Description

Die Erfindung bezieht sich auf einen Rückenprotektor entsprechend dem oberbegriff des Anspruchs 1, insbesondere als Unfallschutz für Motorradfahrer.The invention relates to a back protector according to the Preamble of claim 1, in particular as accident protection for motorcyclists.

Derartige Rückenprotektoren sind bekannt. So geht das deutsche Gebrauchsmuster DE-U1-92 13 124 von Protektoren aus, die sich normalerweise in entsprechenden, den zu schützenden Körperteilen zugeordneten Taschen befinden bzw. die lösbar, beispielsweise mit Klettverschlüssen, an der Schutzbekleidung befestigt werden können. Die DE-C2-39 35 828 zeigt einen Rückenprotektor, bei dem in Längsrichtung der Wirbelsäule hintereinander angeordnete, nach außen gewölbte und aus verformbarem Werkstoff bestehende Plattenelemente vorgesehen sind. Ein Nachteil dieser vorbekannten Protektoren ist deren relativ komplizierter Aufbau.Such back protectors are known. This is how the German utility model works DE-U1-92 13 124 from protectors, which are normally in corresponding parts of the body to be protected There are pockets or those that can be detached, for example with Velcro fasteners protective clothing can be attached. DE-C2-39 35 828 shows a back protector, one behind the other in the longitudinal direction of the spine arranged, curved outwards and made of deformable material existing plate elements are provided. A disadvantage of this previously known Protectors is their relatively complicated structure.

Aus der WO 93/11678 läßt sich ein Stoßneutralisator entnehmen, der sich in Taschen von Schutzbekleidungen für Motorradfahrer einbringen läßt. Der Stoßneutralisator besteht dabei aus einem nachgiebigen Grundkörper, beispielsweise aus geschäumten Polyurethan, in den bei Stoß zerstörbare Partikel eingebettet sind. Die Partikel können dabei aus Polystirol-Schaumstoff oder auch aus Kork bestehen und unter anderem in Form von Mikrokugeln oder als Granulat vorliegen. A shock neutralizer can be found in WO 93/11678, which can be found in Bags of protective clothing for motorcyclists. Of the Shock neutralizer consists of a resilient body, for example Made of foamed polyurethane, in the particles that can be destroyed by impact are embedded. The particles can be made of polystyrene foam or also consist of cork and, among other things, in the form of microspheres or present as granules.

Aufgabe der Erfindung ist es, einen Rückenprotektor darzustellen, der einfach aufgebaut ist, wirksam Stöße absorbiert und darüber hinaus flexibel den Bedürfnissen des Benutzers angepaßt werden kann. The object of the invention is to present a back protector, which is simple in structure, effectively absorbs shocks and also flexible to meet the needs can be customized.

Die Aufgabe wird erfindungsgemäß entsprechend den Merkmalen des Anspruchs 1 gelöst. Vorteilhafte Ausgestaltungen der Erfindung ergeben sich aus den Unteransprüchen.The object is achieved according to the features of claim 1 solved. Advantageous configurations the invention emerge from the subclaims.

Das wichtigste Bauteil des erfindungsgemäßen Rückenprotektors bildet das stoßabsorbierende Element. Es besteht aus einem nachgiebigen Grundkörper, in dem zerdrückbare Hohlkügelchen eingebettet sind. Aufgrund dieses Aufbaus federt der Grundkörper leichtere Stöße ab. Größere Kräfte stützen darüber hinaus die Kügelchen ab. Steigen die Kräfte noch stärker an, zerbrechen die Kügelchen und absorbieren dadurch zu einem gewissen Anteil die Stoßenergie. Die zerbrochenen Kügelchen verbessern schließlich noch die Elastizität des Grundkörpers.The most important component of the back protector according to the invention forms the shock absorbing element. It exists from a resilient body in which the crushable Hollow spheres are embedded. Because of this The body absorbs lighter shocks during construction. Greater forces also support the beads. If the forces increase even more, they break Beads and thereby absorb to a certain extent the impact energy. Improve the broken beads finally the elasticity of the base body.

