Helmet Suspension It Comes to Protecting Brain


CALIFORNIA - Experts from 6D helmet manufacturers in the United States (US) creating a helmet at the ceiling mounted device that works like a spring or suspension.

The suspension serves to reduce collisions that could reduce the risk of fatal brain and skull.

Today, most helmets are designed only to protect the skull, but not qualified enough to reduce the risk of fatal concussion occurs when the brain with asphalt or other hard objects.

6D helmet has two layers of foam. There is a cavity between the layers filled with a lot of 27 suspensions around the entire head, a good brain, forehead, cheeks, and the back. During impact springs made of a rubber material that works mitigate the impact of the beat while the foam-impact energy absorbing foam.

In addition, the two layers can be designed to move in any direction or Omni-Directional Suspension (ODS) provide maximum security in all parts of the head.

Bob Weber, the inventor of the helmet 6D explained, a combination of suspension and EPS foam material can absorb impact energy to the maximum that is safe for its users.

"With the use of the suspension, this helmet emits less energy than ordinary helmets," said Weber was quoted as saying by the Daily Mail.

This helmet has been sold 6D with prices in the range of USD700 or approximately Rp9.4 million. In addition to off-road, 6D also produces helmets for motor sport onroad as well as bicycles.
