Definitions

  • the invention relates to a head protection consisting of a one-piece, molded foam molded part, which comprises the head and has a poly-urethane foam shape for athletes, with openings for the eyes, the turf. mouth and ears.
  • Such a head protection made of a one-piece, molded molding made of polyurethane foam is known from US Pat. No. 3,992,722 Pera.
  • this head protection still has an additional dimension on the polyurethane foam in order to achieve a higher strength of the surface.
  • this practical head guard is a closed basket, which is relatively rigid due to bars in the area of the kines and mouth and is firmly closed in any case.
  • adequate protection is not provided in the sensitive area of the back of the head, but only a narrow bridge.
  • Such a head protection can hardly be adapted to different head sizes because it does not yield in the area of the chin. A bad fit must therefore be accepted or numerous different sizes must be kept in stock. There is also a risk of occipital injuries.
  • the object of the present invention is to provide a head protection which can be easily adapted to different head sizes and which nevertheless enables reliable protection, particularly in the area of the back of the head.
  • the molded part consists of polyurethane integral foam, which encloses the head to be protected on all sides up to the back of the neck at the cervical vertebrae, is divided in the area of the chin cup by a slot extending from the mouth opening, and that the molded part is in the area of the At the back of the head two parallel to each other. continuous longitudinal slots on the lower edge of the molded part, which enclose between them a free web extending from the top of the protective headgear to the base of the vertebra.
  • the design of the head protection according to the invention is practically divided into three shells, namely two side shells in an upper shell, which can be bent against one another, but are so elastically connected to one another that the head protection fitted snugly clings to the head of the wearer and thereby protects the wearer. Due to the areas reaching into the back of the head and the free bridge, the back of the head is also reliably protected.
  • the use of the integral polyurethane foam brings about a better durability of this head protection, which when putting on and taking off in certain areas. is strongly bent.
  • the two chin shell halves separated by a slot are connected by a Velcro fastener.
  • the two lateral parts of the back of the head and the free bridge can also be mutually locked using a corresponding Velcro fastener.
  • Velcro fasteners are known from DE-GM 78 08 068, but not in connection with such a head protection.
  • the head protection consists of a uniform and as a whole cut out; Molding 1, which is made after a model head to ensure a good fit.
  • the helmet-like, thinner upper part 2 has four approximately triangular openings 3, 1, 5 and 6 and then goes into the reinforced front part 7, the area covering the temples 8, the cheekbone parts 9 and the chin and the lower jaw almost completely surrounding the shell 10 over and runs obliquely backwards into the shepherd's head protection 11.
  • the chin shell 10 is divided by a vertical slot 12 extending from the mouth opening, which is bridged with a self-adhesive Velcro fastener 13 and thus connects the two chin shell halves to one another in a lockable manner.
  • a self-adhesive Velcro fastener 13 In the back of the head 11 there are two parallel longitudinal slots 14 and 15 which run parallel to one another and extend to the lower edge of the molded part 1 in such a way that a free and elastic web 16 starting from the center of the helmet-like upper part 2 is formed and extends practically to the cervical vertebrae and thus ensures elastic adaptation to the shape of the head as well as reliable protection of these occipital areas.
  • the two rear side head protection parts 11 a and 11 b and the web 16 can also be tensioned together by a self-adhesive Velcro fastener 17.
  • the approximately oval recess 18 for the field is - a visual disability largely ruled by the helmet - to the overlying end edge 19 by approximately 45 0 and to the side and the bevelled edges 20 zygomatic about 30 0th
  • Ear openings 21 are recessed on the side of the head protection 1 and are provided on the inside with additional recesses 22 for receiving them are surrounded around the auricle, so that there is no acoustic impairment and there is no feeling of pressure from the head protection on the ear areas.
  • the advantage of the head protection according to the invention is essentially that the head is safely protected at all vulnerable points in the event of impact and impact and when falling, so that the risk of injury is reduced, if not excluded.
  • the adjustment of the head protection to adapt to the corresponding head size is very simple and the field of view is free from annoying projections in all directions due to the bevel angle.
  • a major advantage is also the use of a soft integral polyurethane foam for the molded part, this integral skin having an almost closed skin surface, during the foaming process, forming a compressed edge zone which merges into the cellular core in a sandwich-like manner.
  • the existing regular molecular crosslinking causes an extraordinarily high elasticity.
  • the integral polyurethane foam absorbs the kinetic energy and returns to its original shape after relief. This is achieved in that an air cushion braking effect occurs due to the closed cell structure and the non-directional cell walls, which ensures absorption of the shocks and optimal springback.
  • the solid skin of the molded part which merges into the cellular core like a sandwich, is created in one step from the same material on the molded foam workpiece.
  • the head protection can then be covered with an elastic varnish in order to obtain an optimal appearance.
