[0009] Headgears are used in various endeavors, such as sports, police and military applications. Typically, military and police personnel carry variety of accessories, such as Night Vision Devices (NVD), lamps, face visors, oxygen masks, and cameras, during training. Such accessories provide additional capability to the headgear and/or additional protection to a wearer of the headgear. Nowadays, these accessories are attached to the headgears to allow ease in movement of the police or military personnel by keeping their hands free to hold other equipment.

[0010] Presently, to attach the accessories to the headgear, holes are drilled in the headgear to fix an attachment system on which accessories may be mounted. However, drilling of holes in the headgear compromise ballistic strength or protection capability of the headgear and the headgear may not serve its intended purpose. In addition, the wearer may have to carry additional tools for attaching and detaching the attachment system to the headgear. In addition, such attachment system may involve external assistance. Besides, such mounting of the attachment system may be cumbersome and time consuming for the wearer. In an alternate approach, the accessories may be attached to the headgear by means of an adhesive tape. The adhesive tape; however, may not support the accessories for longer duration of time. Moreover, in case of heavy accessories, the adhesive tape cannot be relied upon as the adhesive tape may be unable to hold the weight of the heavy accessories.

[0011] Since geometry of each headgear is different for different size, the attachment systems should be as per a specific headgear geometry. Conventional mounting facilities are specific to the size of the headgear and do not fit on different sized headgears.

[0012] Approaches for mounting accessories on a headgear, especially a headgear employed by police and military personnel, are described herein. The present subject matter includes a multiple accessory connector system (hereinafter referred to as a connector system) for facilitating mounting of different accessories on the headgear. The connector system provides a plurality of frames for facilitating attachment of multiple accessories to the headgear. The plurality of frames includes multiple slots that facilitate in adjusting the connector system as per the shape and size of the headgear. Further, the plurality of frames is detachably connected to each other.

[0013] In an implementation, the connector system includes a first slotted frame adapted to be mounted on the outer shell of the headgear. In an example, when the headgear fitted with the first slotted frame is worn by a wearer, the first slotted frame is positioned towards a ventral side of the wearer. Further, the first slotted frame may include a plurality of slots to facilitate adjustment of the connector system across a periphery of the outer shell of the headgear. For example, based on the size of the headgear, the connector system may be adjusted across the outer shell of the headgear. To attach accessories, a front bracket is disposed on the first slotted frame. The front bracket is configured to receive a first holder, such as a removable hook, to attach a plurality of accessories thereto. In an example, the first holder facilitates in mounting vision enhancing accessories, such as Night Vision Devices (NVD), visors, and lights to the headgear.

[0014] The connector system further includes a second slotted frame having a left arm, a right arm, and a serrated channel connecting the left arm with the right arm. The serrated channel is disposed in a manner so as to allow adjustment of the connector system. For example, at one end, the serrated channel is engaged by a latch which is disposed on either the left arm or the right arm. And at another end, the serrated channel is fixed at appropriate slots of the second slotted frame, to adjust the connector system according to the size of the headgear. [0015] In an implementation, the second slotted frame is connected to the first slotted frame by a pair of lateral frames, such that the second slotted frame is mounted diametrically opposite to the first slotted frame on the outer shell of the headgear. The pair of lateral frames is connected to appropriate slots of the first slotted frame and the second slotted frame to provide a tightly fit connector system. When connected together, the first slotted frame, the second slotted frame, and the pair of lateral frames circumscribe an outer shell of the headgear. Accordingly, the connector system may be assembled without using external tools. This offers ease in handling (assembling or disassembling) of the connector system. In an example, each of the lateral frames is adapted to receive a second holder for holding one or more accessories, such as an oxygen mask and a communication device. [0016] Accordingly, the first slotted frame and the second slotted frame of the connector system facilitates in tightly fitting the connector system on the headgear. In addition, each of the first slotted frame, the second slotted frame and the pair of lateral frames facilitates in mounting multiple accessories on the headgear without drilling any holes in the headgear. Therefore, the connector system maintains the rigidity and the ballistic strength of the headgear. Further, as the plurality of frames of the connector system is detachably secured to each other, assembling and disassembling of the connector system can be performed quickly and without additional tools or expertise. In addition, the first slotted frame and the second slotted frame facilitate in adjusting the connector system based on the size of the headgear. As a result, the connector system of the present subject matter can be secured onto headgears of different sizes.

