The present invention provides a safety helmet inner lining adjustable for suitable wearing, consisting of: a covering body, which has an inner side surface that contacts a user's head and an outer side surface relative to the inner side surface; at least one interlayer pocket, which is disposed on the outer side surface of the covering body; and at least one cushiony pad, which is suitable for placement inside the interlayer pocket. A user is able to place the cushiony pads of suitable thickness into the interlayer pockets at preset positions according to the user's to head shape and dimensions. The inner lining is then put onto the head and a safety helmet put on top. The cushiony pads enable correcting the interspace between the user's head and the safety helmet, thereby allowing suitable and perfect fitting of the safety helmet that ensures safety of the wearer.

A hat, headband or helmet formed from a material (10) comprising first and second layers (11, 12) of material and a low friction interface (13) arranged between the layers to enable sliding of the first layer of material (11) relative to the second layer of material (12).

A safety helmet is disclosed having a shell and a comfort liner coupled to the inner surface of the shell. The comfort liner is constrained to the front part and to the rear part of the shell, and the helmet has a webbing arranged between the shell and the comfort liner along the upper median portion of the comfort liner. The webbing has a front end constrained to the front part of the comfort liner and a rear end to move the webbing with respect to the shell and cause consequently the change of the overall dimensions of the comfort liner inside the helmet. The webbing is constrained, with respect to the shell, in an operative position corresponding to the overall dimensions of the comfort liner inside the helmet.

The invention relates to a protective helmet (10) comprising: —an outer shell (12); —an impact absorbing liner (20), positioned inside to the outer shell (12) and shaped so as to correspond to the shape of the wearer's head; —a comfort liner (22) positioned at an inner surface of the impact absorbing liner (20), so as to be in contact with the wearer's head; the comfort liner (22) being attached to the outer shell (12) and/or to the impact absorbing liner (20) by means of at least one connecting means (24). According to the invention the comfort liner (22) is provided with at least one elastic joint (26) which is positioned in proximity of said at least one connecting means (24) for joining said at least one connecting means (24) to the comfort liner (22).

Impact dissipating helmet liners and protective barriers having internal cylindrical posts or pins are provided. The helmet liners and protective barriers include a flexible, fluid impermeable enclosure having an upper wall, an opposing lower wall, and a sidewall extending between the upper wall and the lower wall; a fluid contained in the enclosure; and cylindrical posts or pins extending from the lower wall to the upper wall, each of the cylindrical posts or pins at least partially restraining deflection of one of the upper wall and the lower wall. The helmet liners provided may include a central portion and lobes radially extending from the central portion and are adapted to conform to the shape of a helmet shell. The protective barriers disclosed may be constructed in any convenient shape compatible with the intended application of the protective barrier. Methods of fabricating helmet liners and protective barriers are also provided.
