Systems for establishing electrical interconnections for helmet-mounted devices

A system for establishing an electrical interconnection for a helmet-mounted device comprising:

• a first interconnect mechanism coupled to one of a helmet and the helmet-mounted device, the first interconnect mechanism comprising:
• a first frame rotatable relative to the one of the helmet and the helmet-mounted device around an axis, the first frame defining an opening in an interior thereof;
• a biasing member coupled to the first frame, the biasing member configured to bias the first frame in a predetermined rotational direction around the axis;
• a plurality of first electrical contacts positioned within the opening in the first frame;
• and
• a first projection extending from the first frame;
• and
• a second interconnect mechanism coupled to the other one of the helmet and the helmet-mounted device, the second interconnect mechanism comprising:
• a second frame fixedly coupled to the other one of the helmet and the helmet-mounted device, the second frame defining an opening in an interior thereof;
• a plurality of second electrical contacts positioned within the opening in the second frame;
• and
• a second projection extending from the second frame and positioned to contact the first projection,
• wherein as the first interconnect mechanism is moved toward the second interconnect mechanism, the contact between the first projection and the second projection causes rotation of the first frame in a direction opposite the predetermined rotational direction.
