Abstract (en)

Proposed is a concept of providing an impact absorbing component that may be easily installed/assembled in a rigid helmet shell. In this way, a plurality of impact absorbing parts may be held in a desired relative arrangement as a pre-fabricated sub-component of a helmet. Such a sub-component may therefore be pre-assembled or pre-fabricated so that the plurality of impact absorbing parts meet predetermined/desired shape, sizing and/or positioning requirements for a helmet. The sub-component may then be subsequently located, fixed, and assembled inside a rigid helmet shell whilst ensuring that a predetermined relative arrangement of impact absorbing parts is obtained.
