Description

Die Erfindung betrifft einen Schutzhelm, insbesondere für Sportzwecke, insbesondere einen Fahrradhelm, Skihelm, Skaterhelm, Reithelm oder Motorradhelm, der mindestens eine Rücklichteinrichtung aufweist.The invention relates to a protective helmet, in particular for sports purposes, in particular a bicycle helmet, ski helmet, skating helmet, riding helmet or motorcycle helmet having at least one taillight device.

Schutzhelme mit Front- und Rücklichteinrichtungen sind im Stand der Technik bekannt, wobei sie sich in der Anbringung der Lichteinrichtungen an dem Helm unterscheiden. So sind beispielsweise Schutzhelme bekannt, bei denen Leuchtmittel wie Lampen oder insbesondere Leuchtdioden an der Außenseite der Helmschale befestigt oder in die Helmschale oder in den EPS-Körper des Helms (EPS = Expanded Polystyrole) integriert sind. Hierbei sind die Lichteinrichtungen in der Regel nicht abnehmbar befestigt. Des weiteren ist es im Stand der Technik bekannt, Lichteinrichtungen (insbesondere Leuchtdioden) an einem größenverstellbaren Kopfband des Schutzhelms sowie des weiteren an einem mittels eines Drehknopfs betätigbaren Größenverstellsystem des Schutzhelms anzubringen, wobei derartige Größenverstelleinrichtungen typischerweise im Bereich oder unterhalb der rückwärtigen Unterkante des Schutzhelms angeordnet sind.Protective helmets with front and rear light devices are known in the art, differing in the mounting of the light devices on the helmet. For example, protective helmets are known in which lamps such as lamps or light-emitting diodes are attached to the outside of the helmet shell or integrated into the helmet shell or in the EPS body of the helmet (EPS = Expanded Polystyrenes). In this case, the lighting devices are usually not removable attached. Furthermore, it is known in the prior art to attach light devices (in particular light-emitting diodes) to a size-adjustable headband of the protective helmet as well as to a rotary button-operated size adjustment system of the protective helmet, wherein such size adjustment devices are typically arranged in the region or below the rear lower edge of the protective helmet ,

Die bekannten Lichtsysteme haben entweder den Nachteil, dass sie aufgrund ihrer festen Verbindung und Integration mit dem Helm nicht von dem Helm lösbar und abnehmbar sind, oder sie haben im Fall einer Anbringung im Bereich von Größenverstellsystemen den Nachteil, dass sie an diesen Stellen relativ schwer zugänglich und damit schwer zu bedienen sind, wobei sie daneben einer ungehinderten Bedienung des Größenverstellsystems im Wege stehen.The known lighting systems either have the disadvantage that they are not detachable from the helmet due to their fixed connection and integration with the helmet, or they have the disadvantage that they are relatively difficult to access in the case of mounting in the size adjustment systems and thus are difficult to use, while they stand next to unimpeded operation of the size adjustment system in the way.

Ein solcher Schutzhelm ist in DE 20 2008 011 289 U1 offenbart.Such a protective helmet is in DE 20 2008 011 289 U1 disclosed.

Es ist somit eine Aufgabe der vorliegenden Erfindung, diese Nachteile des Standes der Technik zu überwinden und insbesondere einen verbesserten Schutzhelm mit einer Rücklichteinrichtung zu schaffen, die flexibel handhabbar und insbesondere von dem Helm abnehmbar ist, und die darüber hinaus für den Helmträger leicht zugänglich und leicht bedienbar ist, ohne dass andere Funktionen des Schutzhelms, wie beispielsweise die Bedienung eines Größenverstellsystems, behindert werden.It is therefore an object of the present invention to overcome these disadvantages of the prior art and in particular to provide an improved protective helmet with a taillight device that is flexible to handle and in particular removable from the helmet, and also easily accessible and light for the helmet wearer is operable without obstructing other functions of the protective helmet, such as the operation of a size adjustment system.

Diese Aufgabe wird erfindungsgemäß durch einen Schutzhelm gemäß Patentanspruch 1 gelöst. Demnach weist ein Schutzhelm, insbesondere für Sportzwecke, insbesondere ein Fahrradhelm, Skihelm, Skaterhelm, Reithelm oder Motorradhelm, der mindestens eine Rücklichteinrichtung umfasst, an seiner rückwärtigen Außenseite mindestens eine Öffnung zur Aufnahme einer Rücklichteinrichtung auf, wobei in der Öffnung eine Halterungsvorrichtung angeordnet ist, die die Rücklichteinrichtung lösbar festhält, und wobei die Halterungsvorrichtung als rückwärtige Halterung für einen Gurt ausgebildet ist, der zur Befestigung des Schutzhelms an dem Kopf des Helmträgers dient.This object is achieved by a protective helmet according to claim 1. Accordingly, a protective helmet, in particular for sports purposes, in particular a bicycle helmet, ski helmet, skating helmet, riding helmet or motorcycle helmet comprising at least one taillight device, on its rear outer side at least one opening for receiving a rear light device, wherein in the opening a mounting device is arranged, the the taillight device releasably holds, and wherein the mounting device is formed as a rear support for a belt, which serves for attachment of the protective helmet to the head of the helmet wearer.

