- the present invention also relates to a small footprint protection device, which can be set up easily and quickly.
- the containment device for biological and chemical products comprises a flexible and fluid-tight envelope, said envelope being provided with a fluid-tight closure opening, a first protective mat shielding flakes arranged in one part bottom of the casing, a splinterguard protective sleeve disposed on the first splinter mat, said sleeve being open at its axial ends, a second splinterguard mat disposed in an upper portion of the casing, and a third splinterguard mat above the upper part of the envelope, so that biological and / or chemical products remain confined in the device including during projections of said fluids.
- a suspect object may be disposed in the device through the closable opening and positioned in the sleeve.
- the fragments are stopped by the first splinter mat, the sleeve, and the second splinter mat.
- the blast effect is cushioned by the second splinter mat that can be thrown violently up without tearing the envelope.
- the upper part of the envelope is protected by the second splinter guard.
- the third splinter mat protects the upper portion of the envelope against perforation by a nearby object encountered during the projection of the height of the second splinter mat, for example a lighting element suspended from the ceiling of the room where it occurs. the explosion.
- the flexibility of the envelope allows it to deform in stretching, elastic or plastic, under the effect of the explosion.
- the projected fluids are contained in the envelope. The pollution of the neighborhood is avoided.
- the device comprises a liquid retention tray disposed between the first splinter guard and the splinter guard, on the one hand, and the lower portion of the housing, of somewhere else.
- a device containing liquids can be handled more easily.
- the retention tank may comprise an outer layer of synthetic material resistant to corrosive products, especially acids.
- the holding tank may comprise a bottom and edges, at least one of the edges being folding to the outside. The supply of the suspect object into the tray is facilitated when the folding edge is folded outward. The suspect object can thus be positioned in the tray, remotely by simple mechanical means or a robot.
- the sleeve comprises two parts nested one inside the other and able to slide relative to each other.
- the inner part can be lifted by the blast effect of an explosion, while any splinters are stopped by the outer part remaining in place.
- the second splinter guard comprises a central portion and a downwardly directed flange.
- the rim tends to prevent the blast effect from moving laterally towards the envelope.
- the upper portion of the envelope comprises a sheet portion disposed on the second splinter mat and a sheet portion disposed beneath the second splinter mat.
- the seal is improved and the second splinter mat is held between said sheet portions while being movable.
- the upper portion of the envelope comprises a portion of sheet disposed on the third splinter mat and a portion of sheet disposed under the third splinter mat.
- the seal is improved and the third splinter mat is held between said sheet portions while being movable.
- the lower and upper portions of the envelope are integral with one another. This results in excellent sealing and high tensile strength.
- the opening of the envelope is provided with a zipper.
- the opening of the envelope may be provided, in addition, a fastening closure, for example of the Velcro ® type, external to the zipper.
- the tear resistance of the opening is increased.
- the opening of the envelope may be provided with a flap inside the zipper and capable of covering said zipper. During an explosion, the flap is pressed against the zipper and the adjacent portion of the envelope, resulting in excellent sealing.
- the envelope is made of transparent material. Visual surveillance of the suspect object is possible and subsequent interventions facilitated.
- the envelope comprises elastomeric polyurethane.
- This material has satisfactory qualities of flexibility, stretchability, tear and cut resistance, and transparency.
- the envelope is made of extensible material of more than 100%.
- the casing has a shape of cylinder of elongated revolution.
- the second and third chopper mats can thus be projected at the upper end of the cylinder by dissipating high energy.
- the envelope is provided with a valve for emptying or sampling the contents of said envelope.
- the analysis of the fluids present in the envelope is facilitated in complete safety.
- the device comprises elastic straps surrounding the envelope. The dissipation of energy is favored.
- the device comprises progressive rupture straps surrounding the envelope.
- the dissipation of energy is also favored.
- the device comprises a carriage adapted to support the envelope and provided with displacement means. Handling of the device can be done easily.
- the mats comprise means for absorbing energy released by the blast effect of an explosion.

- the wound pipe has many walls compared to the total volume of fluid contained, so that energy dissipation by deformation of the walls is increased.
- At least one pipe may be closed at its ends.
- the fluid-filled damper when subjected to a large crushing force applied suddenly, dissipates energy by deformation of its walls as well as compression of the fluid. If the deformation continues, the dissipation of energy is also done by breaking the walls and evacuation of the fluid contained in the damper.
- the damper can be closed so that the fluid can escape with a rupture of the damper. It is possible to provide a damper provided with an opening for dissipation of energy by evacuation of the liquid from the beginning of the deformation of the damper.
- the fluid may be liquid or gaseous, such as air.
- a foam shape or liner is disposed under the carpet.
- the belt comprises a force distribution zone located between an upper surface of the belt and absorption elements.
