- the invention proposes an equipment for protecting a region of the human body adapted to be fixed to the region of the human body, said equipment comprising a one-piece reinforcement intended to be positioned against the region of the human body, and a first shell and a second shell of which the respective shapes are adapted to at least partially cover the reinforcement when positioned on the region of the human body, characterized in that the first and second shells are each attached to the reinforcement independently of one another and so as to overlap at least partially and there is provided means for removably attaching the equipment to the region of the human body, for example one or more straps resulting (s) of the reinforcement and / or hulls.
- a protective equipment 1 of a portion of an upper limb here, the part of the upper limb of the wearer that includes the shoulder and the arm, without elbow or forearm
- the protective equipment 1 can be configured to protect another part of the member as well.
- superior the forearm and / or the elbow and / or the wrist and the hand
- all or part of a lower limb typically a leg (including the tibia, knee and possibly the malleolus), without however, to depart from the field of the invention.
- the rest position of the equipment 1 corresponds to the position taken by the equipment 1 when it is worn by a carrier who is standing, at rest, with his legs straight, his torso straight and the arm along the body.
- the first shell 3 forms a protection of an upper part of the shoulder of a carrier.
- the second shell 4 as for it forms a protection of a part of the arm.
- the first and second shells 3, 4 are both curved in shape, that is, their shape is curved so as to effectively cover the area of the body facing each other.
- the two shells 3, 4 are substantially identical and have a shape having contour to generally convex outer face being bent along two orthogonal profiles.
- the second shell 4 of the equipment of protection 1 can in particular one of the shells of the equipment 1, for example the second 4, may have a curved shape but whose contour has a generally convex outer face being bent only in a profile.
- this shell may have the shape of a gutter or a portion of a tube.
- the invention however applies mutatis mutandis to such protective equipment 1.
- the reinforcement 2 may comprise in particular a coated textile material (natural or artificial), leather, polyamide, a foam and / or a foam structure, etc. and its function is to help cushion the shock received by the hulls 3, 4 and to improve the comfort and effectiveness of the wearing of the protective equipment 1.
- the shells 3, 4 in turn can be made by molding a plastic material such as polycarbonate or polyamide, for example of a uniform thickness of the order of 2 mm.
- the protective equipment 1 further comprises a retaining member 6 fixed on the one hand to the second shell 4, away from the localized zones 5, and on the other hand on the first shell 3 and / or on the reinforcement 2.
- This retaining member 6 is configured to prevent the second shell 4 from passing over the first shell 3.
- At least the first shell 3 is articulated at its localized zones 5.
- the second shell 4 also has a contour with a generally convex outer surface
- the second shell 4 can also be articulated at its localized zones 5. In this way, the shells 3, 4 are likely to move relative to each other, allowing the wearer to move freely while being protected at all times.
- Each shell 3, 4 has an upper edge 3a, 4a a lower edge 3, 4b and two lateral edges 3c, 4c so that the zones located 5 of each shell 3 are adjacent to the side edges 3c and the lower edge of the first shell 3 covers the upper edge 4a of the second shell 4.
- first shell 3 and the second shell 4 may comprise a median region 3d, 4d which is raised relative to a peripheral region.
- peripheral region here will be understood the shell region 3, 4 which is adjacent to its edges 3a-3c, 4a-4c, the median region 3dn 4d then extending within this peripheral region.
- the raised median regions then comprise a longitudinal element that can have a contour of generally rectangular shape with rounded corners.
- the elevation of this longitudinal element may further be substantially constant over its entire extent.
- the longitudinal element may be bordered laterally, on each side, by several raised appendages, which have a transition without a break in slope on the one hand with the longitudinal element and on the other hand with the peripheral region of the shell 3, 4 .
- This central region 3d, 4d elevated has the function of deflecting the blows and thus limit the risk of penetration of a piercing or cutting object, as well as reducing the shock to be absorbed by the protective equipment 1. Indeed, when the outer face of the shell 3, 4 is flat, shock absorption is less effective insofar as the protective equipment 1 provides a stable surface shot.
- the retaining member 6 is fixed in a portion of the second shell 4 which extends under the first shell 3 when the protective equipment 1 is at rest. When the protective equipment 1 is at rest, this portion of the second shell 4 is not visible to a third party.
