Patent number: 11918070Abstract: The invention relates to a system and/or an apparatus for an improved helmet system that may help reduce the severity of injuries by enhancing overall helmet protection through uniquely designed facemasks and facemask bumpers. The facemask and facemask bumpers that are particularly adapted to redistribute pressure and impact forces, decrease vibration, sudden shock, noise and/or the peak forces transmitted from the facemask to the rest of the helmet system. The facemask bumpers may be disposed into specific regions of the facemask, including the brow region, the glabella region, orbit region, the frontal region, the mandible (front, right and/or left side) region, the maxilla region, the nasal region, zygomatic region, the ethmoid region, the lacrimal region, the sphenoid region and/or any combination thereof.Type: GrantFiled: January 4, 2021Date of Patent: March 5, 2024Assignee: VICIS IP, LLCInventors: Marie Pahlmeyer, Travis E. Glover, Jason Neubauer, Kurt V. Fischer, Noah Lanphear, Andre Stone, Adam Kollgaard, Kayla Fukuda, Derek Wallin, Cord Santiago

Publication number: 20240049827Abstract: Protective clothing and/or equipment may comprise a modular helmet assembly which comprises a plurality of impact mitigation modules positioned between an outer layer and an interior layer of the helmet, optionally with a plurality of perforations or openings in an outer shell of the helmet. The plurality of impact mitigation assemblies may comprise an impact absorbing array of impact mitigation structures having at least one filament and a lateral support wall or connecting element. When force is applied to the exterior surface, the structures of the impact absorbing materials deform in a desired and controlled manner, reducing the force received by the interior layer.Type: ApplicationFiled: March 15, 2023Publication date: February 15, 2024Inventors: Jason Neubauer, Noah Lanphear, Travis E. Glover, Dave Marver, Cord Santiago, Kayla Fukuda, Andre H.P. Stone, Adam Kollgaard, Kurt Fischer, Marie Pahlmeyer, Rich Curren, Miguel Herrera, John Cagle

Publication number: 20220110398Abstract: A helmet includes an outer shell with an inner and outer surface, a first impact mitigation layer of a first stiffness coupled to the inner surface of the outer shell, a supplemental shell coupled to the outer surface of the outer shell, and a second impact mitigation layer having a second stiffness positioned between the outer surface of the outer shell and an inner surface of the supplemental shell. The supplemental shell can flex from a first position to a second position upon impact to the supplemental shell. A difference between the first stiffness and second stiffness allows the first and second impact mitigation layers to absorb impacts of different impact force. The supplemental protection component can be optimized for protection against impacts experienced by a particular position, including the location on the helmet, shape, materials, and impact mitigation structures.Type: ApplicationFiled: December 20, 2021Publication date: April 14, 2022Inventors: Per Reinhall, Kurt Fischer, Cord Santiago, Travis E.

Publication number: 20210112905Abstract: The improved chincup relates systems and methods for a chincup comprising additional comfort relief during use. The chincup may comprise a first and second padding layer, which the first padding layer is positioned at, above or below the alveolar line of the mandible to further protect the chin from abrasions or other injuries during use. Furthermore, the first padding layer may comprise an elastic material to allow the first padding layer to decompress or deform from an uncompressed, original position prior to impact, to a compressed position after impact, and returning to its uncompressed state after the impact is removed.Type: ApplicationFiled: October 16, 2020Publication date: April 22, 2021Inventors: Noah LANPHEAR, Kurt FISCHER, Jason NEUBAUER, Cord SANTIAGO, Travis E.

Publication number: 20210085011Abstract: The protective helmet may comprise a flexible protective helmet that includes a plurality of impact zones that could be particularized to a specific occupation, sport, player-position and/or the individual behavior of a specific player. The protective helmet comprising a plurality of impact mitigation pads coupled to a flexible liner may easily conform to a head of wearer. The different embodiments comprise elements to provide a padded protective helmet that is flexible or semi-flexible, light-weight and adapted to reduce the risk of head trauma due to the multi-layered padded configuration.Type: ApplicationFiled: October 2, 2020Publication date: March 25, 2021Inventors: Cord SANTIAGO, Brian LEWIS-CLARK, Mike CZERSKI, Roger LEVESQUE, Jason NEUBAUER, Brendan KAYS, Bob DOWNS

Publication number: 20200060374Abstract: The invention herein relates to an improved helmet design that allows enhanced modularity and quick installation of various types of computing equipment, electronics, electronic communications modules (ECMs), stock impact mitigation pads and/or custom impact mitigation pads within a commercially available helmet. A commercially available helmet can be retrofitted with a pocket or chamber that sized and configured to receive a protective enclosure. The protective enclosure may house at least one of an electronic communications modules (ECMs), stock impact mitigation pads or custom impact mitigation pads. The protective enclosure can be quickly and easily secured within the pocket or chamber disposed within the helmet. Such improved helmet design may be customized to the specific ECM, and its protective enclosure may also be small, lightweight, durable and/or low-profile, but yet not sacrifice comfort and impact performance of the helmet.Type: ApplicationFiled: September 12, 2019Publication date: February 27, 2020Inventors: Travis E.
