Abstract
Description


FIG. 1 is a perspective view of an energy absorbing lining material, showing our new design; and,



FIG. 2 is a front view thereof.


The energy absorbing lining material is intended to be used for helmets and other impact receiving articles. The dot-dot-dash broken lines depict the boundaries of the claim and form no part thereof. The evenly spaced broken lines depict portions of the energy absorbing lining material that form no part of the claimed design.


Claims
  • I claim the ornamental design for an energy absorbing lining material, as shown and described.
