- Especially special protective clothing such as those used in fire fighting, must have a variety of properties to meet the extreme conditions of use.
- a firefighter jacket has to have a high level of heat resistance, furthermore it has to be moisture-repellent, but at the same time allow moisture to escape from the inside of the jacket, ie be breathable.
- These properties are achieved by the combination different materials and membranes, resulting in a complex sandwich construction.
- the breathability of the protective clothing ie the function to let the person's body heat and moisture escape during use, is of great importance, since otherwise the heat acting on the person from the outside is effectively fended off, the heating resulting from the efforts of the insert the person himself as well as the sweat but in the protective clothing are stowed. This significantly limits the performance of the people and represents a great risk in the already dangerous use.

Abstract
Description
Die Erfindung betrifft Schutzbekleidung mit Reflexbändern gemäß dem Oberbegriff des Patentanspruches 1.The invention relates to protective clothing with reflective tapes according to the preamble of claim 1.
Schutzbekleidung beispielsweise im Bereich der Brandbekämpfung weist üblicherweise an mehreren Stellen auf Jacken und Hosen applizierte Reflexbänder auf, um die Sicherheit der die Schutzkleidung im Einsatz tragenden Personen insbesondere beim Einsatz bei Dunkelheit zu erhöhen. Eine typische Anordnung der Reflexbänder ist auf Knöchelhöhe der Hosen sowie an den Ärmeln und dem Brustbereich der Jacken.Protective clothing, for example, in the field of fire fighting usually has at several points on jackets and pants applied reflective tapes to increase the safety of the protective clothing in use wearing people especially when used in the dark. A typical arrangement of the reflective tapes is at the ankle height of the pants as well as on the sleeves and the chest area of the jackets.
Gerade spezielle Schutzbekleidung, wie beispielsweise solche im Einsatz bei der Brandbekämpfung, muß eine Vielzahl von Eigenschaften aufweisen, um den extremen Bedingungen des Einsatzes gerecht zu werden. So muß eine Feuerwehrjacke zum einen eine große Hitzeresistenz aufweisen, des weiteren feuchtigkeitsabweisend sein, gleichzeitig aber Feuchtigkeit von der Jackeninnenseite austreten lassen, also atmungsaktiv sein. Erreicht werden diese Eigenschaften durch die Kombination verschiedener Werkstoffe und Membrane, woraus eine aufwendige Sandwichbauweise resultiert.Especially special protective clothing, such as those used in fire fighting, must have a variety of properties to meet the extreme conditions of use. For example, a firefighter jacket has to have a high level of heat resistance, furthermore it has to be moisture-repellent, but at the same time allow moisture to escape from the inside of the jacket, ie be breathable. These properties are achieved by the combination different materials and membranes, resulting in a complex sandwich construction.
Die Atmungsaktivität der Schutzbekleidung, also die Funktion, die Körperwärme und -feuchtigkeit der Person im Einsatz austreten zu lassen, ist von großer Bedeutung, da ansonsten die von außen auf die Person einwirkende Hitze zwar wirkungsvoll abgewehrt wird, die von den Anstrengungen des Einsatzes herrührende Erhitzung der Person selbst sowie der Schweiß aber in der Schutzbekleidung gestaut werden. Dies schränkt die Leistungsfähigkeit der Personen deutlich ein und stellt ein großes Risiko beim ohnehin gefährlichen Einsatz dar.The breathability of the protective clothing, ie the function to let the person's body heat and moisture escape during use, is of great importance, since otherwise the heat acting on the person from the outside is effectively fended off, the heating resulting from the efforts of the insert the person himself as well as the sweat but in the protective clothing are stowed. This significantly limits the performance of the people and represents a great risk in the already dangerous use.
Hier treten nun Probleme bei der Verwendung der bekannten Reflexbänder auf. In der Praxis macht die durch Reflexbänder abgedeckte Fläche der Schutzbekleidung bis zu 20% der gesamten Oberfläche aus. Durch die Aufbringung der Reflexbänder ist die Schutzbekleidung somit zu in etwa 20% versiegelt und in ihrer Atmungsaktivität deutlich eingeschränkt. Das heißt, die Schutzbekleidung ist grundsätzlich aufgrund der aufwendigen Fertigung mit speziellen atmungsaktiven Membranen nach außen hin durchlässig gestaltet, was aber durch die Aufbringung der Reflexbänder wieder deutlich reduziert wird.Here occur now problems in the use of the known reflective tapes. In practice, the area of the protective clothing covered by reflective tapes accounts for up to 20% of the total surface area. By applying the reflective tapes, the protective clothing is thus sealed in about 20% and significantly limited in their breathability. That is, the protective clothing is basically made permeable to the outside due to the complex production with special breathable membranes, but this is significantly reduced by the application of reflective tapes again.
