Definitions

  • the present invention relates to an impact protection arrangement for shielding obstacles in the field of sports downhill.
  • Such obstacles may be posts, masts, especially lift masts, pipes, beams, trees or even boulders forming artificial or natural obstacles.
  • the present invention relates to impact protection for shielding obstacles in the field of sports downhill.
  • Such obstacles may be posts, masts, especially lift masts, pipes, beams, trees or even boulders forming artificial or natural obstacles.
  • sports runs is intended to denote all traffic areas or paths which are used in connection with skiing, tobogganing or cycling and are available in particular for trips in which high speeds can be achieved.
  • Such obstacles are usually provided with compact upholstery cuffs that shield at least sharp edges or hard surfaces of the obstacles. They reduce the risk of injury to the extent that persons who encounter such a cushioning cuff at low speed usually remain uninjured. In a high-speed frontal impact, however, such padding is largely ineffective because it can absorb only a very small fraction of the impact energy.
  • the known and customary measures for impact protection, such as straw bales, padded mats or padded sleeves are therefore inadequate in many cases.
  • a protective net which is arranged like a tent around a lift mast.
  • the tent or net structure can be made elastic, so that around the obstacle around a wide flexible collecting area is formed, the person elastically traps or keeps away from the obstacle.
  • Such impact protection consists essentially of a vertical obstacle enclosing and self-attached unit, a padded, partially elastic network as the actual protection system, and tensioning device at the bottom to tension the network between the mast and the surrounding part of the traffic area (descent) ,
  • networks are complex to build up the risk that a person entangled in it.
  • Other cuffs for street posts for pure shock absorption are in the WO 2005/075745 A1 described.
  • the object of the present invention is to provide an improved impact protection.
  • the present invention relates to an impact protection arrangement for persons for shielding obstacles such as mast, snow gun lance, tree, etc. in the field of sports downhill skiing, in particular skis, toboggans, bicycles, comprising: a guard unit at least partially surrounding and extending along a longitudinal axis of the obstacle which is rotatably fixable to the obstacle, the guard unit having an inner mounting portion and a baffle surrounding the inner mounting portion which is radially spaced from the mounting portion by a support assembly compliantly connected.
  • the support arrangement comprises a plurality of flexible deformable support elements, which are arranged and configured such that the impact collar is twisted in an impact around the attachment area such that an impacting person is displaced from an end area into a flank area of the impact protection arrangement
  • the impact protection arrangement according to the invention is characterized in that it is (at least partially) rotatably fixable on an obstacle and comprises an inner attachment region, which is surrounded by a baffle collar, which is resiliently connected via a support arrangement at a radial distance from the attachment region.
  • This construction allows a particularly effective impact protection, in which on the one hand a particularly high energy absorption can be realized and on the other hand, an additional deflection effect, in which the impact direction of an impinging person is effectively and gently deflected.
  • the protection unit can be fixed in a rotatable manner around the obstacle. Since most impact events are not exactly centrally on the obstacle, but more grazing, ie laterally offset, the impact direction is deflected further in these usual cases and the impacting person is gently passed the actual obstacle.
  • the support arrangement between the impact collar and the inner fastening region comprises flexible, deformable support elements designed in such a way that, in the event of an impact, the impact collar additionally twists about the fastening region and thus further enhances the deflection effect.
  • Such a deflection rotation is then composed of two components, namely on the one hand from the component, in which the protection unit in total to the
  • the obstacle twisted, and on the other to the component, in which the impact cuff in addition to or independently of the mounting area can rotate.
  • the support elements are formed from struts, slats, upholstery elements or even fluid pockets (for example air-filled baffle bags or pillows).
  • fluid pockets for example air-filled baffle bags or pillows.
  • an impact protection arrangement comprises a plurality of protective units which are separated from one another in the vertical direction and which can also be fixed to the obstacle independently of one another.
  • protective units which are arranged one above the other as column segments, with different properties. For example, in a lower area where the body of an impacting person normally strikes with his legs may be made somewhat harder and tighter than in a middle or upper area where the person pushes his torso or head.
  • the fastening region is rotatably connected to the obstacle via a fixing device (ver) which can be fixed to the obstacle
  • a fixing device which can be fixed to the obstacle
  • mounting and fixing of the impact protection arrangement can be simplified.
  • the protective unit can thus be determined in a vertically extending obstacle (for example, a lift mast or a snow lance), the height regardless of the ground.
  • the fastening device can define the rotatability of the fastening area by means of a corresponding bearing design.
  • the rotatability can be adapted to the specific hazards (such as expected impact direction, shape, position and orientation of the obstacle, slope, etc.).
  • a weather-resistant shell increases the durability of the protection unit.
  • the shell is roof-like at an upper end of the protection unit, prevents, for example, snow settles on the protection unit and may jeopardize their function.
  • this roof-like area can be fixed to the obstacle independently of the protection unit, so that the core functions of one or more protection units can be implemented independently of the roof function of the protective cover.
  • fastening device is arranged axially adjustable on the obstacle, so that an axial mounting position of the protection unit is adjustable.
  • FIG. 1 shows a schematic side view of an impact protection arrangement 1, which surrounds a vertical obstacle 2 like a column (eg the shaft of a snow lance).
