Abstract

A device for protecting crash helmets (9) for two-wheeled vehicles from theft and the weather comprises a plastic bag (1) with an opening for inserting the crash helmet which can be closed by a watertight zip fastener (2). A cord (3) is attached to one end of the zip fastener (2) and a eye (5) for the passage of the cord (3) is arranged on the other end of the zip fastener (2). The two ends of the cord (3) can be brought together and secured in this position by means of a clasp (4, 6). This arrangement effectively protects the crash helmet against theft and the weather.

Description

Die Erfindung betrifft einen Diebstahl- und Wetterschutz für Sturzhelme von Zwei radfahrern.The invention relates to theft and weather protection for helmets of two cyclists.

Durch die zunehmende Verkehrsdichte auf den Straßen muß der Sicherheit ein immer größer werdendes Augenmerk geschenkt werden. Einerseits durch einschlägige Vorschriften, andererseits durch ein geändertes Sicherheitsbewußt sein der Verkehrsteilnehmer, sind Sturzhelme ein unverzichtbares Zubehörteil des Zwei radfahrers geworden. Sturzhelme sind aber relativ groß und unhandlich, sodaß es erwünscht ist, sie beim Verlassen des Fahrzeuges zurückzulassen und gegen Diebstahl und Wetter zu schützen.Due to the increasing traffic density on the roads, safety has to be given increasing attention. On the one hand due to relevant regulations, on the other hand due to a changed safety awareness of road users, helmets have become an indispensable accessory for two-wheelers. However, helmets are relatively large and unwieldy, so it is desirable to leave them behind when you leave the vehicle and to protect them against theft and weather.

Bei herkömmlichen Ausführungen des Diebstahlschutzes geschieht dies nur unzureichend. Zwar sind mehr oder weniger aufwendige Methoden des Diebstahlschutzes bekannt, doch keine dieser Methoden schützt den Helm gegen Wettereinflüsse, insbesondere gegen Regen, Schnee od.dgl. Bei den herkömmlichen Methoden wird beim Verwahren des Helmes, wie z.B. nach der DE-AS 27 00 470 bekannt ist, dieser mittels eines mit dem Helm fest verbundenen flexiblen Bügels an einem Teil des Fahrzeuges angehängt. Der Bügel ist beim Benützen um den Helm gelegt. Andere Methoden verwenden zum diebstahlssicheren Verwahren ein festes System von Bügeln, das z.B. am Tank montiert ist.In conventional anti-theft versions, this happens only insufficiently. More or less complex methods of theft protection are known, but none of these methods protect the helmet against weather influences, in particular against rain, snow or the like. In the conventional methods, when storing the helmet, e.g. according to DE-AS 27 00 470 is known, this is attached to a part of the vehicle by means of a flexible strap firmly connected to the helmet. The strap is placed around the helmet when in use. Other methods use a fixed system of hangers for theft-proof storage, e.g. is mounted on the tank.

Das der Erfindung zugrunde liegende Problem, einerseits den Sturzhelm von unbefugtem Zugriff zu verwahren, anderseits ihn vor Regen, Schnee od.dgl. zu schützen, wird gelöst durch einen Kunststoffbeutel, dessen Einbringöffnung für den Sturzhelm einen wasserdichten Reißverschluß aufweist, an dessen einem Ende das Ende eines in den Kunststoffbeutel ragenden Seiles befestigt und an dessen anderem Ende eine Durchstecköse für das Seil angeordnet ist, wobei die beiden Enden des Seiles in einer zueinander gebrachten Lage mittels eines Schlosses fixierbar sind.The problem underlying the invention, on the one hand to keep the helmet from unauthorized access, and on the other hand to protect it from rain, snow or the like. To protect, is solved by a plastic bag, the insertion opening for the helmet has a waterproof zipper, at one end the end of a rope protruding into the plastic bag attached and on the other end of which is arranged a push-through eye for the rope, the two ends of the rope being fixable in a position brought together by means of a lock.

Eine Ausführungsform der Erfindung sieht vor, daß an den beiden Enden des Seiles die miteinander zusammenwirkenden Teile eines Steckschlosses angeordnet sind.One embodiment of the invention provides that the interacting parts of a plug lock are arranged at the two ends of the rope.

Zweckmäßig ist die Zuglasche des Reißverschlusses mit einer Öse zum Durchstecken des Seiles versehen. Dadurch kann der Reißverschluß nur nach Aufsperren des Schlosses geöffnet werden.The pull tab of the zipper is expediently provided with an eyelet for pushing the rope through. This means that the zipper can only be opened after unlocking the lock.

