Description
Die Erfindung betrifft eine Anordnung zur lösbaren Verbindung einer Atemschutzmaske mit einem Schutzhelm mittels einer beidseitig angebrachten lösbaren und längenveränderlichen Halterung.The invention relates to an arrangement for detachable connection of a respirator with a protective helmet by means of a both sides mounted detachable and variable-length bracket.
Aus
Bei einer anderen bekannten Kombination aus Atemschutzmaske und Schutzhelm ist an den gegenüberliegenden Seitenwänden jeweils ein gelenkig befestigtes, längenveränderliches Halteelement mit an dessen freiem Ende unter der Wirkung einer Zugfeder teleskopisch gelagertem Befestigungsteil vorgesehen, während an den seitlich gegenüberliegenden Außenflächen des Schutzhelms jeweils eine Hakenaufnahmetasche zum Einhängen des Befestigungsteils entgegen der Federwirkung ausgebildet ist, so dass die Schutzmaske unter Vorspannung am Gesicht des Benutzers gehalten ist. Der Kopplungspunkt des Halteelements am Schutzhelm liegt etwa im Drehpunkt des Schutzhelms, um den sich dieser am Kopf des Benutzers bewegen kann. Bei dieser Art der Befestigung an zwei gegenüberliegenden Punkten an der rechten und linken Kopfseite kann die Atemschutzmaske aufgrund der unterschiedlichen Spannwirkung im Stirn- und im Kinnbereich in Abhängigkeit von der Kopfgröße und -form aber sowohl seitlich als auch von oben nach unten und vom Kinn weg mehr oder weniger leicht verrutschen, so dass der Tragekomfort leidet. Insbesondere beim Tragen der Atemschutzmaske unter Schutzbekleidung können auch Dichtheitsprobleme auftreten. Aus

Erfindungsgemäß wird die Aufgabe mit einer Anordnung zur lösbaren Verbindung einer Atemschutzmaske mit einem Schutzhelm gemäß den Merkmalen des Patentanspruchs 1 gelöst. Weitere Merkmale und zweckmäßige Ausgestaltungen der erfindungsgemäßen Anordnung ergeben sich aus den Unteransprüchen. Kern der Erfindung ist die Ausbildung der lösbaren Halterung zwischen Atemschutzmaske und Schutzhelm als beidseitige, an den Anbindungsstellen der Halteelemente drehbewegliche Vier-Punkt-Aufhängung. Die drehbewegliche Kopplung der Halteelemente an Helm und Maske wird entweder durch Drehgelenke oder durch eine biegeschlaffe Ausbildung der Halteelemente oder eines am Kopplungspunkt liegenden Endabschnitts der Halteelemente realisiert. An der Atemschutzmaske sind dicht nebeneinander jeweils zwei separate, in der Länge einstellbare Halteelemente, das heißt ein schräg nach oben gerichtetes oberes und ein im Wesentlichen waagerechtes oder leicht nach oben gerichtetes unteres Halteelement in der oben genannten Art drehbeweglich angebracht, deren gegenüberliegende Enden nahe oberhalb bzw. unterhalb des Drehpunktes des Schutzhelms ebenfalls drehbeweglich befestigt sind. Die Lage der drehbeweglichen Kopplungspunkte nahe am Drehpunkt des Schutzhelms auf dem Kopf wird durch das nahe Beieinanderliegen der an der Atemschutzmaske jeweils auf der rechten und linken Seite vorgesehenen drehbeweglichen Kopplungspunkte erreicht. Das heißt, aufgrund der V-förmigen Anordnung der Halteelemente liegen deren Kopplungspunkte am Schutzhelm nahe am Drehpunkt des Schutzhelms um den Kopf des Benutzers. Um den Maskensitz trotz der Drehbewegung des Schutzhelms am Kopf noch weiter zu verbessern, können die drehbeweglichen Kopplungspunkte der Halteelemente am Schutzhelm noch zueinander versetzt angeordnet sein, und zwar derart, dass das der obere drehbewegliche Kopplungspunkt einen geringeren Abstand zur Atemschutzmaske hat als der untere drehbewegliche Kopplungspunkt.According to the invention the object is achieved with an arrangement for the detachable connection of a respirator with a protective helmet according to the features of
Mit einer derart ausgebildeten und angeordneten lösbaren Verbindung zwischen Schutzhelm und Atemschutzmaske wird die Atemschutzmaske unabhängig von der jeweiligen Kopfform und - größe und auch unter extremen Einsatzbedingungen und der dabei auftretenden Relativbewegung zwischen Schutzhelm und Kopf des Benutzers gleichmäßig und sicher abdichtend sowohl im Stirnbereich als auch im Kinnbereich am Gesicht des Benutzers gehalten.With such a trained and arranged detachable connection between the helmet and respirator, the respirator is independent of the respective head shape and - size and under extreme conditions and the relative movement between helmet and head of the user uniformly and safely sealing both in the forehead and in the chin area held on the user's face.
