Description

Technical specification

A helmet body, a bone conductor provided to be in contact with the head when the helmet is worn, for transmitting bone conduction sound, and a connector for connecting a sound source for outputting a transmission sound signal to the bone conduction element. A helmet comprising:

Used as a helmet for auto pie worn when riding a motorcycle, or as a safety hat for work sites, lasers, inspections, etc. Background art

If you are traveling with a plurality of autopilots for touring, if your touring friends can communicate with each other using wireless means, you can enjoy touring more. As a wireless means, a microphone is attached to a motorcycle helmet, and a headphone-type speech force applied to the wearer's ear or an earphone-type speech force inserted into the wearer's ear is arranged. Is connected to the transceiver. A helmet body, a first bone conduction element provided to abut the head when the helmet is worn, for transmitting bone conduction sound, and a first bone conduction element for outputting a transmission sound signal to the first bone conduction element A first connector for connecting a sound source of the first type; a second bone conduction element for transmitting bone conduction sound, which is provided so as to be in contact with the head when the helmet is mounted; and a second bone conduction element for transmitting the bone conduction sound. A second connector for connecting a second sound source that outputs a transmitted sound signal to the head, wherein the bone conduction element and the second bone conduction element have a head It is provided so as to contact the target position or almost the target position.

However, in this wireless method, since the headphone-type speaker is put on the ear or the earphone-type speaker is inserted into the ear, there is a possibility that the hearing of the ambient sound necessary for safe driving may be hindered. is there. Disclosure of the invention

By using the helmet of the present invention, it is possible to listen to voice and music without blocking the wearer's ears, so that there is no hindrance to the surrounding sound, and when using a headphone-type speaker or earphone-type speaker. This makes it possible to release the wearer from the feeling of pressure on the ears of the wearer, so there is little feeling of fatigue even after listening for a long time. Furthermore, voices and music transmitted via the osteoconductor when wearing the helmet of the present invention reach the inner ear directly through the skull, so that ambient sounds are not mixed. It is natural and easy to concentrate and listen. Squid is also clearly heard even in noisy places, and can be easily heard by people with hearing impairments.

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION It is an object of the present invention to provide a hologram that has a wireless communication function and a music listening function, but does not block the wearer's ear with a speaker.

To achieve this object, the helmet of the present invention comprises: a helmet body; a bone conduction element for transmitting bone conduction sound provided so as to come into contact with the head when the helmet is mounted; and a bone conduction element. And a connector for connecting a sound source that outputs a transmitted sound signal to the bone transducer.The bone conductor vibrates upon receiving a transmitted sound signal (sound signal) output from the sound source, and generates the vibration. It transmits sound to the inner ear by transmitting it to the skull and vibrating the skull, or through the skull (that is, it is not a transmission mode that transmits airway sound from the external auditory canal to the eardrum or the inner ear). It can be used without blocking the ears by abutting the head other than the ears, such as the frequent part (頰 bone), the parietal region or the occipital region. That Yes, the bone conduction element and the connector are usually connected by a cable or a lead wire The connector can be fixed to the helmet body, and the sound source is a radio transceiver (transceiver or mobile phone) Or a music player such as an MD player. When using a wireless transceiver, a microphone (which is connected to the wireless transceiver via a connector) is usually provided on the helmet body. The microphone can be attached to the body of the Henolemet.

In order for the helmet to have a higher function, the first bone conduction for transmitting bone conduction sound, which is provided to abut (or touch) the head when the helmet is attached and the helmet, A first connector for connecting a first sound source for outputting a transmission sound signal to the first bone conduction element; and a first connector for contacting (or contacting) the head when the helmet is mounted. A second bone conductor for transmitting a bone conduction sound, a second connector for connecting a second sound source for outputting a transmission sound signal to the second bone conduction element, and a force helmet. Constitute. Typically, the first connector and the second connector are integrally formed. Normally, different sound sources are used for the first sound source connected to the first connector and the second sound source connected to the second connector. For example, if a music player is used as the first sound source and a wireless device is used as the second sound source, listening to music and talking (or talking) can be performed simultaneously. In this case, it is preferable to provide the first osteoconductor and the second osteoconductor so as to abut on the target position or almost the target position of the head so that the vibrations from both sound sources do not interfere with each other. . For example, the first osteoconductor and the second osteoconductor are brought into contact with the left and right frequent parts, or with the forehead and the occipital region.

Claims

Claims The pie helmet is a plastic full-face helmet body and a pair of helmets mounted inside the helmet body so as to abut around the left and right ears (頰) of the head when worn. , A microphone attached to the inside of the helmet so that it is located in front of the lip when worn, a connector for connecting a sound source, a cable for connecting the osteoconductive element and the connector, a microphone and a connector A helmet body having a window formed on the front side, and a 端 side end rotatably attached to the helmet body to open and close the window. It is composed of a transparent plastic goggle part and a force.

Here, a transceiver is used as a sound source connected to the connector, and the transceiver is connected to a terminal connection portion for a transceiver of the connector. It is preferable that the transceiver be capable of simultaneous conversation. By using such a transceiver, it is possible to operate the transceiver by removing one hand from the motorcycle handle between the time of transmission (at the time of transmission) and the time of reception (at the time of reception). Since there is no need to wait, there is no risk of impairing the stability of handle operation.

The other person's voice radio wave received by the transceiver is converted into an electric signal (transmitted sound signal) and transmitted to the bone conductor. The bone conductor receives the electric signal and vibrates, and the sound vibration is applied to the skull of the helmet wearer. introduce. The sound vibration transmitted from the osteoconductor to the skull reaches the inner ear of the helmet wearer, who can hear the sound emitted by others. In addition, the voice emitted by the Henoremet wearer is converted into an electric signal by a microphone, transmitted to the transipper, and transmitted to the other party.
