Description

Modular support system

The invention relates to a modular support system according to the preamble of claim 1.

Furthermore, the invention relates to a modular support system according to the preamble of claim 29 and to a modular support system according to the preamble of claim 34. The invention also relates to a hip belt for use with a modular support system according to claim 28.

A generic modular support system is known from DE 10 2009 042 455 AI. The support system known from the generic document has a ballistic protective vest. Such protective vests are commonly used in the military and police to protect people from injury from stabbing or bullet attacks. The protective vest has at least one ballistic ^¬ formed back part and usually also a ballistic trained front. Further, means for attachment to a human upper body are provided, which may be a shoulder strap and a fastening belt. This allows the vest to reliably on

Attach upper body of a human. Furthermore, the support system known from the generic document comprises a hip belt, on which laterally two rod-shaped supports are provided. The lateral Abstützungen are attached at one end to the waist belt and the other end to a support device. The carrying device is used while filling with loads to be carried. This may in particular be a backpack. By the lateral Abstützungen the weight of the support means is at least partially introduced into the hip belt and transmitted to this. The supports are attached to the side of the waist belt, which is to be understood laterally that the supports are left and right of the body of a human if the generic support system is worn correctly.

The method known from the generic font modular support ^¬ system in addition to the supporting device has a housing which is substantially adapted to the height and the width of the back portion of the ballistic vest. The housing is used to hold electronic components and / or electronic devices, such as a radio. The use of an electronic housing is in particular ^¬ special then advantageous if the support system is used for military purposes.

Compared with the known support systems, as are known for example from US 5,184,763, known from the generic document support system has the advantage of a modular structure. Furthermore, it is possible in the generic-type support system to throw off individual components quickly in an emergency. It has also been found in the generic support system as an advantage that the bal ^¬ listische vest has both shoulder straps and a fastening strap and in addition a separate from the vest waist belt is formed, which runs un ^¬ below the fastening belt. The known from the general state of the art support systems have - with the exception of the generic support system - only a mounting strap, which is designed as part of the protective vest. A waist strap, to the lateral supports via gravitational forces may be initiated by a jerk ^¬ sack or the like directly, is not known from the prior art. For example, US 2009/0127299 A1 shows a carrying system with a shoulder strap and a fastening strap, it being possible to connect pieces of luggage to the back of the carrying system, possibly also several pieces of luggage serially one behind the other. An advantageous exemplary ^¬ Introduction of weight forces in a hip belt, so that the shoulders of the wearer to be relieved therefrom is not known. A similar concept also shows the US

5,503,314. Although the fastening strap extends in the region ei ^¬ ner hip, but Not to be used ^¬ net due to its construction, bypassing the backbone weight forces also increase with up ^¬ play, from a transmitting to a backpack.

Another support system is known from WO 2007/114702 AI. In this case, a base support is provided, which can be attached to a human upper body. A back part of the main body can be connected via a connecting element with a separate hip belt. The connecting element engages laterally on the hip belt or is anchored there. The loads to be carried are coupled directly to the back according to WO 2007/114702 AI. This in turn causes the weight of the to be carried Load due to the coupling to the back predominantly on the shoulders of a human upper body.

A similar solution is also shown in WO 2008/089128 A2, see there in particular Figure 7. The loads to be supported are attached to the back part, whereby the main weight of the load to be supported acts on the shoulder of a human upper body, only part of the load to be supported is transferred from the back to the hip belt. An additional fastening strap is not provided. In contrast, the well-known from DE 10 2009 042 455 AI gat ^¬ tion support system has the decisive advantage that the weight of the load to be carried is introduced directly bypassing the back of the ballistic protective vest directly on the lateral Abstützungen in the hip belt. The ballistic protective vest itself, it has ^¬ gänzend to the hip belt a fastening belt, so-called wings, which are connected to one another for example via a Klettverbin ^¬ dung. The support system according to DE 10 2009 042 455 Al has proven to be very advantageous compared to the prior art.

The inventor has now, however, recognized that lateral waste subsidies as they are sawn known from the generic support system, or as AI result from the WO 2007/114702, in terms of its freedom of movement of the wearer in situations disadvantageous be ^¬ Sonderen can. Furthermore, the inventor has recognized that it may be particularly important for military applications that the support system, in particular if this is in different configurations, that is, with different system components. used, is easy and intuitive to use. Furthermore, the inventor recognized that, in turn, is particularly crucial in particular for military applications that the support system in case of need can be quickly remo ^¬ men or discard. Furthermore, recognized by the inventors that it is advantageous if the ballistic From ^¬ armor is optional and in particular a ANPAS ^¬ sung to the size and the physique of the wearer is possible.

