Summary of the Invention
Problems to be Solved by the Invention
[0004] By the way, the position of the fan unit relative to the side of the neck varies depending on the physique of the wearer. If the position of the fan unit is too close to the side of the neck, the fan unit repeatedly hits the side of the neck during work. As a result, the wearing comfort of the helmet may be reduced.
Means for Solving the Problems
[0005] A fan mounting device for solving the above problems is a fan mounting device for attaching a fan unit to a helmet, including a sheet body having flexibility to which the fan unit is attached and attached to the helmet by an attachment member, and a distance variable unit that moves at least a part of the position of the sheet body in a direction away from the helmet.
[0006] According to the above configuration, the seat body on which the fan unit is disposed can be moved in a direction away from the helmet. Thereby, the position of the fan unit attached to the seat body can also be adjusted. When the fan unit is moved in a direction away from the helmet, the fan unit can be separated from the side of the neck and it becomes difficult to hit the side of the neck. As a result, the wearing comfort of the helmet can be improved.
[0007] In the above fan mounting device, the distance variable part may be configured to move a part of the seat body between a first position close to the helmet and a second position away from the helmet.
[0008] According to the above configuration, since the position of the seat body on which the fan unit is attached with respect to the side of the neck can be adjusted between the first position and the second position, the wearing comfort of the helmet can be improved. In the above fan mounting device, a part of the seat body may be configured to be held by the mounting member at each of the first position and the second position. According to the above configuration, it is possible to prevent the position of the seat body on which the fan unit is attached with respect to the side of the neck from changing during work and the wearing comfort of the helmet from deteriorating.
[0009] In the above fan mounting device, the seat body includes an elongated collar portion disposed along the mounting edge portion with respect to the helmet, and the collar portion may be configured to have a resilience greater than that of the seat body.
[0010] According to the above configuration, the mounting edge portion of the seat body having flexibility is reinforced by the collar portion. Thereby, the seat body can be firmly attached to the helmet. And by bending the collar portion, at least a part of the position of the seat body can be moved in a direction away from the helmet.
[0011] In the above-described fan mounting device, the collar portion includes a broken line and is bendable so as to change the position of the fan unit from a first position close to the helmet to a second position farther from the helmet than the first position. The distance variable portion may be configured to be formed at a bent portion of the collar portion.
[0012] According to the above configuration, the position of the fan unit can be changed between the first position and the second position by using the collar portion that reinforces the mounting edge portion of the seat body. Further, by providing a broken line and making it bendable, the collar portion can be easily bent.
[0013] In the above-described fan mounting device, the mounting member may be configured by a clip. According to the above configuration, the attachment and detachment of the seat body to and from the helmet can be easily performed. Also, the attachment position of the seat body to the helmet can be easily adjusted.
[0014] In the above-described fan mounting device, a support sheet to which the fan unit is attached and which is attached to the seat body is provided. The support sheet has a through hole. The fan unit includes a first half body and a second half body that are butt-joined. An annular support ring portion having a repulsive force higher than that of the support sheet is disposed at a peripheral portion of the through hole. The first half body and the second half body may be configured to be butt-joined while sandwiching the peripheral portion of the through hole together with the support ring portion, thereby attaching the fan unit to the through hole while constituting the fan unit.
[0015] According to the above configuration, by interposing a support ring portion having a higher repulsive force than the support sheet and attaching it to the peripheral portion of the through hole of the support sheet, the fan unit can be stably attached to the support sheet.
[0016] In the above-described fan mounting device, the collar portion and the support ring portion may be configured to be connected. According to the above configuration, the collar portion and the support ring portion are connected by a connecting portion, so that the fan unit can be more stably supported.
[0017] In the above fan mounting device, the support ring portion may be configured to include an upper support portion for supporting the fan unit in an upper position and a lower support portion for supporting the fan unit in a lower position.
[0018] According to the above configuration, the fan unit is attached to the peripheral edge of the through hole of the support sheet with a support ring portion having a higher repulsive force than the support sheet interposed therebetween, so that the fan unit can be stably attached to the support sheet. By selectively attaching the fan unit to the upper support portion and the lower support portion, the attachment position of the fan unit can be adjusted according to the size of the wearer's head circumference, preferences, and the like.
[0019] A helmet device for solving the above problems includes a helmet and a fan mounting device for attaching a fan unit to the helmet. The fan mounting device includes a sheet body having flexibility to which the fan unit is attached and attached to the helmet by an attachment member, and a distance variable portion that moves at least a part of the position of the sheet body in a direction away from the helmet.
Effect of the Invention
[0020] According to the present invention, the wearing feeling of the helmet can be improved.

Embodiments for Carrying Out the Invention
[0022] Hereinafter, the accessory attachment device and the helmet device according to the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings. <Overall Configuration of the Helmet Device> As shown in Fig. 1, the helmet device according to this embodiment includes a helmet 10 and an accessory attachment device 20. The accessory attachment device 20 is a sheet member (flange) that hangs down in the region from both side surfaces to the back surface of the helmet 10 and is used as a sunshade, windbreaker, etc. And a fan unit 22 is attached to the accessory attachment device 20 as an accessory. The helmet device has a function of blowing air to the wearer's neck muscles 2 and the inside of the helmet 10 by attaching the accessory attachment device 20 to the helmet 10. In this embodiment, the accessory attachment device 20 is a fan attachment device to which the fan unit 22 is attached.
[0023] In addition, in the helmet device of this embodiment, the front direction refers to the direction in which the face faces when the wearer wears the helmet 10, and the rear direction refers to the direction of the back of the head. Also, the right side of the wearer is referred to as the right side surface direction, and the left side is referred to as the left side surface direction.
