A disposable cleaning mitt includes a waterproof inner layer having proximal and distal ends and defining a pliable cavity configured to encase a wearer's hand. The inner layer includes an opening at the proximal end for passing the wearer's hand therethrough to enter and exit the cavity. A cleaning layer is disposed on the inner layer such that the inner layer is between the cleaning layer and the cavity. A tab is situated and accessible from inside the cavity, the tab being operatively coupled to the inner layer and the cleaning layer such that passing the tab through the opening inverts the inner layer and the cleaning layer and undelineates the cavity. The tab is configured to be pulled by at least one finger of the wearer's hand. A fastener is positioned adjacent the opening for sealing the cleaning layer inside the inner layer.

A jacket includes a first back flap, a main body including a front portion and second back flap, and a pair of sleeves. The first back flap and the second back flap are detachably connectable to one another to selectively open and close an opening on the back side of the jacket. The first back flap may include a first connector disposed on an upper end of the first back flap and the second back flap may include a second connector disposed on an upper end of the second back flap, the first connector and the second connector being detachably connectable to one another to facilitate the opening and closing of the opening in the jacket. The jacket may also include a hood detachably connectable to a collar on the first back flap.

A gown with pleated opening for discrete elimination of urine and method of manufacture provides privacy to the wearer of a gown while the wearer eliminates urine through the penis. The gown has a gown body with an open posterior side that can be closed with a fastener. The gown has an opposing anterior side defined by a central section, which is approximately aligned with the penis when the gown is donned. The groin section forms a vertical slit that is sized to enable the wearer to easily egress and ingress a urine bottle, or the penis for elimination of urine. The slit is visibly not obvious when viewed from the front of the gown body because of one or more pleats that selectively cover the slit. The pleats are integral with the gown, formed along the longitudinal of the slit from the extra loose fabric from the central section.

A knee pad assembly is disclosed to protect the knee of a workman who kneels down while working on a work surface. The knee pad assembly includes a flexible upper knee cushion at which to receive and cover the workman's knee and a rigid lower base that lies on the work surface below the upper knee cushion. The lower base has a continuously curved bottom to rock back and forth on the work surface when the workman shifts his weight while kneeling. The upper knee cushion and the lower base are held one above the other against the knee of the workman by a knee pad strap that is wrapped around the workman's leg. A pair of springs (e.g., flexible carbon fiber sheets having a spring memory) extend across the lower base below the upper knee cushion so as to suspend the workman's knee above the work surface and flex in response to the workman's knee pushing down on the knee cushion.

A full-cover face filter mask includes a mask body presenting the outline of the face of the human body and having a cavity large enough to accommodate the face of the human body and an air inlet and an air outlet in communication with the cavity, and a splice frame made of a soft material and set to the mask body along the edge of the cavity. When the mask body is placed on the face of the human body, the face of the human body is fully contained in the cavity and the splice frame closely fits around the face of the human body, so that the mask body isolates the human body face and the external environment to prohibit the external air pollutants, viruses, etc. from touching the human face, avoiding infection of the human body and preventing disease.

A mask assembly, including a face covering portion, a pocket connected to the face portion and positioned to cover a wearer's nose and mouth, a connection portion operationally connected to the face covering portion, and a filter removably inserted in the pocket. The filter further includes a porous hydrophobic and lipophobic layer, a diamond-like carbon layer, an activated carbon layer, an N95 membrane, an anti-stick cloth layer, and a non-woven fabric layer.

A personal tactical system including a ballistic load-bearing garment, a pouch with one or more batteries enclosed in the pouch, an electronic processor, a communication device, and at least one camera. The camera is incorporated into or removably attachable to the load-bearing garment, the pouch is removably attachable to the load-bearing garment and the one or more batteries are operable to power the camera and communication device. The processor runs image recognition software operable to identify approaching objects and alert the user. A plurality of personal tactical systems is operable to form an ad hoc network to share images and other information for determining object direction, location, and movement.

A protective garment having a support harness conduit comprising a flexible transition duct and a flexible rope cover forming a sleeve vertically centered on the back of the garment, the transition duct being attached to both arm sections and the torso section of the garment, or attached to the back below the neck section extending to above the waist of the garment, the torso end of the transition duct having a width wider than the back of the garment; with the distal closure end of the rope cover having a closure device to close the conduit and reduce the interchange of fluids or particulates between the interior and the exterior of the garment; wherein the rope cover end of the transition duct has a width that is at least 30 percent the width of the back of the garment.

A tool, such as a respirator or gas mask, is provided. The respirator includes a body, a filter, an upper and lower strap, and a locking mechanism. The locking mechanism enables quick-release for fitting and/or adjusting the respirator on a user's head or face. In various embodiments, inelastic and elastic properties of the straps and/or a cord in the entwined region of the locking mechanism enhance the quick-release fit and adjustment of the locking mechanism.

A bra strap ornament assembly includes a panel that has a concealed side and an exposed side. The panel is positionable to extend across a torso strap of a strapless brassiere having the exposed side being exposed to conceal the torso strap. A pair of belts is each coupled to the panel. Each of the belts is matable to themselves to form a closed loop thereby facilitating each of the belts to be secured around the torso strap of the strapless brassiere. A pair of hooks is each coupled to a respective one of the belts. Each of the hooks releasably engages the respective belt when the respective belt is wrapped around the strap of the brassiere for tightening the belt around the strap.