The present invention is therefore based on the object to solve the disadvantages of the prior art, in particular to create a simple structure, particularly practical and ro ^¬ bustes supporting system, especially for military applications.

This object is achieved according to claim 1, having a modular support system consisting of at least the nachfol ^¬ constricting system components

a. a protective vest with at least one back part and means for attachment to a human upper body,

b. a waist belt,

c. a carrying device for filling with loads to be carried, wherein the carrying device has carrying shoulder straps for attachment to a human upper body, and

d. a housing for receiving an electronic unit, wherein the housing is attachable to the back of the protective ^¬ vest,

The hip belt has a connecting element for attaching the protective vest without interposing the housing. bind, and wherein the connecting element is designed to carry weight forces of the protective vest on the hip belt over ^¬ . Furthermore, this object is achieved according to the invention according to claim 29 by a modular support system with a vest with we ^¬ least one back part and means for attachment to a human upper body, the back of the vest can be connected to other system components, and wherein at least a part of the means for Attachment to a human upper body eyelets or receiving ^{openings has} hen and the back is provided with fastening loops ^¬ hen, the attachment loops are introduced into the eyelets or Aufnahmeoffnungen and wherein at least one elongate fixing is provided, which by the inserted into the eyelets or Aufnahmeoffnungen ends of the attachment loops is feasible and the eyelets or receiving openings, the attachment loops and the elongate fixing element are such that the fastening fastening loops after passing through the elongated fixing element no longer through the eyelet or the receiving opening are executable, wherein the elongate fixing element has an operating element to zuz the fixing from the attachment loops out.

Furthermore, this object is achieved according to claim 34 by a modular support system consisting of at least ei ^¬ ner protective vest with at least one back and means for attachment to a human upper body, wherein at the human upper body facing the inside of the back of the vest a back pad - Can be brought, and wherein the back pad on the inside of the back part by a Velcro fastened height adjustable and attached to the back at least one back pad attachment tab is attached, which folds after positioning the back pad on the human torso facing inside of the back pad and there over a Velcro connection is fixable.

A particularly advantageous hip belt for use with a modular support system results from claim 28. It is provided that the hip belt has a coupling to directly couple a carrying device, which is intended to be filled with loads to be carried, the hip belt has for the transmission of compressive forces suitable connector in order to connect a back portion of a protective vest directly, and wherein the coupling of the hip belt and the connecting element of the hip belt are positioned adjacent to a lower portion of a human spine at the back of a human ^¬ union upper body when the hip belt is created correctly.

The solutions according to the invention significantly increase the wearing comfort of the support system compared with the previously known solutions. The solutions according to the invention also simplify handling and ensure simple and rapid connection or removal of the individual system components of the modular support system.

Advantageous solutions result, inter alia, from the dependent claims, wherein the claims related back to claim 1 also advantageous solutions with respect to the support system represent according to claim 28 or 33 or can find use for this purpose.

Due to the fact that the connecting element between the hip belt and the protective vest is suitable, weight forces of the

To transfer protective vest on the waist belt or by its design for the transmission of compressive forces results in a good load distribution. The inventor has found that it is particularly important to increase the wearing comfort that the hip belt absorbs as large a proportion of the forces to be supported, whereby the shoulder of the wearer is relieved.

It is advantageous if the connecting element connects the hip belt without the interposition of the housing with the vest ^¬ protection. Thus, the advantages of the hip belt ^¬ can also use, when the carrier carries no case for housing an electronic unit. Further, the inventor has found that the power flow is improved thereby.

It is also advantageous if the hip belt is connected via exactly one connecting element with the back part. It is advantageous if the connecting element is formed on the rear ^¬ side of the hip belt and along a human spine on the back upwards, when the hip belt is applied correctly, the facing away from the hip ^¬ belt upper portion of the connecting element with the back part the protective vest is connectable. This solution has proven to be particularly suitable. The fact that the connecting element along the human spine on the back upwards, on the one hand good relief of the spine and a good absorption of the forces is achieved. On the other hand, as a result of the fact that the connecting element runs along the spinal column-unlike a design with two lateral supports-the freedom of movement of the wearer is improved. The connecting element can essentially follow the movement of the spine. Preferably, the connecting element can be arranged on the back of the hip belt in the region of the human loin or in the lower region of the loin and extend from there parallel and along the spine upwards. It is sufficient if the connecting element extends so far along the spine that a secure and reliable connection with the

Protective vest can be made.