- the force distribution zone may be in the form of a rigid plate, for example made of a large thickness of splinter material. The distribution of forces allows a distribution of the point force developed by the blast effect of the explosion on all energy absorbing elements.
- Such a device for containing explosive objects or suspected as such includes carpets and an envelope, the mats being formed from sheets of splinter material and the envelope being formed from flexible and waterproof material.
- the carpets are intended to be placed in the envelope by surrounding a suspect object, the carpets further comprising means for absorbing energy released by the blast effect of an explosion.
- the first splinter guard protects the floor from projectiles. Nevertheless, the forces developed on the carpet by the blast effect due to the explosion are large and localized, so that there is a risk that a floor is damaged by the blast effect through a carpet of material splinter-proof.
- the means for absorbing energy provided in the carpet absorb energy produced by forces created on the carpet by a blast effect to protect a floor.
- the containment device 1 essentially comprises an envelope 2, splintering mats 3, 4 and 5, and a sleeve 6.
- the belts 3 to 5 and the sleeve 6 are arranged in the envelope 2.
- the envelope 2 is made made of flexible and transparent material, for example polyurethane elastomer. It is particularly interesting that the material of the envelope 2 can undergo a very high stretch before breaking. It is possible to provide a minimum stretch of 100% or even 200% before breaking of the material.
- the elastomeric polyurethane may be in the form of a thin sheet, for example less than 1 mm.
- the casing 2 has a general shape of revolution cylinder closed at its ends and therefore comprises a bottom wall 2a provided to rest on the ground, an upper wall 2b disposed at the end opposite to the bottom wall 2a and a wall tubular 2c connecting the end walls 2a and 2b sealingly and being integral with the latter.
- the casing 2 is completed by a retaining element 7 of the upper belt 5.
- the upper belt 5 is disposed above the upper wall 2b of the casing 2 and is retained by the retaining element 7.
- the retaining element 7 may be in the form of a plurality of elastic straps for flexibly retaining the upper belt 7.
- the retaining element 7 is made in the form of a sheet of identical material to that of the casing 2 and fixed firmly to said casing 2, for example by high frequency welding.
- the retaining element 7 then makes it possible to improve the seal by constituting an additional sealing layer.
- a retaining element 8 of the intermediate belt 4 which can be made analogously to the retaining element 7, and therefore preferably in the form of a sheet of material identical to the material of the casing 2, and sealingly attached to said casing 2.
- the retaining member 8 also forms an additional seal, increasing the probability of maintaining the seal of the casing 2.
- the envelope 2 is completed by an opening 9 formed in the tubular wall 2c, away from the upper wall 2b, and closed by a closure 10, for example a zipper.
- the opening 9 may extend over most of the circumference of the tubular wall 2c to facilitate the use of the device.
- the opening 9 may be substantially parallel to the end walls 2a and 2b.
- an additional outer flap 11 which can be made of the same material as the casing 2 or in a slightly more rigid material, for example in a thicker sheet of the same material, fixed firmly, for example by welding at high frequency to the tubular wall 2c of the casing 2 above the opening 9 and coming down by gravity below the opening 9.
- the outer flap 11 is provided at its lower end facing the 2, an attachment zone 12 provided with multiple hooks complementary to a hooking zone 13 with multiple hooks fixed on the tubular wall 2c under the opening 9 and provided to be able to hold with the zone d ' attachment 12.
- the attachment areas 12 and 13 may be of the type Velcro ®. This strengthens the mechanical strength of the zipper 10, avoiding its tearing in case of explosion inside the confinement device. Of course, one will choose a zipper 10 having excellent sealing qualities.
- Flap mats 3, 4 and 5 may be made of similar materials, for example comprising high strength fibers, such as aramid fibers. Flap mats 3, 4 and 5 may comprise a plurality of protective layers and a reinforcing layer of semi-rigid material.
- the lower belt 3 is disposed in the bottom of the casing 2 and has a flat shape.
- the upper belt 5 also has a flat shape, while the intermediate belt 4 has a flat wall 4a surrounded by a flange 4b directed downwards to prevent the blast effect from reaching the envelope 2 too directly. during an explosion inside said casing 2, the blast effect is directed upwards and thus towards the plane wall 4a of the intermediate belt 4, then can then move radially outwardly while being at that position. moment limited by the peripheral edge 4b.
- the sleeve 6 is arranged on the lower belt 3 and may be made of a material similar to the chip-protection mats 3, 4 and 5.
- the sleeve 6 has a cylinder shape adapted to the shape of the splintered carpet 3 to rest by its lower edge on said lower belt 3.
- the sleeve 6 can be monobloc. However, it is preferred to make the sleeve 6 in two parts.
- the sleeve 6 comprises an inner portion 6a extending over the entire height of the sleeve 6 and provided with a groove on its periphery in an area near the lower belt 3, and an outer portion 6b arranged in the aforementioned groove and having a complementary shape with the inner portion 6a.
