SchutzanzügenProtective suits
Die Erfindung bezieht sich auf eine Einrichtung zum Trocknen von Schutzanzügen, bei welcher der Anzug über ein aus Rohren bestehendes Traggerüst gestülpt ist, das in alle Extremitäten des Schutzanzuges hineinreicht, wobei die Rohre an ihren Enden Austrittsöffnungen für eingeblasene Warmluft aufweisen.The invention relates to a device for drying protective suits, in which the suit is slipped over a supporting structure consisting of tubes, which extends into all extremities of the protective suit, the tubes having outlet openings for blown-in warm air at their ends.
Bei einer bekannten Ausbildung dieser Art ist ein aus mehreren Rohrstücken zusammensetzbares Traggerüst vorgesehen, wobei von einem zentralen Rohr aus über seitliche Anschlußstutzen Rohrstücke in die Arme und Beine des Schutzanzuges hineinreichen. Diese Rohrstücke sind an ihren freien Enden offen, sodaß durch die Rohre eingeblasene Warmluft an diesen Enden austritt und durch den Schutzanzug streicht. Diese Ausbildung hat den Nachteil, daß insbesondere im Bereich der Füße, die Innenseite des Schutzanzuges an den Öffnungen anliegt, sodaß gerade dort nur eine limitierte Menge an Trocknungsluft austreten kann, da die Stiefelinnensohle diese Austrittsöffnungen nach Art einer Ventilklappe abschließen. Es wird dann die Hauptluftmenge durch die Arme in den Schutzanzug eintreten, wodurch der Fuß- und Beinbereich des Schutzanzuges nicht oder nur schlecht getrocknet wird. Außerdem ist es aufgrund der großen Luftaustrittsöffnung im Bereich der Arme bzw. Hände nicht möglich, die Luftmengen so zu steuern, daß auch im Fußbereich die nötige Trocknungsluftmenge in den Schutzanzug eingebracht wird.In a known embodiment of this type, a support structure which can be assembled from a plurality of pipe pieces is provided, pipe pieces extending from a central pipe via lateral connecting pieces into the arms and legs of the protective suit. These pipe sections are open at their free ends, so that warm air blown in through the pipes emerges at these ends and passes through the protective suit. This design has the disadvantage that, in particular in the area of the feet, the inside of the protective suit lies against the openings, so that only a limited amount of drying air can escape there, since the insole of the boot closes off these outlet openings in the manner of a valve flap. The main amount of air will then enter the protective suit through the arms, as a result of which the foot and leg area of the protective suit is not or only poorly dried. In addition, due to the large air outlet opening in the area of the arms or hands, it is not possible to control the air quantities in such a way that the necessary amount of drying air is also introduced into the protective suit in the foot region.
Der Erfindung liegt die Aufgabe zugrunde, eine Einrichtung der eingangs genannten Art zu schaffen, bei welcher eine gleichmäßige Trocknung des gesamten Schutzanzuges ermöglicht wird. Erfindungsgemäß wird diese Aufgabe dadurch gelöst, daß das Traggerüst durchThe invention has for its object to provide a device of the type mentioned, in which a uniform drying of the entire protective suit is made possible. According to the invention, this object is achieved in that the supporting structure
Rohrbügel gebildet ist, welche im Bereich der Füße bzw. der Hände des Schutzanzuges Umbiegungen aufweisen, in welchen die Austrittsöffnungen für die Trocknungsluft angeordnet sind. Aufgrund dieser Ausbildung werden die Bein- bzw. Armbereiche des Schutzanzuges so offen gehalten und damit die Austrittsöffnungen freigehalten, daß immer ein ordnungsgemäßer Trocknungseffekt auftritt. Für Schutzanzüge kommt es darauf an, daß die Rohrbügel die Schutzanzüge so halten, daß Abknickungen u.dgl. verhindert sind, um einen entsprechenden Luftfluß der Trocknungsluft zu ermöglichen, bzw. ein Abschließen der Luftauslässe verhindert ist. Vorteilhafterweise können die Austrittsöffnungen für die Trocknungsluft zu denPipe bracket is formed, which have bends in the area of the feet or hands of the protective suit, in which the outlet openings for the drying air are arranged. Due to this design, the leg or arm areas of the protective suit are kept so open and the outlet openings are kept clear that a proper drying effect always occurs. For Protective suits are dependent on the pipe bracket holding the protective suits in such a way that kinks and the like. are prevented in order to allow a corresponding air flow of the drying air, or a closure of the air outlets is prevented. Advantageously, the outlet openings for the drying air to the
