[Best Mode]
[0023] The objectives, particular advantages and new features of the present disclosure
will be apparent from the following detailed description and exemplary embodiments
in association with the accompanying drawings. In affixing the reference numbers to
the elements of each drawing in the present disclosure, it should be noted that identical
elements are given as identical numbers as possible although they are depicted in
different drawings. Additionally, the terms such as "first", "second" or the like
are used to distinguish one element from another, and the elements are not limited
by the terms. Hereinafter, in describing the present disclosure, when it is determined
that a certain description of related known technology may unnecessarily obscure the
subject matter of the present disclosure, the detailed description is omitted.
[0024] Hereinafter, exemplary embodiments of the present disclosure will be described in
detail with reference to the accompanying drawings.
[0025] FIGS. 1A and 1B are perspective views of a chin guard locking means according to
an embodiment of the present disclosure, and FIGS. 2A and 2B are exploded perspective
view of the chin guard locking means according to an embodiment of the present disclosure.
[0026] As shown in FIGS. 1 and 2, the chin guard locking means according to this embodiment
is provided in a helmet including a helmet body 10 and a chin guard 20 pivotably coupled
to the helmet body 10, and includes a first fastening portion 100 disposed on one
side of the chin guard 20, and a second fastening portion 200 disposed in the helmet
body 10 and slidably fastened to the first fastening portion 100 when the chin guard
20 is in a predetermined position.
[0027] Basically, the helmet body 10 plays a role in protecting a wearer's head. The helmet
body 10 may be made of a shock absorbing material. For example, the helmet body 10
may include an outer shell of hard synthetic resin and having high strength, and an
absorber disposed in the outer shell, made of an expanded polystyrene (EPS) foam and
having proper strength and elasticity. A pad may be present inside the absorber to
improve a snug fit.
[0028] Additionally, the chin guard 20 plays a role in protecting the wearer's chin, and
may be extended in such an arc shape as a whole that it is disposed in front of the
wearer's chin. In this instance, the chin guard 20 is pivotable from a closed position
to an open position with two ends rotatably coupled to two sides of the helmet body
10 (for example, a ratchet portion 30). For example, the chin guard 20 may pivot along
two slit portions 35 formed in the ratchet portion 30, but is not necessarily limited
thereto. On the other hand, the closed position may refer to a position when the chin
guard 20 is disposed in front of the wearer's chin (see FIG. 1A), and the open position
may refer to a position when the chin guard 20 is disposed above the helmet body 10
(see FIG. 1B).
[0029] When the chin guard 20 is disposed in the predetermined position (the open position,
above the helmet body 10), in order to prevent the chin guard 20 from arbitrarily
pivoting, the chin guard locking means is provided to lock the chin guard 20, and
the chin guard locking means includes the first fastening portion 100 and the second
fastening portion 200.
[0030] The first fastening portion 100 is disposed on one side of the chin guard 20. In
this instance, the first fastening portion 100 may protrude from the inner side of
the chin guard 20. For example, the first fastening portion 100 may be coupled and
fixed to two inner sides of the chin guard 20 by screws. Additionally, when the chin
guard 20 is in the predetermined position (the open position), one side 105 of the
first fastening portion 100 may be extended to respond to a direction in which the
second fastening portion 200 slides. Accordingly, when the chin guard 20 is in the
predetermined position (the open position), the second fastening portion 200 may slide
(see the arrow in FIG. 1B), and be fastened in contact with one side 105 of the first
fastening portion 100.
[0031] On the other hand, when the chin guard 20 is in the predetermined position (the open
position), the first fastening portion 100 may come into contact with a mounting portion
15 disposed in the helmet body 10. As described above, when the first fastening portion
100 disposed in the chin guard 20 comes into contact with the mounting portion 15
disposed in the helmet body, it may be possible to prevent the chin guard 20 from
pivoting over the predetermined position (the open position). Eventually, when the
second fastening portion 200 slides and is fastened in contact with one side 105 of
the first fastening portion 100, the first fastening portion 100 may be locked between
the second fastening portion 200 and the mounting portion 15. In this instance, the
pivoting of the chin guard 20 may be restricted.
