DISPOSITIF DE FIXATION D'APPAREILS D'OBSERVATION SUR
CASQUE DE COMBAT
Domaine de l'invention
Le domaine de l'invention conceme la fixation d'appareils
d'observation tels que jumelles de vision noctumes, ou d'autres
appareils de vision (caméras) sur un casque de combat tel que par
exemple le casque F2 en vigueur dans les armées françaises.DEVICE FOR FIXING OBSERVATION APPARATUSES
COMBAT HELMET
Field of the invention
The field of the invention relates to the fixing of devices
observation such as night vision binoculars, or others
vision devices (cameras) on a combat helmet such as by
example the F2 helmet in force in the French armies.
L'objectif des dispositifs de fixation d'appareils d'observation
est d'en permettre l'utilisation "mains libres".The purpose of fixtures for observation devices
is to allow the use "hands free".
Il en existent plusieurs types:
- support de tête ou masque se fixant directement sur la tête de
l'utilisateur, sous le casque. Le maintien de l'appareil d'observation
est assuré en général par le serrage de sangles, avec des appuis
sur une ou plusieurs parties du visage (pommettes de joue; front)
ou de la tête (nuque) ce qui incommode l'utilisateur.There are several types:
- head support or mask attaching directly to the head
the user, under the helmet. Maintaining the observation device
is generally ensured by tightening straps, with supports
on one or more parts of the face (cheekbones; forehead)
or the head (neck) which bothers the user.
Ces dispositifs sont souvent peu commodes à utiliser avec le port
d'un casque:
- du fait de la nécessité de reprise du réglage des sangles et du
casque pour tenir compte du volume supplémentaire occupé
par le support de tête.These devices are often inconvenient to use with the port
a helmet:
- due to the need to resume adjusting the straps and the
headset to take into account the additional volume occupied
by the head support.
- du fait de la multiplicité des sangles et des attaches (support +
casque)
- casque spécial: dans ces cas le casque a été conçu avec le
dispositif de fixation intégré. Ces dispositifs sont plus
ergonomiques mais sont spécifiques à une application donnée.- due to the multiplicity of straps and fasteners (support +
helmet)
- special helmet: in these cases the helmet has been designed with the
integrated fixing device. These devices are more
ergonomic but are specific to a given application.
- support de fixation sur casque: le support de fixation est attaché au
casque par des moyens fixes. Ces dispositifs nécessitent souvent
la modification des casques, comme le perçage de trous de
fixation.- helmet mounting bracket: the mounting bracket is attached to the
helmet by fixed means. These devices often require
modification of helmets, such as drilling
fixation.
Le dispositif décrit dans l'invention est un support de fixation
sur le casque de combat ne nécessitant ni de modifications du
casque, ni de modification des réglages propres au casque . Le
dispositif selon l'invention est maintenu sur le casque par serrage
élastique. II est facilement amovible et ne necessite aucun outil de
montage ou de démontage. II est adaptable à tous types de casques. The device described in the invention is a fixing support
on the combat helmet requiring neither modifications of the
helmet, or modification of the helmet-specific settings. The
device according to the invention is held on the helmet by tightening
elastic. It is easily removable and does not require any
assembly or disassembly. It is adaptable to all types of helmets.
Les figures 1 et 2 donnent un schéma de principe de
l'ensemble monté sur un casque , la figure 1 montrant une vue de
dessus, la figure 2 une vue de coté.Figures 1 and 2 give a block diagram of
the assembly mounted on a helmet, FIG. 1 showing a view of
above, Figure 2 a side view.
La figure 3 montre un exemple de réalisation vu en perspective1 les
figures 4 a, 4b et 5a, 5b montrent une vue détaillée de la plaque et
de la courroie utilisée dans cette exemple.Figure 3 shows an embodiment seen in perspective1
Figures 4a, 4b and 5a, 5b show a detailed view of the plate and
of the belt used in this example.
Selon la description de l'invention , le dispositif se compose: - d'une plaque avant recourbée (2) de façon à épouser au mieux la
forme avant du casque (1).According to the description of the invention, the device consists of: - a curved front plate (2) so as to best fit the
helmet front shape (1).