[0024] <Configuration of the helmet> The helmet 10 includes a cap body 11. The cap body 11 has a substantially hollow hemispherical shape. The cap body 11 is formed in a substantially hemispherical shape by a resin material such as ABS resin. The cap body 11 has an opening end 11a for wearing formed on the lower surface. In the region of the cap body 11 in the front direction and near the opening end 11a, a visor portion 13 that protrudes forward to protect the user's face from rain, falling objects, etc. is provided. Further, the cap body 11 is provided with a flange portion 14 near the opening end 11a and other than the visor portion 13. The flange portion 14 is a concave groove that opens upward, for example, a rain gutter. And as will be described later, the accessory attachment device 20 is attached to the flange portion 14 via an attachment member 24.
[0025] An impact-absorbing material such as styrofoam may be disposed on the inner surface of the cap body 11. Further, a hammock may be attached to the inner surface of the cap body 11. The hammock has flexibility and has a curved shape adapted to the wearer's head as its basic shape. The hammock includes an elliptical ceiling portion located at the top of the head and a plurality of legs extending radially from the ceiling portion. Each leg is attached directly or indirectly to the inner surface of the cap body 11 near the open end 11a formed on the lower surface of the cap body 11.
[0026] <First Embodiment> <Description of Accessory Mounting Device> As shown in FIGS. 1 and 2, the accessory mounting device 20 includes a seat body 21, a fan unit 22 as an accessory, and a support seat 23. The accessory mounting device 20 functions as a sunshade and a windbreaker by covering the neck muscles 2. In addition, the accessory mounting device 20 blows air to the inside of the helmet 10, the neck muscles 2, and the neck by the fan unit 22.
[0027] The seat body 21 and the support seat 23 are made of a fabric in which a woven fabric is sandwiched between soft synthetic resins. Such a fabric is a vinyl chloride-based multilayer material obtained by laminating a vinyl chloride sheet on a cloth or a woven fabric, sandwiching it, or applying a vinyl chloride paint. It is also a sheet in which vinyl chloride resin is laminated on both sides of a woven fabric of synthetic fibers such as polyester and nylon. Such a fabric has flexibility, is less likely to tear compared to a cloth carrier or a single vinyl chloride sheet, and has excellent durability. Also, such a fabric is less likely to come apart even at the cut end. The seat body 21 and the support seat 23 are formed by punching out from a raw fabric. The seat body 21 includes a flexible seat portion that can be bent when pushed against the air blowing surface of the fan unit 22 or when the air from the fan unit 22 hits it.
[0028] <Description of Seat Body> As shown in FIGS. 1 and 2, the sheet body 21 is a rectangular sheet material. In the sheet body 21, the length of its long side has a length that can be attached from one side surface of the cap body 11 through the back surface to the other side surface. In the sheet body 21, the lengths of its right short side 21c and left short side 21d are such that when the upper long side 21a of the sheet body 21 is attached to the flange portion 14 of the cap body 11, the lower long side 21b extends to the vicinity of the wearer's shoulder. The upper long side 21a, the lower long side 21b, the right short side 21c, and the left short side 21d are in a straight line shape. Of course, at least one of the upper long side 21a, the lower long side 21b, the right short side 21c, and the left short side 21d may have a shape other than a straight line shape, for example, a wavy line shape. Also, the lower long side 21b, the right short side 21c, and the left short side 21d may be in an arc shape that bulges outward or recesses inward.
[0029] As shown in FIG. 3, when the sheet body 21 is attached to the flange portion 14 of the helmet 10 through the attachment member 24, it includes an inner surface 21y that is the surface on the side of the wearer's neck muscle 2 and an outer surface 21x that is on the side opposite to the wearer's neck muscle 2. The space between the wearer's neck muscle 2 and the inner surface 21y is the inner space 25a, and the area behind the outer surface 21x is the outer space 25b. The outer space 25b is a space where the fan unit 22 is attached.
[0030] The sheet body 21 has a wind diffusion portion 26 at approximately the central portion that faces the fan unit 22. The wind diffusion portion 26 is a region where the air blown from the fan unit 22 directly hits, and diffuses the wind in all directions. Also, the wind diffusion portion 26 is a region that is pushed in the direction of the neck muscle 2 by the air blowing surface of the fan unit 22. The wind diffusion portion 26 has a larger area than the air blowing surface of the opposing fan unit 22. The periphery of the wind diffusion portion 26 is provided with a plurality of air holes 27. In this embodiment, the plurality of air holes 27 is four. The plurality of air holes 27 includes an upper air hole 27a and a lower air hole 27b. Also, the plurality of air holes 27 includes a right air hole 27c and a left air hole 27d. The upper air hole 27a, the lower air hole 27b, the right air hole 27c, and the left air hole 27d are provided symmetrically with respect to a central line extending vertically through the attachment center of the attached fan unit 22 as the axis of symmetry.
[0031] As shown in FIGS. 3 and 4, the upper air hole 27a is located above the air diffusion part 26. The upper air hole 27a has a horizontal single-character shape and is a linear slit. Also, the upper air hole 27a is wider in the left-right direction than the lower air hole 27b. The upper air hole 27a has a length longer than the maximum dimension in the left-right direction, that is, the maximum outer diameter, of the circular fan unit 22 when the fan unit 22 is attached. The midpoint in the left-right direction of the upper air hole 27a is located above the attachment center of the attached fan unit 22. As a result, both ends of the upper air hole 27a are located further outside the left-right ends of the arranged fan unit 22. The upper air hole 27a is pushed against the air blowing surface of the fan unit 22, and the air diffusion part 26 bends toward the inner space 25a side, so that a ventilation path for air to pass through is formed by the upper and lower ends forming the slit being displaced back and forth. Thereby, a part of the diffused air diffused by the air diffusion part 26 is widely blown upward through the upper air hole 27a.
