Abstract: A waste disposal system with a waste receiver for receiving pharmaceutical waste material. A locking assembly is secured to a fixed surface and actuated from a locked configuration to an unlocked configuration. A lock cylinder of the locking assembly may extend forward of a front wall of a receiver body of the waste receiver to engage a locking feature of the cover in the locked configuration. A cover retention feature may prevent axial decoupling of the cover from the receiver body. An engagement feature is moved to be disengaged from the receiver body, and the receiver body is moved away from the fixed surface to disengage the locking assembly from the cover. The cover is decoupled from the cover retention feature, and coupled with the receiver body to seal the pharmaceutical waste material. The locking assembly may be removed from a lock passageway for disposal of the waste receiver.

Abstract: A head unit system (24) for a head (22) of a user (20), including a headpiece (26) for being worn over the head (22) with a support structure (28) shaped to be worn over the head (22). A shield mount (30) attached to the support structure (28) is arranged for supporting a face shield (32) adjacent to the head (22). A headpiece connector (34) is attached to the support structure (28) and has a headpiece contact (36) configured for electrical connection. First and second peripheral devices are provided for being secured to the headpiece (26) for concurrent movement, and each respectively has a device connector (40) with a device contact (42) configured for electrical connection.

Abstract: A personal protection system that includes a headband (52) to which a face shield (38) is mounted. A cooling strip (120) is mounted to the headband. The cooling strip includes at least one thermoelectric cooling module (150). A draw strip (128) formed from a flexible thermally conductive material is also part of the cooling strip. The draw strip is bonded to the heat absorbing surface (152) of the thermoelectric cooling module and extends outwardly from the module. A biasing assembly (134, 186) urges the portions of the draw strip spaced from the thermoelectric cooling module against the skin of the individual wearing the personal protection system.
