Definitions

  • the invention relates to a protective helmet more particularly intended for the practice of sporting activities such as climbing, biking, mountain biking, skiing, etc., and in general, to the practice of activities whose desired level of protection is equivalent to what is required in fields as varied as sport, leisure, transport (motorcycle, bicycle, .%) and industry.
  • One of the contingencies almost imposed by the user of these helmets is mainly the possibility of combining a certain mechanical strength with a footprint and especially a reduced weight.
  • protective helmets comprising a rigid or semi-rigid outer shell, associated with a compression-deformable element attached to the inside of the shell, and intended to cushion the shocks born from the falls. possible.
  • a damping element is also called calotin.
  • the helmet - object of this document consists of a plurality of rigid outer scales, interconnected by means of flexible material connecting elements, ensuring the join between the scales, and defining a posterior occipital scale, and a a plurality of lateral transverse scales, all of these scales thus defining the shell receiving the damping internal cap.
  • the helmet thus described gives satisfaction in terms of the primary objectives sought, namely protection and flexibility, on the other hand, it has the disadvantage of being relatively bulky, because of the volume it defines.
  • the shell consists of individual segments articulated together at their front and rear end, allowing leisure to deploy or otherwise to fold said shell according to the use of the helmet.
  • this protective helmet does not implement an internal bonnet but an inflatable structure, which can not effectively fulfill the function of damping, so that the protection effectively conferred by such a helmet is reduced, and in any case unsatisfactory for users.
  • the present invention therefore aims at a protective helmet of the type in question, which at the same time, provides an effective protective function by the implementation of a rigid or semi-rigid shell and an internal cap damping and allowing however the folding or reducing the size of the helmet, notwithstanding the presence of said damping element.
  • a protective helmet comprising a rigid or semi-rigid outer shell consisting of a plurality of rigid or semi-rigid scales interconnected, and an inner cap acting as a damper, itself consisting of several elements associated with said scales, including at least one central element and one or more peripheral elements.
  • the rigid or semi-rigid external shell comprises an upper shell defining a crest, two lateral flakes, hereinafter referred to as “elytra ", hinged to the crest, advantageously in the anterior zone, or even in posterior area.
  • the damping element associated with the crest defines with the latter a free space in which are likely to slide the elytra by rotation at the point or points of articulation that binds (s) the crest.
  • the damper element associated with the crest defines at its lateral extensions a plurality of notches oriented substantially parallel to each other, at which are slidable or interlocking shaped projections substantially complementary, constituting in part the damping element associated with each elytra.
  • the damping element associated with the crest defines at its lateral extensions a thinned zone, at which the damper element associated with each of the elytrons, having a continuous profile, can be interlocked with. .
  • the damping elements associated with the elytra are no longer integrally integral.
  • they are articulated on the damping element associated with the crest, and corollary are reversibly attached to said elytra in the deployed position, for example by means of a system loops / hooks type self gripping band.
  • the corresponding damping elements are thus separated from the elytra, which can then slide in the space defined between the crest and the damping element associated with it, and consequently, one folds the damping elements associated with said elytra inside the helmet, by simple rotation about the hinge axis on the damper element of the crest.
  • the damping element associated with each elytra is permanently connected thereto only by means of a flexible hinge at the respective base of said elytron and the corresponding element.
  • said element is reversibly fixed on the elytron in the deployed position by means of a loop / hook system.
  • the protective helmet according to the invention also comprises at its outer shell a posterior or occipital scale.
  • This posterior scale can be articulated on the crest and foldable inside of it by a simple rotational movement.
  • This occipital element advantageously comprises a deformable element, capable at the same time of playing a role of comfort and damping.
  • This posterior scale is also capable of sliding within the space defined between the crest and the damper element associated with it, like the elytra.
  • the helmet according to the invention further advantageously comprises a size adjustment system conventionally called “fit system ".
  • the helmet consists of an outer shell, consisting in this case of four elements or flakes, made of a rigid material, typically polycarbonate, polyamide, ABS (acrylonitrile butadiene styrene), or even composite material.
  • a rigid material typically polycarbonate, polyamide, ABS (acrylonitrile butadiene styrene), or even composite material.
  • These four elements consist respectively of an upper element (2), called a crest, two lateral or elytral scales (3, 4), extending substantially over the entire length of the helmet, and a rear element (5). acting as an occipital protective element.
  • the two elytra (3) and (4) are articulated at the anterior end of the crest (2) at points of articulation (6), as can be seen on the figure 2 and on Figures 6 and 7 .
  • these points of rotation (6) allow the elytra (3) and (4) to slide inside the crest (2), as moreover it can be observed more particularly at the level of the figure 7 . More precisely, the articulation points are oriented in such a way that the elytra move substantially parallel to the bottom of the crest (2).
  • the occipital scale (5) is articulated on the crest (2). In this configuration, several cases are possible.
  • the occipital scale (5) is articulated on the crest by means of a hinge pin (12) formed at the level of the bottom of the crest (see figure 2 ), an articulation arm (7) extending therefrom, and being secured within said occipital tortoiseshell.
  • the occipital scale (5) is likely to fall back towards the interior of the hull and in particular the crest.
  • the occipital scale (5) is articulated laterally on the crest (2), either directly ( figure 9a ) by means of hinge pins (19), or by means of two intermediate arms (20).
  • the occipital scale (5) is slidable between the crest and the damping element which it is provided, and, like the elytra (3, 4): see figure 11 .
  • the occipital scale is devoid of damper element, or the one with which it is equipped is likely to retract in the same way for example as those described in relation to elytra (3, 4) in connection with the Figures 8b and 8c .
  • the base of the occipital scale (5) is provided with two male clips, each intended to cooperate with an orifice provided for this purpose in the vicinity of the posterior base of each of the elytra (3, 4 ).
  • the size of the helmet is advantageously adjusted by means of an organ well known to those skilled in the art and traditionally referred to as "fit system ".
  • Such a system is either internal or external, and in the particular application of the invention, is positioned on the occipital scale (5). In this configuration, it acts on the flexibility of the scales constituting the shell, and on the possibility conferred on the occipital scale (5) to pivot against the occiput of the user to allow to adjust the size.
  • the end of the lateral lugs (21) emanating from said fit-system symbolized by the wheel (22) are each provided with either a protruding lug (23), directed towards the inside of the helmet, and adapted to cooperate with a light (24) provided for this purpose at the posterior base of the elytron considered ( figure 13b ), or a clip (25), intended to cooperate with a complementary element (26), also positioned at the rear base of said elytrium ( figure 13c ).
  • the fit-system (22) is provided with a cable (27), each end of which defines a loop (28) intended to surround a button (29) provided for this purpose at the rear base of the elyter considered.
  • the traction on the cable (27) via the wheel (22) of the fit-system induces besides the tightening of the base of the helmet, in order to allow the adjustment of the size of the latter, also the maintenance in the deployed position of said elytra.
  • each of the elytrons (3, 4) is guided during the sliding step inside the crest (2) by means of a rail (30) formed within the inner wall of the occipital tortoiseshell (5). ).
  • the rail (30) is slit (31) in the lower zone, to allow the passage, through the slot (31) thus formed, the rear end (32) of the elytron.
  • This end (32) is received on an abutment (33), oriented substantially perpendicular to the rail (30), and on which it is capable of moving in addition to being guided by the slot (32), in order to cooperate with means for adjusting the size of the helmet, and such as for example constituted by a rack (34) or lugs (35) cooperating with corresponding slots (36), these means being derived from molding.
  • the elytron is provided on its outer face, slightly above its lower edge, a rack (50), in particular after molding.
  • This rack (50) when the groove (47) is snapped into the abutment (49), is found plumb with a tooth (51) of corresponding shape and orientation, integrated into a pushbutton type organ ( 52), operable from the outer face of the occipital element (5), and exerting natural pressure towards the inside of the helmet.
  • the release of the elytron out of the occipital element is effected by simply pressing the pushbutton (52), to disengage the tooth (51) of the rack (50), and the tooth (49 ' ) of the stop (49) to disengage it from the groove (47).
  • the push-button (52) provided with the tooth (51) is snapped into a housing provided for this purpose within the outer surface of the occipital element (5), and fixed at this level by simple cooperation of a pin (53) with a hole (54) provided for this purpose.
  • each of the constituent scales of this shell receives one or more damping elements acting as inner caps.
  • These elements of the inner cap are made of one or more semi-rigid cellular materials, chosen according to their compressive shock absorption capacity, the standards in force in the activity in question, and their flexibility, allowing them to adapt as best as possible to the shape of the user's skull.
  • this material is generally made of a polymer foam, such as expanded polypropylenes, polystyrenes, or polyurethane.
  • These elements have a typical thickness of between 10 and 35 mm, for a density of between 60 g / l and 100 g / l.
  • the damping properties of the polypropylene foam are coupled with a memory effect, allowing said elements to return to their original shape after deformation resulting from a shock of low energy level. This thus provides improved durability and durability characteristics of the helmet.
  • the crest (2) receives a damping element (8) produced by means of one of the abovementioned materials.
  • This element (8) is secured by bonding bottom of the internal face of the crest (2) limitatively at its central zone.

