The inner section (2) is stamped from a plastics sheet, and is tensed in place within the outer section (1). The outer section (1) has a spherical curvature, and the inner section (2) is tinted and has an impact-resistant coating. A seal (14) is around the edge of the inner section (2) where it lies against the outer section (1).

Description

Die Erfindung betrifft ein Visier für einen Helm, insbesondere einen Motorradhelm, umfassend eine äußere Kunststoffscheibe und eine innere Kunststoffscheibe, welche unter Einschluß eines Luftpolsters über einen Dichtungsrand relativ zueinander auf Abstand gehalten sind.The invention relates to a visor for a helmet, in particular a motorcycle helmet, comprising an outer plastic disc and an inner Plastic disc, which includes an air cushion over a Sealing edge are kept relative to each other at a distance.

Bekannte derartige Visiere umfassen einen relativ kompakten Rahmen, in welchem die beiden Scheiben festgelegt sind. Hierdurch ergibt sich der Nachteil, daß bei teilweise geöffnetem Visier durch den unteren Rahmenabschnitt die Sicht beeinträchtigt wird.Known visors of this type comprise a relatively compact frame, in which the two disks are fixed. This results in the Disadvantage that with the visor partially open through the lower frame section the view is impaired.

Hiervon ausgehend liegt der Erfindung die Aufgabe zugrunde, ein Visier der eingangs genannten Art so auszugestalten, daß die Nachteile herkömmlicher derartiger Konstruktionen vermieden werden und eine kostengünstige Herstellbarkeit und Montage gewährleistet ist, wobei ein Maximum an individueller Anpaßbarkeit an die individuellen Wünsche des jeweiligen Benutzers erreichbar sein soll.Proceeding from this, the object of the invention is a visor of the type mentioned in such a way that the disadvantages more conventional such constructions can be avoided and an inexpensive Manufacture and assembly is guaranteed, with a maximum of individual adaptability to the individual wishes of each User should be reachable.

Diese Aufgabe wird erfindungsgemäß dadurch gelöst, daß die äußere Scheibe aus Kunststoff gespritzt ist und nach innen vorspringende Randbereiche aufweist, in die eine aus flachem, plattenartigen Kunststoffmaterial gestanzte Scheibe formschlüssig einsetzbar ist. Insbesondere ist vorgesehen, daß die innere gestanzte Scheibe der äußeren Scheibe unter einer die innere Scheibe aufwölbenden Vorspannung anliegt. This object is achieved in that the outer Washer is molded from plastic and inwardly projecting edge areas has, in one of flat, plate-like plastic material stamped washer can be used form-fitting. In particular, it is provided that the inner punched disc of the outer disc under one die inner washer bulging bias.

Durch das Vorsehen einer gespritzten äußeren Scheibe ist es zunächst möglich, einstückig mit dieser Scheibe vorspringende Randbereiche auszubilden und dort die innere Scheibe festzulegen, ohne daß es für die Halterung und Verbindung der Scheiben eines gesonderten Rahmenteils bedürfte. Hierdurch werden in allen Positionen des Visiers besonders günstige Sichtverhältnisse geschaffen. Die Verbindung von innerer Visierscheibe mit der äußeren Visierscheibe ist durch einen einzigen Handgriff herstellbar, und trotzdem liegt die innere Scheibe der äußeren dicht an. Ein wesentlicher Vorteil besteht darin, daß nicht ein fester Verbund von äußerer und innerer Scheibe geschaffen wird, so daß der Benutzer die innere Scheibe z. B. hinsichtlich ihrer Farbtönung frei auswählen und ggf. auch nachträglich ändern kann. Da als innere Scheibe lediglich eine gestanzte Platte erforderlich ist, läßt diese sich besonders kostengünstig herstellen.By providing a molded outer pane, it is initially possible to form protruding edge areas in one piece with this disk and fix the inner disc there without using it for the bracket and connection of the panes would require a separate frame part. This makes them particularly cheap in all positions of the visor Visibility created. The connection of the inner visor with the outer visor, it can be produced in a single step, and yet the inner disc lies close to the outer one. An essential one The advantage is that not a firm bond from the outside and inner pane is created so that the user can see the inner pane e.g. B. freely choose with regard to their color and if necessary also later can change. As an inner disc, only a stamped plate is necessary, this can be produced particularly inexpensively.

