20150250252 | LATCHING MECHANISM AND HELMET - A latching mechanism including a pedestal provided with a first hole on the surface, a second member provided with a second hole opened at a position overlapping with the first hole, and a fastening member whose one end part is inserted into and pulled from the first hole through the second hole, so that the second member is engaged with the pedestal in an attachable and detachable manner. In the mechanism, the fastening member is inserted through the second hole into the first hole and then rotated such that an outer shape of the one end part intersects with one of the first hole and the second hole so that the second member is mounted onto the pedestal, and then it is rotated further or reversely so that the second member is separated from the pedestal. | 09-10-2015 |
20140352020 | HELMET SHIELD ATTACHING MECHANISM - This invention provides a helmet shield attaching mechanism capable of relatively easily and relatively accurately performing an adjustment operation for satisfactorily bringing the inner surface of a shield in a substantially fully-closed state into close contact with the window opening rim portion of a head protecting body. The holding position of stopped means of a movable base member, whose position is held by stopper means of a stationary base member in an at least substantially fully-closed state of the shield, can be selected from one of a plurality of portions of the movable base member substantially in the back-and-forth direction. | 12-04-2014 |
20140063369 | TOUCH DISPLAY - A touch display including a liquid crystal display having a surface displaying images and a capacitive touch-sensitive panel superposed on a surface of the liquid crystal display and enabling an input operation in reaction to the displayed image; wherein being arranged on the liquid crystal display in order from the surface of the liquid crystal display toward an outer surface of the liquid crystal display, a second quarter-wave plate converting a light passing through into a circular polarization by shifting phase, the capacitive touch-sensitive panel, a first quarter-wave plate having a same orientation to the second quarter-wave plate, a polarizer converting the light passing through into a linear polarization, a decorated sheet protecting an upper surface of the capacitive touch-sensitive panel, and an antireflection layer preventing a surface-reflection of outside light, in order to obtain the antireflection effect while keeping costs low. | 03-06-2014 |
20130239375 | RATCHET BUCKLE FOR HELMETS - Provided is a ratchet buckle for helmets wherein an engagement/releasing member having an engagement part is assembled to the buckle, via a pin, between the base member and operating member, and therefore when the operating member is pulled up and rotated in the counterclockwise direction, the front end of the operating member contacts the front end of the engagement/releasing member and the engagement with the tab of the ratchet is released by rotation of the engagement part of the engagement/releasing member, and because the engagement is released by pulling up the operating member by at least twice the conventional pull-up distance, the helmet will not come off from the head as a result of a wrong or inadvertent lever operation and thus safety can be ensured, while the thickness of the ratchet buckle can be kept small. | 09-19-2013 |
20130158949 | Method of Selecting Kind of Size of a Helmet and Shape of a Pad, Method of Adjusting Helmet Size by Using the Selection Method, and Head Size Measuring Tool Used in Aforesaid Selection Method - In the present invention, by inputting an upper head size to a computer in addition to a front & back length-size and a right & left width-size of a head portion of a helmet wearer and by data-processing them, there is employed a configuration in which a kind of the helmet size and a shape of a pad such as a pad, in the region consisting of the head-top portion and the vicinity thereof, or the like, which fit the head portion of the helmet wearer, are to be selected. According to the present invention, it is possible to provide a selection method in which it is possible to easily select a kind of a preferable size of the helmet, and a preferable shape of the pad in the region consisting of the head-top portion and the vicinity thereof. | 06-20-2013 |
20130129449 | STRUCTURE FOR MOUNTING ANTI-FOG SHEET TO SHIELD - A mounting structure is provided which comprises a plurality of seat parts that are formed on a peripheral edge part of an anti-fog sheet covering an inner face of a shield, a plurality of support holes that are provided in the shield at positions corresponding to the seat parts, and a plurality of retaining members that retain the anti-fog sheet by being seated on the seat parts while being supported by the support holes, wherein the retaining member ( | 05-23-2013 |

20130081199 | Helmet - A chin guard support mechanism includes first and second fixed-side members, and a moving-side member fixed to the chin guard. When the chin guard pivots forward from a down position in a rising direction, an annular following surface provided on the moving-side member pivots forward while following an annular followed surface provided on the second fixed-side member to make the chin guard rise while moving forward. It is possible to provide a helmet that allows the chin guard support mechanism capable of relatively excellently raising/lowering the chin guard to have a simple structure, allows to operate the chin guard support mechanism smoothly, obviates the necessity of making the structure in a region including an end of the chin guard including the chin guard support mechanism and a vicinity thereof bulky, and obviates the necessity of making the widthwise size of the helmet large. | 04-04-2013 |
20110221702 | INPUT DEVICE USING TOUCH PANEL - Provided is a touch panel including an analog switch area and a fixed switch area. An input device of the present invention includes: a touch panel; a case including an opening capable of housing the touch panel; a transparent resin film bonded to the top surface of the case; and an adhesive applied to the back surface of the transparent resin film in the opening. It is possible to make the case and the touch panel flush with each other, and accordingly to offer a seamless supporting structure by covering the top surfaces of the case and the touch panel with the transparent resin film. In addition, since the touch panel includes the analog switch area and the fixed switch area, it is possible to offer the input device which includes all the operation switches in the touch panel. | 09-15-2011 |
