Producing the state of friction torque to keep guard shield 13 is stopped at an arbitrary position with respect to helmet body 11 between rotary part 5 and the installation portion 42 as long as elastomeric element 6 can make, can be any parts, and the configuration position also there is no particular restriction.As elastomeric element 6, particularly there is no particular determination, for example can be disk spring, compression spring etc., be preferably spring washer 61 etc.This spring washer 61 for example is installed between rotary part 5 and the installation portion 42 around the axis of torque pin 71.Under the situation that installs spring washer 61 by this way, between spring washer 61 and installation portion 42, be provided as the torque packing ring 8 of torque production part around the axis of torque pin 71.The through hole of torque packing ring 8 forms the roughly non-circular through hole 8a of Japan ancient times copper coin shapes (roughly ellipticity) of the non-round portion 71b of confession torque pin 71 with the chimerism insertion.That is, torque packing ring 8 is can being installed on the torque pin 71 with torque pin 71 rotation and the mode that can move along the axis direction of torque pin 71, and the active force that this torque packing ring 8 is subjected to spring washer 61 is pressed against on the installation portion 42.In addition, though spring washer 61 has been configured between rotary part 5 and the installing component 4, but be not limited to this, for example also spring washer 61 can be configured in from the end side of the outstanding torque pin 71 of rotary part 5, between rotary part 5 and installation portion 42, produce friction torque thereby make rotary part 5 be pressed against on the installation portion 42.
Fig. 6 illustrates an example of the opening and closing device that the guard shield of helmet left side is opened and closed, with reference to the accompanying drawings, the opening and closing device 30 of this guard shield is made of the mounting base 31 of the left side that is installed in helmet body 11 in the identical mode in mounting base 14 axle center that illustrated with the front and the cap 33 that utilizes mounting screw 32 to be installed on this mounting base 31, utilize mounting base 31 flange part 31a periphery and be arranged on and be with 18 supportings of stair-stepping installing hole for rotating on the side end that axle support 33a on the cap 33 will be arranged on guard shield 13.In addition, installing hole 18 also can be with ladder, and the parts of this installing hole 18 of axle supporting also can not be the flange part 31a of mounting base 31 and axle support 33a both sides but a side wherein.Have, the structure of the structure of mounting base 31 and cap 33 and both installation methods etc. can be followed the variant embodiment that the front has illustrated again.
Next, the helmet of the present invention opening and closing device 1 of guard shield and the effect of the helmet 10 are described.Because the opening and closing device 30 of guard shield 13 does not have special feature therefore to omit its explanation.The opening and closing device 30 of this guard shield 13 moves and brings into play function to carry out on-off action with respect to 11 pairs of guard shields of helmet body 13 with the helmet with the opening and closing device 1 of guard shield.Under the closure state that guard shield 13 is closed, the guard shield that the bottom of guard shield 13 is landed in helmet body 11 is taken a seat in the portion 16, thereby peristome 12 is closed (with reference to Fig. 1 and Fig. 4 (a)) by guard shield 13.At this moment, the active force that torque packing ring 8 is subjected to spring washer 61 is pressed against on the installation portion 42 of installing component 4, thereby produces friction torque between installing component 4 and rotary part 5, so guard shield 13 is maintained at the closure state that covers peristome 12.In addition, in order to keep this closure state more reliably, also locking mechanism can be set.
In the time will opening wide the peristome 12 of this helmet 10, under the state that fixes helmet body 11, for example finger is hooked on the guard shield operating sheet 13a of guard shield 13, perhaps catch this guard shield operating sheet 13a, and overcome by the friction torque that active force produced of spring washer 61 guard shield 13 is lifted towards the top with finger.Thus, guard shield 13 serves as that axle is rotated with guide member 2, and the front face side of guard shield 13 moves and makes peristome 12 little by little be opened wide from the below simultaneously.And then for example under the state of the intermediateness in the middle of guard shield 13 becomes open mode and closure state, when making mobile the stopping of guard shield 13, guard shield 13 just remains in the state that stops under this state.Promptly, if guard shield 13 is moved towards the top from closure state, then for example the left end of guard shield 13 serves as that axle rotates towards dextrorotation direction (clockwise) with guide member 2, simultaneously, rotary part 5 is accompanied by this rotation and rotates towards left hand direction with torque pin 71 with respect to the installation portion 42 of installing component 4.Because the active force that this rotary part 5 overcomes spring washer 61 is rotated, therefore when guard shield 13 is stopped the rotation, torque packing ring 8 is subjected to the active force of spring washer 61 and is pressed against on the installation portion 42 of installing component 4, thereby between installing component 4 and rotary part 5, produce friction torque, so guard shield 13 remains in the state that stops under intermediateness.With this, guard shield 13 is stopped at an arbitrary position freely to stop mode with respect to helmet body 11.
