Definitions

  • the invention relates to a protective garment, in particular a protective jacket, comprising a main body of a wearer wearing the protective garment wearing open in the chest and abdominal region of the wearer and closable main body and two branches on opposite sides in the shoulder region of the wearer from the main body branches and a monitoring system with respect to the current environmental conditions for the carrier, wherein the monitoring system at least one sensor element for detecting an environmental parameter and / or at least one display element for optical and / or acoustic display of a state and one with the at least one sensor element and / or with the at least one display element connected cable assembly for connection to a control unit, wherein the cable assembly extends at least in the main part of the protective clothing piece and at least partially between two textile layers of the protective clothing tücks is arranged.
  • Protective garments of this type are known in numerous embodiments from the prior art. Particularly in the field of emergency clothing for rescue workers - and here primarily for firefighters or in civil protection - monitoring systems are used in the protective clothing pieces. Typically, the garments are multi-layered. The different textile layers of the protective garment fulfill different purposes. Frequently, a three-layer construction with an outer outer fabric, an inner lining and an interposed wet barrier is used: Thus, the moisture barrier protects the protective garment wearing carrier from the influence of water, such as rain or other splashing water, and so before Moisture and in particular the unwanted weight gain of clothing by externally absorbed water.
  • the wet barrier is typically designed to be breathable, so that this water vapor from an inner side of the protective garment toward the outside passes easily. This guarantees a high wearing comfort.
  • the other layers are also used for thermal insulation, so that the wearer of the protective garment itself increased in the area Outside temperatures, especially in the vicinity of external heat sources such as fire and the like, is protected from extreme influences.
  • a conduit element such as a cable
  • an energy store battery
  • the control unit and the battery are on the inside of the garment.
  • Both the bulbs, the sensor elements and the display elements are firmly connected to the outer fabric in the known protective clothing, for example sewn or glued so that they can not move. A shift would possibly lead to tensile forces on the cable assembly and thus to unpredictable damage to the monitoring system, whereby the latter would no longer be functional.
  • the display element and / or the sensor element must not slip, as this leads to the fact that the display element would no longer be visible or the sensor element would measure incorrect environmental parameters. In order to protect the rescue forces during an operation, an intact surveillance system is essential.
  • the monitoring system detects physical and / or chemical properties or parameters of the environment or physiological parameters, for example the pulse rate of the wearer wearing the garment, the ambient temperature, any radioactivity present and / or the oxygen concentration, and shows the emergency forces themselves or a deployment ladder by means of the display elements or via a wireless data transmission, whether they need to cancel the use or continue to continue.
  • the outer fabric By removing the electronic parts, such as the cable assembly, the sensor elements and the display elements, from the protective garment, the outer fabric would be damaged. As a result, the electronic parts together with the protective garment are washed together. Although the electronic parts typically withstand some washing before they no longer function properly. After the failure of the electronic parts, however, these must be disposed of together with the protective clothing, although the latter is usually still in good condition. A new purchase of the protective garment is, however, by the firm connection of the electronic parts with the protective garment inevitable. As a result, high costs are incurred by the failure and replacement of protective clothing, which would still be functional and usable.
  • the present invention is now based on the object to provide a protective garment, which ensures proper functioning of the cable assembly, the sensor elements and the display elements, while still avoiding that the entire protective garment after eventual wear or failure of the cable assembly, the sensor elements and / or the display elements must be replaced.
  • the underlying object is achieved in that the cable assembly is removable together with the at least one sensor element and / or with the at least one display element of the protective garment.
  • the aforementioned component can be easily and economically replaced in the event of a defect and the garment thus continue to be used. It is both possible to leave said components in the garment during the wash, or to remove them from the garment for the purpose of protecting and extending the life before each wash.
  • the cable assembly, the at least one sensor element and the at least one display element and the control unit form part of the monitoring system.
  • a control device for determining and subsequent display of the state, for.
  • the condition is depending on environmental conditions in which the wearer of the garment is currently located, as well as on the physical condition of the wearer.
  • different environmental parameters such as the oxygen concentration, dangerous smoke concentrations and / or various body functions (for example the body temperature and the heartbeat) are detected.
  • the detected environmental parameters are passed to the control unit and implemented in such a way that the at least one display element can reproduce the environmental conditions and / or the condition of the wearer.
  • the display element consists of a kind of traffic light with a red, yellow and green diode, which light up depending on the state.
