There is described a protective helmet for sporting use, in particular for use while skiing, comprising an external cap-like structure (2) of a resiliently flexible material, an internal cap-like structure (3) which is received in the external cap-like structure (2) and which comprises a plurality of cap portions (5a, 5b) of expanded material which are structurally independent of each other and which are mutually interconnected with limited relative mobility between contiguous portions, the internal cap-like structure (3) delimiting a cavity (4) which is open towards the outer side and which is capable of receiving the head of the user, and at least one device (6) for absorbing energy as a result of forces of impacts on the helmet, which device is interposed between the internal cap-like structure (3) and external cap-like structure (2). The device comprises at least one flexible member (12) which includes a plate-like portion (12a) having a transverse thickness (13) which is defined between a pair of opposing surfaces (13a, 13b) and a plurality of reliefs (14) which project in the same direction from one of the surfaces (13a, 13b), the reliefs (14) extending with a tapering formation in the direction of the free end (14a) thereof, in the direction away from the portion (12a), and the at least one member (12) being fixedly joined to the external cap-like structure (12) in the region of the respective free ends (14a) of the reliefs (14) and the internal cap-like structure (3) in the region of the surface (13a) of the opposite portion (12a) to the portion which has the reliefs. |
