Abstract
Description
- The present invention relates to a protective device particularly for sports clothing.
- Currently, some body protections in items of sports clothing, such as suits, jackets, trousers for motorcycling or other similar items of clothing comprise a shock-absorbing element, which is provided with an impact-resistant layer that protrudes toward the outside of the item of clothing to which said shock-absorbing element is fixed.
- A generally rigid or semirigid protective shield is associated externally with the shock-absorbing element.
- Known shock-absorbing elements are provided with an impact-resistant layer that is formed by a plurality of protrusions, which are mutually spaced and are suitable to absorb the shock by deforming in a substantially plastic manner.
- Although these known protections are appreciated and widespread, they have drawbacks.
- A first problem is linked to the plastic deformation of the protrusions forming the impact-resistant layer that occurs after an impact.
- This plastic deformation in fact causes the protection to be substantially non-reusable, therefore requiring its replacement.
- This entails, in case of replacement, the need to separate the protection from the item of clothing, where generally the two elements are joined by stitching or adhesive bonding, both of which are couplings that are difficult to remove without damaging the item of clothing.
- Moreover, known protections, as a consequence of their layered configuration, do not generally allow good breathing of the anatomical part of the user that is protected, and instead facilitate the perspiration of the user and the consequent skin and dermatological problems.
- Moreover, rigid protective shells are often fixed to the shock-absorbing element or to the item of clothing in a substantially stable manner, or are even inserted in an appropriately provided pocket formed on the inside or outside of said item of clothing.
- Therefore, a breakage of the shells following an impact entails that these protective shields, too, must be replaced, and it is therefore necessary to separate them from the item of clothing, unless the item of clothing itself has been damaged by the impact indeed because of its intimate connection to the protection.
- The aim of the present invention is to provide a protective device particularly for sports clothing that is capable of obviating the problems and drawbacks revealed by protections of the known type.
- Within this aim, an object of the present invention is to provide a protective device in which the component that is fixed to the item of clothing is effective for more than one impact.
- Another object of the present invention is to provide a protective device that is ergonomic and is capable of providing the user with better ventilation of the protected part.
- Another object of the present invention is to provide a protective device the external shield of which can be replaced easily in case of breakage or for aesthetic reasons.
- Another object of the present invention is to provide a protective device particularly for sports clothing that can be manufactured cheaply with known systems and technologies.
- This aim and these and other objects that will become better apparent hereinafter are achieved by a protective device for an item of clothing, particularly for sports clothing, of the type that comprises a shock-absorbing element, said shock-absorbing element being provided with a perimetric flap, characterized in that said perimetric flap is designed to be coupled to the inside of said item of clothing, said shock-absorbing element supporting an impact-resistant layer that protrudes externally with respect to said item of clothing through an appropriately provided opening thereof, a protective shield being associated externally with respect to said element and said item of clothing, said impact-resistant layer being provided by a plurality of perforated protrusions, which are directed outward and are interconnected so as to form a grid that is substantially elastically deformable.
