Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a floating garment.
  • the invention concerns garments manufactured by a floating multilayer textile, able supporting and upturning the body in such a way that face is faced upward, as provided by exiting rules.
  • the present invention can be particularly applied to either to work garments for water environments (industrial fishing, sport fishing, water activities, first aid, ecc.), and to other activities carried out in said environments.
  • floating elements either jacket, ring buoy or like. Said elements permit floating in case of fall into the water, preventing drowning risks. Particularly, in case of work activities, it is compulsory wearing on said elements, permitting upturning the body so as the face is faced upward. Said floating elements must fulfill ISO 12402 standards.
  • said floating elements are rather bulky and heavy, making it more difficult carrying out the activities. Just due to the bulkiness and weight of said elements, many people decide not to wear on them to move more freely. This clearly involves serious risks in case of falling into the water. Further, being it difficult foreseeing accidental events, it is difficult wearing them at proper time.
  • Further object of the invention is that of obtaining floating garments able upturning the body in case of fall into the water, so as to have the face faced upward.
  • Another object of the present invention is that of preventing necessity of wearing secondary safety elements, which are easily forgotten.
  • the floating garment is made up of floating multilayer textile, said garment comprising a central portion to support the trunk, a top portion to support the neck, said multilayer textile comprising at least one outer sheet, at least one intermediate sheet and at least one inner sheet, said garment being characterized in that said at least one intermediate sheet of said floating multilayer textile consists of a multilayer membrane, in particular made ip of closed-cell polyethylene, wherein at least 50% of said membrane is made up of air, in that said textile is provided with between 3g to 5g of said intermediate sheet for each 1 kg of weight to support in water, and in that the membrane material provided for the intermediate sheet at said central portion of said garment, is distributed so that between 60% and 80% is arranged in the front side of said central portion and between 40% and 20% is arranged in the rear side of said central portion.
  • said at least one intermediate sheet of said floating multilayer textile consists of a multilayer membrane, in particular made ip of closed-cell polyethylene, wherein at least 50% of said membrane is made up of air, in that said textile is provided with
  • said membrane material provided for said intermediate sheet at said central portion of said garment can be distributed so that the 70% is arranged in said front part of said central portion and the 30% is arranged in said rear part of said central portion. moreover, said membrane material provided for said intermediate sheet can be equally distributed at said top portion of said garment.
  • said garment can further comprise a lower portion to support the legs and the membrane material provided for said intermediate sheet can be equally distributed at said lower portion of said garment.
  • each layer of said membrane of said intermediate sheet of said textile can have a thickness of at least 0.6 mm.
  • said membrane can be made up of closed-cell polyethylene, or of a material having equivalent characteristics.
  • At least 50% of said membrane of said intermediate sheet of said textile can be made of air, and preferably over 97% of said membrane can be made of air.
  • said membrane of said intermediate sheet of said textile can have buoyancy features equivalent to 63N, preferably it can have thermal insulation features equivalent to 0.04 W/m-k and even more preferably 1 m 2 of said membrane can have a weight of 16 g.
  • said outer sheet and/or said inner sheet of said textile can be made up of hydro-breathable or refractive material, or flame retardant material, or windproof material, or waterproof material.
  • said inner sheet of said textile can be made up of lining.
  • a membrane thick 0.6 mm is available on the market, comprised of closed cell polyethylene comprising more than 97% of air. Thanks to its cellular structure composition, said membrane has optimum floating (63N), thermal insulation (0.04 W/m-K) and lightness (16 g/m 2 ) features.
  • Present invention suggests realization of a floating multilayer textile 1 using said membrane as an intermediate sheet 3, placing the membrane between an outer sheet 2 and an inner sheet 4, comprised of different materials.
  • a first embodiment is shown in figure 1 , wherein outer sheet 2 material is a hydro-breathable material, and inner sheet 4 is comprised of lining.
  • type of selected material for outer sheet 2 and inner sheet 4 depends on final use of the floating multilayer textile 1. They can be refractive materials, or flame retardant materials, or windproof materials, or waterproof materials, ecc..
  • Said floating multilayer textile 1 has advantageous floating features, and thus it can be used for manufacturing garments, to be preferably close to water environments.
  • membrane can give floating function placing 3g for every 1 kg to be supported along the garment 6. In case 4g of membrane for each kg are provided, good safety condition can be obtained.
  • Said distribution of membrane as intermediate sheet 3 along the garment 6 permits upturning the body in case of fall within the water (regardless it is salty or fresh water), so as to have the face faced toward the sky and supporting the body with an inclination of about 45°.
