Description

La présente invention concerne un casque de protection comprenant un écran attaché à la coque du casque et une mentonnière attachée à la coque et apte à être relevée par dessus l'écran vers l'arrière de la coque par un mouvement de rotation.The present invention relates to a protective helmet including a screen attached to the helmet shell and a chin strap attached to the shell and capable of being lifted by above the screen towards the rear of the hull by a movement of rotation.

L'invention trouvera particulièrement son application dans le domaine des accessoires de sécurité pour motocyclisme ou automobilisme.The invention will find its application particularly in safety accessories for motorcycling or motoring.

Toute autre application, notamment dans le domaine du sport, est également visée par l'invention.Any other application, in particular in the field of sport, is also targeted by the invention.

Les casques de protection se présentent sous diverses formes suivant le degré de protection et la configuration souhaitée par l'utilisateur. On connaít notamment des casques intégrant un écran et une mentonnière. La mentonnière est dans certains cas fixe et solidaire par rapport à la coque ; on appelle alors ces casques des casques intégraux.Protective helmets come in a variety of forms depending on the degree of protection and configuration desired by the user. We especially know helmets incorporating a screen and a chin strap. The chin rest is in certain cases fixed and integral with the shell; we then call these helmets full-face helmets.

Dans un autre cas, il peut être intéressant que la mentonnière soit relevable par rapport à la coque notamment pour une conduite sous de fortes chaleurs.In another case, it may be interesting that the chin strap can be lifted relative to the shell in particular for driving in hot weather.

L'invention s'inscrit dans le cadre de ces casques permettant un relèvement de la mentonnière par dessus l'écran.The invention is part of these helmets allowing the chin strap to be raised above the screen.

Les casques de protection actuels répondant à ce principe ne donnent pas toute satisfaction.Current protective helmets meeting this principle are not entirely satisfactory.

On connaít en premier lieu des casques avec une mentonnière et un écran relevables suivant des axes concentriques. Pour des nécessités d'étanchéité, on place un joint, préférentiellement fixé sur la mentonnière, et apte à s'appuyer sur la partie inférieure de l'écran lorsque la mentonnière et l'écran sont en position abaissée.We first know helmets with a chin rest and a screen which can be lifted along concentric axes. For sealing requirements, a seal is placed, preferably fixed on the chin rest, and suitable for lean on the lower part of the screen when the chin strap and screen are in the lowered position.

Lorsque la mentonnière et l'écran sont concentriques et que l'on souhaite relever la mentonnière, on constate un important frottement du joint sur toute la superficie de l'écran. Ce frottement endommage rapidement l'écran ce qui diminue la visibilité du conducteur. De plus, l'éventuelle présence d'éléments tels que des poussières augmente encore les rayures sur l'écran.When the chin rest and the screen are concentric and we wish to raise the chin rest, we note an important friction of the joint over the entire surface of the screen. This friction quickly damages the screen which decreases the driver visibility. In addition, the possible presence elements such as dust further increases scratches on the screen.

En conséquence, la durée de vie des écrans est actuellement limitée et un remplacement régulier doit être effectué.As a result, the lifespan of displays is currently limited and regular replacement should be made.

Par ailleurs, pour ne pas endommager trop fortement et trop rapidement l'écran, on est amené à utiliser des joints peu résistants car très souples. Cela nuit à une bonne étanchéité et limite également la durée de vie des joints.Furthermore, in order not to damage too strongly and too much quickly the screen, we are led to use little seals resistant because very flexible. This affects a good seal and also limits the life of the seals.

Par ailleurs, lorsque l'utilisateur, en position de repos, porte le casque en mains au niveau de la mentonnière, les joints actuellement utilisés sont très vite endommagés car ne sont pas prévus pour supporter des pressions ou les frottements occasionnés par les mains.Furthermore, when the user, in the rest position, wear the helmet in hand at the chin strap, seals currently used are quickly damaged because they do not are not designed to withstand pressure or friction caused by the hands.

Les casques dotés de mentonnière et d'écran concentriques ont par ailleurs l'inconvénient d'être peu pratique à utiliser lorsqu'on désire relever la mentonnière ou l'écran. En effet, un appui important s'effectue entre la mentonnière et l'écran par le biais du joint. Comme la mentonnière et l'écran suivent la même trajectoire de relèvement, il faut combattre la résistance d'adhérence du joint pour relever l'un des éléments.Helmets with concentric chin and visor have the disadvantage of being inconvenient to use when you want to raise the chin strap or the screen. Indeed, there is a lot of support between the chin rest and the screen through the joint. As the chin rest and the screen follow the same recovery trajectory, we have to fight the adhesion resistance of the joint to raise one of the elements.