Erfindungsgemäß ist somit vorgesehen, dass der Schutzhelm eine Rücklichteinrichtung aufweist, die in einer rückwärtigen Öffnung des Helms angeordnet ist, wobei die Rücklichteinrichtung in der Öffnung von einer Halterungsvorrichtung gehalten wird, die gleichzeitig die Funktion hat, einen Haltegurt des Helms im rückwärtigen Bereich des Helms zu halten.According to the invention it is thus provided that the protective helmet has a rear light device which is arranged in a rear opening of the helmet, wherein the rear light device is held in the opening of a holding device, which also has the function of a tether of the helmet in the rear region of the helmet hold.

Die Anbringung der Rücklichteinrichtung in einer rückwärtigen Öffnung des Helms hat einerseits den Vorteil, dass das Rücklicht in den Helm integriert und nicht an der Außenseite des Helms angebracht ist. Das Rücklicht ist somit "aufgeräumt" und steht nicht störend von dem Helm ab oder über seinen äußeren Umfang hinaus vor. Da die Rücklichteinrichtung lösbar an der Halterungsvorrichtung in der rückwärtigen Helmöffnung angebracht ist, kann sie des weiteren bei Bedarf leicht von dem Helm abgenommen werden, beispielsweise wenn sie nicht benötigt wird und der Helm ohne Rücklicht verwendet werden soll oder wenn beispielsweise die in das Gehäuse der Rücklichteinrichtung integrierte Batterie ausgetauscht werden soll. Die Anordnung der Rücklichteinrichtung in der rückwärtigen Öffnung des Helms vermeidet außerdem eine Anbringung des Rücklichts im Bereich von oder an einem Größenverstellsystem des Helms, wodurch diese verschiedenen Funktionen des Helms voneinander getrennt sind und sich nicht gegenseitig stören.The attachment of the rear light device in a rear opening of the helmet on the one hand has the advantage that the rear light is integrated into the helmet and not attached to the outside of the helmet. The tail light is thus "tidy" and does not interfere with the helmet from or beyond its outer circumference out before. Furthermore, since the taillight device is detachably attached to the retainer device in the rear helmet opening, it may be easily detached from the helmet as needed, for example, when it is not needed and the helmet is to be used without the taillight, or if, for example, the taillight device housing integrated battery should be replaced. The arrangement of the taillight device in the rear opening of the helmet also avoids attachment of the tail light in the region of or on a size adjustment system of the helmet, whereby these various functions of the helmet are separated from each other and do not interfere with each other.

Darüber hinaus wird die Rücklichteinrichtung in der rückwärtigen Helmöffnung von einer Halterungsvorrichtung gehalten, an der der Helmhaltegurt im rückwärtigen Bereich des Helms befestigt ist. Bei herkömmlichen Schutzhelmen ist der rückwärtige Befestigungspunkt des Haltegurts typischerweise in einem Bereich von Innen an dem Helmkörper angebracht oder in diesen integriert, in dem sich bei dem erfindungsgemäßen Schutzhelm die rückwärtige Öffnung befindet. Die rückwärtige Befestigung des Haltegurts wird erfindungsgemäß also in die rückwärtige Öffnung hinein verlegt, wobei dort eine Halterungsvorrichtung vorgesehen ist, die gleichzeitig zur Befestigung des Gurts und zur Halterung des Rücklichts dient. Es ist damit nicht mehr erforderlich, einerseits eine Befestigungseinrichtung für den Gurt und getrennt davon andererseits eine Halterungsvorrichtung für das Rücklicht vorzusehen. Die Gurtbefestigungseinrichtung ist der Rücklichtbefestigungseinrichtung im rückwärtigen Bereich des Helms somit auch nicht im Wege (und umgekehrt). Vielmehr sind diese beiden Funktionen erfindungsgemäß ineinander integriert.In addition, the rear light device is held in the rear helmet opening by a mounting device to which the helmet seat belt is attached in the rear region of the helmet. In conventional protective helmets, the rear attachment point of the tether is typically mounted in or integrated with an interior region of the helmet body in which the rear opening is located in the protective helmet of the present invention. The rear attachment of the tether according to the invention thus laid in the rear opening, where there is a mounting device is provided, which also serves to fasten the belt and for holding the tail light. It is therefore no longer necessary on the one hand to provide a fastening device for the belt and, on the other hand, separate from it a mounting device for the tail light. The belt fastening device is thus also not in the way of the rear light fastening device in the rear region of the helmet (and vice versa). Rather, these two functions are inventively integrated into each other.