  • the green diode provision is made in particular for the green diode to light up if the values are within predefined limits and the use can be continued.
  • the red diode lights up when the application has to be stopped immediately. If the yellow diode lights up, it would be advantageous to interrupt the operation or to observe the further development of the values particularly carefully and critically.
  • the display can also be reproduced acoustically.
  • the sensor elements for measuring the body functions, for example, be attached to a T-shirt.
  • the signals can be forwarded to the display elements.
  • the cable arrangement, the at least one sensor element and / or the at least one display element can be removed and replaced from the protective clothing piece. It is also possible to remove the cable assembly, the sensor elements and the display elements before each wash cycle and later reinstall. It is of course more convenient to leave the cable assembly, the sensor elements and the display elements during the washing operations in the protective garment and replace only in case of a defect. Not only does this save time, it also prevents damage to the cable assembly, the sensor elements, and / or the display elements, such as by excessive pulling on the cable assembly, during permanent attachment or detachment.
  • the at least one sensor element and / or the at least one display element in an operating position in one Outer fabric of the protective clothing located breakthrough penetrate or penetrate from an inner surface of the outer fabric ago, wherein the cable assembly is hidden from the outside.
  • the garment is in the operative position when the cable assembly, indicators and sensor elements are mounted in the garment and function properly.
  • the protective garment is now ready for use and can be worn, for example, by rescue workers. As an example, here is a firefighters, which penetrates into a burning house called.
  • the cable arrangement preferably leads from the control unit, which is located on the inner side of the protective clothing piece facing the wearer, through an opening in the wet barrier, preferably through a tunnel attached thereto, the tunnel being intended to prevent the wet barrier from escaping, in particular from the outside Fluids can be penetrated.
  • further textile layers between the control unit and the outer material these each have a further opening for the passage of the cable arrangement.
  • a further textile layer is a lining material to call, which is located between the moisture barrier and the wearer.
  • the cable assembly is then guided between the moisture barrier and the outer fabric of the protective clothing piece, to the positions where the sensor elements and / or the display elements are located. Consequently, the cable assembly is not visible from the outside.
  • both the sensor elements and the display elements should be recognizable from the outside. To make this possible, there is a breakthrough in the outer fabric for each sensor element or display element.
  • Useful positions for the sensor elements and / or display elements are, for example, on the left and / or right forearm, the left and / or right upper arm and / or on the chest. Other positions may be implemented individually for themselves or for several in any combination in variants of the invention.
  • the at least one sensor element and / or the at least one display element is arranged on a respective carrier element, which is preferably detachably connectable to the latter from an inner surface of the outer material.
  • the inner surface of the outer fabric is the surface of the outer fabric facing the wearer. This inner surface is preferably accessible through an access between the moisture barrier and the outer fabric in a lower portion of the protective clothing and spacious.
  • the support element with the display element or the sensor element can be performed by hand up to the breakthrough in the outer fabric.
  • the carrier element is detachably connected to the inner surface of the outer fabric with this. The solubility is necessary for a simple replacement of the display elements and sensor elements in case of a defect of the monitoring system.
  • the carrier element can be covered by a cover element from the inner surface of the outer material.
  • a pocket is arranged on the inner surface of the outer material in which the carrier element can be introduced and fixed therein in an operating position.
  • the at least one sensor element and / or the at least one display element penetrate in the operating position a leading into the pocket, located in the outer material breakthrough to an outside of the protective garment out.
  • Both the cover member and the bag not only cover the aperture in the outer fabric, but also overlap the inner surface of the fabric at the edges of the aperture, typically by a few centimeters. This prevents fluid from passing through the aperture into the interior of the garment.
  • a cover or a pocket allows the best possible fixation of the sensor elements and the display elements, so that slipping is prevented and thus a good detection of environmental parameters and good visibility of the display elements is ensured. Incorrectly recorded environmental parameters or obscuring the display elements could have fatal consequences for the rescue workers.
  • the removal of the sensor elements and the display elements is possible only under conscious application of force from the inner surface of the outer fabric. Even an unwanted “descent" of the display and / or sensor elements under the outer fabric is prevented by the attachment.
  • the at least one sensor element itself and / or the at least one display element itself and / or the carrier element including arranged thereon at least one sensor element and / or the at least one display element a Velcro connection, by means of at least one push button or by means of at least one zipper with the protective garment, in particular the back of the outer fabric is connected.
