Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of emergency rescue equipment technology, and in particular to a simple helmet bracket. Background Technology
[0002] In firefighting operations, fire helmets play a crucial protective role. They must be able to provide reliable protection for firefighters' heads in extremely dangerous and complex environments, preventing head injuries from high temperatures, flames, falling objects, and various impacts.
[0003] With the continuous evolution of firefighting technology, fire helmets have become increasingly integrated, possessing not only a robust outer shell structure but also diverse functional modules such as communication equipment, lighting devices, and respiratory protection aids. However, these added functions have also brought new challenges to their use. For example, the current connection between fire helmets and face masks mostly uses a relatively traditional fixed structure. While this structure ensures a secure connection between the face mask and helmet under normal circumstances, it lacks flexibility.
[0004] In actual firefighting operations, firefighters often need to quickly adjust the status of their masks according to different mission phases. For example, when briefly leaving the high-temperature, dense smoke area to communicate on-site, they need to easily lift the mask upwards at a certain angle while ensuring that the mask does not shake or fall off. Or, when changing oxygen cylinders in an emergency, they need to be able to quickly and easily separate and reposition the mask and helmet with one hand to save valuable time. Traditional fixed connection methods cannot meet these dynamic and complex usage needs, limiting the agility and efficiency of firefighters' movements, and may even distract firefighters at critical moments due to inconvenient operation, endangering their lives.
[0005] In addition, the few existing helmet and face mask connection devices with adjustable functions often have the disadvantage of complex and bulky structure. They not only occupy too much space around the helmet and interfere with the normal use of other functional components, but also are prone to mechanical failure due to their complex design, increasing maintenance costs and difficulties. They are also difficult to be widely adapted to various types of fire helmets and have low versatility.
[0006] In conclusion, the firefighting field urgently needs a new type of helmet bracket that can ensure a stable connection between the face mask and helmet, is simple, compact, easy to operate, and highly adaptable to various fire helmet models, thus helping firefighters to perform their tasks efficiently. Utility Model Content
[0007] The present invention provides a simple helmet bracket that can ensure a stable connection between the face mask and the helmet, and is simple, compact and easy to operate.
[0008] To achieve the above objectives, the embodiments of this utility model adopt the following technical solutions:
[0009] The helmet bracket 1 is fixed to at least one side of the face mask 2 by mounting fasteners 1-8;
[0010] The mounting fastener 1-8 is equipped with a helmet bracket rotating arm 1-2;
[0011] One end of the helmet bracket rotating arm 1-2 is connected to the helmet bracket rotating arm stabilizer 1-6, and the other end is fixed to the fixed end of the helmet bracket telescopic arm 1-1.
[0012] The helmet bracket telescopic arm housing 1-3 has an elastic component 1-4 installed inside, and the free end of the elastic component 1-4 is connected to a metal spring 1-5.
[0013] The simplified helmet bracket provided in this embodiment features a spherical tail for the rotating arm 1-2, which is embedded in a groove of the stabilizing component 1-6. This allows for 360-degree rotation, making it suitable for various helmets. The stabilizing component 1-6 uses an O-ring design to increase damping during angle adjustment. The stabilizing component 1-6 prevents the rotating arm 1-2 from wobbling. The O-ring or similar material can further increase the adjustment damping, thus increasing pressure to prevent the spherical tail of the rotating arm 1-2 from wobbling. This design ensures a stable connection between the visor and helmet while being simple, compact, and easy to operate. Attached Figure Description

[0024] This utility model embodiment provides a simple helmet bracket, such as Figure 1-8As shown, the helmet bracket 1 is fixed to at least one side of the face mask 2 by mounting fasteners 1-8; a helmet bracket rotating arm 1-2 is provided on the mounting fasteners 1-8; one end of the helmet bracket rotating arm 1-2 is connected to the helmet bracket rotating arm stabilizing member 1-6, and the other end is fixed to the fixed end of the helmet bracket telescopic arm 1-1; an elastic member 1-4 is installed inside the outer shell 1-3 of the helmet bracket telescopic arm, and the free end of the elastic member 1-4 is connected to a metal spring 1-5.
[0025] The telescopic end of the helmet bracket telescopic arm 1-1 extends into a helmet bracket telescopic arm hook 1-7. The face mask 2 consists of an upper face mask housing 2-1 and a lower face mask housing 2-2. The upper face mask housing 2-1 includes a transparent protective cover, and the lower face mask housing 2-2 is provided with a valve body.