En conséquence, les casques avec mentonnière et écran concentriques ne donnent pas entière satisfaction tant au niveau de leur coût que de leur utilisation.As a result, helmets with chin straps and visors concentric are not entirely satisfactory level of their cost than their use.

On connaít des systèmes plus perfectionnés permettant des mouvements complexes de la mentonnière.We know more sophisticated systems allowing complex chin movements.

Dans ce cadre, on peut citer les demandes de brevet suivantes :

  • FR-A-2.595.212 qui montre un casque de protection avec une coque sur laquelle est articulée une partie rabattable autour d'un axe 8 mais qui ne divulgue pas les moyens de relèvement de la présente invention.
  • DE-A-2.846.636 qui divulgue un casque dans lequel la mentonnière n'est relevable qu'avec la visière.
  • EP-A-0.797.935 qui concerne un casque intégral notamment pour motocycliste comprenant un dispositif pour ouvrir et fermer la mentonnière.
  • EP-A-0.258.552 qui concerne un casque intégral équipé d'une pièce jugulaire mobile et animée de mouvements de translation et de rotation.
  • EP-A-0.334.773 qui présente un casque de protection sans jugulaire et système d'amortissement des mouvements du dispositif d'assujettissement des casques sans jugulaire.
In this context, we can cite the following patent applications:
  • FR-A-2.595.212 which shows a protective helmet with a shell on which a hinged part is articulated around an axis 8 but which does not disclose the lifting means of the present invention.
  • DE-A-2,846,636 which discloses a helmet in which the chin rest can only be lifted with the visor.
  • EP-A-0.797.935 which relates to an integral helmet in particular for motorcyclist comprising a device for opening and closing the chin rest.
  • EP-A-0,258,552 which relates to an integral helmet equipped with a movable chin strap and animated with translational and rotational movements.
  • EP-A-0.334.773 which presents a protective helmet without chinstrap and system for damping the movements of the device for securing helmets without chinstrap.

Selon ces trois derniers documents, un mouvement combiné de translation et de rotation est effectué pour relever la mentonnière.According to these last three documents, a combined movement of translation and rotation is performed to raise the chin rest.

Ces systèmes ont d'abord l'inconvénient d'être peu simples et donc d'occasionner un coût de fabrication important. De plus, leur utilisation est peu pratique compte tenu de la complexité des mouvements que doit imprimer l'utilisateur à la mentonnière.These systems first have the disadvantage of being not very simple and therefore to cause a significant manufacturing cost. Of more, their use is impractical given the complexity of the movements that the user must print at the chin rest.

Par ailleurs, ces systèmes ont essentiellement pour objet de permettre un relèvement particulier de la mentonnière notamment pour une application sur le sommet du casque en appui au plus près de la surface de la coque. Ils n'ont donc pas pour objet de limiter voire de supprimer le frottement occasionné par le relèvement de la mentonnière sur l'écran.Furthermore, these systems essentially have for object to allow a particular raising of the chin rest especially for an application on the top of the helmet in support as close as possible to the hull surface. They therefore not intended to limit or even eliminate friction caused by the raising of the chin strap on the screen.

En conséquence, les problèmes d'usure de joints et d'étanchéité tels qu'évoqués pour les casques à mentonnière et écran concentriques se retrouvent pour les casques à mentonnière relevable par mouvement combiné de translation et de rotation.As a result, seal wear problems and of sealing as mentioned for the helmets with chin rests and concentric screen are found for headsets to chin rest liftable by combined translational movement and of rotation.

La présente invention est un casque de protection ayant pour but de remédier aux inconvénients des dispositifs actuels.The present invention is a protective helmet having intended to remedy the drawbacks of the devices current.

Un des premiers objets de l'invention est de diminuer voire supprimer l'usure du joint d'étanchéité lors du relèvement de la mentonnière.One of the first objects of the invention is to reduce or even Eliminate wear of the seal when raising the chin rest.

Pour cela, le casque ici présenté a l'avantage de supprimer tout frottement entre la mentonnière et l'écran.For this, the helmet presented here has the advantage of eliminating any friction between the chin rest and the screen.

