Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a riding helmet, commonly known as a bomb, generally comprising a shell rigid and a trim having an outer face that fits to the shell and an inner face adapted to fit the skull a user, usually a rider (US-A-5,718,004)
  • Helmets of this type cause the perspiration of the user, even if the filling consists of a thermally insulating material, such as, for example, expanded polystyrene. So far, no solution satisfactory has been found to solve this problem.
  • the present invention specifically relates to a helmet which solves this problem.
  • This goal is achieved by the fact that the helmet has air circulation means between the user's trim and skull and / or means of air circulation between the shell and the lining and that the means of circulation include at least one air flow formed in the packing, at least one air inlet formed in the front part of the hull and at least one air outlet formed in the rear part of the hull, the entry and the exit of air crossing the hull and communicating with the channel formed in the liner.
  • the helmet comprises at least one internal channel formed hollow in the inner face of the lining and at least one outer channel formed in the hollow outer face of the liner, the air inlet communicating with the internal channel through a hole through the part front of the liner, and the air outlet communicating with the internal channel through a hole through the part posterior of the filling.
  • the internal channel and the external channel are formed symmetrically with respect to a plane of symmetry of the hull and exit into two air outlets located at the left and to the right of the posterior part of the hull.
  • the helmet comprises a plurality of air inlets formed in the front of the hull, each air inlet directly communicating with a hollow channel in the outer face of the trim, a through hole being provided next to each air intake to put the inner channel of the liner into communication with the air inlets.
  • the air inlets are formed in a strip disposed in an opening of the shell.
  • This strip is, for example, made of an alloy of aluminum and titanium.
  • the cap is advantageously made of a material thermoplastic loaded with fiberglass and the filling is expanded polystyrene.
  • the lining advantageously comprises an airy fabric in the region of the internal channel or internal channels and a padding, for example foam-based, in the others regions.
  • FIG. 1 shows a general perspective view.
  • This helmet designated by the general reference 2
  • This helmet comprises a shell 4 rigid, also called cap.
  • the shell is formed of a thermoplastic material, such only polypropylene, loaded with glass fibers. She is externally covered with 6 spindles of fabric, usually black color.
  • a visor 8 is attached to the part front of the hull.
  • a chinstrap 10 makes it possible to retain the helmet 2 on the rider's head.
  • the 12 air intakes are four in number and they are formed in an elongated strip 14 disposed in an opening of the fore part of the hull 4.
  • the band 14 is made of an aluminum alloy and titanium. It is fixed to the hull 4 by any appropriate means, for example by means of rivets.
  • the banner 14 is not essential and, in another 12 air intakes could be provided directly in the hull 4.
  • a garnish also known as a quill, is arranged to the inside of the hull 4.
  • the liner 20 has a thickness relatively large compared to that of the hull. While the thickness of the shell 4 is typically 1 to 2 mm, the thickness of the lining is between 10 and 20 mm.
  • the lining 20 is made of a material such as expanded polystyrene.
  • a through hole 22 is provided in the liner 20 opposite of each of the air intakes 12 of the hull 4. There is therefore four holes 22 crossing the shell 20. The through holes 22 allow the admission of air entering through inlet openings 12 towards the inner face of the shell, as schematized by the arrows 24.
  • the lining 20 is shown in plan view on the Figure 3 and bottom view in Figure 4.
  • air circulation channels 26 are hollowed out in the thickness of the liner 20, and on the outer face of the latter.
  • Channels 26 are advantageously formed symmetrically with respect to the plane of symmetry P of the hull 20. They communicate with the holes through 22 which are also arranged symmetrically by compared to the plane of symmetry P.
  • the channels 26 open, to each of their respective ends, at the level of air outlets 16 located symmetrically with respect to the plane of symmetry P of the cap and, consequently, of the helmet 2 (see Figure 2).
  • a through hole 30 is provided in view of each air outlet 16 of the liner 20. The function of these through holes 30 will be explained in reference to Figure 4.
  • FIG. 4 shows a view of the internal face of 20.
  • a single channel 32 is formed in the thickness of this liner.
  • the channel 32 consists, on the one hand, of a zone 32a having an elongate shape disposed on the plane of symmetry P of the liner 20, symmetrically with respect to this plane.
  • the four through holes 22 open into the area 32a.
  • the channel 32 comprises two symmetrical arms 32b relative to the plane P and that communicate with the holes of through-flow 30 formed opposite the air outlets 16 of the hull 4.
  • the circulation of air in the helmet of the invention represented is as follows.
  • the air enters through the air intakes 12 provided in the hull 4.
  • the air is evacuated by the two symmetrical arms 32b, as schematized by the arrows 36, then passes through the lining 20 passing through the holes 30 at the end of the arms 32b, as schematized by the arrows 38, before being rejected outside, as shown schematically by the arrows 40 (see Figure 2), by the air outlets 16 located opposite the through holes 30 of the filling 20.
  • the air admitted by the air intakes 12 is partially divides into each of the four channels 26 formed in the outer wall of the liner 20.
  • the channels 26 converge towards an end 44 located opposite air outlets 16 when the liner 20 is placed at the interior of the hull 4.
  • the air circulates, according to the direction of the arrows 46, towards each of the two ends 44.
  • padding 50 for example based on foam, is provided for the interior of the upholstery 20.
  • the padding 50 does not cover nor the zone 32a into which the through-holes open 22, or the arms 32b by which the refrigeration air is evacuated to the through holes 30.