  • indentations are not traversing, as can be seen on the figures 3 and 6 .
  • the recess defining said indentations indeed extends from a thinned area (14), intended to come into contact with the skull of the user, towards the outside.
  • the internal damping element (8) is secured to the crest only at the anterior and posterior ends, so as to define with the crest a free space adapted to receive, as described below, the two elytra (3) and (4).
  • the deformable inner element respectively (9) and (10), associated with each of the elytrons (3) and (4), is composed, in this configuration, first of a substantially linear portion, secured to the base internal of the elytron considered, which extend in the direction of the top this time, a plurality of projections (16), in number and shape complementary to the indentations (13) formed within the damping internal element (8). associated with the crest (2).
  • the elytron (3) or (4) pivots relative to the point of rotation (6), or when said elytron is simply translated (then in the absence of a rotation point), the elytron itself is capable of being able to penetrate into the space defined between the damping element (8) associated with the crest (2) and the latter, this relative displacement being not prevented by the presence of the respective damping elements (9, 10) of the elytra ( 3, 4), insofar as the projections (16) thereof slide in the notches (13).
  • the damping element (8) associated with the crest (2) no longer has indentations (13), but releases a substantially uniform and continuous free space between the base (14) and the crest (2), within which is slidable the damping element (9, 10) elytra (3, 4), which are also continuous (thus free of projections).
  • the profile of said elements (9, 10) is substantially complementary to said free volume.
  • the damping elements (9, 10) associated with the elytra (3, 4) are different.
  • they are not attached to the elytra in question, in any case irreversibly.

  • the damping elements (9, 10) are disconnected from the corresponding elytrons (3, 4), firstly allowing the elytra to slide in the space defined between the crest. (2) and the damper element (8) associated therewith. Simultaneously, due to the presence of the flexible hinge (41), this sliding induces the displacement of the damping elements (9, 10) which are associated respectively substantially parallel to the damper element (8) of the crest (2).
  • the occipital flake (5) may also be provided with an internal damping element (11). It performs as much a comfort function as a damping function.