[0032] The lower air hole 27b is located below the air diffusion part 26. The lower air hole 27b is narrower in the left-right direction than the upper air hole 27a. The lower air hole 27b has a shape that is wider in the left-right direction on the lower side than on the upper side. In the present embodiment, the lower air hole 27b has a trapezoidal shape or an upper chord shape, and the upper edge is close to the air diffusion part 26. The length of the lower air hole 27b in the left-right direction is formed shorter on the upper edge side than on the lower edge side. The maximum width of the lower air hole 27b in the left-right direction is the same as the maximum dimension in the left-right direction, that is, the maximum outer diameter, of the circular fan unit 22 when the fan unit 22 is attached. The lower air hole 27b is pushed against the air blowing surface of the fan unit 22 and bends toward the inner space 25a side, so that a ventilation path for air to pass through is formed. Thereby, a part of the diffused air diffused by the air diffusion part 26 is widely blown toward the upper body direction of the wearer through the lower air hole 27b.
[0033] The right air hole 27c is located on the right side with respect to the air diffusion part 26. The left air hole 27d is located on the left side with respect to the air diffusion part 26. Each of the right air hole 27c and the left air hole 27d has a right-angled triangle shape. In each of the right air hole 27c and the left air hole 27d, the smallest inner angle part is located on the lower side, and the opposite side part with respect to the inner angle part is located on the upper side. Also, in each of the right air hole 27c and the left air hole 27d, the adjacent side part is close to the air diffusion part 26, and the hypotenuse part is located farther away than the adjacent side part. The opposite side part connected to the upper end of the adjacent side part is perpendicular to the adjacent side part. For example, the smallest inner angle part is at the same height as the lower edge of the lower air hole 27b. The opposite side part located on the upper side is located lower than the position of the upper air hole 27a. Also, the opposite side part is located below the upper end of the attached fan unit 22. Each of the right air hole 27c and the left air hole 27d is pushed against the air blowing surface of the fan unit 22, and the air diffusion part 26 bends toward the inner space 25a side, thereby forming a ventilation path for air to pass through. As a result, a part of the diffused air diffused by the air diffusion part 26 is widely blown out in the direction around the wearer's neck through the right air hole 27c and the left air hole 27d.
[0034] Between the upper air hole 27a and the right air hole 27c, between the upper air hole 27a and the left air hole 27d, between the lower air hole 27b and the right air hole 27c, and between the lower air hole 27b and the left air hole 27d are connecting parts 30 that connect the air diffusion part 26 and the area outside the air holes 27. The connecting parts 30 are pushed against the air blowing surface of the fan unit 22 and bend in the direction of the neck muscles 2. Also, the connecting parts 30 act to bend in the same direction by being pushed by the air blowing from the air blowing surface of the fan unit 22. That is, the seat body 21 includes an air diffusion part 26 in the central part, a plurality of air holes 27 around the air diffusion part 26, and a peripheral part 23a outside the air holes 27. The air diffusion part 26 and the peripheral part 23a are connected by connecting parts 30 between the plurality of air holes 27. And at least the air diffusion part 26 and the connecting parts 30 constitute a flexible sheet part that bends by being pushed against the air blowing surface of the fan unit 22 or by being pushed by the air blowing.
[0035] As shown in FIGS. 4 and 5, in the sheet body 21, a color portion 28 is disposed at a position along the upper long side 21a. The upper long side 21a is an attachment edge portion where the color portion 28 is disposed. The color portion 28 is fixed along the upper long side 21a by an adhesive, welding, or the like. The color portion 28 is an elongated rectangular plate and is a long member. The color portion 28 may be slightly shorter but has the same length as the upper long side 21a. The color portion 28 is a rectangular plate having a higher resilience than the sheet body 21 and is, for example, a synthetic resin plate. The color portion 28 is disposed between the upper long side 21a and the upper air hole 27a while being along the upper long side 21a. The color portion 28 reinforces the sheet body 21 and makes it less likely to bend than the sheet body 21, thereby facilitating attachment to the flange portion 14 of the cap body 11. Note that the color portion 28 may be disposed so as to protrude above the upper long side 21a.
[0036] The color portion 28 is provided with mounting holes 29 that penetrate the color portion 28 and the sheet body 21. Six mounting holes 29 are provided, four of which are central mounting holes 29a and the remaining two are outer mounting holes 29b. The central mounting holes 29a are provided in pairs, two on each side, with the central line extending vertically through the center in the longitudinal direction of the color portion 28 as the axis of symmetry. The two central mounting holes 29a located inside among the four central mounting holes 29a are spaced apart from each other and serve as a distance variable portion 31 described later. Note that only two central mounting holes 29a may be provided at symmetric positions with respect to the central mounting holes 29a. The outer mounting holes 29b are located outside the central mounting holes 29a located on the outside. Each outer mounting hole 29b is located near the end of the color portion 28. Each of the central mounting holes 29a is a horizontally long slot. The outer mounting hole 29b is a cross-shaped hole formed by overlapping a vertically long hole with a horizontally long slot. Each of the mounting holes 29 is engaged with a mounting member 24.
[0037] Between a pair of central mounting holes 29a located on the inner side, a variable distance portion 31 for varying the distance between the fan unit 22 and the collar 2 is formed. Between the central mounting holes 29a, as the variable distance portion 31, a pair of inner folding lines 32 parallel to each other and a pair of outer folding lines 33 are provided. The inner folding line 32 and the outer folding line 33 are linear folding lines extending in the vertical direction. Between the inner folding lines 32 is a variable portion 34 where the distance from the cap body 11 varies.
[0038] As shown in FIG. 6, when the variable portion 34 is not bent by the inner folding line 32 and the outer folding line 33, it is positioned so as to be close to and along the flange portion 14 (first position). That is, the variable portion 34 is positioned without a gap with respect to the flange portion 14. Then, as shown in FIG. 7, when viewed from the rear surface direction, the variable distance portion 31 makes the outer folding line 33 a valley fold and the inner folding line 32 a mountain fold. As a result, the variable portion 34 moves in a direction away from the flange portion 14 and is positioned spaced apart from the flange portion 14 (second position). That is, the collar portion 28 can be bent so that both end portions in the longitudinal direction approach each other. As a result, the area between the outer folding lines 33 bends into a C shape. And in the region between the outer folding lines 33, an insertion space 35 inserted vertically is formed. The insertion space 35 functions as an air volume adjustment hole through which the wind from the fan unit 22 escapes. The fan unit 22 disposed on the seat body 21 is close to the collar 2 when the variable portion 34 is in the first position, and is farther from the collar 2 than in the first position when in the second position.
