  • Publication number: 20080054691
    Abstract: Disclosed is a web adjuster assembly to allow tightening of a strap while preventing microslip of the strap when the web adjuster assembly is closed. The web adjuster assembly uses a second plate hingedly biased against a first plate with a strap laced through an opening on the first plate and through openings on the second plate such that when the two plates are substantially resting against one another, friction prevents the strap from being pulled back through the web adjuster assembly. However, simply lifting the second plate away from the first plate in an arc allows the strap to travel back through the web adjuster assembly, thereby allowing the strap to loosen.

  • Patent number: 4534068
    Abstract: A shock attenuation system comprising a plurality of shock attenuating columns of a substantially resilient elastomeric material. The columns are so dimensioned and configured that, when subjected to an axial impact force of predetermined magnitude, they resiliently deform for attenuating the shock resulting from the impact force. The columns then spring back substantially to their undeformed shape.
