  • Patent number: 11272770
    Abstract: A wearable radio support system has a shoulder strap connectable to a radio holder and an elongate strap extending therefrom. The shoulder strap has a shoulder-contact portion that includes a first set and a second set of attachment features. The elongate strap has a first end with a first fastener and a second fastener that are releasably attachable to either of the first set or the second set of attachment features of the shoulder strap. The first fastener connects to a first feature of either of the first or second set of attachment features and provides a point of rotation for the elongate strap relative to the shoulder strap and the second fastener connects to a second feature of the same set of attachment features to anchor the elongate strap to the shoulder strap, thereby the first end of the elongate strap no longer rotates about the first feature.

  • Patent number: 11043137
    Abstract: Devices for simulating a transportation emergency are disclosed. The devices have a base with a framework of interconnected supports extending therefrom as a skeletal portion of a simulated transportation device and defining a chamber configured to receive a human or a medical-training manikin. Within the chamber a seat for receiving the human or the medical-training manikin is disposed. The framework defines one or more openings representative of access openings into the simulated transportation device such that a first responder in-training can receive instructions on how to assist a victim positioned in the simulated transportation device. The framework also defines one or more open frames representative of structural features of the simulated transportation device that block access to the victim such that realistic training occurs. The device may include one or more props such as a telescoping steering column, a prying simulator, a foot pedal unit, and a side impact bar.

  • Patent number: 10595603
    Abstract: A wearable radio support has a radio mount portion and a belt attachment strap. The radio mount portion includes an attachment scaffold with a first end receivable through a loop on a radio or radio holder and foldable upon a secondary section of the attachment scaffold to enclose the loop, a spacing extension member extending from the attachment scaffold thereby spacing the attachment scaffold a preselected distance from the belt, and a first fastener coupled to the spacing extension member at an end opposite the attachment scaffold. The belt attachment strap has a first end and a second end, a sleeve defining a channel therethrough adapted to receive a belt of a user, and a second fastener coupled to the first end of the belt attachment strap. The second fastener is rotatable about the first end and is releasably attachable to the first fastener of the radio mount portion.

  • Publication number: 20180158354
    Abstract: Devices for simulating a transportation emergency are disclosed. The devices have a base with a framework of interconnected supports extending therefrom as a skeletal portion of a simulated transportation device and defining a chamber configured to receive a human or a medical-training manikin. Within the chamber a seat for receiving the human or the medical-training manikin is disposed. The framework defines one or more openings representative of access openings into the simulated transportation device such that a first responder in-training can receive instructions on how to assist a victim positioned in the simulated transportation device. The framework also defines one or more open frames representative of structural features of the simulated transportation device that block access to the victim such that realistic training occurs. The device may include one or more props such as a telescoping steering column, a prying simulator, a foot pedal unit, and a side impact bar.

  • Patent number: 9955761
    Abstract: User-wearable remote speaker mic (RSM) holders for positioning a remote speaker mic relative to the mouth of the wearer are disclosed as well as a wearable radio support system including the same. The RSM holders include an elongate body having a first end and a second end and a first major side extending from the first end to the second end, and RSM attachment member positionable along the length of the first major side. The first end of the elongate body is releasably attachable to or is permanently attached to a donnable article of clothing or donnable gear, and a first attachment member is positioned at or proximate the second end of the elongate body and is connectable to a feature of the donnable article of clothing and/or the donnable gear.
