  • Patent number: 11147335
    Abstract: According to an aspect of the present invention, there is provided a helmet comprising an inner shell (3) a detachable outer shell (2) and an intermediate layer (4) between the inner shell and the outer shell. At least one connecting member (5) is configured to directly connect the inner shell to the outer shell, and allow sliding between the inner shell and the outer shell, when the outer shell is attached to the helmet. When the outer shell is attached, the outer shell and the inner shell are configured to slide relative to one another in response to an impact. A sliding interface is provided between the intermediate layer and one or both of the outer shell and the inner shell.

  • Patent number: 10779601
    Abstract: A connector (20) for connecting first (14) and second (15) parts of an apparatus (1), comprising: a sliding plate (21); an anchor point (22) on one side of the plate, configured to be connected to the first part; and a deformable material, configured to at least partially cover the side of the plate on which the anchor point is located; wherein a peripheral region (23) of the deformable material is configured to be connected to the second part and an inner region of the deformable material is connected to at least one of the plate and the anchor point; the connector further comprising a layer of material (25, 30) that is located on the opposite side of the plate from the anchor point; wherein a low friction interface is provided between the opposing surfaces of the plate and the layer of material.

  • Patent number: 10492557
    Abstract: A helmet with two layers configured to slide with respect to each other is provided. The surface of one or both layers contains a sliding facilitator to improve slidability between the two layers. The sliding facilitator may be any one or a combination of (i) an organic polymer, a polysiloxane and a surfactant; (ii) an organic polymer and a copolymer based on a polysiloxane and an organic polymer; or (iii) a non-elastomeric cross-linked polymer obtained or obtainable by subjecting a polysiloxane and an organic polymer to a cross-linking reaction.

  • Patent number: 10271602
    Abstract: The invention relates to a connection arrangement (6) adapted to connect a first (2) and a second part (3) slidably arranged in relation to each other. The connection arrangement (6) is characterized in that said connection arrangement (6) is adapted to allow the sliding movement between the first (2) and the second part (3) in all directions. The arrangement (6) comprises a connection member (7) directly or indirectly connected to at least one of the first part and the second part (2, 3) and a device creating a spring force and/or a damping force (8) during sliding movement between the first and second part (2, 3) adapted to be connected with or to cooperate with said connection member (7).
