Abstract
The invention relates to an improved, inflatable liner for a helmet. The liner employs hook and loop fasteners for easy removal and attachment to the inner surfaces of the helmet shell. The liner incorporates a fluid impermeable enclosed volume which may be inflated with water (or air). A valve provides access to the enclosed volume. The liner is of a light-weight, open-framed, semi-hemispheric configuration which allows for air circulation. A soft material is disposed on the open frame structure creating a buffer between the wearer's head and the helmet. A soft, moisture-absorbent fabric encompasses the periphery of the liner. The absorbent fabric functions as a sweatband for absorbing perspiration and for protecting the wearer's forehead from rubbing against the helmet shell.
Description
- 1. Field of the Invention
- The present invention generally relates to protective equipment. More specifically, the present invention is drawn to a liner for protective headgear, especially a combat or policeman's helmet.
- 2. Description of the Related Art
- The Kevlar helmet is known to provide adequate protection for soldiers and police officers in life-threatening combat or law enforcement situations. However, the helmet can become uncomfortable during an extended period of wear. Such discomfort could be a distraction when it is necessary that the wearer's full attention be focused on the task at hand. One cause of discomfort is improper fit. Since heads come in various sizes, it is difficult to find the “right” helmet which will provide adequate protection and still be comfortable to wear. Another cause of discomfort is the chaffing of the helmet against the forehead of the wearer. This problem is readily evident when the helmet is removed in that a red or dark band is present on the wearer's forehead. To provide a removable, protective liner for a helmet, which liner does not change the appearance of the soldier's or policeman's uniform, which liner is inflatable to adjust for proper fit and padded in a way to enhance comfort, would be universally welcomed in the art.
- There is a plethora of prior art helmets which employ removable liners. For example U.S. Pat. No. 3,462,763 (Schneider et al.) shows protective headgear having a removable liner. Although the liner is fluid-filled, there is no means to reduce or increase the volume of fluid to adjust the liner for size and comfort.
- U.S. Pat. Nos. 3,600,714 (Cade et al.) and 5,175,889 are drawn to helmets with inflatable liners. The liners however, are permanently secured to the helmet shell and there is no structure for providing comfortable wear at the user's forehead.
- Helmets having removable, fluid-filled liners are disclosed in U.S. Pat. Nos. 3,994,022 (Villari et al.), 4,060,855 (Rappleyea), 4,014,048 (Rappleyea) and 5,014,365 (Schulz). None of the patentees contemplate incorporating structure for insuring a comfortable fit at the wearers forehead.
- U.S. Pat. No. 4,575,871 (Auerbach et al.) Shows a flexible liner used to form a water reservoir in an army helmet. The liner is not inflatable and cannot be utilized for size and comfort adjustment.
- None of the above inventions and patents, taken either singularly or in combination, is seen to disclose a fluid-filled liner for a helmet as will subsequently be described and claimed in the instant invention.
- The instant invention relates to an improved, inflatable liner for a helmet. The liner employs hook and loop fasteners for easy removal and attachment to the inner surfaces of the helmet shell. The liner incorporates a fluid impermeable volume, which volume may be inflated with water (or air). A valve provides access to the enclosed volume. Besides affording a high degree of protection against blows, impacts and the like, the inflatable liner can be adjusted to a comfortable fit.
- The liner is of a light-weight, open-framed, semi-hemispheric configuration which allows for air circulation. The liner may be inflated with cold water for desert or high temperature situations. Alternatively, warm water can be employed in cold temperature scenarios. If necessary, water from the liner can be used to slake thirst in emergency hydration situations. A soft material is disposed on the open frame structure for creating a buffer between the wearer's head and the helmet. The liner is provided with an annular rim and a soft, moisture-absorbent fabric encompasses the circumference of the annular rim. The absorbent fabric functions as a sweatband for absorbing perspiration and for protecting the wearer's forehead from rubbing against the helmet shell.
- Accordingly, it is a principal object of the invention to provide a liner for a helmet, which liner will afford a high degree of protection against impacts, blows and the like.
- It is another object of the invention to provide a liner for a helmet, which liner incorporates a hydraulic cushioning assembly.
- It is a further object of the invention to provide a liner for a helmet, which liner can be removably attached to the inner surfaces of the helmet.
- Still another object of the invention is to provide a liner for a helmet, which liner can be adjusted for size and comfort.
- It is an object of the invention to provide improved elements and arrangements thereof for the purposes described which are inexpensive, dependable and fully effective in accomplishing their intended purposes.
- These and other objects of the present invention will become readily apparent upon further review of the following specification and drawings.
- FIG. 1 is an environmental, exploded, perspective view of a helmet and liner according to the present invention.
- FIG. 2 is a plan view of an assembled helmet and liner according to the present invention.
- Similar reference characters denote corresponding features consistently throughout the attached drawings.
- Attention is directed to FIGS. 1 and 2 of the drawings wherein the liner of the present invention is generally indicated at10. As noted above,
liner 10 is adapted for insertion into a combat-type helmet H. Helmet H is of the conventional Kevlar type used by combat troops and law enforcement officers and is not, per se, part of the inventive concept. Liner 10 is fabricated from a soft, durable, fluid-impermeable rubber or plastic material and is configured as a semi-hemispherical, open-framed member having a continuous, circumferential, lowerhollow rim 12.Hollow spokes 14 are spaced aroundrim 12 and extend upwardly therefrom. There are no spokes in the ear area of the liner to allow for better air circulation and to prevent concussion from heavy blows or explosions. As contemplated, the spokes will be set one to two inches in from of and behind the ear area.Spokes 14 terminate at their upper ends in an upper, hollow dome-shaped member 16.Hollow rim 12,hollow spokes 14 andhollow member 16 are in fluid communication wherebyliner 10 may be inflated with water. Although water is the preferred inflation medium, it should be noted that other suitable fluids such as air may be utilized if desired. A valve 18 (shown in phantom lines) positioned on the under side ofmember 16 communicates with the hollow interior ofliner 10 to permit the fluid to be added or extracted from the liner without removing the liner from the helmet. A softflexible material 20 is disposed to cover the interior area ofliner 10.Material 20 may be of any suitable type (cotton, nylon, etc.) and is positioned so that inner surfaces thereof will form a buffer between the wearer's head and theliner 10. A series of hook andloop type fasteners 22 are positioned on the outer surfaces ofspokes material 14 andrim 12.Rim 12 is completely covered by amoisture absorbing fabric 24. - In use, liner water is added to inflate
liner 10 to adjust the liner to the head size and comfort level of the wearer. The liner is then inserted in helmet H so that hook andloop fasteners 22 are mated with their counterparts (not shown) mounted on the inner surface of the helmet. As noted above, wearing comfort is greatly enhanced sincematerial 20 will act as a buffer between the liner and the head of a wearer andmoisture absorbing fabric 24 will cushion the wearer's forehead from direct contact withrim 12 and absorb perspiration to keep the same from dripping into the wearer's eyes. - Although described as usable with a combat-type helmet, it is evident that the instant invention could easily be adapted to other protective head wear such as helmets for cyclists, skaters, skiers, etc.
- It is to be understood that the present invention is not limited to the embodiment described above, but encompasses any and all embodiments within the scope of the following claims.
