Abstract

The motor cycle suit has special sewn compartments which can be inflated. The rider connects the suit to a gas connection on the machine. This comprises a collision sensor, a compressed gas bottle and a control valve. In a collision the gas rapidly inflates the compartments before the rider is thrown off the machine. The inflatable compartments are normally held flat in the suit by seams which are ruptured when the compressed gas is injected. The compartments slowly loose the compressed gas to enable the rider to move. An additional feature can be a special compartment to stiffen and support the spine. This compartment remains inflated until released by the rescuers, or it can be used to support the rider until in hospital.

Description

Die Erfindung betrifft ein Sicherheitssystem entsprechend dem Oberbegriff des einzigen Patentanspruches.The invention relates to a security system according to the preamble of the single Claim.

Es ist Aufgabe der Erfindung, durch zwangsweises Aufpumpen des Schutzanzuges das Verletzungsrisiko bei Verkehrsunfällen zu vermeiden. Die Aufgabe wird durch die Merkmale des einzigen Patentanspruches gelöst.It is an object of the invention, by forcing the protective suit to inflate it Avoid risk of injury in traffic accidents. The task is performed by the Features of the only claim solved.

Die Erfindung wird im folgenden näher beschrieben:
Der Schutzanzug (in der Regel eine Lederkombi) wird mit einem widerstandsfähigen Luftkammersystem ausgerüstet. Das Luftkammersystem wird verdeckt in den Anzug eingenäht, so daß der Anzug von außen nur unmerklich dicker als ein Anzug ohne Schutzeinrichtung aufträgt. Der Faden, welcher das Sicherheitssystem im Anzug hält, ist vom Material so gewählt, daß beim auslösen des Sicherheitssystemes die Fäden reißen und sich der Schutzanzug vom Volumen her ähnlich einem Airbag oder einer Schwimmweste aufpumpen kann. Spezielles Augenmerk wird beim Luftkammersystem auf die dem statistischen Verletzungsrisiko am häufigsten betroffenen Körperstellen (z. B. Wirbelsäule, etc). gelegt. Hier werden separate Kammern eingebracht, welche die Luft dauerhaft halten.The invention is described in more detail below:
The protective suit (usually a leather suit) is equipped with a robust air chamber system. The air chamber system is sewn into the suit concealed, so that the suit is only imperceptibly thicker from the outside than a suit without a protective device. The thread that holds the safety system in the suit is chosen from the material so that when the safety system is triggered, the threads break and the volume of the protective suit can inflate like an airbag or life jacket. In the air chamber system, special attention is paid to the areas of the body most frequently affected by the statistical risk of injury (e.g. spine, etc.). placed. Here separate chambers are introduced, which keep the air permanently.

Auf dem Motorrad wird an einer unkritischen Stelle die Elektronik und Patrone zur Auslösung des Sicherheitssystemes befestigt. Der Motorradfahrer klinkt sich beim Fahrtantritt in diese Patrone mittels eines am Schutzanzug befestigten flexiblen Schlauches ein. Wie beim Airbag wird bei extremer Verzögerung (ausschließlich bei Unfall/Sturz) des Fahrzeuges über einen Sensor das Sicherheitssystem ausgelöst, bevor der Fahrzeugführer zwangsweise absteigt.On the motorcycle, the electronics and cartridge become an uncritical point Triggering of the security system attached. The motorcyclist clicks on Start of the journey in this cartridge by means of a flexible hose attached to the protective suit a. As with the airbag, in the event of extreme deceleration (only in the event of an accident / fall) Vehicle triggered the safety system via a sensor before the driver forcibly descends.

Der Schutzanzug reißt an seinen Sollbruchnahtstellen und wird von der Patrone so aufgepumpt, daß z. B. durch eine Versteifung der Wirbelsäule das Luftkammersystem einen höchstmöglichen Schutz bietet. Der flexible Verbindungsschlauch reißt ab. Der Fahrzeugführer ist nun vor Verletzungen beim Sturz weitgehend geschützt.The protective suit tears at its predetermined breaking seams and is removed by the cartridge inflated that z. B. by stiffening the spine, the air chamber system offers the highest possible protection. The flexible connecting hose breaks off. Of the Driver is now largely protected from injuries when falling.

Mit Ausnahme der Schutzkammern besonders gefährdeter Bereiche, wie z. B. Wirbelsäule, verliert der aufgepumpte Anzug langsam wieder seine Luft. So sich kann der Fahrzeugführer, wenn er sich bei Bewußtsein befindet und keine schweren Verletzungen hat, selbst zu Fuß aus der Gefahrenzone bewegen.With the exception of the protective chambers of particularly vulnerable areas, such as B. spine, the inflated suit slowly loses its air. So he can Driver when he is conscious and no serious injuries has to move out of the danger zone on foot.

Die Entfernung des Luftkammerschutzes im Bereich z. B. der Wirbelsäule kann der versorgende Arzt entscheiden, ansonsten kann der Verletzte mit Anzug und damit versteifter Wirbelsäule ins Krankenhaus transportiert werden, ohne die Verletzung beim Transport so zu verschlimmern, daß eine Querschnittslähmung zu befürchten ist.The removal of the air chamber protection in the area z. B. the spine can the doctor providing care decides otherwise the injured person can wear a suit and thus  stiffened spine can be transported to the hospital without injury to the To aggravate transport so that paraplegia is to be feared.

Claims (1)

Aufblasbares Sicherheitsluftkissen (Airbag für Motorradbekleidung) dadurch gekennzeichnet, daß sich bei einem Unfall, bzw. Sturz der Schutzanzug automatisch aufbläst und über ein Luftkammersystem vor Verletzungen schützt, nach dem Unfall, bzw. Sturz die Luft mit Ausnahme der Kammern, welche die Körperpartien mit erheblichem Verletzungsrisiko betreffen (z. B. Wirbelsäule) wieder langsam entweicht und sich der Fahrzeugführer, bei geringer Verletzung selbst aus dem Gefahrenbereich entfernen kann.Inflatable safety air cushion (airbag for motorcycle clothing) characterized in that in the event of an accident or fall, the protective suit automatically inflates and protects against injuries via an air chamber system, after the accident or fall, the air with the exception of the chambers, which the body parts with considerable Risk of injury (e.g. spine) slowly escapes again and the driver can remove himself from the danger area with minor injuries.