Zur Erzielung der Vorspannung der inneren Scheibe ist günstigerweise vorgesehen, daß diese mit ihren äußeren Enden an Vorsprüngen an der Innenseite der äußeren Scheibe derart anliegt, daß die so erzeugte Biegung einen geringfügig geringeren Biegungsradius aufweist als die äußere Scheibe in diesem Bereich.To achieve the preload of the inner disc is convenient provided that these with their outer ends on projections on the inside the outer disc rests in such a way that the bend thus generated has a slightly smaller radius of curvature than the outer one Disc in this area.

Insbesondere können die Enden der inneren Scheibe die Vorsprünge der äußeren Scheibe zumindest teilweise formschlüssig umgreifen.In particular, the ends of the inner disc can be the projections of the embrace the outer pane at least partially in a form-fitting manner.

Da die äußere Scheibe erfindungsgemäß durch Spritzen hergestellt ist, ist es möglich, diese sphärisch vorgewölbt auszugestalten, d. h. sie kann auch eine Wölbung in einer vertikalen Schnittebene aufweisen, wodurch besonders günstige Sichtverhältnisse und außerdem eine besonders dynamische Optik geschaffen werden.Since the outer pane is manufactured according to the invention by injection molding it is possible to design these spherically bulging, d. H. she can too have a curvature in a vertical section plane, which makes it special favorable visibility and also a particularly dynamic Optics can be created.

Die innere Scheibe kann durchgefärbt getönt sein oder mit einer getönten Beschichtung sowie mit einer Antibeschlag-Beschichtung versehen sein. Solche Antibeschlag-Beschichtungen lassen sich besonders günstig auf Celluloseacetat-Scheiben aufbringen. Die äußere Scheibe, mit einer äußeren, die Kratzfestigkeit erhöhenden Beschichtung besteht insbesondere aus Polycarbonat.The inner pane can be tinted solid or tinted Coating and be provided with an anti-fog coating. Anti-fog coatings of this type are particularly inexpensive Apply cellulose acetate slices. The outer disc, with an outer, the scratch-resistant coating consists in particular of Polycarbonate.

Hinsichtlich der äußeren Scheibe kann weiterhin mit Vorteil vorgesehen sein, daß Visierlager- bzw. Verstellabschnitte einstückig mit der Scheibe gespritzt sind. Dabei ist es möglich, diese Bereiche so auszugestalten, daß das erfindungsgemäße Visier auch zur Nachrüstung von Helmen verwendet werden kann, die bisher mit Visieren mit Rahmen ausgestattet sind.With regard to the outer disc can also be advantageously provided be that visor bearing or adjustment sections in one piece with the disc are injected. It is possible to design these areas so that the visor according to the invention also used for retrofitting helmets that have been equipped with visors with frames so far.

Günstigerweise sind die Lager- bzw. Verstellabschnitte gleichzeitig als Anschlag für die innere Scheibe ausgebildet.Conveniently, the bearing or adjustment sections are simultaneously a stop trained for the inner disc.

Die an der äußeren Scheibe anliegende Seite der inneren Scheibe ist mit einer vorzugsweise aufgespritzten umlaufenden Silicon-Dichtung versehen, welche in Verbindung mit der elastischen Vorwölbung der inneren Scheibe einen dichten Abschluß des Luftpolsters zwischen den beiden Scheiben gewährleistet.The side of the inner disk that is in contact with the outer disk is included a preferably sprayed-on all-round silicone seal, which in connection with the elastic bulge of the inner pane a tight seal of the air cushion between the two panes guaranteed.

Nachfolgend wird die Erfindung anhand eines bevorzugten Ausführungsbeispiels in Verbindung mit der Zeichnung näher erläutert. Dabei zeigen:

Ein in der Zeichnung dargestelltes Visier umfaßt eine äußere Scheibe 1 und eine innere Scheibe 2.A visor shown in the drawing comprises an outer disc 1 and an inner disc 2.

