Abstract
A helmet attachment device includes an attachment device for a helmet, the attachment device comprising a clamp including means forming a “u” shaped lower section for receiving a portion of the helmet, wherein the clamp includes an exterior; and a cam pivotally mounted to the clamp for movement between a released and clamped position to respectively disengage and engage the attachment device to the helmet.
Claims9
An attachment device for a helmet, the attachment device comprising:
- a clamp comprising an exterior section, an interior section, and a lower section joining the exterior section to the interior section;
- and
- a cam pivotally mounted to the clamp for movement between a released and clamped position to respectively disengage and engage the attachment device to the helmet,
- wherein at least one of the exterior section and the interior section of the clamp comprises an inwardly facing protrusion extending towards a position between the exterior section and the interior section for contacting the helmet,
- wherein the cam is located on the other of the exterior section and the interior section,
- wherein the exterior section is translatable relative to the interior section for adjusting a distance between the exterior section and the interior section,
- wherein the lower section of the clamp comprises a first segment extending from the exterior section, and a second segment extending from the interior section, and
- wherein the first segment and second segment of the lower section are connectable at a plurality of locations to adjust the distance between the exterior section and the interior section.