Gemäß einer Weiterbildung der Erfindung ist vorgesehen, dass die Halterungsvorrichtung in der rückwärtigen Öffnung des Helms Befestigungsmittel aufweist, mit denen sie in dem Körper des Helms befestigt ist, und dass die Halterungsvorrichtung als Widerlager für den Gurt derart ausgebildet ist, dass eine bei einer Zugbelastung des Gurts in der Halterungsvorrichtung auftretende Energie in dem Körper des Schutzhelms absorbiert wird. Zu diesem Zwecke weist die Halterungsvorrichtung insbesondere einen Querträger auf, an dessen beiden seitlichen Enden Befestigungsansätze angeordnet sind, mit denen die Halterungsvorrichtung in Seitenbereichen der rückwärtigen Öffnung in dem Helmkörper befestigt ist. Der Querträger weist vorzugsweise eine Öffnung auf, durch die sich der Gurt erstreckt und die derart ausgebildet ist, dass der Gurt bei einer unter einem bestimmten Winkel auftretenden Zugbelastung in dem Querträger festgeklemmt wird. Die Befestigungsansätze an dem Querträger sind insbesondere hakenartig ausgebildet und für die Befestigung der Halterungsvorrichtung in dem Helmkörper verankert. Die Öffnung in dem Querträger verläuft vorzugsweise mit einem schlitzartigen Profil in der Längsrichtung des Querträgers.According to one embodiment of the invention, it is provided that the support device in the rear opening of the helmet has fastening means with which it is fixed in the body of the helmet, and that the support device is designed as an abutment for the belt such that at a tensile load of the Gurts absorbed in the holder device energy is absorbed in the body of the protective helmet. For this purpose, the mounting device has in particular a cross member, at the two lateral ends fastening lugs are arranged, with which the mounting device is mounted in side regions of the rear opening in the helmet body. The cross member preferably has an opening through which the belt extends and which is formed such that the belt is clamped at a tensile stress occurring at a certain angle in the cross member. The attachment lugs on the cross member are in particular hook-like and anchored for the attachment of the support device in the helmet body. The opening in the cross member preferably extends with a slot-like profile in the longitudinal direction of the cross member.

Gemäß einer weiteren Ausführungsform der Erfindung weist die Rücklichteinrichtung ein Gehäuse auf, an dessen Außenseite eines oder mehrere Leuchtmittel, insbesondere Leuchtdioden (LEDs), angeordnet sind. An dem Gehäuse sind Halteeinrichtungen vorgesehen, insbesondere in Form von Vorsprüngen oder Vertiefungen, die in an dem Querträger der Halterungsvorrichtung ausgebildete korrespondierende Halteeinrichtungen, insbesondere in Form von Vorsprüngen oder Vertiefungen, eingreifen, um die Rücklichteinrichtung an der Halterungsvorrichtung zu befestigen. Die Halteeinrichtungen an dem Gehäuse und/oder dem Querträger der Halterungsvorrichtung sind dabei vorzugsweise aus einem Material hergestellt, insbesondere einem Kunststoffmaterial, das eine Flexibilität oder Elastizität derart aufweist, dass die Halteeinrichtungen des Gehäuses lösbar in den Querträger eingreifen können, also dort insbesondere einrasten. Diese Eingriffsverbindung zwischen den Halteeinrichtungen des Gehäuses und dem Querträger der Halterungsvorrichtung gestattet es somit, dass die Rücklichteinrichtung von der Halterungsvorrichtung gelöst und damit aus der Helmöffnung entnommen werden kann.According to a further embodiment of the invention, the rear light device has a housing, on the outside of which one or more light sources, in particular light-emitting diodes (LEDs), are arranged. On the housing holding means are provided, in particular in the form of projections or depressions which engage in formed on the cross member of the holding device corresponding holding means, in particular in the form of projections or recesses, to secure the backlight device to the mounting device. The holding devices on the housing and / or the cross member of the holding device are preferably made of a material, in particular a plastic material having a flexibility or elasticity such that the holding means of the housing can detachably engage in the cross member, so there in particular engage. This engagement connection between the holding means of the housing and the cross member of the mounting device thus allows the rear light device can be detached from the mounting device and thus removed from the helmet opening.