Ce faisant, l'invention a également l'avantage de réduire fortement l'usure de l'écran puisque les rayures existant jusqu'à présent par le passage de la mentonnière sur la surface extérieure de l'écran sont supprimées.In doing so, the invention also has the advantage of reducing heavily wear the screen since the existing scratches so far by the passage of the chin strap on the outer surface of the screen are removed.

Un autre but de l'invention est de permettre l'utilisation de joints d'étanchéité plus efficaces. Another object of the invention is to allow the use more effective seals.

Pour ce faire, le casque ici présenté à l'avantage de ne pas limiter le choix du joint selon une nécessité de souplesse pour éviter l'usure de l'écran. On peut donc choisir un joint beaucoup plus rigide qu'actuellement dont la longévité sera plus importante et permettant une meilleure étanchéité.To do this, the helmet presented here has the advantage of not not limit the choice of seal according to a need for flexibility to prevent wear on the screen. So we can choose a joint much more rigid than at present whose longevity will be larger and allowing better sealing.

De plus, on pourra utiliser des joints tels que des joints en mousse revêtus de cuir synthétique ou naturel résistants, particulièrement étanches et permettant un contact agréable au toucher notamment lorsque l'utilisateur porte le casque à la main.In addition, seals such as seals may be used foam covered with resistant synthetic or natural leather, particularly waterproof and allowing pleasant contact with especially when the user is wearing the helmet hand.

Un autre objet de l'invention est de permettre un meilleur ajustement du joint d'étanchéité sur l'écran lorsque la mentonnière et l'écran sont en position abaissée.Another object of the invention is to allow better adjustment of the seal on the screen when the chin strap and screen are in the lowered position.

Pour ce faire, compte tenu qu'aucun frottement n'est occasionné lors du relèvement de la mentonnière, le casque pourra être réalisé de façon à exercer un appui important du joint sur la partie basse de l'écran en position abaissée.To do this, given that no friction is caused when the chin strap is raised, the helmet could be carried out in such a way as to exert significant support from the attached to the lower part of the screen in the lowered position.

Par ailleurs, la présente invention permet un relèvement de la mentonnière jusqu'à l'arrière de la coque. Contrairement aux dispositifs actuels utilisant une combinaison d'un mouvement de rotation et de translation, il est ici possible de relever complètement la mentonnière et de la passer vers l'arrière du casque. De cette façon, la conduite mentonnière relevée présente une moins grande prise au vent et possède un aspect esthétique supplémentaire.Furthermore, the present invention allows an increase in the chin strap to the back of the hull. In contrary to current devices using a combination of a rotational and translational movement, here it is possible raise the chin bar completely and pass it towards the back of the helmet. In this way, the chin driving raised has less wind resistance and has a additional aesthetic appearance.

D'autres buts et avantages apparaítront au cours de la description qui va suivre qui n'est cependant donnée qu'à titre indicatif.Other goals and advantages will emerge during the description which follows which is however only given indicative title.

La présente invention concerne un casque de protection , notamment utilisable en motocyclisme, comprenant :

  • un écran attaché à la coque du casque
  • une mentonnière attachée à la coque et apte à être relevée par dessus l'écran vers l'arrière de la coque par un mouvement de rotation.
The present invention relates to a protective helmet, in particular usable in motorcycling, comprising:
  • a screen attached to the helmet shell
  • a chin strap attached to the shell and able to be raised over the screen towards the rear of the shell by a rotational movement.

Selon l'invention, la mentonnière possède un axe de rotation décalé vers le haut par rapport à l'axe de l'écran pour un relèvement de la mentonnière sans frottement sur l'écran.According to the invention, the chin rest has an axis of rotation shifted upwards relative to the screen axis for raising the chin strap without friction on the screen.

L'écran est apte à être relevé par rapport à la coque par un mouvement de rotation suivant une trajectoire intérieure à celle de la mentonnière de par le décalage de leurs axes de rotation.The screen is capable of being raised relative to the shell by a rotational movement following an interior trajectory at that of the chin rest by the offset of their axes of rotation.

Le casque de protection présente une pièce intermédiaire assurant l'attache de l'écran et de la mentonnière sur la coque et permettant leur mouvement de rotation par des moyens de guidage en rotation.The protective helmet has an intermediate piece ensuring the attachment of the screen and the chin strap on the shell and allowing their rotational movement by means guiding in rotation.

