The turn-lock fastener is rigidly incorporated in the helmet material and has cords which are guided from its two opposite sides along an inner side of the helmet to deflecting rollers, or deflecting points, on the helmet material, and then further guided therefrom along the strap to be tightened. The safety strap can be worn around the nape of the neck, or include a chin piece, among other manners of construction.

  • Patent number: 6094771
    Abstract: The WC cleaner has a wipe (3) which takes the form of a disposable wipe which is detachably retained on handle (1), off which it can be pushed.
