Abstract
A headgear assembly including a body configured to fit on a head of a wearer, and a shield coupled to the body. The shield is movable between an extended position where the shield is positioned to cover at least part of a face of the wearer, and a retracted position where the shield is positioned to not cover the face of the wearer, or to cover less of the face of the wearer compared to when the shield is in the extended position. The assembly further includes a retaining mechanism including a first circumferentially extending surface located on one of the body or the shield, and a second circumferentially extending surface located on the other one of the body or the shield. The first and second surfaces are configured to be able to engage each other when the shield is in the retracted position to selectively retain the shield in the retracted position.
