Definitions
- the invention relates to a protective suit, in particular a chemical protective suit, with a breathing air supply device, according to the preamble of claim 1.
- the breathing air supply device in this case has an automatic lung valve, which can be supplied with oxygen via a valve unit.
- the valve unit in turn has a bottle connection for the fluid connection of an oxygen cylinder which can be worn by a user of the protective suit and an external air connection to which an external supply unit can be connected, which can be formed, for example, by a stationary oxygen supply system.
- a switching valve is provided on the valve unit, by means of which the valve unit is switchable between a bottle supply position in which the regulator is fluidly connected to the bottle connection, and a foreign supply position in which the regulator is fluidly connected to the external air connection.
- a signal generator is provided on the breathing air supply means, by means of which at least one of the supply positions from the bottle supply position and foreign supply position can be signaled.
- Such protective suits are used in order to be able to supply the user with breathing air for longer periods of time by means of the foreign-care unit. If the external supply unit fails, or the connection between foreign unit and protective suit, for example, is interrupted by pinching or buckling of a supply hose, the valve unit automatically switches from the Fremdversogungshus to the bottle supply position.
- the valve units are equipped with a signal generator, which is activated when switching the switching valve, thus making the user aware of the supply by the oxygen cylinder.
- This signal generator generates a perceptible by the user acoustic or optical signal, as known for example from the chemical protection suit of the VSF series of Tesimax Altinger GmbH, 75242 Neuhausen-Steinegg.
- the user is made aware of the only available for a limited time breathing air supply by the generated signal so that he can retire in time from a contaminated area or can fix a fault in the external air supply.
- DE 35 29 487 C1 describes a switching valve for switching between an oxygen supply between a bottle supply and a supply via a compressed air line. For the user it is visually or through feel recognizable via a display pin provided on the valve, via which unit the compressed air supply is currently being effected.
- the changeover valve is connected to a belt holder.
- such suits are used in areas where there is a high level of noise. As a result, it may happen that the user overhears an acoustic signal generated by the valve unit and becomes aware of the cylinder supply only after a delay. With regard to the optical signal, it may also be that the user of the protective suit is so distracted by his work, for example, that he does not see his valve unit for a long time and therefore does not perceive the signal generated.
- Out DE 76 38 660 U1 is a ventilated suit with a cooling system known.
- a remaining refrigerant supply or a tightness of the cooling system can be displayed in the field of vision of the user.
- EP 0 940 159 A1 and EP 0 413 555 A1 describe respiratory masks, in whose field of view in each case an optical display for displaying an existing pressure of a Druckgasreservois or a gas pressure is provided within the mask.
- the object of the invention is to avoid the disadvantages mentioned in a generic protective suit and to ensure that the user is immediately made aware of the switching of the valve unit to the bottle supply position.
- the protective suit with the features of claim 1.
- the signal transmitter has a visual display, which is arranged in a hood. This ensures that the user of the suit, regardless of the level of noise prevailing at the workplace and regardless of how much he is distracted, notices the signal without delay.
- the optical display is arranged on a viewing window of the hood, whereby the optical signal can be generated in the direct field of view of the user and is thereby immediately perceived by the latter.
- optical display is held on a frame of the viewing window.
- the frame allows a simple and stable definition of the optical display.
- the optical display is adjustable as a function of a supply pressure, so that in addition to the switching of the valve unit, for example, also be pointed to a decreasing supply pressure in the portable oxygen cylinder or the foreign power unit.
- the optical display provides at least two illumination states in order to be able to signal the user at least two clearly distinguishable operating states.
- a light source can be provided by means of which different light states can be generated.
- at least two different lighting means may be provided.
- the at least two lighting states have different colors, whereby the user can be displayed in a particularly easy to understand different operating conditions.
- the luminous states can be generated by at least one two-color LED, whereby a low power consumption and a long lifetime of the optical display is ensured.
- a single LED which can change the color
- at least two LEDs with different colors can also be used.
- the optical display on a splash-proof housing, whereby damage to the optical display, for example when cleaning the protective suit can be avoided.
- a supply battery for the optical display is provided on the valve unit.
- the supply battery can be integrated particularly well in the rest Atemluftversogrungs announced.
- a pressure switch is further provided on the valve unit, which is acted upon by a pending at the external air supply pressure supply and by means of which the optical display can be activated.
- a pressure switch which may be formed, for example, as a membrane pressure switch, a secure activation of the optical display in response to the supply pressure of the external air connection is possible.
