ABSTRACT:
An air cushioned safety and/or display helmet. A thin cushion of air between the wearer's head and the inside of the helmet supports the helmet and distributes the helmet's weight evenly thus preventing development of pressure points and corresponding wearer fatigue. When used in a high performance environment which exposes the user to g forces, such as fighter aircraft, an air regulator controls the air pressure of the air cushion in response to these forces to maintain helmet position and comfort. Air contained in the air cushion can also be used to demist the helmet visor and display optics, can be directed past the head to provide heating or cooling of the head, or can do both at one time.