It is advantageous furthermore, if the at least one partial piece of the connecting element spring-loaded and / or elastic and / or damped is formed and / or the connection element ^¬ sprung in the vertical direction to the hip belt and / or the protective jacket is mounted. The sprung arrangement or the elastic configuration may preferably be selected such that in the vertical direction, when the support system is correctly applied, a damping or an elasticity or a suspension is present. Furthermore, the connecting element should preferably be able to follow a movement of the spine. It can be sufficient if one or more part / s of the connecting element is / are elastically formed.

It is advantageous if the connecting element a

Pivoting movement allows relatively between the back part of the protective vest and the hip belt to a perpendicular to the back part extending pivot axis. Thereby, a tilt ^¬ movement of the upper body of the wearer of the support system to the left or to the right - relative to the hip of the wearer - not limited. In a design of two seitli ^¬ chen supports, which connect the waist strap to the vest, a lateral tilting of the upper body relative to the hip was partially restricted. It is advantageous if the hip belt has a coupling on ^¬ to couple the support means without interposition of the housing on the hip belt.

In the solutions of the prior art, it is provided that the carrying device, which is intended to be filled with lases to be carried, for example, a backpack o- a luggage receptacle, is attached directly to the protective vest or ei ^¬ nem applied to the human upper body base frame , Thus, the weight of the carrying device (backpack or luggage) is directly on the

Shoulders of the wearer has been transferred, whereby the wearing comfort is adversely affected. The inventor has now developed a solution in which the support device acts directly on the hip belt or be coupled so that the weight forces are introduced ^¬ belt of the carrying device directly into the hip. This is opposite to the state of the art Technology a decisive advantage. Furthermore, it is possible to dispense with the interposition of a housing (for accommodating electronic components), so that the coupling of the carrying device can take place independently of whether a housing is provided for accommodating electronic components or not.

It is advantageous if the carrying device has shoulder straps so that the carrying device, like a backpack, can be picked up by the wearer. Thus, although forces also act on the shoulder of a human body, but to a much lesser extent than when the carrying device is coupled to the back of the protective vest.

It is advantageous if the coupling of the hip belt is formed at the rear of the hip belt and adjacent to a human ^¬ Liche spine, when the waist belt is correctly inserted ^¬ is. Furthermore, it is advantageous if the coupling is formed below the connecting element on the outside of the back of the hip belt.

It has proven to be advantageous to form the coupling on the back, in particular on the outside of the hip belt in the region of the spine, since at this point a particularly advantageous introduction of the weight forces is possible and also the mobility of the wearer is not limited. Further, the coupling is optionally located in a line, with respect to the course of the spine, with the connecting element between the waist belt and the protective vest, which in turn by this arrangement the mobility of the wearer is not unnecessarily restricted.

It is also advantageous if the connecting element and the back part offset in the vertical direction form multiple Ver ^¬ binding sites, so that a detachable, height-adjustable connection of the connecting element with the rear ^¬ enteil is produced. A height-adjustable connection or connection of the connecting member makes it possible to adjust the distance between the hip belt and ^¬ einzu the back individually to the carrier ^¬. The distance between the hip belt and the Rückent ^¬ eil can thus be increased or decreased, depending on the demand to which connecting points, the connecting element, viewed in the vertical direction, is connected to the back part. To connect the connecting element to the Rückent ^¬ express various detachable connections, optionally also non-releasable connections are also conceivable. It is advantageous if the connecting element can be fixed to the back without zuhilfe ^¬ takeover of tools. It is for example possible to connect the back part and the Verbindungsele ^¬ ment via a loop system with each other. It is advantageous if the back has fastening tabs which comprise the connecting element and example ^¬ can be fixed by a Velcro connection.

It is advantageous if at least one of the two laterally and vertically extending side edges of the connecting element has a sawtooth-like profile section provided with projections and grooves. It is also advantageous if the connecting element has a substantially flat, plate-like structure, wherein the main surfaces of the plate-shaped structure extend substantially plane-parallel to the back of the back part of the protective vest and wherein the two laterally and vertically extending side edges of the connecting element each have a mirror image arranged, have sawtooth-like profile section.

