ABSTRACT:
A shield and visor combination for snapping onto a helmet includes a visor attachable to a helmet and a shield rotatably attached to the visor and having a center snap for holding the shield in position to cover the face of the wearer. The shield is attached to the visor with a pair of plastic studs each having annular surfaces and an opening in the stud to allow the stud to be compressed against the opening to insert the stud into an opening in the visor. The angled surface then holds the visor in place on the shield, but allows the shield to be rotated or lifted on the visor. The lifted shield will maintain its position by the pressure put against the angled surface of the studs by the shield's bias away from the visor and by a wedging action of the shield against a portion of the visor when the shield is lifted. The shield is a molded polymer having molded support studs, center snap and molded studs for racing peel-off strips.