- the sleeve 6 may have a rectangular shape.
- the outer portion 6b may extend over substantially half of the total height of the sleeve 6. In the event of an explosion in an area located in the sleeve 6, the blast effect may then tend to lift the inner portion 6a, while the portion 6b remains in place on the lower belt 3 and avoids a spread of splinters in this direction.
- the shape of the two parts of the sleeve 6 can be achieved in different ways. It is possible to provide two parts of the same height in the form of two concentric cylinders nested one inside the other with or without contact. It is also possible to provide a contact surface between the two parts of the sleeve 6 having a frustoconical shape.
- the confinement device comprises a retention tank 14, in the form of a fluid-tight bowl disposed between the lower belt 3 and the bottom wall 2a of the casing 2 and between the sleeve 6 and the side wall 2c of the casing 2.
- the retention tank 14 may be made of a waterproof material resistant to corrosive products, in particular with sulfuric acid, with nitric acid, with hydrochloric acid.
- the retention tank 14 can be made of soproprene ® .
- the holding tank 14 comprises a flat bottom 14a and a rim 14b directed upwards.
- the flange 14b is provided with an articulated panel 14c that can be folded downwards, see FIG. 2, in the open position of the envelope 2.
- the panel 14c can be articulated on the bottom 14a by means of a hinge 14d, which can be simply performed by a zone of reduced thickness of the material constituting the retention tank 14.
- the hinged panel 14c can be connected to the rest of the edge 14b by elastic bellows allowing said panel to pivot between a substantially vertical position similar to that of the rest of the edge 14b and a substantially horizontal position in alignment with the bottom 14a, while maintaining a seal in the position shown in Figure 1 between the hinged panel 14c and the rest of the edge 14b.
- the containment device further comprises a sample collection pipe 15 fixed to the side wall 2c of the casing 2 in a sealed manner and equipped with a valve 16. It is thus easier to take a sample of gas or liquid. present in the envelope 2 with minimal risks of dispersion in the ambient atmosphere. Valve 16 can also be used to introduce an inert gas into casing 2.
- the containment device can be used as follows.
- the containment device is disposed in the open state, illustrated in Figure 2, near an object considered dangerous, for example an object likely to contain harmful chemical or biological substances.
- the opening 9 of the envelope 2 is then cleared upwardly and downwardly.
- the hinged panel 14c of the holding tank 14 is pivoted downwards and the sleeve 6 is removed.
- the hinged panel 14c and the lower carpet 3 may be provided with beveled ends or bevelled to promote the rise of the suspect object.
- the sleeve 6 is placed around said object on the lower belt 3 and the pivoting panel 14c is tilted upwards.
- the panel 14c can be held in the upper position by hooking on the rest of the edge 14b by means of straps, press studs, or multiple hook strips of the Velcro ® type .
- the sleeve 6 may be placed around the suspect object before bringing the suspect object into the envelope 2. In this way, the lateral projection of chips is avoided at the earliest.
- the suspect object is now confined in the containment device.
- the suspect object can now be moved with reduced risks for both nearby people and the environment.
- a possible explosion causes a blast effect that initially tends to be distributed isotropically.
- the soil is generally a hard zone, the blast effect tends to spread radially and upwards. Radially, the blast effect is limited by the sleeve 6 and can only be deployed upwards.
- the blast effect then drives the upper part of the casing 2, comprising the intermediate belt 4, the upper belt 5, the retaining elements 7 and 8 and the upper wall 2b of the casing 2 upwards, causing the stretching of the side wall 2c of the envelope 2.
- the blast effect can also cause an upward drive of the inner portion 6a of the sleeve 6.
- Possible chips, whose movement speed is considerably less than the speed of movement of the blast effect, are then retained laterally by the outer portion 6b of the sleeve 6. This prevents any chips from passing between the lower belt 3 and the sleeve 6.
- the blast effect then directed upward can deteriorate and even perforate the retaining element 8 and is then contained by the intermediate belt 4, in particular by the flat wall 4a of the intermediate belt 4.
- the flanges 4b can prevent a lateral expansion of the blast effect.
- the upper wall 2b of the casing 2 is protected by the intermediate belt 4 and thus retains its seal.
- the retaining element 7 can meet various objects, devices and devices located in its path, for example lighting fixtures, a ceiling, a cable , an electrical sheath.
- the retaining element 7 may be damaged and even perforated by the impact with the object situated on its trajectory, which then reaches the protective mat 5 provided to prevent such perforation, which makes it possible to protect the upper wall 2b of the envelope 2 which retains its integrity and sealing qualities.
- the sealing of the envelope 2 is preserved, which avoids the dispersion of chemical or biological products that are part of the suspicious object that exploded.
