ABSTRACT:
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
This invention relates to a motorcycle helmet equipped with a shield or visor (called Shield hereinafter), wherein, the fragrance device is to be installed.
It is common nowadays that the motorcycle helmet is equipped with a Shield, which is quite useful for keeping off wind and/or rain.
However, there are the cases on the other hand that the use of the Shield may cause the riders to feel a sort of oppression and/or to smell some unpleasant odor due to perspiration or the like, and that, for such reasons, there is found many riders who open the Shield upward and do not use it.
Nevertheless, still there will be many opportunities for the riders to wear the Shield just because of convenience or necessity, in spite of a sort of oppression and/or some smell being caused when using the Shield.
Recently it is getting very popular especially among the relatively younger generation that various fragrance are useful in order to find the pleasure of smelling itself, or to deodorize the smell, or to relax the irritating feeling incurred somehow in daily life.
Now, it is rather interesting that the motorcars are furnished with various kinds of fragrance. In most cases, however, the fragrance will be furnished in an easier or simpler way, like just putting beside a bottle containing the liquefied fragrance, then there will be such a phenomenon that sometimes the fragrance causes the drivers' smelling nerves to dull as time goes on, because the fragrance obtainable by such means is monotonous and immutable.
Then, in case the motorcycle helmet with the Shield is devised to be provided with some kind of fragrance device which will furnish the characteristic fragrance for the riders, it is expected to be welcomed by the riders wearing the Shield, though there have not been any precedent of the motorcycle helmet provided with such fragrance device, probably due to the limited space of the motorcycle helmet.
Under such circumstances, this invention is to pursue that the provide such a device in the limited space of the motorcycle helmet to furnish the characteristic fragrance into the Shield, so that the riders wearing the Shield will not only be released from a sort of oppression or unpleasant odor, but also be brought themselves to more pleasant surroundings to wear the Shield.

In order to achieve the above purpose, it is devised the by Invention that the fragrance material case (called Case hereinafter), which contains the fragrance material (called Material hereinafter) and exhales the fragrance (called Fragrance hereinafter) therein, is installed inside of the shell (called Shell hereinafter) or the ear cover (called Ear Cover hereinafter) of the motorcycle helmet (called Helmet hereinafter), and that the fragrance exhaled in the Case is sent into the Shield through a pipe (called Pipe hereinafter) by means of the air flow (called Air hereinafter) inhaled through the air inhaler (called Inhaler hereinafter) which is installed outside of the Shell or the Ear Cover of the helmet.
The prominent feature of the Device is that, in the course of the Air being sent from the Inhaler into the Shield through the Pipe which is installed to connect the Inhaler, Case and the side cushion (called Cushion hereinafter), the Fragrance exhaled in the Case is sucked out into the Pipe by the Air and sent into the Shield together with the Air, and that the Fragrance obtained in the Shield is not monotonous and immutable but variable all the time in accordance with the speed of riding.