Through this embodiment of the connecting element several advantageous effects are achieved. The sawtooth-like profile section of the two laterally and vertically extending side edges of the connecting element can already enable a certain basic elasticity or mobility in particular such that the carrier of the support system can tilt to the left and to the right. It may be advantageous if at least one remaining between two mirror-inverted grooves portion of the connecting element is formed elastically or sprung. The elastic or sprung sections may correspond in their effect to the spinal discs of a spinal column. It can be provided that only one or two, but also several, possibly also all sections that are located between two opposing grooves of two parallel, sawtooth-shaped side edges are formed elastically or sprung.

A further particular advantage of the sawtooth-like design of a profile section is that the sawtooth-like profile section is used particularly advantageously can be used to connect the connecting element with the back part. It may be advantageous, for example, to provide the back of the back part with a plurality of vertically überei ^¬ nander arranged fasteners with which the connecting element of the hip belt on the back part in the variable height can be fixed. The sawtooth-like profile sections-possibly also only a sawtooth-like profile section-make it particularly advantageous to produce a positive connection with the back part. Due to the regular design of the sawtooth-like profile, the connecting element can be arranged particularly easily at different points of the back part in the vertical direction. It is advantageous if also the inside of the back part has a plurality of vertically stacked fasteners.

It is also advantageous if each fastening element has two attachment tabs, which are superimposed in each case in the region of the grooves of the connecting element and preferably connectable to one another by means of a hook-and-loop fastener.

This configuration results in a particularly simp ^¬ che, producible by hand connection between the yields connects dung element and the back. The connection can be easily opened and closed. Characterized in that the supply tabs are Fixed To ^¬ placed in the grooves and in the grooves of the connecting member one above the other, the result is to ^¬ additionally to the fixing by the hook and loop fastener also egg ne positive connection. The compound has proved to be particularly stable if at least two Preferably, three or more pairs of grooves of the connecting element are used to make there fastening tabs of the back part connect. For this purpose, it is advantageous if the back part has two, preferably three or more fastening tab pairs. By applying the connecting element at the desired location of

At the back the distance between the vest and the hip belt can be adjusted. By attaching the fastening tabs in the grooves of the connecting element can then fix the desired distance between the protective vest and the hip belt.

The connection of the hip belt with the protective vest was shown before ^¬ standing (and also below) on the basis of a releasable determination of the connecting element on the back. Alternatively, however, it is also possible that the connecting element is releasably held on the hip belt angeord ^¬ net on the back part. The above and also the following description is to be understood as meaning that a determination is made in exactly the opposite manner.

It is advantageous if the pre see ^¬ nen in the protective vest means for attachment to a human upper body comprise a passage extending above the hip belt fastening belt and / or two extending through a human shoulder shoulder strap which can be fastened or fixed respectively to the back part of the vest , Such a determination of the protective vest on a human upper body has been found to be particularly suitable. In particular, an embodiment is suitable in which the

Means for attachment to a human upper body two Include a shoulder strap and a fastening strap running above the hip belt. The prior art discloses either predominantly a fastening belt or a hip ^¬ belt. Partially, the fastening belt runs in the region of a hip. The inventor has recognized, however, that it is advantageous if the protective vest has a fastening belt which is independent of the hip belt and runs above the hip belt. The fastening belt can preferably be closed by a Velcro fastener. The fastening belt can preferably be formed from two side wings.

It is advantageous if the ends of the fastening strap facing the back part are provided with eyelets or receiving openings and the back part has fastening loops, the fastening loops being pluggable through the eyelets or receiving openings, and at least one elongate fixing element being provided by the eyelet in the eyelets or receiving openings introduced ends of the

Fastening loops is feasible, and the eyelets or receiving openings, the attachment loops and the elongate fixing element are such that the fastening ^¬ loops are no longer executable by the eyelets or the Aufnahmeoffnungen after performing the elongated fixing element, wherein the elongate fixing element is a control ^¬ element has to pull out the fixing from the mounting ^¬ loops. The inventor has recognized that this design enables a fast, simple and reliable shedding of the protection vest is possible. By preferably a pulling movement on the operating part, the elongate fixing element can be pulled out of the fastening loops. Thereby, the attachment loops can slip out of the eyelets or receiving openings of the fastening belt, which is its mountings ^¬ gungsgurt detached from the back part. Now only at least one shoulder strap (if available) must be removed to remove the protective vest from the wearer. Furthermore, it may be necessary for the hip belt, which as a rule has a buckle, similar to an aircraft buckle, also to be loosened. This too is quick and easy. From the prior art, such an advantageous dropout logic is not known. It has proven to be advantageous if the rear ^¬ enteil has attachment loops or mounting sleeves and at least one end of the fastening belt ent ^¬ speaking eyelets through which the loops or sleeves can be inserted. The elongate fixing element may preferably be formed as a wire or rope, in particular as a plug-in wire.

