Definitions

  • the invention relates to a protective helmet, in particular for motorcyclists, according to the preamble of claim 1.
  • Conventional motorcycle helmets have a substantially closed helmet shell on the front side of a visor opening is formed for receiving a hinged main visor.
  • the helmet calotte contains on its inside a head cushion, which covers almost the entire inside of the helmet shell by a several centimeters thick cushion layer.
  • a main visor in addition to provide a sun visor, which can be operated independently of the main visor, wherein it covers a portion of the helmet section in the use position, and in out-use position in a gap can be inserted, extending between the inside of the helmet shell and the headrest is located.
  • the pivot point of the sun visor may coincide with or be spaced apart from the pivot point of the main visor.
  • the actuation is usually via a handle arranged conveniently slide element on the outside of the helmet shell.
  • the slider acts via a lever linkage on the inside of the helmet cap on the sun visor and can therefore pivot the sun visor between two positions.
  • An appropriate training such a sun visor is from the EP 1 393 642 B1 known.
  • an actuating element which acts on the inside of the helmet shell on an adjusting mechanism that allows movement of the sun visor.
  • Sun visor and main visor are mounted at spaced hinge points.
  • a helmet known which also contains a main visor and a sun visor.
  • a fog visor which runs parallel to the sun visor.
  • Main visor, sun visor and fog visor are pivotable about the same joint. This leads to considerable space in the lateral area of the helmet, so that there either the helmet must be equipped very wide or the cushion thickness is significantly reduced in the joint area.
  • a helmet for professional use in which a sun visor is provided in addition to a main visor, which is pivotable about a pivot point which is parallel to the pivot point of the main visor.
  • the pivoting of the sun visor is effected by means of a central slider on a top-side opaque part of the main visor.
  • the DE 10 2004 048 842 B3 shows an integral helmet with a helmet cap, which includes a sliding sun visor, which can partially cover the visor opening.
  • the sun visor is guided according to this document by two lateral guides in the form of a curved portion, wherein the movement of the side wings is controlled in the guides by an actuating element which is fixed in the form of a slider on the outside of the helmet shell.
  • the motion transmission between slide and sun visor is carried out by means of a Bowden cable.
  • the effort to form the sun visor actuation is significant. Furthermore, it is necessary that the operation of the two ends of the sun visor is strictly parallel, otherwise it may lead to tilting of the ends of the sun visor in the guides.
  • the invention has for its object to provide a protective helmet, especially for motorcyclists, in addition to a Main visor uses a sliding sun visor, which is easy to operate, is safe to handle and requires only a small design effort.
  • the invention is based on a protective helmet, in particular for motorcyclists, which has a shock-resistant helmet cap and an inner head pad, wherein the helmet cap includes a cutout for a main sighting with a laterally rotatably mounted main visor to cover the main sighting, with the top of the visor opening a gap for insertion a sun visor is formed, and wherein the sun visor is displaceable in the gap between a rest position leaving the visor opening and a use position partially covering the visor opening.
  • the sun visor is displaceable in its central region by means of a control knob guided over a guide gap of the helmet cap.
  • the side wings of the sun visor are stabilized against movement in the normal direction of the sun visor by means of two side guides guided in the helmet cap.
  • actuating slide Due to the central arrangement of the actuating slide this can act directly on the central region of the sun visor, so that no further force transmission means, such as levers, Bowden cables or the like, are required to operate the sun visor.
  • the actuating slide or the actuating knob engages through a gap in the helmet shell and is simultaneously guided through the gap.
  • the invention provides to stabilize the side wings of the sun visor, by means of Side guides are secured against movement.
  • the actuating slide is designed as an elongated slide, which is displaceable in the guide gap of the helmet shell in the longitudinal direction.
  • the actuating slide can also have guide projections with at least two guide elements running at a distance in the guide gap.
  • the guide gap can be formed from U-shaped rails, in which slides the trained as a flat rod actuating slide.