- the retaining member 6 may in particular be fixed in the portion of the second shell 4 which is located between the localized zones 5 and the upper edge 3a of the second shell 4. In one embodiment, the retaining member 6 may more particularly be fixed near the upper edge 3a of the second shell 4.
- the retaining member 6 is preferably fixed on the peripheral region of the shells 3, 4 so as not to form irregularities in the said raised zones which may block the contending strokes.
- the shells 3, 4 may be slightly more fragile in their raised region 3d, 4d: the attachment of the retaining member 6 in the peripheral region of the shells 3, 4 and to avoid unnecessarily weakening the hulls 3, 4.
- the retaining member 6 may for example be fixed to the first shell 3.
- the retaining member 6 may in particular be fixed in a portion of the first shell 3 which extends between its upper edge 3a and its localized areas 5.
- the retaining member 6 can be fixed on the reinforcement 2.
- the retaining member 6 can in particular be fixed in a zone of the reinforcement 2 that extends opposite the portion of the first shell 3 which extends between its upper edge 3a and its localized zones 5.
- the retaining member 6 is attached to both the portion of the first shell 3 and the zone of the reinforcement 2 described above. This double fastening makes it possible to stabilize the shells 3, 4 on the reinforcement 2.
- the retainer 6 comprises a flexible and non-extensible link.
- the link does not extend more than 10% when it undergoes traction forces resulting from the usual movements of a carrier.
- the non-stretchable link may include a strap, wire rope or string, canvas, a flexible plastic member, etc.
- the retaining member 6 has a length substantially equal to the length, when the protective equipment is at rest, between the portion of the second shell 4 and the zone of the first shell 3 and / or the reinforcement 2 on which it is fixed.
- the retaining member 6 may in particular be riveted 7 on the second shell 4 and / or on the first shell 3 and / or on the reinforcement 2. Alternatively, the retaining member 6 may be sewn onto the shells 3, 4 and / or the reinforcement 2.
- the retaining member 6 can be fixed on the outer surface of the second shell 4 (that is to say the surface of the second shell 4 which is opposite the reinforcement 2 and which is partially covered by the first shell 3) and on the lower surface of the first shell 3 (that is to say the surface of the first shell 3 which is opposite the reinforcement 2 and is not visible by the carrier).
- the retaining member 6 comprises a strap riveted on the one hand on the second shell 4 and on the other hand on the reinforcement 2 and on the part opposite the first shell 3.
- the strap 6 can thus bend and allow the wearer to lift the arm freely while preventing the second shell 4 to pass over the first shell 3 when the wearer for example drops the arm or pulls it towards its opposite shoulder, the strap being unstretchable.
- the strap 6 here has a length substantially equal (within 10%) to the length between the rivet 7 by which it is fixed on the second shell 4 and the rivet 7 by which it is fixed on the reinforcement 2 and on the first hull 3, when the protective equipment 1 is at rest, that is to say when the wearer has the arm along the body.
- the equipment 1 comprises a non-stretchable strap 6 fixed on the one hand to the second shell 4, in a central zone of the upper edge 4a extending equidistantly between the localized zones 5, and on the other hand on the first shell 3, at its upper edge 3a and equidistant from its localized zones 5.
- the strap is also fixed on the zone of the reinforcement 2 which extends opposite the fixing of the retaining member 6 on the first hull 3, although this is optional.
- the equipment comprises two non-extensible straps 6 fixed on the second shell 4 and on the first shell 3 and the reinforcement 2.
- the straps are here fixed near the upper edge 4a of the second shell 4 and symmetrically to avoid destabilizing the protective equipment 1, which could hinder the movements of the wearer.
- one of the straps 6 is for example fixed halfway between the top of the upper edge 4a and one of the localized areas 5 while the other straps 6 is fixed midway between this vertex and the other of the localized areas 5.
- the straps 6 are further fixed on the first shell 3 and the area facing the reinforcement 2, also symmetrically.
- one of the straps 6 is for example fixed halfway between the top of the upper edge 3a and one of the localized areas 5 of the first shell 3 while the other of the straps 6 is fixed at half path between this summit and the other of the localized zones 5.
- the straps can be fixed so as to extend substantially parallel ( figure 2a ) or crossing each other ( figure 2b ).
- the protective equipment 1 may comprise a larger number of shells 3, 4 which overlap.