In addition, the kind and the number of the structure of friction torque generation unit and torque packing ring and elastomeric element are not limited to embodiment, and the position that produces friction torque also is not limited to embodiment.They can be converted to various known configurations.And, thereby also can use performance absorption function when guard shield is opened with respect to helmet body or when closed such as rubber.
When lifting guard shield 13 on further and making peristome 12 become the open mode of opening wide fully, go up the rotation of guard shield 13 is stopped thereby rotary part 5 is connected to the chimeric installation sheet 42a of installing component 4.At this moment, torque packing ring 8 is subjected to the active force of spring washer 61 and is pressed against on the installation portion 42 of installing component 4, thereby produces friction torque between installing component 4 and rotary part 5, so guard shield 13 remains on the open mode that peristome 12 opens wide.In addition, in order to keep this open mode more reliably, also locking mechanism can be set.
Then, in order to make peristome 12 return closure state from the open mode of opening wide fully, under the state that fixes helmet body 11, the guard shield operating sheet 13a that for example finger is hooked on guard shield 13 upward or with finger catches this guard shield operating sheet 13a, moves towards the below thereby guard shield 13 is overcome by the friction torque that active force produced of spring washer 61.So guard shield 13 serves as that axle is rotated with guide member 2, the front surface of guard shield 13 moves towards the below and makes the aperture position of peristome 12 move down gradually simultaneously.And then when peristome 12 was covered by guard shield 13, the bottom of guard shield 13 was landed in guard shield and takes a seat in the portion 16, and the rotation of guard shield 13 stops, and guard shield 13 is maintained at this halted state.
Like this, to be that friction torque generation unit 3 is arranged on the position of leaving with guide member 2 with the parts of guard shield 13 splits, and produce the friction torque that guard shield 13 is stopped with respect to helmet body 11, even therefore the friction torque that produces between installing component 4 that constitutes friction torque generation unit 3 and rotary part 5 is less, because the rotating torques that produces when making guard shield 13 serve as the axle rotation with respect to helmet body 11 with guide member 2 becomes big, even therefore small-sized opening and closing device also can keep the halted state of guard shield 13 with respect to helmet body 11 at an arbitrary position reliably.That is, guard shield 13 is stopped freely stopping mode with respect to helmet body 11.Owing to be small-sized like this opening and closing device, therefore also can be applied to guarantee the helmet 10 in less space fully.

In addition, the diameter of torque pin 112 forms bigger slightly than the width of guiding groove 115E and 115G.Consequently, torque pin 112 is crimped on the two sides of guiding groove 115E and 115G.That is, on the two sides of guiding groove 115E and 115G, can produce friction with torque pin 112.Owing to, when rotatable parts 115 are rotated, need corresponding torque in the existence of the friction that produces between this guiding groove 115E and the torque pin 112 and between guiding groove 115G and the torque pin 112.In addition, torque pin 112 also can constitute with guiding groove 115E and 115G in one-sided crimping.
In addition, the material of the 112B of tube portion by changing torque pin 112 and width and the material of diameter or appropriate change guiding groove 115E or 115G can be adjusted in the size of the friction of generation between the two.And in aforesaid way, torque pin 112 separately is made of mount pin 112A and the 112B of tube portion as minute body component, but also can be made of integratedly parts.Have again, also can constitute integratedly by parts with arm member 114.
