Description

Die Erfindung betrifft einen Schutzhelm für Motorradfahrer mit einer Schale, einem mit der Schale lösbar verbundenen Kinnbügel und einem schwenkbaren Visier, wobei die Schale und der Kinnbügel aus einem schlagfesten Material bestehen und mit einer Polsterung ausgekleidet sind (siehe GB-A-2 175 490).The invention relates to a protective helmet for motorcyclists with a shell, a chin strap detachably connected to the shell and a swiveling one Visor, the shell and chin guard are made of an impact-resistant material and are lined with padding (see GB-A-2 175 490).

Bei einem bekannten Schutzhelm dieser Gattung sind der Kinnbügel und das Visier mit der Schale schwenkbar verbunden, wobei die horizontale Schwenkachse ungefähr in Stirnhöhe angeordnet ist. Das Visier kann entweder alleine oder zusammen mit dem Kinnbügel nach oben verschwenkt werden, so daß der Fahrer ein freies Gesichtsfeld hat. In diesem Zustand ist der Schutzhelm mit einem sogenannten Jethelm vergleichbar, der keinen Kinnbügel und kein Visier aufweist. Da das Visier im nach oben geschwenkten Zustand mitunter als störend empfunden wird, kann es auch gänzlich abgenommen werden. In diesem Fall muß aber nachtraglich ein zusätzliches Stirnteil an der Schale angebracht werden, weil andernfalls keine gesicherte Verbindung des Kinnbügels mit der Schale besteht. In a known hard hat of this type, the chin guard and that Visor pivotally connected to the shell, with the horizontal pivot axis is arranged approximately at forehead height. The visor can either be used alone or together be pivoted upwards with the chin guard, so that the driver is one has a clear field of vision. In this state, the protective helmet with a so-called Comparable jet helmet, which has no chin guard and no visor. Since that Visor, when swung upwards, is sometimes perceived as annoying, it can also be completely removed. In this case, however, must be added an additional forehead can be attached to the shell, otherwise none there is a secure connection between the chin guard and the shell.

Der Erfindung liegt die Aufgabe zugrunde, den gattungsgemäßen Schutzhelm hinsichtlich seiner Wandelbarkeit weiterzubilden.The invention has for its object the generic hard hat to further develop its changeability.

Erfindungsgemäß wird diese Aufgabe dadurch gelöst, daß der Kinnbügel mit der Schale starr verbunden ist und daß das Visier mit dem Kinnbügel schwenkbar verbunden ist.According to the invention this object is achieved in that the chin guard with the shell is rigidly connected and that the visor is pivotable with the chin guard connected is.

Da der Kinnbügel mit der Schale starr verbunden ist, ist der erfindungsgemäße Schutzhelm mit einem herkömmlichen einteiligen Integralhelm vergleichbar. Wenn andererseits der Kinnbügel von der Schale getrennt wird, dann ist der Schutzhelm mit einem herkömmlichen Jethelm vergleichbar. Der Schutzhelm kann daher rasch und einfach von einem Integralhelm in einen Jethelm umgewandelt werden und umgekehrt.Since the chin guard is rigidly connected to the shell, the invention is Hard hat comparable to a conventional one-piece full-face helmet. On the other hand, if the chin guard is separated from the shell, then that is Hard hat comparable to a conventional open face helmet. The hard hat can therefore quickly and easily converted from a full-face helmet to a jet helmet and vice versa.

Der Kinnbügel ist mit dem Helm vorzugsweise durch einen Rastverschluß verbunden. Zu diesem Zweck kann der Kinnbügel federnde Sperrzungen aufweisen, die in korrespondierende Schächte der Schale einführbar und verriegelbar sind.The chin guard is preferably connected to the helmet by a snap lock. For this purpose, the chin guard can have resilient locking tongues, which in Corresponding shafts of the shell can be inserted and locked.

Der Kinnbügel kann aber auch mit dem Helm verschraubt sein. Es kommt nur darauf an, daß der Kinnbügel im montierten Zustand mit der Schale starr verbunden ist, um die Kinnpartie des Fahrers optimal zu schützten.The chin guard can also be screwed to the helmet. It only comes that the chin guard is rigidly connected to the shell when assembled is to optimally protect the driver's chin.

