Abstract: A helmet for protecting a head of a user, in which the helmet is adjustable to adjust how it fits on the user's head, including by adjusting dimensions of the helmet independently from one another (e.g., adjusting the helmet longitudinally and laterally in independent ways) and/or having a self-adjusting padded interface with the user's head to better fit on the user's head (e.g., depending on a shape and/or a size of the user's head).

Abstract: A method of fixing a clamp around a pipe comprises supporting the pipe between curved clamp parts, namely a cradle and shells, that are assembled in mutual opposition about the pipe while fabricating the clamp. By placing the pipe into the cradle and then bringing the shells into contact with the pipe, those opposed clamp parts are simultaneously in contact with the pipe. Initially, a gap is maintained at an interface between the clamp parts. A full penetration weld is then formed in the gap. As the weld cools and shrinks, the clamp parts are drawn together, to a mutual spacing narrower than the original gap, to compress the pipe between them. The clamp is suitable for attaching the pipe to a structure such as the frame of a subsea pipeline accessory, for example a valve in fluid communication with the pipe.

Abstract: A tonneau cover system for a vehicle includes at least two panels configured to collaboratively form a container. The at least two panels extend laterally when connected to a tonneau of the vehicle. A first panel is movable between an open position and a closed position to gain access to an interior space defined by the container. In the closed position, the first panel extends parallel to a floor of the tonneau. A second panel is selectively placed in a cover or a storage position. In the cover position, the second panel extends parallel to the floor to collaboratively cover at least part of the tonneau. In the storage position, the second panel extends perpendicular to the first panel in the closed position. The first and second panels collaboratively form the container when the first panel is in the closed position and the second panel is in the storage position.