Die Drehbeweglichkeit am Kopplungspunkt wird durch ein in Drehgelenken befestigtes, im Wesentlichen steifes Halteelement oder durch ein an den Enden befestigtes, aber als Ganzes oder zumindest an den Endabschnitten biegeschlaffes Halteelement erreicht. Auch eine Kombination aus drehgelenkiger und biegeschlaffdrehbeweglicher Kopplung an der einen und der anderen Seite des betreffenden Halteelements bzw. des oberen oder des unteren Haltelements ist denkbar.The rotational mobility at the coupling point is determined by a substantially rigid retaining element fixed in pivots or by a end attached but as a whole or at least reaches the slippery holding element at the end sections. A combination of pivotable and slidably rotatable coupling on one side and the other side of the relevant holding element or of the upper or the lower holding element is also conceivable.
Die Halteelemente können zudem innerhalb oder außerhalb der Helmschale in der oben beschriebenen Art drehbeweglich angebracht sein.The holding elements can also be rotatably mounted inside or outside of the helmet shell in the manner described above.
Mit Hilfe eines am Schutzhelm vorgesehenen Befestigungselements zum Einhängen der Halteelemente kann die Atemschutzmaske einfach und schnell angelegt bzw. abgenommen werden. Es ist aber auch denkbar, die Verbindung zwischen der Maske und dem Helm durch Einhängen der am Helm befestigten Halteelemente an einem an der Atemschutzmaske ausgebildeten Befestigungselement herzustellen.With the help of a provided on the protective helmet fastener for hanging the retaining elements, the respirator can be easily and quickly applied or removed. However, it is also conceivable to make the connection between the mask and the helmet by attaching the retaining elements attached to the helmet to a fastening element formed on the respiratory mask.
Gemäß einem weiteren Merkmal der Erfindung ist der helmseitige obere drehbewegliche Kopplungspunkt näher am Drehpunkt des Schutzhelms angeordnet als der helmseitige untere drehbewegliche Kopplungspunkt.According to a further feature of the invention, the helmet-side upper rotatable coupling point is arranged closer to the pivot point of the protective helmet than the helmet-side lower rotatable coupling point.
Gemäß einer bevorzugten Ausführungsform sind die helmseitigen Enden der Halteelemente über die drehbeweglichen Kopplungspunkte jeweils an einem gemeinsamen Verbindungsjoch befestigt, das, um die vorgegebenen Kopplungspunkte der Halteelemente am Schutzhelm auch bei unterschiedlicher Belastung der Halteelemente beizubehalten, verdrehsicher, aber lösbar, jeweils in ein am Schutzhelm ausgebildetes, mit Ausnehmungen versehenes Befestigungselement einhängbar ist. Ein vom Verbindungsjoch abstrebendes Befestigungsteil kann auch am Schutzhelm verdrehsicher - geführt - einhängbar sein.According to a preferred embodiment, the helm-side ends of the holding elements are each attached via the rotatable coupling points to a common connection yoke which, in order to maintain the predetermined coupling points of the holding elements on the protective helmet even with different loading of the holding elements, twisting, but releasable, each trained in a protective helmet , Fastener provided with recesses can be suspended. An abstrebendes from the connecting yoke fastening part can also be against rotation on the helmet - guided - be suspended.
In weiterer Ausbildung der Erfindung sind die biegeschlaffen oder im Wesentlichen biegesteifen Halteelemente am Sichtscheibenrahmen der Atemschutzmaske an einem gemeinsamen Maskenanbindungsteil drehbeweglich gehalten.In a further embodiment of the invention, the sluggish or substantially rigid retaining elements on the lens frame of the respirator are rotatably held on a common mask connection part.
In Ausgestaltung der Erfindung kann auch das Maskenanbindungsteil selbst drehbar, und gegebenenfalls auch lösbar, an der Maske bzw. am Sichtscheibenrahmen befestigt sein, um durch die Drehbeweglichkeit einerseits bei Helmbewegungen den sicheren Sitz der Maske zu gewährleisten und gegebenenfalls die Halterung zum Anlegen oder Abnehmen der Atemschutzmaske in diesem Bereich befestigen bzw. lösen zu können.In an embodiment of the invention, the mask connection part itself rotatable, and possibly also releasably secured to the mask or the lens frame to ensure the rotational fit on the one hand helmet movements the secure fit of the mask and optionally the holder for applying or removing the respirator be able to attach or detach in this area.
In Ausgestaltung der Erfindung können die Halteelemente oder auch das Maskenanbindungsteil längenverstellbar sein, um die Maske zum Gesicht des Benutzers hin zu justieren.In an embodiment of the invention, the holding elements or the mask connecting part may be adjustable in length in order to adjust the mask towards the user's face.

- Fig. 2
- a side view of the respirator after
Fig. 1 ; and - Fig. 3
- a side view according to
Fig. 1 , but with another attachment of the respirator to the helmet.
