Definitions

  • the invention relates to a bicycle helmet, as used by cyclists to protect their heads.
  • the bicycle helmet has a shell-like base body, which consists of a shock-absorbing plastic material. Except for a peripheral edge area, the base body is covered from the outside by a decorative shell for a visually pleasing design.
  • Bicycle helmets of the type mentioned are known. They are available for different head sizes. In addition, a large number of different decorative bowls are known.
  • the object of the invention is to provide an improved bicycle helmet.
  • the bicycle helmet according to the invention is accordingly characterized in that at least a portion of its outside is filled with self-illuminating paint.
  • a method according to the invention for producing such a bicycle helmet is the subject of claim 5.
  • the invention is therefore based on the knowledge that such a bicycle helmet is visually very well recognized in the dark. Cyclists equipped with such a helmet can thus be better recognized in the dark by other motorized road users who may endanger them than has previously been the case with bicycle helmets not provided with a self-illuminating color.
  • Self-luminous color is known per se and is used in fire helmets. Surprisingly, such a measure has not yet been applied to bicycle helmets.
  • the self-illuminating color is present on the outside of the helmet in the form of luminous elements, such as stars in particular.
  • the self-illuminating color areas can also have a different appearance, such as the appearance of road traffic signs.
  • the helmet which is clearly visible in the dark due to the self-luminous color, can convey not only an optical but also a conceptual warning or other indication; for example, traffic signs in the form of no-drive symbols may be present on the helmet.
  • the color on the front of the helmet can also differ from that on the back of the helmet, so that the direction of travel of the cyclist can also be seen on the basis of the color alone.
  • the areas provided with self-luminous paint are preferably located on the outer decorative shell.
  • FIG. 1 shows a perspective view of a bicycle helmet according to the invention.
  • the bicycle helmet 10 shown in FIG. 1 consists of a base body 12 to which a decorative shell 14 is attached from above. Openings 16 pass through the base body 12 and through the decorative shell 14 and are closed by nets 18 at least in the front region. Air can get through the openings 16 to the top of the head of the cyclist wearing the helmet, so that no unpleasant heat build-up can form under the helmet.
  • the nets 18 prevent flies or mosquitoes from reaching the scalp through the openings 16 through the airstream.
  • the areas 60 occupied by the star shape are self-luminous Color filled in. This color is commercially available in the form of powder.
  • the powder is dissolved in clear lacquer.
  • the liquid mass is then applied to the decorative shell, which is still present as a flat plate, using the screen printing process.
  • the decorative shell in its plastic form is then produced from this flat plate by deep drawing.
  • the self-luminous color is commercially available as a phosphorescent pigment pigment.
