The proposed protective helmet comprises a stable helmet shell made up of several connected segments (10, 20, 30, 40). Each segment (10, 20, 30, 40) consists substantially of a plastic foam core (12, 22, 42) which provides the requisite strength and an additional covering layer (11, 21, 41). In order to create a protective helmet which combines a particularly attractive appearance, a high degree of comfort and lightness, while also fulfilling all the safety requirements relating to the particular purposes for which it is used, and which can be manufactured simply and on an industrial scale, it is proposed that the covering layer (11, 21, 41) should be made of leather or a similar material, and that the synthetic core (12, 22, 42) should be produced and foamed in situ on the leather layer (11, 21, 41) which has been placed in a mould (100). Securing means (60) are embedded in the synthetic core (12, 22, 42) to allow the subsequent permanent, non-dissoluble assembly of the segments (10, 20, 30, 40). |
