Abstract: Manufacturing method of a body protection and resulting body protection, wherein the method comprises producing a structural shell (10) with a maximum thickness of 5 mm, made of thermoplastic material, and defining a concave interior (11) and a convex exterior (12); over-moulding an expanded polystyrene layer (20) overlapping the concave interior (11) of the structural shell (10), producing its adhesion by close contact to the structural shell (10); and wherein the structural shell (10) is produced by means of the distributed placement, in a mould, of a mixture of thermoplastic material and of reinforcing fibres stable at temperatures equal to or lower than the melting temperature of the thermoplastic material, the closure and heating of the mould causing the melting of the thermoplastic material without damaging the reinforcing fibres, and the subsequent cooling of the mould, hardening the thermoplastic material with the reinforcing fibres embedded therein.

Abstract: The rigid hollow protection casing (30) includes a first rigid layer (10) composed of a matrix of a first thermoplastic material (11) including in its interior at least one long-fibre fabric layer (12) selected from fibreglass, carbon fibre and/or aramid fibre and comprising between 45% and 65% of the total weight of the first layer (10); a second overlapping rigid layer (20) exterior to the first layer (10), the second layer (20) being entirely composed of a matrix thereof or of a second thermoplastic material (21), the second layer (20) comprising between 2% and 10% of the total weight of the casing (30).

Abstract: A protective liner, attachable to the inner surface of a helmet, comprising an inner face and an outer face oriented towards the inner surface of the helmet, wherein the joining of faces gives rise to a plurality of inflatable chambers permeable to water vapour and connected by means of pressurised air distribution channels. The chambers and channels form a single body extending at least along the inner surface of the helmet above the Frankfurt plane. The outer face comprises a layer of rigid material while the inner face comprises a layer of elastic material, whose area expands when the chambers are filled with air, such that the expansion in volume occurs mainly by means of the deformation of the elastic layer.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a method of manufacturing a body made of composite material such as a shell of a helmet. Said body constitutes a multilayer structure where each layer is formed by superposed strata comprising portions of fabrics preimpregnated with thermoplastic resin in which at least some of said layers are formed by woven or non-woven LFRTP-type preimpregnated fabrics. The outer layer is formed by strata of portions of “veil” type or “felt” type fabrics, with non-woven and non-oriented fibers of lengths comprised between 5 and 20 mm. In the method, the multilayer structure arranged in a mold is subjected to the action exerted by a bag that is inflated due to pressure occupying the cavity of the mold.
