Definitions

• the object of the invention is a protective helmet for motorists with sun protection visor; which comprises: a helmet body provided with a front opening, a sun protection visor, and a rotary operating mechanism of the visor with respect to a horizontal axis between: an inoperative upper position in which said visor is disposed inside the body of the helmet, and a lower operative position in which said visor is disposed facing the eyes of the user of the helmet.
• This invention presents features oriented to allow the selection of different lower operative positions of the sun visor, so that in said lower position the sun visor is placed at a height appropriate to the physiognomy of the user, avoiding contact with the sun. the visor with the nose or the face of the user and guaranteeing the protection of the eyes against the sun's rays.
• This invention is applicable in the sector dedicated to the manufacture of protective helmets for motorcyclists and in particular those helmets provided with a sun protection visor.
• sun protection visor acts as a sunscreen and which is mounted on the helmet with the possibility of turning between a inoperative upper position and a lower operative position in which it is placed in front of the user's eyes.
• the technical problem that arises is the development of a protective helmet for motorists that allows to regulate the lower position of the sun visor, so that in said lower position the visor is at a higher or lower height, adequate in each case to the user's physiognomy and to prevent contact with the user's nose or face.
• the protective helmet of the present invention has characteristics that allow adjusting the lower position of the sun visor, so that in said lower position the visor is at different heights, the user being able to choose that position bottom of the visor that is more comfortable and more appropriate to your appearance.
• the protective helmet for motorists with sun protection visor of this invention is of the type comprising: a helmet body provided with a front opening, a sun protection visor and a mechanism for rotating the visor with respect to a horizontal axis between a inoperative top position, wherein said visor is disposed inside the body of the helmet, and an operative lower position in which said visor is disposed facing the user's eyes.
• the body of the helmet comprises on the sides of the front opening manually positionable stops at different heights, and that limit the rotation of the visor towards the position lower, the contact of the visor with said stops defining different operative lower positions of the visor, depending on the position of said stops.
• FIG. 1 shows a partial view, simplified and in elevation, of a protective helmet for motorcyclists according to the invention, in which it is possible to observe the rotary drive mechanism of the sun protection visor, corresponding to one of the sides of the helmet, and said visor in the inoperative upper position.
• FIG. 2 shows a view analogous to the previous one in which the sun protection visor has been represented in a lower operative position, which is the lowest possible position.
• FIG. 3 shows a detail in elevation of the rotary drive mechanism of the sun visor, in which one of the regulating stops of the lower position of the hinge has been sectioned.
• FIG. 4 shows an exploded view in perspective of the rotary drive mechanism and the sun visor seen from the side outside of the helmet.
• - Figure 5 shows a view analogous to the previous view from the inside side.
• - Figure 6 shows an enlarged detail in front perspective of one of the regulating stops of the lower position of the sun visor, said stop being represented in the lower position of three possible positions.
• FIG. 7 shows a detail of the top of the previous figure seen from the inside side and arranged in an intermediate position of the three possible.
• FIG. 8 and 9 show respective views analogous to figure 1 and in which the sun visor is in the lower closing position, at two different heights, corresponding respectively to the intermediate position and to the upper position of the stops Limiters of movement of the visor towards the lower area.
• the protective helmet for bikers with sun protection visor comprises a body (1) provided with a front opening (11), a visor (2) for sun protection and a mechanism for rotating the visor (2) with respect to a horizontal axis between: an inoperative upper position, shown in FIG. Figure 1, wherein said visor is disposed inside the body (1) of the helmet; and a lower operative position; shown in Figure 2, wherein said visor is disposed in front of the user's eyes.
• the body (1) of the helmet comprises on the sides of the front opening (11) stops (3), as represented in greater detail in figures 6 and 7, manually positionable at different heights, and which limit the rotation of the visor (2) towards the lower position, the contact of the visor (2) defining with said stops different operative lower positions of the visor, depending on the position of said stops (3).
• the stop (3) of each of the sides can be arranged in three different positions: a lower position in which the visor (2) reaches an extreme lower position, represented in figure 1; a position intermediate in which the visor (2) remains in a position shown in figure 8 and slightly higher than in figure 1; and a top position in which the visor (2) remains in a position shown in figure 9, slightly higher than in figure 8.
• the stops (3) of the visor (2) are mounted on guides (4) with the possibility of displacement in the vertical direction; said stops (3) and said guides (4) presenting complementary means (31, 41) for retaining the stops (3) in different height positions.
• said complementary retaining means are constituted by a lug (31) integral with the stop (3) and made possible to move along a channel (41) provided with some constrictions that determine the three possible positions of retention of the stop (3).
• the actuating mechanism of the visor (2) located on opposite sides of the helmet and shown exploded in figures 4 and 5, comprises a base part (5) attached to the body (1) of the helmet, a support part (6). ) fixed to the corresponding end of the visor (2) and assembled with possibility of rotation with respect to the base part (5); and a lever (7) for actuating the support part (6) of the visor, mounted at one of its ends with the possibility of turning with respect to the body (1) of the helmet and provided with means for actuating the support part (6) of the visor (2) between the upper and lower positions of said visor.
• the means for actuating the support piece comprise a lug (71) defined in the lever (7) and housed in an oblong hole (62) of the support part (6) of the visor (2), so that when the lever U rotates on one of its ends the support piece (6) of the visor rotates on the opposite end, together with said visor (2), which makes it possible for the visor to turn in the same direction, ascending or descending , that the actuating lever (7), resulting therefore intuitive the actuation of the lever to achieve the rotation of the screen towards the upper and lower positions.
• the base part (5) comprises guides (51) for moving appendages (61) of the support part (6) of the visor (2) during its turning movement.
• the visor (2) comprises a clip (21) for fixing an anchor (63) of the support part (6) of said visor (2).
