Description

Die Erfindung betrifft eine Schutzbekleidung für Einsatzkräfte gemäß dem Oberbegriff von Patentanspruch 1.The invention relates to a protective clothing for emergency services according to the preamble of patent claim 1.

Einsatzkräfte, wie Feuerwehren oder dergleichen, tragen eine Schutzkleidung, die primär die Aufgabe hat, den Körper vor der Einwirkung von Hitze oder gefährlichen Medien zu schützen. Eine weitere Aufgabe der Schutzkleidung ist es, eine gute Sichtbarkeit der betreffenden Person zu gewährleisten, um auch unter schwierigsten Bedingungen den optischen Kontakt zur betreffenden Person aufrechterhalten zu können. Es gibt daher gesetzliche Vorschriften, über die Anbringung von speziellen Markierungen auf der Schutzkleidung, um dies zu gewährleisten. Diese Markierungen bestehen in der Regel aus zwei unterschiedlichen Materialien, nämlich einerseits retroreflektierenden Materialien, die in der Regel in Silber ausgeführt sind, und fluoreszierende Applikationen, die in der Regel gelb ausgeführt sind. Es sind aber auch rote und orange Materialien in Verwendung.Emergency personnel, such as fire brigades or the like, wear protective clothing whose primary function is to protect the body from the effects of heat or dangerous media. Another object of the protective clothing is to ensure good visibility of the person concerned in order to maintain the visual contact with the person concerned even under the most difficult conditions. Therefore, there are legal regulations on the application of special markings on the protective clothing to ensure this. These markers are usually made of two different materials, on the one hand retroreflective materials, which are usually made in silver, and fluorescent applications, which are usually carried out yellow. But there are also red and orange materials in use.

Die gebräuchlichste Form der Anordnung der beiden Materialien ist die eines sogenannten Kombinationsstreifens, das ist ein Streifen, aus einem fluoreszierendem Material mit darauf aufgebrachten retroreflektierendem silbernen Streifen.The most common form of arrangement of the two materials is that of a so-called combination strip, which is a strip of fluorescent material with a retroreflective silver strip applied thereto.

Es sind sogenannte Transferreflexstreifen bekannt, bei denen Glasperlen auf einer silbernen Grundfläche angebracht sind. In ähnlicher Weise können Streifen aus einem fluoreszierendem Grundmaterial hergestellt werden. Gemeinsam ist diesen Streifen, dass ein durch Hitze und Druck aktivierbarer Klebefilm vorgesehen ist, um diese Streifen mit dem Kleidungsstück selbst zu verbinden. Solche Streifen sind ungünstig in der Instandhaltung, da die Reinigungseigenschaften und Reparaturmöglichkeiten beschränkt sind und nach dem Aufkleben keine Veränderung mehr zulässig ist. Ein wesentlicher Nachteil dieser Streifen ist allerdings, die geringe oder nicht vorhandene Atmungsaktivität im Bereich der aufgeklebten Streifen. Gerade für Einsatzbekleidung ist es jedoch wesentlich, dass eine möglichst große Atmungsaktivität gegeben ist, da die Einsatzkräfte körperliche Schwerarbeit unter ungünstigsten Bedingungen leisten müssen. Wenn nun aufgrund gesetzlicher Vorschriften ein wesentlicher Teil der Oberfläche des Bekleidungsstücks mit solchen Signalstreifen versehen ist, dann wird die Atmungsaktivität des gesamten Kleidungsstücks so eingeschränkt, dass die Funktionalität wesentlich beeinträchtigt ist.There are so-called transfer reflective strips are known in which glass beads are mounted on a silver base. Similarly, stripes may be made from a fluorescent base material. Common to this strip is that a heat and pressure activatable adhesive film is provided to join these strips to the garment itself. Such strips are unfavorable in maintenance, since the cleaning properties and repair options are limited and after pasting no change is allowed. However, a significant disadvantage of these strips is the low or nonexistent breathability in the area of the glued strips. However, especially for work wear, it is essential that the greatest possible breathability is given, since the task forces must perform physical heavy work under the most unfavorable conditions. If, due to legal regulations, a substantial part of the surface of the garment is provided with such signal strips, then the breathability of the entire garment is limited so that the functionality is significantly impaired.

Alternativ ist aufnähbares Reflexmaterial bekannt, das sowohl retroreflektierend als auch fluoreszierend oder kombiniert ausgebildet sein kann. Auch für dieses Material besteht die Problematik, dass die Atmungsaktivität beeinträchtigt ist. Weitere Nachteile dieses Streifens sind mangelnde Reinigungseigenschaften und die Tatsache, dass kein textiler Griff gegeben ist.Alternatively, there is known an absorbable reflective material which can be formed both retroreflective and fluorescent or combined. Also for this material, the problem is that the breathability is impaired. Other disadvantages of this strip are lack of cleaning properties and the fact that no textile handle is given.

