Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a body protection device for athletes, in particular shin guards.
  • shin guards typically comprise one or more rigid plastic shields, on the side of which facing the body, a damping material is arranged.
  • Flexible protectors are also known. These protectors are typically fixed to the shin with fastening straps based on the hook and loop tape principle (Velcro) or with the help of compression sockets.
  • Velcro hook and loop tape principle
  • these fastenings do not offer sufficient security against slipping during normal sporting use, so that many athletes use additional fastening structures such as adhesive tape or additional hook and loop tapes.
  • these measures are associated with additional effort and costs, in addition, the comfort and freedom of movement of the athlete are restricted. As a result, many athletes forego protection by protectors and instead accept the risk of injury.
  • the polymeric texture contains a multiplicity of projections which each extend from the outer surface by a maximum distance of approximately 1 mm to approximately 5 mm and each have a hardness of approximately 20 A to approximately 60 A measured on the Shore A scale.
  • the protrusions are conical or pyramid-shaped.
  • WO 2016/102824 A1 describes a textile forefoot protector in which silicone gel fastening strips prevent friction in a sock.
  • DE 1945360 A discloses a shin guard made of a hollow shield, which has a cushion made of rubber-elastic material on the back and is adaptable to the curvature of the leg of its wearer.
  • the hollow shield of the shin guard has longitudinally extending grooves spaced apart from one another, which makes the shin guard flexible in the longitudinal direction.
  • the present invention solves this problem by a body protector, characterized in that the surface of the body protection device facing away from the body or parts of this surface contains a large number of ordered or unordered projections of any hardness, the lateral or lateral surfaces of which are at least partially formed approximately at right angles to the surrounding surface and their size is adapted to penetrate the textile, in particular the spaces between the yarns or in their meshes, of clothing usually worn over the body protection device, in the case of the shin guard for soccer players, that is to say socks or compression sockets, and thus a form-fitting interlinking to allow the protrusions with the textile.
  • the form-fitting is achieved in that the yarn lies against the side surface of a projection which is arranged approximately at right angles to the surrounding surface and it is almost impossible to slide over the projection.
  • the surface according to the invention preferably contains projections of a comparatively small width or small diameter of 0.02 to 0.8 mm, particularly preferably 0.1 to 0.4 mm. This enables a larger number of projections on the same surface and accordingly a larger number of linkages of the components in comparison to conventional conical knobs.
  • the projections according to the invention are applied to a rigid shield which is adapted to the body shape and which preferably has a damping material on a side facing the body.
  • a flexible impact protection element with the projections according to the invention by anchoring them to the same, for example by gluing, molding, injection molding or press injection.
  • the projections can, in a preferred embodiment, be coated on the surface by a special coating, for example a PUR or acrylic lacquer, to which a large number of grains have been mixed or parts of the surface of the protector are applied.
  • the protrusions in the manufacture of the rigid shield are introduced directly by an injection molding process, for example in that the corresponding injection molds for the shield have complementary depressions.
  • the surface is modeled on known sandpaper / sandpaper, with a large number of disordered grains of any density of the size mentioned above being on the surface.
  • the size of the protrusions corresponds to the grain size according to DIN ISO 6344 or CAMI the values of about 1300 - 30 (at 0.02 to 0.8 mm), preferably 250 - 60 (at 0.1 to 0.4 mm).
  • DIN ISO 6344 or CAMI the values of about 1300 - 30 (at 0.02 to 0.8 mm), preferably 250 - 60 (at 0.1 to 0.4 mm).
  • it is advantageous to provide the grains with an appropriately thick lacquer coating since otherwise the yarns of the textile can get caught on the undercuts of the grains, so that the textile is difficult to remove without damage from the protector.
  • a donning aid can be used, consisting of a flexible cover plate, at the lower end of which a substantially more flexible inner mat, preferably a coated textile material, is attached.
  • the donning aid is not the subject of this invention, but will be explained here as a supplement.
  • the cover element can contain a handle device.
  • the shin guard is placed on the inner mat, which rests on the cover plate, so that the cover plate completely or at least for the most part covers the surface of the shin guard, which is covered with protrusions.
  • the shin guard can now be comfortably pushed under the support or the support can be pulled over the shin guard without any problems. After putting on the shin guards can still be aligned optimally. The tightening aid can then be pulled out of the support on the cover plate.