- each of the shells 3, 4 may have a portion which is connected to the adjacent shell 3 which covers it at least partially through at least one retaining member 6.
- the three shells are curved, that is to say that their shape is curved so as to effectively cover the area of the body opposite.
- the first shell 3 and the second shell 4 are substantially identical and have a contoured shape with a generally convex outer face being bent along two orthogonal profiles.
- the third shell 9 has a curved shape and elongated gutter type.
- the first and second shells 3, 4 are articulated on the reinforcement 2 at two localized zones 5.
- the first and the second shell 3, 4 can be fixed using a rivet 7, although any other fixing allowing articulation of the equipment is possible.
- the leg 1 also comprises a retaining member 6 fixed on the one hand to the second shell 4, away from the zones located 5, and secondly on the first shell 3 and / or on the reinforcement 2, said retaining member 6 being configured to prevent the second shell 4 to pass over the first shell 3.

Description
L'invention concerne de manière générale les équipements de protection du corps humain, notamment pour des forces de l'ordre, destinés à protéger leur porteur contre les coups et les chocs.The invention generally relates to protective equipment for the human body, in particular for law enforcement agencies, intended to protect their wearer against knocks and shocks.
Un équipement de protection destiné à être utilisé par les forces de l'ordre comprend de façon classique un certain nombre d'aménagements tels que des rembourrages ou autres destinés à protéger son porteur contre les coups et les chocs.Protective equipment for use by law enforcement agencies includes a number of conventional arrangements such as padding or other to protect his wearer against knocks and shocks.
Ainsi, on connaît par exemple un équipement de protection consistant en une jambière destinée à être rapportée sur un pantalon à l'aide de sangles. Cette jambière comprend une coque rigide en une matière plastique telle que du polyamide, de forme galbée et adaptée pour recouvrir la région du corps correspondante, à savoir la région du tibia.Thus, for example, there is known a protective equipment consisting of a leg to be reported on pants with straps. This leg includes a rigid shell of a plastic material such as polyamide, curved and adapted to cover the region of the corresponding body, namely the tibia region.
Afin de protéger encore plus efficacement le porteur de cette jambière contre des jets d'objets durs ou contre des coups portés avec des objets contondants (jets de pierres ou d'objets métalliques, coups de battes de base-ball, etc.), on a proposé de fixer cette coque à haute résistance sur un renfort en toile ou en cuir de forte épaisseur.In order to protect even more effectively the wearer of this leggings against jets of hard objects or against blows carried with blunt objects (throwing of stones or metallic objects, shots of baseball bats, etc.), one proposed to fix this high-strength hull on a heavy canvas or leather reinforcement.
On connaît par ailleurs du document
Un tel équipement de protection a déjà fait ses preuves et a été adopté par une grande partie des forces de l'ordre, dans le monde entier.Such protective equipment has already proved its worth and has been adopted by a large number of law enforcement agencies around the world.

reinforcement 2 intended to be positioned against the shoulder and the arm of the wearer, and - a
first shell 3 and asecond shell 4 whose shape is adapted to cover all or part of the shoulder and / or arm, thefirst shell 3 and thesecond shell 4 being fixed on thereinforcement 2 at two localizedareas 5 so as to overlap at least partially.