- valve unit has a circumferential seal between the external air connection and the pressure switch, which seals a passage of the valve unit through a material of the protective suit 4. This allows the pressure switch together with the optical display within the Protective suit and sealed against the ambient air of the protective suit can be arranged and operated.
- Fig. 1 shows a breathing air supply device 2 for use with a protective suit 4, in particular a chemical protective suit.
- the breathing air supply device 2 in this case has an available in a hood 6 of the protective suit 4 available respiratory machine 8, which is connected via a supply hose 10 with a valve unit 12.
- the valve unit 12 in this case has a bottle connection 14, which is connected via a bottle connection hose 16 with an oxygen cylinder 18.
- the oxygen cylinder 18 is dimensioned so that it can be carried in operation, for example by means of a carrying strap by a user (not shown).
- valve unit 12 has an external air connection 20, which can be connected to an external supply unit 24 via an external air connection hose 22, as shown by dash-dotted lines.
- the external supply unit 24 may be formed for example by a stationary supply line or by a larger reservoir.
- a switching valve 26 is provided on the valve unit 12. This is how in Fig. 2 represented by dashed lines, designed as a 3/2-way valve. This connects the supply hose 10 of the regulator 8 in response to a supply pressure applied to the external air connection 20 either in a foreign supply position with the external air connection 20 and thus with the foreign supply unit 24 or, as shown, in a bottle supply position with the bottle connection 14 and thus with the oxygen cylinder 18.
- the switching valve 26 is in the foreign supply position, as long as the external air connection 20, a supply pressure of at least 3 bar is applied. On the other hand, if the supply pressure at the external air connection 20 drops below 3 bar, the changeover valve 26 switches to the bottle supply position.
- valve unit 12 also has a pressure switch 28, which is formed for example by a diaphragm pressure switch and is also acted upon by the pending at the external air connection 20 supply pressure.
- the pressure switch 28 in this case has the same switching pressure as the switching valve 26 of, for example, 3 bar and is connected via an electrical line 30 to a battery housing 32 housed in a supply battery 34 and an optical display 36 (see Fig. 1 . 2 and 4 ).
- an on / off switch 38 is provided on the battery housing 32 (see Fig. 3 ), by means of which the electrical connection between the supply battery 34 and the optical display 36 can be interrupted in order to avoid an unnecessary discharge of the supply battery 34.
- valve unit 12 between the external air connection 20 and the switching valve 26 and the pressure switch 28, a seal D, which seals a passage of the valve unit 12 by a material of the protective suit 4, so that the external air connection 20 at one outside the protective suit 4th is held.
- the optical display 36 has, as in Fig. 4 shown by way of example, two light sources 40 in the form of a red and a green LED, so that two different lighting conditions can be displayed. Alternatively, only one LED could be used by means of which different luminous colors can be generated.
- the illustrated bulbs 40 are housed in a splash-proof display housing 42.
- the display housing 42 is in turn held on a frame 44 of a visor 46 of the hood 6.
- both the oxygen cylinder 18 and the foreign power unit 24 is connected to the valve unit 12.
- the Fremdversogungstician 24 with a supply pressure of at least 3 bar applied to the external air connection 20 the switching valve 26 is in the foreign supply position and the regulator 8 is supplied exclusively via the foreign supply unit 24 with oxygen.
- the changeover valve 26 switches over to the bottle supply position.
- the optical display 36 is now controlled via the pressure switch 28 so that instead of the green light bulb now the red light emitting means 40 is activated.
- the red light source 40 clearly signals to the user that only the limited oxygen supply of the oxygen cylinder 18 is available to him, so that he can remove himself in time from a contaminated environment.