In their function, fastening loops in the context of the invention correspond to fastening sleeves, which is why below will be discussed only on mounting sleeves. However, the disclosure should apply to both variants.

It is generally sufficient if it is to release the buildin ^¬ tigungsgurts one of the two ends of the fastening belt, which is fixed to the back part dissolved.

Of course, it is also possible that both Ends are connected in the manner described above with the Rückent ^¬ eil and optionally can be solved accordingly. It is advantageous may be present when the, preferably having at least one En ^¬ de both ends of the fastening belt each have a plurality in the circumferential direction of the fastening belt staggered eyelets or receiving openings. This makes it particularly easy to adapt the fastening strap to different body sizes.

It is advantageous if at least one of the two Schul ^¬ terriemen the protective vest at its the back part facing ^¬ th end at least one eyelet or a receiving opening has and the back has attachment loops, where ^¬ in each case a fastening loop in an associated eyelet or Aufnahmeoffnung can be inserted and wherein at least one elongate fixing element is provided, which is feasible by the inserted into the eyelet or receiving opening end of the corresponding fastening loop, and the eyelets or Aufnahmeoffnungen, the attachment loops and the elongate fixing element are such that the fastening loop after performing the elongated fixing element is no longer executable by the eyelet or the Aufnahmeöff- tion, wherein the elongate fixing element has an operating element to extract the fixing element from the fastening loops ^¬ tion.

Due to the fact that the logic of the connection of at least one of the two shoulder straps on the back part corresponds to the logic of the connection of the fastening belt, a simple Handling achieved. If required, by a simple Be ^¬ movement, preferably a pulling movement, the elongate Fixie ^¬ Rdevice (again, preferably a wire or a cable, especially a pintle wire) from the or the fastening loops with which or which of the shoulder straps to the back part is attached, pulled, whereby the connection is released. Insofar as the protective vest also has a fastening belt which is loosened in a similar manner, the entire protective vest can be thrown off by pulling out the elongate fixing elements with one movement.

The inventor has realized that it can be sufficient if only a shoulder strap is released. The protective vest then drops off quickly and easily on the other shoulder. However, it is advantageous if ^¬ de shoulder straps are secured by appropriate attachment loops and eyelets on the back with the help of the same elongated fixing. As a result, both shoulder straps can be detached from the back by pulling out a longitudinal fixing element, as a result of which the protective vest falls off or can be removed from the carrier in a particularly advantageous manner.

It is advantageous if the attachment loops for connecting a first end of the fastening strap form a first loop row through which a first fixing element is feasible and wherein a second fixing is least ^¬ least feasible through the fastening loop of a arranged on the same half of the back first shoulder strap and wherein the first and the second fixie ^¬ relement by a common operating part of the fastening tion loops are pulled to release the first end of the fastening ^¬ tion belt and at least the first shoulder strap of the back part. By means of this solution it can be achieved that both the fastening belt and at least one first shoulder strap are released by a movement, preferably a pulling movement, on a common operating part. In order to achieve a favorable ejection of the protective vest, it is part of biasing, when the first end of the fastening belt and the ers ^¬ te shoulder strap on the same half of the back part, at ^¬ play as both the left (if the vest is properly GETRA ^¬ gen) or both right, are arranged. Thus, all fasteners are solved on this side of the vest, making the vest can be particularly easy to fall off.

It is advantageous if the second elongate fixing element solves both shoulder straps. This is structurally easy to achieve.

It can be provided that a third preferably Fi ^¬ xierelement is used to define the second end of Fixed To ^¬ gungsgurts to the back part. It has issued ^¬ ago that it is not necessary for quick disposal of body armor to solve the second end of the mounting ^¬ belt from the back. However, a third fixing element can be provided to allow a simple connection of the second end of the fastening strap to the back part, in particular in view of the fact that the circumferential length of the fastening strap is due to the presence of several eyelets or receiving openings in the region of the second End of the fastening belt particularly easily changed ^¬ who can.

It is advantageous if the shoulder straps have a plurality of behind each other arranged eyelets or receiving openings, which make it possible to connect the shoulder strap according to the size of the wearer to the back, ie to change the relevant for the wearer length of the shoulder strap. In principle, it is of course also possible that the back part has receiving openings or eyelets and the or the shoulder strap and / or the fastening strap or its ends have fastening loops. A connection of the shoulder straps or the fastening strap can also be realized in that the eyelets or receiving openings and the fastening loops are formed exactly on the other element. However, it has been found to be advantageous if the back part have Be ^¬ fixing loops and the means for securing to a human upper body through eyelets or receiving apertures. Nevertheless, both variants are to be disclosed hereby.