Gemäß einer weiteren Ausführungsform der Erfindung weist das Gehäuse der Rücklichteinrichtung eine äußere Form auf, die im Wesentlichen der Form der rückwärtigen Öffnung des Helms entspricht, so dass die Rücklichteinrichtung relativ passgenau und formschlüssig in die Öffnung eingesetzt werden kann. Das Rücklichtgehäuse ist dabei im Wesentlichen bündig mit der Kontur der Außenseite des Helms in der Öffnung angeordnet, das heißt, die Linienführung des Rücklichtgehäuses entspricht in etwa der Linienführung der Helmaußenseite. Dadurch wird gewährleistet, dass das Rücklicht im Wesentlichen nicht über die Helmoberfläche hinausragt und insbesondere nicht störend von dem Helm absteht. Nicht zuletzt dient die Abstimmung und Anpassung der Linienführung und äußeren Form des Rücklichts an die Linienführung und Formgebung der äußeren Rückseite des Helms auch einem ästhetischen, optisch ansprechenden Erscheinungsbild und Design.According to a further embodiment of the invention, the housing of the taillight device has an outer shape which substantially corresponds to the shape of the rear opening of the helmet, so that the taillight device can be inserted into the opening in a relatively precise fit and with a positive fit. The rear light housing is arranged substantially flush with the contour of the outside of the helmet in the opening, that is, the lines of the rear light housing corresponds approximately to the lines of the helmet outside. This ensures that the tail light substantially does not project beyond the helmet surface and in particular does not protrude distractingly from the helmet. Last but not least, the coordination and adaptation of the lines and outer shape of the tail light to the lines and shaping of the outer back of the helmet also provides an aesthetic, visually appealing appearance and design.

Fig. 1 zeigt zunächst einen Schutzhelm 10 für Sportzwecke in einer perspektivischen Ansicht von schräg hinten, insbesondere einen Fahrradhelm. Der Schutzhelm 10 weist mittig hinten eine Öffnung 12 auf, die vorzugsweise einen vollständigen Durchgang von der Helmaußenseite zu der Helminnenseite bildet. In einer besonderen Ausführungsform kann die Öffnung 12 aber auch nur so auf der Helmrückseite ausgebildet sein, dass sie zur Helminnenseite hin geschlossen ist und somit keinen Durchgang von der Helmaußenseite zur Innenseite bildet. Fig. 1 first shows a protective helmet 10 for sports purposes in a perspective view obliquely from behind, in particular a bicycle helmet. The protective helmet 10 has in the center behind an opening 12, which preferably forms a complete passage from the helmet outside to the helmet side. In a particular embodiment, however, the opening 12 may also be formed only on the helmet back, that it is closed to the helmet inner side and thus does not form a passage from the helmet outside to the inside.

Die Öffnung 12 dient zur Aufnahme einer Rücklichteinrichtung 30, die in die Öffnung 12 eingesetzt und aus dieser entnommen werden kann. In der Öffnung 12 ist eine Halterungsvorrichtung 20 angeordnet, die das Rücklicht 30 aufnimmt und insbesondere derart festhält, dass es bei einer Benutzung des Helms nicht aus der Öffnung 12 herausfallen kann. Letzteres ist insbesondere wichtig, wenn der Helm für Sportzwecke verwendet wird, wie beispielsweise Radfahren oder Skifahren. Die Öffnung 12 ist in ihrer Formgebung so gestaltet, dass das Rücklicht leicht zugänglich ist, um es im eingesetzten Zustand ein- bzw. ausschalten zu können und um es aus der Öffnung entnehmen zu können.The opening 12 serves to receive a rear light device 30, which can be inserted into the opening 12 and removed therefrom. In the opening 12, a holding device 20 is arranged, which receives the rear light 30 and in particular holds such that it can not fall out of the opening 12 when using the helmet. The latter is particularly important when the helmet is used for sports purposes, such as cycling or skiing. The opening 12 is designed in its shape so that the tail light is easily accessible to turn it on or off in the inserted state and to be able to remove it from the opening can.

Die Halterungsvorrichtung 20 in der rückwärtigen Helmöffnung 12 ist gleichzeitig auch als rückwärtige Halterung oder als Widerlager für einen Gurt (nicht dargestellt) ausgebildet, der zur Befestigung des Helms an dem Kopf des Helmträgers typischerweise von der Innenseite des Helms um das Kinn des Helmträgers herum verläuft. Üblicherweise sind derartige Helmhaltegurte an drei Punkten an der Innenseite des Helms befestigt, nämlich jeweils seitlich oder seitlich vorne im Bereich der Schläfen oder der Ohren des Helmträgers sowie mittig an der rückwärtigen Helminnenwand.The retainer device 20 in the rear helmet opening 12 is also designed as a rear support or as an abutment for a belt (not shown), which typically extends from the inside of the helmet around the chin of the helmet wearer for attachment of the helmet to the head of the helmet wearer. Usually, such Helmhaltegurte are attached to three points on the inside of the helmet, namely either laterally or laterally forward in the region of the temples or the ears of the helmet wearer and the center of the rear helmet inner wall.

