A weight compensating bracket to releasably and pivotably mount a protective face shield to a helmet. The bracket has an adapter, which places the pivot of the cap bracket to which the face shield is mounted, rearwardly from the releasable connector to the helmet, enabling the face shield to be well balanced when in the stowed position above the helmet.

Provided is a coupling structure of a visor hinge for a headband to connect a protective mask, which is configured to cover the wearer's face along with a viewing window, to both sides of a headband which assists the wearer in wearing the protective mask. The coupling structure includes base molds protruding from both sides of the headband, a slider located outward of each of the base molds, a button located outward of the slider, a stopper located outward of the button, and a hinge located outward of the stopper. Accordingly, it may be possible to easily adjust an angle and a distance of the protective mask with respect to the headband using the hinge, and the welding mask may be used more conveniently.

A visor arrangement, in particular for a safety helmet. The visor arrangement includes at least one protective panel element for at least partially protecting a face of a wearer and at least one additional protective grid element which can be secured locally to the at least one protective panel element in order to protect the at least one protective panel element.

The present disclosure relates to a rotating means for a helmet, and the rotating means for the helmet according to the present invention comprises a rotary shaft (100) which allows a shield (30) to be rotatably coupled to a helmet body (10) so that an opening portion (20) of the helmet body (10) is opened/closed by the shield (30), and when the shield (30) is rotated in the direction of closing the opening portion (20), the rotary shaft (100) is moved to the rear direction with respect to the helmet body (10).

A shield lock mechanism for attachment to a shell includes a holding member configured to be moved by an external operation between a holding position at which a shield is held and an attachment-detachment position at which the shield can be attached or detached, a biasing member configured to constantly bias the holding member toward the holding position, and a restriction member configured to be moved by an external operation between a restricting position at which movement of the holding member arranged at the holding position is restricted and a cancelling position at which the restriction is cancelled.

A work or sports protective helmet, with a structure having a substantially convex outer surface; a substantially concave inner surface adapted to receive a user's head in engagement is provided. The helmet also has two coupling and decoupling elements for engagement an accessory, such as a visor, a mask, a net or a similar accessory, each of which can be engaged on a lateral portion of the outer surface of structure. Each coupling and decoupling element can be removed from the helmet and has a body having a coupling mechanism which allows the engagement and the disengagement of the accessory to/from the helmet when the coupling and decoupling elements are engaged on the latter.

A chin guard support mechanism includes first and second fixed-side members, and a moving-side member fixed to the chin guard. When the chin guard pivots forward from a down position in a rising direction, an annular following surface provided on the moving-side member pivots forward while following an annular followed surface provided on the second fixed-side member to make the chin guard rise while moving forward. It is possible to provide a helmet that allows the chin guard support mechanism capable of relatively excellently raising/lowering the chin guard to have a simple structure, allows to operate the chin guard support mechanism smoothly, obviates the necessity of making the structure in a region including an end of the chin guard including the chin guard support mechanism and a vicinity thereof bulky, and obviates the necessity of making the widthwise size of the helmet large.

A helmet includes a protective shell, a monocular eyepiece and a mounting element. The monocular eyepiece displays an image signal to a wearer of the helmet. The eyepiece includes an electronic input configured to input the image signal and at least one mechanical connector. The mounting element is mechanically connected to the protective shell and to the monocular eyepiece, and is shaped to allow the monocular eyepiece to slide along the mounting element and to be secured in front of a wearer's right eye or left eye.

A visor assembly for a helmet includes a helmet cover configured to couple to a helmet, a visor pivotably coupled to the helmet cover and configured to selectively pivot between a stowage position and one or more usage positions relative to the helmet cover, and a latching mechanism coupled to the visor. The latching mechanism includes a first pawl configured to rotate between a locked position and an unlocked position. The latching mechanism is further configured to releasably lock the visor in one or more of the stowage position and the one or more usage positions.

An arrangement has an adjustable face shield and a face shield holding mechanism for connection to a headgear base body as well as an adjustable object holding device associated with the face shield. The object holding device has a coupling mechanism for coupling to the headgear base body and an object holding mechanism arranged on the coupling mechanism, and is swivelable in its entirety about a first axis. The face shield and the object holding device is adjustable independently of each other. The first axis coincides with a face shield adjustment axis.
