ABSTRACT:
A flip-up visor assembly for a protective sport helmet or the like, in which a band secured at spaced points along the length and intermediate the ends thereof across the brow portion of a helmet with resilient pads disposed between the free band ends and the outer surface of the helmet to accommodate a range of helmet sizes carries adjacent its ends a pair of pivot pins which pivotally support the visor lens frame for movement between a position at which the visor lens is in front of the upper portion of the wearer's face and a position over the helmet at which the lens is clear of the wearer's face. Associated with the pivot pins are interengageable positive stop means for limiting the movement of the frame between its two extreme limit positions and spring loaded detent means for releasable retaining the visor in its limit positions and in spaced positions intermediate its limit positions. The arrangement is such that the visor can be moved to any of its positions manually by a force exerted on the visor itself, without requiring manipulation of any knobs or positive locking means or the like. Means is provided for for manually releasably assembling the lens visor in the visor frame.
