International ClassA61F 9/02AbstractAn improved sport goggle for skiing, motorcycling, paintball, racing, and other sports featuring clip-mounted side apertures communicating with the eye cavity of the goggle through adjacent venting apertures. Venting of the eye cavity of the sport goggle is aided by forming of the clip shape to create low pressure zones adjacent to the side venting apertures. The clips are rotationally attached to the goggle to provide an adjustable mount for the strap around heads or helmets while still forming the negative air pressure zone in all rotated positions. The clips may also be provided in a kit of differently dimensioned clips to adjust the negative air pressure venting characteristics of the clips and goggle to the intended sport or task. | |