It is advantageous if attachment points for attaching the attachment loops and / or the attachment elements are integrated in the back part. In principle, it can be seen before ^¬ that the attachment loops or fasteners are bolted to the back, riveted or otherwise form, force or materially connected. However, it has herausge ^¬ is particularly advantageous when integrated into the back mounting points are, to which preferably separate fastening ^¬ loops are attached.

The attachment points on the back part for connecting the

Shoulder straps, the fastening belt and / or the connecting element can be formed as inserts, which are integrated in bores, preferably in through-holes, of the back part. The deposits can ^{vorzugswei ¬} se be designed as threaded sleeves. The threaded sleeves can have an internal thread, which serves to receive a screw. The screw can thereby serve as game at ^¬ for fastening a shoulder strap-guiding elements ^¬ or a fastening strap or of a Fixed To ^¬ restriction member. The fixation of an insert, in particular a threaded sleeve, in a bore in the back part can take place, for example, by crimping or deforming the threaded sleeve after insertion into the bore, so that the threaded sleeve can no longer be pulled out of the bore. The threaded sleeve or generally the insert can preferably be made of metal, in particular of Mes ^¬ sing.

In one embodiment of the invention can also be provided that in the insert or in the threaded sleeve an additional element is screwed, which has a slot or a slot through which the fastening ^¬ loops or fasteners or the fastening ^¬ tion tabs can be plugged.

Regardless of the aforementioned embodiment may

Be beneficial if the attachment points a slot have a slot through which the fastening loops or the fastening elements can be inserted, so that the fastening loops or the fastening elements, for example, by a thickened end in the slot or the slot are fixed. This allows the loading ^¬ fastening loops or fasteners at ^¬ play as if they are damaged, fast and easy to replace. Furthermore, the fastening loops or the fastening elements can be easily connected to the back part in this way.

It is advantageous if the back portion is a random-inflammatory plate or one of a puncture resistant material fabric ^¬ te plate. Preferably, the back plate is formed of aramid, optionally, the back plate also Sili ^¬ zium on.

It may be advantageous if the back part is formed from a plurality of plane-parallel arranged layers. As a result, if necessary, an advantageous puncture protection can be achieved. It is advantageous in this case if the attachment points are integrated into the back part during the pressing of the layers. As a result, the attachment points, which in this case have preference ^{¬ a} slot, reliable, simple and resilient connected to the back.

In one embodiment of the invention it can be provided that the back part has one, preferably several, preferably four closed layers. Further, the back part may be one, preferably several, preferably four thereto planpa ^¬ rallel arranged layers verse- with slots hen are. The attachment point can extend through the slots to the outside, preferably such that the point of attachment with its oblong hole at a Innensei ^¬ te of the back part, ie on the side which is oriented towards the body of the wearer protrudes. In order to avoid that the attachment points slip out of the slots of the slotted layers, the attachment points may have a correspondingly enlarged and preferably flat foot region. The foot area can rest on a closed position.

It is advantageous if a back pad is attached to the inner side of the back part of the protective vest facing the human upper body.

By the back cushion, the wearing comfort is significantly increased, in particular the discharge logic, ie the connection of the shoulder straps and the fastening strap on the back part and the other technical embodiment of the back part covered, so that they do not interfere with the body of the wearer. It is advantageous if the back pad is mounted vertically adjustable on the inside of the back part by a Velcro connection. For this purpose, it may be provided that the inside of the back part and the correspondingly facing side of the back pad each have correspondingly Velcro elements. The back pad can be particularly easy to apply to the inside of the back, especially at different heights. It is advantageous if at least one back cushion fastening strap is attached to the back part, which is foldable after positioning of the back pad on the inside of the back pad facing the human upper body and there fixable via a Velcro connection.

