Abstract

The motorcycle helmet has a main shell (1) covering the head, and a chin section (2) which swings between a lower closed setting and an upper open position at the shell. The swing visor (9) pivots on the chin section between open and closed positions. The chin section has a force on it in the opening direction (O), and the swing movement is damped by a brake unit (21) with a housing (22) where a viscous fluid dampens a rotor, which is coupled to an external brake pinion (23) by a shaft. The pinion meshes with teeth (24) at the main swing unit (11).

Description

Die Erfindung betrifft einen Motorrad-Integralhelm mit den im Oberbegriff des Anspruches 1 angegebenen Merkmalen.The invention relates to a motorcycle full-face helmet with the in the preamble of claim 1 specified features.

Derartige Helme sind auf dem Markt in unterschiedlichen Ausführungsformen erhältlich. Deren gemeinsame Hauptmerkmale sind die das Helm-Hauptteil bildende Helmschale und ein separates Kinnteil, das zwischen einer heruntergeklappten Schließstellung und einer hochgeklappten Offenstellung schwenkbar an der Helmschale gelagert ist. In diesem Merkmal unterscheidet sich der anmeldungsgemäße Integralhelm von üblichen starren Integralhelmen, bei denen das Kinnteil als einstückig an die Helmschale angeformte Bügel vor der Kinnpartie des Trägers verläuft. Demgegenüber ist das Kinnteil des anmeldungsgemäßen Helmes nach oben wegklappbar, um dem Träger beispielsweise während Fahrpausen die Möglichkeit zu geben, ohne Absetzen des Helmes ohne Behinderung durch das Kinnteil zu sprechen.Such helmets are on the market in different forms available. Their main common features are the helmet main part forming helmet shell and a separate chin part that between a folded down closed position and a folded open position is pivotally mounted on the helmet shell. In this feature the full-face helmet according to the application differs from the usual rigid Full-face helmets in which the chin part is integral to the helmet shell molded bracket runs in front of the chin area of the wearer. In contrast, the chin part of the helmet according to the application can be folded upwards, to give the wearer the opportunity, for example, during breaks to give without taking off the helmet without being hindered by the To speak chin part.

Schließlich ist bei derartigen Integralhelmen regelmäßig ein Visierteil vorgesehen, das zwischen einer Schließstellung und einer Offenstellung am Kinnteil schwenkbar gelagert ist.Finally, a visor part is regularly provided in such integral helmets, that between a closed position and an open position on Chin part is pivotally mounted.

Die vorstehend erörterten Motorrad-Integralhelme bekannter Art weisen hinsichtlich ihrer Komforteigenschaften und Handhabung diverse Nachteile auf. So ist das Kinnteil eine relativ voluminöse Einheit, die etwa 1/4 bis 1/5 des Gewichtes des Gesamthelmes ausmacht. Insoweit ist beim Hochklappen des Kinnteils eine relativ hohe Kraft aufzubringen, was die Handhabung erschwert. The motorcycle full-face helmets of known type discussed above have various disadvantages with regard to their comfort properties and handling on. So the chin part is a relatively voluminous unit that is about 1/4 to 1/5 of the weight of the entire helmet. So far is when folding up the chin part to apply a relatively high force, which is handling difficult.

Ein weiteres Problem besteht darin, daß sowohl beim Auf- als auch Zuklappen das Kinnteil schwerkraftbedingt nach dem Überfahren seiner höchsten Position nach unten fällt und am Ende seiner Schwenkbewegung relativ unsanft durch die entsprechenden Schwenkanschläge an der Helmschale gebremst wird. Um dies zu vermeiden, muß der Helmträger darauf achten, das Kinnteil während des Hoch- oder Herunterklappens nicht loszulassen.Another problem is that both when opening and closing the chin part due to gravity after running over it highest position falls down and at the end of its pivoting movement relatively rough due to the corresponding swivel stops on the helmet shell is braked. To avoid this, the helmet wearer must put it on take care not to let go of the chin part while folding it up or down.

Ausgehend von den geschilderten Nachteilen des Standes der Technik liegt der Erfindung die Aufgabe zugrunde, einen Motorrad-Integralhelm der gattungsgemäßen Art in seinem Komfort- und Handhabungseigenschaften zu verbessern.Based on the described disadvantages of the prior art the invention has for its object a motorcycle full-face helmet of the generic type Kind in its comfort and handling properties too improve.