  • the actuating slide is preferably connected to the outside of the helmet shell with an actuating button, which is connected to the actuating slide z. B. is attached via pin-shaped guide elements.
  • the actuating slide can be fixed in one or more detent positions with respect to the helmet shell.
  • the position of the sun visor can be set in several positions.
  • the side wings of the sun visor are preferably stabilized by means of flat side guides, which are guided in a solid with respect to the Helmkalotte guide bar during pivoting of the sun visor. Since the side guides are not loaded in the longitudinal direction, their only purpose is to stabilize the sun visor in the transverse direction. Accordingly, the guide structure of the side guides can be kept very simple.
  • the side guides are arranged in the middle or end region between the actuating slide and the respective wing end of the sun visor. This results in the best possible security against movement and flutter of the sun visor.
  • Both the actuating slide and, alternatively, the side guides can be guided directly in the inner pad instead of a guide on the inside of the helmet shell.
  • the strips for receiving the elongated guides are formed as sleeves which are anchored in the pad.
  • the gap direction for inserting the sun visor can also be better varied, and must not necessarily follow the course of the helmet shell in this case.
  • the invention results in a protective helmet, especially for motorcyclists, which contains a simple operable sun visor, which is structurally simple, easy to use and thus can be produced inexpensively.
  • Fig. 1 a protective helmet viewed from above with the sun visor lowered
  • Fig. 2 a protective helmet viewed from above with the sun visor retracted
  • Fig. 3 a section through the operating knob and actuation slide
  • Fig. 4 an interior view of the essential design elements of the sun visor with its management and actuation elements.
  • helmet cap 10 includes a sun visor 4, which is displaceable by means of an actuating slide 3 via the actuating knob 2.
  • the sun visor has a reinforcement 5 at its upper edge. In the central region of the sun visor is located at the reinforcement 5 of the connector 7, to which the confirmation slide 3 is articulated via a guide joint 9.
  • the actuating slide 3 leaves according to Fig. 3 in a guide slot 8 on the operating knob 2 move.
  • the actuating slide is designed as a flat rod, which in the guide gap z. B. is guided over a lateral dovetail guide or U-shaped rails.
  • the button 2 may be formed as a pure slider button, but it may also be designed as a detent button, which can for example only be operated when it is pressed a piece, or it may also be designed as a double button, which is only operable when both parts of the button. The two parts are pressed apart in the rest position by a spring.
  • the side guides may also be in dovetail relationship with the guide rails.
  • Fig. 2 shows the sun visor in retracted view. It can be seen that the side guides 6 is pushed in the guide rail 1 upwards. Instead of a rigid block-shaped design of the side guides 6 can also be provided that the sun visor contains back elongated rods which are guided in tabs on the inside of the helmet shell. The rods can also be guided directly in the inner pad of the helmet. Since the rods are not under force, their function is limited to prevent lateral movement of the side wings of the sun visor.
  • Fig. 4 shows the inside view of a protective helmet with a trained sun visor. It can be clearly seen the block-shaped side guides 6, which are mounted and guided in the guide rails 1.
  • the side guides 6 need a distance from the guide rails to allow a displacement of the sun visor, if the Side guides 6 are fixed on the inside of the sun visor to the reinforcing edge 5.
  • the actual leadership of the side guides in the guide rails is therefore not shown sliding elements, which are like the sun visor itself attached to the side guide pins 12 and 13.
  • the gap can be used in addition to provide a controllable ventilation of the helmet to perform the holding buttons 11 and 12 for connecting the actuating knob with the actuating slide.
  • the operating knob can be attached at the very end of the actuating slide, so that when folded down sun visor, the rear portion of the guide gap is open, so that outside air can penetrate into the helmet.
  • a further slide is formed on the rear side of the actuating knob, which closes the rear gap when the actuating knob is pushed up and opens the gap when the actuating knob is removed. This makes it possible to easily form in addition a vent slide on top of the helmet.