Particularly advantageous it is, when a fastening ^¬ flap attached to two vertically extending side edges of the back part, and also on the underside of the back part an attachment tab, preferably are formed two Be ^¬ fastening tabs which can be folded down after the application of the back cushion. The back pad is thus fixed particularly reliable on the back. It is advantageous if the back pad is provided with a weft and / or puncture resistant security insert and / or the back pad has a slot for a shot and / or stab-resistant security insert. Preferably, the security insert is designed as a shot-retardant plate. For example as SKI, preferably as SK4 plate. However, any hard and / or softballistic embodiments of the security insert are possible. In conjunction with the stab-resistant design of the back part, this results in good protection. The advantage here is that the relatively heavy ballistic safety insert ^{¬ is} carried only when needed, ie is introduced into the back cushion. The insertion of the security insert is preferably formed in obe ^¬ ren region of the back pad. It may be advantageous if the hip belt has a leather trim that abuts a human body when the hip belt is worn correctly. As a result, a higher friction is achieved, thus reducing slippage of the hip belt relative to the body.

It is advantageous if a shoulder strap guide element is provided, which is fastened to the back part in such a way that a longitudinal gap remains between the shoulder strap guide element and the back part, which makes it possible to carry out the end of the shoulder strap intended for fastening to the back part, wherein the shoulder strap guide element above a fastening loop of the back part, which is pre ^¬ see for fixing the shoulder strap, is arranged.

The inventor has recognized that the attachment of the shoulder strap to the back part is relieved by the shoulder strap guiding element. It creates a resting point. On the other hand, however, a rapid release of the shoulder ^¬ belt is not hindered by the back part through the shoulder strap guide member. The shoulder strap guide ^¬ element can be easily screwed onto the back part. To be particularly advantageous, it has issued forth ^¬ when the shoulder belt guide member comprises an elongated guide member which is rotatably mounted and ro ^¬ tierbar and the respective shoulder strap transversely or diagonally spans. The rotating or rotatable arrangement makes it particularly easy to carry out the Shoulder strap through the longitudinal gap allows. Furthermore, a quick withdrawal is supported.

It is advantageous if the hip belt is padded on the side facing the wearer.

In the system components shown in FIG. 1 is a protective vest 2, a hip belt 3, a Tragein ^¬ direction 4 and a housing 5. The aforementioned Systemkompo ^¬ components are hereinafter illustrated in the figures 2 to 14, but here merely exemplary. A combination of the system components, as shown in Fig. 1, is not mandatory, but the system components can also individually or in other combinations, especially with other equipment features are used.

According to FIG. 1, the protective vest 2 has at least one back part 6 and means for attachment to a human

Upper body up. The means for attachment to a human upper body are formed as shown in FIG. 1 as a shoulder strap 7 and as a fastening strap 8. Furthermore, the protective vest ^¬ 2 optional on even a front part. 9 The back part 6 and / or the front part 9, if present, may have ballistic equipment, ie provide protection against shot and / or stab wounds. In this case, it is in the protective vest a bal ^¬ listische protective vest as reflected particularly in military applications. The back part 6 and / or the front part 9 may be optional ge from a composite ^¬ forms.

In the exemplary embodiment is optionally provided that the back part 6 itself offers only a puncture protection.

The hip belt 3 according to FIG. 1 has a connecting element 10 in order to connect the protective vest 2 to the hip belt 3. The connecting element 10 is adapted to weight forces from the protective jacket 2 to the waist belt 3 to übertra ^¬ gene. Further, the waist strap 3, a coupling 11. The coupling 11 is used for engaging or for connecting the support means 4. This relieves the shoulders of the wearer. The coupling 11 shown in FIG. 1 has an insertion region with an insertion bevel, so that the coupling member 12 to be coupled into the coupling 11, at which is z. B. can act around a pin, a pin or a pin, is particularly easy to insert. For coupling the carrying device 4 to the hip belt 3, various embodiments of the coupling are conceivable and can be combined with the other features illustrated in the exemplary embodiments. It is advantageous if the coupling of the support means 4 takes place on the hip belt 3 only over a point in such a way that the support means 4 a

Can perform pivotal or rotational movement relative to the hip belt about an axis perpendicular to the back part axis.

The clutch 11 of the hip belt 3 is formed on the back of the hip belt 3 and adjoins a human spinal column, more specifically the lower portion of a loin, when the hip belt is correctly put on.

As can be seen from FIG. 1, the fastening belt 8 extends above the hip belt 3.

The hip belt 3 may preferably be closed via a buckle 25, as is known, for example, from aircraft ^seats . On the body of the wearer facing inside of the hip belt 3, a padding 26 may be formed.

