Abstract: A visor mechanism for a safety helmet, in particular for emergency services, includes a visor, which is slidably mounted relative to an outer shell of the safety helmet in order to cover a front region of the safety helmet, and a visor adjuster, which is coupled to the visor so that the visor can be slid by a sliding actuation of the visor adjuster. The visor mechanism has a locking assembly coupled to the visor and the visor adjuster, which locking assembly, when locked, blocks the sliding of the visor, and which locking assembly (6), when released, allows the visor to slide. The locking assembly can be released by a release actuation of the visor adjuster. A safety helmet may include a visor mechanism of this type.

Abstract: A football helmet assembly includes a football helmet that is wearable on a user's head. An air bladder is positioned inside of the football helmet and the air bladder is inflatable with air to cushion the user's head against impact energy. An air pump is integrated into the football helmet to inflate the air bladder when the air pump is manipulated. A plurality of biasing units is each coupled between the football helmet and the air bladder to bias the air bladder away from the football helmet. A visor is movably integrated into the football helmet. The visor is positionable in stored position or a deployed position to cover the user's eyes. Furthermore, the visor is tinted to reduce intensity of light passing through the visor.

Abstract: Disclosed is a safety helmet having an outer shell, having a front opening, coupled with an inner shell made of shock absorption material, an anti-dazzle visor constrained to the outer shell and movable between a position of engagement and a position of disengagement with the front opening, and an operating portion of the anti-dazzle visor, integral with this latter, and controlled, through a motion transmission cable, by a control slider coupled to a related guide fastened to the outer shell. The control slider is translatable manually between an inactive position and an active position in which the anti-dazzle visor is arranged in a position of engagement. Advantageously, the motion transmission cable has one end integral with the outer she and the other end integral with the control slider, and engages with a drive constrained to the operating portion of the anti-dazzle visor, for movement of this latter.

Abstract: Protective helmet of the type comprising a first outer visor to intercept the viewing aperture of the helmet mounted rotatably on said helmet, a second visor mounted, inside said first outer visor, rotatably on the cap of the helmet, and a device for actuation and mounting of said second visor on said cap, said second visor including a shielding portion and two ends at the sides of said shielding portion and being at least partly elastically deformable. The inner visor comprises, at least at one side end thereof, a fork and, at or in proximity of one or other of the side ends thereof, at least one externally projecting tooth. Correspondingly, said device for actuation and mounting comprises at least one pin for engaging, directly or indirectly, with said fork and at least one circular guide inside which said projecting tooth of said second visor is removably coupled in a sliding manner, said at least one pin and said at least one circular guide being integral and/or integrated with said cap.

Abstract: A safety helmet includes a cap equipped with at least one visor, which is hinged to the sides of the front opening of the cap itself and can be rotated between a position of interception of the front opening and a raised position with respect to the opening. A shielding element is also hinged to the sides of the front opening of the cap and is rotatable both with respect to the cap and with respect to the visor. The relative rotary displacement of the shielding element with respect to the visor, and vice versa, is limited at a predefined angular interval, in both of the directions of rotation.

Abstract: The invention provides a shield structure which is compatible for a plurality of helmets in spite that an auxiliary shield mounting mechanism has a comparatively simple structure, is less expensive, and provides a good appearance as a whole. According to one aspect of the invention, each of left and right auxiliary shield mounting mechanisms which are disposed on a main shield includes an inner auxiliary shield mounting portion and outer auxiliary shield mounting portion in common.

Abstract: There is provided a removable optical assembly for a helmet. The removable optical assembly includes an optical device retention system and an optical device attachment assembly. The optical device retention system is adapted to couple to the helmet and has an optical device receiving portion. The optical device attachment assembly has a latching mechanism. The latching mechanism is adapted to releasably latch the optical device attachment assembly to the optical device receiving portion. The optical device retention system further has a deflection flange adjacent the optical device receiving portion for deflecting extraneous elements over the optical device receiving portion and the latching mechanism.

Abstract: A helmet is particularly well suited for cold-weather use. The helmet includes a jaw shield that is detachable from a head portion. A breathing mask connects to the jaw shield via a mask adjustment mechanism that selectively axially moves the breathing mask toward and away from an inner surface of the jaw shield to precisely and accurately position the breathing mask against the nose and mouth of the helmet's wearer. A spring-loaded quick-release tinted shield is controlled by a lever that selectively raises and lowers the tinted shield. An eye shield pivotally connects to the helmet and is disposed in front of the tinted shield. An eye shield heating system on the eye shield electrically connects to the head portion of the helmet to provide electric power to the heating system.

Abstract: A safety helmet combined with a visor (3) in a detachable connection, which is formed by holding structure located on both sides at the safety helmet shell (2). Wear properties are improved by the holding structure having rigid coupling hooks (10), which are connected to the visor (3), catch openings (11) receiving the coupling hooks (10), and hinges. A visor structure (13) that can be pivoted over the visor (3) is fastened to the hinges (12); and the detachable connection is designed such that the visor structure (13) is connected to the visor (3) in one assembly unit with it when the visor (3) is removed from the safety helmet (1).

Abstract: Protective helmet includes an outer shell adapted to protect a user's head. A connecting element is connected to the outer shell. At least a first shield is pivotally mounted to one of a journal and the outer shell. At least a second shield is pivotally mounted to the connecting element. Each of the first and second shields pivot with respect to the outer shell.

Abstract: Protective helmet (1) of the type constituted by an outer shell (100) adapted to protect a user's head and having at least two protective shields that are rotationally mobile with respect to the shell (100), characterized in that a first shield (11) is rotationally journalled on the shell (100), whereas a second shield is rotationally journalled on an intermediary connecting element attached to the shell (100).

Abstract: A jaw piece is attachable to a base edge of the helmet. The jaw piece and a portion of the base edge of the helmet define a user viewing window. A first face shield is pivotable between an open position and a closed position extending across the viewing window. A seal is provided to engage with a perimeter of the viewing window when the first face shield is in the closed position. The attaching assembly for attaching the first face shield comprises a helmet cam having first helmet cam surfaces configured to releasably attach the first face shield to the protective helmet system and second helmet cam surfaces configured to releasably attach a second face shield to the protective helmet. The attaching assembly generates a first biasing force to bias the seal toward the perimeter of the viewing window when the first face shield is in the closed position.

Abstract: A protective helmet of the type with an external shell and at least two protective shields, a first shield and a second shield, each pivotable with respect to the shell between two positions, i.e., between a low active position of use and a high active position of non-use, wherein the first shield is articulated with respect to the shell around a first pivot axis, while the second shield is articulated with respect to the shell around a second pivot axis, with the transverse pivot axis of the first shield differing from the transverse pivot axis of the second shield.
