Embodiment Construction

[0004]This invention is created and designed to help protect the participant from head injuries such as concussions and other brain injuries.

[0005]The Spring Absorbent Technology (S.A.T.) design is not just limited to just American Football athletes, but can be infused in many types of head protective gear such as lacrosse, hockey, and even for motor sports such as racing.

[0006]The S.A.T. helmet provides an extra layer of protection. S.A.T. adds an absorbent layer comprised of springs to the helmet. The springs will have different strengths depending on the expected use of the headgear. There is a hard outer shell and a hard inner shell separated by springs. When an impact strikes the outer shell, the spring recoils and absorbs the force caused by the impact. This limits the force that reaches the inner shell. In addition, the inner shell will have the foam cushion attached to its inner surface, similar to framework we see in the conventional helmet. The (SAT) functions to absorb th...

Abstract

The S.A.T. (Spring Absorption Technology) helmet is designed to more effectively absorb the impact from an object that comes in contact with the helmet worn by an individual. The S.A.T. helmet is designed with 2 shells separated by 1 or more springs. The springs act as a repelling feature that will help absorb the force from an object that comes in contact with the helmet with S.A.T. to help protect against potential head injuries.

Description

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION[0001]This is an invention related to helmet and headgear accessories. More specifically, the Spring Absorbent Technology that serves as a unique protection of the participant's head.[0002]Over the past few years, we have learned the importance of protecting the head from injuries. Now more than ever, we are more focused on preventing head injuries such as concussions and other brain injuries that causes permanent mental dysfunction.[0003]Conventional Helmets have a foam or equivalent like cushioning covered by a hard plastic shell which serves as the heads protection. Although the current conventional helmet protects does offer some protection, it is not adequate enough to prevent injuries. My invention adds another layer to the helmet that absorbs some of the impact. The springs recoil, slowing and reducing the energy before it reaches the conventional helmet's protection thus serving as a more adequate protective helmet.DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVEN...
