Description

Domaine technique de l'inventionTechnical field of the invention

La présente invention concerne un dispositif de réglage pour élément portatif et, plus particulièrement, un dispositif de réglage amélioré pour élément portatif permettant un réglage simple, rapide et efficace.The present invention relates to a device for adjusting a portable element and, more particularly, to an improved adjustment device for a portable element allowing a simple, fast and efficient adjustment.

État de la techniqueState of the art

Les dispositifs de réglage pour élément portatif sont très largement utilisés notamment dans le domaine sportif. C'est le cas notamment des dispositifs assurant le bon positionnement des lampes frontales, des masques de ski ou de plongée, des lunettes de natation, etc.The adjustment devices for portable element are very widely used especially in the sports field. This is particularly the case of devices ensuring the correct positioning of headlamps, ski or diving masks, swimming goggles, etc.

Les dispositifs de rĂ©glage actuellement commercialisĂ©s, notamment ceux pour les masques de ski, se prĂ©sentent sous la forme d'une unitĂ© unique de rĂ©glage de la longueur d'une sangle faisant le tour de la tĂªte et assurant le maintien de l'Ă©lĂ©ment portatif. L'unitĂ© de rĂ©glage comporte un chemin de coulissement permettant le dĂ©tournement de la sangle et une zone de fixation de ladite sangle. AssociĂ©e Ă  l'unitĂ© de rĂ©glage, un anneau permet Ă  la sangle, passant au travers de l'anneau, de rĂ©aliser une boucle entre ledit anneau et l'unitĂ© de rĂ©glage. L'Ă©cartement entre l'anneau et l'unitĂ© de rĂ©glage permet de rĂ©gler la longueur de la sangle. Ce type de dispositif prĂ©sente l'inconvĂ©nient d'Ăªtre peu pratique lorsque l'utilisateur souhaite modifier le rĂ©glage sans Ă´ter l'Ă©lĂ©ment portatif et ceci tout en continuant son activitĂ©. En effet, pour rĂ©gler ce type de dispositif, l'utilisateur doit tenir le brin coulissant dans l'unitĂ© unique de rĂ©glage et faire coulisser sur celui-ci l'unitĂ© de rĂ©glage. L'utilisateur doit donc d'abord dĂ©terminer lequel des deux Ă©lĂ©ments prĂ©sents sur la sangle est l'unitĂ© de rĂ©glage puis lequel des brins est coulissant sur l'unitĂ© de rĂ©glage. Il doit ensuite effectuer le coulissement de l'unitĂ© de rĂ©glage le long dudit brin coulissant. Un tel rĂ©glage est donc relativement long et laborieux lorsque l'utilisateur est en activitĂ© et ceci d'autant que l'unitĂ© de rĂ©glage et l'anneau sont gĂ©nĂ©ralement positionnĂ©s Ă  l'arrière de la tĂªte.The currently marketed adjustment devices, including those for ski masks, are in the form of a single unit for adjusting the length of a strap around the head and ensuring the maintenance of the portable element. The adjustment unit comprises a sliding path for diverting the strap and a fastening zone of said strap. Associated with the adjustment unit, a ring allows the strap, passing through the ring, to make a loop between said ring and the adjustment unit. The spacing between the ring and the adjustment unit adjusts the length of the strap. This type of device has the disadvantage of being impractical when the user wants to change the setting without removing the portable element and this while continuing its activity. Indeed, to set this type of device, the user must hold the sliding strand in the single adjustment unit and slide on it the adjustment unit. The user must first determine which of the two elements present on the strap is the adjustment unit and which of the strands is sliding on the adjustment unit. He must then make the slide of the adjustment unit along said sliding strand. Such an adjustment is therefore relatively long and laborious when the user is active and this especially as the adjustment unit and the ring are generally positioned at the rear of the head.