Die Haltevorrichtung umfasst jeweils ein für beide Seiten des Schutzhelms 1 vorgesehenes, mit Befestigungshaken 2a, 2b versehenes Verbindungsjoch 3, das in Ausnehmungen 4a, 4b eines an der Seitenwand des Schutzhelms 1 ausgebildeten Befestigungselements 4 eingehängt werden kann und in diesem durch ein Rastelement 5 arretierbar ist. Das Verbindungsjoch 3 kann somit beim Anlegen der Atemschutzmaske 6 auf einfache Weise am Schutzhelm 1 eingehängt und zum Abnehmen der Atemschutzmaske 6 wieder ausgehängt werden. An den beiden Enden des Verbindungsjochs 3 sind über ein helmseitiges oberes Drehgelenk ein oberes Halteelement 8 und über ein unteres helmseitiges Drehgelenk 9 ein unteres Halteelement 10 gelenkig befestigt. Die beiden längenverstellbar ausgeführten Halteelemente 8 und 10 sind V-förmig zu einem gemeinsamen, am Sichtscheibenrahmen 11 der Atemschutzmaske 6 angebrachten Maskenanbindungsteil 12 geführt und jeweils über ein maskenseitiges oberes und unteres Drehgelenk 13, 15 gelenkig mit diesem verbunden. Der Schutzhelm 1 hat am Kopf des Benutzers einen in einer gedachten waagerechten Drehachse des Kopfes des Benutzers liegenden Drehpunkt 14, der zwischen dem oberen und dem unteren Drehgelenk 7, 9 am Verbindungsjoch 3, vorzugsweise aber näher am oberen Drehgelenk 7, liegt. Das obere helmseitige Drehgelenk 7 des oberen Halteelements 8 liegt in einem Abstand zwischen 10 und 60 mm zur Atemschutzmaske 6 hin oberhalb des Drehpunktes 14, während sich das untere helmseitige Drehgelenk 9 des unteren Halteelements 10 in einem Abstand zwischen 20 und 80 mm von der Atemschutzmaske 6 weg unterhalb des Drehpunktes 14 befindet. Die ausgehend vom Sichtscheibenrahmen 11 V-förmig aufgespreizten Halteelemente 8 und 10 liegen am Maskenanbindungsteil 12 eng nebeneinander, so dass sich auch die Drehgelenke 7 und 9 möglichst nah am Drehpunkt 14 des Schutzhelms 1 befinden. Aufgrund dieser Anordnung der Drehgelenke 7, 9 bzw. des Verbindungsjochs 3 sowie der Halteelemente 8 und 10 bleibt eine Drehbewegung des Schutzhelms 1 am Kopf des Benutzers im Wesentlichen ohne Einfluss auf den Sitz der Atemschutzmaske 6 am Gesicht des Benutzers. Auch durch die aufgrund des unterschiedlichen Abstands der oberen und unteren helmseitigen Drehgelenke 7, 9 versetzte Anordnung der Kopplungspunkte kann die Relativbewegung zwischen Schutzhelm und Atemschutzmaske minimiert werden.The holding device comprises in each case one provided for both sides of the
Über die gelenkige Halterung der Halteelemente 8, 10 in den Drehgelenken 7, 9 am Verbindungsjoch 3 und den Drehgelenken 13, 15 am Maskenanbindungsteil 12 ist die richtige Höheneinstellung der Atemschutzmaske 6 am Gesicht des Benutzers möglich, während die Längeneinstellung der Halteelemente 8, 10 ein dichtes Anliegen der Atemschutzmaske 6 am Gesicht bewirkt. Das V-förmige Aufspreizen der Halteelemente 8 und 10 mit einem im Wesentlichen waagerecht verlaufenden oder leicht schräg nach oben gerichteten unteren Halteelement 10 und einem schräg nach oben verlaufenden oberen Halteelement 8 gewährleistet ein gleichmäßiges Anliegen der Atemschutzmaske im oberen und im unteren Gesichtsbereich, indem das obere Halteelement 8 die Atemschutzmaske 6 dicht an das Gesicht bringt, und zwar mit höherer Anpresskraft an der Stirn als am Kinn, und das im Wesentlichen waagerechte untere Halteelement 10 die Atemschutzmaske 6 in Richtung des Kinns zieht, und dadurch einen an den Benutzer angepassten sicheren Sitz am Kinn gewährleistet. Wichtig ist dabei die gelenkige und nahe dem Drehpunkt 14 vorgesehene Anordnung der Drehgelenke 7, 9 der beiden Halteelemente 8 und 10 am Schutzhelm 1 sowie der Drehgelenke 13, 15 am Maskenanbindungsteil 12, um einen Einfluss von Relativbewegungen zwischen dem Schutzhelm und der Atemschutzmaske 6 auf den Dichtsitz der Maske weitgehend auszuschließen und auch während eines Einsatzes einen komfortablen und sicheren Sitz der Atemschutzmaske zu garantieren.About the articulated mounting of the
