- the wing portions 212 of the rear spoiler 21 experience air resistance from air flowing along the sides within the outer surface of the shell 11, pulling the shell 11 rearward.
- the first wing straightening plate 212B and the second wing straightening plate 212C are positioned in the wing gap 21H between the outer surface of the shell 11 and the wing portion 212 .
- the first wing straightening plate 212B and the second wing straightening plate 212C direct the flow of air entering the wing gap 21H from the front end of the wing gap 21H toward the rear and downward, so that the air flows from the rear end of the wing gap 21H. out.
- the wing portion 212 of the rear spoiler 21 changes the direction of the force received from the air flowing along the side portion of the shell 11 from the rearward direction that pulls the shell 11 rearward to the rear lower side.
- Fig. 17 shows the fluid analysis results of the running wind around the helmet.
- the fluid analysis result of running wind is the analysis result using CFD simulation, and in FIG. 17, the darker the part, the higher the flow velocity.
- the inflow guide surface 11C Like the inflow guide surface 11C described above, a surface that rises in a smooth surface reduces the flow velocity of air in front of the raised surface, while increasing the flow speed behind the raised surface. As a result, as shown in FIG. 17, the inflow guide surface 11C follows the direction of the relatively high-speed airflow in the airflow along the outer surface of the shell 11 in the direction in which the inflow guide surfaces 11C are connected. Let As a result, a relatively high-speed airflow flows into the wing gap 21H between the rear side portion of the outer surface of the shell 11 and the wing portion 212 .
- the resultant force FC received by the shell 11 as a result of running wind is a combination of the component FL that lifts the shell 11 and the component FD that pulls the shell 11 rearward.
- the air flowing along the sides of the outer surface of the shell 11 is rectified by the wings 212 of the rear spoiler 21, and the direction of the force acting on the shell 11 is changed rearward and downward.
- This change in direction of one component by the wing portion 212 causes the resultant force FC to change from the dashed line to the solid line in FIG. A component FL that pulls up the shell 11 is reduced.
- the helmet suppresses the force that pulls up the wearer's head, and thus enhances the wearer's feeling of wearing the helmet while driving.
- the rectification by the inflow guide surface 11C substantially suppresses an increase in the component FD that pulls the shell 11 rearward, and enhances the effectiveness of changing the direction of the force acting on the shell 11 rearward and downward.
- the following effects can be obtained. (1) When the air that has flowed along the top of the outer surface of the shell 11 is separated from the helmet, it flows along the spoiler portion 211 further behind the helmet so that it can be prevented from rotating. to form In addition, the air that has flowed along the sides of the outer surface of the shell 11 is further behind the helmet by the amount that it has flowed along the rear flap 22 when it is peeled off from the helmet, so that it is prevented from rotating. to form As a result, the helmet suppresses the formation of vortices behind the helmet and gives the wearer a sense of stability.
- a change in the direction of one component by the wing portion 212 substantially suppresses an increase in the component FD that pulls the shell 11 rearward, while reducing the component FL that pulls the shell 11 up in the resultant force FC.
- the helmet suppresses the force that pulls up the wearer's head, and thus enhances the wearer's feeling of wearing the helmet while driving.
- each wing portion 212 may be provided with two straightening vanes. Two rectifying plates provided in each wing portion 212 enhance the effectiveness of changing the direction of one component by the wing portion 212 .
- the upper end of the rear flap 22 divides the wing gap 21H into a flap gap 22H and another space in layers.
- the division of the wing gap 21H by the upper end of the rear flap 22 encourages the air flowing through the wing gap 21H to flow in layers along the rear sides.
- the rectification by the upper end of the rear flap 22 enhances the effectiveness of the effect according to the above (2).
- the rectification by the upper end of the rear flap 22 allows more detailed control of the direction of the force received from the air flowing along the sides than rectification by the wing portion 212 alone.
- the air that has flowed into the wing gap 21H is first rectified so as to descend from the front end of the wing gap 21H by the first wing straightening plate 212B and the second wing straightening plate 212C provided in the wing portion 212.
- the rectified air is then guided by the upper end of the rear flap 22 into a laminar flow along the rear side, and is further induced rearward and downward by the flap rectifying plate 22A of the rear flap 22. .
- Such rectification by the flap rectification plate 22A enhances the effectiveness of the effect according to the above (2).
- the wing inflow end face 212A is inclined so that the wing gap 21H widens from the front to the rear. As a result, the flow of air is accelerated in the wing gap 21 ⁇ /b>H, and turbulence of the air flow is suppressed near the outer surface of the wing portion 212 .
- the above embodiment can also be implemented with the following modifications.
- the spoiler portion 211 and the two wing portions 212 may be configured as separate resin moldings. It should be noted that, like the rear spoiler 21, a resin molded body in which the spoiler portion 211 and the two wing portions 212 are integrally formed facilitates increasing the mechanical strength of the two wing portions 212 themselves. In addition, the sense of unity between the spoiler portion 211 and the two wing portions 212 is created to enhance the design.
- wing portion 212 makes it easier to equip one wing portion 212 with a plurality of straightening vanes.
