Benefits of technology

The present invention provides a universal anti-collision structure of safety helmet with enhanced structural strength and comfortable fit. The helmet has an elastic carrier body with multiple walls forming well-shaped structure sections with geometrical configurations. The elastic carrier body can flexibly deform to different head configurations and enhance the comfortableness and snugness in wear. The filling body is bonded with the shell body and elastic carrier body to form an integrated structure, improving the manufacturing process and distributively transmitting impact force. The elastic carrier body can flexibly deform to different sizes of the wearer's head and enhance the snugness of the helmet attachment. The helmet has an air chamber structure that serves as a flexible sucker and cushioning and absorb external impact force. The elastic structure body is formed with multiple assembling sections and pivotal connection sections and bonded with the shell body and filling body to form an integrated form, achieving multilayered structure and universal cushioning and external impact force absorption and transmission effects.

Problems solved by technology

With respect to the structural property and application of the thin layer of lining, it is troublesome to additionally dispose the lining in the safety helmet because the number of the assembling steps is increased.
Moreover, the material property of the thin layer of lining leads to that the comfortableness of a helmet wearer can be hardly effectively enhanced and the mugginess of the wearer in long-term wear cannot be reduced.
This obviously leads to increase of the manufacturing cost.
Still with respect to the structural form and application of the thin layer of lining of the safety helmet, even though various sizes of conventional helmet products are provided for different wearers, the helmet and the thin layer of lining still cannot truly fully enclose and snugly attach to the wearer's head in accordance with the head configurations or the arched faces of the wearer's head.
That is, even though various sizes or specifications of conventional safety helmets are provided for different wearers, the helmets still fail to completely conform to the three-dimensional head configurations or the arched faces of the wearer's head.
As a result, the helmet can hardly fully enclose the wearer's head and the snugness in wear of the helmet is deteriorated.
Therefore, when an external impact force is applied to the helmet, the protection and security effect provided by the helmet for the wearer's head will be affected.
Also, in practice, some problems existing in the assembling structures of the outer shell body or plastic shell, the inner structure body and the thin layer of lining of the conventional safety helmet.
It is found that the conventional safety helmet structure has some shortcomings that it is troublesome to additionally dispose the lining in the safety helmet because the number of the assembling steps is increased and the comfortableness of the helmet wearer in wear can be hardly enhanced.
In addition, the texture of the conventional helmet fails to elastically conform to different three-dimensional head configurations or arched faces and sizes of the heads of the wearers.
As a result, the helmet can hardly fully enclose the wearer's head and the snugness in wear of the helmet cannot be enhanced.
Therefore, when various external impact forces (normal or lateral) are applied to the helmet, the internal structure body of the helmet can hardly effectively distribute and transmit the impact forces to every part of the entire helmet.

Embodiment Construction

[0036]Please refer to FIGS. 1, 2 and 3. The universal anti-collision structure of safety helmet of the present invention is selectively exemplified with a safety helmet for sport wear. The safety helmet can be a football helmet, a hockey helmet, an engineering helmet, a mountaineering helmet, an equestrianism helmet, a bicycle helmet, a motorcycle helmet, a skiing helmet, a car racing helmet, etc. in a full face form or an open face form. The safety helmet includes a shell body 10, a filling body 30 enclosed in the shell body 10 and an elastic carrier body 40 enclosed in the shell body 10. The shell body 10, the filling body 30 and the elastic carrier body 40 are assembled with each other to form an assembly 100.

[0037]The upper section, upper side, lower section, lower side or bottom section mentioned hereinafter are referred to with the direction of the drawings as the reference direction. In addition, the part directed to the helmet wearer is defined as inner face or inner side, w...

Abstract

A universal anti-collision structure of safety helmet includes a shell body, a filling body and an elastic carrier body enclosed in and assembled with the shell body. The elastic carrier body has multiple walls defining multiple well-shaped structure sections with a geometrical configuration. The peripheral section of each well-shaped structure section is formed with wing sections (protruding toward the center of the well-shaped structure section). Accordingly, the well-shaped structure section is defined with a first section, a second section and a subsidiary section connected between the first and second sections. The filling body is bonded with the shell body and the elastic carrier body to together form an integrated assembly. The elastic carrier body can be flexibly deformed in accordance with different head configurations so as to fully enclose the head, cushion, absorb and transmit the external impact force.

Description

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION1. Field of the Invention[0001]The present invention relates generally to a universal anti-collision structure of safety helmet, and more particularly to a universal anti-collision structure of safety helmet, which employs (cushion foam) filling body connected with a shell body and an elastic carrier body. The elastic carrier body has multiple walls as a skeleton structure. The walls define multiple well-shaped structure sections with a geometrical configuration. The filling body is bonded with the shell body and the elastic carrier body to together form a complex integrated assembly.2. Description of the Related Art[0002]A conventional safety helmet structure includes a plastic shell body and an anti-impact filling body formed of foam material by heating. The plastic shell body tightly encloses and adheres to the foam filling body to form the safety helmet structure.[0003]In the structural form of such kind of safety helmet, the outer plastic shell serves...