Die Auswirkungen im Einsatz sind sehr negativ. Zum einen bewirken die Reflexbänder eine schlechtere Atmung der Schutzbekleidung, wodurch die Personen im Einsatz schneller ermüden und so die Leistungsfähigkeit sinkt. Es kann allerdings zudem zu ernsten Verletzungen kommen. Untersuchungen haben ergeben, dass Verbrennungen bei der Brandbekämpfung insbesondere in den Bereichen am Körper auftreten, die sich unter von Reflexbändern bedeckten Flächen der Schutzbekleidung befinden. Es kommt hier zu lokalen Schweißzonen, die sich besonders aufheizen und zu Verbrühungen führen.The effects in use are very negative. On the one hand, the reflective tapes cause a poorer breathing of the protective clothing, which fatigue the people in use faster and thus reduces performance. However, it can also lead to serious injuries. Investigations have shown that burns occur in firefighting, especially in the areas on the body, which are located under reflective tapes covered areas of protective clothing. It comes here to local sweat zones, which heat up particularly and lead to scalding.
Aus der
Es ist daher die Aufgabe der Erfindung, Schutzbekleidung mit perforierten Reflexbändern zu schaffen, die die zuvor genannten Nachteile vermeidet und eine atmungsaktive Schutzbekleidung auch im Bereich der Reflexbänder ermöglicht. Zudem soll ein perforiertes Reflexband geschaffen werden, dass zur Herstellung einer solchen Schutzbekleidung geeignet ist.It is therefore an object of the invention to provide protective clothing with perforated reflective tapes, which avoids the aforementioned disadvantages and allows a breathable protective clothing in the field of reflective tapes. In addition, a perforated reflective tape is to be created that is suitable for producing such protective clothing.
Erreicht wird dies nach der Erfindung durch Schutzbekleidung mit Reflexbändern mit den Merkmalen des Anspruchs 1. Anspruch 5 beschreibt das erfindungsgemäße Reflexband.This is achieved according to the invention by protective clothing with reflective tapes with the features of claim 1. Claim 5 describes the reflective tape according to the invention.
Die weiteren Ansprüche 2-4 sowie 6 kennzeichnen vorteilhafte Ausführungsformen der Erfindung.The further claims 2-4 and 6 indicate advantageous embodiments of the invention.
Um der Versiegelung der Schutzbekleidung durch aufgebrachte Reflexbänder entgegenzuwirken, sollen nach der Erfindung die Reflexbänder selbst atmungsaktiv und wasserdampfdurchlässig ausgebildet sein.In order to counteract the sealing of the protective clothing by applied reflective tapes, according to the invention, the reflective tapes themselves should be made breathable and water vapor permeable.
Dies wird erreicht neben der Perforierung der Reflexbänder durch die Verwendung eines speziellen atmungsaktiven Klebers, der zudem nicht in den Bereichen aufgebracht ist, in denen die Perforierungen angeordnet sind. Es handelt sich hierbei zweckmäßigerweise um eine enge Perforierung mit einem Lochdurchmesser von etwa 1 mm sowie einer Dichte von etwa 30 Perforierungen pro cm2.This is achieved in addition to the perforation of the reflective tapes by the use of a special breathable adhesive, which is also not applied in the areas in which the perforations are arranged. This is expediently a narrow perforation with a hole diameter of about 1 mm and a density of about 30 perforations per cm 2 .
Es ist hierbei von Bedeutung, dass die Perforierungen nicht aufgrund der Form der Verbindung des Reflexbandes mit der Schutzbekleidung wieder zum Teil geschlossen werden. Daher ist es zweckmäßig, die Reflexbänder beispielsweise lediglich in ihren Randbereichen mit der Schutzbekleidung zu verkleben oder zu vernähen.It is important that the perforations are not partially closed again due to the shape of the connection of the reflective tape with the protective clothing. Therefore, it is expedient to glue or sewn the reflective tapes, for example, only in their peripheral areas with the protective clothing.
Das Offenhalten der Perforierungen wird erreicht, in dem ein Klebstofffilm bereits vor der Perforierung auf das Reflexband aufgebracht wird, der dann ebenso wie das Reflexband selbst bei der Perforierung durchbrochen wird. Auf diese Weise befindet sich Klebstoff nur noch in den Bereichen zwischen den Perforierungen, wodurch die Wirkung der Perforierung voll erhalten bleibt.The holding open of the perforations is achieved in that an adhesive film is applied to the reflective tape before the perforation, which is then broken as well as the reflective tape itself at the perforation. In this way, adhesive is only in the areas between the perforations, whereby the effect of the perforation is fully retained.
