Abstract: A tape measure including an elongate tape blade is shown. The tape measure includes a protective bumper that extends below the tape opening. The bumper is shaped to allow the tape hook to pivot during drop or impact to reduce the impact force experienced by the tape hook.

Abstract: A coupling assembly for safety headwear is provided. The coupling assembly includes one or more apertures within safety headwear, such as a hard hat, and a coupling structure that couples to the one or more apertures. The coupling structure includes one or more surfaces that interface with the safety headwear. The coupling structure includes a protrusion that defines one or more widths, and the protrusion extends through the one or more apertures.

Abstract: Earmuffs with a joint are provided to create a biased pressure distribution about a perimeter of the cup. The earmuffs may include a pivot joint. The pressure distribution creates a wedging pressure (e.g., on a top edge) on the cups that hold the earmuffs on the user's head, for example, when the user rotates the headband behind the head. The bias pressure is also used to adjust the seal formed between the pad and the user's head. Adjustments to the moment created by separating the joints from the cup's apex enable a user to selectively adjust the seal according to the user's preference. A cam is added to the headband to change the hoop stress distributed at the joints and further adjust the compressive forces generated to hold the earmuffs against the user's head.

Abstract: A tape measure including a reinforced or coated tape measure blade is provided. The reinforcement layer is thicker than the metal inner layer of the tape blade. The reinforcement layer provides a reinforced tape blade such that the elongate tape blade may have a pinch load threshold of greater than 30 lbs. and/or a pinch height at break of less than 1.5 mm.