[0039] The seat body 21 is attached to the flange portion 14 while engaging the attachment member 24 with each attachment hole 29. When the seat body 21 is attached to the flange portion 14 by the attachment member 24 with the upper long side 21a and the collar portion 28 extended, the variable portion 34 is held in the first position. Also, when the inner folding line 32 and the outer folding line 33 are bent and attached to the flange portion 14 by the attachment member 24, the variable portion 34 is held in the second position. Further, by adjusting the degree of bending of the inner folding line 32 and the outer folding line 33, the variable portion 34 can also be positioned at a position between the first position and the second position. For example, when the variable portion 34 is in the second position, it bends according to that position, and the position of the fan unit 22 can be separated from the collar 2.
[0040] <Description of the fan unit> As shown in FIGS. 2 and 3, the fan unit 22 generally has a flat circular shape and is formed by butting and coupling a first half body 22a and a second half body 22b. The first half body 22a has a bowl shape, and a fan, a motor for rotating the fan, etc. are arranged therein. The second half body 22b is a cover that is butted and coupled to the first half body 22a by a screw action or the like, and has a flat dish shape. The first half body 22a serves as the air blowing surface. Here, in the present embodiment, the fan unit 22 is arranged such that the bulged first half body 22a faces the inner space 25a and the second half body 22b faces the outer space 25b. As an example, the fan unit 22 is driven such that the first half body 22a side is the air blowing side and the second half body 22b side is the air intake side. The flat dish-shaped second half body 22b on the air intake side faces the outer space 25b, so that the unevenness of the outer surface 21x can be suppressed, and as a result, the appearance can be improved. The bowl-shaped first half body 22a on the exhaust side is located in the inner space 25a, so that the inner space 25a is effectively utilized. The bulged first half body 22a presses the seat body 21, particularly the wind diffusion portion 26, in the direction of the neck 2. Thereby, the openings of the plurality of air holes 27 are greatly widened so that the ventilation path becomes larger.
[0041] The fan unit 22 is connected through a battery such as a secondary battery and a power cord. The battery is stored in the pocket, bag, etc. of the wearer. Also, the battery may be arranged inside the helmet 10.
[0042] The fan unit 22 is attached to the seat body 21 via a support sheet 23 provided with a through hole 36 for attaching the fan unit 22. The fan unit 22 is attached to the support sheet 23 by sandwiching the peripheral edge portion 36a of the through hole 36 between the outer peripheral ends of the first half body 22a and the second half body 22b that are butted against each other.
[0043] <Description of the support sheet> As shown in FIGS. 2 and 3, the support sheet 23 has a trapezoidal shape, with the upper base formed longer than the lower base. The support sheet 23 has the fan unit 22 attached thereto. The support sheet 23 is larger than the fan unit 22 and smaller than the sheet body 21. Further, the support sheet 23 is sized to cover the upper air holes 27a, the lower air holes 27b, the right air holes 27c, and the left air holes 27d. The central portion of the support sheet 23 is provided with a through hole 36 for attaching the fan unit 22. The through hole 36 is an arrangement hole where the fan unit 22 is arranged. The through hole 36 is a perfect circle with a diameter slightly smaller than the outer diameter of the fan unit 22. The peripheral portion 36a of the through hole 36 is a region that is sandwiched between the outer peripheral ends of the first half body 22a and the second half body 22b when the fan unit 22 is attached.
[0044] The positions along each side of the support sheet 23 are attachment portions 37 for attaching to the sheet body 21. That is, the attachment portions 37 are configured to surround the upper air holes 27a, the lower air holes 27b, the right air holes 27c, and the left air holes 27d. Each attachment portion 37 is joined to the sheet body 21 by an adhesive, welding, or the like. Note that the opposing position of the sheet body 21 facing the attachment portion 37 is the portion to be attached 38.
[0045] The support sheet 23 configured as described above joins and integrates the attachment portion 37 and the portion to be attached 38. Note that the joining locations (attachment portion 37 and portion to be attached 38) of the support sheet 23 to the sheet body 21 may be continuous without a gap or may have a gap.
[0046] The sheet body, which is the sheet main body 21 to which the support sheet 23 is joined, has the fan unit 22 attached to the support sheet 23. The fan unit 22 is attached by sandwiching the peripheral edge 36a of the through hole 36 between the outer peripheral ends of the first half body 22a and the second half body 22b, and joining the first half body 22a and the second half body 22b. Also, the fan unit is attached with the first half body 22a on the air-sending side facing the inner surface 21y side and the second half body 22b facing the outer surface 21x side. After that, the sheet body to which the fan unit 22 is attached is attached to the flange portion 14 of the cap body 11 by the attachment member 24.
[0047] Such a support sheet 23 supports the fan unit 22 and can prevent the air sent out from the fan unit 22 from being blown back to the side opposite to the air-sending direction. Therefore, the air sent from the fan unit 22 can be sent out from the plurality of air holes 27 into the inner space 25a without waste.
[0048] <Description of the attachment member> As shown in FIG. 8, the attachment member 24 is a clip for detachably attaching the sheet main body 21 to the flange portion 14 of the cap body 11. The attachment member 24 includes a first member 41 inserted through the attachment hole 29 of the sheet main body 21 and a second member 42 for jointly attaching the first member 41 to the flange portion 14.
[0049] The first member 41 has a U shape, and one end portion 41a has the second member 42 rotatably attached thereto. The other end is the insertion end for the attachment hole 29. The second member 42 is rotated and press-fitted in a direction to close the opening between one end and the other end. The second member 42 includes a rotation fulcrum portion 42a for the one end portion 41a of the first member 41. Also, the second member 42 includes a press-contact portion 42b that is press-contacted with the surface of the cap body 11 near the flange portion 14.