Die äußere Scheibe 1 ist aus Polycarbonat gespritzt und weist eine sphärische Vorwölbung 3 auf. Die Außenseite 4 ist mit einer Antikratz-Beschichtung versehen. Am unteren Rand 5 der Außenseite befindet sich ein Ansatz 6, der als Handhabungshilfe beim Öffnen und Schließen des Visiers dient.The outer pane 1 is injection molded from polycarbonate and has a spherical shape Bulge 3 on. The outside 4 has an anti-scratch coating Mistake. At the bottom 5 is located on the outside an approach 6, which as a handling aid when opening and closing the Visor serves.

An der Innenseite der äußeren Scheibe 1 verlaufen nach innen vorspringende Randbereiche 7, die besonders gut in der Schnittdarstellung gemäß Fig. 2a erkennbar sind.On the inside of the outer disc 1 protrude inwards Edge areas 7, which are particularly good in the sectional view according to FIG. 2a are recognizable.

Die innere Scheibe 2 besteht aus Celluloseacetat und ist aus einem plattenförmigen Ausgangsmaterial gestanzt. The inner disc 2 consists of cellulose acetate and is made of a plate-shaped Punched starting material.

Die Außenkontur 8 der inneren Scheibe ist so geformt und dimensioniert, daß sich die innere Scheibe 2 formschlüssig an der Innenseite der äußeren Scheibe 1 derart anbringen läßt, d. h. die vorspringenden Randbereiche 7 der äußeren Scheibe 1 umgeben zumindest soweit die innere Scheibe, daß diese formschlüssig festgelegt ist.The outer contour 8 of the inner disk is shaped and dimensioned that the inner disc 2 is positively on the inside of the outer Can attach disc 1 so d. H. the protruding edge regions 7 the outer disc 1 surround the inner disc at least as far that this is form-fitting.

Diese Festlegung wird dadurch fixiert, daß im Bereich der hinteren Enden 9 der inneren Scheibe 2 Ansätze 10 mit Ausnehmungen 11 vorgesehen sind, die sich nach innen erstreckende Vorsprünge 12 an der Innenseite der äußeren Scheibe 1 formschlüssig umgreifen. Die Vorsprünge 12 sind mit der äußeren Scheibe 1 einstückig gespritzt und können gleichzeitig auch als Lager- bzw. Verstellabschnitte zur Lagerung der Scheibe am Helm dienen.This definition is fixed by the fact that 9 the inner disc 2 lugs 10 are provided with recesses 11, the inwardly extending protrusions 12 on the inside of the outer Grip disc 1 in a form-fitting manner. The projections 12 are with the outer disc 1 injection molded in one piece and can also be used as Bearing or adjustment sections are used to mount the lens on the helmet.

Der Abstand der Ausnehmungen 11 in Umfangsrichtung ist etwas größer als der Abstand der Vorsprünge 12 in Umfangsrichtung, so daß die Innenseite 2 im arretierten Zustand unter Vorspannung an der äußeren Scheibe 1 anliegt. Wenn die innere Scheibe 2 längere Zeit in diesem vorgespannten, eingesetzten Zustand verbleibt, tritt aufgrund der Fließeigenschaften des Kunststoffmaterials eine Verformung dahingehend ein, daß auch die innere Scheibe 2 eine leichte sphärische Wölbung erhält.The distance between the recesses 11 in the circumferential direction is somewhat larger than the distance of the protrusions 12 in the circumferential direction so that the inside 2 in the locked state under tension on the outer pane 1 is present. If the inner disk 2 is biased in this for a long time, used condition remains, occurs due to the flow properties of the Plastic material a deformation in that the inner Disk 2 receives a slight spherical curvature.

Zur Erzielung eines abgeschlossenen Luftpolsters 13 zwischen innerer Scheibe 2 und äußerer Scheibe 1 ist auf die Außenseite der inneren Scheibe 2 eine Silicon-Dichtung 14 aufgespritzt.To achieve a closed air cushion 13 between the inner Washer 2 and outer washer 1 is on the outside of the inner washer 2 a silicone seal 14 sprayed.
