ABSTRACT:
An aerodynamically configured face-shield suitable for sports-helmets or other similar head protective gear, which is inexpensively die-cut and readily conforming to the frontal vertical-brim region of an existing visorless-helmet via special mounting elements. The vestigial low-profile mounting-elements are non-intrusive, and permanently install via double-face mounting-tape, as extruded-plastic strips having elongated-bifurcations which are manually swedged into corresponding die-cut attachment-slots at opposite lateral sides of the helmet brim. Thus attached, the special faceshield is held rigidly in position against physical forces such as are encountered during bicycling; yet, may be instantly avulsedly detatched by the user merely pulling the faceshield away from the brim mount-strips. This unique mounting methodology virtually eliminates potentially injurious fasteners heretofore employed in faceshield hardware design; plus, it presents an aerodynamically superior conformation.
