ABSTRACT:
Helmet accessory devices are provided for protecting a wearer from cervical spine injuries. The devices comprise a shoulder assembly (401, 501) to which at least one leaf spring (408, 508) has its first end (404, 504) rigidly connected. A post (406, 506) is formed on the leaf spring to carry a hood (410) superposed above a helmet (430) worn by the wearer. Axially compressive forces sustained by the hood (410) are opposed by the post (408, 508) and the shoulder assembly (401, 501).
