Abstract:
A fixing device for the windshield of a safety helmet comprising:a windshield having the inner wall of its opposite ends respectively provided with a projection, said projection having projecting wings extending outward, a projecting rib with an upper corrugated edge positioned under said projection, a slide block positioned under said projecting rib: a helmet shell having an arc-shaped window at a front side, a base plate fixed on the extending wall of the left and the right end of said window, each said base plate provided with an annular recess base, said annular recess base having an upper and a lower notch provided correspondingly in its annular wall surface, said two notches formed with an annular groove along the lower side of said annular wall surface; a projecting wall provided on each said base plate at the left side of said annular recess base and formed with a corrugated edge at a front side, a slide groove formed under said projecting wall for receiving said slide block of said windshield, a position-limiting space formed between said projecting wall and the groove wall of said slide groove; a lip edge extending from the upper end of the other groove wall of said slide groove to form an inner concave lip groove, said lip groove having a side lip opening, said side lip opening receiving a slidable lip block therein: and said windshield having said projecting wings of said projection positioned in said two, notches of said annular recess base, said projecting wings moved and engaged in said annular groove of said annular recess base when said windshield is turned for a small angle, thus said windshield having its end fixed with said annular recess base of said helmet shell, said two lip blocks of said two base plates on the opposite sides of said helmet shell moved downward to let said lip openings exposed, said slide block on the opposite ends of said windshield moved in said lip opening; said windshield having said projecting wing of said projection positioned in said two notches of said annular recess base of said helmet shell, said windshield turned upward slightly and fixed on said helmet shell, said corrugated rib edge of said projecting rib of said windshield and said corrugated projecting edge of projecting wall of said helmet shell contacting with each other in position, the contact of said corrugated rib edge of said projecting rib and said corrugated projecting edge of projecting wall enabling said windshield adjusted and positioned at various angles when it is pushed open; to disassemble said wind shielding lens from said helmet shell said lip blocks of said base plates on the opposite sides of said helmet shell moved downward to let said lip opening exposed, said lip opening facilitating said slide blocks of said windshield to be pulled outward, said windshield pushed upward to let the projecting wings of its projections disengaged from said notches of said annular recess base of said helmet shell.
