Protecting veil for welding helmets

摘要

Apparatus is described for protecting a welder in association with a standard welding helmet of the type which is open at the top and back of the helmet. An elongate flexible veil comprising fire resistant fabric material is provided having a width across the top sufficient to match the width of the welding helmet. The veil is formed with shoulder length for extending from the helmet edge contour across the top of the helmet over the back of the helmet and below the bottom of the helmet a sufficient distance so that the bottom of the veil lies on the back of the shoulders of a welder wearing the welding helmet.