- d'une courroie élastique (3) raccordée à la plaque (2) par un dispositif
de raccordement (4) d'une pièce support (5) se fixant sur la plaque (2) et servant d'interface
avec l'appareil de vision (6) - dans une autre variante, le dispositif selon l'invention pourra aussi
comporter un dispositif d'ajustement de longueur (7) permettant
d'adapter la longueur de l'ensemble à la taille du casque.- an elastic belt (3) connected to the plate (2) by a device
connection (4) of a support piece (5) fixing on the plate (2) and serving as an interface
with the vision device (6) - in another variant, the device according to the invention may also
have a length adjustment device (7) allowing
adapt the length of the set to the size of the helmet.
Selon un mode de réalisation - la plaque avant recourbée (2) et la pièce support (5) pourront être en
métal ou en une matière synthétique (plastique) - la courroie (3) pourra être en caoutchouc ou en matière synthétique - la plaque avant recourbée (2) ainsi que la courroie (3) pourront
comporter sur la surface de contact avec le casque un revêtement
antidérapant (8) ( revêtement en caoutchouc par exemple) les pièces métalliques sont traitées contre la corrosion et les
agressions chimiques extérieures.Selon le type d'usage, elles seront
traitées antireflet et colorées ( de couleur noire mate pour la vision
nocturne par exemple )
A titre d'exemple, selon les figures 3, 4 et 5, le dispositif de
raccordement pourra être constitué de deux encoches (9) dans les
extrémités recourbées de la plaque, dans lesquelles viennent s'enfiler
en force les extrémités de la courroie. La figure 5 donne un exemple
de forme possible pour les extrémités de la courroie, permettant le
blocage de celle-ci dans les encoches grâce à un épaulement (10).According to one embodiment - the curved front plate (2) and the support piece (5) can be
metal or a synthetic material (plastic) - the belt (3) can be made of rubber or synthetic material - the curved front plate (2) as well as the belt (3) can
have a coating on the contact surface with the helmet
non-slip (8) (rubber coating for example) the metal parts are treated against corrosion and
external chemical attack. Depending on the type of use, they will
anti-reflective and colored (matt black for vision
nocturnal for example)
By way of example, according to FIGS. 3, 4 and 5, the device for
connection may consist of two notches (9) in the
curved ends of the plate, into which slip on
in force the ends of the belt. Figure 5 gives an example
possible shape for the ends of the strap, allowing
blocking of the latter in the notches by means of a shoulder (10).
Un autre dispositif de raccordement peut être constitué par
des attaches traditionnelles tels que boutons-pression, agrafes, boudes de sangles, bande de type Velcro , ou tout autre dispositif d'attaches connu.Another connection device can be constituted by
traditional fasteners such as snaps, staples, strap ends, Velcro-type tape, or any other known fastening device.
Selon une autre variante, le dispositif de d'ajustement (7) de longueur pourra être intégré ou intrinsèque aux dispositifs de raccordement (4) . According to another variant, the length adjustment device (7) can be integrated or intrinsic to the connection devices (4).
La courroie se compose d'une ou de plusieurs parties, dont une au moins élastique, raccordables l'une à l'autre par un dispositif d'attaches connues. Ceci permet par réglage de longueur, un meilleur ajustement au type et à la taille du casque. The belt consists of one or more parts, at least one of which is elastic, connectable to each other by a known fastening device. This allows by adjustment of length, a better adjustment to the type and size of the helmet.
- la pièce interface (5) est fixée sur la plaque à l'aide de vis ou de rivets. Il est par ailleurs possible de réaliser la plaque et la pièce interface sous une forme non séparable, soit par soudage des pièces, soit en monobloc. - the interface piece (5) is fixed to the plate using screws or rivets. It is also possible to produce the plate and the interface part in a non-separable form, either by welding the parts, or in a single piece.
L'application ne se limite pas à la fixation d'appareils d'observations. On pourra utiliser le dispositif selon l'invention pour fixer des appareils optiques de visée ou de mesures, des dispositifs d'éclairage, des lunettes et masques de protection visuelle. The application is not limited to the attachment of observation devices. The device according to the invention can be used to fix optical sighting or measurement devices, lighting devices, glasses and masks for visual protection.