[0032] The second fastening portion 200 is disposed in the helmet body 10, and is slidably
fastened to the first fastening portion 100 when the chin guard 20 is in the predetermined
position (the open position). For example, the second fastening portion 200 may be
slidably disposed in the ratchet portion 30 of the helmet body 10. Here, the second
fastening portion 200 may slide between a first position and a second position with
respect to the helmet body 10 (the ratchet portion 30). In this instance, when the
second fastening portion 200 is in the first position (see FIG. 3), the second fastening
portion 200 is not fastened to the first fastening portion 100, and when the second
fastening portion 200 is in the second position (see FIG. 4), the second fastening
portion 200 may be fastened to the first fastening portion 100. That is, when the
second fastening portion 200 is in the first position (see FIG. 3), the second fastening
portion 200 and the first fastening portion 100 do not interfere with each other,
thereby allowing the chin guard 20 to freely pivot. In contrast, when the chin guard
20 is in the predetermined position (the open position), in the case where the second
fastening portion 200 is in the second position (see FIG. 4), the second fastening
portion 200 may be fastened to the first fastening portion 100, and the chin guard
20 may be locked in the predetermined position (the open position). Specifically,
because the first fastening portion 100 protrudes from the inner side of the chin
guard 20, when the chin guard 20 is in the predetermined position (the open position),
as the second fastening portion 200 slides to the second position, the second fastening
portion 200 may contact one side 105 of the first fastening portion 100 and be fastened
to the first fastening portion 100. Here, the second fastening portion 200 may be
slidably moved by the wearer's force. Accordingly, when the chin guard 20 is in the
predetermined position (the open position), as the wearer moves the second fastening
portion 200 from the first position to the second position, the second fastening portion
200 may be fastened to the first fastening portion 100, and as a result, the chin
guard 20 may be locked in the predetermined position (the open position).
[0033] On the other hand, a guide portion 240 may be provided to guide the second fastening
portion 200 to slide between the first position and the second position. As shown
in FIG. 2B, the guide portion 240 may include an elongated slit portion 241 passing
through the helmet body 10 (the ratchet portion 30), an extension portion 243 extended
on the inner side of the slit portion 241 along the length direction of the slit portion
241, and a guide protrusion 245 protruded from the second fastening portion 200 and
coupled to the extension portion 243 so that it may slide along the extension portion
243. Here, the guide protrusion 245 may be coupled to the extension portion 243 and
slide along the extension portion 243, and in this instance, the slidable range of
the guide protrusion 245 may be limited to the size of the slit portion 241. As described
above, because the slidable range of the guide protrusion 245 is limited to the size
of the slit portion 241, the slidable range of the second fastening portion 200 having
the guide protrusion 245 may be also limited to the first position and the second
position.
[0034] Additionally, a locking member 300 may be provided to lock the second fastening portion
200 when the second fastening portion 200 is in the second position (see FIG. 4).
Here, the locking member 300 may be slidably coupled to the helmet body 10 (for example,
the ratchet portion 30). For example, the locking member 300 may be disposed at an
elongated groove portion 305 formed at the ratchet portion 30 in a direction perpendicular
to the second fastening portion 200, and may slide by the guidance of the groove portion
305. Accordingly, when the second fastening portion 200 moves to the second position,
the locking member 300 may slide toward the second fastening portion 200 and be coupled
to the second fastening portion 200. Specifically, the second fastening portion 200
may have an accommodation portion 220, and when the second fastening portion 200 moves
to the second position, the locking member 300 may slide toward the second fastening
portion 200 and the end of the locking member 300 may be inserted into the accommodation
portion 220 of the second fastening portion 200. As described above, when the locking
member 300 is inserted into the accommodation portion 220 of the second fastening
portion 200, the second fastening portion 200 may be kept locked in the second position
by the locking member 300.
[0035] On the other hand, a second pressing member 310 may be provided to press the locking
member 300 toward the second fastening portion 200. In this instance, the second pressing
member 310 may press the locking member 300 toward the second fastening portion 200
such that one end contacts the helmet body 10 (for example, the ratchet portion 30)
and the other end contacts the locking member 300. The second pressing member 310
is not limited to a particular type, but for example, may be a compression spring.
As described above, because the second pressing member 310 presses the locking member
300 toward the second fastening portion 200, when the second fastening portion 200
moves to the second position, the locking member 300 may be automatically inserted
into the accommodation portion 220 of the second fastening portion 200 by the pressing
force of the second pressing member 310.
