ABSTRACT:
A protective communications helmet combining aural, visual, flying object d bump guard protective features with electronic communications including a multiple section shell comprised of a central shell to which lateral electronics compartments are removably attached. The central shell and lateral electronics compartments are of generally planar design for facilitating packaging density and thereby enabling an extremely low center of gravity, reduced moments of inertia, and lower packaging weight. The helmet further includes a suspension system having adjustably secured attenuating, fitting cushions disposed on the inner surface of the central shell and positioned to avoid the Sagittal suture. A nape pad is adjustably secured to the rear portions of the lateral electronics compartment. The helmet is equipped with an externally adjustable universal sizing headband. Mounted on the headband are adjustably fitted side pads and a rear head pad.
Further included in the protective communications helmet is a hearing defender assembly comprised of a single spring to which both hearing defenders are attached. The spring is connected to the central shell of the helmet at the posterior thereof by a hinge mechanism for providing utilization and standby positions.
Additionally, the communications helmet includes a goggle assembly, comprised of a pair of slotted lever arms connected to the central shell at opposite sides thereof to enable utilization and standby positions for protective goggles, a microphone boom and chin cup assembly, all independently operable such that each may be utilized without interference from and without requiring relocation of any of the other items.
