Definitions
- the invention relates to the field of helmets intended for aircraft pilots.
- the invention particularly relates to helmets equipped with visualization equipment, such as night vision devices.
- these helmets must have a reduced volume and a minimum and balanced mass, having a center of gravity whose position is optimized, in order to limit the risk of injury to the driver during an emergency ejection and limit the fatigue of the driver. pilot during long-term missions.
- these helmets include a visor which must protect the pilot, in flight or during an ejection.
- the visor must necessarily be in the lowered position, in front of the pilot's face, during the take-off and landing phases.
- the visor During an ejection, the visor must be folded automatically to protect the face of the driver.
- the visor must be locked in the down position for the helmet has a good resistance to windblast (aerodynamic shock at the time of ejection).
- these helmets must be able to be used for long-term missions, which can take place both day and night.
- the helmets must therefore be equipped with a night vision device, a clear visor and an attempted visor.
- these helmets are usually customized according to the morphology of the driver's head.
- the display equipment must generally be adjusted and positioned precisely according to the eyes of the pilot.
- US 5,416,315 discloses a helmet comprising a shell and a visor provided with a compact night vision device.
- the visor is rotatably mounted on the hull between a lowered position, in which the night vision device extends in front of the pilot's eyes, and a raised position, in which the night vision device extends over the pilot's face.
- the helmet When the visor equipped with the night vision device is in the raised position, the helmet has a large footprint.
- the space available under the cockpit canopy is generally not sufficient to allow the pilot to raise the visor equipped with the night vision device or allow mobility of the pilot's head.
- An object of the invention is to allow the pilot to position the visor of the helmet in the raised position (including a visor provided with a display equipment).
- a device for attaching a visor to a helmet shell the device being able to allow movement of the visor with respect to the shell between a lowered position and a position raised, comprising a connecting element between the visor and the shell, the connecting element being adapted to be rotatably mounted relative to the shell around a first axis of rotation, and means for guiding the movement of the visor between the lowered position and the raised position, characterized in that the connecting element is further adapted to be rotatably mounted relative to the visor about a second axis of rotation.
- the connecting member is rotatably mounted about a second axis of rotation, the movement of the visor can be guided to obtain a raised position having a small footprint.
- the movement of the visor can be guided so that the visor tilts backwards when it is raised. This clears the pilot's face while keeping the visor close to the helmet shell. Because, in the raised position, the visor is kept close to the helmet shell, the center of gravity of the helmet is little remote.
- the means for guiding the movement of the visor comprise a slider able to slide in a slide provided on the shell of the helmet,
- the slide is adapted to be rotatably mounted relative to the visor around a third axis of rotation
- the means for guiding the movement of the visor comprises a second connecting element adapted to be rotatably mounted relative to the shell about a third axis of rotation and adapted to be rotatably mounted relative to the visor around a fourth axis of rotation, the third and fourth axes of rotation being distinct from the first and second axes of rotation,
- the device comprises a support adapted to be fixed on the helmet shell, the first connecting element being rotatably mounted on the support around the first axis of rotation,
- the support comprises means for fixing the support on the helmet shell, allowing a removable attachment of the support on the helmet shell,
- the means for fixing the support on the helmet shell comprise a U-shaped element having two branches, the U-shaped element being able to receive between the two branches a pin extending from the helmet shell; and a locking element adapted to close the U-shaped element to hold the pin between the branches of the U,
- the device comprises a strip able to receive a visor, the first connecting element being rotatably mounted on the strip around the second axis of rotation,
- the headband is provided with fixing means for removably receiving additional fixing means of a visor for fixing the visor on the headband, -
- the device comprises means for locking the visor in the raised position, the means being able to release the visor in case of unprepared ejection to allow a drawdown of the visor in the lowered position,
- the device is suitable for fixing a visor equipped with a night vision device or a visor tinted day vision.
- the invention also relates to a helmet comprising a shell and a device for fixing a visor on the shell as defined above.

- the visor 200 In the lowered position (shown in FIG. 3), the visor 200 is arranged in front of the pilot's eyes so that the pilot visualises the external environment through the night vision device 201.
- the pilot can raise the visor 200 to place the visor 200 above his face, in the raised position (shown in FIG. 4).
- the visor 200 pivots about the first axis 432, which allows a release of the visor 200 relative to the pilot's face, towards the front of the helmet.
- the visor 200 also pivots about the second axis of rotation 433 and is guided during its movement by the second link 441.
- the second link 441 allows a tilting of the visor 200 towards the rear of the helmet to maintain the visor near the hull 100.
- the fixing device 400 comprises means for locking the visor 200 in the raised position, the means being able to release the visor in case of unprepared ejection.
- the visor 200 In case of unprepared ejection, the visor 200 automatically drops down to protect the face of the driver.
- Figure 5 schematically shows means for fixing the support 400 on a helmet shell 100.
- the fastening means comprise a screw 401, a cylindrical pin 402, a U-shaped member 404 and a locking member 405.
- the cylindrical pin 402 is intended to be fixed on the shell 100 of the helmet by means of the screw 401.
- the screw 401 is adapted to be received in an orifice 101 formed in the shell 100.
- LA 100 type helmets two orifices are already provided on the shell for the rotational mounting of a clear visor. These orifices can be used to fix the support 400 to the hull 100. Thus the fixing device does not require a modification of the hull of the helmet.
- the pin 402 has a radial groove 403 for receiving the U-shaped element 404.
- the LJ-shaped element 404 is adapted to receive between its two branches the pin 402.
- the locking member 405 is rotatably mounted relative to the U-shaped member 404 and is adapted to engage the U-shaped member 404 to hold the pin 402 between the legs of the U.
- the fixing means of the support 400 on the shell 100 further comprise a fastening element 407 adapted to be inserted into a groove 140 of the shell 100.
- the support 400 is therefore able to be fixed at three points on the shell of the helmet.
- the supports 300 and 400 are completely independent of the shell of the helmet. In the case of a type LA 100, these supports can be fixed without modifying the shell of the helmet, which allows to equip the helmet with the device of the invention while preserving the integrity of the hull.