Dieser zuletzt genannte hintere, mittige Gurtbefestigungspunkt ist bei dem Helm der vorliegenden Erfindung nun in Form der in der Öffnung 12 vorgesehenen Halterungsvorrichtung 20 ausgeführt. Hierbei ist die Halterungsvorrichtung 20 insbesondere in der Form eines im Wesentlichen horizontal oder quer verlaufenden Trägers oder Stegs 22 ausgebildet. Dieser Querträger 22 ist als solcher in Fig. 3 in einem nicht in den Helm eingebauten Zustand dargestellt.This latter rear, central belt attachment point is now embodied in the form of the mounting device 20 provided in the opening 12 in the helmet of the present invention. In this case, the holding device 20 is designed in particular in the form of a substantially horizontally or transversely extending carrier or web 22. This cross member 22 is as such in Fig. 3 shown in a state not installed in the helmet.

Der Steg oder Querträger 22 weist an seinen beiden seitlichen Enden jeweils einen Befestigungsansatz 24 auf, mit dem er an dem jeweiligen Ende innerhalb der Öffnung 12 und insbesondere in den Seitenbereichen der Öffnung 12 in dem Körper des Schutzhelms 10 befestigt ist. Die Befestigungsansätze 24 an den beiden seitlichen Enden des Querträgers 22 sind insbesondere derart mit einer hakenartigen oder anderen, vergleichbaren Struktur ausgebildet, dass sie im Zuge der Herstellung des Schutzhelms in das EPS-Material des Körpers des Schutzhelms eingeschäumt werden können und am Ende somit eine stabile Verankerung des Querträgers 22 in dem Helmkörper gewährleisten.The web or cross member 22 has at its two lateral ends in each case a fastening lug 24, with which it is fastened at the respective end within the opening 12 and in particular in the side regions of the opening 12 in the body of the protective helmet 10. The attachment lugs 24 at the two lateral ends of the cross member 22 are in particular designed with a hook-like or other, comparable structure that they can be foamed in the course of the production of the helmet in the EPS material of the body of the helmet and at the end thus a stable Ensure anchoring of the cross member 22 in the helmet body.

Der Steg oder Querträger 22 weist des Weiteren eine in seiner Längsrichtung verlaufende Öffnung 28 bzw. einen entsprechenden Schlitz auf, durch die bzw. den der Haltegurt hindurchgeführt wird. Die Öffnung bzw. der Schlitz 28 ist dabei mit einem Profil derart ausgebildet, dass der durch ihn hindurch laufende Gurt bei einer unter einem bestimmen Winkel auftretenden Zugbelastung in dem Querträger 22 festgeklemmt wird, während der Gurt bei einer unter einem anderen Winkel wirkenden Zugbelastung locker durch die schlitzartige Öffnung 28 hindurch gezogen werden kann.The web or cross member 22 further has an opening 28 extending in its longitudinal direction or a corresponding slot through which the tether is passed. The opening or the slot 28 is formed with a profile such that the running through it belt is clamped at a occurring at a certain angle tensile load in the cross member 22, while the belt loosely at a tensile load acting at a different angle the slot-like opening 28 can be pulled through.

Aufgrund dieser besonderen Ausführung des Querträgers 22 mit der in Längsrichtung verlaufenden profilierten Schlitzöffnung 28 und den beiden jeweils seitlich angeordneten Befestigungsansätzen 24 dient der Querträger 22 insgesamt als Anlenkpunkt und als Widerlager für den Gurt an der mittigen Rückseite des Helms. Mittels dieser besonderen Ausführungsform des Querträgers 22 kann er im Falle einer Belastung des Helms bei einem Unfall des Helmträgers dafür sorgen, dass die stoßartig über den Gurt an diese Stelle eingeleitete Energie über die Befestigungsansätze 24 in den EPS-Körper des Helms eingeleitet und dort aufgenommen wird, wobei der Gurt gleichzeitig in dem Querschlitz 28 festgeklemmt wird. Dadurch wird ein Widerstand derart verursacht, dass der Helm sicher an dem Kopf seines Trägers befestigt bleibt und damit seine Schutzfunktion erfüllt. Die Halterungsvorrichtung 20 in Form des Querträgers 22 dient damit also nicht lediglich zur Befestigung des Gurts hinten mittig an der Helminnenseite, sondern in "intelligenter" Weise insbesondere als energieabsorbierendes Widerlager für den Gurt.Due to this particular embodiment of the cross member 22 with the longitudinally profiled slot opening 28 and the two laterally arranged fastening lugs 24 of the cross member 22 serves as a total articulation point and as an abutment for the belt at the central back of the helmet. By means of this particular embodiment of the cross member 22, it can in case of a load of the helmet in an accident of the helmet wearer ensure that the jerky initiated via the belt at this point energy is introduced via the attachment lugs 24 in the EPS body of the helmet and recorded there wherein the belt is simultaneously clamped in the transverse slot 28. As a result, a resistance is caused so that the helmet remains securely attached to the head of his wearer and thus fulfills its protective function. The support device 20 in the form of the cross member 22 thus serves not only for attachment of the belt rear center on the helmet side, but in a "smart" way in particular as an energy absorbing abutment for the belt.

