ABSTRACT:
FIELD OF THE INVENTION
The present invention relates to motorcycle helmets and more particularly to a motorcycle helmet with improved ventilation characteristics.
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
Many countries have promulgated laws to enforce a motorcycle rider wear helmet while driving. However, wearing helmet is not a comfortable thing as regarded by motorcycle rider. This is because most conventional helmets are not ventilated well. Thus a motorcycle rider often gives forth a lot of sweat while driving especially in the summer. This may frustrate the desire of wearing helmet by a motorcycle rider.
Thus, it is desirable to provide a helmet with improved ventilation arrangement in order to overcome the above drawback of prior art.
SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION
It is an object of the present invention to provide a helmet with ventilation arrangement comprising a housing, an inner honeycomb-like impact resistant layer shaped to the head of rider, a protective covering spaced above and formed integrally with the front, rear, and two sides of housing, and a chamber enclosed by housing and protective covering being open to outside in the front side for introducing air therein. Chamber has a net strap in the front side for preventing foreign objects from entering and one or more inner channels being in communication with the inner space of helmet through a passageway. In riding a motorcycle by a rider wearing the helmet of the present invention, air may enter into chamber. Moreover, such fresh air flows through channel, passageway, and honeycomb-like impact resistant layer so as to be in contact with every part of the head of rider. This can lower the temperature inside helmet for providing a degree of comfort to the rider.
The above and other objects, features and advantages of the present invention will become apparent from the following detailed description taken with the accompanying drawings.