Fuß- bzw. Fingerspitzen des Schutzanzuges hin gerichtet sein, wodurch sichergestellt ist, daß der über die Rohrbügel gestülpte Schutzanzug in allen Bereichen ordnungsgemäß getrocknet wird. Schließlich können die Rohrbügel im Bereich der Beine bzw. Arme parallel zueinander verlaufende, voneinander distanzierte Schenkel aufweisen, wobei jeweils ein Schenkel der Bügel von einem gemeinsamen Verteilerrohr ausgeht und die anderen Schenkel gleichartiger Bügel miteinander leitend verbunden sind. Es sind also die in die Beine ragenden Bügel miteinander zu einem Stück verbunden und auch die in die Arme ragenden Bügel, so daß einerseits sehr stabile Traggerüste erzielt werden und anderseits ein gutes Ausblasen der Trocknungsluft ermöglicht ist, da durch beide Enden Trocknungsluft eingeblasen und ein Zurückströmen von Trocknungsluft ausgeschlossen ist.The foot or fingertips of the protective suit should be pointed out, thereby ensuring that the protective suit put over the pipe bracket is properly dried in all areas. Finally, in the region of the legs or arms, the pipe brackets can have legs that are parallel to one another and spaced apart, one leg of the bracket starting from a common distributor pipe and the other legs of similar brackets being conductively connected to one another. So the legs protruding into the legs are connected to each other in one piece and also the arms protruding into the arms, so that on the one hand very stable support structures are achieved and on the other hand a good blowing out of the drying air is made possible because drying air is blown in through both ends and flows back is excluded from drying air.
Bei einer weiteren vorteilhaften Ausbildung, bei welcher auch das Waschen und Desinfizieren vorgenommen werden kann, kann an dem gemeinsamen Verteilerrohr ein zusätzlicher, wahlweise abschließbarer Anschlußstutzen für die Zufuhr von Wasch- und/oder Desinfektionsmittel vorgesehen sein, wobei vorzugsweise die Trocknungsluftleitung vor dem Anschlußstutzen ebenfalls wahlweise abschließbar ist. Damit kann entweder nur Waschflüssigkeit, Desinfektionsflüssigkeit od.dgl. allein, oder Trocknungsluft allein oder aber beides gemeinsam eingebracht werden, wodurch die Innenseite des Anzuges gewaschen und getrocknet werden kann. Nach Umschalten der beiden Abschlußventile kann dann das Gebläse eingeschaltet und durch das gleiche Gestell hindurch die Trocknungsluft in den Schutzanzug geleitet werden.In a further advantageous embodiment, in which washing and disinfection can also be carried out, an additional, optionally lockable connecting piece for the supply of detergent and / or disinfectant can be provided on the common distributor pipe, the drying air line before the connecting piece preferably also being optional is lockable. So that only washing liquid, disinfectant liquid or the like. alone, or drying air alone or both can be introduced together, whereby the inside of the suit can be washed and dried. After switching over the two shut-off valves, the blower can then be switched on and the drying air can be passed through the same frame into the protective suit.
Weiters können die Austrittöffnungen auch zum Einbringen für das Wasch- und/oder Desinfektionsmittel einsetzbar sein. Dadurch wird erreicht, daß das Wasch- und/oder Desinfektionsmittel bis ganz in die äußersten Spitzen der Extremitäten gelangt, damit auch dort eine entsprechende Reinigung und Desinfektion erfolgt. Schließlich können am gemeinsamen Verteilerrohr bzw. an den Ausgangsbereichen der Rohrbügel des Traggerüstes weitere in das Innere des Kopfschutzes des Schutzanzuges gerichtete Austrittsöffnungen vorgesehen sein. Diese Austrittsöffnungen dienen dabei einerseits zur Waschung, Desinfektion und Trocknung des Schutzanzuges und zwar der über den Kopf zu ziehenden Kapuze und anderseits dazu, daß nach Abschalten der Zufuhr des Wasch- und/oder Desinfektionsmittels das im Rohr befindliche Mittel ausfließen kann ohne nach Öffnen des in der Trocknungsluftleitung vorgesehenen Ventils in das Gebläse zu fließen.Furthermore, the outlet openings can also be used for introducing the detergent and / or disinfectant. This ensures that the detergent and / or disinfectant reaches all the way to the extremities of the extremities reached, so that there is a corresponding cleaning and disinfection. Finally, further outlet openings directed into the interior of the head protection of the protective suit can be provided on the common distributor pipe or on the output regions of the pipe bracket of the supporting structure. These outlet openings serve on the one hand for washing, disinfecting and drying the protective suit, namely the hood to be pulled over the head and on the other hand that after switching off the supply of detergent and / or disinfectant, the agent in the tube can flow out without opening the in the valve provided in the drying air line to flow into the blower.