Ici, la première coque 3 forme une protection d'une partie supérieure de l'épaule d'un porteur. La deuxième coque 4 quant à elle forme une protection d'une partie du bras. La première et la deuxième coque 3, 4 sont toutes les deux de forme galbée, c'est-à -dire que leur forme est incurvée de manière à couvrir efficacement la région du corps en regard. S'agissant ici de recouvrir l'épaule et une partie du bras, les deux coques 3, 4 sont sensiblement identiques et présentent une forme ayant contour à face extérieure généralement convexe en étant cintrée selon deux profils orthogonaux. On pourra notamment se référer au document
On notera que, dans le cas où l'équipement de protection 1 est configuré pour protéger un avant-bras (manchette) ou un membre inférieur (jambière ou protège cuisse), la deuxième coque 4 de l'équipement de protection 1 peut notamment l'une des coques de l'équipement 1, par exemple la deuxième 4, peut présenter une forme galbée mais dont le contour présente une face extérieure généralement convexe en n'étant cintré que selon un profil. Typiquement, cette coque peut présenter la forme d'une gouttière ou d'une portion de tube. L'invention s'applique cependant mutatis mutandis à un tel équipement de protection 1.Note that, in the case where the
Le renfort 2 peut comprendre notamment une matière textile enduite (naturelle ou artificielle), du cuir, du polyamide, une mousse et/ou une structure de mousses, etc. et a pour fonction d'aider à l'amortissement des chocs reçus par les coques 3, 4 et d'améliorer le confort et l'efficacité du port de l'équipement de protection 1.The
Les coques 3, 4 quant à elles peuvent être réalisées par moulage d'un matériau plastique tel que du polycarbonate ou du polyamide, par exemple d'une épaisseur uniforme de l'ordre de 2 mm.The
Afin d'éviter que la deuxième coque 4 ne gêne accidentellement les mouvements du porteur, l'équipement de protection 1 comprend en outre un organe de retenue 6 fixé d'une part sur la deuxième coque 4, à distance des zones localisées 5, et d'autre part sur la première coque 3 et/ou sur le renfort 2.In order to prevent the
Cet organe de retenue 6 est configuré pour empêcher la deuxième coque 4 de passer par-dessus la première coque 3.This retaining
Au moins la première coque 3 est articulée au niveau de ses zones localisées 5. Dans le cas où la deuxième coque 4 présente également un contour à face extérieure généralement convexe, la deuxième coque 4 peut également être articulée au niveau de ses zones localisées 5. De la sorte, les coques 3, 4 sont susceptibles de bouger l'une par rapport à l'autre, permettant ainsi au porteur de bouger librement tout en étant protégé à tout moment.At least the
Chaque coque 3, 4 présente un bord supérieur 3a, 4a un bord inférieur 3, 4b et deux bords latéraux 3c, 4c de sorte que les zones localisées 5 de chaque coque 3 sont adjacentes aux bords latéraux 3c et le bord inférieur de la première coque 3 recouvre le bord supérieur 4a de la deuxième coque 4.Each
Optionnellement, la première coque 3 et la deuxième coque 4 peuvent comporter une région médiane 3d, 4d qui est surélevée par rapport à une région périphérique. Par région périphérique, on comprendra ici la région des coques 3, 4 qui est adjacente à ses bords 3a-3c, 4a-4c, la région médiane 3dn 4d s'étendant alors au sein de cette région périphérique.Optionally, the
Ici, les régions médianes surélevées comprennent alors un élément longitudinal pouvant présenter un contour de forme généralement rectangulaire à coins arrondis. La surélévation de cet élément longitudinal peut en outre être sensiblement constante sur toute son étendue.Here, the raised median regions then comprise a longitudinal element that can have a contour of generally rectangular shape with rounded corners. The elevation of this longitudinal element may further be substantially constant over its entire extent.
L'élément longitudinal peut être bordé latéralement, de chaque côté, par plusieurs appendices surélevés, qui présentent une transition sans rupture de pente d'une part avec l'élément longitudinal et d'autre part avec la région périphérique de la coque 3, 4.The longitudinal element may be bordered laterally, on each side, by several raised appendages, which have a transition without a break in slope on the one hand with the longitudinal element and on the other hand with the peripheral region of the
Cette région médiane 3d, 4d surélevée a pour fonction de dévier les coups et de limiter ainsi les risques de pénétration d'un objet perçant ou coupant, ainsi que de réduire le choc à absorber par l'équipement de protection 1. En effet, lorsque la face externe de la coque 3, 4 est plane, l'absorption des chocs est moins efficace dans la mesure où l'équipement de protection 1 offre une surface stable au coup.This