Il existe Ă©galement, pour les Ă©lĂ©ments portatifs du type lunettes de natation ou de plongĂ©e, des dispositifs de rĂ©glage se prĂ©sentant sous la forme de deux unitĂ©s de rĂ©glage disposĂ©es spĂ©cifiquement de part et d'autre de l'Ă©lĂ©ment portatif, sur le support mĂªme dudit Ă©lĂ©ment. Ces types de dispositif sont parfois munis d'une sangle de tour de tĂªte particulière, gĂ©nĂ©ralement Ă  base de silicone, comportant un dĂ©doublement fixe au niveau de la partie occipitale de la tĂªte. Une telle sangle permet un bon maintien de l'Ă©lĂ©ment portatif mais le rĂ©glage de la longueur de sangle d'un tel dispositif reste difficile Ă  effectuer. En particulier, l'utilisateur a tendance Ă  tirer sur la sangle de rĂ©glage plus fortement d'un cĂ´tĂ© que de l'autre, ceci induisant un rĂ©glage non symĂ©trique du dĂ©doublement par rapport au plan sagittal. Le dĂ©doublement, mal positionnĂ©, perd alors son efficacitĂ© en termes de maintien de l'Ă©lĂ©ment portatif.There are also, for the portable elements of the swimming or diving goggles type, adjustment devices in the form of two adjustment units arranged specifically on either side of the portable element, on the very support of said device. element. These types of device are sometimes provided with a particular headband strap, usually based on silicone, having a fixed resolution at the occipital portion of the head. Such a strap allows a good hold of the portable element but the adjustment of the strap length of such a device remains difficult to perform. In particular, the user tends to pull the adjustment strap more strongly on one side than the other, this inducing a non-symmetrical adjustment of the split with respect to the sagittal plane. Duplication, poorly positioned, then loses its effectiveness in terms of maintaining the portable element.

Les unités de réglage du dispositif de réglage comportent chacune un chemin de coulissement de l'un des brins élémentaires décalé latéralement, selon une direction perpendiculaire à l'axe longitudinal des brins élémentaires, par rapport au système de fixation de l'autre des brins élémentaires, et un système de fixation d'un brin élémentaire sur l'unité de réglage configuré pour que le brin élémentaire soit orienté dans une direction différente de l'autre brin élémentaire dans le chemin de coulissement.The adjustment units of the adjusting device each comprise a sliding path of one of the elementary strands laterally offset, in a direction perpendicular to the longitudinal axis of the elementary strands, relative to the fastening system of the other elementary strands. and a system for attaching an elementary strand to the adjustment unit configured so that the elementary strand is oriented in a direction different from the other elementary strand in the sliding path.

Selon un mode de rĂ©alisation prĂ©fĂ©rĂ©, les deux brins Ă©lĂ©mentaires font partie d'un mĂªme brin. Dans ce mode de rĂ©alisation, l'Ă©lĂ©ment portatif peut Ă©ventuellement Ăªtre montĂ© coulissant le long du brin.According to a preferred embodiment, the two elementary strands are part of the same strand. In this embodiment, the portable element may optionally be slidably mounted along the strand.

Selon un autre mode de rĂ©alisation, le premier et le deuxième brins sont de mĂªme longueur.According to another embodiment, the first and the second strands are of the same length.

Selon un mode préféré de réalisation, le brin unique ou une zone support permet la fixation d'un élément portatif. Cet élément portatif est en particulier une lampe frontale.According to a preferred embodiment, the single strand or a support zone allows the attachment of a portable element. This portable element is in particular a headlamp.

Description de modes particuliers de réalisationDescription of particular embodiments

Le dispositif de réglage pour élément portatif comporte deux brins élémentaires 1 et deux unités de réglage 3 comportant chacune un chemin de coulissement 4 pour l'un des brins élémentaires et un système de fixation 5 pour l'une des extrémités de l'autre des brins élémentaires. Pour une unité de réglage 3 donnée, le chemin de coulissement 4 de l'un des brins élémentaires est décalé latéralement par rapport au système de fixation de l'autre des brins élémentaires.The adjustment device for portable element comprises two elementary strands 1 and two adjustment units 3 each comprising a sliding path 4 for one of the elementary strands and a fastening system 5 for one of the ends of the other of the strands. elementary. For a given adjustment unit 3, the sliding path 4 of one of the elementary strands is shifted laterally relative to the fastening system of the other elementary strands.

