Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model belongs to the technical field of safety helmets, and in particular relates to an external recorder installed on a safety helmet. Background Art

[0002] Safety helmets are hats that protect people's heads from falling objects and other specific factors. Safety helmets are composed of a helmet shell, a hat lining, a chin strap and accessories. The color of the safety helmet is selected according to the department, the workplace and the environment. The existing safety helmets have a relatively simple function, and the working environment when the safety helmet is used is usually more complicated. People cannot better observe the complex environment around them when working, which increases the danger of certain jobs.

[0003] Therefore, in the prior art, a safety helmet with a recording function has appeared, which can record and detect the working environment and improve the safety of work. A high-definition intelligent safety helmet recorder with the publication number "CN221044347U" includes a safety helmet and a smart recorder. An installation cabin for installing the smart recorder is provided on the top of the safety helmet, and the smart recorder is installed in the safety helmet.

[0004] For the above-mentioned high-definition smart helmet-type recorder, a smart recorder is used as the recording device of the helmet. While the smart recorder can shoot the working environment, it can also improve the sensor to monitor the progress of the external environment, and at the same time control the covering structure to protect the wearer and the recorder lens. However, it still has the following obvious defects during use: Although the smart recorder is used as the recording device of the helmet, the main purpose of this helmet is to protect the head, and the recording function is only additional. This means that the performance and function of the recorder may be limited by the design of the helmet itself. As a part of the helmet, the position and installation method of the smart recorder may limit the user's operation and viewing angle, and the position and layout may not be reasonable, affecting the convenience of user operation.
