Abstract
A protective headwear device designed to absorb impact forces, comprising headwear with an interior surface, a brim, an apex, and at least one vent hole. The device includes a first impact absorbing feature positioned at the rear interior surface, a second impact absorbing feature on the lateral sides, and a third impact absorbing feature at the apex and front section. Each impact absorbing feature is removably attached to the interior surface via fastening means and is made of high-density foam for impact absorption. The features are customizable to fit a user's head and enhance protection during high-impact activities.
Claims12
A protective headwear device comprising:
- a headwear structure having an outer surface, an interior surface, a brim, an apex, and at least one vent hole;
- a first impact absorbing feature disposed within a rear section of the interior surface of the headwear, said first impact absorbing feature comprising:
- a first body having a generally rectangular shape with rounded corners;
- and,
- a first fastening means affixed to a rear surface of the first body for removably attaching the first body to the interior surface of the headwear;
- and,
- a second impact absorbing feature disposed on opposing lateral sides of the interior surface of the headwear, said second impact absorbing feature comprising:
- a second body having a first side, an opposing second side, and a pair of curvilinear ends;
- a pair of first side pleats formed on the first side of the second body and a pair of second side pleats formed on the second side of the second body, enabling the second body to conform to the shape of the interior surface of the headwear;
- and,
- a second fastening means affixed to a rear surface of the second body for removably attaching the second body to the interior surface of the headwear;
- and,
- a third impact absorbing feature disposed at the apex and extending to the front section of the interior surface of the headwear, said third impact absorbing feature comprising:
- a plurality of third bodies, each having a generally rectangular shape, interconnected along adjacent sides by a seam;
- and,
- a third fastening means affixed to a rear surface of each third body for removably attaching the third bodies to the interior surface of the headwear;
- and,
- wherein said first body is composed of a high-density foam material configured to absorb impact forces applied to the rear section of the headwear;
- wherein the second body is composed of a high-density foam material configured to absorb impact forces applied to the lateral sides of the headwear;
- and,
- wherein the plurality of third bodies are composed of a high-density foam material configured to absorb impact forces applied to the apex and front section of the headwear.