[0050] The attachment member 24 attaches the seat body 21 as follows. Specifically, the first member 41 is hooked on the attachment hole 29 of the seat body 21. Next, the second member 42 is arranged such that the pressure contact portion 42b is on the surface of the cap body 11 near the flange portion 14. The wearer can adjust the position of the variable portion 34 between the first position and the second position. Then, when the position of the seat body 21 relative to the flange portion 14 is determined, the first member 41 is rotated so that the lower end of the cap body 11 is inserted between one end portion 41a and the other end portion. That is, the flange portion 14 is inserted between the one end portion 41a and the other end portion. The one end portion 41a is located inside the cap body 11. Thereby, the attachment member 24 is in a locked state.
[0051] Incidentally, the attachment member 24 is in an unlocked state until the first member 41 is rotated and the pressure contact portion 42b is pressure contacted, and is movable along the flange portion 14. Thereby, the wearer can adjust the position of the variable portion 34 between the first position and the second position.
[0052] The seat body 21 can be easily removed from the flange portion 14. In this case, the attachment member 24 is unlocked by rotating the first member 41 in the opposite direction. Thereafter, the attachment member 24 can be removed from the flange portion 14. Also, when the attachment member 24 is in the unlocked state, the position of the variable portion 34 can be varied by moving the collar portion 28.
[0053] <Explanation of the operation - usage method of the present embodiment-> The operation of the present embodiment will be described. When the seat body 21 is attached to the flange portion 14 of the helmet 10, the helmet 10 is worn on the head. Then, the seat body 21 covers the wearer's neck muscles 2. Therefore, the seat body 21 functions as a sunshade and a windbreak. Further, the fan unit 22 is also positioned opposite to the neck muscles 2. The wind diffusion portion 26 of the support seat 23 is pushed by the swollen first half body 22a of the fan unit 22, and the air blowing surface approaches the neck muscles 2. Then, in the plurality of air holes 27, the ventilation paths of the respective air holes 27 are enlarged due to the positions of the wind diffusion portion 26 and the connecting portion 30 being bent in the front - rear direction.
[0054] When the motor is driven, the fan unit 22 sucks air from the outside and blows it against the wind diffusing portion 26. Then, as shown in FIGS. 3 and 9, the wind diffusing portion 26 diffuses the wind in all directions.
[0055] The upward wind W1 blows out from the upper wind hole 27a and blows into the gap between the inside of the helmet 10 and the head. Then, the blown wind W1 flows from the rear surface to the front surface of the helmet 10. The downward wind W2 blows out from the lower wind hole 27b and flows in the direction of the upper body of the wearer. Since the downward flowing wind W2 flows inside the seat body 21, it can be suppressed from diffusing outward. The rightward wind W3 blows out from the right wind hole 27c and flows around the wearer's neck. The leftward wind W4 blows out from the left wind hole 27d and flows around the wearer's neck.
[0056] By the way, there may be a case where the position of the fan unit 22 with respect to the neck muscle 2 is not optimal by the wearer. For example, depending on the build of the wearer, etc., when the variable part 34 is in the first position, the fan unit 22 may hit the neck muscle 2 too much, and the wearing comfort may deteriorate. In such a case, the pressing state in which the pressing portion 42b of the attachment member 24 presses the outer surface of the cap body 11 is loosened by rotating the first member 41 to an unlocked state. As a result, the collar portion 28 can move the both end portions in the longitudinal direction closer to each other and bend at the portions of the inner folding line 32 and the outer folding line 33.
[0057] When the variable part 34 is in an extended state without being bent by the inner folding line 32 and the outer folding line 33, it is positioned so as to be close to and along the flange portion 14 (first position). Therefore, the fan unit 22 relatively approaches the nape 2. Also, when viewed from the rear surface direction, the variable part 34 is separated from the flange portion 14 by making the outer folding line 33 a valley fold and the inner folding line 32 a mountain fold (second position). As a result, the vicinity of the variable part 34 of the seat body 21 moves away from the nape 2, and accordingly, the fan unit 22 also relatively moves away from the nape 2. Thereby, the position of the fan unit 22 attached to the seat body 21 can also be adjusted. When the variable part 34 is in the second position, an insertion space 35 is provided. By allowing a part of the air diffused by the air diffusion part 26 to flow out from the insertion space 35, the air volume is adjusted. The insertion space 35 also functions as one of the air holes. When the fan unit 22 is operated in the rear surface direction, by moving the fan unit 22 away from the nape 2, it becomes less likely to hit the nape 2. As a result, the wearing comfort of the helmet is improved.
[0058] When the fan unit 22 is not attached, another sheet without the through hole 36 of the support sheet 23 can be attached so as to block the air hole 27. Thereby, even when the fan unit 22 is not attached, the seat body 21 can hide the air hole 27 and suppress the deterioration of the appearance. Also, the reduction in the functions as a sunshade and a windbreak can be suppressed. Note that the seat body 21 may be attached to the flange portion 14 without attaching the support sheet 23. In this case, the through hole 36 will function as a ventilation hole.
[0059] In addition, other accessories may be attached to the support sheet 23 other than the fan unit 22. For example, accessories such as heaters, Peltier elements, and hand warmers may be attached to the support sheet 23. In such a case, the support sheet 23 has the accessory removably or fixedly attached thereto according to the type of the accessory. And such a support sheet 23 is to be attached to the seat body 21 by exchanging it with the support sheet 23 to which the fan unit 22 is attached. For example, the heating appliance attached to the support sheet 23 is radiated in the direction of the neck muscle 2 through the air hole 27.
[0060] <Effects of the First Embodiment> (1-1) By bending the color part 28, the seat body 21 on which the fan unit 22 is arranged can be moved in a direction away from the helmet 10. Thereby, the position of the fan unit 22 attached to the seat body 21 can also be adjusted. When the fan unit 22 is moved in a direction away from the helmet 10, the fan unit 22 can be separated from the neck muscle 2 and made less likely to hit the neck muscle 2. As a result, the wearing comfort of the helmet can be improved.