At the back of the hip belt can optionally a pocket, for example, in particular in the field of the human spine. B. be formed for receiving a pedometer. The housing 5 is preferably used in the embodiment for receiving an electronic unit. From this electronic unit, an An ^¬ antenna 13 is merely exemplified in Fig. 14. The housing 5 is mounted in Fig. 1 at the back of the protective vest 2, more precisely on the outside of the back part 6 of the protective vest 2. In an optio ^¬ nal embodiment can be dispensed with the housing 5 also. The attachment of the housing 5 on the protective jacket 2 can on various measures, such as closing a zip, a form-fitting or force-fitting Verbin ^¬ dung or to a Velcro system, carried out for instance by means of attachment tabs and / or of a flat hook and loop connection. In the exemplary embodiment is provided as ei ^¬ ne possible variant, to which the embodiment should not be limited, provided that the protective vest 2 has a not shown in detail loop system 14 and a similar loop system 14 is also formed on the outside of the housing 5. Such, insbesonde ^¬ re known from military applications strap system 14 allow for easy and flexible mounting components. Such a loop system is also referred to as Molle loops. The loop system 14 may for this purpose have a plurality of rows of loops in a known manner. The loops of the loops of the components to be connected, in this case the protective vest 2 and the housing 5 are arranged such that the loops of a row of loops can be fitted into the spaces between the loops of the other row of loops. This makes it possible that a strip-shaped Schiaufenreihen- connecting element, preferably a plastic strip, which is also preferably coated with textile, through the Loops of composite loops can be pushed through. The plastic strip may be such that it is longer than the rows of loops, through which it is to be pushed, so that the protruding ends of the plastic strip can be bent. The bent ends of the plastic strip can preferably be closed by a Velcro ^¬ the. This creates a stable connection between the components to be fastened together. This concept is in principle already known for use, in particular in the military sector, and therefore not shown in detail in the exemplary embodiment. Only the loop system is shown in principle, for example in FIG. 14 on the outside of the housing 5, in FIG. 1 on the outside of the carrying device 4, the fastening belt 8 and the hip belt 3.

Among other things, this can be sprung footsteps. It sees itself without saying that the embodiment shown in FIG. 8 from ^¬ design represents only one of many possible spring means 19. The Federeinrich ^¬ device 19 shown in Fig. 8 or another may alternatively or additionally also be formed at the end of the connecting element 10 which is fixed to the back part 6. Furthermore, the spring device 19 shown in FIG. 8 or another Spring device can also be combined with the embodiments of Figures 5 to 7.

In Fig. 8, a pivot axis 21 is shown in principle. The pivot axis 21 is perpendicular to the surface of the

The back portion 6. In the embodiments shown in Figures 5 to 8 is provided, that the connecting element 10 is designed to be elastic or spring and / or ge ^¬ springs on the waist belt 3 or is disposed the back part 6, that the connecting element 10 is a pivotal movement re ^¬ lativ between the back part 6 and the hip belt 3 around the perpendicular to the back part 6 extending pivot axis 21 allows. Fig. 7 shows an embodiment of the connecting element 10 with damping recesses 20 through which it is possible that the connecting element 10 at a pressure load of the protective jacket 2 in the direction of the waist belt 3 (or vice ^¬ versa) reduces its axial length, ie pushed together ben will. The damping recesses 20 preferably extend substantially horizontally in the connection ^¬ element 10. Preferably, a plurality of damping recesses 20 are spatially adjacent vertically stacked. Alternatively or additionally, the connecting ^element 10 may have ei ^¬ nen or more, preferably vertically superposed ^¬ arranged elastic or sprung areas.

As is apparent from the figures 1 to 10, in particular, Figures 5 to 8, the embodiment in dargestell ^¬ te connecting element 10 has a substantially flat, plate- tenförmige structure, wherein the two main surfaces 10a of the plate-shaped structure extend substantially plane-parallel to the back of the back part 6 of the protective vest 2 he ^¬ and wherein the two laterally and vertically duri fenden side edges 10b of the connecting element 10 each have a mirror image arranged, sawtooth-like profile section exhibit. The saw-tooth profile section bil ^¬ det thereby projections 22 and grooves 23 of. The grooves 23 and the projections 22 of the side edges 10b are preferably each mirror images of each other, as shown in the figures.

The formation of the side edges 10b with a sägezahnarti- gene profile section has in particular been found to connect the connecting member 10 to the back portion 6 to be particularly suitable ^¬ ge. This will be shown in more detail below with reference to FIG. 10.

Figures 5 and 6 show an optional embodiment, in which between two mirror-symmetrically arranged grooves 23 of the profile sections, a portion 24 is formed elastically or sprung. Of course, a plurality of elastic or sprung sections may be formed. The cuts can z. B. be formed of rubber or rubber.