And, also the shape (width) that can insert opening 115D and guiding groove 115E, 115G according to arm with rotatable parts 115 within the specific limits with respect to the slewing area restriction of installing component 116, to have backstop function as stopper unit.That is, in the present embodiment, the restriction of this slewing area can be directly as the slewing area of guard shield 103 with respect to helmet body 101.Certainly, be not limited to this, as described later, also can be between helmet body 101 and rotatable parts 115 or any limit rotation mechanism is set in addition in guard shield 103 sides.
The effect of<the helmet and opening and closing device 〉
Then, on one side with reference to Figure 19 the effect of the opening and closing device 1A of the present invention and the helmet 100 is described on one side.In Figure 19, Figure 19 (A), Figure 19 (C) and Figure 19 (E) illustrate the helmet 100 integral body, and the part that Figure 19 (B), Figure 19 (D) and Figure 19 (F) focus on opening and closing device 1A illustrates.And Figure 19 (A) and Figure 19 (B) illustrate the figure that closes the closure state behind the guard shield 103, and Figure 19 (C) and Figure 19 (D) are the figure of open mode in the middle of illustrating, and Figure 19 (E) and Figure 19 (F) illustrate the figure that opens the full open mode behind the guard shield 103.In addition, for easy explanation, arbitrary figure has omitted a part of parts and has illustrated.
Under guard shield 103 pent states, guard shield 103 all covers the peristome 102 of helmet body 101.And torque pin 112 is arranged in the topmost (being the top at Figure 19 (B)) of guiding groove 115E and 115G.At this moment, the heavy section 114B of arm member 114 brings into play function as stopper unit, and this heavy section 114B is connected on the upper end 107C of fan-shaped embedded hole 107B, thereby has determined the closing position of guard shield 103.Have again, the bottom of guard shield 103 is connected on the helmet body 101, thereby performance is as the backstop function of stopper unit, also can insert the backstop function of bringing into play between the opening 115D as stopper unit, perhaps make torque pin 112 be connected to the upper end of guiding groove 115E and 115G with the backstop function of performance as stopper unit at arm member 114 and arm.
Shown in Figure 19 (C) and Figure 19 (D), under guard shield 103 mediated the situation of open mode (state between closed condition and the open mode), the heavy section 114B of arm member 114 was positioned at about centre of fan-shaped embedded hole 107B.Be conceived to torque pin 112 if change the visual angle, torque pin 112 is arranged in about centre (is approximately middle at Figure 19 (D)) of guiding groove 115E and 115G.
When guard shield 103 was in full open mode, the heavy section 114B of arm member 114 was connected on the bottom 107D of fan-shaped embedded hole 107B.Be conceived to torque pin 112 if change the visual angle, torque pin 112 is positioned at the below of guiding groove 115E and 115G.
In the present embodiment, as mentioned above, because rotatable parts 115 and guard shield 103 are chimeric and by integrated, so rotatable parts 115 rotate along with the on-off action of guard shield 103.On the other hand, arm member 114 does not rotate.That is, the on-off action by guard shield 103 relatively rotates rotatable parts 115 and arm member 114, but be that catch under the situation of rotational action at the center with helmet body 101, only rotatable parts 115 rotations and arm member 114 does not rotate.
And, no matter being under the arbitrary state in the closure state that guard shield 103 is closed, middle open mode and the full open mode, torque pin 112 is pressed into all the time in guiding groove 115E and 115G.And, be pressed into by this, make in case want to make torque pin 112 will produce frictional force by between with respect to guiding groove 115E and 115G action (wanting to make torque pin 112 to slide).That is, want guard shield 103 to be continued to remain on the power (rotary resistance) of this position with respect to helmet body 101 owing to existing this frictional force to produce.Particularly, under guard shield 103 closing state, in the time will opening guard shield 103, effect has wants the power that continues to close, under guard shield 103 mediates the situation of state, in the time will making guard shield 103 actions, effect has makes it continue to be positioned at the power of this intermediateness, under the opened state of guard shield 103, in the time will closing guard shield 103, effect has the power that will continue to open.In addition, for state that stays open guard shield 103 more reliably or the state of closing guard shield 103, also locking mechanism can be set in addition.