Description
Die Erfindung betrifft einen Schutzanzug, wie insbesondere einen Chemikalienschutzanzug, mit einer Atemluftversorgungseinrichtung, nach dem Oberbegriff des Anspruchs 1. Die Atemluftversorgungseinrichtung weist dabei einen Lungenautomaten auf, der über eine Ventileinheit mit Sauerstoff versorgbar ist. Die Ventileinheit weist wiederum einen Flaschenanschluss zum strömungsmäßigen Anschluss einer von einem Benutzer des Schutzanzuges tragbaren Sauerstoffflasche sowie einen Fremdluftanschluss auf, an dem eine Fremdversorgungseinheit anschließbar ist, die beispielsweise durch ein stationäres Sauerstoffversorgungssystem gebildet sein kann. Zudem ist an der Ventileinheit ein Umschaltventil vorgesehen, mittels dem die Ventileinheit zwischen einer Flaschenversorgungsstellung, in der der Lungenautomat strömungsmäßig mit dem Flaschenanschluss verbunden ist, und einer Fremdversorgungsstellung umschaltbar ist, in der der Lungenautomat strömungsmäßig mit dem Fremdluftanschluss verbunden ist. Ferner ist an der Atemluftversorgungseinrichtung ein Signalgeber vorgesehen, mittels dem wenigstens eine der Versorgungsstellungen aus Flaschenversorgungsstellung und Fremdversorgungsstellung signalisierbar ist.The invention relates to a protective suit, in particular a chemical protective suit, with a breathing air supply device, according to the preamble of
Derartige Schutzanzüge werden verwendet, um den Benutzer mittels der Fremversorgungseinheit auch über längere Zeiträume hinweg mit Atemluft versorgen zu können. Falls die Fremdversorgungseinheit dabei ausfällt, oder die Verbindung zwischen Fremdversorgungseinheit und Schutzanzug, beispielsweise durch Einklemmen oder Knicken eines Versorgungsschlauches unterbrochen wird, schaltet die Ventileinheit automatisch von der Fremdversogungsstellung auf die Flaschenversorgungsstellung um. Da die Atemluftversorgung über die tragbare Sauerstoffflasche jedoch begrenzt ist, sind die Ventileinheiten mit einem Signalgeber ausgestattet, der beim Umschalten des Umschaltventils aktiviert wird und somit den ,Benutzer auf die Versorgung durch die Sauerstoffflasche aufmerksam macht. Dieser Signalgeber erzeugt ein vom Benutzer wahrnehmbares akustisches oder optisches Signal, wie beispielsweise vom Chemieschutzanzug der VSF Serie der Firma Tesimax Altinger GmbH, 75242 Neuhausen-Steinegg bekannt. Der Benutzer wird durch das erzeugte Signal auf die nur noch für begrenzte Zeit zur Verfügung stehende Atemluftversorgung aufmerksam gemacht, so dass er sich rechtzeitig aus einem kontaminierten Bereich zurückziehen kann beziehungsweise eine Störung der Fremdluftversorgung beheben kann.Such protective suits are used in order to be able to supply the user with breathing air for longer periods of time by means of the foreign-care unit. If the external supply unit fails, or the connection between foreign unit and protective suit, for example, is interrupted by pinching or buckling of a supply hose, the valve unit automatically switches from the Fremdversogungsstellung to the bottle supply position. However, since the breathing air supply through the portable oxygen cylinder is limited, the valve units are equipped with a signal generator, which is activated when switching the switching valve, thus making the user aware of the supply by the oxygen cylinder. This signal generator generates a perceptible by the user acoustic or optical signal, as known for example from the chemical protection suit of the VSF series of Tesimax Altinger GmbH, 75242 Neuhausen-Steinegg. The user is made aware of the only available for a limited time breathing air supply by the generated signal so that he can retire in time from a contaminated area or can fix a fault in the external air supply.
In einigen Fällen werden derartige Schutzanzüge in Bereichen verwendet, in denen ein hoher Geräuschpegel herrscht. Hierdurch kann es passieren, dass der Benutzer ein von der Ventileinheit erzeugtes akustisches Signal überhört und erst mit zeitlicher Verzögerung auf die Flaschenversorgung aufmerksam wird. Hinsichtlich des optischen Signals kann es zudem sein, dass der Benutzer des Schutzanzuges beispielsweise durch seine Arbeit derart stark abgelenkt ist, dass er längere Zeit nicht auf seine Ventileinheit sieht und somit das erzeugte Signal nicht wahrnimmt.In some cases, such suits are used in areas where there is a high level of noise. As a result, it may happen that the user overhears an acoustic signal generated by the valve unit and becomes aware of the cylinder supply only after a delay. With regard to the optical signal, it may also be that the user of the protective suit is so distracted by his work, for example, that he does not see his valve unit for a long time and therefore does not perceive the signal generated.

The frame allows a simple and stable definition of the optical display.
Vorteilhafterweise ist die optische Anzeige in Abhängigkeit eines Versorgungsdruckes verstellbar, so dass neben der Umschaltung der Ventileinheit beispielsweise auch auf einen geringer werdenden Versorgungsdruck in der tragbaren Sauerstoffflasche oder der Fremdversorgungseinheit hingewiesen werden kann.Advantageously, the optical display is adjustable as a function of a supply pressure, so that in addition to the switching of the valve unit, for example, also be pointed to a decreasing supply pressure in the portable oxygen cylinder or the foreign power unit.
