A balloon headdress, having a structure sized to fit a human head. Also, a plurality of engagement units is supported on the outside of the structure and a number of balloon retaining units, are engaged to the engagement units and adapted to receive, support and direct an inflated balloon to extend in a predetermined direction relative to each the balloon retaining unit. Each the balloon retaining unit includes a perimeter wall and a orthogonal septal wall, forming an upper cup and opposed lower cup, separated by the orthogonal septal wall, and wherein a vertical slot is defined in the perimeter wall and the orthogonal septal wall, whereby a tied balloon may be introduced, so that its knot is in the lower cup and a portion of balloon passes through the slot in the orthogonal septal wall and is supported in the upper cup.

A mask securing clips for attaching a face mask typically to the rim of a hat, such as a baseball cap, is typically fabricated a single unitary piece that includes a clip portion and a hook portion. The clip portion is generally U-shaped and configured to clip over an edge of a hat's rim typically on the left and right sides of the hat to be securely held thereon. The hook portion is typically formed on the outside surface of the U-shaped clip portion. The hook is configured to receive a loop strap of a face mask.

A sweat-absorbing pad for use with a headwear having a sweatband, which includes a body with a front surface that is configured to contact, at least in part, a user's head or forehead to absorb sweat; and a first clip. The first clip includes a clip body which includes a base, first and second legs, and a clip arm. The first and second legs extend from the base, and the clip arm extends from the base. The clip arm is substantially parallel to the first and second legs, and the clip arm is resilient to bias against the clip body. The clip body is substantially received in the body. Furthermore, the first clip, configured to receive at least a portion of the sweatband, fitted in between the body and the clip arm, such that the sweat-absorbing pad is detachably fixed to the sweatband.

A face shield and head covering combination is provided. The head covering comprises a body and an attachment element. The body defines a head opening configured to receive a user's head therethrough. The attachment element is coupled to the body and configured to couple to a face shield positionable on the user's face. The attachment element is configured to transition between a first position on the body and a second position on the body, wherein the second position is spaced from the first position.

A magnetic quick connect for a fluid delivery system includes a male coupling member and a female coupling member. The male coupling member defines a first outer fluid communication path and includes a first magnetic material. A first inner member is disposed within the first outer fluid communication path and defines a first inner communication path. The female coupling member defines a second outer fluid communication path and includes a second magnetic material. A second inner member is disposed within the second outer fluid communication path and defines a second inner communication path. The male and female coupling members are detachably held together by an attractive force between the first and second magnetic materials such that the first and second outer communication paths are held in fluid communication, and the first and second inner communication paths are held in fluid communication.

A head garment is made of elastically stretchable fabric configured to fit over and surround the head of a wearer and conform substantially to the shape of the wearer's head. The head garment has an eye opening positioned to allow the wearer to see therethrough, and a protective eye shield completely covering the eye opening. A multi-layer filter portion is configured to cover the wearer's mouth and at least a lower part of the wearer's nose and has three or more filter layers for filtering air during breathing. Additional filter layers may be added to the multi-layer filter portion to enhance or modify the filtering properties. The multi-layer filter portion may be configured as a removable filter pack that can be removed and replaced by other filter packs having different filtering properties.

A ball cap is provided that has a crown that has a highest crown point located in a vertical direction and a lowest crown point located in the vertical direction. A brim extends forward of the crown in a longitudinal direction of the ball cap, and the brim extends in the vertical direction to a highest brim point. The highest brim point is closer to the highest crown point in the vertical direction than to the lowest crown point in the vertical direction. In other versions of the ball cap, a crown is provided in the ball cap and in yet further versions portions of the crown can be covered by the brim.

Disclosed here is an extended use mask hat. The principal components are a hat member, a mask member and an attachment means. Under conditions where there is no desire for protection, the mask member can be easily stored against the interior surface of the hat member. When there is a desire for protection, the mask member can be easily and quickly donned. The service period of the mask hat is extendable by washing. Several technological problems are overcome, including, individual and community protection from the airborne spread of infectious disease in a manner that is effective, not noxious to human sensibility and not overly bearing.