[0061] (1-2) Since the position of the seat body 21 to which the fan unit 22 is attached with respect to the neck muscle 2 can be adjusted between the first position and the second position, the wearing comfort of the helmet 10 can be improved.
[0062] (1-3) The seat body 21 is held by the attachment member 24 at each of the first position and the second position. Therefore, it is possible to prevent the position of the seat body 21 to which the fan unit 22 is attached with respect to the neck muscle 2 from changing during work and the wearing comfort of the helmet 10 from deteriorating.
[0063] (1-4) The upper long side 21a, which is the attachment edge of the flexible sheet body 21, is reinforced by the color portion 28. As a result, the sheet body 21 can be firmly attached to the helmet 10. And by bending the color portion 28, at least a part of the position of the sheet body 21 can be moved in a direction away from the helmet 10.
[0064] (1-5) The color portion 28 is provided with an inner folding line 32 and an outer folding line 33, and the position of the fan unit 22 can be changed by using the color portion 28 that reinforces the upper long side 21a, which is the attachment edge of the sheet body 21. Also, the color portion 28 can be easily bent by providing the inner folding line 32 and the outer folding line 33 to make it foldable.
[0065] (1-6) The attachment member 24 is a clip. Therefore, the sheet body 21 can be easily attached to and detached from the flange portion 14. Also, the attachment position of the sheet body 21 with respect to the flange portion 14 can be easily adjusted.
[0066] <Second Embodiment> As shown in FIGS. 10 and 11, an annular support ring portion 46 having a higher resilience than the support sheet 23 may be arranged at the peripheral edge portion 36a of the through hole 36. The first half body 22a and the second half body 22b constituting the fan unit 22 are butted and joined in a state where the peripheral edge portion 36a of the through hole 36 is sandwiched together with the support ring portion 46. Here, the support ring portion 46 is a reinforcing plate and an annular plate body. The support ring portion 46 is, for example, a synthetic resin plate having a higher resilience than the sheet body 21. For example, the support ring portion 46 is provided by punching out the same plate material as the color portion 28. The support ring portion 46 is arranged at the peripheral edge portion 36a of the through hole 36 in the support sheet 23. The surface of the support sheet 23 where the support ring portion 46 is arranged is preferably provided on the inner surface, which is the surface facing the sheet body 21 rather than the outer surface. In this way, the support ring portion 46 can be hidden.
[0067] Next, the effects of the second embodiment will be described. (2-1) The support ring portion 46 has a repulsive force greater than that of the support sheet 23, enabling the fan unit 22 to be stably attached to the support sheet 23. Also, at the butting joint portion between the first half 22a and the second half 22b of the fan unit 22, it is possible to prevent the peripheral edge portion 36a from being pinched in a wrinkled state.
[0068] <Third Embodiment> As shown in FIGS. 12 and 13, in the third embodiment, the collar portion 28 and the support ring portion 46 of the second embodiment are formed as a single component, serving as the support member 47. That is, the support member 47 includes the support ring portion 46 and the connecting piece 48. The support ring portion 46 is the same as the support ring portion 46 of the second embodiment. The connecting piece 48 is a linear piece extending outward from the support ring portion 46. The support member 47 is provided by punching out the same plate material as the collar portion 28.
[0069] The tip of the connecting piece 48 is attached to the variable portion 34 of the collar portion 28 by an attachment pin 49 as an attachment member such as a pin. In this embodiment, the connecting piece 48 is attached to the variable portion 34 so as to be rotatable in the left - right direction by passing through the vicinity of the upper long side 21a by the attachment pin 49. By rotating the connecting piece 48 around the attachment pin 49, fine adjustment of the position of the fan unit 22 is possible. Note that the attachment pin 49 may be fixed so that the connecting piece 48 does not rotate with respect to the variable portion 34.
[0070] Next, the effects of the third embodiment will be described. (3-1) The support member 47 is connected by the collar portion 28 and the connecting piece 48. Thereby, the posture of the fan unit 22, which is a heavy object, can be made more stable than when it is supported only by the flexible support sheet 23.
[0071] (3-2) The color part 28 and the support ring part 46 integrated with the fan unit 22 are connected via a connecting piece 48 and are integral. The support member 47 is, like the color part 28, a plate material with a higher resilience than the support sheet 23. Therefore, even when the variable part 34 in the color part 28 moves to the second position, the fan unit 22 can be separated from the collar 2 accordingly. That is, when the support ring part 46 and the variable part 34 are not connected through the connecting piece 48, the fan unit 22 can be separated from the collar 2 by moving the variable part 34 to the second position. However, due to the weight of the fan unit 22, the seat body 21 and the support sheet 23 tend to bend in the direction of the collar 2, and the amount of separation from the collar 2 tends to be small.
[0072] In this regard, the fan unit 22 is connected to the color part 28 by a support member 47 with a higher resilience than the seat body 21 and the support sheet 23. Therefore, it is possible to make it difficult for the fan unit 22 to approach the collar 2 due to the weight of the fan unit 22. In the third embodiment, as in the first and second embodiments, when the fan unit 22 and the variable part 34 which is a part of the color part 28 are not connected to the connecting piece 48, in the second position, the fan unit 22 can be separated from the collar 2 more by utilizing the resilience of the connecting piece 48.
[0073] <Fourth Embodiment> The fourth embodiment is a modified example of the support member 47 in the third embodiment, and within the support ring part, the fan unit 22 can move between an upper position and a lower position. As shown in FIGS. 14 and 15, the support member 51 includes a support ring part 52 and a connecting piece 53. The support ring part 52 has an elongated hole shape with the vertical direction as the major axis. And in the middle of the vertical direction, it is provided with a constricted part 54. And the support ring part 52 is configured with an upper support part 52a on the upper side and a lower support part 52b on the lower side with the constricted part 54 as the boundary.
