The vent adapter can include a first attachment surface and a second attachment surface. A mount can be configured to secure into the vent adapter. The mount can include a first attachment portion configured to mate with the first attachment surface. The mount can also include a second attachment portion configured to mate with the second attachment surface.
1. An apparatus, comprising: a helmet including at least one vent; a vent adapter configured to secure into the at least one vent from an outside of the helmet, wherein the vent adapter includes a first attachment surface and a second attachment surface; and a mount configured to removably secure into the vent adapter from the outside of the helmet such that at least a portion of the mount extends into the at least one vent; wherein: the mount includes a first attachment portion configured to mate with the first attachment surface; and the mount includes a second attachment portion configured to mate with the second attachment surface, wherein the second attachment portion is slidably coupled to the mount such that the second attachment portion slides independent of the first attachment portion, wherein the second attachment portion is a wedge clip that is slidably coupled to the mount.
2. The apparatus of claim 1 , wherein the second attachment portion is spring loaded.
3. The apparatus of claim 1 , wherein the vent adapter comprises an opening located in a center of the vent adapter.
4. The apparatus of claim 3 , wherein the opening is configured to provide ventilation to the helmet.
5. The apparatus of claim 1 , wherein the vent adapter comprises a vent adapter body and at least two retention portions.
6. The apparatus of claim 5 , wherein the vent adapter body is contoured to match an area surrounding the at least one vent.
7. The apparatus of claim 5 , wherein the at least two retention portions are configured to clip into a helmet shell of the helmet.
8. The apparatus of claim 5 , wherein the at least two retention portions are configured to clip into the helmet.
9. The apparatus of claim 1 , wherein the mount is configured to carry an accessory.
10. The apparatus of claim 9 , wherein the mount is configured to change the direction of the accessory.
11. An apparatus, comprising: a helmet including at least one vent, wherein the at least one vent includes a vent surface defining an opening of the at least one vent, the vent surface including a first attachment surface and a second attachment surface; and a mount configured to removably secure into the at least one vent from an outside of the helmet such that at least a portion of the mount extends into the at least one vent; wherein: the mount includes a first attachment portion configured to mate with the first attachment surface; and the mount includes a second attachment portion configured to mate with the second attachment surface, wherein the second attachment portion is slidably coupled to the mount such that the second attachment portion slides independent of the first attachment portion, wherein the second attachment portion is a wedge clip that is slidably coupled to the mount.
12. The apparatus of claim 11 , wherein the second attachment portion is spring loaded.
13. The apparatus of claim 11 , wherein the opening is located in a center of the at least one vent.
14. The apparatus of claim 13 , wherein the opening is configured to provide ventilation to the helmet.
15. The apparatus of claim 13 , wherein the mount is contoured to match the opening of the at least one vent.
16. The apparatus of claim 13 , wherein the mount is configured to carry an accessory.
17. The apparatus of claim 16 , wherein the mount is configured to change the direction of the accessory.
18. The apparatus of claim 16 , wherein the mount is configured to break free from the helmet when the accessory attached to the mount is subjected to a predetermined force.
