[0015] The schematic configuration of a helmet 1 according to one embodiment of the present invention will be described using Figures 1 to 5. In this specification, the direction of the helmet 1 is defined from the viewpoint of a user of the helmet 1 wearing the helmet 1. That is, the front from the perspective of a user wearing the helmet 1 is the front of the helmet 1, and the right side from the perspective of the user is the right side of the helmet 1.

[0016] A helmet 1 according to this embodiment includes a helmet shell 2 (hereinafter simply referred to as "shell") made of a hard material such as synthetic resin, and a holding member 10 that holds a band B wound around an edge 2a of the shell 2. A hammock or the like (not shown) made of a soft synthetic resin or the like can be attached and detached to the inside of the shell 2.

[0017] 1 and 2, the band B is a rubber strip-shaped member used to attach a light L, which is an accessory of the helmet 1, to the front of the helmet 1. Note that the accessory that can be attached to the helmet 1 using the band B is not limited to the light L, and other accessories such as goggles can also be attached to the helmet 1.

[0018] 2, the helmet 1 according to this embodiment is provided with a total of four holding members 10. In this embodiment, the holding members 10 are provided at four locations on the front right side, front left side, rear right side, and rear left side of the helmet 1.

[0019] The retaining members 10 provided on the helmet 1 include a first retaining member 10A having the same shape on the front right and rear left sides, and a second retaining member 10B formed in a bilaterally symmetrical shape to the first retaining member 10A on the front left and rear right sides. The first retaining member 10A and the second retaining member 10B have the same shape except for being symmetrical, and therefore will be collectively referred to as "retaining member 10" below. Note that it is sufficient for one or more retaining members 10 to be formed, and multiple retaining members 10 may be formed, but it is preferable to form multiple retaining members 10 in order to stably hold the band B. Furthermore, when multiple retaining members 10 are formed, the shapes of the retaining members 10 may be different or the same.

[0020] As shown in Fig. 3, a total of four fitting portions 21 that protrude outward are formed near the rim portion 2a on the outer surface of the cap body 2 at four locations where the holding members 10 are provided. Each fitting portion 21 has a fitting hole 21a that penetrates in the vertical direction. It is also possible to form the fitting portion 21 on the rim portion 2a. That is, in this embodiment, the term "near the rim portion 2a" is used to mean the area where the rim portion 2a itself is formed.

[0021] A clip portion 11 is formed on the back surface of the holding member 10 (the surface that faces the outer surface of the cap body 2 when the holding member 10 is assembled to the cap body 2). As shown in Fig. 3, the holding member 10 is assembled to the fitting portion 21 by fitting the clip portion 11 into the fitting hole 21a of the fitting portion 21 from above.

[0022] A support post 12 is formed above the clip portion 11 of the holding member 10. A holding portion 13 is formed on the front side of the support post 12, spreading downward from the upper end of the support post 12. In other words, a fixed end is formed on the upper side of the holding portion 13, and an open end is formed on the lower side. One side of the holding portion 13 is formed with a clamping portion 13a that is bent toward the back side, and the other side is formed with an open portion. When the holding member 10 is assembled to the cap body 2, the clamping portion 13a abuts against the outer surface of the cap body 2 (see FIG. 5(b)). As shown in FIGS. 4(a) and (b), the band B is held by the holding portion 13 formed on the upper side of the clip portion 11.

[0023] A cover portion 14 is formed on the front side of the clip portion 11, and the clip portion 11 is covered by the cover portion 14. An inclined surface 14a that slopes downward toward the front side is formed on the upper part of the cover portion 14. A support post 12 is erected upward from the rear end of the inclined surface 14a.

[0024] When holding the band B using the holding member 10, as shown in Figures 4(a) and (b), the band B is slid onto the upper side of the inclined surface 14a of the cover portion 14, and then inserted between the support 12 and the holding portion 13 as shown in Figures 5(a) and (b). In other words, the band B is inserted from the lower open end of the holding portion 13 toward the upper fixed end. At this time, the band B is clamped between the clamping portion 13a and the surface of the helmet body 2 as shown in Figures 4(b) and 5(b). In this way, the band B is held to the helmet 1 via the holding member 10.

[0025] As described above, in the helmet 1 according to this embodiment, the retaining member 10 is integrally formed with the clip portion 11 that fits into the fitting portion 21 (fitting hole 21a) formed in the shell 2, and the retaining portion 13 that holds the band B. This makes it possible to prevent the retaining member 10 from shifting in the circumferential direction at the edge 2a of the shell 2 without having to drill a hole in the shell 2 that communicates between the inside and outside. In other words, because the fitting portion 21 for fixing the separate retaining portion 13 is integrally formed on the outer surface of the shell 2, it can be said that the retaining portion 13 can be fixed to the shell 2 without having to drill a hole in the shell 2 that communicates between the inside and outside. Furthermore, by stabilizing the attachment position of the retaining member 10, it is possible to improve the design of the helmet 1.

[0026] Furthermore, in the helmet 1 according to this embodiment, four fitting portions 21 are formed near the rim 2a of the cap body 2, and a holding member 10 is provided corresponding to each fitting portion 21. This makes it possible to stably hold the band B over the entire circumferential area of ​​the rim 2a of the helmet 1. Note that the number of fitting portions 21 and holding members 10 is not limited to four, and other numbers are also possible.

[0027] Furthermore, in the helmet 1 according to this embodiment, the clip portion 11 of the retaining member 10 is fitted into the fitting portion 21 in a vertical direction that intersects with the circumferential direction of the edge portion 2a. More specifically, the clip portion 11 is fitted downward into a fitting hole 21a that penetrates the fitting portion 21 in the vertical direction. This fixes the retaining member 10 to the cap body 2, making it possible to prevent the retaining member 10 from shifting in the circumferential direction at the edge portion 2a of the cap body 2.

[0028] Furthermore, in the helmet 1 according to this embodiment, the holding portion 13 clamps the band B between the clamping portion 13a and the surface of the shell 2. This makes it possible to hold the band B simply by inserting the band B between the holding portion 13 and the shell 2.

[0029] Furthermore, in the helmet 1 according to this embodiment, the retaining portion 13 has a fixed end formed on the upper side and an open end formed on the lower side. By inserting the band B upward from the open end, the band B is sandwiched between the retaining portion 13 and the surface of the cap body 2. As a result, when the band B is made of rubber and has contractibility, as in this embodiment, the band B shrinks and is less likely to come off the retaining member 10. In other words, the band B can be stably held on the helmet 1.

[0030] Furthermore, in the helmet 1 according to this embodiment, a clamping portion 13a is formed on one side of the holding portion 13, and an open portion is formed on the other side. The band B is clamped between the clamping portion 13a and the surface of the helmet body 2. In this way, the clamping portion 13a clamps the band B, and the open portion allows the band B to be displaced, allowing the user to easily move the band B.

[0031] Furthermore, in the helmet 1 according to this embodiment, the holding member 10 is formed with a cover portion 14 that covers at least a part of the clip portion 11. This cover portion 14 can prevent damage to the clip portion 11 due to an external impact.

[0032] Furthermore, in the helmet 1 according to this embodiment, the holding portion 13 is formed above the clip portion 11 and the cover portion 14, and an inclined surface 14a is formed on the upper portion of the cover portion 14. As a result, the inclined surface 14a guides the band B when the band B is inserted into the inside of the holding portion 13 from below, making it possible to easily attach the band B to the helmet 1.
