Definitions
- the present invention relates to a device intended to ensure hygienic protection of the bottom of a headgear, in particular of a motorcycle helmet.
- the present invention aims to provide a protective device allowing the user to have a headgear maintained in conditions of comfort and satisfactory hygiene.
- the present invention thus relates to a protective device for headgear, in particular for a helmet, of the type comprising at least one sheet made of an absorbent material characterized in that the back of the absorbent sheet is secured to at least one deformable semi-rigid and / or elastic holding element intended to come into contact with the bottom surface of the headgear, and the deformation of which ensures the shaping and the maintenance thereon of the absorbent sheet.
- the back of the absorbent sheet which may consist of a microperforated sheet, comprises at least one adhesive zone.
- the semi-rigid and / or elastic deformable element consists of several sectors possibly joined together by a central part. Preferably the sectors will be sufficiently spaced to prevent them from touching when the protective device is in place. Each side of the sectors may be formed of a first portion of a rectilinear radial segment and of a second portion of rectilinear segment which extends towards the interior of the sector with respect to the first segment.
- the semi-rigid and / or elastic deformable element consists of four adjacent sectors with an angle of 90 ° to the center, so as to allow the protective device to be folded in four.
- Figure 1 is a plan view of an embodiment of a protective device according to the invention.
- Figure 2 is an elevational view in partial section of a helmet equipped with a protective device according to the invention.
- FIG. 3 is a plan view of a variant of the embodiment shown in FIG. 1.
- FIG 4 is a partial and enlarged plan view of an alternative embodiment of the invention.
- a protective device 1 according to the invention.
- This consists of a disc 2 made of a sheet of absorbent material, such as in particular cellulose wadding, which is fixed to a holding element 13 made of a thin sheet made of a deformable material and semi-rigid, for example cardboard.
- deformable and semi-rigid material is meant a material capable not only of being deformed under the effect of a stress but capable of then retaining the shape which has been given to it, while nevertheless retaining elasticity characteristics. .
- This sheet 13 comprises a series of sectors 9 separated by cut zones 11, these sectors 9 being interconnected by their central part 10. The fastening of the holding element 13 with the disc 2 of absorbent material is ensured in particular by bonding .
- a motorcycle helmet 5 usually comprises a padding disc 4 fixed on the internal face of the wall 7 of the helmet 5.
- the sectors 9 against the internal wall of the helmet 5, which thus brings the internal surface of the helmet into line with the protective device.
- the retaining element 13 tends to apply the protective device against the internal walls of the helmet 5, which thus ensures its maintenance inside the latter.
- the present device has the particularity to adapt to any type of helmets, as well those whose bottom includes a padding, like the helmets of motorcyclists, that the helmets of firefighters whose bottoms comprise nets, or the helmets military with straps. Furthermore, the adaptation takes place instantly.
- the low cost price of the protective device according to the invention makes it possible to market it as a disposable product.
- the retaining and shaping sheet may of course not be produced in a single piece as in the embodiment shown in Figure 1.
- a protective device including the retaining sheet and shaping consists of four elements 13a, 13b, 13c and 13d each formed of three sectors 9a connected together by their central part 10a.
- the folding of the protection device is favored by the presence of the semi-rigid elements or elastic which constitute a folding guide for the absorbent parts making it possible to fold the protective device around the orthogonal lines xx 'and yy' marking the limits of each of the elements 13a, 13b, 13c and 13d, which makes it possible to reduce its bulk.
- this mode of implementation allows an easy and rapid adaptation of the device with the base of the headgear and immediate compliance thereof with the skull of the user. It is possible to produce in one piece the absorbent element and the retaining element.
- the latter can thus for example consist of an extra thickness of the absorbent element 2, which has the advantage of easier manufacture.
- the holding element can also be constituted by different embossed zones produced from the absorbent sheet.
- each side of sectors 9 or 9a may not consist of a straight segment, but of two segment parts, namely a first segment part 15 which is radial and a second segment part 16 which extends inward relative to the first. It has been found that such an arrangement allows better shaping of the protective device.
- the absorbent part of the disc 2 can be treated by means of antibacterial products, which makes it possible to improve the hygienic qualities provided by it, or also by means of perfumery products. and / or in particular colored reagents making it possible to detect the sebum or the sweat of the user.
- the fixing of the elastic deformable layer and of the absorbent element can be completed by means of adhesives, but also by any mechanical process.
- the elastic deformable elements may have been micro-punched so as to confer porosity on the elastic deformable layer, which promotes breathing of the scalp.