[0036] As described above, when the locking member 300 is pressed toward the second fastening
portion 200 by the second pressing member 310, the locking member 300 may be inserted
into the accommodation portion 220 of the second fastening portion 200 and the second
fastening portion 200 may be locked in the second position. In this instance, to move
the second fastening portion 200 to the first position again, it is necessary to remove
the locking member 300 from the accommodation portion 220 of the second fastening
portion 200. As shown in FIG. 5, when the wearer moves the locking member 300 in a
direction opposite to the direction in which the second pressing member 310 presses
(in a direction facing away from the second fastening portion 200), the locking member
300 may be decoupled from the second fastening portion 200. On the other hand, a first
pressing member 210 may be provided to press the second fastening portion 200 to the
first position. Here, the first pressing member 210 may press the second fastening
portion 200 to the first position such that one end contacts the helmet body 10 (for
example, the ratchet portion 30) and the other end contacts the inner side of the
second fastening portion 200. The first pressing member 210 is not limited to a particular
type, but for example, may be a compression spring. As described above, because the
first pressing member 210 presses the second fastening portion 200 to the first position,
when the locking member 300 is decoupled from the second fastening portion 200 (see
FIG. 5), the second fastening portion 200 may automatically move to the first position
by the first pressing member 210 (see FIG. 3). That is, when the wearer manipulates
the locking member 300 to decouple the locking member 300 from the second fastening
portion 200 (see FIG. 5), the second fastening portion 200 automatically moves to
the first position by the first pressing member 210 (see FIG. 3).
[0037] On the other hand, to allow the wearer to easily manipulate the locking member 300,
the locking member 300 may have a manipulation portion 320 protruded to be manipulated
in the direction opposite to the direction in which the second pressing member 310
presses. Accordingly, when the wearer manipulates the manipulation portion 320 to
move the locking member 300 in the direction opposite to the direction in which the
second pressing member 310 presses (in the direction facing away from the second fastening
portion 200), the locking member 300 may be easily decoupled from the second fastening
portion 200.
[0038] In addition, when the second fastening portion 200 is in the first position, the
end of the locking member 300 contacts one side of the second fastening portion 200
(see FIG. 3), and as shown in FIG. 6, when the second fastening portion 200 moves
to the second position, as the locking member 300 slides in the direction facing away
from the second fastening portion 200, the end of the locking member 300 may be separated
from one side of the second fastening portion 200. Here, one side of the second fastening
portion 200 that contacts the locking member 300 may be a protruding portion 230 protruded
to come into contact with the locking member 300. For example, the protruding portion
230 of the second fastening portion 200 may be a partition wall that defines the accommodation
portion 220 of the second fastening portion 200. As described above, when the second
fastening portion 200 is in the first position (see FIG. 3), as the end of the locking
member 300 comes into contact with one side (the protruding portion 230) of the second
fastening portion 200, the second fastening portion 200 may be locked in the first
position. However, when the second fastening portion 200 is moved from the first position
to the second position by the wearer's force (see FIG. 6), as the locking member 300
slides in the direction facing away from the second fastening portion 200, the end
of the locking member 300 may be separated from one side (the protruding portion 230)
of the second fastening portion 200. For the movement of the second fastening portion
200 from the first position to the second position by the wearer's force, the end
of the locking member 300 and one side (the protruding portion 230) of the second
fastening portion 200 that contact each other may be rounded.
[0039] On the other hand, when the second fastening portion 200 is moved from the first
position to the second position by the wearer's force (see FIG. 6), as the locking
member 300 slides in the direction facing away from the second fastening portion 200,
the second pressing member 310 may be compressed, and when the second fastening portion
200 is in the second position (see FIG. 4), the locking member 300 may be automatically
inserted into the accommodation portion 220 of the second fastening portion 200 by
the pressing force of the second pressing member 310 (see FIG. 4).
[0040] Additionally, as shown in FIG. 3, the helmet body 10 (for example, the ratchet portion
30) may have a protrusion portion 110 protruded outward, and the first fastening portion
100 may have a recess portion 120 recessed inward to match the protrusion portion
110. When the chin guard 20 is in the predetermined position (the open position),
the protrusion portion 110 formed in the helmet body 10 may be inserted into the recess
portion 120 formed in the first fastening portion 100. As described above, when the
chin guard 20 is in the predetermined position (the open position), as the protrusion
portion 110 is inserted into the recess portion 120, the chin guard 20 may be temporarily
locked in the predetermined position (the open position). However, the present disclosure
is not necessarily limited to the protrusion portion 110 formed in the helmet body
10 and the recess portion 120 formed in the first fastening portion 100, and the protrusion
portion 110 may be formed in the first fastening portion 100, and the recess portion
120 may be formed in the helmet body 10.
