[0017] To make the technical solutions of the present invention clearer, the present invention will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments.

[0018] Embodiment 1

[0019] As Figure 1 shown, a helmet with nose bridge protection includes an outer shell 11, the outer shell 11 is in a common arc shape to better protect the user, and an inner layer 23 is connected to the inner side of the outer shell 11, and the inner layer 23 has a space for accommodating the user's head.

[0020] A brim 12 is connected to the front section of the outer shell 11.

[0021] Among them, the outer shell 11 is made of ABS material. ABS plastic is a terpolymer of three monomers: acrylonitrile (A), butadiene (B), and styrene (S). The relative contents of the three monomers can vary arbitrarily to form various resins. It is a "tough, hard, and rigid" material with easily available raw materials, good comprehensive performance, low price, and wide applications; the inner layer 23 is made of EPS material, that is, EPS foam material, which is an efficient thermal insulation material with characteristics such as light weight, high efficiency, and environmental protection. In this application, the outer shell 11 and the inner layer 23 are integrally formed, and the connection is more compact.

[0022] As Figure 4 shown, a spacer cavity 28 is provided between the outer shell 11 and the inner layer 23. A protective sheet can be placed in the spacer cavity 28 to further improve the use strength of the outer shell 11 and enhance safety.

[0023] At the same time, a top cover 13 is provided on the outer surface of the outer shell 11. The top cover 13 is arc-shaped and is embedded in the outer surface of the outer shell 11. A through ventilation port is provided on the circumferential side of the connection between the outer shell 11 and the top cover 13. To a certain extent, the top cover 13 will affect the sliding speed of the helmet on the ground, thereby enhancing the safety of the helmet.

[0024] During the use of the helmet, due to accidental activities, it may slide forward along the user's head. The inner side of the brim 12 at the front of the helmet is likely to come into contact with the user's nose bridge. In this application, a nose bridge groove 22 is provided on the lower side of the inner layer 23. When the helmet slides, the nose bridge groove 22 is used to accommodate the user's nose bridge. By contacting the inner side of the brim 12, that is, the inner walls at both ends of the nose bridge groove 22, with both sides of the user's face, the nose bridge can be protected from injury.

[0025] As Figure 2 shown, further, a deformation area 24 is provided at the nose bridge groove 22 of the inner layer 23. Both the deformation area 24 and the inner layer 23 are made of EPS foam material, but the density of the EPS material in the deformation area 24 is different from that of the EPS material in the inner layer 23. The density of the deformation area 24 is less than that of the inner layer 23. After an accident occurs, the deformation area 24 is prone to collapse, thereby wrapping the user's nose bridge and reducing the damage caused by secondary impacts.

[0026] There is also a dividing line 21 between the deformation area 24 and the inner layer 23. The dividing line 21 is the weak connection part between the two. When the impact is too large, the deformation area 24 and the inner layer 23 can be separated to reduce secondary impacts.

[0027] Further, a silica gel pad can be connected to the nose bridge groove 22. The silica gel pad is flexible and will deform to fit the nose bridge after being impacted, protecting the nose bridge.

[0028] As Figure 3 shown, at the same time, a groove 27 is provided on the inner wall of the inner layer 23. The groove 27 and the nose bridge groove 22 are located on both sides of the inner layer 22 of the helmet respectively. The nose bridge groove 22 is located at the front section, while the groove 27 is located at the rear section. When the helmet moves, the groove 27 contacts the user's back of the head, slowing down the continued forward sliding of the helmet and protecting the user.

[0029] Moreover, a number of support protrusions 26 are provided on the top of the inner layer 23. The support protrusions 26 contact the user's head top. The support protrusions 26 are arranged at intervals, and through holes are provided at the intervals of the support protrusions 26 on the inner layer 23 to increase air permeability and provide a better wearing experience.

[0030] The above-described embodiments only represent several implementation manners of the present invention. The description is relatively specific and detailed, but it should not be construed as a limitation on the scope of the patent of the present invention. It should be noted that for those of ordinary skill in the art, without departing from the concept of the present invention, several deformations and improvements can still be made, and these all belong to the protection scope of the present invention. Therefore, the protection scope of the patent of the present invention should be subject to the appended claims.