Les moyens de guidage en rotation sont constitués de deux tronçons circulaires et désaxés de guidage coopérant avec un trou formé sur l'écran et un autre trou formé sur la mentonnière.The rotating guide means consist of two circular and offset axis sections cooperating with a hole formed on the screen and another hole formed on the chin rest.

Le tronçon de guidage de l'écran et son trou correspondant ont un plus grand diamètre que le tronçon de guidage de la mentonnière et son trou correspondant.The screen guide section and its corresponding hole have a larger diameter than the guide section of the chin strap and its corresponding hole.

Le tronçon de guidage de l'écran comporte une bordure pour le maintien latéral de l'écran.The screen guide section has a border for lateral support of the screen.

La pièce intermédiaire présente un alésage pour le passage d'une vis à fixer dans la coque, la tête de vis s'appuyant sur la face extérieure de la mentonnière.The intermediate part has a bore for the passage a screw to be fixed in the shell, the screw head resting on the outside of the chin rest.

La pièce intermédiaire comporte un ergot coopérant avec un trou oblong dans l'écran pour limiter le déplacement angulaire de celui-ci.The intermediate piece comprises a lug cooperating with a oblong hole in the screen to limit angular displacement of it.

La mentonnière comporte un joint s'appliquant sur la partie basse de l'écran lorsque la mentonnière est abaissée, ledit joint étant en mousse revêtue de cuir.The chin strap has a seal that applies to the part bottom of the screen when the chin rest is lowered, said joint being in foam covered with leather.

La mentonnière comporte sur sa face intérieure et au dessus de chaque trou, un relief apte à soulever la mentonnière lors de son relèvement, au passage en vis à vis de la bordure.The chin strap has on its inside and above of each hole, a relief capable of lifting the chin guard during of its raising, when passing opposite the border.

Les dessins ci-joints sont donnés à titre d'exemple indicatif et non limitatif. Ils représentent un mode de réalisation selon l'invention. Ils permettront de comprendre aisément l'invention.The attached drawings are given by way of example indicative and not limiting. They represent a mode of embodiment according to the invention. They will help to understand easily the invention.

La figure 1 illustre une vue latérale du casque de protection selon l'invention.Figure 1 illustrates a side view of the helmet. protection according to the invention.

La figure 2 est une vue en perspective éclatée permettant la visualisation de la coopération des éléments constitutifs du casque selon l'invention.Figure 2 is an exploded perspective view for the visualization of the cooperation of the constituent elements of the helmet according to the invention.

Les figures 3 et 4 présentent un mode de réalisation dans lequel un relief est formé.Figures 3 and 4 show an embodiment in which a relief is formed.

L'écran 3 n'est pas présenté en figure 4.Screen 3 is not shown in Figure 4.

Le casque de protection 1 ici présenté comporte une coque 2 tel qu'illustré aux figures 1 et 2.The protective helmet 1 shown here has a shell 2 as illustrated in Figures 1 and 2.

La coque 2 sera constituée de façon courante et assure la grande partie de la protection de la tête de l'utilisateur. Le plus souvent, la coque 2 est d'une forme quasi sphérique et permet d'attacher les autres éléments constitutifs du casque.The shell 2 will be made up in a current manner and ensures the much of the user's head protection. The more often, the shell 2 is of an almost spherical shape and used to attach the other components of the helmet.

Parmi ces éléments, on trouve tout d'abord un écran 3. L'écran permet la visibilité extérieure pour le conducteur tout en protégeant sa vision des éléments perturbateurs extérieurs tel que le vent.Among these elements, there is first of all a screen 3. Screen allows outside visibility for the driver while protecting his vision from disruptive elements like the wind.

L'écran 3 se fixe de part et d'autre de la coque 2 tel que représenté en figure 2. Cette fixation s'effectue selon un axe d'accrochage 5 présenté aux figures 1 et 2 et traversant de part en part la coque 2.The screen 3 is fixed on either side of the shell 2 as as shown in FIG. 2. This fixing is carried out according to a fastening axis 5 presented in FIGS. 1 and 2 and passing through right through the hull 2.

La forme de l'écran 3 n'est pas limitée mais le plus souvent adaptée à celle de la coque 2 pour en assurer la continuité sur le devant du casque 1.The shape of the screen 3 is not limited but the most often adapted to that of hull 2 to ensure its continuity on the front of the helmet 1.