Hierbei ist es günstig, wenn die optische Anzeige wenigstens zwei Leuchtzustände vorsieht, um dem Benutzer wenigstens zwei klar unterscheidbare Betriebszustände signalisieren zu können. Hierfür kann entweder ein Leuchtmittel vorgesehen werden, mittels dem unterschiedliche Leuchtzustände erzeugt werden können. Alternativ hierzu können aber auch wenigstens zwei unterschiedliche Leuchtmittel vorgesehen werden.In this case, it is favorable if the optical display provides at least two illumination states in order to be able to signal the user at least two clearly distinguishable operating states. For this purpose, either a light source can be provided by means of which different light states can be generated. Alternatively, however, at least two different lighting means may be provided.
Vorteilhafterweise weisen die wenigstens zwei Leuchtzustände dabei unterschiedliche Farben auf, wodurch dem Benutzer verschiedene Betriebszustände besonders leicht verständlich angezeigt werden können.Advantageously, the at least two lighting states have different colors, whereby the user can be displayed in a particularly easy to understand different operating conditions.
Ferner ist es günstig, wenn die Leuchtzustände durch wenigstens eine zweifarbige LED erzeugbar sind, wodurch ein geringer Stromverbrauch und eine lange Lebenszeit der optischen Anzeige gewährleistet ist. Alternativ zu einer derartigen einzelnen LED, die die Farbe wechseln kann, können auch wenigstens zwei LEDs mit unterschiedlichen Farben verwendet werden.Furthermore, it is favorable if the luminous states can be generated by at least one two-color LED, whereby a low power consumption and a long lifetime of the optical display is ensured. As an alternative to such a single LED, which can change the color, at least two LEDs with different colors can also be used.
In einer weiteren vorteilhaften Ausführungsform weist die optische Anzeige ein spritzwasserdichtes Gehäuse auf, wodurch Beschädigungen der optischen Anzeige beispielsweise beim Reinigen des Schutzanzuges vermieden werden.In a further advantageous embodiment, the optical display on a splash-proof housing, whereby damage to the optical display, for example when cleaning the protective suit can be avoided.
Zudem ist es günstig, wenn an der Ventileinheit eine Versorgungsbatterie für die optische Anzeige vorgesehen ist. Hierdurch kann die Versorgungsbatterie besonders gut in die übrige Atemluftversogrungseinrichtung integriert werden.In addition, it is favorable if a supply battery for the optical display is provided on the valve unit. As a result, the supply battery can be integrated particularly well in the rest Atemluftversogrungseinrichtung.
Dabei ist es in jedem Fall günstig, wenn die Versorgungsbatterie mittels eines Ein-/Ausschalters von der optischen Anzeige spannungsmäßig trennbar ist, um eine unnötige Entladung der Versorgungsbatterie zu vermeiden.It is advantageous in any case, when the supply battery by means of an on / off switch of the optical display is voltage separable to avoid unnecessary discharge of the supply battery.
Vorteilhafterweise ist an der Ventileinheit ferner ein Druckschalter vorgesehen, der von einem am Fremdluftanschluss anstehenden Versorgungsdruck beaufschlagt ist und mittels dem die optische Anzeige aktivierbar ist. Durch einen solchen Druckschalter, der beispielsweise als Membrandruckschalter ausgebildet sein kann, ist eine sichere Aktivierung der optischen Anzeige in Abhängigkeit vom Versorgungsdruck des Fremdluftanschlusses möglich.Advantageously, a pressure switch is further provided on the valve unit, which is acted upon by a pending at the external air supply pressure supply and by means of which the optical display can be activated. By such a pressure switch, which may be formed, for example, as a membrane pressure switch, a secure activation of the optical display in response to the supply pressure of the external air connection is possible.
Zudem ist es günstig, wenn die Ventileinheit zwischen dem Fremdluftanschluss und dem Druckschalter eine umlaufende Dichtung aufweist, die einen Durchtritt der Ventileinheit durch ein Material des Schutzanzuges 4 abdichtet. Hierdurch kann der Druckschalter zusammen mit der optischen Anzeige innerhalb des Schutzanzuges und abgedichtet gegenüber der Umgebungsluft des Schutzanzuges angeordnet und betrieben werden.In addition, it is favorable if the valve unit has a circumferential seal between the external air connection and the pressure switch, which seals a passage of the valve unit through a material of the