[0017] The present subject matter is further described with reference to the accompanying figures. Wherever possible, the same reference numerals are used in the figures and the following description to refer to the same or similar parts. It should be noted that the description and figures merely illustrate principles of the present subject matter. It is thus understood that various arrangements may be devised that, although not explicitly described or shown herein, encompass the principles of the present subject matter. Moreover, all statements herein reciting principles, aspects, and examples of the present subject matter, as well as specific examples thereof, are intended to encompass equivalents thereof.

[0018] FIG. 1 illustrates a top view 100 of a multiple accessory connector system 102 (hereinafter referred to as connector system 102), secured to a headgear 150, according to an example implementation of the present subject matter. In an example, the headgear 150 is a helmet.

The serrated channel 1 14 may facilitate in adjusting the connector system 102 based on a size of the headgear 150. In an example, the serrated channel 1 14 is coupled to the left arm 1 12-1 of the second slotted frame 1 10 by means of a latch 1 16. The latch 1 16 holds the serrated channel 1 14 from one end and another end of the serrated channel 1 14 may be removably secured to an appropriate slot of the right arm 1 12-2.

[0021] In an example, the first slotted frame 104 and the second slotted frame 1 10 are connected to each other by a pair of lateral frames 1 1 8. The pair of lateral frames 1 18 may be made of a polymeric material, such as Nylon 6, Nylon 6.6, Acetal, Polyester or any similar polymeric material. In an example, each of the lateral frames 1 18 is detachably connected to the first slotted frame 104 and the second slotted frame 1 10. Like the serrated channel 1 14, the pair of lateral frames 1 18 also facilitate in adjusting the connector system 102 according to the size of the headgear 150. Details pertaining to adjusting the connector system 102 will be described in later paragraphs.

[0022] The above aspects and further details are described in conjunction with FIGS. 2A and 2B. FIG. 2A illustrates an exploded view 200 of a multiple accessory connector system 102, according to an example implementation of the present subject matter. In an example, the connector system 102 is designed to be mounted on an outer shell, such as the outer shell 152 of the headgear 150. FIG. 2B illustrates a side view 250 of an assembled multiple accessory connector system 102, according to an example implementation of the present subject matter.

[0023] The connector system 102 may be understood as an attachment facility on which combat accessories may be mounted either directly or with the help of some connector. In an example, the connectors may include a NVD-mount and a picatinny rail. For instance, certain models of flashlights may be mounted directly on the connector system 102; however, other models of the flashlights can only be mounted on the connector system 102 through Picatinny rails or some different connector.

[0024] As described with respect to FIG. 1 , the connector system 102 may include the first slotted frame 104 to be mounted on the outer shell 152 of the headgear 150. In an example, the first slotted frame 104 when attached to the headgear 150 may be positioned above a forehead of a wearer. The first slotted frame 104 may include a plurality of slots 202-1 , 202-2, ...202-N, collectively referred to as slots 202 and individually referred to as a slot 202. In one implementation, the slots 202 may facilitate in adjusting the connector system 102 across the outer shell 152 of the headgear 150. In an example implementation, the first slotted frame 104 may be made of a High-Density Polyethylene (HDPE) material or a Nylon material or a Polyester material or an Acetal material.

[0025] The first slotted frame 104 may include the front bracket 106 disposed at a central portion of the first slotted frame 104. In an example, the front bracket 106 may be disposed at any region across the first slotted frame 104. The front bracket 106 is adapted to receive the first holder 108 to attach a plurality of accessories to the headgear 150. In an implementation, the front bracket 106 is provided with a latch (not shown) to engage the first holder 108. In an example, the first holder 108 may be a removable hook. The first holder 108 may facilitate in mounting vision enhancing accessories, such as a Night Vision Device (NVD), a face visor, and a lamp to the headgear 150.

