Definitions

  • the present invention relates to the technical field of safety helmets and hats, with particular reference to the field of helmets which are used in the sector of security and rescue.
  • the helmet constitutes the main form of protection during the performance of crowd control and anti-riot activities.
  • the helmets intended for this specific use which are currently supplied to the security forces of the various countries of the world are, in almost all cases, designed for other purposes and adapted, often superficially, to the requirements of anti-riot activities.
  • the ballistic helmet was conceived in order to protect the user's head from direct and indirect firearm shots and bullet fragments; it is rather unstable during movement and offers little protection to the face and the back of the neck. It is usually adapted for anti-riot use by means of the application of a front transparent shield.
  • the other type of existing helmet is a classic motorcycle helmet, and as such was conceived to protect the head from a single violent impact in the event of a road accident, having the merits of a high level of sound insulation and guaranteeing a certain amount of internal ventilation by taking advantage only of the speed of the vehicle.
  • the main features and merits of these helmets in the respective fields of use such as, for example, the high resistance to firearm shots or to violent high-speed impacts, become superfluous and redundant features in crowd control and anti-riot activities, and at times are even counterproductive and dangerous.
  • the sound insulation of a motorcycle helmet makes it difficult to hear orders and ambient noises, while the possibility of dissipating body heat from within, normally subject to the speed reached by the vehicle used by the person wearing the helmet, may be a cause of excessive heating and therefore of discomfort for the user who is on foot.
  • the helmet object of the present invention overcomes the described disadvantages and may find advantageous application not only in the security sector (police, traffic wardens, etc.) but also in the sector of rescue workers, such as, for example, doctors and paramedics on board ambulances, speleologists, firefighters, stewards in service at sporting events, pit lane crew members at motor races, as well as the sporting sector in general and the motorcycle sector in particular.
  • rescue workers such as, for example, doctors and paramedics on board ambulances, speleologists, firefighters, stewards in service at sporting events, pit lane crew members at motor races, as well as the sporting sector in general and the motorcycle sector in particular.

  • Fig. 1_b shows a second perspective view of the helmet object of the present invention.
  • Fig. 2 shows a side view of the helmet object of the present invention.
  • Fig. 3 shows a functional block diagram of a preferred embodiment of the control circuitry integrated into the helmet object of the present invention.
  • the present invention concerns a multifunction safety helmet, in particular for crowd control and anti-riot activities, adapted to provide the user with maximum comfort and, at the same time, guaranteeing complete protection from blows and impacts and maximum flexibility of use thanks to the ample presence of integrated electronic circuitry, adapted to automate, perform and manage a large number of functions which can be controlled by the user.
  • the device object of the present invention is a multifunction safety helmet, in particular for crowd control and anti-riot activities, adapted to provide the user with maximum comfort while at the same time guaranteeing complete protection from blows and impacts and maximum flexibility of use.
  • the main features of the safety helmet according to the present invention are:
  • the safety helmet according to the present invention may be produced in various scalable versions so as to adapt to the various requirements which may arise, having supplementary apparatuses mounted thereupon and adapted to perform additional functions to assist the user.

  • the safety helmet comprises a main body 10 - provided by means of a body shell made of shockproof plastic material, preferably constructed from ABS or polycarbonate or with mixtures of polycarbonate-based thermoplastic polymers such as, for example, the material commercially known as Bayblend® - associated with an external visor 1 characterized by a double transverse and longitudinal curvature and, preferably, with a retractable internal sunshield visor, which can be moved manually by the user or automatically.
  • shockproof plastic material preferably constructed from ABS or polycarbonate or with mixtures of polycarbonate-based thermoplastic polymers
  • an external visor 1 characterized by a double transverse and longitudinal curvature and, preferably, with a retractable internal sunshield visor, which can be moved manually by the user or automatically.
  • Said external visor 11 is equipped with a reinforcing bar 12, preferably made of aluminium or from a material with similar properties of strength and lightness, fold-away housed within the upper part of said external visor 11 , and with a gasket 12, which is also fold- away housed within the upper part of said external visor 11 and not visible, adapted to hermetically seal the upper part of said visor with said main body 10, so as to prevent the possible introduction of dangerous substances from the outside.
