Abstract:
1. A magnetically repulsive sport equipment system for reducing impact force on sport equipment by magnetic repulsion, said magnetically repulsive sport equipment system comprising: a first sport equipment configured to be worn on a first user, said first sport equipment comprising: an outer body having an exterior surface and an inner surface; an inner body in spaced relation with said outer body; a plurality of impact absorbing members located between said outer body and said inner body, said impact absorbing members each having a substantial cylindrical configuration defining a longitudinal bore therethrough, with a first end of each of said impact absorbing members being in contact with said inner surface of said outer body; and a first magnetic element located in said longitudinal bore of each of said impact absorbing members so as to define a gap between said first magnetic element and said inner surface of said outer body at said first end of said impact absorbing member, respectively, said first magnetic element having a first pole orientated in a direction exterior of said outer body of said first sport equipment; and a second sport equipment not provided on the first user, said second sport equipment having a second magnetic element having a first pole orientated in a direction exterior of said second sport equipment; wherein said first magnetic element of said first sport equipment is configured to produce a repulsive magnetic force with said second magnetic element of said second sport equipment at a predetermined distance from said first sport equipment prior to said exterior surface of said outer body of said first sport equipment contacting said second sport equipment; wherein said gap being configured to receive a portion of said first end of said impact absorbing member, respectively, deformed upon said outer body receiving a predetermined impact force from said second sport equipment to prevent said inner surface of said outer body contacting said first magnetic element.