Selon un premier mode de rĂ©alisation de l'invention, les deux brins Ă©lĂ©mentaires 1 font partie d'un mĂªme brin. Dans un tel mode de rĂ©alisation, chaque brin Ă©lĂ©mentaire a alors une extrĂ©mitĂ© dĂ©finie par la connexion Ă  l'Ă©lĂ©ment portatif et l'autre extrĂ©mitĂ© dĂ©finie par la fixation Ă  une des unitĂ©s de rĂ©glage 3. Le brin unique a donc ses extrĂ©mitĂ©s fixĂ©es chacune Ă  une des unitĂ©s de rĂ©glage 3. L'Ă©lĂ©ment portatif est assemblĂ© au brin unique selon tout moyen bien connu de l'homme du mĂ©tier, de manière fixe ou coulissante sur ledit brin. Selon un mode avantageux, l'Ă©lĂ©ment portatif est montĂ© coulissant le long du brin.According to a first embodiment of the invention, the two elementary strands 1 are part of the same strand. In such an embodiment, each elementary strand then has an end defined by the connection to the portable element and the other end defined by the attachment to one of the adjustment units 3. The single strand therefore has its ends each fixed to one of the adjustment units 3. The portable element is assembled to the single strand by any means well known to those skilled in the art, fixedly or sliding on said strand. According to an advantageous embodiment, the portable element is slidably mounted along the strand.

La figure 1 prĂ©sente une vue schĂ©matique en perspective d'un dispositif de rĂ©glage selon un mode particulier de rĂ©alisation. Ledit dispositif comporte deux brins Ă©lĂ©mentaires 1 a et 1 b ayant une partie reliĂ©e Ă  une zone support 2 de l'Ă©lĂ©ment portatif fixĂ©e au dispositif de rĂ©glage grĂ¢ce auxdits brins Ă©lĂ©mentaires et deux unitĂ©s de rĂ©glage 3 (3a et 3b) comportant chacune un chemin de coulissement 4 pour l'un des brins Ă©lĂ©mentaires et un système de fixation 5 pour l'autre brin Ă©lĂ©mentaire. Le dispositif comprend plus particulièrement une première unitĂ© de rĂ©glage 3a comportant un chemin de coulissement 4 du deuxième brin Ă©lĂ©mentaire 1b et un système de fixation 5 du premier brin Ă©lĂ©mentaire 1a. Il comprend Ă©galement une deuxième unitĂ© de rĂ©glage 3b comportant un chemin de coulissement 4 du premier brin Ă©lĂ©mentaire 1a et un système de fixation 5 du deuxième brin Ă©lĂ©mentaire 1b. Ainsi, chaque brin Ă©lĂ©mentaire est fixĂ© d'un cĂ´tĂ© Ă  la zone support 2 et de l'autre cĂ´tĂ© Ă  son unitĂ© de rĂ©glage 3. Chaque unitĂ© de rĂ©glage 3 est traversĂ©e par l'autre brin Ă©lĂ©mentaire via le chemin de coulissement 4.The figure 1 has a schematic perspective view of a control device according to a particular embodiment. Said device comprises two elementary strands 1a and 1b having a portion connected to a support zone 2 of the portable element fixed to the adjustment device by said elementary strands and two adjustment units 3 (3a and 3b) each having a path of sliding 4 for one of the elementary strands and a fastening system 5 for the other elementary strand. The device more particularly comprises a first adjustment unit 3a comprising a sliding path 4 of the second elementary strand 1b and a fastening system 5 of the first elementary strand 1a. It also includes a second adjustment unit 3b comprising a sliding path 4 of the first elementary strand 1a and a fastening system 5 of the second elementary strand 1b. Thus, each elementary strand is fixed on one side to the support zone 2 and on the other side to its adjustment unit 3. Each adjustment unit 3 is traversed by the other elementary strand via the sliding path 4.

Un tel dispositif permet un rĂ©glage rapide, rĂ©alisable alors mĂªme que l'utilisateur est Ă©quipĂ© de l'Ă©lĂ©ment portatif et est, par exemple, en train de pratiquer une activitĂ© physique. Il suffit Ă  l'utilisateur de rapprocher entre elles les unitĂ©s de rĂ©glage ou, au contraire, de les Ă©loigner pour obtenir un rĂ©glage optimum de la longueur du dispositif.Such a device allows a quick adjustment, achievable even when the user is equipped with the portable element and is, for example, practicing physical activity. It is sufficient for the user to bring the adjustment units closer to each other or, on the contrary, to move them away in order to obtain optimum adjustment of the length of the device.