[0074] In this case, the shape of the through hole 36 of the support sheet 23 is a long hole shape corresponding to the support ring portion 52. In the present embodiment, the through hole 36 does not provide a portion corresponding to the constricted portion 54 of the support ring portion 52, but such a portion may be provided.
[0075] As shown in FIG. 14, when the fan unit 22 is positioned at the upper position held by the upper support portion 52a, the upper support portion 52a is sandwiched between the first half body 22a and the second half body 22b constituting the fan unit 22. The region sandwiched between the first half body 22a and the second half body 22b is the circular portion of the upper support portion 52a and the constricted portion located below the upper support portion 52a.
[0076] As shown in FIG. 15, when the fan unit 22 is positioned at the lower position held by the lower support portion 52b, the lower support portion 52b is sandwiched between the first half body 22a and the second half body 22b constituting the fan unit 22. The region sandwiched between the first half body 22a and the second half body 22b is the circular portion of the lower support portion 52b and the constricted portion located above the lower support portion 52b.
[0077] Note that the support ring portion 52 may be provided with, for example, two constricted portions 54 in the vertical direction instead of one. In this case, three support portions, namely an upper support portion, a middle support portion, and a lower support portion, will be provided to support the fan unit 22. Thus, if the number of constricted portions 54 provided in the support ring portion 52 in the vertical direction is increased, the number of support portions for supporting the fan unit 22 can be increased.
[0078] Next, the effects of the fourth embodiment will be described. (4-1) The position of the fan unit 22 can be adjusted at two positions, an upper position and a lower position. Thereby, according to the size of the wearer's head circumference, preferences, etc., the vertical position of the fan unit 22 can be adjusted at two positions, and the wearing comfort can be improved.
[0079] In the upper position (4-2), since the fan unit 22 is also supported by the constricted portion below the upper support portion 52a, it is less likely to shift in the direction of the lower support portion 52b due to the weight of the fan unit 22. Also, in the lower position, since the fan unit 22 is supported by the constricted portion above the lower support portion 52b, it is less likely to shift in the direction of the upper support portion 52a.
[0080] <Fifth Embodiment> The fifth embodiment is a modification of the support ring portion in the fourth embodiment and does not include the constricted portion 54. That is, the support ring portion 56 has an elongated hole shape with the vertical direction of the support ring portion 52 as the major axis. The support ring portion 56 is provided with arc portions at the top and bottom, and the side edges extending vertically are composed of straight lines.
[0081] In this case, the shape of the through hole 36 of the support sheet 23 is an elongated hole shape corresponding to the support ring portion 56. In the present embodiment, the through hole 36 does not provide a portion corresponding to the constricted portion 54 of the support ring portion 52.
[0082] As shown in FIG. 16, the fan unit 22 sandwiches the support ring portion 56 between the first half body 22a and the second half body 22b that constitute the fan unit 22. The region sandwiched between the first half body 22a and the second half body 22b becomes the upper and lower circular portions and the left and right straight portions when in the upper limit position or the lower limit position. Also, at the intermediate position between the upper limit position and the lower limit position, only the left and right straight portions are present.
[0083] Next, the effects of the fifth embodiment will be described. (5-1) Such a support ring portion 56 does not have a constricted portion, so in the vertical direction, it is not limited to two positions, the upper position and the lower position, and the position of the fan unit 22, such as an intermediate position, can be freely adjusted.
[0084] <Modification Example> Note that the first embodiment to the fifth embodiment can be implemented with the following modifications. The first embodiment to the fifth embodiment and the following modification examples can be implemented in combination with each other within a technically non - conflicting range.
[0085] · In the sheet body 21, the color portion 28 may be omitted. When the color portion 28 is omitted, the attachment member 24 may be hooked and attached to the attachment hole 29 provided in the region along the upper long side 21a of the sheet body 21.
[0086] · The sheet body 21 and / or the support sheet 23 are not limited to a fabric in which a woven fabric is sandwiched between soft synthetic resins. The sheet body 21 may be an ordinary cotton woven fabric, a silk woven fabric, etc. Further, the sheet body 21 may be a mesh sheet. Furthermore, it may be a resin sheet. The sheet body 21 and / or the support sheet 23 may be more easily bendable or less bendable than the fabrics used in the first to fifth embodiments. Also, the sheet body 21 and / or the support sheet 23 may have air permeability or may not have air permeability compared to the fabrics used in the first to fifth embodiments.
[0087] · The attachment of the support sheet 23 to the sheet body 21 may be detachable in addition to welding or adhesion. As a detachable configuration of the support sheet 23 with respect to the sheet body 21, a hook-and-loop fastener may be used. In this case, a male hook-and-loop fastener may be arranged on one of the opposing surfaces of the opposing support sheet 23 and the sheet body 21, and a female hook-and-loop fastener may be arranged on the other. Also, a male hook button may be provided on either the sheet body 21 or the support sheet 23, and a female hook button may be provided on the other, and they may be engaged and attached. Also, a configuration may be adopted in which a part such as one side of the support sheet 23 is sewn to the sheet body 21, and the remaining parts such as the other sides are attached with a hook-and-loop fastener, a hook button, etc.
[0088] In the fourth and fifth embodiments, within the support ring portion, the fan unit 22 can move between an upper position and a lower position. For example, if the support sheet 23 is detachable from the sheet body 21, the through hole 36 of the support sheet 23 may be a perfect circle with a diameter slightly smaller than the outer diameter of the fan unit 22. Then, in the fourth embodiment, the vertical position of the support sheet 23 may be adjusted so that the fan unit 22 is attached to either the lower support portion 52b of the support ring portion 52 or a position of the lower support portion 52b. Also, in the fifth embodiment, the vertical position of the support sheet 23 may be adjusted so that it is attached to any position of the long-hole-shaped through hole 36 of the support ring portion 56. Furthermore, in the first and second embodiments, simply making the support sheet 23 detachable from the sheet body 21 and allowing the support sheet 23 to be shifted vertically to enable adjustment of the vertical position may also be acceptable.
