Definitions

  • the object of the invention relates to a securing device for a protective helmet for motorcyclists and the like.
  • the securing devices consisted of a chin strap that was placed under the chin with an adjustment loop to ensure its tightening.
  • the device did not prevent the helmet from being torn off in the event of a violent shock directed from back to front in the event of a fall. If this chin strap was placed as close as possible to the larynx, with significant tension, it caused discomfort to the user.
  • chin straps exert at the point of their anchoring, on each side of the helmet, a force clearly offset relative to the transverse median plane of the wearer's cranial box, which gives rise to a tensile torque during a shock to be made. tilt the helmet around an axis passing substantially through the wearer's ears.
  • the device according to the invention eliminates these drawbacks and fully assures the helmet of its protective role of the cranium whatever the stresses which it undergoes during an impact or several successive omni-directional impacts.
  • the device comprises (FIG. 1) a front chin strap 1 and a rear hoop 2 pivoting on the fixed points 3, 4.
  • the chinstrap 1 pivots on the two pivots integral with the shell and placed inside symmetrically with respect to the median plane of the latter, but at its front part.
  • the chinstrap 1 ( Figure 1, 2) has two fingers 5, 5 'projecting inwardly and engaging in two corresponding oblong slots 6 formed in the arch 2. This synchronization device allows to obtain that when 'the chin strap 1 is printed with a pivoting of a certain amplitude, the rear arch 2 pivots by a corresponding angle.
  • the chin strap 1 has on its internal facing a shock absorbing lining 7 also serving to take up play for the adjustment, according to the different morphologies of the users.
  • the rear roll bar has a neck cushion 8 which hugs the underside of the neck when the chin strap is in place.
  • the locking device in Figure 1 ( Figure 4, 5, 6, 7, 8.) consists of the toothed sector 9 of substantially triangular shape and the top of which is positioned by the orifice 10 and the screw 11, which fixes the pivot 3 on the hull 20; more this toothed sector 9 is made integral with the shell 20 and thus immobilized in rotation by gluing or sealing on the latter.
  • the side opposite this vertex forms a circular arc of determined radius which includes a rack 12 with radius corresponding to the radius of the circular arc and the teeth of which are oriented towards the center of the sector.
  • Each branch of the chin strap 1 has on its outer part a groove 13, 13 ′ of rectangular section opening downwards and placed in the axis of the pin 14, 14 ′ for pivoting the chin strap.
  • this groove 13 slides a latch 15 having at its middle part a notch at mid thickness 16, one of the edges, the upper, has a toothing 17 corresponding to that of. the rack 12 and the other the lower 18 has an arc of a radius corresponding to that of the base of the part 9 increased by a length slightly greater than the toothing height of the rack 12, the latch 15 being placed in the groove 13, under the action of the spring 19, the teeth 17 of the latch 15 are engaged in that 12 of the sector 9 and the chin strap 1 can no longer pivot.
  • the rear hoop 2 which is integral with the pivoting of the chin strap 1 is also immobilized.
  • the helmet once secured can in no way be torn off by an accidental solicitation, except that of unlocking by simultaneous action on the two latches. If during an accidental impact on one of the sides, one of the latches is pressed, or one of the locks is destroyed, the other lock will hold the helmet enough to prevent it from leaving the wearer's head, where practically absolute security.
  • this device prevents any movement of the helmet relative to the head and therefore provides undeniable comfort, if only by the invariable positioning of the front opening, which avoids any partial obstruction of the field of view. visibility.
  • this device can be used for so-called “integral” helmets, the head entry opening of which is a closed oval, as well as for so-called “enveloping” helmets, whose shell is entirely open on the front part.