Dans un mode particulier de réalisation, l'écran 3 est relevable par rapport à la coque 2. La possibilité de relèvement de l'écran 3 est par exemple illustrée en figure 1 selon la flèche B. L'axe d'attache 5 de l'écran 3 est alors également un axe de rotation.In a particular embodiment, the screen 3 is liftable from the hull 2. The possibility of raising the screen 3 is for example illustrated in FIG. 1 according to arrow B. The attachment axis 5 of screen 3 is then also an axis of rotation.

Pour renforcer la rigidité du casque 1 et augmenter la sécurité de l'utilisateur au niveau du menton, les casques comprennent souvent une mentonnière.To strengthen the rigidity of the helmet 1 and increase the user safety at chin level, helmets often include a chin rest.

La mentonnière 4 selon l'invention telle qu'illustrée en figure 1 est relevable par rapport à la coque 2 sur laquelle elle est attachée.The chinrest 4 according to the invention as illustrated in Figure 1 is liftable relative to the shell 2 on which she is attached.

Tel qu'illustré en figure 1, la mentonnière 4 peut se situer en position abaissée et sa partie supérieure s'appliquer sur la partie inférieure de l'écran 3. La mentonnière 4 peut également être relevée et même basculée intégralement vers l'arrière de la coque 2 dans une autre position d'utilisation.As illustrated in Figure 1, the chin rest 4 can be locate in the lowered position and its upper part apply on the lower part of screen 3. The chinrest 4 can also be raised and even tilted fully back of the hull 2 in another position of use.

Préférentiellement, la mentonnière 4 comporte un joint d'étanchéité 7 également présenté en figure 1. Ce joint 7 s'applique lorsque l'écran 3 est en position abaissée sur sa partie basse. Le joint 7 assure alors l'étanchéité. Selon l'invention, l'axe 5 de l'écran 3 et l'axe 6 de la mentonnière 4 sont décalés. Plus précisément, l'axe 6 est décalé vers le haut relativement à l'axe 5.Preferably, the chin rest 4 has a seal 7 also shown in Figure 1. This seal 7 applies when the screen 3 is in the lowered position on its lower part. The seal 7 then seals. According to the invention, axis 5 of the screen 3 and axis 6 of the chin rest 4 are offset. More precisely, axis 6 is shifted towards the high relative to axis 5.

De cette façon, on réalise un relèvement de la mentonnière 4 sans frottement sur l'écran 3.In this way, an increase in the chin strap 4 without friction on the screen 3.

La trajectoire de la mentonnière 4 est illustrée en figure 4 et s'effectue bien au dessus de l'écran 3 et de sa trajectoire de relèvement.The trajectory of the chin rest 4 is illustrated in Figure 4 and takes place well above screen 3 and its recovery trajectory.

Dans un mode particulier de réalisation, le casque de protection 1 comprend une pièce intermédiaire 8 assurant l'attache de l'écran 3 et de la mentonnière 4 sur la coque 2. La pièce intermédiaire 8 a également pour fonction de permettre le mouvement de rotation de l'écran 3 et de la mentonnière 4 et comporte pour ce faire des moyens de guidage en rotation. In a particular embodiment, the helmet protection 1 includes an intermediate piece 8 ensuring the attachment of the screen 3 and the chin strap 4 to the shell 2. The intermediate part 8 also has the function of allow the rotation movement of the screen 3 and the chin rest 4 and for this purpose includes guide means in rotation.

Tel que cela ressort de la figure 2, on utilisera une pièce intermédiaire 8 pour chaque côté de la coque 2.As shown in Figure 2, we will use a intermediate piece 8 for each side of the shell 2.

Les moyens de guidage en rotation pourront être constitués de différentes manières et notamment être constitués de deux tronçons 9, 10. Ces tronçons 9, 10, tels qu'illustrés en figure 2, sont circulaires et désaxés l'un de l'autre. On réalise ainsi le décalage des axes 5 et 6 de l'écran et de la mentonnière 4.The means for guiding in rotation may be constituted in different ways and in particular to be consisting of two sections 9, 10. These sections 9, 10, such that illustrated in figure 2, are circular and offset one of the other. We thus realize the offset of axes 5 and 6 of screen and chin strap 4.

