Abstract:

An apparatus for mounting an antenna at the upper end of a mast. The antenna has a first electrical connector extending downward from its lower end. The mast has a second electrical connector extending upward from its upper end and is interengageable with the first connector. The apparatus comprises a head moveably adjustable on the upper end of the mast. The head has a skirt surrounding the mast and an upper surface. The upper surface has an opening therein dimensioned for passage of the connectors. The head is movable downwardly on the upper end of the mast to a lowered retracted position and movable upwardly on the upper end of the mast to a raised extended position. When the head is in its retracted position the second connector extends up through the opening above the upper surface for connection of the connectors. When the head is in its extended position the lower end of the first connector extends down through the opening and the head is in abutting relationship with the lower end of the antenna around the second connector. The apparatus further includes a mechanism for securing the head in its raised extended position to the mast.

Abstract:

A shoulder pad comprising a left-hand member which fits over the left shoulder and a right-hand member which fits over the right shoulder. Each of the members is of generally inverted U-shape as viewed from the side and has a chestplate portion, a backplate portion and an arch connecting the plate portions, the arches being laterally spaced to provide an opening for the neck of the wearer. Each of the members is fabricated from lightweight synthetic resin sheet material having a corrugated central layer formed with parallel corrugations, and a pair of generally parallel outer layers forming opposite exterior surfaces of the sheet material. The corrugations are resiliently deformable upon application of an impact load to the sheet material to attenuate the shock of the impact load on the wearer.
