A tear-off capture system includes an eye protector with a base lens. The eye protector has a retention mechanism mounted on one side, and a support mechanism that supports the eye protector on the head of a wearer. A two-tabbed stack of laminated tear-off lenses mounts to the eye protector via an adhesive. The stack mounts so that the first tab of the stack aligns with the first side of the eye protector and the second tab engages with the retention mechanism. Via the second tab and the retention mechanism, released tear-off layers are directed toward the second side of the eye protector away from the base lens. A capturer helps hold the initially released tear-off layer to the eye protector. An exposed tacky surface on each released tear-off helps hold the subsequently removed tear-off layers.

A multi-layer visor system for a surgical hood or garment is provided. The system includes a base film layer and one or more removable film layers that are coextruded at high temperature to form a sterile surface between each of the film layers should the surgeon elect to peel away a soiled or splattered removable film layer during the course of a surgical procedure so that an unobstructed view can be maintained. Thus, no separate sterilization step is required in order to sterilize the layers of the visor system. Each of the removable film layers can additionally include a tab having distinctive features in order to enable a wearer to easily distinguish between the tabs in order to make it easier for a wearer to know which tab to pull first to remove the outermost removable film layer. Further, because the tabs are located about the perimeter of the removable films, viewing is not obscured, yet the film layers are held securely in place until easily removed from the underlying removable film layer or base film layer.

An eye protector includes a lens configured to protect the wearer from projectiles, and an optically clear stack attached to the lens. The stack can have one or more removable layers. The eye protector also includes an optically clear dry mount adhesive layer attaching the stack to the lens. The dry mount adhesive may be self-wetting to attach the stack to the lens so that air between the stack and the lens can be removed after the stack is attached and/or adhered to the lens, for example, by applying pressure across the surface of the stack. The refractive indices of the lens, the dry mount adhesive, and each removable layer are matched to within about 0.2.

An Off-Road Rolling Film Vision System has a Controller Module (200), a Takeup Module (300), and a Rollout Module (400). The Controller Module (200) remotely controls a Motor (325) in the Takeup Module (300) with a Command Input (205) that has at least one Button to accept a knuckle bump for controlling a Motor (325) in the Takeup Module (300) when the Controller Module (200) is attached to a handlebar of an off-road vehicle. The Takeup Module (300) has a Motor Compartment (305), a Takeup Spool Compartment (310), a Takeup Spool Gear Compartment (315), a Takeup Film Window (320), a Motor (325), a Motor Gearbox (330), and at least one Takeup Spool Gear (340). The Takeup Module (300) may have a Takeup Spool Window (350) to provide a view of a Takeup Spool (345) within the Takeup Module (300).

An improvement of current lens roll-off systems is provided. The improvement embodies a goggle module operatively associated with a remote module by way of a wireless signal transmitted by a user engaging a remote button of the remote module, wherein the remote module may be removably connected along handlebars of the vehicle. The goggle module has an upper arm and lower arm, wherein the upper arm confirms the presence of the supply cannister of the lens roll-off system, and wherein the lower arm engages a pull cord of the lens roll-off systems. The wireless signal urges the pull cord by way of the lower arm, thereby the rider can automatically operate the lens roll-off system hands-free.