Les chemins de coulissement 4 peuvent comprendre deux trous traversants 7 permettant de faire passer un brin Ă©lĂ©mentaire d'une première face principale Ă  la face principale opposĂ©e puis de faire revenir ledit brin Ă©lĂ©mentaire du cĂ´tĂ© de la première face principale (Fig. 1-3 et 5). Les chemins de coulissement 4 permettent ainsi un dĂ©tournement des brins Ă©lĂ©mentaires, ledit dĂ©tournement Ă©tant un moyen pour empĂªcher le coulissement non contrĂ´lĂ© de l'unitĂ© de rĂ©glage 3 le long du brin dès lors que le brin est en tension de part et d'autre de l'unitĂ© de rĂ©glage 3. Ainsi lorsqu'une tension est appliquĂ©e sur le brin Ă©lĂ©mentaire uniquement d'un cĂ´tĂ© de l'unitĂ© de rĂ©glage 3, le brin coulisse dans le chemin de coulissement 4. Lorsqu'une mĂªme tension est appliquĂ©e sur le brin Ă©lĂ©mentaire de part et d'autre de l'unitĂ© de rĂ©glage 3, le brin Ă©lĂ©mentaire reste fixe et ne coulisse plus dans le chemin de coulissement 4.The sliding paths 4 may comprise two through holes 7 making it possible to pass an elementary strand from a first main face to the opposite main face and then to return said elementary strand to the side of the first main face ( Fig. 1-3 and 5 ). The sliding paths 4 thus allow a diversion of the elementary strands, said diversion being a means for preventing the uncontrolled sliding of the adjustment unit 3 along the strand when the strand is in tension on both sides of the strand. the adjustment unit 3. Thus, when a tension is applied to the elementary strand only on one side of the adjustment unit 3, the strand slides in the sliding path 4. When the same voltage is applied to the elementary strand on either side of the adjustment unit 3, the elementary strand remains fixed and no longer slides in the sliding path 4.

Selon un mode de rĂ©alisation, notamment lorsque le brin est une sangle ou un bandeau, l'une des faces principales de l'unitĂ© de rĂ©glage s'entend de la face en contact avec la tĂªte ou un casque (Fig. 1-5).According to one embodiment, particularly when the strand is a strap or a headband, one of the main faces of the adjustment unit refers to the face in contact with the head or a helmet ( Fig. 1-5 ).

Le chemin de coulissement 4 de chaque brin Ă©lĂ©mentaire est dĂ©calĂ© latĂ©ralement par rapport au système de fixation 5 de l'autre brin Ă©lĂ©mentaire. Le dĂ©calage latĂ©ral est un dĂ©calage des deux brins Ă©lĂ©mentaires 1 a et 1b selon une direction perpendiculaire Ă  l'axe longitudinal (la plus grande dimension) des brins Ă©lĂ©mentaires. Les deux brins Ă©lĂ©mentaires sont sensiblement dans le mĂªme plan, mĂªme lorsque les brins sont des sangles. Un tel dĂ©calage permet un Ă©cartement e des brins Ă©lĂ©mentaires entre les unitĂ©s de rĂ©glage 3 (Fig. 3 et 6). Un tel Ă©cartement e assure ainsi un excellent maintien de l'Ă©lĂ©ment portatif grĂ¢ce notamment Ă  un double appui du dispositif de fixation. Lorsque l'Ă©lĂ©ment portatif est positionnĂ© sur le front, ledit double appui est prĂ©fĂ©rentiellement positionnĂ© Ă  l'arrière de la tĂªte, chacun des brins se positionnant symĂ©triquement de part et d'autre du plan passant par l'Ă©lĂ©ment portatif, ledit plan Ă©tant perpendiculaire au plan sagittal.The sliding path 4 of each elementary strand is shifted laterally relative to the fastening system 5 of the other elementary strand. The lateral shift is an offset of the two elementary strands 1 a and 1b in a direction perpendicular to the longitudinal axis (the largest dimension) of the elementary strands. The two elementary strands are substantially in the same plane, even when the strands are straps. Such an offset allows spacing e of the elementary strands between the adjustment units 3 ( Fig. 3 and 6). Such spacing e thus ensures excellent retention of the portable element thanks in particular to a double support of the fixing device. When the portable element is positioned on the front, said double support is preferably positioned at the rear of the head, each of the strands being positioned symmetrically on either side of the plane passing through the portable element, said plane being perpendicular in the sagittal plane.

