Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a helmet with chin protection, which can be used in particular as a bicycle helmet in order to protect other parts of the face, in particular the chin and teeth, in addition to the top of the head of a user. A user should therefore be better protected from injuries in the event of an impact.
  • Helmets are now generally used in many sports, especially in motor sports, ice hockey, skiing and cycling. Helmets with chin and face protection have long been known to ice hockey players.
  • European patent application EP 2 191 738 A2 describes a removable chin guard for a helmet, the connection device between the helmet and chin guard being provided on the inside of the helmet.
  • the connecting devices essentially consist of hooks on the chin guard and pins on the helmet.
  • An operating device that can release the hook is provided on the inside of the helmet edge.
  • Helmets with chin protectors according to the prior art thus have disadvantages in practical use, since the assembly and removal of the chin protector are relatively complex and the helmet may even have to be removed for this purpose.
  • the present invention includes a system of a helmet and a chin guard, wherein the chin guard can be detached from the outside of the helmet - that is, the helmet does not have to be removed from the head of a user in order to attach the chin guard to it or to detach it again .
  • a button is attached to the outside of the chin guard, which can also preferably be ergonomically designed. By pressing this button, the system consisting of the helmet and chin guard can adopt the unlocked state and the chin guard can be released from the helmet.
  • the helmet On its underside, the helmet has at least one connecting section through which the chin guard can be attached to the helmet.
  • the at least one connecting section of the helmet contains at least one first recess and at least one second recess, with at least one pin being arranged on the at least second recess.
  • a perforated plate is arranged on both sides of the chin guard, which is formed integrally with the button and furthermore has at least one hole which is adapted to engage with the at least one pin of the connecting section of the helmet in the locked position.
  • chin guard On both sides of the chin guard there is also at least one projection which is adapted to engage with the at least one first recess of the connecting section of the helmet.
  • the perforated plate is preferably arranged between a side part of the chin guard and in a cover plate, the cover plate preferably being attached to the chin guard with a fastening device, more preferably a screw. Furthermore, a spring is preferably provided between the cover plate and the perforated plate, which spring presses the perforated plate with a certain pretensioning force against the side part of the chin guard.
  • Such a helmet is particularly suitable as a bicycle helmet, since it can be used for normal city trips without a chin guard, but with a chin guard for mountain bike tours.
  • the present invention has the advantage that the helmet no longer has to be removed in order to loosen the chin guard, rather the helmet and chin guard can be detached from one another in a very short time.
  • the system in which both a projection of the chin guard can be brought into engagement with a recess in the helmet and at least one hole in a perforated plate of the chin guard can firmly enclose the at least one pin, which is attached to the connecting device of a helmet, is more secure the state of the art, since there are several fastening mechanisms which increase the safety of the helmet by improving the connection between the helmet and the chin guard. In this way, the chin guard is securely connected to the helmet in both the vertical and horizontal directions without the risk of this connection coming loose in the event of a fall.
  • the system according to the invention comprising a helmet and chin guard has the advantage that most of the devices that are used to attach the chin guard to the helmet (perforated plate, projections, button) are arranged on the chin guard itself. If a user falls and the devices for attaching the chin guard to the helmet are damaged or destroyed, the user can only purchase a new chin guard as a replacement part, this chin guard being significantly more cost-effective than a helmet.
  • the provision of the mechanically sensitive devices for attaching the chin guard to the chin guard is therefore useful in terms of easy and inexpensive interchangeability. This means that it is not necessary to replace the entire helmet, but only the chin guard, which leads to an inexpensive replacement option after a possible fall.
  • Fig. 1 shows the system of helmet 1 and chin guard 2, both parts being connected to one another. It is clear here that the chin guard 2 is attached to a lower part of the helmet shell. Furthermore, a button 4 is shown, which is provided on the chin guard 2. This button 4 is located on the edge of the chin guard 2, but at the same time it is also provided in an easily accessible position so that a user can easily reach it with his hand or his fingers. The button is also large enough that it can be operated easily even when wearing gloves.
  • Fig. 2 shows a detailed view of the connection between the helmet 1 and the chin guard 2. It becomes clear here that a connection section 3 is provided on the underside of the helmet 1. In this embodiment, this contains two first depressions 3a. A middle second depression 3b is arranged between the two first depressions 3a, which has a different shape than the first depressions 3a. Furthermore, two pegs 3c are provided in this second recess 3b, which project from a side wall of the second recess 3b.
  • Fig. 3 all parts and components of the system from helmet 1 and chin guard 2 can be seen.
  • the connection section 3 on the helmet 1 is also partially shown.
  • the spring in turn is held by a cover plate 8 which is fastened to the chin guard 2 with two screws 9.
  • the perforated plate 5 is beveled at its end facing away from the chin guard 2.
  • the button 4 is arranged in a recess 10 of the chin guard 2 in the assembled state.
  • the perforated plate 5 of the chin guard 2 is in engagement with the second recess 3b of the helmet 1.
  • the two holes 5a of the perforated plate 5 enclose the two pegs 3c of the connecting section 3 of the helmet 1. This ensures that the chin guard 2 is no longer movable in any direction with respect to the helmet 1.
  • the procedure for releasing the chin guard is as follows: By pressing the button 4 from the outside, the holes 5a, the perforated plate 5, which is integrally connected to the button 4, are released from their locking position by the two pegs 3c of the helmet 1, so that the chin guard 2 can be separated from the helmet 1. Here, too, the two projections 6 of the chin guard 2 are pushed out of the respective first recesses 3 a of the connecting section 3 of the helmet 1.
  • the attachment of the chin guard 2 to the helmet 1 will now be described below:
  • the chin guard 2 is first attached to the helmet 1, so that the two projections 6 rest against the two first depressions 3a.
  • the perforated plate 5 Since the perforated plate 5 is beveled at its end facing away from the chin guard 2, When it is pushed further into the second recess 3b, it overcomes the pretensioning force of the spring 7 at the latest when it hits the two pins 3c and lifts itself up from the chin guard 2. Since the perforated plate 5 is located above the pin 3c, the chin guard 2 can then be pushed further into the connecting section 3 of the helmet, so that the two projections 6 are also brought into engagement with the two first recesses 3a.
  • the spring 7 can exert its preload force again and press the perforated plate 5 down, so that the two holes 5a of the perforated plate 5 with the two pins 3c of the connecting section 3 of the helmet 1 are engaged.
  • the present invention is not limited to the above embodiment.
  • any number of perforated plates and projections could be provided, and the connecting section 3 of the helmet would have to be adapted accordingly.
  • the disclosure of the present application is intended not only to apply to a system comprising a helmet and chin guard, but also to the helmet and chin guard alone.
  • the present invention relates to a helmet 1 with a chin guard 2, wherein the chin guard 2 is detachably attached to the helmet 1 and the chin guard 2 can be attached and / or detached from the outside of the helmet 1.
  • the connection between the helmet 1 and the removable chin guard 2 is made via a specially designed connection section 3, which has a high level of security against inadvertent detachment of the chin guard from the helmet.