[0026] In an implementation, the front bracket 106 may be configured to receive the first holder 108 of different shapes, based on the headgear 150 on which the connector system 102 is attached. For example, the front bracket 106 may receive the first holder 108 for an Advanced Combat Headgear (ACH) as well as for a Personnel Armor System for Ground Troops (PASGT) headgear.

[0027] The connector system 102 may further include the second slotted frame 1 10 having a left arm 1 12-1 , a right arm 1 12-2, and a serrated channel 1 14. In an example, each of the left arm 1 12-1 and the right arm 1 12- 2 is provided with a holding member 204 for mounting any accessory to the headgear 150. In an example, the holding member 204 may be a hook, a loop, a groove, and the like. In another example, the holding member 204 may be detachably mounted on the left arm 1 12-1 and the right arm 1 12-2. Further, the holding member 204 may be, for example, made from plastic, stainless steel, or forge-hardened steel.

[0028] In an implementation, the serrated channel 1 14 may be disposed between the left arm 1 12-1 and the right arm 1 12-2 of the second slotted frame 1 10. In an example, either of the left arm 1 12-1 or the right arm 1 12-2 may be provided with a latch 1 16, such as a spring loaded latch. While assembling, one end of the serrated channel 1 14 is connected to the latch 1 16 and the other end of the serrated channel 1 14 is connected to the opposite arm of the second slotted frame 1 10. Though the present subject matter describes that the serrated channel 1 14 is connected through the latch 1 16, it will be understood that the any other fastener may be employed instead of the latch 1 16 for connecting the serrated channel 1 14.

[0029] Further, the latch 1 16 may be used for locking and unlocking the serrated channel 1 14 with the second slotted frame 1 10. Accordingly, the serrated channel 1 14 facilitates in adjusting the connector system 102 according to a size of the headgear 150. Thereby, the serrated channel 1 14 enables the connector system 102 to be used with any size of headgear 150. In an example implementation, the serrated channel 1 14 is made of a mix of polypropylene and nylon materials.

[0030] In an implementation, the second slotted frame 1 10 is connected to the first slotted frame 104 such that the second slotted frame 1 10 is positioned diametrically opposite to the first slotted frame 104. In an example, the first slotted frame 104 is connected to the second slotted frame 1 10 by the pair of lateral frames 1 18. In an example, the pair of lateral frames 1 18 is detachably or fixedly connected to the first slotted frame 104 and the second slotted frame 1 10. As may be seen in FIG. 2A, the pair of lateral frames 1 18 connect with the first slotted frame 104 and the second slotted frame 1 10 by a fastening mechanism 206, such as a spring loaded stud. The fastening mechanism 206 offers ease in adjusting the connector system 102 across the outer shell 152. In addition, the fastening mechanism 206 facilitates in forming an integrated connector system 102. [0031] The fastening mechanism 206, though described as a spring loaded stud, may include any other fastener that provides ease in adjustment of the connector system 102. Further, each of the lateral frames 1 18 may be adapted to receive a second holder 208. In an example, the second holder 208 is a hook that facilitates in attaching accessories, such as oxygen mask, to the headgear 150. The pair of lateral frames 1 18 may be made of a nylon or similar material.

[0032] In order to assemble the connector system 102, the front bracket 106 is slipped on to the first slotted frame 104. In an example, the front bracket 106 is positioned at a central portion of the first slotted frame 104. As mentioned previously, the front bracket 106 is configured to receive the holder 108 so as to enable mounting of different accessories to the headgear 150. To attach the holder 108 with the front bracket 106, the holder 108 is aligned with the latch provided at a back portion of the front bracket 106. Once aligned, the holder 108 is pulled down such that the holder 108 is locked with the latch of the front bracket 106.

