A safety helmet () with a helmet shell (), with a bearing element (), with at least one holding element () and with a tubular shape textile sheathing. Each holding element () is permanently connected to the helmet shell (). A distance is present between a holding element () and the head of a user of the safety helmet (). The bearing element () is adjacent to the head. The textile sheathing encloses the bearing element () and is located in some areas between the bearing element () and the head. The bearing element () is detachably connectable to a respective holding element through at least one connection opening in the textile sheathing. A process for removing the textile sheathing from the safety helmet (), as well as to a process for manufacturing a safety helmet () are provided.

A safety helmet () includes an arched helmet shell (), a bearing structure (), an inner lining and a plurality of connection units. The inner lining comes into contact with the head of a user of the safety helmet. The bearing structure is attached on the inside to the helmet shell. Each connection unit is capable of detachably connecting the inner lining to the bearing structure. Each connection unit comprises a bearing structure-side component and an inner lining-side component. Each component is configured as exactly one connection type. A bearing structure-side component is connectable to an inner lining-side component if the two components are configured as the same connection type. The two components cannot otherwise be connected to one another or are incapable of establishing a connection between the bearing structure and the inner lining.

A safety helmet () with a helmet shell (), with a bearing element (), with at least one holding element (.l) and with a tubular shape textile sheathing. Each holding element () is permanently connected to the helmet shell (). A distance is present between a holding element () and the head of a user of the safety helmet (). The bearing element () is adjacent to the head. The textile sheathing encloses the bearing element () and is located in some areas between the bearing element () and the head. The bearing element () is detachably connectable to a respective holding element through at least one connection opening in the textile sheathing. A process for removing the textile sheathing from the safety helmet (), as well as to a process for manufacturing a safety helmet () are provided.

A head protection device (), for protecting the head, includes a head bracket (), with a visor () fastened rotatably to the head bracket () via two swivel joints (), and with a branched air duct (), which has one air inlet () and a plurality of air outlets (). At least one of the air outlets () is arranged as a chin air outlet () at a lateral section () of the visor. At least one of the swivel joints () forms an inner air channel () extending as a part of the air duct () from the head bracket () to the visor (). In addition, a respirator device is provided with the head protection device ().

Head protection device and respirator device

A safety hood (), with a head strap () for fixation on the head () of a user of the hood, has features for adjusting the head strap () to different head sizes and/or head shapes. The respirator hood () has, further, a visor pane () and a flexible hood outer skin (), which are connected with one another and of which the visor pane () is indirectly or directly fastened to the head strap (). The visor pane () is fastened indirectly or directly to the head strap () exclusively in the area () of the forehead of the user of the hood.
