i found some of this very useful, i hope oyu do too
edit: examples:
Besagew - a large, sliding roundel, protecting a joint, such as the inside of the elbow or the armpit.
Bevor - also called a baviere or beavor. The bevor was a 15th century piece of armour that protected the lower part of the face when worn with a sallet. It could be afixed to the helmet of the breatsplate, and was often hinged, so that it could be lowered when not in use.
Boss - The round or cone-shaped metal plate at the center of a shield, protecting the hand. Also called an umbo.
Breaths - Holes in the visor or faceplate of a helmet to provide ventilation.
Brigandine - A type of coat-of-plates (see below) with hundreds of small, overlapping plates, providing great mobility at a slight cost in protection. Popular in the 15th and 16th centuries, the brigandine was usually worn over padding, but not mail
