Abstract: A protection equipment including a base member with a deformable membrane which includes a central orifice with an adaptive size, configured to selectively circumvent in a substantially airtight manner the neck of the user, a hood coupled in a substantially airtight manner the base member, whereby a substantially closed volume is provided, the closed volume being delimited by the deformable membrane, the base member, the neck and the hood, and an aperture control device to change the central orifice of the deformable membrane from a large aperture state to a small aperture state.

Abstract: A helmet for anesthesia, adapted to keep confined anesthetic gases and to administer them in a non-invasive fashion to a patient laying on an operating table, allowing to provide oxygen and/or anesthetic gases through tubes and fast access to the patient's head in case of emergency is described. The helmet has a lower half-shell and an upper half-shell, the lower half-shell being anatomically shaped to receive and support the nape and the neck of the laying patient, the upper half-shell and the lower half-shell having fastening means for fastening one to the other and being configured to be fitted one to the other and to the neck or torso of the patient to form a substantially airtight enclosure for enclosing head of the patient, at least one inlet port for gas supply and at least one outlet port for gas evacuation being on the lower half-shell and/or the upper half-shell.

Abstract: An exercise glove for strengthening the muscles of the hand, wrist, fingers and forearm through full, natural ranges of motion, while providing a tightening grip of the hand on objects.

Abstract: A component in a mask in a closed-circuit breathing apparatus includes a lever that actuates a wiper in the mask as well as mount for a communication amplifier. The combined amplifier mount and actuating lever can reduce the profile of the means of actuating the wiper and provide an alternative to using chemical means for preventing the deposition of condensation on the inside of a viewing lens of the mask.