Le système de fixation 5 d'un brin élémentaire sur l'unité de réglage 3 est configuré pour que le brin élémentaire soit orienté dans une direction différente de l'autre brin élémentaire dans le chemin de coulissement 4 (Fig. 3 et 5). Lors de la mise sous tension des brins élémentaires, au moins deux forces (F, Fig. 5) différentes sont appliquées sur l'unité de réglage. Une première force Fa est appliquée par le premier brin 1 a et tend à orienter l'unité de réglage selon une première direction. Une seconde force Fb est appliquée par le deuxième brin 1b et tend à orienter l'unité de réglage selon une seconde direction différente de la première. En conséquence, l'unité de réglage s'oriente entre ces deux directions et crée une force de frottement qui s'oppose au déplacement du brin 1b à l'intérieur du chemin de coulissement.The fixing system 5 of an elementary strand on the adjustment unit 3 is configured so that the elementary strand is oriented in a direction different from the other elementary strand in the sliding path 4 ( Fig. 3 and 5 ). When energizing the elementary strands, at least two forces (F, Fig. 5 ) are applied to the adjustment unit. A first force Fa is applied by the first strand 1a and tends to orient the adjustment unit in a first direction. A second force Fb is applied by the second strand 1b and tends to orient the adjustment unit in a second direction different from the first. As a result, the adjustment unit is oriented between these two directions and creates a friction force which opposes the movement of the strand 1b within the sliding path.

La fixation du brin ou des brins élémentaires sur les unités de réglage 3 au niveau des systèmes de fixation 5 et, éventuellement, sur la zone support 2, peut s'effectuer par tout moyen bien connu de l'homme du métier, par exemple par des techniques de couture, de soudage ou de collage.Fixing the strand or elementary strands on the adjustment units 3 at the fastening systems 5 and, possibly, on the support zone 2, can be carried out by any means well known to those skilled in the art, for example by sewing, welding or gluing techniques.

Le brin Ă©lĂ©mentaire 1 peut Ăªtre de tout type et de toute forme appropriĂ©e. En particulier, on entend par brin tout type d'Ă©lĂ©ment souple longitudinal destinĂ© Ă  assurer la fixation, l'ajustement ou le serrage. Il peut donc s'agir par exemple d'une sangle plate de largeur quelconque ou d'un Ă©lĂ©ment de type cordon de diamètre quelconque. PrĂ©fĂ©rentiellement, les brins Ă©lĂ©mentaires sont Ă  base d'un matĂ©riau extensible. Dans tous les cas, il s'agira d'un Ă©lĂ©ment longitudinal, donc de longueur très supĂ©rieure Ă  son diamètre et/ou Ă  sa largeur.The elementary strand 1 can be of any type and of any suitable form. In particular, the term strand means any type of longitudinal flexible element for fixing, adjustment or clamping. It may therefore be for example a flat strap of any width or a type of element cord of any diameter. Preferably, the elementary strands are based on an extensible material. In all cases, it will be a longitudinal element, so much longer than its diameter and / or width.

Dans un mode de rĂ©alisation, la zone support 2 est destinĂ©e Ă  recevoir l'Ă©lĂ©ment portatif. En particulier, il peut par exemple s'agir d'une plaque rigide lorsque l'Ă©lĂ©ment portatif est une lampe frontale. Eventuellement, la face interne 6 (Fig. 1) de la zone support 2 peut Ăªtre recouverte d'un matĂ©riau Ă©lastiquement dĂ©formable pour amĂ©liorer le confort de l'utilisateur.In one embodiment, the support zone 2 is intended to receive the portable element. In particular, it may for example be a rigid plate when the portable element is a headlamp. Optionally, the inner face 6 ( Fig. 1 ) of the support zone 2 may be covered with an elastically deformable material to improve the comfort of the user.

Les unitĂ©s de rĂ©glage 3 peuvent Ăªtre de tout type et de toute forme appropriĂ©e. En particulier, elles peuvent Ăªtre en matière plastique ou en mĂ©tal.The adjustment units 3 can be of any type and any suitable form. In particular, they can be made of plastic or metal.

