Definitions

  • the present invention relates to an accessory kit for helmet, which can be particularly applied to motorcycling industry.
  • motorcycling helmets generally comprise a rigid plastic cap internally lined with soft padding made up of several layers of various materials.
  • the cap has a substantially spherical external profile, with an open base through which the motorcyclist's head is inserted, and a front opening that is either open, or else closed by a transparent visor that can be opened.
  • helmets Due to their basically spherical shape, helmets do not have stable support surfaces other than the open base, which nevertheless is not suitable for the purpose because it tends to get easily soiled around the edge. This is an undesired feature because when used it comes into contact with the head and neck of the motorcyclist.
  • the shape of the rigid cap cannot be modified, e.g. by making projections or level areas that create a support surface, for safety reasons, since these modifications could compromise the rigidity of the shape and the impact resistance of the helmet
  • Object of the present invention is to create a low cost accessory kit that can be applied fully reversibly to any helmet, to provide a stable area of support without in any way compromising its robustness and general safety.

  • a generic motorcyclist helmet 10 comprises a rigid plastic cap 12 internally lined with soft padding made of several layers of different materials (not illustrated).
  • the cap 12 has a basically spherical external profile, with an open base 14 through which the motorcyclist's head is inserted, and a front opening closed by a transparent mask that can be opened 18, through which the motorcyclist (not illustrated) has visual access to the exterior.
  • the first support 20 has an elongated profile delimited by two basically triangular end surfaces 22, 24, positioned symmetrically inclined with respect to an intermediate cross-sectional plane so as to converge downwards (Fig.4).
  • the first support 20 has:
  • a concave rear anchorage surface 26 delimited by two symmetrically opposite sides 26a, 26b of the end surfaces 22, 24, and is extended between a curved upper edge 28 and a curved lower edge 30, and is basically shaped to fit together with the rear surface of the cap 12,
  • a protrusion 38, 40 (Figs. 2, 3) whose apex coincides with the point at which the flat upper face 32, the curved lower face 36, and the corresponding end surface 22 or 24 meet.
  • Each of the two protrusions rising from the anchorage surface will define a support point for the helmet, as outlined more in detail hereinafter.
  • the accessory kit comprises a second moulded support 42 made of the same material as the first support 20, that can also be fixed to the external rear surface of the cap 12 at a spaced position below the first support
  • the second support 42 has a concave rear anchorage surface 44 with a peripheral profile that is preferably and basically elliptical and shaped to basically fit together with the rear surface of the cap 12.
  • the second support 42 develops from the anchorage surface 44 with a tapered lateral surface 46 terminating in peak 48 which will define a third point of support for the helmet.
  • each anchorage surface 26 and 44 of the two supports 20 and 42 has a strip of hooked Velcro 50 and 52 respectively glued thereonto, with a corresponding counter-strip of looped Velcro 54, 56 (see in particular Fig. 10b) glued to the cap 12 in the area where the support is to be fixed.
  • the supports Due to the deformable material of which they are made, the supports easily adapt to most helmet shapes and sizes. As illustrated in Fig. 10, once the supports are fixed to the helmet, together they form three support points at the apexes of a triangle set on a plane protruding beyond the spherical surface of the cap 12, so as to form a stable support base for the helmet 10.
  • thermoplastic elastomer or rubber makes the use of the supports according to the invention risk free, given that this material cannot damage the helmet material even in case of a violent impact
  • the configuration of the two supports is advantageously such to obtain a suitable aerofoil profile that does not compromise the aerodynamic features of the helmet
  • Figs. 13, 14 illustrate die accessory kit according to an alternative embodiment of the invention, wherein the supports 120 and 142 have the same shape and are made of the same material as the supports described in the previous embodiments, but rather than being fixed to the helmet by means of Velcro strips, they have respective pairs of suction pads 160a, 160b and 162a, 162b at the opposite ends of the corresponding anchorage surfaces 126 and 144.
  • support 142 comprises two protrusions as the support 120.
  • Figs. 15-17 illustrate a further embodiment of the second support 242, wherein the anchorage surface 244, instead of having an elongated elliptical profile along a straight axis, has a profile extended basically along a V-shaped curved axis that confers it a greater rigidity in the transverse direction.
  • kit described above can be adapted to any type of motorcycling or sports helmet with a similar profile, either closed as illustrated in Fig. 1 or open, in which the visor and the opening for inserting the head are connected.
  • the moulded supports could be fixed to different areas of the external surface of the cap, for example on the upper part of the helmet rather than on the back.
  • the supports could be fixed to the helmet with fixings other than those illustrated, e.g. with double- sided adhesive tape.
  • the kit may also comprise just one support of the first type, so as to create two auxiliary support points, to which one could add the outermost point of the cap, or else two supports of the first type so as to create four support points.
  • the support of the first type could also be made of two symmetrical parts rather than a single piece.
