A protective headgear comprising a helmet and a face mask of flexible material secured to the helmet. When a force capable of causing injury to the headgear wearer is applied to the face mask, the mask deflects to a significant degree, without fracturing, with respect to the helmet. The deflection may take place entirely within the material of the face mask, or the deflection may in part take place within the attachments resiliently securing the face mask to the helmet. The face mask is preferably fabricated of an elastomeric material. |

DETAILED DESCRIPTION We claim: 1.
A protective headgear comprising: (a) a helmet, (b) a face mask of flexible material, and (c) means securing the face mask to the helmet, (d) the helmet and face mask being so constructed that when a force in the range of 200 to 1000 pounds is applied in a direction generally perpendicular to the plane of the face of the wearer, there is a deflection of the face mask with respect to the helmet in the range of two to four inches, the deflection being unaccompanied by fracture of the mask, and the face mask remaining attached to the helmet throughout the time the force is applied.
2.
A protective headgear comprising: (a) a helmet, (b) a face mask of flexible material, and (c) means rigidly securing the face mask to the helmet, (d) the helmet and face mask being so constructed that when a force capable of causing injury to the headgear wearer is applied to the face mask, the mask deflects throughout its thickness to a significant degree, without fracturing, with respect to the helmet, the deflection taking place entirely within the flexible material of the face mask.
3.
A protective headgear comprising: (a) a helmet, (b) a face mask of flexible material, and (c) means resiliently securing the face mask to the helmet, (d) the helmet and face mask being so constructed that when a force capable of causing injury to the headgear wearer is applied to the face mask, the mask deflects to a significant degree, without fracturing, with respect to the helmet, while the face mask remains attached to the helmet, part of the deflection of the mask taking place in the securing means, and part of the deflection taking place within and throughout the thickness of the flexible material of the face mask.
4.
A protective headgear comprising: (a) a helmet, (b) a face mask of flexible, interconnected hollow tubular bars, and (c) means securing the face mask to the helmet, (d) the helmet and face mask being so constructed that when a force capable of causing injury to the headgear wearer is applied to the face mask, the mask deflects throughout its thickness to a significant degree, without fracturing, with respect to the helmet, while the face mask remains attached to the helmet