Bei den Hohlkügelchen wird Vorzugsweise ein Material gewählt, das beim Zerbrechen nahezu in Pulverform zerfällt. Dadurch ergeben sich keine spitzen Kanten, die anderenfalls durch den Grundkörper hindurchstoßen und den Träger des Protektors verletzen könnten. Als geeignetes Material für die Hohlkügelchen hat sich Aluminiumoxid erwiesen. Beim Grundkörper andererseits läßt sich Polyurethanschaum in vorteilhafter Weise verwenden.A material is preferably selected for the hollow spheres, that almost breaks into powder when broken. This does not result in any sharp edges, otherwise push through the body and the carrier of the protector. As a suitable material aluminum oxide has proven to be suitable for the hollow spheres. With the basic body, on the other hand, polyurethane foam can be used use in an advantageous manner.

Nach der Erfindung wird das stoßabsorbierende Element in eine Tasche eingesetzt, die der Träger des Protektors an sich befestigt. Um das stoßabsorbierende Element bei einem Sturz nicht durch Abreibung usw. zu gefährden oder gar zu zerstören, ist es weiter vorteilhaft, die Tasche zumindest an ihrer Außenseite mit einem reiß- bzw. scheuerfesten Material zu versehen.According to the invention, the shock absorbing element in a pocket is inserted that the wearer of the protector on attached itself. To the shock absorbing element not endanger a fall by abrasion, etc. or To even destroy it, it is further advantageous to carry the bag at least on the outside with a tear or to provide abrasion-resistant material.

Die Tasche mit dem stoßabsorbierenden Element kann sich die jeweilige Person getrennt von anderen Kleidungsstücken bzw. Schutzeinrichtungen umschnallen. Es hat sich jedoch als vorteilhaft erwiesen, den Rückenprotektor zusammen mit einem Nierengurt zu tragen. In diesem Fall ist am Nierengurt bzw. am unteren Abschnitt der Tasche des Rückenprotektors ein Klettverschluß vorgesehen, mit dem sich die beiden Teile lösbar miteinander verbinden lassen. Zur weiteren Befestigung weist der Rückenprotektor in diesem Fall wenigstens noch eine gurtartige Lasche auf. Über diese Lasche läßt sich die Tasche zusätzlich am Nierengurt befestigen und bieten zugleich die Möglichkeit, den Rückenprotektor in seiner Lage zu dem Nierengurt und entsprechend den Bedürfnissen des Trägers einzustellen. Auch hier sind vorzugsweise Klettverschlüsse vorgesehen, die die Verstellmöglichkeiten noch erhöhen, so daß der Rückenprotektor bequem an die jeweiligen Bedürfnisse bzw. an die jeweils eingenommene Sitzposition angepaßt werden kann. Desweiteren besteht die Möglichkeit, durch die getrennte Ausführung den Nierengurt ohne Protektor zu tragen bzw. beide Teile einzeln zu ersetzen.The bag with the shock absorbing element can itself the respective person separately from other items of clothing or safety devices. It has however, proven to be beneficial to put the back protector together to wear with a kidney belt. In this case on the kidney belt or on the lower section of the pocket of the Back protector provided a Velcro, with which the two parts releasably connect to let. The back protector has further fastening in this case at least one belt-like Flap open. The bag can also be added via this tab attach to the kidney belt and at the same time offer the Possibility to position the back protector in position Kidney belt and according to the needs of the wearer adjust. Velcro fasteners are also preferred here provided the adjustment options still increase so that the back protector is convenient to the respective needs or to the respective ingested Sitting position can be adjusted. Furthermore there is the possibility of the separate execution of the Kidney belt to wear without a protector or both parts to replace individually.