Aus der EP 0 890 318 A ist ein Bekleidungsstück bekannt, bei dem eine Innenhülle mit einer Außenhülle trennbar verbunden ist. Die Außenhülle ist dabei aus einem fluoreszierend gefärbtem Stoff hergestellt, der oleophobiert ist. Eine Jacke dieser Art ist nicht flammfest und kann im Feuerwehreinsatz nicht oder nur eingeschränkt verwendet werden.From the EP 0 890 318 A a garment is known in which an inner shell is separably connected to an outer shell. The outer shell is made of a fluorescent dyed fabric which is oleophobated. A jacket of this type is not flame resistant and can not be used in the fire service or limited.

Die WO 2006/128420 A offenbart eine Schutzbekleidung mit Reflexbändern, wobei zur Erhöhung der Atmungsaktivität eine Perforierung vorgesehen ist. Ähnliche Lösungen sind in der WO 03/011064 A oder der EP 0 917 888 A beschrieben. Diese Lösungen stellen nur eine Verlagerung des Problems dar, da es aufgrund gesetzlicher Vorschriften erforderlich ist, eine vorbestimmte Fläche reflektierend bzw. fluoreszierend auszubilden. Wenn nun ein nennenswerter Anteil von Löchern oder Perforierungen vorgesehen ist, so muss zur Erfüllung dieser Vorschriften die Bruttofläche der Applikationen entsprechend erhöht werden, was wiederum zu einer entsprechenden Beeinträchtigung der Atmungsaktivität führt. Somit ist auch hier keine tatsächliche Lösung des gestellten Problems zu erwarten.The WO 2006/128420 A discloses a protective garment with reflective tapes wherein perforation is provided to increase breathability. Similar solutions are in the WO 03/011064 A or the EP 0 917 888 A described. These solutions only represent a shift of the problem, because it is required by law to reflect or fluoresce a predetermined area. If a significant proportion of holes or perforations is now provided, the gross area of the applications must be correspondingly increased in order to comply with these regulations, which in turn leads to a corresponding impairment of the respiratory activity. Thus, no real solution of the problem is to be expected here.

Weitere bekannte Lösungen sind in der US 2004/0143882 A , der US 6,009,560 A und der US 2006/0030228 A offenbart.Other known solutions are in the US 2004/0143882 A , of the US 6,009,560 A and the US 2006/0030228 A disclosed.

Aufgabe der vorliegenden Erfindung ist es, diese Nachteile zu vermeiden und eine Lösung anzugeben, die nicht nur die gesetzlichen Anforderungen hinsichtlich Sichtbarkeit und Reflexionsverhalten erfüllt, sondern auch eine maximal mögliche Atmungsaktivität und damit einen optimalen Tragekomfort bietet.Object of the present invention is to avoid these disadvantages and to provide a solution that not only meets the legal requirements in terms of visibility and reflection behavior, but also provides maximum breathability and thus optimal comfort.

Erfindungsgemäß werden diese Aufgaben durch die Ausbildung gemäß Patentanspruch 1 gelöst.These objects are achieved by the embodiment according to claim 1.

Der Grundstreifen ist im Allgemeinen aus einem gelben, schwer entflammbaren, fluoreszierenden Gewebe hergestellt, das eine hohe Atmungsaktivität besitzt und eine sehr gute Reinigungsfähigkeit aufweist. Das Gewebe ist in der Regel auf der Basis von Baumwolle/Metacryl oder aus Mischungen mit Aramidfasern hergestellt, um die für den Feuerwehreinsatz erforderlichen mechanischen und thermischen Eigenschaften zu gewährleisten. Durch nanotechnologische Ausrüstung ist es möglich, dieses Gewebe mit schmutzabweisenden Eigenschaften, die auch nach vielen Waschvorgängen gegeben sind, auszurüsten. Der textile Charakter wird dadurch noch wesentlich verbessert. Knick- und Biegeverhalten verbessern sich besonders gut.The base strip is generally made of a yellow, flame retardant, fluorescent fabric which has high breathability and very good cleanability. The fabric is typically made of cotton / methacrylic or blended with aramid fibers to provide the mechanical and thermal properties required for firefighting operations. Nanotechnological equipment makes it possible to equip this fabric with dirt-repellent properties, which are also present after many washings. The textile character is thereby significantly improved. Bending and bending behavior improve particularly well.

