A filter mask for biological material is provided wherein the inlet port faces downwardly.

Partial bespoke protective sports equipment to be worn by a player engaged in a sporting activity is provided. The partial bespoke sports equipment system includes methods for acquiring, storing and processing a player's unique data, namely the anatomical features of the body part against which the partial bespoke equipment is worn. The systems also includes methods of using the player's unique data to manufacture the partial bespoke protective equipment with a partially custom formed internal padding. The system and method allows for the design and manufacture of partial bespoke protective sports equipment that is purposely designed and manufactured to substantially match the anatomical specifications of the player's body part.

A deflector selectively connectable to a helmet is disclosed. The helmet has a helmet shell and a jaw shield defining at least one jaw aperture configured to permit air flow therethrough. The deflector has a deflector body and at least one connecting protrusion receivable in the at least one jaw aperture to restrict air flow. A helmet having the deflector is disclosed. A helmet having a helmet shell, left and right holders having first and second connectors and a peak adjustable between first and second configurations is disclosed. The peak has left and right connecting portions, each having third and fourth connectors. The first connectors are rotationally connected to the third connectors. The second connectors are selectively connected to the fourth connectors in one of at least two positions. The second connectors are at a first position in the first configuration, and at a second position in the second configuration.

A surgical helmet assembly (30) to be worn by a user during surgical operations. The surgical helmet assembly includes a frame assembly (40) having a helmet shell (42) to be worn over the user's head. A fan (44) is coupled to the helmet shell to circulate air around the helmet shell. A headband assembly (78) is coupled to the helmet shell to secure the surgical helmet assembly to the head of the user. The surgical helmet assembly further includes an adjustment assembly (100) to adjust a sagittal fit of the helmet shell and the headband assembly to the head of the user while keeping a center of mass of the frame assembly in close proximity to the head of the user. The surgical helmet assembly further includes another adjustment assembly (118) concentric to the first adjustment assembly to adjust a circumferential fit of the headband assembly to the head of the user.

Implementations described herein include surgical helmet assemblies that have a helmet enclosure shaped to encircle a head of a user. The helmet enclosure retains a fan and includes a brow bar portion at a front of the helmet enclosure that is shaped to extend along a brow or a forehead of the user and having a light positioned therein. The helmet enclosure also includes a stabilizer extending downward from the helmet enclosure in front of the ears of a user, a face shield that is transparent and coupleable to at least the brow bar portion, a headband shaped to extend across an occiput region of the user's head, and a surgical garment for covering at least the head and shoulders of a user in use. The brow bar portion includes vents disposed therein to direct airflow pushed through the helmet enclosure from the fan onto the user. The face shield is coupleable to the helmet enclosure by one or more of a hook and loop fastener on the helmet enclosure or the stabilizer and a post protruding from the brow bar portion.

In one aspect, a protective headwear is provided and includes a headgear, an outer shell, a duct and a manifold. The headgear is configured to engage a wearer's head and at least partially support the protective headwear on a wearer's head. The headgear includes a front, a rear opposite the front, a right side, and a left side opposite the right side. The outer shell is coupled to the headgear at a coupling location and includes a shield positioned to the front of the headgear. The duct is at least partially coupled to and at least partially positioned in an interior of the outer shell. The duct is located below the coupling location. The manifold is positioned to the rear of the headgear and configured to divert airflow into at least a first portion of airflow and a second portion of airflow

A helmet and goggle strap clip combination includes a helmet body with an outer shell having an opening in a surface. The goggle strap clip includes a clip body and a resilient leg with a foot at an end of the leg, the foot having a foot body. A cover portion extends from the foot body in a first direction and a support fin extends from the foot body in a second direction opposite the first direction. The foot is configured to engage the opening in the outer shell of the helmet with the cover portion overlapping a portion of the outer shell and the support fin being positioned inside of the outer shell.

The present invention relates to a re-usable head gear (100). The re-usable head gear (100) includes a fan and filter assembly (102), a replaceable multi-layered filter assembly (104), air leakage proof housing (106), a fan inlet (108) a strain gauge mechanism (112), a tube housing (114), a head band (116), a neck band (118), a low voltage wiring (120), a micro plug and socket assembly (122), an anti-static wire mesh tape (124), a customized hybrid microcircuit amplifier (128), external speakers (130), high clarity hi-fidelity dual speakers (132), and a microphone (134).
