Abstract
A helmet includes an outer shell and a visor. The outer shell has a first plurality of coupling elements. The visor has a leading edge, a trailing edge, and an inner surface extending between the leading edge and the trailing edge. The visor includes a second plurality of coupling elements and a support. The second plurality of coupling element are disposed along the inner surface and positioned to selectively engage with the first plurality of coupling element to releasably couple the visor to the outer shell. The support extends from the inner surface of the visor and is positioned to engage with the outer shell
Claims20
A helmet, comprising:
- an outer shell having a first plurality of coupling elements;
- and
- a visor having a leading edge, a trailing edge, and an inner surface extending between the leading edge and the trailing edge, the visor including:
- a second plurality of coupling elements disposed along the inner surface and positioned to selectively engage with the first plurality of coupling element to releasably couple the visor to the outer shell;
- and
- a support extending from the inner surface of the visor, the support having a surface that is configured to correspond to a portion of an outer surface of the outer shell and engage with the outer shell.
A visor for a helmet, comprising:
- an inner surface;
- a first coupling element positioned on a first lateral side of the inner surface;
- a second coupling element positioned on an opposing second lateral side of the inner surface;
- a central support disposed along a midline of the visor and extending from the inner surface, the central support defining a central interface having a third coupling element;
- a first lateral support extending from the inner surface and positioned between the first coupling element and the central support;
- and
- a second lateral support extending from the inner surface and positioned between the second coupling element and the central support.
A visor for a helmet, comprising:
- a leading edge;
- a trailing edge;
- an inner surface extending between the leading edge and the trailing edge;
- a plurality of coupling elements disposed along the inner surface, the plurality of coupling elements positioned to selectively engage with corresponding coupling elements disposed on a shell of the helmet to releasably couple the visor to the helmet;
- and
- a support extending from the inner surface of the visor, the support having a surface that is configured to correspond to a portion of an outer surface of the outer shell, and engage with the shell when the visor is coupled to the helmet.