Der retroreflektierende Streifen, der im Allgemeinen silberfarbig ist, kann auf dem Grundstreifen aufgenäht oder aufgeklebt werden. Beim Aufkleben wird der Grundstreifen samt den retroreflektierenden Streifen in eine Durchlaufpresse eingeschoben, in der die Streifen durch Anwendung von Hitze und Druck miteinander verklebt werden.The retroreflective strip, which is generally silver colored, can be sewn or glued to the base strip. When gluing the base strip together with the retroreflective strips is inserted into a continuous press in which the strips are glued together by applying heat and pressure.

Bei der erfindungsgemäßen Lösung wird die Atmungsaktivität wesentlich verbessert, da der gesamte Bereich des sichtbaren Grundstreifens atmungsaktiv ist. Reparaturen können ohne größeren Aufwand durchgeführt werden. Auch das Trageverhalten wird wesentlich verbessert, da die so aufgenähten Reflexstreifen bei der Bewegung problemlos falten bilden können.In the solution according to the invention, the breathability is substantially improved, since the entire area of the visible ground strip is breathable. Repairs can be carried out without much effort. Also, the wearing behavior is significantly improved, since the so-sewn-up reflective strips can easily form wrinkles during movement.

Von besonderem Vorteil ist es, wenn der Reflexstreifen, bestehend aus Grundstreifen und retroreflektierendem Streifen, auf das Grundmaterial aufgenäht ist. Auf diese Weise kann jegliche Beeinträchtigung der Atmungsaktivität vermieden werden.It is particularly advantageous if the reflective strip, consisting of base strip and retroreflective strip, is sewn onto the base material. In this way, any impairment of breathability can be avoided.

Eine besonders begünstigte Ausführungsvariante der Erfindung sieht vor, dass die Ränder des Grundstreifens eingeschlagen sind. Auf diese Weise wird einerseits ein Ausfransen der Ränder vermieden und es wird die Möglichkeit geschaffen, die Naht, mit der der Reflexstreifen auf dem Grundmaterial aufgenäht ist, im Bereich des eingeschlagenen Randes anzubringen. Dadurch kann eine besonders gute Befestigung erreicht werden und es kann die Gefahr des Durchscheuerns der Naht weitgehend vermieden werden.A particularly favorable embodiment variant of the invention provides that the edges of the base strip are hammered. In this way, on the one hand fraying of the edges is avoided and it is possible to attach the seam with which the reflective strip is sewn onto the base material in the region of the embossed edge. As a result, a particularly good fastening can be achieved and the risk of chafing through the seam can be largely avoided.

Bei der Ausführungsvariante von Fig. 1 ist der retroreflektierende Streifen 4 auf den Grundstreifen 2 aufgeklebt. Die Ränder 3 des Grundstreifens 2 sind nach unten eingeschlagen und die schematisch mit 5 angedeuteten Nähte sind im Bereich dieser eingeschlagenen Ränder 3 angeordnet.The protective clothing of Fig. 1 consists of a breathable base material 1 with a reflective strip 6 attached thereto, consisting of a base strip 2 made of a highly inflammable, flammable fluorescent fabric on which a retroreflective strip 4 is applied. In the embodiment of Fig. 1 the retroreflective strip 4 is glued to the base strip 2. The edges 3 of the base strip 2 are after taken below and schematically indicated with 5 seams are arranged in the region of these embossed edges 3.

Die Ausführungsvariante von Fig. 2 unterscheidet sich von der von Fig. 1 dadurch, dass der Grundstreifen 2 aus einem Bandmaterial besteht, das nicht ausfransende Ränder aufweist. Es sind daher die Ränder nicht eingeschlagen. Die Nähte mit denen der Grundstreifen 2 auf dem Grundmaterial 1 befestigt ist, sind mit 5a bezeichnet, während weitere Nähte, die den retroreflektierenden Streifen 4 halten, mit 5b bezeichnet sind.The variant of Fig. 2 is different from that of Fig. 1 in that the base strip 2 consists of a strip material which has non-fraying edges. It therefore the edges are not taken. The seams with which the base strip 2 is fastened on the base material 1 are designated by 5a, while further seams which hold the retroreflective strip 4 are indicated by 5b.

Die vorliegende Erfindung ermöglicht es, eine Schutzbekleidung für Einsatzkräfte darzustellen, die ein Höchstmaß an Atmungsaktivität aufweist und gleichzeitig robust und langlebig ist.The present invention makes it possible to present a protective garment for emergency personnel, which has the highest breathability and at the same time robust and durable.