Diese Aufgabe wird durch die im Kennzeichnungsteil des Anspruches 1 angegebenen Merkmale gelöst. Demnach ist das Kinnteil in Öffnungsrichtung seiner Schwenkbewegung kraftbeaufschlagt, so daß zumindest ein Teil der Gewichtskraft, insbesondere beim Hochklappen des Kinnteils, nicht von Hand aufgebracht werden muß. Die Betätigung des Kinnteils ist damit deutlich leichtgängiger zu realisieren. Die ferner vorgesehen Visco-Bremse zur Dämpfung der Schwenkbewegung verhindert, daß das Kinnteil - insbesondere jetzt unter dem Einfluß seiner zusätzlichen Kraftbeaufschlagung - bei einem Loslassen hart in den Endpunkten der Schwenkbewegung anschlägt. Vielmehr wird insgesamt und insbesondere durch das Zusammenwirken von Kraftbeaufschlagung und Visco-Bremse ein gleichmäßiger, sanfter Lauf des Kinnteils, insbesondere nach Passieren seines oberen Scheitelpunkts, erreicht.This object is achieved by the in the characterizing part of claim 1 specified features solved. Accordingly, the chin part is in the opening direction its pivotal movement is applied so that at least one Part of the weight, especially when the chin part is folded up, does not have to be applied by hand. The chin part is actuated thus much easier to implement. The visco brake also provided to dampen the pivoting movement prevents the chin part - especially now under the influence of his additional force - When released, hard in the end points of the swivel movement strikes. Rather, overall and in particular through that Interaction of force application and visco brake an even, smooth running of the chin part, especially after passing it upper vertex.

1 and 2
schematic side views of a motorcycle full-face helmet with the chin part in the closed or open swivel position.

Wie aus Fig. 1 und 2 deutlich wird, wird das Helm-Hauptteil durch die eigentliche Helmschale 1 gebildet, die in üblicher Weise in der Grobform einer Kalotte mit einem frontseitigen Gesichtsausschnitt 2 gebildet ist. Die Helmschale 1 ist - wie nicht eigens dargestellt - im Inneren in üblicher Weise gepolstert und mit einem Kinnriemen versehen. Außenseitig trägt die Helmschale 1 verschiedene aerodynamische An- und Einformungen, wie die umlaufende, schmale Randschürze 3 und die eine Abrißkante 4 ausbildende, flache Vertiefung 5 im Hinterkopfbereich.As is clear from Fig. 1 and 2, the main helmet part is by the actual Helmet shell 1 formed in the usual way in the rough form a calotte is formed with a front cutout 2 on the front. The Helmet shell 1 is - as not specifically shown - inside in the usual way Padded and with a chin strap. Wears on the outside the helmet shell 1 different aerodynamic molding and molding, like the circumferential, narrow edge apron 3 and the one tear-off edge 4 forming, shallow depression 5 in the back of the head.

An der Helmschale 1 ist ein Kinnteil 6 schwenkbar gelagert, das im wesentlichen durch zwei seitliche, im Schläfen- und Ohrenbereich links und rechts mit der Helmschale 1 überlappende Wangen 7 und einen diese beiden Wangen 7 verbindenden, einstückig ausgeformten Kinnbügel 8 gebildet ist. In der in Fig. 1 gezeigten geschlossenen Stellung weist der Helm das Erscheinungsbild eines üblichen Voll-Integralhelmes mit starren Kinnbügel 8 auf. Durch das Hochschwenken des Kinnteils 6 wird praktisch der gesamte Gesichtsausschnitt 2 freigegeben (Fig. 2). Die dabei die Schwenkbewegung ermöglichende Lagerkonstruktion wird im folgenden noch näher beschrieben. Im übrigen ist das Kinnteil 6 in seiner geschlossenen Position durch eine nicht näher dargestellte Verrastung mit der Helmschale 2 verbunden. On the helmet shell 1, a chin part 6 is pivotally mounted, which essentially through two lateral, in the temple and ear area on the left and cheeks 7 overlapping with helmet shell 1 and one of these two Cheeks 7 connecting, integrally formed chin strap 8 is formed is. In the closed position shown in Fig. 1, the helmet has the appearance of a normal full-face helmet with a rigid chin guard 8 on. By pivoting the chin part 6 is practically the entire face section 2 released (Fig. 2). The doing the swivel movement enabling bearing construction is described in more detail below described. In addition, the chin part 6 is in its closed position connected to the helmet shell 2 by a not shown latching.

