Protective helmets with non-linearly deforming elements

The present technology relates generally to protective helmets with non-linearly deforming members. Helmets configured in accordance with embodiments of the present technology can comprise, for example, an inner layer, an outer layer, a space between the inner layer and the outer layer, and an interface layer disposed in the space. The interface layer comprises a plurality of filaments, each having a height, a longitudinal axis along the height, a first end proximal to the inner layer, and a second end proximal to the outer layer. The filaments are sized and shaped to span the space between the inner layer and the outer layer. The filaments are configured to deform non-linearly in response to an external incident force on the helmet. 本发明主要涉及具有非线性变形部件的防护头盔。根据本发明实施方式构造的头盔可以包括，例如，内层、外层、所述内层和所述外层之间的空间及设置在所述空间内的界面层。所述界面层包括多个丝，每个丝具有高度、沿所述高度的纵向轴线、靠近所述内层的第端和靠近所述外层的第二端。所述丝被限定尺寸和形状以跨越所述内层和所述外层之间的空间。所述丝被构造成能够响应于头盔上的外部入射力而发生非线性变形。