Nachstehend wird die Erfindung an Hand der Zeichnungen näher erläutert. Dabei zeigt Fig.1 einen durchsichtigen Kunststoffbeutel mit eingelegtem Sturzhelm und Fig.2 stellt den geschlossenen und am Gepäckträger eines Zwei radfahrzeuges befestigten Beutel dar.The invention is explained in more detail below with reference to the drawings. 1 shows a transparent plastic bag with an inserted helmet and FIG. 2 shows the closed bag attached to the luggage rack of a two-wheeled vehicle.

Die Fig.1 und 2 zeigen einen Kunststoffbeutel 1, der durch einen wasserdichten Reißverschluß 2 verschlossen werden kann. An einem Ende des Reißverschlusses 2 ist das Ende eines Seiles 3 befestigt, das mit dem Verschlußteil 4 eines handelsüblichen Steckschlosses verbunden ist. Am anderen Ende des Reißverschlusses 2 ist eine Durchstecköse 5 für das Seil 3 bzw. den Einsteckteil 6 des Steckschlosses angeordnet. Auch die Zuglasche 7 des Reißverschlusses 2 weist eine Öse 8 zum Durchstecken des Seiles 3 bzw. des Einsteckteiles 6 auf.1 and 2 show a plastic bag 1, which can be closed by a waterproof zipper 2. At one end of the zipper 2, the end of a rope 3 is attached, which is connected to the closure part 4 of a standard mortise lock. At the other end of the zipper 2, a push-through eyelet 5 for the cable 3 or the plug-in part 6 of the plug lock is arranged. The pull tab 7 of the zipper 2 also has an eyelet 8 for pushing through the rope 3 or the plug-in part 6.

Um einen Sturzhelm 9 sicher zu verwahren, wird dieser in den Kunststoffbeutel 1 gesteckt, das Seil 3 durch dessen Kinnschutz sowie durch die Ösen 5 und 8 durchgeführt und schließlich der Einsteckteil 6 in den Verschlußteil 4 eingesteckt. Wird dabei z.B. der Holm 10 eines Gepäckträgers eingeschlossen, ist der Sturzhelm 9 sicher verwahrt.In order to keep a helmet 9 safe, it is inserted into the plastic bag 1, the rope 3 is passed through its chin guard and through the eyelets 5 and 8, and finally the insertion part 6 is inserted into the closure part 4. Is e.g. including the spar 10 of a luggage rack, the helmet 9 is safely stored.

Dadurch, daß das Seil 3 auch durch die Öse 8 der Zuglasche 7 gesteckt ist, kann der Reißverschluß 2 nicht geöffnet werden. Der Kunststoffbeutel 1 kann somit auch universell zum Aufbewahren von Gebrauchsgegenständen Verwendung finden.Because the rope 3 is also inserted through the eyelet 8 of the pull tab 7, the zipper 2 cannot be opened. The plastic bag 1 can thus also be used universally for storing everyday objects.

Im Rahmen der Erfindung sind zahlreiche Abänderungen möglich. So könnten statt des Steckschlosses an beiden Enden des Seiles Ösen angeordnet sein, durch die beim Verschließen ein Vorhangschloß gesteckt wird. Auch müßte das Seil nicht unbedingt durch die Zuglasche des Reißverschlusses gesteckt werden, weil auch ohne einem solchen Durchstecken das Öffnen des Reißverschlusses erschwert, die Entnahme eines Gegenstandes aus dem Kunststoffbeutel praktisch unmöglich gemacht ist. Der Beutel 1 kann aus den verschiedensten Materialien bestehen und insbesondere auch durch eingelegte Drahtgeflechte od.dgl. verstärkt sein. Überhaupt ist der Begriff "Kunststoffbeutel" im weitesten Sinne dieses Wortes zu verstehen.Numerous modifications are possible within the scope of the invention. Instead of the plug lock, eyelets could be arranged at both ends of the rope, through which a padlock is inserted when closing. Also, the rope would not necessarily have to be inserted through the pull tab of the zipper, because even without such a pushing through it makes opening the zipper difficult, the removal of an object from the plastic bag is made practically impossible. The bag 1 can be made from a wide variety of materials and in particular also through inlaid wire mesh or the like. be reinforced. In general, the term "plastic bag" is to be understood in the broadest sense of this word.
