ABSTRACT:
A support structure in the form of a seat, for an occupant in a vehicle which also serves as a protective assembly by enclosing the occupant within a hollow interior portion defined in part by an ovoidal shaped shell formed of impact-resistant material wherein the head, torso and lower or underportion of the occupants are essentially surrounded or enclosed so as to prevent severe damage to the occupant in cases of vehicle emergencies such as collision or crash. A closure at least partially covers an access opening to the interior allowing entrance and exiting of the occupant from the protective shell wherein adequate space is provided for viewing through the access opening above and beyond the closure. Additional supplementary features may include a combined audio and speaker assembly so as to provide sound recording, radio reception, etc. to the interior of the shell and the occupant therein.
