In this manner, the light source 66 can be easily mounted to and removed from the adaptor bracket 46 without the need for prior detachment of the latter from the helmet 14.
  • the light source 66 can be easily installed on the adaptor bracket 46 either vertically, i.e. along the direction of arrow D as illustrated in Figure 4B, or horizontally depending on which retaining groove 58 the arm of the clip 68 is engaged in.
  • the light source 66 can also be mounted with reversed orientations of the battery housing 70 and the light emitting element 72 of the light source 66, which can therefore be attached to the helmet 14 so that light is illuminated therefrom in any desired direction.

  • Providing such wires as in 76 alleviates the need for providing an external interconnection between supply and devices.
  • the battery pack 74 (e.g. a battery pack for powering night vision goggles, not shown) may be retained in the bracket 46 using a battery pack adaptor 80 that is snap-fitted to the bracket 46 in the direction of arrow E.
  • the battery pack 74 is then mounted to the thus secured battery pack adaptor 80 in the direction indicated by arrow F and attached thereto (i.e. snap-fitted or using fasteners, such as nuts, bolts, or the like, not shown) to power various equipment mounted to the helmet (reference 14 in Figure 1 B).
  • the battery pack 74 can be subsequently removed by disengaging the battery pack adaptor 80 from the bracket 46 and retracting the battery pack 74 in the opposite direction.
  • the 64 and the battery pack adaptor 80 are illustratively each snap-fitted on the adaptor bracket 46 via raised lips as in 82 extending away from a rear surface of the latching mechanism 64 and the battery pack adaptor 80 and designed to engage and be retained within the retaining grooves 58 of the adaptor bracket 46.

  • a strap or harness may be provided to enable attachment of the face protecting equipment, such as the goggles 90, to the helmet 14.
  • the strap may illustratively be held in place by a pair of clips (not shown) attached to the helmet 14 using a suitable fastener (e.g. adhesive) to better retain the goggles 90 in place relative to the helmet 14.
  • a lower portion of the clips may further be secured to the mounting plates (reference 50 in Figure 4A) of the adaptor bracket 46 using fasteners, such as bolts (not shown), while the strap may be attached to the equipment receiving plate (reference 48 in Figure 4A) using such fasteners.