Bei einer vorteilhaften Weiterbildung des erfindungsgemäßen Schutzhelms ist vorgesehen, daß das Visier im geöffneten Zustand in einem Spalt zwischen dem Kinnbügel und der zugehörigen Polsterung angeordnet ist. Das Visier ist daher im geöffneten, nach unten geschwenkten Zustand nicht nur gegen eine Verschmutzung oder Beschädigung geschützt, sondern es ergeben sich auch aerodynamische und akustische Vorteile.In an advantageous development of the protective helmet according to the invention provided that the visor in the open state in a gap between the Chin guard and the associated padding is arranged. The visor is therefore in the opened, swung down state not only against contamination or damage protected, but it also results in aerodynamic and acoustic advantages.

Zur Arretierung des Visiers im nach oben geschwenkten, geschlossen Zustand ist vorgesehen, daß das Visier oder der Kinnbügel Rastnocken aufweist, die mit korrespondierenden Ausnehmungen des Kinnbügels oder des Visiers in Eingriff bringbar sind. Die Rastnocken bzw. die Ausnehmungen können auch so angeordnet sein, daß das Visier in verschiedenen Schwenkstellungen arretierbar ist.To lock the visor in the swung up, closed state it is provided that the visor or the chin guard has locking cams with corresponding recesses of the chin guard or the visor in engagement are feasible. The locking cams or the recesses can also be arranged in this way be that the visor can be locked in different pivot positions.

Ein bevorzugtes Ausführungsbeispiel der Erfindung ist in den Zeichnungen dargestellt und wird nachfolgend näher erläutert. Es zeigt:

  • Fig. 1 eine schematische Seitenansicht eines Schutzhelms und eines Kinnbügels im getrennten Zustand, und
  • Fig. 2 einen horizontalen Schnitt durch den Kinnbügel.
  • A preferred embodiment of the invention is shown in the drawings and is explained in more detail below. It shows:
  • Fig. 1 is a schematic side view of a protective helmet and a chin guard in the separated state, and
  • Fig. 2 shows a horizontal section through the chin guard.
  • Wie aus Fig. 1 hervorgeht, umfaßt der gezeigte Schutzhelm für Motorradfahrer eine Schale 10 und einen Kinnbügel 11. Die mit einer (nicht gezeigten) Polsterung ausgekleidete Schale 10 bildet einen sogenannten Jethelm, der das Gesichtsfeld vollkommen freiläßt. Der Kinnbügel 11 ist mit zwei federnden Sperrzungen 12 versehen, die in zwei korrespondierende Schächte 13 der Schale 10 einführbar und verriegelbar sind. Die Ausbildung der Sperrzungen 12 bzw. der diese aufnehmenden Schächte 13 ist dem Fachmann bekannt und bedarf daher keiner näheren Erläuterungen. Es wird beispielsweise auf die lösbaren Steckverschlüsse von Sicherheitsgurten verwiesen. Wenn die Sperrzungen 12 in den Schächten 13 verriegelt sind, dann ist der Kinnbügel 11 mit der Schale 10 starr verbunden, so daß ein sogenannter Integralhelm geschaffen wird.As is apparent from Fig. 1, the protective helmet shown includes for motorcyclists a shell 10 and a chin guard 11. The one with a padding (not shown) lined shell 10 forms a so-called open face helmet that covers the visual field completely free. The chin guard 11 is provided with two resilient locking tongues 12 provided that in two corresponding shafts 13 of the shell 10 insertable and are lockable. The formation of the locking tongues 12 and the receiving them Manholes 13 are known to the person skilled in the art and therefore require no further explanation. It is used, for example, on the detachable buckles of seat belts directed. If the locking tongues 12 are locked in the shafts 13, then the chin guard 11 is rigidly connected to the shell 10, so that a so-called Full face helmet is created.

    Mit dem Kinnbügel 11 ist ein Visier 14 um eine horizontale Achse schwenkbar verbunden. Während die Schale 10 und der Kinnbügel 11 aus einem mechanisch widerstandsfähigen schlagfesten Material bestehen, besteht das Visier 14 aus einem kratzfesten transparenten Material.With the chin guard 11, a visor 14 is pivotable about a horizontal axis connected. While the shell 10 and the chin guard 11 are made of a mechanical Resistant impact-resistant material, the visor 14 consists of a scratch-resistant transparent material.

