Brief Patent Description - Full Patent Description - Patent Application Claims BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION [0001] (a) Field of the Invention [0002] The present invention relates to headwear and a sweatband applied to the headwear. More particularly, the present invention relates to headwear with an improvement in wearing comfort and quality, and a sweatband applied to the headwear. [0003] (b) Description of the Related Art [0004] As shown in FIG. 16, a cap includes a crown portion 101 for being worn on a head of a wearer, and a visor portion 103 formed entirely or partially at an interior circumference of a bottom side of the crown portion 101. [0005] Such a cap may include a sweatband 105 combined thereto at its lower interior. The sweatband 105 absorbs sweat exuding from a head or forehead of a wearer, such that the cap may maintain its comfort. [0006] Such a sweatband 105 may include a sweat absorbing member 107, a protecting member 109 for maintaining the shape of the sweat absorbing member 107, and a cover 111 for covering the sweatband 105 and the protecting member 109 and maintaining exterior aesthetic features of the sweatband 105. [0007] In particular, the sweat absorbing member 107, the protecting member 109, and the cover 111 are stitched together with four rows of sewing thread 113 along a length direction thereof. Stitches of the sewing thread 113 of the sweatband 105 are protruded toward and push the forehead of the wearer such that a dent is made on the forehead of the wearer. [0008] In addition, friction occurs between the sewing thread 113 of the sweatband 105 and the forehead of the wearer when the wearer puts the cap on or takes it off, thereby causing a drawback of a deterioration of wearing comfort and quality of the cap. [0009] In addition, stretchability of an existing sweatband is provided by loosening stitches of the sewing thread, but the amount of stretchability of the sweatband is insufficient. [0010] The above information disclosed in this Background section is only for enhancement of understanding of the background of the invention and therefore it may contain information that does not form the prior art that is already known in this country to a person of ordinary skill in the art. SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION [0011] The present invention has been made in an effort to provide headwear and a sweatband applied to the headwear having advantages of enhancing wearing comfort by preventing stitches of sewing thread of the sweatband from protruding toward a forehead of a wearer, thereby improving quality of the headwear.

[0013] Exemplary headwear according to an embodiment of the present invention includes a head-covering portion being worn on a head of a wearer, a visor portion combined to the head-covering portion, and a sweatband combined to an interior side of the head-covering portion. The sweatband includes a sweat absorbing member for absorbing sweat exuding from the forehead of the wearer, a cover for covering the sweat absorbing member, and a bonding portion for combining the cover and the sweat absorbing member. [0014] The cover may be provided with a protecting member disposed at an interior side of the cover for maintaining the shape of the sweatband. [0015] The bonding portion may be combined by ultrasonic bonding or thermal bonding. [0016] The protecting member may be adhered together between the cover and the sweatband. [0017] A fabric panel of the cover may be formed of polyester synthetic fiber. [0018] An interior side of the fabric panel of the cover may be provided with a synthetic resin coating layer. [0019] The sweat absorbing member may be formed of a cushion member having elasticity. [0020] The bonding portion may be consecutively disposed along a length direction of the absorber.
