Definitions

  • the present invention relates to an accessory for a safety helmet such as the ones used in mining and construction activities, complying with the Ansi Z89 Standard, said helmet is formed by two containers having engaging means for the standard slots of the helmet, wherein said containers have a light on a front outer wall for illuminating the work zone and have a light on the back outer wall for showing the worker's location, said light can be of red color.
  • a removable lid to provide access to change the battery feeding the lights as well as the electronic system which can be stored in the containers wherein said electronic system can provide several functionalities such as the impact detection, detection of extended periods without movements, fumes or gas detection, sending messages to the outside, automatized sending of warning or S.O.S alerts, the worker's localization, vibration notices or warning signals by means of sound or light, among others.
  • the most used safety helmets worldwide correspond to the white plastic helmet which complies with the Ansi Z89 standard, said helmet specifies the conditions of impact protection, penetration protection and electric insulation protection, which are complied with by means of a simple design of a resistant plastic dome which is connected to a strap of a soft and padding material which supports the helmet on the user's scalp.
  • This strap also has the mission of separating the crown of the head from the plastic layer of the dome of the helmet in such a way of leaving a clearance or space of enough air to allow the user to be insulated from a strong impact.
  • FIG. 1 of the figures This embodiment of the previous art is shown in figure 1 of the figures, wherein a helmet (1 ) with a dome (2), a visor (3) and a standard slot (4) is positioned on the central zone of a support element (6) by means of bolts (7) to mount a spotlight (5).
  • FIG. 2 of figures This embodiment of the previous art is shown in figure 2 of figures, wherein a helmet (1 ) with a dome (2) and a visor (3) are installed on the LEDs outer front zone (8), perforating the front portion of the helmet (1 ) wherein towards the back portion there is a cavity (9) to house a battery for the provision of electric power.
  • document WO 2013/076325 discloses a helmet made up of a plastic dome containing in its interior an electronic control system, actuators and data-acquisition sensors capable of performing the following functions: 1 . detecting fumes; 2. detecting impacts; 3. detecting extended periods without movement; 4. sending two-way messages to the outside; 5. automatically sending alarms— SOS, impacts, fumes, person motionless— to the outside; 6. actively locating the worker; 7. passively locating the worker; 8. vibrating and luminous warnings to the operator; and 9. luminous location when launching an SOS by means of "headlamp" LEDs.
  • JP2007254926 is disclosed a helmet with a molded container on the outer back portion of the dome with the purpose of being configured in order to form a container to load it with an electronic unit.
  • the loading of the containing unit is performed by means of the selection of one from multiple electronic devices which can be connected to several inner accessories.
  • Some inner accessories such as, for instance, the speakers for the transmission of messages, are located inside the helmet which means that it is necessary to perforate the dome in order to make the connection.
  • Document US 201 1314594 discloses a hinge mechanism for attaching ear accessories to a helmet which allows an accessory to be attached at a point outside the helmet shell utilizing, for example, a slidable mounting rail, and to reach under the edge of dome of the helmet so that the accessory is supported in contact with the wearer or user's head.
  • the hinge mechanism is well suited for use in connection with military helmets that have a "bulge” or protrusion over the ear.
  • This hinge mechanism is attached to the military helmet by means of the utilization of through bolts going through the dome which means that the Ansi Z89 standard will no longer be complied with.
  • Document US 2009/0038056 discloses an electronic module adapter for headgear which includes a housing defining a chamber.
  • a clip is positioned on the dome and is adapted to attach the housing to the helmet.
  • a cap lamp mounting bracket is optionally positioned on the dome and is adapted to attach a cap lamp to the dome.
  • Electronic circuitry is positioned within the chamber of the housing or dome and may include a radio frequency identification tag, a global positioning system tag and/or a gas sensor.
  • the housing defining a chamber which is molded on the exterior of the dome and specifically on the front portion, in order to mount an exterior lamp that allows illuminating the work zone.
  • an objective of the present invention is providing an outer accessory for standard helmets complying with the Ansi Z89 standard so as to be mounted on the outer slots of said helmet, which is provided with a front and back illumination which allows making the helmet's user visible in 360 Q and also, generating a housing means to store an electronic system which provides functionalities such as for example impact detection; detection of extended periods without movements, fumes or gas detection, sending of messages to the outside, automatized sending of warnings or S.O.S alerts, localization of the worker, vibration notices or warnings by means of sound or light.
  • Another objective of the present invention is providing an accessory which can be mounted on standard safety helmets which are already in use in mining plants or construction zones without the need of having to manufacture especially designed helmets to provide the previously mentioned functionalities.
  • the present invention relates to an accessory for a safety helmet such as, for instance, the ones used in mining and construction activities which complies with the Ansi Z89 standard, which incorporates own illumination and comprises a front light projection to illuminate the surroundings and a back light which can be of red color to make the helmet's user visible in 360 Q .
  • the main characteristic of the proposed accessory is that it is outwardly connected and mounted through standard side slots that have the helmets, under the ANSI Z89 standard and which are normally used to house hearing protectors of optional use.
  • the accessory When being outwardly connected to the helmet, the accessory does not modify the standard common helmet and allows maintaining the conditions with regard to the impact protection, penetration protection and electric insulation protection.
  • the accessory has a replaceable or rechargeable battery which is attached to the exterior in such a way that it is not necessary to remove the accessory from the helmet in order to recharge it.
  • Another important feature of the proposed feature is that since it has its own electric feeding, it is possible to integrate additional functionalities to the electronic system located in its interior as for instance, impact, temperature, gas, lighting sensors (for automatically activating the lights in low lighting conditions), wireless communication or others of small size and that can be integrated into the accessory.
  • the accessory can be in wireless communication with sensors or apparatuses located in the mining plants or work zones in such a way that when being located on the outer side zones of the helmet, it allows an optimal high position for an antenna.
  • the accessory is formed by two containers which have engaging means for the standard slots of the helmet, wherein said containers have a light on a front outer wall for illuminating the work zone and have a light on the back outer wall for showing the worker' s location; said light can be of red color.
