ABSTRACT:
An improved head lamp assembly adapted for use on protective helmets and other headgear, comprises a "U"-shaped housing, multiple head lamps supported by the housing and arranged to project multiple overlapping cone shaped light beams in a direction generally parallel to the plane of the "U", each head lamp including a light bulb and a reflector for shaping the individual cones of illumination, wherein the head lamps are spaced apart along a front face of the "U"-shaped housing so as to project overlapping cones of illumination in a direction parallel to the plane of the "U" and having a total included lateral angle of illumination approaching that of human peripheral vision. The assembly contains batteries for powering the multiple head lamps, an interconnecting circuit, on/off switch and power supply and charger connections. The U-Shaped housing is substantially rigid, desirably of rectangular cross-section and conveniently snaps into place on the protective helmet.