[0033] Thereafter, the first slotted frame 104 is connected to the second slotted frame 1 10 such that the second slotted frame 1 10 is positioned diametrically opposite to the first slotted frame 104. In an example, when connected, the first slotted frame 1 04 is positioned on the outer shell 152 above a forehead of the wearer and the second slotted frame 1 10 is positioned on the outer shell 152 at a back side of a head (behind the forehead) of the wearer.

[0034] The connection between the first slotted frame 104 and the second slotted frame 1 10 is established by the pair of lateral frames 1 18. The pair of lateral frames 1 18 may be employed for mounting and tightening the connector system 102 on the outer shell 152 of the headgear 150. In an example, the pair of lateral frames 1 18 connects the first slotted frame 104 with the second slotted frame 1 10 by the fastening mechanism 206, such as a spring stud. The fastening mechanism 206 acts as a push button to provide ease in adjustment of the connector system 102 as per the size of the headgear 150. The fastening mechanism 206 also enables quick attachment of the connector system 102 onto the headgear 150 without utilizing external tools for attachment.

[0035] Once the first slotted frame 104 and the second slotted frame 1 10 is connected, the serrated channel 1 14 is placed between the left arm 1 12-1 and the right arm 1 12-2 of the second slotted frame 1 10. In order to engage the serrated channel 1 14, one end of the serrated channel 1 14 is coupled to the latch 1 16 and another end of the serrated channel 1 14 is coupled to an appropriate slot of the second slotted frame 1 10. Accordingly, the serrated channel 1 14 facilitates in tightening the connector system 102. In an example, the connector system 102 is made of at least one of a nylon material, a polypropylene material, or a high density polyethylene (HDPE) material. Such a composition makes the connector system 102 slip resistant which facilitates a person to secure the connector system 102 onto the headgear 150 even while wearing gloves.

[0036] FIG. 3 depicts another side view 300 of the multiple accessory connector system 102 secured to the headgear 150, according to another example implementation of the present subject matter.

In an implementation, the lateral arm 1 18 is connected to the first slotted frame 104 by means of the fastening mechanism 206. The fastening mechanism 206 is configured to adjust, such as tighten or loosen, the connector system 102 based on the size of the headgear 150. [0037] As depicted in the present figure, the lateral arm 1 18 may include a hole 302 for receiving the fastening mechanism 206, such as a spring stud. Further, as mentioned previously, the first slotted frame 104 includes the slots 202. The slots 202 may be used for adjusting the connector system 102 based on the size of the headgear 150. [0038] In order to mount the connector system 102 on a headgear 150, for example, of extra-large size, the stud in the fastening mechanism 206 may be pressed such that the spring in the fastening mechanism 206 is disengaged from the slots 202. Thereafter, the hole 302 is aligned with a slot nearest to the lateral frame 1 18, such as the slot 202-1 . Thereafter, the stud of in fastening mechanism 206 may be released such that the spring in the fastening mechanism 206 is engaged with the slot 202-1 . Likewise, the fastening mechanism 206 may be adjusted to engage any of the slots 202-2 and 202-3, based on the size of the headgear 150.

[0039] In an implementation of the present subject matter, each of the lateral frames 1 18 may include one or more apertures, such as apertures 304. The apertures 304 may facilitate the pair of lateral frames 1 18 to mount various accessories, such as a video camera, goggles, and communication systems, thereon.

[0040] Fig. 4 illustrates a method 400 for securing a multiple accessory connector system, such as the connector system 102, to a headgear, such as the headgear 150, according to another example implementation of the present subject matter. The connector system 102 may be understood as an attachment facility on which combat gears or other accessories may be mounted either directly or with the help of some connector. In an example, the connectors may include a NVD-mount and a picatinny rail. Any number of the described method blocks can be combined in any order to implement the method 400, or any alternative methods. Additionally, individual blocks may be deleted from the method 400 without departing from the scope of the subject matter described herein.