    Die Ausbildung des Kinnbügels 11 ist in dem horizontalen Schnitt nach Fig. 2 näher dargestellt. Der Kinnbügel 11 ist mit einer Polsterung 15 aus einem stoßdämpfenden Material ausgekleidet. Zwischen dem Kinnbügel 11 und der Polsterung 15 ist ein Spalt ausgespart, der zur Aufnahme des Visiers 14 dient. Das Visier ist im hinteren Bereich auf zwei Gelenkbolzen 16 schwenkbar gelagert, die in dem Kinnbügel 11 verankert sind. Das Visier 14 ist mit mehreren Rastnocken 17 versehen, die mit korrespondierenden Ausnehmungen 18 des Kinnbügels 11 in Eingriff bringbar sind. Das Visier 14 kann daher in verschiedenen Schwenkstellungen gegenüber dem Kinnbügel 11 arretiert werden. Im nach unten geschwenkten, geöffneten Zustand ist das Visier 14 vollständig oder zumindest nahezu vollständig in dem Kinnbügel 11 verborgen.The formation of the chin guard 11 is in the horizontal section according to FIG. 2 shown in more detail. The chin guard 11 is padded 15 from a shock absorbing Material lined. Between the chin guard 11 and the padding 15, a gap is left out which serves to receive the visor 14. The visor is in the rear area on two pivot pins 16 pivotally mounted in the chin guard 11 are anchored. The visor 14 is provided with a plurality of locking cams 17, which can be brought into engagement with corresponding recesses 18 of the chin guard 11 are. The visor 14 can therefore be in different pivot positions the chin guard 11 can be locked. In the swung down, open state is the visor 14 completely or at least almost completely in the chin guard 11 hidden.

    Der gezeigte Schutzhelm kann auf einfache Weise den Wünschen des Fahrers entsprechend abgewandelt werden. Zur normalen Straßenfahrt kann der Kinnbügel 11 dank der federnden Sperrzungen 12 mit der Schale 10 starr verbunden werden. Das Visier 14 kann zwischen der vollständig geschlossenen und der vollständig offenen Stellung verschwenkt und arretiert werden. Wenn der Fahrer jedoch auf eine stärkere Belüftung und auf ein freies Gesichtsfeld Wert legt, beispielsweise bei der Fahrt im Gelände, dann kann er den Kinnbügel 11 zusammen mit dem Visier 14 auf einfache Weise von der Schale 10 trennen. Zu diesem Zweck ist es lediglich erforderlich, die Sperrzungen 12 mit den entsprechenden Hinterschneidungen der Schale 10 außer Eingriff zu bringen. Das Visier 14 wird vorteilhafterweise vollständig nach unten geschwenkt, so daß es zwischen dem Kinnbügel 11 und der Polsterung 15 angeordnet und geschützt ist. In diesem Zustand nimmt der Kinnbügel 11 nur wenig Platz in Anspruch und kann daher ohne Schwierigkeiten verstaut werden.The safety helmet shown can easily meet the driver's wishes be modified accordingly. The chin guard can be used for normal road travel 11 rigidly connected to the shell 10 thanks to the resilient locking tongues 12 become. The visor 14 can be between the fully closed and the fully open position can be pivoted and locked. If the driver, however attaches great importance to ventilation and a clear field of vision, for example when driving off-road, he can use the chin guard 11 together with the visor 14 in a simple manner from the shell 10. For this purpose it is only required, the locking tongues 12 with the corresponding undercuts Disengage shell 10. The visor 14 is advantageously complete pivoted down so that it is between the chin guard 11 and the padding 15 is arranged and protected. In this state, the chin guard 11 only takes takes up little space and can therefore be easily stowed away.

    Wie aus der vorstehenden Beschreibung hervorgeht, kann der gezeigte Schutzhelm auf einfache Weise abgewandelt werden, so daß entweder ein herkömmlicher Integralhelm mit starr verbundenem Kinnbügel oder ein Jethelm geschaffen wird, bei dem das Gesichtsfeld völlig frei bleibt.As can be seen from the above description, the protective helmet shown can can be modified in a simple manner, so that either a conventional full-face helmet with rigidly attached chin guard or open face helmet is created at whose field of vision remains completely free.

    Der beschriebene Schutzhelm zeichnet sich nicht nur durch eine große Wandelbarkeit, sonders auch durch geringe Herstellungskosten aus.The safety helmet described is not only characterized by great versatility, especially characterized by low manufacturing costs.
