Problems solved by technology

This can make the manufacture of such helmets more complicated and more expensive
Also, where the chin guard is designed to be removable by the wearer, each of these numerous, strong linkages may require additional mechanisms to release
Finally, because traditional helmets rely on multiple discrete points of attachment to absorb impact forces, some types of impact are absorbed better than others; many traditional helmets have limited resistance to head-on impact

Abstract

A helmet comprising an outer shell and a chin bar collar is disclosed. The outer shell comprises an interior surface and an open front portion. The chin bar collar comprises a chin guard and a collarsegment forming a continuous loop. The collar segment is coupled to the interior surface of the outer shell. A majority of the collar segment is positioned within an interior space of the outer shell,and a majority of the chin guard is positioned outside the interior space of the outer shell. The outer shell may include at least two coupling points, at least one on each side of the open front portion, coupling the chin bar collar to the outer shell. The helmet may include at least one bracket coupled to the interior surface of the outer shell. The chin bar collar may be releasably coupled tothe interior surface of the outer shell.

Description

[0001] Related Patent Applications [0002] This application claims the benefit of US Provisional Patent Application 62 / 245,775, filed October 23, 2015, entitled "Helmet Having a Looped ChinBar," the entire disclosure of which is hereby incorporated by reference. technical field [0003] Aspects of this document relate generally to helmets with chin guards. Background technique [0004] Protective headgear and helmets are used in a wide variety of sports, athletics, competitions and activities. Some sports require more protection than others, especially activities involving high speeds in obstacle-filled environments, such as downhill racing or off-road motoring. Many participants at these events wear full-face helmets, meaning the helmet has a chin guard. [0005] Many conventional helmets with chin guards are bolted or otherwise attached to the chin guard at the front of the helmet. Other helmets, such as those disclosed in US Patent Application 14 / 642,287, entitled "En...