- the liquid fraction of the chemical or biological products will mainly be retained in the retention tank 14, which is particularly designed to withstand corrosive products, petroleum products and, more generally, a wide range of harmful chemicals.
- the gaseous fraction of the chemical or biological products and the pulverulent fraction are retained by the envelope 2. Then, the confinement device can be brought to a laboratory for analysis. The laboratory can take samples through line 15 and valve 16. The containment device can then be brought for destruction, for example in a secure incinerator provided for this purpose.
- the containment device significantly increases the safety of personnel, particularly protection and mine clearance services, and to reduce the risk of environmental pollution, thereby avoiding long and costly cleaning and disinfection operations.
- the containment device is well adapted to suspect objects containing radioactive substances, which it will avoid dispersion.
- the casing 2 further comprises an inner flap 19 firmly fixed to the side wall 2c of the casing 2 above the opening 9 and provided to come into contact with said side wall 2c below the closure 10 in the position illustrated in Figure 1.
- the inner flap 19 may be made of the same material as the casing 2. In case of explosion, the flap 19 is pressed against the closure 19 by the blast effect and thus increases the tightness of said closure 10.
- the containment device 1 is provided with a frame 17 disposed under the bottom wall 2a of the casing 2 and equipped with wheels 18 allowing easier movement of the confinement device.
- absorption elements 21 are in the form of winding pipes 22. Two pipes 22 are wound and stacked one on the other. It can be provided that the pipes 22 are held in the wound position by means of fixing means, for example a flexible flange. The pipes 22 can be filled with air and closed at their ends.
- the absorption elements 21 are arranged between the bottom wall 2a of the casing 2 and the frame 17.
- the absorption elements 2 and the frame 17 may comprise metal parts without interfering with an X-ray of the suspect object.
- the energy is also absorbed by compression of the air trapped in the pipe 22. If the crushing of the pipes 22 continues, it can result in a tearing of the walls of the pipes 22. In this case, the Energy is also absorbed during the tearing of the pipes 22. In the case where the pipes 22 are pierced, the air can escape through the openings. Energy is still dissipated by the evacuation of the air trapped in the pipes 22.
- absorption elements are in the form of two superimposed pipe windings 22, said pipes 22 having a first diameter.
- Second pipes 23 of diameter less than the diameter of the first pipes 22 are inserted into the pipes 22.
- the pipes 23 are also closed at their end to trap air.
- a pipe may be made of any material that absorbs energy.
- Metal pipes can be provided.
- a plastic pipe optionally reinforced with a metal frame.
- a carriage according to a variant of the invention comprises a chassis 17 provided with wheels 18.
- the chassis 17 comprises opposite vertical lateral walls 25 supporting an axis 26.
- a basket is articulated on the axis 26 and comprises tie rods 27 directed downwards from the axis 26 and a plate 28 supported by the tie rods 27 at a level less than that of the axis 26.
- the plate 28 remains substantially horizontal, even when the cart goes up or down a slope.
- the containment device 1 and the energy absorbing elements 21 are arranged on the plate 28.
- a carriage model with two perpendicular horizontal joints may be provided to allow the carriage to pass over the sloped and lateral slopes while keeping the horizontality of the plate 28.
- the sleeve 6 is made of two concentric parts 6a and 6b, the outer portion 6b having a bore of diameter greater than that of the outer surface of the inner portion 6a.
- the inner portion 6a has a height greater than that of the outer portion 6b.
- the confinement device further comprises a bell 30 provided with an upper wall 30a and a peripheral rim 30b, of height greater than that of the sleeve 6 and being in the form of a lateral skirt surrounding the sleeve 6 and whose lower end rests on the lower belt 3.
- the bell 30 may be in the form of a parallelepiped open on its lower face, or a cylinder open on its lower face and closed on its upper face.
- the inner portion 6a of the sleeve 6 may be covered over its bore with a fire-resistant material.
- the lower surface of the plane wall 30a and the bore of the rim 30b of the bell 30 may also be provided with a fireproof coating.
- the bell 30 can be made of materials similar or identical to those of the protective mats 3 to 5, and is thus able to protect the casing 2 against projections of chips, corrosive products or against the effects of a fireball.
- the bell 30 makes it possible to maintain the shape of the casing 2, the retaining element 8 being able to rest on the upper surface of the flat wall 30a of the bell 30.
- the closure of the confinement device is facilitated by the presence of the bell 30 which has sufficient rigidity to support the upper part of the confinement device, and give it a shape.
- the lateral portion 2c of the envelope 2 may be provided with folds 2d in order to preserve a large axial dimension allowing upward development of the envelope 2.
- elastic straps 29 may be provided. fixed on the casing 2 to absorb energy during the axial extension of the casing 2.
- the elastic straps 29 can be fixed on the casing 2, on either side of the folds 2d or on the walls end 2a and 2b.
