Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a device for adapting a visor to a helmet, in particular for adapting a visor obtained by punching a flat sheet, to a helmet.
  • the subsequent phase for obtaining the helmets which employ said known kinds of visors consists of having to curve the latter, their ends being pivotally coupled to the sides of the helmet itself.
  • Air infiltration is thus allowed inside the helmet, causing severe discomfort to the wearer.
  • the main aim of the present invention is therefore to eliminate the above described disadvantages found in the prior art by providing a device which allows one to adapt to a helmet a visor which is obtained, for instance, by punching or cutting a flat sheet material, so that the same visor has an optimum sealing action on the appropriate seat provided on the helmet.
  • an important object is to provide a device for adapting a visor to a helmet, which allows the visor itself to be raised and lowered in a quick and easy manner.
  • Another object is to obtain a device for adapting a visor to a helmet which associates with the preceding features those of having satisfactory aesthetical characteristics and of not impairing the view of the wearer of the helmet.
  • Not least object is to provide a device which associates with the preceding characteristics that of having low costs and of being produceable with conventional plant and equipment.
  • a device for adapting a visor to a helmet characterized in that it is composed of a rigid flange (2) associable, in a fixed position, with a helmet (10), said flange (2) being provided with a toothed region (23) cooperating with a matchingly shaped region (24) provided proximate to a washer (18) associable in a fixed position with the end (16) of the visor (15) interposable between said flange (2) and helmet (10), said washer (18) being provided with preset guiding seats (22) for rotating the visor (15), said flange causing. in the closing condition, the perimetral edge of the visor (15) to adhere to the appropriate seat for the same provided on the helmet (10).
  • the device 1 is advantageously composed of a metallic flange 2, which is expediently slightly curved and has an essentially triangular shape in which both the base region 3 and the apex 4 are rounded.
  • the flange 2 On the outer lateral surface 5, the flange 2 has a through hole 6 for a locking device 7 composed. for instance, of a screw, said screw 7 being associated with a matchingly threaded bush 8 rigidly coupled with the lateral surface 9 of a helmet 10.
  • a locking device 7 composed. for instance, of a screw, said screw 7 being associated with a matchingly threaded bush 8 rigidly coupled with the lateral surface 9 of a helmet 10.
  • the flange 2 is provided with a means 11 for locking the position thereof, composed of a prong, nib, tooth or the like pivot element the internal lateral surface 12 of the flange itself.
  • This prong 11 can be arranged so that it may be inserted in a suitable seat 13 provided on the surface 9 of the helmet.
  • the flange 2 is thus associable in a fixed position relatively to the helmet 10.
  • the seat 13 being provided in a position such as to allow the positioning of the end of the flange opposite to the region 3 so as to position the apex 4 proximate to the profile of the seat 14, for the visor 15, provided on the surface 9 of the helmet itself.
  • the end 16 of the visor 15 can be arranged, the latter being provided with a suitable circular hole 17 for accommodating a matchingly shaped washer 18.
  • This washer has, on the perimetral edge, at least one protruding tooth 19 suitable for positioning itself in a matchingly shaped seat 20 provided on the perimetral edge of the hole 17, the visor and the washer being thus associated with each other in a fixed position.
  • the washer 18 is furthermore expediently provided with a central bore 21, and two seats 22, advantageously arranged substantially diametrically opposite to each other and defining a given arc of a circle, in one of said seats there being placeable the prong 11 of the flange 2.
  • a toothed region 23 adapted for interacting, during use, with a substantially matchingly shaped or second toothed region 24, advantageously provided proximate to the internal peripheral edge of the washer 18 and defining an arc of a circle substantially corresponding to that extending between the seats 22.
  • the use of the device 1 is as follows: initially, the washer 18 is inserted in the hole 17, positioning the tooth 19 in the suitable seat 20.
  • the subsequent phase entails the positioning of the flange 2 by placing the prong 11 in one of the seats 22 and thus the toothed region 23 proximate to the matchingly shaped zone or region 24, the prong 11 being then inserted in the provided seat 13 arranged on the surface 9 of the helmet.
  • the locking of the flange to the helmet can then be performed by virtue of the locking means 7, upon the axes of the bores 6 and 21 and of the bush 8 becoming aligned.
  • the bore 21 advantageously has a diameter larger than that of a collar 27, arranged concentrically with respect to the bore 6.
  • the position of the flange 2 is thus well defined relatively to the helmet 10, the apex 4 and the region contiguous thereto, due to its curved form, forcing the underlying region of the visor 15 into tight contact with the provided seat 14 arranged on the helmet.
  • the visor Since the visor is associated with the washer 18, and since the latter can rotate relatively to the flange 2, the user is allowed to raise the visor according to a presettable angle, also by virtue of the presence of the seats 22 through which the prong 11 passes.
  • the displacement of the visor can also be graduated according to sequential stops, by virtue of the interaction between the toothed region 23 of the flange and the matchingly shaped region 24 provided on the ring 18.
  • the invention achieves the aim and the objects described, a device being provided for adapting a visor, obtained, for instance, by punching or cutting a flat sheet, to a helmet, the sealing action of the visor in closed condition being ensured by the terminal end of the flange which forces the region of the flange interacting therewith in a correct position.
  • the device has furthermore small dimensions, is aesthetically very valid, not limiting in any way the view of the wearer and being finally structurally very simple and easy to apply.
  • the material and the dimensions of the individual components which constitute the device may be any, according to the requirements.