Ein wesentliches Merkmal der Erfindung ist es, dass die Halterungsvorrichtung 20 neben der vorstehend geschilderten Befestigung des Gurts gleichzeitig auch zur Aufnahme und Halterung des Rücklichts 30 dient. Zu diesem Zweck weist der Querträger 22 Vorsprünge oder Vertiefungen 26 auf, die mit entsprechend ausgebildeten, korrespondierenden Vorsprüngen oder Vertiefungen 34, 36 an der Rücklichteinrichtung 30 zusammenwirken. Dabei greifen diese beiderseitigen Vorsprünge oder Vertiefungen derart ineinander ein, dass die Rücklichteinrichtung 30 fest und sicher, aber dennoch lösbar an der Halterungsvorrichtung 20 befestigt werden kann.An essential feature of the invention is that the mounting device 20 in addition to the above-described attachment of the belt at the same time also serves to receive and support the rear light 30. For this purpose, the cross member 22nd Projections or recesses 26 which cooperate with correspondingly formed, corresponding projections or depressions 34, 36 on the rear light device 30. In this case, these mutual projections or depressions engage with each other in such a way that the taillight device 30 can be firmly and securely, but nevertheless releasably secured to the mounting device 20.

Insbesondere weist die Rücklichteinrichtung 30 ein Gehäuse 32 auf, an dessen Unterseite Halteeinrichtungen 34 angeordnet sind, mit denen das Gehäuse 32 und damit das Rücklicht 30 insgesamt an der Halterungsvorrichtung 20 angebracht werden kann. Die Halteeinrichtungen 34 bestehen in geeigneter Weise aus Vorsprüngen oder Haltenasen 36, die so ausgebildet sind, dass sie klammerartig, flexibel und elastisch in die korrespondierenden Vorsprünge oder Vertiefungen 26 eingreifen, die an dem Querträger 22 der Halterungsvorrichtung 20 ausgebildet sind.In particular, the rear light device 30 has a housing 32, on the underside holding means 34 are arranged, with which the housing 32 and thus the tail light 30 can be mounted on the mounting device 20 in total. The holding means 34 suitably consist of projections or retaining lugs 36, which are designed such that they engage in the corresponding protrusions or recesses 26, which are formed on the cross member 22 of the holding device 20 in a clamp-like, flexible and elastic manner.

Damit dieser Eingriff zwischen den Vorsprüngen bzw. Vertiefungen 26 des Querträgers 22 und den Vorsprüngen oder Haltenasen 36 des Gehäuses 32 ausreichend haltbar und fest, aber andererseits reversibel und lösbar ist, sind die Halteeinrichtungen 34, 36 an dem Gehäuse 32 und/oder der Querträger 22 und insbesondere seine Vorsprünge oder Vertiefungen 26 aus einem Material gebildet, insbesondere einem Kunststoffmaterial, das diese erforderliche Elastizität und Flexibilität der ineinander eingreifenden Komponenten bewerkstelligt.For this engagement between the projections or recesses 26 of the cross member 22 and the projections or retaining lugs 36 of the housing 32 sufficiently durable and strong, but on the other hand reversible and detachable, the holding means 34, 36 on the housing 32 and / or the cross member 22nd and in particular its projections or depressions 26 formed of a material, in particular a plastic material, which accomplishes this required elasticity and flexibility of the intermeshing components.

In der in den Figuren dargestellten Ausführungsform der Rücklichteinrichtung 30 sind die Halteeinrichtungen 34 im Wesentlichen an der Unterseite des Gehäuses 32 angeordnet, so dass das Rücklicht im wesentlichen von oben auf die Halterungsvorrichtung 20 aufgesetzt wird (wie es in Fig. 1 dargestellt ist). In anderen Ausführungsformen ist es aber auch denkbar, dass die Halteeinrichtungen 34 an anderen geeigneten Stellen des Gehäuses 32 angeordnet sind, beispielsweise an seiner Oberseite oder seiner Rückseite (d.h. der in Fahrtrichtung vorderen Seite des Gehäuses). In entsprechender Weise wird das Rücklichtgehäuse 32 dann von unten oder von hinten auf die Halterungsvorrichtung 20 aufgesetzt. Insbesondere bei einer Anbringungsrichtung von unten nach oben müssen die Halteeinrichtungen 34 an dem Gehäuse 32 so ausgebildet sein, dass das Gehäuse fest an der Halterungsvorrichtung 20 gehalten wird und nicht herunter fällt.In the embodiment of the taillight device 30 shown in the figures, the holding devices 34 are arranged essentially on the underside of the housing 32, so that the rear light is placed essentially from above on the mounting device 20 (as shown in FIG Fig. 1 is shown). In other Embodiments, it is also conceivable that the holding means 34 are arranged at other suitable locations of the housing 32, for example at its top or its back (ie, the front in the direction of travel of the housing). In a corresponding manner, the rear light housing 32 is then placed from below or from behind on the mounting device 20. In particular, in a mounting direction from bottom to top, the holding means 34 must be formed on the housing 32 so that the housing is firmly held on the mounting device 20 and does not fall down.