Pour réaliser le mouvement de rotation de l'écran 3 et de la mentonnière 4, on réalisera sur ces deux éléments deux trous respectivement 11 et 12 coopérant avec les tronçons respectivement 9 et 10.To perform the rotation movement of the screen 3 and chinrest 4, we will realize on these two elements two holes 11 and 12 respectively cooperating with the sections 9 and 10 respectively.

Dans un mode particulier de réalisation, on réalisera un tronçon 9 de plus grand diamètre par rapport au tronçon 10. Les diamètres des trous 11 et 12 formés sur l'écran et la mentonnière seront choisis en conséquence.In a particular embodiment, a section 9 of larger diameter with respect to section 10. The diameters of the holes 11 and 12 formed on the screen and the chin rests will be chosen accordingly.

Tel que cela est illustré en figure 2, ce mode de réalisation permet un montage tout d'abord de l'écran sur la coque 2 puis un montage de la mentonnière 4. Celle-ci peut s'appliquer sur le plat du tronçon 9 par sa face intérieure.As illustrated in Figure 2, this mode of realization allows first mounting of the screen on the shell 2 then an assembly of the chin rest 4. This can apply on the flat of the section 9 by its inner face.

Pour assurer un maintien efficace de l'écran 3 au niveau du tronçon 9, celui-ci comportera préférentiellement une bordure 13 pour le maintien latéral de l'écran 3.To ensure effective maintenance of the screen 3 at the level of section 9, this will preferably include a border 13 for lateral retention of the screen 3.

Cette bordure telle qu'illustrée en figure 2 peut n'être que partielle.This border as illustrated in FIG. 2 may not be only partial.

La bordure 13 peut être complétée par une portion du bord du tronçon 10. En effet, le décalage des axes et les dimensions des tronçons peuvent être choisis de façon à ce que la surface du tronçon 10 dépasse de celle du tronçon 9.The border 13 can be completed by a portion of the border of section 10. Indeed, the offset of the axes and the section dimensions can be chosen so that that the area of the section 10 exceeds that of the section 9.

Pour finaliser l'assemblage des éléments et assurer une fixation sur la coque 2, la pièce intermédiaire 8 pourra comporter un alésage 14 pour le passage d'une vis à fixer dans la coque 2. Tel qu'illustré en figure 2, la vis peut traverser successivement le trou 12 formé dans la mentonnière 4, le trou 11 formé dans l'écran 3 et l'alésage 14 de la pièce intermédiaire 8. En fin de montage, la tête de la vis s'appuiera sur la face extérieure 15 de la mentonnière 4. La pièce intermédiaire 8, l'écran 3 et la mentonnière 4 sont alors efficacement attachés sur la coque 2.To finalize the assembly of the elements and ensure attachment to the shell 2, the intermediate part 8 may have a bore 14 for the passage of a screw to be fixed in the shell 2. As illustrated in FIG. 2, the screw can pass through successively the hole 12 formed in the chin strap 4, the hole 11 formed in screen 3 and bore 14 of the part intermediate 8. At the end of assembly, the screw head will rest on the outer face 15 of the chin rest 4. The intermediate piece 8, the screen 3 and the chin rest 4 are then effectively attached to the shell 2.

Dans un mode particulier de réalisation, la pièce intermédiaire 8 comporte également un ergot 16 coopérant avec un trou oblong 17 formé dans l'écran 3. De cette façon, on peut limiter le déplacement angulaire de l'écran 3.In a particular embodiment, the part intermediate 8 also includes a lug 16 cooperating with an oblong hole 17 formed in the screen 3. In this way, we can limit the angular displacement of the screen 3.

De par la trajectoire circulaire décalée de la mentonnière 4 vis à vis de la coque 2 et de l'écran 3, tout frottement du joint 7 sur l'écran 3 est supprimé.Due to the offset circular trajectory of the chin strap 4 opposite the shell 2 and the screen 3, all friction of the seal 7 on the screen 3 is eliminated.

De ce fait, on pourra utiliser une nature de joint 7 dans une gamme de choix beaucoup plus importante. Notamment le joint 7 pourra être beaucoup plus rigide que les joints actuels. Dans un mode particulier de réalisation, il est réalisé en mousse revêtu de cuir synthétique.Therefore, we can use a joint type 7 in a much wider range of choice. Including the joint 7 could be much more rigid than joints current. In a particular embodiment, it is made of foam covered with synthetic leather.

