A helmet can comprise an upper-body and a lower-body nested within the upper-body. An opening can be formed within a front portion of the helmet and disposed between an outer surface of the upper-body and an inner surface of the lower-body. A first magnet can be encased within the upper-body or the lower-body and adjacent the opening. A shield can comprise a shield mount and a second magnet coupled to the shield mount that is sized to fit within the opening and to be releasably coupled to the first magnet. The first magnet and the second magnet can be self-aligned in direct alignment with eyes of a user. A third magnet can be disposed above the first magnet and aligned with the second magnet on an outer surface of the helmet out of sight from eyes of the user.

Helmet vent bezel

A helmet may include a helmet body, a fit system, a bezel, and a hardware retainer. The helmet body may have an outer shell and an energy management layer. The bezel may be separate from the outer shell and coupled to the helmet body at the vent opening of the helmet, encircle the vent opening, and have a hardware opening extending through the bezel and an anchor opening in the bezel adjacent the hardware opening. The hardware retainer may be positioned behind and coupled to the bezel. The hardware retainer may include a hardware receiving aperture aligned with the hardware opening and a hardware retainer cover coupled to a rear side of the hardware retainer. The hardware retainer may further include an anchor recess aligned with the anchor opening. The bezel may be in-molded into the energy management layer.

One variation of a system for serving augmented visual content to a user includes: a visor including a substrate of a transparent material and a reflective coating applied across the substrate, configured to selectively reflect visible light within a first reflection channel, and configured to transmit wavelengths of visible light outside of the first reflection channel, wherein the first reflection channel spans a first band of wavelengths; a projection system configured to project visual content in a first output channel onto an interior surface of the visor, the first output channel including a first peak-power wavelength of visible light within the first reflection channel and excluding wavelengths of visible light outside the first reflection channel; and a support structure configured to locate the visor on the user's head with the visor in a field of view of the user and configured to locate the projection system relative to the visor.

HELMET WITH A REVERSIBLE VISOR

The invention relates to an improved helmet. The helmet has a visor that can quickly and easily attach and detach from a forward-facing position on the front portion of the helmet to a backward-facing position on the rear portion of the helmet.

Respirator device with light exposure detection

A system including a head-mounted device having a face shield; a respirator coupled to or embodied in the head mounted device; a light having a light intensity; a light detector, and a computing device communicatively coupled to the at least one light detector that receive from the light detector data indicting a type and intensity of light, and determine that the light matches a particular type of light and whether it exceeds a threshold, and on the basis of this determination, modifies the intensity of the light.

PROTECTIVE VISOR FOR A FOREST HELMET
20170303626 · 2017-10-26 ·

In this publication is described a traditional forest helmet visor (1), plus in accordance with the invention a lightweight and ventilated plastic frame-body (3) that is connected to downparts of the visor (1) and a fabric-curtain (2) fastened into the inner circle of the framebody (3). The true function of the framebody (3) is to position a lightweight and elastic fabric-curtain (2) to an optimal location near the upper part of neck. For setting work mode the backsides of the framebody (3) can be connected either to the hearing protector structure or those can be connected together by express hooks being in each other's endparts. With these solutions the fabric-curtain (2) can be positioned as aimed broadly round the circle of the upper neck. As a result the fabric-curtain (2) is properly interlaced and efficiently supplyes protection for the bare nec and face areas together with the current workwear. Due to the protection a general mobility in brushwoods is getting simpler and that equally enables a rise in working performance. The improved mobility is quite an advantage specially in clearingsaw-work, because it as a workform requires more motion just among branches. In addition the hearing protectors can be equipped with quite a familiar fabric-curtains and hangers as well. In the combimodell the backsides of the framebody (3) can be sized significantly shorter (21) accordingly and there is no purpose for any fastening elements for work mode.