Für die gewünschte Leuchtwirkung weist die Rücklichteinrichtung 30 an der Außenseite ihres Gehäuses 32 eine oder vorzugsweise mehrere Leuchtdioden 40 auf. Die in den Figs. 3 und 4 dargestellte Rücklichteinrichtung 30 weist an der nach hinten weisenden Außenseite des Gehäuses 32 beispielhaft drei vertikal übereinander angeordnete Leuchtdioden 40 und an der seitlichen Außenseite des Gehäuses 32 zwei übereinander angeordnete Leuchtdioden 40 auf. Diese Anordnung gewährleistet eine Sichtbarkeit des von den Leuchtdioden 40 emittierten Lichts von hinten und von der Seite bzw. von seitlich hinten (vgl. Fig. 2). Es versteht sich allerdings, dass auch jede andere gewünschte Anordnung von Leuchtdioden 40 an der Rücklichteinrichtung 30 realisiert werden kann, wie beispielsweise auch eine Anordnung von mehreren Leuchtdioden 40 vertikal übereinander als "Band" auf der Rückseite des Gehäuses 32.For the desired lighting effect, the rear light device 30 on the outside of its housing 32 has one or preferably a plurality of light-emitting diodes 40. The in the Figs. 3 and 4 shown taillight device 30 has on the rearwardly facing outside of the housing 32 by way of example three vertically stacked light emitting diodes 40 and on the lateral outer side of the housing 32 two superimposed light-emitting diodes 40. This arrangement ensures visibility of the light emitted by the light-emitting diodes 40 from behind and from the side or from the side behind (cf. Fig. 2 ). It is understood, however, that any other desired arrangement of light emitting diodes 40 on the rear light device 30 can be realized, such as an arrangement of a plurality of light emitting diodes 40 vertically above each other as a "band" on the back of the housing 32nd

Die Rücklichteinrichtung 30 ist als kompakte, integrierte Funktionseinheit realisiert, die alleine für sich genommen vollständig funktionsfähig ist. Zu diesem Zwecke sind in dem Gehäuse 32 eine Steuerelektronik und mindestens eine Batterie untergebracht, und an der Außenseite des Gehäuses 32 ist ein mit den Leuchtdioden 40 sowie der Steuerelektronik und der Batterie verbundener Schalter 38 zum Ein- und Ausschalten der Leuchtdioden 40 angeordnet. Die Rücklichteinrichtung 30 benötigt somit keine externe Batterie und/oder Steuerelektronik, wodurch der Einsatz jeglicher externer Verbindungskabel vermieden wird. Aufgrund der kompakten Bauweise und der Integration aller für die Funktion erforderlichen Komponenten in das Gehäuse 32 hat die Rücklichteinrichtung 30 ein geringes Gewicht und ist somit flexibel einsetzbar und leicht bedienbar. So kann der Benutzer des Schutzhelms die Rücklichteinrichtung 30 auch ohne den Helm 10 für sich genommen verwenden, beispielsweise nach Art einer Taschenlampe.The rear light device 30 is realized as a compact, integrated functional unit, which alone is fully functional. For this purpose, a control electronics and at least one battery are housed in the housing 32, and on the outside of the housing 32 is connected to the light emitting diodes 40 and the control electronics and the battery Switch 38 for switching on and off of the LEDs 40 is arranged. The taillight device 30 thus requires no external battery and / or control electronics, whereby the use of any external connection cable is avoided. Due to the compact design and the integration of all components required for the function in the housing 32, the taillight device 30 has a low weight and is therefore flexible and easy to use. Thus, the user of the protective helmet can use the rear light device 30 even without the helmet 10 taken by itself, for example in the manner of a flashlight.

