Abstract: An accessory mounting fixture for a vehicle is provided. The accessory mounting fixture includes a fixture body connectable to a vehicle surface and having a substantially U-shape defining a frontal opening and adapted to receive an accessory portion. The accessory mounting fixture also includes a locking assembly adapted to selectively secure the accessory portion within the frontal opening. The locking assembly has a first lock member pivotally connected to the fixture body on a first side of the frontal opening and a second lock member pivotally connected to the fixture body on the second side of the frontal opening. The first and second locking members are operable between a closed position for confining the accessory portion within the frontal opening, and an open configuration. Positioning the first and second lock members in the closed position secures the accessory portion within the frontal opening.

Abstract: A support and attachment system for helmet goggles is described. The main purposes of such a system are to provide an easy attaching of goggles to a helmet and to block the sliding movement of goggles over the outside surface of a helmet by a sliding stop. The support and attachment system for helmet goggles includes two strap connectors each being configured to be attached, on each respective side of the helmet, to the free ends of the goggles' straps and to engage, two attachment supports disposed on the opposite sides of a helmet. One of the strap connectors is adapted to be easily removable while the second is configured to be somewhat difficult to remove. The attachment support connected to the second strap connector includes a sliding stop to block the sliding movement of the goggles when positioned on the top of the outside surface of the helmet.
