Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a sports helmet for motorcyclists and other sports, including a wireless communication device, particularly for a use in a Bluetooth technology or the like, and adapted to be applied in a housing seat formed in the helmet.
  • Bluetooth technology is encountering a continuously increasing diffusion in wireless communication devices, such as cellular phones, personal computer and other apparatus such as sound diffusion systems, and this owing to the use of a suitably designed short range communication protocol.
  • the aim of the present invention is to provide such a motorcyclist sports helmet including a communication device which can be used in driving the motorcycle or in any other situations in which the driver would desire to have his/her hands free.
  • a main object of the invention is to provide such a sports helmet including a communication device operating based on the Bluetooth technology or the like.
  • Another object of the invention is to provide such a communication device which can be easily applied to motorcyclist helmets and which has a very small weight and size.
  • Another object of the present invention is to provide such a communication device which, owing to its specifically designed constructional features, is very reliable and safe in operation.
  • Yet another object of the present invention is to provide such a motorcycle helmet including the above communication device, which can be easily made and which, moreover, is very competitive from a mere economic standpoint.
  • a sports helmet including a wireless communication device, particularly for a use in the Bluetooth technology or the like, characterized in that said helmet comprises an elongated body containing the Bluetooth device or the like, a sound diffuser and a microphone.
  • Said elongated body has a base or bottom portion thereof which can be removably snap engaged in a seat or recess of a helmet, said seat or recess being arranged at an ear portion of the helmet.
  • the helmet according to the invention comprises a wireless communication device, generally indicated by the reference number 1, which comprises an elongated body including a base or bottom portion 2 coupled to an end portion 3 arranged at a given angle with respect to said base portion 2.
  • a sound diffuser including a loudspeaker, thereat are formed a plurality of slots or openings 4 to allow sound generated by the diffuser to be diffused.
  • control pushbuttons 6 for controlling the communication device are provided.
  • the communication device 1 is used by engaging it into a seat or recess formed in the earphone support 7 of the helmet, arranged near a user ear.
  • Said earphone support 7 comprises a seat or recess 8 therein is snap engaged, at least partially, the base or bottom portion 2 of the communication device, said bottom portion being so arranged and sized as to allow the diffuser slots 4 to be arranged near the ear pavilion of the user.
  • Figure 5 shows an exemplary embodiment of the earphone support 7 comprising, in particular, a box-like body 9, made of a thermoplastic rubber material, thereto is pivoted a swinging element 10 including the snap engagement recess 8 for the communication device 1.
  • the box-like body 9 is closed by a bottom or base 11 and comprises, on an opposite side thereof, a cushion element 12 for easily abutting the user ear pavilion thereagainst.
  • the swinging element 10 is adapted to turn or swing with respect to said box-like body 9 thereby allowing to adjust the inclination of the communication device during the use thereof.
  • the earphone support 7 can be associated with, or constitute an integrating part of different elements, such as a safety helmet 13 or any other head covering device.
  • Figure 6 shows an exemplary application of the earphone support to a small ring or loop element, like that of the conventional sound earphone.
  • Figure 6 shows an exemplary use of the communication device 1 according to the present invention in association with a home or office computer, both for telephonic conversations and for listening or recording music and so on.
  • Figures 1 and 2 show a further exemplary use of the device according to the present invention in association with a safety helmet, which application is particularly useful for talking or listening music during a use of a motorcycle or other vehicles.
  • the device can also be used in practicing sports, and is not limited to a use with a helmet, since the earphone support can be associated, as stated, with any desired head covering device or can also be applied to a user head by a conventional resilient loop or the like.
  • the inventive helmet is characterized in that the Bluetooth device comprises a magnetic detecting element, designed for switching on the device as the latter is engaged in its housing recess formed in the helmet.
  • Said helmet is furthermore provided with a Bluetooth device including an electronic coupling circuit for identifying, by radiofrequency waves, a correspondence between the Bluetooth device and related helmet, so that the communication device can not be used in different helmets of third parties.
  • a Bluetooth device including an electronic coupling circuit for identifying, by radiofrequency waves, a correspondence between the Bluetooth device and related helmet, so that the communication device can not be used in different helmets of third parties.
  • the invention provides a Bluetooth technology communication device which can be snap removably engaged in a housing recess formed in a helmet and which has moreover high functional and aesthetic characteristics, allowing to use a cellular phone in a full safe manner, while allowing a user to either talk or listen music, even if the user has his/her hands engaged in performing other activities.
  • a simple earphone support including a snap engagement recess, allows the same communication device to be used in different operation modes and situations.
  • the used materials, as well as the contingent size and shapes can be any, depending on requirements.
