BACKGROUND OF THE DISCLOSURE
Field of the Invention

The invention relates generally to the field of injury-preventive gear, and more particularly, to athletic helmet-facemasks including attaching elements.


Background

In contact sports such as American football, injury is relatively common due to the collisions and force of impact between players. Over 4 million concussion and sports-related brain injuries occur each year with nearly 48,000 reported cases occurring in youth football leagues and 250,000 in high school football programs. It is also estimated that more than 35,000 injuries go undiagnosed annually.


Concussions, in particular, happen to be one of the most severe hazards for football players. Concussions occur from physical trauma to the cranial region and can result in serious life-long disabilities. Due to this danger, football helmets play a crucial role in player safety and concussion prevention.


Football helmets and the facemasks attached thereto are designed to absorb the impact energy generated from the collision with other players through material elastic deformation. Such a design is simple, but does not effectively absorb the impact forces that are commonly experienced by football helmets. Current facemasks do not transfer impact forces experienced by a player in an effective manner so as to maximize energy absorption and minimize inertial forces because of the manner they are attached to the football helmet.


While certain aspects of conventional technologies have been discussed to facilitate disclosure of the invention, Applicant in no way disclaims these technical aspects, and it is contemplated that the claimed invention may encompass one or more of the conventional technical aspects discussed herein.


In this specification where a document, act, or item of knowledge is referred to or discussed, this reference or discussion is not an admission that the document, act, or item of knowledge or any combination thereof was at the priority date, publicly available, known to the public, part of common general knowledge, or otherwise constitutes prior art under the applicable statutory provision; or is known to be relevant to an attempt to solve any problem with which this specification is concerned.
