A helmet accessory mounting system includes a mounting device configured to couple to an outer surface of a side of a helmet. The mounting device includes a plurality of mounting locations configured to removeably couple to at least one accessory. A plurality of the plurality of mounting locations each includes an electrical node. A power supply is coupled to the mounting device. An electrical supply line electrically couples the power supply to each of the electrical nodes and the electrical supply line is contained at least partially within the mounting device.

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.

A face mask with embedded technology is provided. The face mask may include a face covering portion with attachment members. The attachment members are configured to secure the face covering portion to a face of a wearer. Technology may be embedded within the face covering portion, wherein the embedded technology enhances human expression of the wearer. The embedded technology may be a digital screen with a micro controller, a speaker with a micro controller, an air intake sensor, a visual element, a GPS device, a timer, or the like. Further, in some embodiments, the embedded technology is coupled to a user computing device, wherein the user computing device operates to provide additional control of the embedded technology.

There is disclosed a full-face mask to be worn in combination with a protective helmet having a suspension harness. The mask comprises a receiving channel interfacing with the suspension harness to secure the connection between them while preventing the safety helmet to physically interfere with or hinder wearing the mask. Thus, the combination of protective headgears may be worn with improved comfort and decreased risks of breaking the seal provided by the full-face mask.

A multiple component system is provided for mounting on a safety helmet and includes a first component housing carrying a first component, and a second component housing carrying a second component. Each housing has a first mount connector and a second mount connector located on opposing faces of the housing. The first mount connectors are configured to be compatible with the second mount connectors to provide quick release mount connections between the housings.

In an embodiment, a gyro sensor or virtual joystick controlled smart helmet may include a motorized and handsfree livestream video stabilization multi-camera system which can be remotely operated over a network. The gyro sensor or virtual joystick controlled smart helmet having a motorized moveable camera, a two way display communication unit via a OLED screen and 360 degree camera combination to enable Augmented Reality, a video and audio transmission system, a reflector for visibility in low light, a rechargeable battery, a carbon fiber plate for protection against battery malfunction, a headphone connection jack, a SIM card slot, a helmet power on/off switch, a power connector, a micro-gimbal camera module, a Bluetooth and Wi-Fi module, 6 way livestream stabilization using a combination of motors which double up to ensure that the smart helmet can be remotely controlled over a network using a custom application interface.

A protective sports helmet that includes an energy attenuating faceguard connection system, which includes at least one connector that secures the faceguard to the helmet shell without a connection point in the shell's brow region. The lack of a brow region connection point results in a gap or clearance between the faceguard and the shell that has a functional interplay with the connector upon an impact to the faceguard. In general terms, when a substantially on-center impact to the faceguard occurs, the faceguard is displaced towards the shell and the connector bracket flexes outward relative to the helmet shell to help dissipate impact energy.

A helmet including fit system straps with illuminable strips on them or woven into them and one or more light sources positioned adjacent the tops of the fit system straps on the helmet body to emit light toward the illuminable strips. The light sources may be connected directly to the illuminable strips to emit light into an end of the illuminable strips. The light sources may emit light from or near a lower surface of the helmet body toward the illuminable strips.
