Abstract

The helmet consists of a two-part plastic shell, the upper plastic shell (10) being supported by the lower plastic shell (10). The upper plastic shell (10) has an inner shell of shock-absorbing material with an inner shape which corresponds to the head of a child. The empty space between the child's head and the inner shell is filled with a cap (3) or filling pads. The gap (5) between the lower plastic shell (11) and the ear is filled by the ear flap part (4) of the cap (3) when the helmet is used with a cap. <IMAGE>

Description

Die vorliegende Erfindung betrifft einen Allzweckhelm/Fahrradhelm mit Mütze/Ohrenklappen, der zu jeder Jahreszeit benutzt werden kann.The present invention relates to an all-purpose helmet / bicycle helmet with a cap / ear flaps that can be used in any season.

Die vorbekannten Kinderhelme eignen sich nur schlecht zum Gebrauch im Winter, Herbst und Frühjahr, wenn das Kind für gewöhnlich wegen der Kälte eine Mütze trägt. Normal müßte dann ein etwas größerer Helm gekauft werden, der zu der Jahreszeit verwendet werden kann, in der das Kind eine Mütze oder Ohrenklappen trägt.The known children's helmets are poorly suited for use in winter, autumn and spring, when the child usually wears a hat because of the cold. Normally, a slightly larger helmet would have to be bought, which can be used at the time of year when the child is wearing a hat or ear flaps.

Ziel der vorliegenden Erfindung ist die Erzeugung eines Helms, der ohne Schwierigkeiten das ganze Jahr über verwendet werden kann.The aim of the present invention is to produce a helmet which can be used all year round without difficulty.

Dies wird erzielt mit Hilfe eines Helms, dessen kennzeichnende Merkmale aus Anspruch 1 hervorgehen. Weitere Merkmale der Erfindung sind aus den übrigen abhängigen Ansprüchen ersichtlich.This is achieved with the aid of a helmet, the characteristic features of which emerge from claim 1. Further features of the invention can be seen from the remaining dependent claims.

Nachstehend wird die Erfindung anhand der Zeichnungen näher beschrieben, in denen

  • Figur 1 den Helm ohne Mütze zeigt.
  • Figur 2 eine Mütze zeigt, die zu dem in Figur 1 gezeigten Helm verwendet werden kann.
  • Figur 3 die in den Helm eingesetzte Mütze in Rückansicht zeigt.
  • Figur 4 die in den Helm eingesetzte Mütze in Stirnansicht zeigt.
The invention is described in more detail below with reference to the drawings, in which
  • Figure 1 shows the helmet without a cap.
  • Figure 2 shows a cap that can be used with the helmet shown in Figure 1.
  • Figure 3 shows the cap inserted into the helmet in rear view.
  • Figure 4 shows the cap inserted into the helmet in a front view.

Der Helm besteht aus einer oberen Schale 10 und einer unteren Schale 11, die aus Duroplast hergestellt sein können. Ins Innere der oberen Schale 10 ist eine innere Schale 1 eingesetzt, die aus einem stoßabsorbierenden Material besteht und die Kopfform eines Kindes aufweist. Die untere Kunststoffschale 11 deckt das Ohr und den unteren Teil des Kopfes, während das stoßabsorbierende Material 1 über das Ohr reicht, so daß das Kind gut hören kann und gleichzeitig der ganze Kopf der kleinsten Kinder geschützt ist.The helmet consists of an upper shell 10 and a lower shell 11, which can be made of thermoset. Inside the upper shell 10, an inner shell 1 is inserted, which consists of a shock-absorbing material and has the shape of a child's head. The lower one Plastic shell 11 covers the ear and the lower part of the head, while the shock-absorbing material 1 extends over the ear so that the child can hear well and at the same time the whole head of the smallest children is protected.

Die in Figur 2 gezeigte, zur Verwendung mit dem Helm geeignete Mütze weist eine innere Kontur auf, die dem inneren Helm 1 entspricht. Dem inneren Helm folgend reicht die Mütze innen mit einem Ohrenklappenteil 4 nach unten.The cap shown in FIG. 2, suitable for use with the helmet, has an inner contour that corresponds to the inner helmet 1. Following the inner helmet, the cap extends downwards with an ear flap part 4.

Die Mütze folgt den Konturlinien 9, 6 bis zum vorderen Teil des unteren Helmteils 11 und geht dann in den unteren Rand der Ohrenklappen 4 über und folgt dann der Konturlinie 7 bis zum rückwärtigen Teil der unteren Schale 11, und bildet auf diese Weise auch einen Schutz für den Nacken des Kindes. Die Ohrenklappen 4 füllen den leeren Raum 5 zwischen der harten Schale 11 und dem Ohr aus. Die Mütze bewirkt daher auch, indem sie dicht am Kinderkopf anliegt, daß bei starker Drehung des Helms Schnittwunden an Hals und Seite des Kindes vermieden werden.The hat follows the contour lines 9, 6 to the front part of the lower helmet part 11 and then merges into the lower edge of the ear flaps 4 and then follows the contour line 7 to the rear part of the lower shell 11, and in this way also forms a protection for the child's neck. The ear flaps 4 fill the empty space 5 between the hard shell 11 and the ear. The cap therefore also works by being close to the child's head, so that cuts to the neck and side of the child are avoided if the helmet is turned strongly.

Die Ohrenklappen sind mit einem expandierten selbstaufbauenden oder wattierten Material gefüllt. Beim Ohr kann das Material, das in den Ohrenklappen 4 liegt, perforiert sein, um Geräusche durch den Ohrenteil durchzulassen.The ear flaps are filled with an expanded self-building or padded material. In the case of the ear, the material that lies in the ear flaps 4 can be perforated in order to allow noise to pass through the ear part.

Die Ohrenklappen können dann entweder lose dazwischen, gegen die innere Schale 1 liegen oder mit Klettverschluß an dieser befestigt sein.The ear flaps can then either lie loosely in between, lie against the inner shell 1 or be fastened to this with a Velcro fastener.

Wenn der Helm ohne Ohrenklappen verwendet wird, wird die Mütze durch ausfüllende Kissen entsprechend der Dicke der Mütze 3 ersetzt.If the helmet is used without ear flaps, the hat is replaced by filling cushions corresponding to the thickness of the hat 3.

Auf diese Weise wurde ein Helm erzielt, der zu jeder Jahreszeit verwendet werden kann und einen höchstmöglichen Schutz gewährt.In this way, a helmet was achieved that can be used in every season and provides the highest possible protection.

Die obere harte Schale 10 kann mit Lüftungen durch die innere Schale 1 und nach oben durch Spalten, wie in Figur 1 bzw. Figur 4 angedeutet ist, versehen sein.The upper hard shell 10 can be provided with vents through the inner shell 1 and upwards through gaps, as indicated in FIG. 1 or FIG. 4.
