Helmet System

Abstract

A helmet system that employs an outer shell and a unitary inner shell formed with compatible grooves and ridges respectively. The outer shell is formed with a switch. The outer shell and inner shell are further secured together via magnetic force or a system of springs and levers in conjunction with the switch that allows for a user of the helmet system to seamlessly remove the outer shell through either a set amount of breakaway force or by using the switch.

1 . A helmet system, comprising:
 an outer shell configured to hold to an inner shell and release from said inner shell;   said outer shell configured to fit over said inner shell;   wherein said inner shell is configured to cover the cranial portion of a head; and   wherein said outer shell is more impact resistant than said inner shell.   
     
     
         2 . The helmet system of  claim 1 , wherein said inner shell is unitary. 
     
     
         3 . The helmet system of  claim 1 , wherein said outer shell is unitary. 
     
     
         4 . The helmet system of  claim 2 , wherein said outer shell is unitary. 
     
     
         5 . The helmet system of  claim 1 , wherein said outer shell is configured to completely cover said inner shell. 
     
     
         6 . A helmet system, comprising:
 forming an inner shell to fit snuggly onto a head of a user;   forming an outer shell to completely cover the inner shell; and   locking the outer shell to the inner shell.   
     
     
         7 . The helmet system of  claim 6 , wherein the inner shell is unitary. 
     
     
         8 . The helmet system of  claim 6 , wherein the outer shell is unitary. 
     
     
         9 . The helmet system of  claim 7 , wherein the outer shell is unitary. 
     
     
         10 . The helmet system of  claim 6 , wherein the outer shell is more impact resistant than the inner shell. 
     
     
         11 . The helmet system of  claim 6 , further comprising releasing the outer shell from the inner shell with an established amount of breakaway force. 
     
     
         12 . A helmet system, comprising:
 forming an inner shell to fit snuggly onto a head of a user, the inner shell being unitary;   placing an outer shell over the inner shell to completely cover the inner shell;   placing a switch on the outer shell;   interlocking the outer shell to the inner shell when the switch is activated; and   releasing the outer shell from the inner shell when the switch is activated.