[Mode for Invention]
[0041] FIGS. 7 to 11 are side views showing an operation process of the chin guard locking
means according to an embodiment of the present disclosure, and the operation process
of the chin guard locking means according to an embodiment of the present disclosure
will be described with reference to FIGS. 7 to 11.
[0042] To begin with, as shown in FIG. 7, the chin guard 20 may pivot to the predetermined
position (the open position). In this instance, as the second fastening portion 200
is in the first position, the second fastening portion 200 and the first fastening
portion 100 do not interfere with each other, thereby allowing the chin guard 20 to
pivot to the predetermined position (the open position). Additionally, as the end
of the locking member 300 contacts one side (the protruding portion 230) of the second
fastening portion 200, the second fastening portion 200 may be locked in the first
position. On the other hand, as the protrusion portion 110 formed in the helmet body
10 (the ratchet portion 30) is inserted into the recess portion 120 of the first fastening
portion 100, the chin guard 20 may be temporarily locked in the predetermined position
(the open position).
[0043] Subsequently, as shown in FIGS. 8 and 9, the second fastening portion 200 may be
moved from the first position to the second position by the wearer's force. While
the second fastening portion 200 moves, as shown in FIG. 8, the end of the locking
member 300 may be pressed by one side (the protruding portion 230) of the second fastening
portion 200, and the locking member 300 may slide in the direction facing away from
the second fastening portion 200, and as a result, the end of the locking member 300
may be separated from one side (the protruding portion 230) of the second fastening
portion 200. Subsequently, as shown in FIG. 9, when the second fastening portion 200
moves to the second position, as the locking member 300 slides toward the second fastening
portion 200 by the pressing force of the second pressing member 310, the locking member
300 may be inserted into the accommodation portion 220 of the second fastening portion
200. As the locking member 300 is inserted into the accommodation portion 220 of the
second fastening portion 200, the second fastening portion 200 may be locked in the
second position. When the second fastening portion 200 is locked in the second position,
the second fastening portion 200 may contact one side 105 of the first fastening portion
100, and the second fastening portion 200 may be fastened to the first fastening portion
100. Accordingly, the chin guard 20 coupled to the first fastening portion 100 may
be locked in the predetermined position (the open position).
[0044] On the other hand, as the second fastening portion 200 is locked in the second position,
the first pressing member 210 that presses the second fastening portion 200 into the
first position is kept compressed.
[0045] Subsequently, as shown in FIG. 10, when the wearer moves the locking member 300 in
the direction opposite to the direction in which the second pressing member 310 presses
(in the direction facing away from the second fastening portion 200) by applying an
external force to the manipulation portion 320, the locking member 300 may be separated
from the accommodation portion 220 of the second fastening portion 200 and the locking
member 300 may be decoupled from the second fastening portion 200. In this instance,
as shown in FIG. 11, the second fastening portion 200 may automatically slidably move
to the first position by the pressing force of the compressed first pressing member
210.
[0046] When the second fastening portion 200 slidably moves to the first position, the locking
member 300 may move toward the second fastening portion 200 by the pressing force
of the second pressing member 310, and in this instance, the end of the locking member
300 may contact one side (the protruding portion 230) of the second fastening portion
200, and the second fastening portion 200 may be locked in the first position.
[0047] As described above, when the second fastening portion 200 moves to the first position,
the second fastening portion 200 and the first fastening portion 100 do not interfere
with each other. Accordingly, the chin guard 20 may freely pivot from the predetermined
position (the open position) toward the closed position.
[0048] While the present disclosure has been hereinabove described in detail through the
specific embodiments, this is provided to describe the present disclosure in detail,
and the present disclosure is not limited thereto, and it is obvious that modifications
or changes may be made by those having ordinary skill in the art within the technical
spirit of the present disclosure.
[0049] Such modifications and changes of the present disclosure fall in the scope of the
present disclosure, and the scope of protection of the present disclosure will be
apparent from the appended claims.
