Description

Die Erfindung betrifft einen Helm zur Benutzung beim Fahren mit Fahrrädern, Motorrädern, Mofas, Mopeds, Rollern, Inlineskates, Rollschuhen oder anderen Fortbewegungsmitteln.The invention relates to a helmet for use when riding bicycles, motorcycles, mopeds, scooters, inline skates, roller skates or other means of transport.

Zum Schütze des Kopfes beim Fahren mit obengenannten Fortbewegungsmitteln werden Helme benutzt, die zwecks Absorbierung von Stößen gepolstert sind, vor Kälte und Regen schützen, starke Sonneneinstrahlung und den Fahrtwind abhalten, sowie zur Sicherheit, besser gesehen zu werden, Reflektoren besitzen.To protect the head when riding the above-mentioned means of transport, helmets are used that are padded to absorb shocks, protect against cold and rain, keep out strong sunlight and the wind, and have reflectors to ensure better visibility.

Damit ist aber nur die passive Sicherheit auf ein höheres Niveau gebracht worden. Die zunehmende Verkehrsdichte verlangt jedoch weites Vorausschauen, um schneller reagieren zu können. Die aktive Sicherheit muß also angehoben werden. Dies führte bei Vierradfahrzeugen dazu, daß ein drittes, erhöhtes Bremslicht eingeführt werden konnte. Bei Zweirädern und anderen Fortbewegungsmitteln sind erhöhte Signallichter bisher nicht eingeführt und/ oder erfunden worden. Rücklichter bei Inlineskate und Rollschuhfahrern sind bisher an den Schuhen angebracht,^wo sie keinerlei oder nur wenig Wirkung erzielen.This has only brought passive safety to a higher level. However, the increasing traffic density requires that drivers look far ahead in order to be able to react more quickly. Active safety must therefore be increased. This has led to the introduction of a third, raised brake light on four-wheeled vehicles. Raised signal lights have not yet been introduced and/or invented on two-wheeled vehicles and other means of transport. Rear lights on inline skaters and roller skaters have so far been attached to the shoes, where they have little or no effect.

Der im Schutzanspruch 1 offenbarten Erfindung lag also das Problem zugrunde, einen HELM zu schaffen, der die gleichen Licht- und Leuchteinheiten aufweist, wie sie gesetzlicherweise für die entsprechenden Fortbewegungsmittel vorgeschrieben sind,oder noch eingeführt werden können.The invention disclosed in claim 1 was therefore based on the problem of creating a HELMET that has the same light and luminous units as are legally required for the corresponding means of transport, or can still be introduced.

Dieses Problem wird mit den in den Schutzansprüchen, insbesondere im Schutzanspruch 1 aufgeführten Merkmalen dadurch gelöst, daß der HELM mit einem/ mehreren Fahrlicht/ ern, Rücklicht/ ern, Bremslicht/ ern und/ oder Fahrtrichtungsanzeiger/ &eegr; (Blinkern) ausgerüstet ist, sowie Batterie/n, Akku/s, Schalter/n, Funkempfänger/n und Kabelanschluß/-schlüssen zwecks Aktivierung obengenannter Lampen, Lichter und/ oder Leuchtbänder besitzen kann oder besitzt.This problem is solved with the features listed in the protection claims, in particular in protection claim 1, in that the HELMET is equipped with one or more driving lights, rear lights, brake lights and/or direction indicators (blinkers), and can have or has battery(s), rechargeable battery(s), switch(es), radio receiver(s) and cable connection(s) for the purpose of activating the above-mentioned lamps, lights and/or light strips.

Es sind aber auch HELME vorgesehen, deren Lampen, Lichter und/ oder Leuchtbänder die Energie über Kabel von dem benutzten Fahrzeug erhalten. Die Hauptsollbruchstelle des Kabels (der Kabel) liegt am Gürtel des Fahrers, damit keinerlei Zug an den Kopf desselben weitergegeben wird, wie es heutzutage (z.B. bei der Formel 1) leider noch der Fall ist.However, HELMETS are also provided whose lamps, lights and/or light strips receive energy via cables from the vehicle used. The main breaking point of the cable(s) is at the driver's belt so that no tension is passed on to the driver's head, as is unfortunately still the case today (e.g. in Formula 1).

Mit der Erfindung wird erreicht, daß ein Zweiradfahrer oder eine ein sonstiges Fortbewegungsmittel benutzende Person über viele Fahrzeuge hinweg gesehen wird, wodurch rechtzeitiges Reagieren möglich ist und Auffahrunfälle zu einem großen Teil vermieden werden können.The invention ensures that a cyclist or a person using another means of transport can be seen across many vehicles, which makes it possible to react in time and to avoid rear-end collisions to a large extent.

Eine vorteilhafte Ausgestaltung der Erfindung ist in den Schutzansprüchen niedergelegt, sowie ein Ausführungsbeispiel in der Zeichnung dargestellt und näher beschrieben ist: In der Zeichnung ist ein HELM wiedergegeben, dessen HELMKÖRPER (1) mit einem BREMSLICHT (2), einem RÜCKLICHT (3), zwei FAHRT-: RICHTUNGSANZEIGERN (4) (Blinker und Warnblinkanlage) und einem REFLEKTOR (5) versehen ist.An advantageous embodiment of the invention is laid down in the claims, and an embodiment is shown and described in more detail in the drawing: The drawing shows a HELMET whose HELMET BODY (1) is provided with a BRAKE LIGHT (2), a TAIL LIGHT (3), two DIRECTION INDICATORS (4) (turn signals and hazard warning lights) and a REFLECTOR (5).
