Abstract

A vibration reducing assembly including a flexible headgear and at least one panel of vibration reducing material secured to the flexible headgear. The at least one panel of vibration reducing material includes at least a first elastomer layer and a reinforcement layer comprising a high tensile strength fibrous material.

Claims (8)

1 . A vibration reducing assembly comprising:

a flexible base material having first and second major surfaces with an adhesive material applied to the first major surface; and

at least one panel of vibration reducing material secured to the second major surface, the at least one panel of vibration reducing material including least a first elastomer layer and a reinforcement layer comprising a high tensile strength fibrous material.

2 . The vibration reducing assembly according to claim 1 wherein multiple panels are secured to the second major surface.

3 . The vibration reducing assembly according to claim 1 wherein the flexible base material is defined by double-sided tape.

4 . The vibration-reducing assembly of claim 1 , wherein at least one of the first elastomer layer and the reinforcement layer are one of i) soaked in, ii) embedded in, or iii) encapsulated by a resistive fluid resulting in a resistive fluid layer.

5 . The vibration-reducing assembly of claim 4 , wherein the resistive fluid is one of a shear thickening fluid, a dilatant, and a magnetorheological fluid.

6 . The vibration-reducing assembly of claim 4 , wherein the resistive fluid layer is separated from the user by the elastomer layer.
