The present disclosure describes clips for lanyards, such as hard hat lanyards. The clips include opposing teeth that move to a closed/clamped position to secure a lanyard to a user, such as to the clothes of a user. The clip includes a body, a lever and a grip. Opposing teeth are located on the grip and body. The clip includes multiple pivoting connections between the body, lever and grip. The teeth on the grip may lie along an arcuate path and/or may have a tooth depth that facilitates engagement with material such as clothing.

Provided is a welding helmet maintaining a power-on state after initial power is applied thereto, the welding helmet including: a circuit unit controlling a shutter liquid crystal display (LCD) based on at least one of whether welding light exists and an intensity of the welding light; a power supply unit supplying power to the circuit unit; and a switch unit controlling electrical connection between the circuit unit and the power supply unit, wherein after being initially switched to an on state, the switch unit maintains the on state.

The present invention is directed to a helmet holder. The helmet holder allows a helmet to be safely stored in a way that does not compress the internal foam or scratch exterior painted or colored surfaces. It uses four upright, angled tabs to prevent front-to-back and side-to-side motion while allowing the bottom surface of the helmet to rest on somewhat horizontal surfaces. Each of the four tabs has a projection for hooking a bungee net, allowing the helmet to be safely constrained. The holder also has hooks for holding hangable items such as keys. It is expandable to add hooks for smaller items such as gloves and an adapter for hangers to hang jackets or full body suits.

A safety integrated electrically powered vehicle (SIPV) apparatus comprising an electric vehicle further comprising at least an integrated safety control apparatus wherein the integrated safety control apparatus polls a plurality of sensors to detect current SIPV data related to safe use, a communication link to an integrated safety control apparatus to transmit a plurality of data representative of the current use of a SIPV, and receive from the SIPV system at least an instruction received from the integrated safety control apparatus via the communication link to direct a plurality of control units on the SIPV to modify current operation parameters to bring the SIPV back to a safe use.

The invention relates to a support for helmets formed from a single body defining an upper surface (1) provided with adhesive that can be fixed to the outside of a helmet and a lower surface (2), wherein said body comprises three legs (3, 4) attached to one another at one of their ends, defining a Y shape. Preferably, the angle of separation () between two of said legs is 90 and the angle of separation () with the other leg is 135. Said support allows assuring the stability of a helmet when it is placed on a planar surface with the support, since said three legs act like a tripod.

A helmet rental system keeping the helmets in individual boxes that have a self-cleaning system built into the system to make the helmets safe for reuse. The full surface of the helmet is to be exposed to heat, possible steam, cleaner, one or more rotating brush(es) and/or UV light to clean the surface fully. The helmet holder allows the heat, steam, cleaner, brushes, and light to easily hit the surface. The cleaning system is based on heat and then cool off the box with AC and/or vent system before allowing the helmet to be rented again after each return. Heat comes from vents under the helmet holding system, holding it in place and/or from all around the helmet. Boxes are modular so one could simply remove a few screws to add or remove rows or boxes to the system to expand or reduce the amount of available helmets and configuration.

A holder for the secure transport and storage of various types of protective headgear that maintains secure support and retention of the headgear while protecting the brim. The device is versatile; it is adjustable, mountable, and portable; of sturdy construction, yet economical to produce. The device includes a self-contained mounting plate for permanent mounting on surfaces such as a wall or trailer rib. It has no moving parts with the exception of an included removable, swivel-able hook, which allows for multiple hanging options such as from a peg, a clothing rod, the pole of a vehicle headrest, the back edge of a chair, and door and cabinet knobs. The device includes an area configured to securely hold other items simultaneously while also holding headgear. The device supports headgear conveniently in positions of easy access, and allows for one-handed operation of both insertion and removal of the headgear when secured to a fixed element.

A particular embodiment of a storage system includes at least one storage device. The storage device can store working clothing. The storage system further includes a wired and/or wireless charging device. The wired and/or wireless charging device can transmit electrical energy to an energy storage unit of the work clothing. The wired and/or wireless charging device can charge different work-clothing items of the work clothing. The work clothing can be disposed in the storage device. The storage system further includes a sensor device that can sense a characteristic variable of the work clothing.

A helmet including a helmet shell for receiving a head of a wearer, the helmet shell defining therein: a connector chamber, and a connector aperture opening into the connector chamber; the connector chamber being shaped and configured to receive therein an anchor portion of at least one accessory, the at least one accessory being chosen from: a power connector for selectively powering the helmet; a garment for selectively powering the helmet; and a storage fixation for selectively receiving the helmet for storage, the helmet being configured to selectively secure the at least one accessory thereto by receiving the anchor portion of the at least one accessory in the connector chamber.

This invention provides a means of headgear storage and protection, along with other personal protective equipment, for use in sectors including, but not limited to: construction, mining, agriculture, utility, energy, recreational and military applications. This invention overcomes the disadvantages of the prior art by providing a device that can store multiple types of personal protective equipment at one time in a versatile and mobile form that can be used in any number of environments and can securely lock in and easily release headgear.