Zum Schutz der Augen des Trägers gegen Fahrtwind, Wettereinflüsse und Fremdkörper ist am Kinnteil 6 ein Visierteil 9 oberhalb des Kinnbügels 8 schwenkbar angelenkt, das separat oder gemeinsam mit dem Kinnteil 6 wegschwenkbar ist. Die Lagerung des Visierteils 9 am Kinnteil 6 ist in bekannter Weise ausgeführt und der Übersichtlichkeit halber in den Zeichnungen ebenfalls nicht dargestellt.To protect the wearer's eyes against wind, weather and A visor part 9 above the chin guard 8 is a foreign body on the chin part 6 pivoted articulated separately or together with the chin part 6 is pivotable away. The mounting of the visor part 9 on the chin part 6 is known Executed in a manner and for the sake of clarity in the drawings also not shown.

Die Schwenklagerkonstruktion für das Kinnteil 6 ist in Fig. 1 und 2 zur besseren Erkennbarkeit in durchgezogenen Linien dargestellt. In der Praxis sind die entsprechenden Bauteile natürlich nicht einsehbar von außen zwischen der Helmschale 1 und dem Kinnteil 6 plaziert.The pivot bearing construction for the chin part 6 is in FIGS. 1 and 2 better visibility in solid lines. In practice the corresponding components are of course not visible from the outside between the helmet shell 1 and the chin part 6 placed.

Wie nun aus den beiden Zeichnungen erkennbar ist, ist das Kinnteil 6 über zwei seitlich im Überlappungsbereich zwischen Helmschale 1 und den Wangen 7 des Kinnteils 6 angeordnete, übereinstimmende Lenkeranordnungen 10 schwenkbar an der Helmschale 1 gelagert, von denen in den Zeichnungen lediglich die linke Seite des Helmes mit der dortigen Lenkeranordnung 10 erkennbar ist. Diese besteht aus einem in Fahrtrichtung gesehen hinteren Hauptlenker 11, der über seine Schwenkachse 12 drehbar an der Helmschale 1 gelagert ist. Am freien Ende des Hauptlenkers 11 ist über einen ersten Anlenkpunkt 13 das Kinnteil 6 angekoppelt.As can now be seen from the two drawings, the chin part 6 is over two laterally in the overlap area between helmet shell 1 and the Cheeks 7 of the chin part 6 arranged, matching handlebar arrangements 10 pivotally mounted on the helmet shell 1, of which in the Drawings only the left side of the helmet with the handlebar arrangement there 10 is recognizable. This consists of one seen in the direction of travel rear main link 11, which is rotatable about its pivot axis 12 the helmet shell 1 is stored. At the free end of the main link 11 is over the chin part 6 is coupled to a first articulation point 13.

In Fahrtrichtung vor dem Hauptlenker 11 ist ein Hilfslenker 14 über seine Schwenkachse 15 an der Helmschale 1 drehbar gelagert. An seinem freien Ende ist über einen weiteren Anlenkpunkt 16 wiederum das Kinnteil 6 angelenkt, so daß aufgrund der Doppellenkeranordnung 11, 14 das Kinnteil 6 eine Kinematik nach Art einer Viergelenk-Kette bei der Schwenkbewegung an den Tag legt. Durch die Positionierung und Auslegung der Lenker 11, 14 ist dabei gewährleistet, daß ausgehend von der geschlossenen Stellung (Fig. 1) in Öffnungsrichtung O das Kinnteil 6 zuerst im wesentlichen eine Aufwärtsbewegung macht, um es nach oben zu öffnen. Danach schließt sich die Schwenkbewegung zum Aufklappen des Kinnteils 6 nach oben-hinten an. Zur Erzielung dieser Kinematik liegen die beiden Schwenkachsen 12, 15 etwa auf gleicher Höhe. Hauptlenker 11 und Hilfslenker 14 weisen in der geschlossenen Stellung in einem Winkel von etwa 45 ° zur Horizontalen nach vorne-oben bzw. vorne-unten, so daß die beiden Lenker 11, 14 mit ihren Längsachsen einen Winkel W von ca. 90 ° einschließen. Dieser Winkel ist in der Offenstellung (Fig. 2) etwas verringert, die beiden Lenker 11, 14 weisen nach hinten entgegen der Fahrtrichtung bzw. schräg nach oben.In the direction of travel in front of the main link 11 is an auxiliary link 14 over his Pivot axis 15 rotatably mounted on the helmet shell 1. At his free At the end, the chin part 6 is again articulated via a further articulation point 16, so that due to the double link arrangement 11, 14 the chin part 6 kinematics like a four-link chain when swiveling shows. By positioning and designing the handlebars 11, 14 ensures that starting from the closed position (Fig. 1) in the opening direction O, the chin part 6 essentially first makes an upward movement to open it upwards. After that the pivoting movement for opening the chin part 6 closes top-back. The two lie to achieve this kinematics Swivel axes 12, 15 at approximately the same height. Main link 11 and auxiliary link 14 point in the closed position at an angle of about 45 ° to the horizontal to the front-up or front-down, so that the two Include handlebars 11, 14 with their longitudinal axes at an angle W of approximately 90 °. This angle is somewhat reduced in the open position (FIG. 2), the two links 11, 14 point to the rear against the direction of travel or diagonally upwards.

