Definitions

  • the invention relates to a protective helmet for athletes, in particular cyclists, water sports enthusiasts or skiers.
  • Such protective helmets are known in various embodiments and consist of an impact-resistant outer helmet shell which is provided on the inside with an impact and shock absorbing jacket, for example an essentially permanently deformable plastic foam.
  • Protective helmets of this type are matched to the respective head shape and size as precisely as possible, since they can only fully fulfill the desired protective function. As a result, the protective helmets have to be manufactured in numerous different sizes and kept in stock. It is not possible to convert existing helmets to a different head size.
  • the invention has for its object to design a protective helmet of the type mentioned form that he can adapt to different head sizes in a simple and easy manner, so that even one and the same helmet can be worn by people with different head sizes after only a few changes and the production and stocking of such helmets in different helmet sizes becomes unnecessary.
  • a protective helmet that solves this problem is characterized according to the invention by a multi-part helmet shell consisting of two side parts lying opposite one another on both sides of the apex plane of the helmet and a central part arching over the side parts along the apex, between which and the side parts free joints are provided, which change the curvature Deformations of the middle part, which is elastically bendable in the apex plane, are possible, the side parts and the middle part being connected to one another by a traction means which runs in a ring-like manner in a transverse plane which is approximately perpendicular to the apex plane, through the two end regions of the middle part and through both side parts, and with respect to its ring circumference - and is noticeable.
  • the progress achieved by the invention essentially consists in the fact that the middle part of the protective helmet according to the invention with its two end regions parallel to the apex plane is compressed more or less elastically and thereby the head size of the helmet wearer can be adjusted.
  • This adjustment of the helmet size is carried out with the aid of the traction device, which at the same time connects all helmet shell parts with one another and can be adjusted and adjusted as desired with regard to its ring circumference. If the traction means is contracted with respect to its ring circumference, the helmet width is reduced because the end regions of the middle part approach each other, however, if it is reduced in the ring circumference, the end regions of the middle part spring back elastically, so that the helmet width increases. Since the traction means also holds the side parts, these are also pressed against the head of the wearer under the tension of the traction means, so that with the correct size adjustment of the middle part the fitting of the side part on the head also results at the same time.
  • the traction means is a band which is guided in receptacles of the central part and the side part provided for this purpose, the band having a buckle which connects the ends of the band in an adjustable manner.
  • the buckle is expediently arranged on the outside of the helmet shell in the rear end region thereof and is therefore readily accessible even when the helmet is put on if an adjustment of the strap should be desired.
  • the tape runs as far as possible on the inside of the middle part and the side parts, whereby to at least part of the receptacles for the band is formed by slot-shaped recesses in the helmet shell part, through which the band runs between the inside and the outside of the helmet shell parts and can change from one side to the other.
  • a part of the receptacles for the tape may consist of webs cranked partially from the wall of the helmet shell part, in their place the wall of the helmet shell parts is provided with windows, so that, in particular in the case of helmet shell parts made of plastic, the webs are formed directly from the material of the shell wall can.
  • the traction means expediently runs at least in sections between the wall and the jacket.
  • the joints separate the middle part and the side parts from each other over the entire length of the middle part, so that the middle part and the side parts are connected only by the traction means.
  • the middle part can be provided with ridges which run along the apex line and are provided with windows between the ribs.
  • the side parts can be largely arbitrary with regard to their remaining configuration and can be designed according to the respective protective purposes of the helmet.
  • An embodiment which is very advantageous in this respect is characterized in that the side parts extend downwards over the ends of the middle part, are provided with open recesses for the ears and carry the connection of a chin strap in the region of their lower end.
  • the protective helmets shown in the drawing are intended for cyclists and have a three-part helmet shell, consisting of two side parts 1 lying opposite each other on the apex plane 5-5 of the helmet and a middle part 2 arching over the side parts 1 along the apex 5 ⁇ . Between the middle part 2 and the side parts 1 each have free joints 6 which separate the middle part 2 and the side parts 1 over the entire length of the middle part 1 and thereby enable the middle part 2 which is elastically bendable in the apex plane 5 in the sense of a change in its curvature in the apex plane 5 deform.
  • the side parts 1 and the middle part 2 are connected to one another by a band 3 which runs in a ring-like manner in a transverse plane 8-8 which is approximately perpendicular to the apex plane 5 and which passes through the two end regions 2.1, 2.2 of the middle part 2 and through the two side parts 1.
  • the band 3 is adjustable with regard to its ring circumference and can be locked in the desired ring circumference. It is in not shown anywhere in the drawing or recognizable recordings 9 on the middle part 2 and on the side parts 1.
  • the ends of the band 3 are connected by a buckle 4, which enables the band 3 to be adjusted.
  • the buckle 4 is arranged on the outside on the middle part 2 of the helmet shell in its rear end region 2.2.
  • the band 3 runs essentially on the inside of the middle part 2 and the side parts 1. At least part of the receptacles 9 for the band 3 are formed by slot-shaped recesses 9.1 in the helmet shell parts 1, 2, through which the band 3 between the inside and the outside of the helmet shell parts runs, as can be seen in the drawing only at the rear end region 2.2 of the middle part 2. A part of the receptacles 9 can also consist of webs 9.2 cranked inwards from the wall of the helmet shell parts, in their place the wall of the helmet shell parts is provided with windows 10, as is shown in the drawing using the example of the helmet side parts 1. Otherwise, the band 3 usually runs between the outer impact-resistant wall of the helmet shell parts and an inside shock-absorbing jacket 11 made of, for example, foam plastic.
  • the middle part 2 is with the apex line 5 ⁇ running, bead-shaped ribs 12th and provided with windows 13 between the ribs.
  • the middle part 2 has a transverse groove 14 running between the edge of the shell and the end of the window 13, in which the band 3 and the buckle 4 are recessed.
  • the side parts 1 extend downwards far beyond the ends 2.1, 2.2 of the middle part 2. They are provided with cutouts 15 for the ears of the helmet wearer and connected to a chin strap 16 in the lower end. If such a chin strap 16 is to be designed as a fork strap, as is shown in the case of FIG. 3, one end 16.1 of the fork strap is attached to the side part 1, the other 16.2 to the rear end of the middle part 2.
  • the protective helmet is adapted to the head size of the helmet wearer with the help of the strap 3. If the strap 3 is tightened in the buckle 4, the helmet width is reduced, if it is reduced in the buckle, the helmet width increases because the middle part 2 with its end areas 2.1, 2.2 is contracted accordingly far, or resiliently springs.