Par la suite, on entend par longueur de brin la longueur de brin qui sépare l'élément portatif ou la zone support 2 de l'unité de réglage 3.
Selon un mode prĂ©fĂ©rentiel de rĂ©alisation, le dispositif de rĂ©glage comprend deux brins Ă©lĂ©mentaires 1a et 1 b de mĂªme longueur. Un tel dispositif permet ainsi un rĂ©glage symĂ©trique par rapport Ă  l'Ă©lĂ©ment portatif. La tension exercĂ©e par les deux brins Ă©lĂ©mentaires de part et d'autre de la zone support 2 est alors toujours de mĂªme intensitĂ©, garantissant un confort optimum pour l'utilisateur. Un positionnement symĂ©trique des unitĂ©s de rĂ©glage par rapport Ă  l'axe h (Fig. 4), perpendiculaire Ă  la zone support 2, permet Ă©galement le maintien en place de l'Ă©lĂ©ment portatif alors mĂªme que l'utilisateur est en train de rĂ©gler la longueur du dispositif. En effet, lorsque le mouvement nĂ©cessaire au rĂ©glage est une tension sur l'une seulement des zones de fixation sur la zone support (cas des rĂ©glages non symĂ©triques), cette tension crĂ©e un risque de dĂ©collement de la zone support par rapport Ă  l'Ă©lĂ©ment sur lequel il est positionnĂ©. Dans un tel cas, la zone support qui peut Ăªtre, Ă  titre d'exemple la monture Ă©quipĂ©e d'une jupe d'Ă©tanchĂ©itĂ© d'un masque de plongĂ©e, perd alors sa fonction d'Ă©tanchĂ©itĂ©. Au contraire dans le prĂ©sent dispositif, les deux brins sont reliĂ©s aux deux unitĂ©s de rĂ©glage 3 et ainsi le dĂ©placement d'une unitĂ© de rĂ©glage sur un brin Ă©lĂ©mentaire induit le dĂ©placement de l'autre unitĂ© de rĂ©glage sur l'autre brin Ă©lĂ©mentaire. La zone support reste bien positionnĂ©e sur l'Ă©lĂ©ment sur lequel elle est placĂ©e et cela mĂªme lors du rĂ©glage de la longueur des brins Ă©lĂ©mentaires.
Il en est de mĂªme lorsque le brin est un brin unique et que l'Ă©lĂ©ment portatif est placĂ© au milieu du brin.Subsequently, the length of strand means the strand length which separates the portable element or the support zone 2 from the adjustment unit 3.
According to a preferred embodiment, the adjustment device comprises two elementary strands 1a and 1b of the same length. Such a device thus allows a symmetrical adjustment with respect to the portable element. The tension exerted by the two elementary strands on either side of the support zone 2 is then always of the same intensity, guaranteeing optimum comfort for the user. A symmetrical positioning of the adjustment units with respect to the h axis ( Fig. 4 ), perpendicular to the support zone 2, also allows the holding of the portable element while the user is adjusting the length of the device. Indeed, when the movement required for adjustment is a tension on only one of the fixing areas on the support zone (in the case of non-symmetrical adjustments), this tension creates a risk of separation of the support zone with respect to the element. on which it is positioned. In such a case, the support zone which may be, for example, the frame equipped with a sealing skirt of a diving mask, then loses its sealing function. On the contrary in the present device, the two strands are connected to the two adjustment units 3 and thus the displacement of a control unit on an elementary strand induces the moving the other adjustment unit to the other elementary strand. The support zone remains well positioned on the element on which it is placed and this even when adjusting the length of the elementary strands.
It is the same when the strand is a single strand and the portable element is placed in the middle of the strand.

Le dispositif de réglage est plus particulièrement adapté à la fixation d'une lampe frontale.The adjustment device is particularly suitable for fixing a headlamp.

De manière avantageuse, lorsque le brin est une sangle, les fentes d'entrée et de sortie du trou traversant ne sont pas parallèles afin d'augmenter les forces de frottement.Advantageously, when the strand is a strap, the entrance and exit slots of the through hole are not parallel in order to increase the frictional forces.

L'Ă©lĂ©ment portatif peut Ăªtre configurĂ© pour Ăªtre placĂ© sur la tĂªte, un casque, un bras ou un autre Ă©lĂ©ment. PrĂ©fĂ©rentiellement, le dispositif de rĂ©glage associĂ© Ă  l'Ă©lĂ©ment portatif est configurĂ© pour Ăªtre placĂ© sur la tĂªte de l'utilisateur ou sur un casque.The portable element can be configured to be placed on the head, helmet, arm or other element. Preferably, the adjustment device associated with the portable element is configured to be placed on the head of the user or on a helmet.