L'organe de retenue 6 est fixé dans une portion de la deuxième coque 4 qui s'étend sous la première coque 3 lorsque l'équipement de protection 1 est au repos. Lorsque l'équipement de protection 1 est au repos, cette portion de la deuxième coque 4 n'est donc pas visible par un tiers.The retaining
L'organe de retenue 6 peut notamment être fixé dans la portion de la deuxième coque 4 qui se trouve entre les zones localisées 5 et le bord supérieur 3a de la deuxième coque 4. Dans une forme de réalisation, l'organe de retenue 6 peut plus particulièrement être fixé à proximité du bord supérieur 3a de la deuxième coque 4.The retaining
Lorsque les coques 3, 4 comprennent une région médiane surélevée 3d, 4d, l'organe de retenue 6 est de préférence fixé sur la région périphérique des coques 3, 4 afin de ne pas former d'irrégularités dans lesdites zones surélevées susceptibles de bloquer les coups contendants. De plus, la Demanderesse s'est aperçue du fait que les coques 3, 4 pouvaient être légèrement plus fragiles dans leur région surélevée 3d, 4d : la fixation de l'organe de retenue 6 dans la région périphérique des coques 3, 4 permet ainsi d'éviter de fragiliser inutilement les coques 3, 4.When the
L'organe de retenue 6 peut par exemple être fixé à la première coque 3. Dans ce cas, l'organe de retenue 6 peut notamment être fixé dans une portion de la première coque 3 qui s'étend entre son bord supérieur 3a et ses zones localisées 5.The retaining
En variante, l'organe de retenue 6 peut être fixé sur le renfort 2. Dans ce cas, l'organe de retenue 6 peut notamment être fixé dans une zone du renfort 2 qui s'étend en regard de la portion de la première coque 3 qui s'étend entre son bord supérieur 3a et ses zones localisées 5.In a variant, the retaining
Selon une autre variante encore, l'organe de retenue 6 est fixé à la fois à la portion de la première coque 3 et à la zone du renfort 2 décrites ci-dessus. Cette double fixation permet en effet de stabiliser les coques 3, 4 sur le renfort 2.According to another variant, the retaining
Dans une forme de réalisation, l'organe de retenue 6 comprend un lien flexible et non-extensible. Par non extensible, on comprendra ici que le lien ne s'allonge pas de plus de 10% lorsqu'il subit des efforts de traction résultant des mouvements habituels d'un porteur. Typiquement, le lien non extensible peut comprendre une sangle, un câble métallique ou une ficelle, de la toile, un élément en plastique souple, etc..In one embodiment, the
Afin de ne pas empêcher les mouvements du porteur, l'organe de retenue 6 présente une longueur sensiblement égale à la longueur, lorsque l'équipement de protection est au repos, entre la portion de la deuxième coque 4 et la zone de la première coque 3 et/ou du renfort 2 sur lesquelles il est fixé.In order not to prevent the movements of the carrier, the retaining
L'organe de retenue 6 peut notamment être riveté 7 sur la deuxième coque 4 et/ou sur la première coque 3 et/ou sur le renfort 2. En variante, l'organe de retenue 6 peut être cousu sur les coques 3, 4 et/ou le renfort 2.The retaining
On notera que l'organe de retenue 6 peut être fixé sur la surface externe de la deuxième coque 4 (c'est-à -dire la surface de la deuxième coque 4 qui est opposée au renfort 2 et qui est recouverte partiellement par la première coque 3) et sur la surface inférieure de la première coque 3 (c'est-à -dire la surface de la première coque 3 qui est en regard du renfort 2 et n'est pas visible par le porteur).Note that the retaining
Ainsi, dans l'exemple de réalisation illustré sur les figures annexées, l'organe de retenue 6 comprend une sangle rivetée d'une part sur la deuxième coque 4 et d'autre part sur le renfort 2 et sur la partie en regard de la première coque 3. Lors des mouvements du porteur, la sangle 6 peut ainsi se plier et permettre au porteur de lever le bras librement tout en empêchant la deuxième coque 4 de passer par-dessus la première coque 3 lorsque le porteur baisse par exemple le bras ou le tend vers son épaule opposée, la sangle étant non extensible.Thus, in the exemplary embodiment illustrated in the appended figures, the retaining
La sangle 6 présente ici une longueur sensiblement égale (à 10% près) à la longueur entre le rivet 7 par lequel elle est fixée sur la deuxième coque 4 et le rivet 7 par lequel elle est fixée sur le renfort 2 et sur la première coque 3, lorsque l'équipement de protection 1 est au repos c'est-à -dire lorsque le porteur a le bras le long du corps.The
Dans l'exemple illustré sur la
Dans l'exemple illustré sur les