  • the impact protection arrangement 1 is formed from one (or more) cylindrical protection unit 4, which surrounds the obstacle 2.
  • the protective unit is formed from an inner mounting region 5, which is arranged concentrically to the obstacle 2 or an axis 3.
  • the attachment region 5 is surrounded by a baffle 6 at a certain distance, which likewise runs concentrically around the obstacle 2 or the axis 3.
  • the inner fastening region 5 is rotatably connected to the obstacle 2 via one or more fastening devices 8.
  • the fastening devices 8 are axially adjustable (and fixable) attached to the obstacle 2 (screws, clamping collars, etc.).
  • the representation in FIG. 2 shows a support assembly 7, which fixes the baffle 6 at the desired distance to the inner mounting portion 5.
  • the support assembly 7 is here formed of a plurality of lamellar, star-shaped outgoing from the inner mounting portion 5 slats 7a, which are made of an elastically deformable material (eg. Flexible plastic plates, foam elements, air cushion or the like).
  • the protection unit 4 is surrounded by a weather-resistant casing 9, which can be formed, for example, from a flexible, smooth, tarpaulin material that may also be printable.
  • a weather-resistant casing 9 which can be formed, for example, from a flexible, smooth, tarpaulin material that may also be printable.
  • the protective cover 9 is formed like a roof. This roof area 10 can be fixed to a separate fastening device 8, independently of the protective unit 4 (or protective units 4).
  • FIG. 3 shows an embodiment of a protection unit 4, which surrounds the obstacle 2 only in a sector of about 240 °.
  • the lamellae 7a are supported in addition to the attachment to the inner mounting portion 5 and the impact sleeve 6 via additional fasteners 11 against each other.
  • This additional fasteners can be formed from pad wedges become; but it can also be provided coupling bands 11a, which connect the slats 7a together and thus influence their effect in an impact in the desired manner.
  • FIG. 4 Based on FIG. 4 the effect of the impact protection arrangement 1 can be seen.
  • a twisting component acts in the direction of arrow R on the affected protective unit 4 (in Fig. 4 shown), which initially leads to the inner fastening region 5 of the in FIG. 3 shown location in the in FIG. 4
  • the deformation of the slats 7a ensures that the impacting body (marked by an X) deforms the baffle 6, thereby deforming the slats 7a, so that a part of the Impact energy is absorbed by the slats or by the impact cuff.
  • the deformation of the lamellae 7a which curve in a spiral shape, leads to a further twisting or deflection effect r.
  • the impact of the body X is effectively damped (energy is absorbed by deformation of the baffle 6 and the support assembly 7), and the body X is elastically slid from the impact field laterally around the obstacle 2. The impact energy is reduced and the body X is gently deflected.
  • FIGS. 5a and 5b They are formed from differently shaped profiled rails 8a and 8b, in which corresponding sliding heads 18a and 18b are guided, which are formed according to the rail profile.
  • the sliding heads are fixed either fixedly or rotatably on a corresponding fastening element 19, which is connected to the inner fastening region 5 (glued, sewn, riveted, etc.).
  • the rails 8a, 8b are formed according to the peripheral contour of the obstacle 2 and fixed thereto.
  • the axial position of the rails 8a, 8b is adjustable on the obstacle.
  • the sliding heads are threaded into the profile rails 8a, 8b and then fix the entire protection unit in a desired axial position (height) on the obstacle 2. However, they remain rotatable about the axis 3 and thus around the obstacle 2 around.
  • the VerFEweg can optionally be limited by inserted into the rails 8a, 8b attacks.
  • FIGS. 6a and 6b show in cross-section a cushioning material 20, which is particularly suitable for the baffle 6. It is formed from an inner and an outer cushion layer 21, 22, which are connected to each other via flexible tubular element 23.
  • the outer padding layer 22 is made slightly thicker and has additional support or padding ribs 22 a, which are connected to the tubular elements.
  • FIG. 6a the cushioning material is shown in a flat starting position and in FIG. 6b in a curved position, in which this example. Can serve as a cylinder jacket-shaped support sleeve. The radius of curvature is determined by the distance and the diameter of the tubular elements 23.
  • the outer padding layer 22 initially serves as a classic padding element, while the tubular elements 23 form a firm but elastic and deformable impact contour.
  • a cushioning material 20 has particularly favorable plastic, elastic properties and is easily deformable in order to form a suitable impact collar 6.
  • FIG. 6c shows in cross-section a cushioning material 20, which is also suitable for the baffle 6.
  • an inner and an outer cushion layer 21, 22 is provided, between which flexible pipe elements 23 are arranged.
  • the inner cushioning layer 21 is provided with outer ribs 21a which increase the flexibility of the cushioning material 20 so that it can be adapted to the curvature of an obstacle 2 and wound around it without great effort.
  • the notches 21b between the outer ribs 21a are formed corresponding to the desired curvature.
  • FIG. 7 shows an alternative embodiment of a protection unit 4, which also partially surrounds an obstacle 2.
  • the inner mounting portion 5 is surrounded by an outer baffle 6 - either as in FIG. 7 represented partially or completely.