Le montage des éléments constitutifs du casque 1 selon l'invention pourra s'effectuer de la façon suivante.The assembly of the constituent elements of the helmet 1 according to the invention can be carried out as follows.

Dans un premier temps, la pièce intermédiaire 8 est rapportée sur la coque 2. On utilisera une pièce intermédiaire 8 par côté de coque 2.Initially, the intermediate part 8 is attached to hull 2. We will use an intermediate piece 8 per hull side 2.

Il est alors possible d'introduire les trous 11 formés sur l'écran dans les tronçons 9 de chaque pièce intermédiaire 8.It is then possible to introduce the holes 11 formed on the screen in sections 9 of each intermediate piece 8.

La présence d'une bordure 13 assure un maintien latéral de l'écran 3 par rapport à la coque 2.The presence of a border 13 ensures lateral support of screen 3 relative to shell 2.

La mentonnière 4 peut alors être appliquée de chaque côté de la coque 2 et s'appuyer sur les extrémités de l'écran 3. Le trou 12 formé dans la mentonnière coopérera avec le tronçon 10 de la pièce intermédiaire 8.Chinrest 4 can then be applied on each side of the shell 2 and rest on the ends of the screen 3. The hole 12 formed in the chin strap will cooperate with the section 10 of the intermediate piece 8.

Pour finaliser l'attache, une vis pourra être fixée, au travers des différents éléments, dans la matière de la coque 2.To finalize the attachment, a screw may be attached to the through different elements, in the material of the shell 2.

Les figures 3 et 4 présentent un mode de réalisation dans lequel un relief 18 est formé sur la mentonnière 4, au niveau de chacune de ses extrémités.Figures 3 and 4 show an embodiment in which a relief 18 is formed on the chin rest 4, at the level from each of its ends.

La figure 3 schématise l'emplacement du relief 18, au dessus du trou 12 et sur la face intérieure de l'extrémité de la mentonnière (c'est à dire sensiblement au dessus de l'axe de rotation 6).Figure 3 shows schematically the location of the relief 18, at above hole 12 and on the inside of the end of the chin strap (i.e. substantially above the axis 6).

En position abaissée, le relief 18 n'agit pas et la mentonnière 4 s'applique de façon optimale sur la coque 2.In the lowered position, the relief 18 does not act and the chin strap 4 is optimally applied to shell 2.

Lors du relèvement, le relief 18 arrive en vis à vis de la bordure 13 qui constitue une saillie sur la pièce intermédiaire 8. Leur coopération fait s'écarter la mentonnière 4 par rapport à la coque 2 et évite ainsi les rayures ou une trop forte résistance au relevage.During recovery, the relief 18 comes opposite the edge 13 which constitutes a projection on the part intermediary 8. Their cooperation causes the chin guard 4 relative to the shell 2 and thus avoids scratches or too high resistance to lifting.

Le relief 18 peut présenter la forme illustrée en figure 3 (sensiblement oblongue) et, en coupe, à la figure 4. Une pièce en matière plastique avec une face 19 inclinée peut être utilisée.The relief 18 may have the shape illustrated in the figure 3 (substantially oblong) and, in section, in FIG. 4. A plastic part with an inclined face 19 can be used.

Plus précisément, le relief 18 présent sur la face intérieure de la mentonnière 4 peut être intercalé entre la garniture intérieure 20 et le corps rigide 21 de la mentonnière 4.More precisely, the relief 18 present on the face inside of the chin rest 4 can be inserted between the inner lining 20 and the rigid body 21 of the chin rest 4.

Il est ainsi totalement invisible et le glissement de la garniture 20 sur la bordure 13 évite tout coincement au relèvement.It is thus completely invisible and the sliding of the trim 20 on the edge 13 prevents jamming at the recovery.

On réalise ainsi un casque de protection s'utilisant de façon très pratique ayant un joint d'étanchéité de haute qualité et évitant toute usure prématurée de l'écran. Par ailleurs, un relèvement de la mentonnière 4 peut être effectué et ce possiblement jusqu'à la partie arrière de la coque 2 sans la rayer. A protective helmet is thus used which is used very convenient way having a high gasket quality and avoiding premature wear of the screen. Through elsewhere, the chinrest 4 can be raised and possibly up to the rear part of the hull 2 without scratching it.