Wie insbesondere den Fig. 1 und 2 zu entnehmen ist, weist die Rücklichteinrichtung 30 insgesamt und insbesondere deren Gehäuse 32 im Wesentlichen eine äußere Form auf, die der Form der rückwärtigen Öffnung 12 des Helms 10 entspricht. Dadurch kann die Rücklichteinrichtung 30 mehr öder weniger passgenau, formschlüssig in die Öffnung 12 eingesetzt werden, wobei das Gehäuse 32 des Rücklichts mit seiner nach hinten weisenden Außenseite im Wesentlichen bündig mit der rückwärtigen Außenseite des Helms 10 in der Öffnung 12 angeordnet sein kann, das heißt der Linienführung und Kontur des Helms in seinem unteren und oberen rückwärtigen Bereich entspricht (vgl. Fig. 2). Dieses ergibt eine ästhetisch ansprechende, auch unter modischen Gesichtspunkten attraktive Erscheinungsform, wie es heute bei Trendsportarten neben technischen Funktionalitäten ebenfalls wichtig ist. Insbesondere ist das Rücklicht auf diese Weise derart in die Helmrückseite integriert, dass es nicht hinderlich über die Helmaußenseite hinausragt oder von dem Helm absteht, und dass es nicht mit anderen Funktionen des Helms kollidiert, wie beispielsweise einem bandartigen Größenverstellsystem, das üblicherweise unterhalb der rückwärtigen Unterkante des Helms angeordnet ist.As in particular the Fig. 1 and 2 can be seen, the taillight device 30 has a total and in particular the housing 32 has an outer shape substantially corresponding to the shape of the rear opening 12 of the helmet 10. As a result, the taillight device 30 can be inserted into the opening 12 more or less accurately, the housing 32 of the taillight with its rearwardly facing outer side being substantially flush with the rearward outside of the helmet 10 in the opening 12, that is to say the lines and contour of the helmet in its lower and upper rear area corresponds (see. Fig. 2 ). This results in an aesthetically pleasing appearance, which is also attractive from a fashion point of view, as is also important today for trend sports in addition to technical functionalities. In particular, the tail light in this way is integrated into the helmet back so that it does not protrude beyond the helmet outside or protrudes from the helmet, and that it does not interfere with other functions of the helmet, such as a band-like size adjustment system, usually below the rear lower edge of the helmet is arranged.

Während in den Fig. 1 bis 4 das Gehäuse 32 der Rücklichtanordnung 30 und die rückwärtige Öffnung 12 des Schutzhelms 10 eine im Wesentlichen dreieckige, nach unten zulaufende Form haben, ist es in anderen Ausführungsformen der Erfindung auch denkbar, dass die Rücklichteinrichtung 30 und die sie aufnehmende rückwärtige Öffnung 12 eine andere Form haben, beispielsweise eine im wesentlichen dreieckige, nach oben zulaufende Form, oder eine im Wesentlichen runde oder eine im Wesentlichen rechteckige Form. Darüber hinaus ist es denkbar, dass anstelle einer einzigen Rücklichteinrichtung 30, die in einer einzigen Helmöffnung 12 angeordnet wird, mehrere Rücklichter mit den ihnen entsprechenden Helmöffnungen vorgesehen sind, beispielsweise zwei nebeneinander angeordnete Rücklichter. Das oben dargestellte Prinzip der vorliegenden Erfindung kann dann ohne weiteres auf diese mehreren Rücklichter und ihre zugehörigen Helmöffnungen übertragen und angewendet werden.While in the Fig. 1 to 4 the housing 32 of the taillight assembly 30 and the rear opening 12 of the protective helmet 10 have a substantially triangular, downwardly tapered shape, it is also conceivable in other embodiments of the invention that the rear light device 30 and the receiving rear opening 12 have a different shape For example, a substantially triangular, upwardly tapered shape, or a substantially round or substantially rectangular shape. In addition, it is conceivable that instead of a single rear light device 30, which is arranged in a single helmet opening 12, a plurality of taillights are provided with their corresponding helmet openings, for example, two juxtaposed rear lights. The above-described principle of the present invention can then be readily applied and applied to these multiple taillights and their associated helmet openings.

Wie die Figs. 1 und 2 zeigen, ist die Öffnung 12 vorteilhafterweise so gestaltet, dass der an dem Rücklichtgehäuse 32 angebrachte Schalter 38 auch zugänglich ist, wenn das Rücklicht 30 in die Helmöffnung 12 eingesetzt ist. Bei der in den Figs. 1 und 2 dargestellten Ausführungsform ist die Helmöffnung 12 an ihrem oberen Ende so nach oben hin offen, dass der oben an dem Gehäuse 32 angeordnete Schalter 38 zugänglich und betätigbar ist.As the Figs. 1 and 2 show, the opening 12 is advantageously designed so that the attached to the rear light housing 32 switch 38 is also accessible when the rear light 30 is inserted into the helmet opening 12. In the in the Figs. 1 and 2 In the embodiment shown, the helmet opening 12 is open at its upper end so that the switch 38 arranged at the top of the housing 32 is accessible and actuatable.

Schließlich ist es auch denkbar, das Prinzip der vorliegenden Erfindung auf ein Frontlicht des Schutzhelms zu übertragen. Zu diesem Zwecke würde der Schutzhelm 10 eine der Öffnung 12 entsprechende Öffnung mit einer der Halterungsvorrichtung 20 entsprechenden Halterung zur Aufnahme der Lichteinrichtung an seiner Vorderseite aufweisen. Das oben Gesagte gilt dann analog auch für ein solches Frontlicht.Finally, it is also conceivable to transfer the principle of the present invention to a headlight of the protective helmet. For this purpose, the protective helmet 10 would have an opening corresponding to the opening 12 with a holder of the device 20 corresponding holder for receiving the light device on its front. The above applies analogously for such a front light.
