Abstract: Protective eyewear such as goggles (12) are provided with a frame (14) lens (20) and a pair of tabs (30) protruding from a front (32) of the lens (20) at lateral positions, to receive tear off sheets. The frame (14) includes lateral attachment formations (28) that can engage complemental attachment formations (46) on removable roll holders (34,36). Each roll holder (34,36) includes an anchor formation (50) with a recess (54) in which one of the tabs (30) is receivable. The roll holders (34,36) can be fitted on the attachment formations (28) and tabs (30) to use a roll-off system, or can be removed to use a tear off system. The frame (14) preferably has pivoting outriggers (22) which include the attachment formations (28), so that the roll holders (34,36) are attached to the outriggers (22) and can pivot off the lens (20) with the outriggers (22).

Abstract: A helmet has an inner liner having a body of molded protective material. The body forms an inner cavity adapted to be mounted on a wearer's head to cover portions thereof. An outer shell is secured to and covers the inner liner and forms a generally continuous exposed surface of the helmet. A peripheral edge of the outer shell defines a lower contour of the helmet. Slits are defined in the outer shell and project generally upward from the peripheral edge. Flaps are defined each slit and by material of the outer shell deformed to an open position from a tucked position to open the lower contour of the helmet. A mechanism connects each flap to a remainder of the helmet at least in the tucked position.

Abstract: A helmet has an inner liner made of foam material forming a body of the helmet. The inner liner has a convex outer surface and a concave inner surface defining a cavity for receiving the wearer's head. The inner liner has a plurality of beams extending from front to rear of the helmet and spaced apart to form vents therebetween, the vents being free of foam material between adjacent beams. Rigid bridge members are comolded with the inner liner to be partially concealed in the inner liner, the at least one bridge member having at least one bridge projecting out of the foam material of two adjacent beams and extending transversely in at least one of the vents. At least one strap is provided to attach the helmet to a wearer's head.

Abstract: A fitting system for a helmet comprises a housing. Lateral tapes are to be connected to a helmet component, and are received in the housing, the lateral tapes enabling a lateral adjustment of the fitting system. A longitudinal tape is connected to a helmet component, with a second end received in the housing, the longitudinal tape enabling a longitudinal adjustment of the fitting system. A first locking mechanism operatively is connected to the lateral tapes and rotatable clockwise and counterclockwise to adjust the lateral adjustment and lock the lateral tapes at the adjusted lateral adjustment. A second locking mechanism is operatively connected to the second end of the longitudinal tape and is rotatable clockwise and counterclockwise to adjust the longitudinal adjustment and lock the longitudinal tape at the adjusted longitudinal adjustment.

Abstract: A helmet comprising an inner liner made of foam material forming a body of the helmet. The inner liner has a convex outer surface and a concave inner surface defining a cavity for receiving the wearers. The inner liner has a plurality of beams extending from front to rear of the helmet and spaced apart to form vents therebetween, the vents being free of foam material between adjacent beams. Rigid bridge members are comolded with the inner liner to be partially concealed in the inner liner, the at least one bridge member having at least one bridge projecting out of the foam material of two adjacent beams and extending transversely in at least one of the vents. Means are provided to attach the helmet to a wearers head.

Abstract: A stabilization strap apparatus for a helmet having a shell with at least one chin strap having a left section and a right section connected to the shell, includes an adjusting assembly shaped to fit a rear occipital portion of a wearer's cranium; and a left occipital strap section and a right occipital strap section, each strap section having a first end securable respectively to the left section and the right section of the at least one chin strap, downwardly of and spaced-apart from the casket shell and a second end slidably attached to the adjusting assembly.

Abstract: Corrugated cardboard that resists the growth of mold includes single and double face liners produced with pulp and starch where the latter is diluted with water to which biocides have been added. The liner biocides include 5-chloro-2-methyl-4-isothiazolin-3-one, hypochlorite and sodium hydroxide and sodium bromide. A fluted medium is sandwiched between the single and double face liners with an adhesive that is produced with diluted starch and to which biocides have also been added. The biocides in the adhesive include 1,2-benzothiazol-3(2H)-one and poly[oxyethylene(dimethyliminio)ethylene dichloride].
