WIDE ACTION CLAMPING MOUNT FOR COMMUNICATION HEADSET TO HALF-HELMETS, SPORTS HELMETS, AND THE LIKE

摘要

Device for mounting a communication headset to helmets of the type having a first strap extending in front of an ear of a user, a second strap extending behind the ear, and a chin strap connectable to the first and second straps, for instance, sports helmets. The device includes a mounting panel having a seat that includes electrical contacts connected to a printed circuit board and a guide. A rear of the mounting panel spans a distance that overlaps the first second straps. A second surface also spans the distance that overlaps the first and second straps and is movable relative to the mounting panel. A clamp resiliently biases the second surface into contact with the rear surface of the mounting panel but is urgable so as to move the second surface away from the rear surface allowing the device to be fastened to or removed from the helmet.
