and magnetic fields (EMFs) rather than reflect the electromagnetic radiation and electric and magnetic fields (EMFs) back into the environment, as such the material should be free of any metals, e.g. silver. In another embodiment, the woven fabric material essentially consists of 80% carbon yarn, 15% wool, and 5% stretch yarn. In some embodiments, the wool may be replaced with similar fabrics, such as cotton. The percentages discussed are necessary to absorb a predetermined about of ER and EMF waves from the environment, which is at least 97%. In the addition to fabric, in some embodiments, solid carbon pieces formed to the shape of the garment to item may also be provided. In some embodiments, the solid carbon pieces may be positioned to cover the organs of the wearer, such that the organs are protected from ER and EMF waves. For example, carbon pieces can be positioned approximate to the heart the wearer.

FIG. 6 illustrates an exemplary example of aphone case 115 consisting of the woven fabric of the present invention to provide electromagnetic radiation protection. Referring now toFIG. 6 , thephone case 115 with the woven fabric described above provides a material configured to absorb electromagnetic radiation and EMF produced by a mobile smart phone (not illustrated). Thecase 115 may be modified in size to hold any sized phone, and may include openings for camera features and screens. In other embodiments, thecase 115 is configured to fully surround the phone to prevent electromagnetic radiation and EMF waves from passing through the case, useful when storing and transporting the phone. - The woven fabric may be constructed or produced by a variety of methods, including via a loom either by hand or machine, as well as 3D printing. Once the fabric is created, it can be shaped, cut, pressed, stitched, etc. into the desired garment or item as well known in the art. The functional fabric combination of the present invention should offer at least a 97% protection (absorption rate) of electromagnetic radiation and EMF waves. In one embodiment, the novel material combination and fabric ratio provides 97-99% protection (absorption rate) of electromagnetic radiation (ER) and EMF waves.
- Although the invention has been described in considerable detail in language specific to structural features, it is to be understood that the invention defined in the appended claims is not necessarily limited to the specific features described. Rather, the specific features are disclosed as exemplary preferred forms of implementing the claimed invention. Stated otherwise, it is to be understood that the phraseology and terminology employed herein, as well as the abstract, are for the purpose of description and should not be regarded as limiting. Therefore, while exemplary illustrative embodiments of the invention have been described, numerous variations and alternative embodiments will occur to those skilled in the art. Such variations and alternate embodiments are contemplated, and can be made without departing from the spirit and scope of the invention.
- It should further be noted that throughout the entire disclosure, the labels such as left, right, front, back, top, bottom, forward, reverse, clockwise, counter clockwise, up, down, or other similar terms such as upper, lower, aft, fore, vertical, horizontal, oblique, proximal, distal, parallel, perpendicular, transverse, longitudinal, etc. have been used for convenience purposes only and are not intended to imply any particular fixed direction or orientation. Instead, they are used to reflect relative locations and/or directions/orientations between various portions of an object.
- In addition, reference to “first,” “second,” “third,” and etc. members throughout the disclosure (and in particular, claims) are not used to show a serial or numerical limitation but instead are used to distinguish or identify the various members of the group.