Les sangles sont ici fixées à proximité du bord supérieur 4a de la deuxième coque 4 et de manière symétrique afin d'éviter de déstabiliser l'équipement de protection 1, ce qui pourrait gêner les mouvements du porteur. Pour cela, l'une des sangles 6 est par exemple fixée à mi-chemin entre le sommet du bord supérieur 4a et l'une des zones localisées 5 tandis que l'autre des sangles 6 est fixée à mi-chemin entre ce sommet et l'autre des zones localisées 5.The straps are here fixed near the
Les sangles 6 sont en outre fixées sur la première coque 3 et sur la zone en regard du renfort 2, également de manière symétrique. Pour cela, l'une des sangles 6 est par exemple fixée à mi-chemin entre le sommet du bord supérieur 3a et l'une des zones localisées 5 de la première coque 3 tandis que l'autre des sangles 6 est fixée à mi-chemin entre ce sommet et l'autre des zones localisées 5.The
Les sangles peuvent être fixées de manière à s'étendre sensiblement parallèlement (
Bien entendu, l'équipement de protection 1 peut comprendre un plus grand nombre de coques 3, 4 qui se superposent. Dans ce cas, chacune des coques 3, 4 peut présenter une portion qui est reliée à la coque 3 adjacente qui la recouvre au moins partiellement par l'intermédiaire d'au moins un organe de retenue 6.Of course, the
Dans le cas d'un équipement de protection 1 comprenant une jambière, ladite jambière peut comprendre trois coques 3, 4, 9 :
- une première coque 3, correspondant à la coque la plus proche de la cuisse lorsque l'équipement est porté par un porteur, qui protège une partie supérieure du genou,
- une deuxième coque 4, centrale, qui protège également le genou et sa rotule, et
- une troisième coque 9, qui protège le tibia.
- a
first shell 3, corresponding to the shell closest to the thigh when the equipment is worn by a wearer, which protects an upper part of the knee, - a
second shell 4, central, which also protects the knee and its patella, and - a
third shell 9, which protects the shin.
Dans ce cas, les trois coques sont galbées, c'est-à -dire que leur forme est incurvée de manière à couvrir efficacement la région du corps en regard. S'agissant ici de recouvrir le genou, la première coque 3 et la deuxième coque 4 sont sensiblement identiques et présentent une forme ayant contour à face extérieure généralement convexe en étant cintrée selon deux profils orthogonaux. On pourra notamment se référer au document
S'agissant de couvrir le tibia, la troisième coque 9 présente une forme galbée et allongée du type gouttière.As regards covering the tibia, the
La première et la deuxième coque 3, 4 sont articulées sur le renfort 2 au niveau de deux zones localisées 5. Typiquement, comme indiqué dans
Dans les modes de réalisation décrits aux figures, il est prévu une sangle 10 pour assurer la fixation du renfort à la zone du corps à protéger. On pourrait prévoir une ou plusieurs sangles supplémentaires sans sortir du cadre de la présente invention. Le renfort est agencé de manière à venir entourer la partie du membre à protéger, notamment par dessus un vêtement ou directement sur la peau de la partie du membre à protéger, le renfort étant fixé de manière amovible, notamment le renfort entourant le membre sur un distance périphérique inférieure à 360°, notamment entre 180° et 270°, pour assurer une certaine mobilité et adaptabilité de l'équipement au mouvement du membre à protéger.In the embodiments described in the figures, there is provided a
D'autre part, on pourrait, à la place ou en plus de fixer le renfort au membre à protéger, fixer, par exemple avec une ou des sangles, les coques au membre à protéger.On the other hand, one could, instead of or in addition to fixing the reinforcement to the member to protect, fix, for example with one or straps, the shells to the member to protect.
Dans la présente invention, on entend par renfort d'une seule pièce un renfort qui est soit réalisé à partir d'un seul élément en forme de plaque souple qui s'applique contre le membre à protéger, soit réalisé à partir d'une pluralité d'éléments en forme de plaques souples qui sont reliés ou fixés les uns aux autres directement, c'est à dire notamment indépendamment d'une ou des coques. En particulier, si les coques qui sont fixées au renfort en sont détachées, les éléments en forme de plaques formant le renfort restent reliés entre eux pour former le renfort dit d'une seule pièce.In the present invention, reinforcement in one piece is a reinforcement which is either made from a single element in the form of a flexible plate which is applied against the member to be protected or is made from a plurality elements in the form of flexible plates which are connected or fixed to each other directly, ie in particular independently of one or hulls. In particular, if the shells which are attached to the reinforcement are detached, the plate-shaped elements forming the reinforcement remain connected together to form the reinforcement said in one piece.