In order to open wide the peristome 102 of this helmet 100, (for example be worn under the state of head) under the state that fixes helmet body 101, for example finger is hooked on the guard shield 103 or catches guard shield 103, and the friction torque that overcomes friction torque generation unit FC1 is lifted guard shield 103 upward with finger.Thus, guard shield 103 is that rotate at center (promptly the center with the through hole 115A of formation on rotatable parts 115 is that center of rotation O is the center) with installation portion 116, thereby peristome 102 is little by little opened wide, and becomes full open mode, and peristome 102 is opened wide fully.And then for example stage of open mode stops when mobile guard shield 103 in the middle of guard shield 103 becomes, and guard shield 103 is maintained at halted state in this position.Under arbitrary middle open mode, has this maintenance function equally.That is, can be implemented in the hold mode of any open position, i.e. so-called " free halted state " by opening and closing device 1A.
And when guard shield 103 became full open mode with respect to helmet body 101, torque pin 112 was positioned at the foot of guiding groove 115E and 115G.At this moment, the heavy section 114B of arm member 114 is as the stop part performance function of stopper unit, and this heavy section 114B is connected on the bottom 107D of fan-shaped embedded hole 107B, thus the full open position of restriction guard shield 103.Herein, the upper end of guard shield 103 is connected on the helmet body 101, thereby performance is as the backstop function of stopper unit, as mentioned above, also can make arm member 114 and arm insert the backstop function of bringing into play between the opening 115D as stopper unit, perhaps make torque pin 112 be connected to the bottom side of guiding groove 115E and 115G with the backstop function of performance as stopper unit.
On the other hand, opposite with above-mentioned situation when closing guard shield 103, for example catch guard shield 103 that it is closed and get final product with finger.If the arbitrary intermediateness (centre position) at this dwell period is ended closing motion, the action of guard shield 103 stops constantly at this, and guard shield 103 is maintained at this position.
As described above, as the opening and closing device 1A of the embodiment 3 of an example of embodiments of the present invention is that described opening and closing device 1A comprises: the rotatable parts 115 that are fixed on guard shield 103 sides with the opening and closing device of guard shield 103 supportings for opening and closing with respect to helmet body 101; The arm member 114 that relatively rotates with respect to rotatable parts 115 along with the on-off action of guard shield 103; And the friction torque generation unit FC1 that produces predetermined friction torque along with the on-off action of guard shield 103, this friction torque generation unit FC1 has: circular-arc guiding groove 115E and the 115G that form on rotatable parts 115; And with this guiding groove 115E and the chimeric torque pin 112 of 115G, and, thereby adopt the enterprising line slip in two sides that torque pin 112 is crimped on guiding groove 115E and 115G to produce the structure of friction torque.By adopting this structure, can utilize compact opening and closing device 1A to produce bigger friction torque.That is, be crimped on the two sides at least of formed guiding groove 115E and 115G by making torque pin 112, thereby can guarantee that thereby bigger friction produces area and obtains enough rotary resistances, can keep guard shield 103 at an arbitrary position reliably.Especially because guiding groove 115E is formed on (being made of the parts with guard shield 103 splits) rotatable parts 115, therefore can freely select and torque pin 112 between the high material of coefficient of friction, can produce bigger rotary resistance.
In addition, for example except friction torque generation unit FC1, can also specially make the outer peripheral face of the heavy section 114B of arm member 114 be crimped on the inboard that is formed at the fan-shaped embedded hole 107B on the guard shield 103, thereby can utilize the friction that slip produced by this butt position.
In addition, in above-mentioned situation, the shape with guiding groove 115E and 115G forms " circular arc " as mentioned above, but, for example also can make guard shield 103 touch action by the touching stop element is set, described touching stop element forms protuberance or recess based on circular shape every predetermined angular.
And, if form an opening and closing device 1A with friction torque generation unit FC1 be set respectively in the two sides of helmet body 101, then can produce bigger rotary resistance by the combination of two opening and closing device 1A, therefore can more reliably guard shield 103 be remained on the desired opened and closed positions, and can constitute opening and closing device 1A monomer more compactly.