- Further characteristics and advantages of the invention will become better apparent from the following detailed description of a preferred but not exclusive embodiment thereof, illustrated by way of non-limiting example in the accompanying drawings, wherein:
-
Figure 1 is a top view of the shock-absorbing element as in a protective device according to the invention; -
Figure 2 is a lateral exploded sectional view of a protective device according to the invention; -
Figure 3 is a sectional side view of a protective device according to the invention, fitted to an item of clothing; -
Figure 4 is an exploded perspective view of a protective device according to the invention; -
Figure 5 is another perspective view of a protective device according to the invention. - With reference to the figures, a protective device particularly for sports clothing according to the invention is generally designated by the
reference numeral 10. - The
device 10 described here is particularly suitable for protecting a shoulder of a motorcyclist. - The
protective device 10 comprises a shock-absorbingelement 11 provided with an impact-resistant layer 12. - The impact-
resistant layer 12 protrudes toward the outside of an item of sports clothing, represented by theflaps 13 ofFigure 3 , to which the shock-absorbingelement 11 is fixed. - The impact-
resistant layer 12 protrudes outside the item ofclothing 13 through an appropriately provided opening thereof, represented schematically by means of the distance between the twoflaps 13 inFigure 3 . - A
protective shield 14 is associated externally with respect to theelement 11. - The
protective shield 14 is made of polyurethane subjected to coinjection with thermoplastic composite material. - The impact-
resistant layer 12 is constituted by a plurality ofperforated protrusions 15, which are directed outward and are interconnected so as to form an elasticallydeformable grid 16. - The elastic response of the
grid 16 allows to avoid replacing at each impact theelement 11, of which thegrid 16 is an integral part. - Each one of the
protrusions 15 is provided with athrough hole 17 that has a substantially triangular cross-section. - The
holes 17 open externally toward the inside of theprotective shield 14 and internally toward the corresponding protected part of the body of a user. - The shock-absorbing
element 11 is, in this embodiment, made of expanded polyurethane, which is an elastically deformable material. - The
shield 14 is associated with the shock-absorbingelement 11 by way of detachable connection means 18. - The detachable connection means 18 are constituted by a plurality of threaded
couplings 19 arranged around the impact-resistant layer 12. - Each of the threaded
couplings 19 is provided by asquare nut 20a, which is accommodated in a complementarily shapedseat 21 on the shock-absorbingelement 11. - A
screw 20b of the Allen type is screwed into thesquare nut 20a in order to reversibly lock theshield 14 to the shock-absorbingelement 11. - The threaded
couplings 19 allow to remove rapidly and with limited effort ashield 14 and to replace it with another one that is intact or has an aesthetic content that is more suited to the taste of the user. - A
comfort padding 23 is fixed on theside 22 of theelement 11 that is directed toward the inside of the item of sports clothing with which it is rigidly associated. - The
padding 23 is fixed to the shock-absorbingelement 11 by means of a first stitchedseam 24. - The
padding 23 is made of finely perforated expanded material. - The shock-absorbing
element 11 is provided with aperimetric flap 25, which is designed to be coupled to the item ofsports clothing 13. - The
perimetric flap 25 is monolithic with the impact-resistant layer 12 and surrounds the ring ofseats 21 for thesquare nuts 20a. - The
perimetric flap 25 is coupled to the item ofsports clothing 13 by means of a second stitchedseam 26. - The
protective shield 14 has, on afirst side 27 directed in the direction of travel of a user (for example a motorcyclist), anair intake 28 and, on asecond side 29 that lies opposite thefirst side 27, twooutlets 30. - The air enters from outside through the
intake 28 and by passing through theholes 17 of theprotrusions 15 and through the finelyperforated padding 23 it can penetrate within the item ofclothing 13. - This entails, in the example described here of a
protective device 10 for a shoulder of a motorcyclist, that the region of the shoulder and therefore of the armpit, which is typically one of the body parts that is most active in terms of perspiration, is ventilated with a certain air recirculation. - The heat that originates from the body of the user can in fact rise freely through the
padding 23 and theholes 17 and exit from theoutlets 30. - Further, the gap formed between the inside of the
shield 14 and the shock-absorbingelement 11 is such as to allow the generation of a Venturi effect, which is needed to draw outward the air from inside the suit and fresh air from outside through theintake 28. - The
shield 14 is provided internally withridges 35, which run substantially at right angles to the outer edge of the shield. - The
ridges 35 reach the vicinity of thegrid 16 and are suitable to increase the impact energy absorption capacity. - As a whole, a
protective device 10 according to the invention, as shown for example inFigures 2 and 3 , is a composite assembly of elements suitable to absorb energy upon impact. - In practice it has been found that the invention thus described solves the problems noted in known types of protection for sports clothing.
- In particular, the present invention provides a protective device in which the component that is fixed to the item of clothing is effective for more than one impact.
- Moreover, the present invention provides a protective device that is ergonomic and capable of providing the user with better ventilation of the protected part.
- Moreover, the present invention provides a protective device in which the outer shield can be replaced easily in case of breakage or for aesthetic reasons.
- Still further, the present invention provides a protective device particular for sports clothing that can be manufactured cheaply with known systems and technologies.
- The invention thus conceived is susceptible of numerous modifications and variations, all of which are within the scope of the appended claims.
