Abstract

A helmet mounting assembly for attaching helmet accessories to a helmet is provided. The assembly comprises a front-to-back mounting unit comprising at least one rail, grip or connector configured for connecting at least one helmet accessory to the front-to-back mounting unit, whereby the front-to-back mounting unit further comprises a back end configured to enable passage of securing elements there through, and at least one clipping element for attaching the back end of the front-to-back mounting unit to a back edge of the helmet via the securing elements, configured to further pass through the at least one clipping element, and forcefully pulling the front-to-back mounting unit onto the surface of the helmet to squeeze the mounting unit onto the helmet.

Claims (10)

1. A helmet mounting assembly for attaching a helmet mounting unit to a helmet, comprising:

a front-to-back mourning unit configured for connecting at least one helmet accessory to the front-to-back mounting unit, said front-to-back mounting unit comprising a front end and a back end;

at least one front clipping element connected to the front end of the front-to-back mounting unit and configured to attach to a front edge of the helmet; and

at least one back clipping element configured to attach to the back end of the front-to-back mounting unit and to a back edge of the helmet,

wherein said front-to-back mounting unit comprises at least one nut connected to an internal side of the front-to-back mounting unit, and said at least one back clipping element comprises at least one hole corresponding to the at least one nut, said at least one hole extending from a bottom end of the back clipping element to a top end of the back clipping element, wherein the back clipping element is attached to the front-to-back mounting unit via at least one screw screwed through said at least one hole into said at least one nut, such that said at least one screw does not penetrate into the helmet;

further wherein the more the at least one screw is screwed into the at least one nut, the more the at least one nut is pulled towards the back edge of the helmet to thereby pull the front-to-back mounting unit towards the back edge of the helmet with it, such to tighten and squeeze the front-to-back mounting unit onto a helmet surface and thereby to forcefully press the front-to-back mounting unit onto the helmet surface.

2. The helmet mounting assembly of claim 1 , further comprising a second mounting unit configured to be placed and connected across the front-to-back mounting unit.

3. The helmet mounting assembly of claim 1 , wherein said front-to-hack mounting unit is configured to be assembled onto various sized and shaped helmets.

4. The helmet mounting assembly of claim 1 , wherein the at least one front clipping element is configured to attach to the front edge of the helmet without screws.