Weitere Vorteile der Erfindung ergeben sich aus der nachfolgenden Beschreibung eines Ausführungsbeispiels und der dazugehörigen Zeichnung. Die Zeichnung zeigt in

Figur 1
in perspektivischer und auseinandergezogener Darstellung die Einzelteile eines erfindungsgemäßen Rückenprotektors und eines Nierengurts und

Ein Nierengurt 1 nach Figur 1 weist einen rückwärtigen Abschnitt 1a auf, der sich bei angelegtem Nierengurt im Bereich der Wirbelsäule des Trägers befindet. Die gegenüberliegenden Abschnitte 1b und 1c des Nierengurtes 1 dienen zum Befestigen des Gurts; die Befestigungsart (Schnallen usw.) ist hier nicht weiter dargestellt. Am Abschnitt 1a weist der Nierengurt 1 einen Befestigungsabschnitt 2 eines Klettverschlusses auf. An seiner Seite ist ebenfalls ein Befestigungsabschnitt 3 eines Klettverschlusses erkennbar. Ein dritter Klettverschluß liegt auf der gegenüberliegenden Seite, wegen der Darstellungsart jedoch gestrichelt gezeichnet.A kidney belt 1 according to FIG. 1 has a rear one Section 1a, which is in the Area of the wearer's spine. The opposite Sections 1b and 1c of the kidney belt 1 are used to fasten the belt; the type of attachment (Buckles, etc.) is not shown here. At the Section 1a, the kidney belt 1 has a fastening section 2 of a Velcro fastener. By his side is also a fastening section 3 of a Velcro fastener recognizable. There is a third Velcro fastener on the opposite side, because of the type of representation however drawn in dashed lines.

Ein Rückenprotektor 4 besteht aus einer Tasche 5, die an ihrem oberen Abschnitt 5a geöffnet werden kann. Die Tasche 5 weist desweiteren einen mit dem Befestigungsabschnitt 2 korrespondierenden Befestigungsabschnitt 6 auf. Beide Befestigungsabschnitte 2 und 6 bilden demnach einen Vollständigen Klettverschluß.A back protector 4 consists of a pocket 5 which is attached to its upper section 5a can be opened. The Pocket 5 also has one with the attachment portion 2 corresponding fastening section 6 on. Both fastening sections 2 and 6 accordingly form a full Velcro fastener.

Im Bereich des oberen Abschnittes 5a ist an der Tasche 4 links und rechts jeweils eine gurtartige Lasche 7 und 8 angenäht. Die freien Enden der Laschen 7 und 8 tragen an ihren Innenseiten die zu den Befestigungsabschnitten 3, 3' korrespondierenden Befestigungsabschnitte 9 und 10 der seitlichen Klettverschlüsse.In the area of the upper section 5a is on the pocket 4th a belt-like tab 7 and 8 on the left and right sewn on.

Die Struktur läßt deutlich in der in Figur 1 herausgezeichnete Einzelheit A erkennen. Die Anordnung der Hohlkügelchen 12 kann wahllos sein. Ebenso kann aber auch eine gezielte Ausrichtung angestrebt werden. Der Füllungsgrad, das heißt die Anzahl der Kügelchen pro Flächeneinheit, ist auf die jeweiligen Bedürfnisse abgestellt. Bei höherem Füllungsgrad übernehmen hauptsächlich die Hohlkügelchen die Stoßabsorption, bei geringerem Füllungsgrad wird die anfängliche Stoßenergie weitgehend durch das elastische Material 13 abgefangen. Die Hohlkügelchen bestehen aus Aluminiumoxid, jedoch kann auch ein anderes für den vorgesehen Zweck geeignetes Material Verwendet werden. Bedingung ist lediglich, daß die Hohlkügelchen bei einer bestimmten Belastung zerbrechen und daß die Bruchstücke keine scharfen Kanten und Teile ausbilden.In the pocket 4 can be via the opening in the upper section 5a insert a shock absorbing element 11. The shock absorbing element 11 consists of a resilient Base body 13, for example from a Polyurethane foam in which crushable hollow spheres 12 are embedded.