Wie aus den beiden Figuren hervorgeht, ist der Hauptlenker 11 in Draufsicht etwa birnenförmig gestaltet, so daß um seine Schwenkachse 12 herum ein Aufhahmeraum 17 für eine Spiralfeder 18 geschaffen wird. Diese stützt sich mit ihrem inneren Endschenkel 19 an der Helmschale 1 und mit ihrem äußeren Endschenkel 20 am Hauptlenker 11 selbst ab. Die Spiralfeder 18 ist dabei so unter Vorspannung eingesetzt, daß sie den Hauptlenker 11 und damit das Kinnteil 6 in Öffnungsrichtung O der Schwenkbewegung federkraftbeaufschlagt, so daß die vom Träger des Helms aufzuwendende Betätigungskraft in dieser Richtung erheblich vermindert wird.As can be seen from the two figures, the main link 11 is in plan view approximately pear-shaped, so that around its pivot axis 12 a receiving space 17 for a coil spring 18 is created. This supports yourself with her inner end leg 19 on the helmet shell 1 and with her outer end leg 20 on the main link 11 itself. The coil spring 18 is used under tension so that the main link 11 and so that the chin part 6 is subjected to spring force in the opening direction O of the pivoting movement, so that the operating force to be applied by the wearer of the helmet is significantly reduced in this direction.

Zur Dämpfung der Schwenkbewegung des Kinnteils 6 in und entgegen der Öffnungsrichtung O ist schließlich eine als Ganzes mit 21 bezeichnete Visco-Bremse vorgesehen. Diese Visco-Bremse 21 als solche ist ein im Bereich der Automobil-Zulieferindustrie gängiges Bauelement, das zur Dämpfung von Schwenkbewegungen, beispielsweise von ausklappbaren Aschenbechern oder Getränkedosenhaltern in Fahrzeugen, verwendet wird. Die Visco-Bremse 21 weist ein Gehäuse 22 auf, in dem ein durch eine Visco-Flüssigkeit gedämpfter Rotor läuft. Dieser ist über eine Welle mit dem außenliegenden Bremsritzel 23 gekoppelt. Die Visco-Bremse 21 ist in Nachbarschaft zu dem Hauptlenker 11 montiert. Die Kopplung zwischen diesen beiden Bauteilen erfolgt durch eine Zahnung 24, die sich über eine Teillänge am Umfang des den Aufnahmeraum 17 bildenden Hauptlenkerabschnittes erstreckt. Das Bremsritzel 23 steht mit dieser Zahnung 24 in Eingriff, so daß bei einer Drehung des Hauptlenkers 11 das Bremsritzel 23 in Rotation versetzt wird. Durch die Bremswirkung der Visco-Bremse 21 wird diese Rotationsbewegung und damit die Schwenkbewegung des Hauptlenkers 11 und damit wiederum die des Kinnteils 6 gedämpft.To dampen the pivoting movement of the chin part 6 in and against the Finally, opening direction O is a visco brake designated as a whole by 21 intended. This visco brake 21 as such is one in the range the automotive component industry common component that for Damping swiveling movements, for example fold-out movements Ashtrays or beverage can holders in vehicles. The viscous brake 21 has a housing 22 in which a viscous fluid flows damped rotor runs. This is over a wave with the outer brake pinion 23 coupled. The visco brake 21 is in Neighborhood to the main link 11 mounted. The coupling between These two components are made by a toothing 24, which over a Partial length on the circumference of the main link section forming the receiving space 17 extends. The brake pinion 23 is in this toothing 24 Engagement so that when the main link 11 rotates, the brake pinion 23rd is set in rotation. Due to the braking effect of the visco brake 21 this rotational movement and thus the swiveling movement of the Main link 11 and thus in turn that of the chin part 6 damped.
