Abstract
An eye shield attachment can be used in combination with a safety helmet. The helmet has a front brim continuous with a rim extending along each opposite side of the safety helmet adjacent to a pair of rim slots in the rim of the safety helmet. The eye shield attachment has a lens and a right and a left structure. Each of the right and left structures has (a) a side frame adapted to be suspended below the rim and to extend toward the front brim, and (b) at least one tong adapted to be removably and dependently attached from below to a corresponding one of the rim slots in the helmet for supporting the side frame. The lens is attached distally between the right and the left structures and can pivot under the front brim between a lowered and a raised position and still remain subjacent to the front brim. The right and left structures are adjustable to provide an adjustable orientation of the lens while in the lowered position.
