  • Light sources in energy management liner of a helmet to illuminate helmet fit system
    Patent number: 11425950
    Abstract: A helmet including fit system straps with illuminable strips on them or woven into them and one or more light sources positioned adjacent the tops of the fit system straps on the helmet body to emit light toward the illuminable strips. The light sources may be connected directly to the illuminable strips to emit light into an end of the illuminable strips. The light sources may emit light from or near a lower surface of the helmet body toward the illuminable strips.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: July 6, 2021
    Date of Patent: August 30, 2022
    Assignee: Bell Sports, Inc.

  • Multiple use electrical connector having planar exposed surface
    Patent number: 5021001
    Abstract: An electrical connector which can be panel or inline mounted, and accommodates coaxial, waveguide, or mono-conductor cables. The connector is comprised of two separable halves which mate to form continuous electrical connections. One connector half presents a planar surface carrying two electrically conductive zones, the other connector half carries spring biased electrically conductive protrusions for contact with the zones of the first half to create intimate electrical continuity between the two halves.