[0089] · The attachment member 24 is not limited to a clip. For example, a male snap button may be provided on either the helmet 10 or the sheet body 21, and a female snap button may be provided on the other, and they may be engaged and attached. Also, a male hook-and-loop fastener may be provided on either the helmet 10 or the sheet body 21, and a female hook-and-loop fastener may be provided on the other, and they may be engaged and attached. Furthermore, a hook-shaped hook may be provided on either the helmet 10 or the sheet body 21, and an engagement hole for hanging the hook may be provided on the other.
[0090] · The helmet 10 may not have a flange portion 14. In this case, the sheet body 21 will be attached via the attachment member 24 to the edge along the open end 11a. · Regardless of whether the cap body 11 has a flange portion 14, for example, the sheet body 21 may be configured to be attached to the legs of a hammock disposed on the inner surface of the cap body 11. That is, the position where the sheet body 21 is attached to the helmet 10 is not particularly limited.
[0091] · In the flange portion 14 of the cap body 11, the region where the sheet body 21 is attached may be not only the entire region from both side surfaces to the back surface, but also provided only on the side surface or only on the back surface according to the use environment.
[0092] · The fan unit 22 is not limited to a configuration that can be divided into a first half body 22a and a second half body 22b. The fan unit 22 may not be divided into the first half body 22a and the second half body 22b. In the case of a fan unit having such a configuration, the fan unit 22 may be attached by engaging it with an engaging member such as a hook-shaped hook provided on the support sheet 23.
[0093] · As a whole, the fan unit 22 may have a substantially rectangular parallelepiped shape. In this case, the through hole 36 to which the fan unit 22 is attached also has a rectangular shape that matches the shape of the fan unit 22.
[0094] · The fan unit 22 may be integrated with the support sheet 23 by adhesion, welding, etc. In this case, the fan unit 22 is not replaceable with respect to the support sheet 23. When the fan unit 22 fails or the like, the entire support sheet 23 will be replaced.
[0095] · The arrangements of the upper air hole 27a, the lower air hole 27b, the right air hole 27c, and the left air hole 27d do not have to be symmetric about a line. · The air hole 27 only needs to include the upper air hole 27a and at least one other air hole. That is, the air hole 27 may have a configuration including only the upper air hole 27a and the lower air hole 27b, or a configuration including only the upper air hole 27a, the right air hole 27c, and the left air hole 27d. Also, the air hole 27 may have a configuration including the upper air hole 27a and any one of the right air hole 27c and the left air hole 27d. Further, the air hole 27 may be the upper air hole 27a and an air hole provided at a position other than the lower air hole 27b, the right air hole 27c, and the left air hole 27d.
[0096] ·The shape of the upper air hole 27a is not limited to a linear slit extending in the left-right direction. For example, the upper air hole 27a may be wavy, or may be a long hole with the left-right direction as the major axis, or may be composed of small holes such as circular holes and triangular holes arranged in the left-right direction.
[0097] ·The shape of the lower air hole 27b is not limited to a shape that is wider in the left-right direction on the lower side than on the upper side. For example, the shape of the lower air hole 27b may be wider in the left-right direction on the upper side than on the lower side. Also, the lower air hole 27b may be a linear slit extending in the left-right direction, or may be a long hole with the left-right direction or the up-down direction as the major axis. Also, the lower air hole 27b may be composed of one or more rows of small holes such as circular holes and triangular holes arranged in the left-right direction. Further, the lower air hole 27b may be composed of a plurality of small holes arranged in a matrix.
[0098] ·The right air hole 27c and the left air hole 27d are not limited to a right triangle shape. For example, the right air hole 27c and the left air hole 27d may be isosceles triangle holes, or may be triangle holes with different side lengths for all sides. Also, the right air hole 27c and the left air hole 27d may be polygonal holes such as quadrilateral, pentagonal, and hexagonal holes, or may be holes such as circular and semi-circular shapes. Further, the right air hole 27c and the left air hole 27d may be configured such that slits arranged in the up-down direction or the left-right direction are arranged. Further, the right air hole 27c and the left air hole 27d may be composed of one or more rows of small holes arranged in the left-right direction. The right air hole 27c and the left air hole 27d may have different shapes and sizes.
[0099] · In the seat body 21, a plurality of air holes 27 may be omitted. In this case, the entire seat body 21 becomes the air diffusion part 26. In such a case, the support seat 23 that supports the fan unit 22 is joined to the attachment part 38 of the seat body 21 using the attachment parts 37 in the left - right direction. And, the upper and lower parts of the support seat 23 are in an open state. According to such a configuration, when the fan unit 22 is driven, the diffused air forms a ventilation path that blows out in the vertical direction with the upper and lower ends of the support seat 23 serving as air holes. Also, by simply joining each corner part of the support seat 23 to the seat body 21, ventilation can be configured in all directions (up, down, left, and right). Further, in the support seat 23, the attachment parts 37 along each side may be joined to the attachment part 38 intermittently. In such a case, the non - joined positions become air holes. At least, the support seat 23 should be joined to the seat body 21 so that the ventilation path is configured not only upward but also downward or in the left - right direction.
[0100] · In the support seat 23, it does not have to be a seat with the same flexibility throughout. For example, it may be composed of a seat where the air diffusion part 26 and the connecting part 30 are more flexible than the peripheral part 36a.
[0101] · In the distance variable part 31, the pair of inner folding lines 32 and the pair of outer folding lines 33 may be omitted. This is because if the collar part 28 can be bent, it can bend the seat body 21 backward. Also, the position where the collar part 28 is bent may be not only in the backward direction but also in a position biased in any direction on the left or right side surface.
[0102] · Small elements such as Peltier elements may be attached to the support seat 23 in addition to the fan unit 22. That is, a plurality of accessories may be attached to one support seat 23.
