Welding Helmet fan pictures posted on metalworking dropbox.
As per request, you will find pictures of the welding helmet fan, along
with an explanation of the various components in the metalworking dropbox. Be mindful, the pictures are a bit larger than anticipated, my bad. Look for the following files: Helmet_Fan_Battery_Small_1.jpg Helmet_Fan_Top_Small_1.jpg Helmet_Fan_Bottom_Small_1.jpg Helmet_Fan_Top_Small_2.jpg Helmet_Fan_Bottom_Small_2.jpg Helmet_Fan_explanation.txt Best, Guy |

Very cool. I have just one nitpick: would you mind resending the text file with hard carriage returns every 70 or 80 characters or so? I suspect that some of your text was truncated where it exceeds the browser line length... --Glenn Lyford |

I was thinking, inspired by your idea, of course, about mounting the fan on the headgear. Not sure how that would work, but you could be cooled the entire time, not just when you have the helmet down. Hmmmm.... |

According to Blueraven :
HOw do i nav to the metal working drop box? http://www.metalworking.com click on the bar which takes you to the dropbox, and then navigate through the alphabetical list of files.

Awesome idea and job! I like it! I was thinking, inspired by your idea, of course, about mounting the fan on the headgear. Not sure how that would work, but you could be cooled the entire time, not just when you have the helmet down. Hmmmm.... Hi Carl, Sounds like a great idea! The band already has the recessed holes for fastening the fuzzy stuff. I've ditched the fuzzy stuff since it seems to be an irritant, making the holes available. In looking over the pictures again, one can see how those dots can get connected, the headband, the fan. Nicely done. An added benefit would be that there is no longer the transition of the wire from the headgear to the helmet. Flex points can be finicky, although they haven't been a factor so far. The only concerns include flexure of the headband. Because the headband conforms to the forehead at that location, the fixture would likely need to flex to avoid discomfort. It is likely that the fixture will be made from some sort of plastic. The fan is light enough so that it wouldn't cause undue stress on the relatively thin headband. There seems to be enough clearance between the helmet and the headband. Although full-time cooling is attractive, the heat seems to be felt only once the hood comes down. An interesting bit is that the cooling induced by the fan is so good that in one start/stop application I forgot to turn the fan back on, the residual cooling on my face prevented me from feeling the heat as before. I turned the fan back on before heating became an issue again. It is foreseeable that a welding shop in the summer would make full-time cooling an attractive option. If you give it a try, post the results. Best regards, Guy |