- Equipping one wing portion 212 with a plurality of straightening vanes enhances the effectiveness of directing the direction of the force that the wing portion 212 receives from the air toward the rear and downward.

- the rear spoiler 21 and the two rear flaps 22 can constitute an airflow control section.
- the helmet may have a configuration in which the two rear flaps 22 are omitted.
- the helmet having the wing portions 212 changes the direction of the force that the wing portions 212 receive from the air backward and downward. Therefore, even if the helmet provided with the wing portion 212 does not have the rear flap 22, it is possible to obtain the effect according to the above (2).
- the configuration in which the wing gap 21H is divided into two layers by the flap straightening section 22T, which is the upper end of the rear flap 22, contributes to the straightening in the wing gap 21H and the increase in the flow velocity of the air flow, thereby contributing to the air flow control section. Improve the effectiveness of improving the feeling of wearing.
- the front end surface of the wing portion 212 may have a shape that follows the outer surface of the shell 11 . That is, the front end surface of the wing portion 212 may have a shape that makes the thickness of the wing gap 21H substantially uniform from the front to the rear.

Abstract
Description
まず、(i)ヘルメットの全体構成を説明し、次に(ii)第1空気流制御部材の構成を説明し、(iii)第2空気流制御部材の構成を説明し、次に(iv)各空気流制御部材の相対的な関係と、ヘルメットの作用とを説明する。
また、ヘルメットにおける前後方向の中央を通る仮想的な鉛直面は、前後中心面である。前後中心面よりも前側を単に前側、前後中心面よりも後側を単に後側ともいう。
(i)ヘルメットの全体構成
図1が示すように、ヘルメットは、帽体の一例であるシェル11と、第1空気流制御部材の一例であるリアスポイラー21とを備える。ヘルメットは、2つのリアフラップ22を備えてもよい。2つのリアフラップ22の各々は、第2空気流制御部材の一例である。このように、リアスポイラー21と、2つのリアフラップ22とが、空気流制御部を構成してもよい。シェル11は、フロントロアインレット15、フロントアッパーインレット16、およびトップアウトレット17を備えてもよい。
図6が示すように、リアスポイラー21は、左右方向に広がる板状部材である。リアスポイラー21は、スポイラー部211と、2つのウイング部212とを備える。2つのウイング部212は、それぞれ、スポイラー部211の左右方向における両端部に設けられている。
図11が示すように、リアフラップ22は、上下方向に延びる板状部材である。リアフラップ22を構成する材料の一例は、アクリロニトリル・ブタジエン・スチレン共重合体、ポリカーボネート、および、強化繊維を含浸させた熱硬化性樹脂からなる群から選択される1つである。
図13が示すように、リアフラップ22の上端部であるフラップ整流部22Tは、シェル11の外表面から離間している。リアフラップ22のフラップ整流部22Tは、リアフラップ22の内面とシェル11の後方側部との間の隙間であるフラップ隙間22Hを画定する。フラップ隙間22Hは、前方から後方に向けて貫通するトンネル状を有する。フラップ隙間22Hは、シェル11の外表面における後方側部と、当該後方側部に追従する曲面状を有したリアフラップ22とに画定された、シェル11の外表面に沿う薄い層状を有する。隙間用突条リブ22Bは、シェル11の外表面とほぼ当接するように配置される。フラップ整流部22Tと隙間用突条リブ22Bとは、上下方向において、リアフラップ22を上側部分と下側部分とに分割する。フラップ隙間22Hの上下方向における下端は、隙間用突条リブ22Bの上端に位置する。
シェル11の外表面のなかの頂部は、当該頂部に沿って円滑に空気を流す。リアスポイラー21のスポイラー部211は、シェル11の外表面のなかの頂部に沿って流れる空気を、さらにシェル11の後方に向けて流す。スポイラー部211の後方に流れ出る空気は、スポイラー部211に沿って流れた分だけシェル11よりもさらに後方で、ヘルメットから剥がれる。
(1)シェル11の外表面のなかの頂部に沿って流れた空気は、ヘルメットから剥がれる際、スポイラー部211に沿って流れた分だけヘルメットのさらに後方で、回転を抑えられるように、小さい渦流を形成する。また、シェル11の外表面のなかの側部に沿って流れた空気は、ヘルメットから剥がれる際、リアフラップ22に沿って流れた分だけヘルメットのさらに後方で、回転の抑えられるように、小さい渦流を形成する。これらによって、ヘルメットは、ヘルメットの後方における渦流の形成を抑えて装着者に安定感を与える。
[空気流制御部]
・スポイラー部211と2つのウイング部212とは、互いに別体の樹脂成形体として構成されてもよい。なお、リアスポイラー21のように、スポイラー部211と2つのウイング部212とを一体とする樹脂成形体は、2つのウイング部212そのものの機械的な強度を高めることを容易にする。また、スポイラー部211と2つのウイング部212との一体感を醸し出して意匠性を高める。
・ヘルメットは、フルフェイス型ヘルメットに限らず、アゴ部が上昇可能なフリップアップ型ヘルメット、アゴ部の無いオープンフェイス型ヘルメットなどの各種のヘルメットに変更可能である。