  • the cover plate can have a handle device. The inner mat is drawn over the surface. This prevents direct contact of the cover plate with the protrusions on the surface of the shin guard and protects the cover plate / pulling aid from abrasion.
  • present invention is used for a variety of other body protectors for athletes can be used, for example, in body protectors for hockey players, in elbow, knee and leg protectors for inline skates, skiers and snowboarders as well as in protectors for mountain biking and BMX.
  • a shin guard which consists of one or more rigid shields which are adapted to the body shape and which have a damping material on a side facing the body.
  • the present invention can also be used in flexible body protectors which, for example, consist of laminated or non-laminated foam material or of so-called 3D fabric.
  • 3D fabric is a knitted fabric made of a large number of plastic fibers, which are arranged between two fabrics and extends essentially perpendicular to the plane of the two fabrics.
  • Fig. 1 explains schematically the basic structure and the mode of operation in a first embodiment.
  • a rigid plate 11 preferably of plastic
  • the projections 13 are formed such that their lateral surfaces are at least partially aligned approximately perpendicular to the occurring shearing forces.
  • the diameter of the projections 13 is preferably selected such that they can penetrate into the textile, in particular into the spaces between the yarns 14 or in their meshes, from connectors or compression connectors that are usually worn over the body protection device, and thus a positive interlinking of the projections 13 enable with the textile.
  • the height of the projections 13 is preferably chosen so that the projections 13 do not significantly pierce through the textile in order to prevent the opponents from being endangered.
  • the projections 13 are made of a sufficiently hard material and are present in sufficient numbers on the surface.
  • the exact degree of hardness and the number of projections 13 depend on the expected shear loads and the textile used, in particular their thickness and coarseness, of the support above. A certain deformability of the projections 13 is also conceivable in order to rule out any danger to the opponents.
  • the projections 13 are not firmly connected to the yarns 14 , but only lie in them in a form-fitting manner, it is possible to loosen the textile much more easily when undressing. In this way, the support or compression support can be made lighter and thinner in comparison to firmly connected solutions, which are based, for example, on Velcro connections become. It should be noted here that the height of the projections 13 must not be chosen too large, in order not to make it difficult to undress the support.
  • the projections 13 can be considered with suitable methods either directly during the manufacture of the rigid shield 11 , in particular by being contained in a corresponding injection mold. It is also possible to attach them, for example, by press spraying, welding, gluing, injection molding or similar processes. In particular, plastics such as thermoplastic polyurethane or polyolefins, for example acrylic butadiene styrene (ABS), are recommended as materials.
  • suitable methods either directly during the manufacture of the rigid shield 11 , in particular by being contained in a corresponding injection mold. It is also possible to attach them, for example, by press spraying, welding, gluing, injection molding or similar processes.
  • plastics such as thermoplastic polyurethane or polyolefins, for example acrylic butadiene styrene (ABS), are recommended as materials.
  • Fig. 2 shows a preferred embodiment of the present invention.
  • the shape of the protrusions 23 is asymmetrical, but their lateral or lateral surfaces are at least partially oriented at right angles to the thrust forces or the surrounding surface of the rigid shield 11 .
  • This disordered arrangement and design of the projections 23 has the advantage that the concatenation of the components of the socket-shin protector can take place relatively independently of the mesh rows of the socket, so that a free placement of the shin protector under the support is possible.
  • Projections 23 designed in this way can be used in addition to Fig. 1 achieve the above-mentioned manufacturing process also by a subsequent surface coating.
  • fine grains are added to a varnish, for example based on PUR or acrylic, which can consist, for example, of glass shot, glass bubbles, plastics such as acrylic, minerals or ceramic materials, and which is applied to the rigid shield 11 using the usual methods.
  • This "stand lacquer" resembles the surface of known sandpaper, but in contrast has hardly any undercuts in the projections 23 , so that when the support is removed, the yarns 14 do not get caught on the projections 23 and the textile of the support is not damaged when undressing.
  • Fig. 3 shows a perspective view of a donning aid 30 in a possible embodiment.
  • Fig. 4 explains in section view the application method with the embodiment of the donning aid 30 Fig. 3 .
  • the donning aid 30 is placed on the surface of the shin guard 41 , which is covered with protrusions 13, 23 , before it is put on. It remains there until the shin guard 41 and the support 42 are applied and aligned. Thus, through the dressing 30, the contact of LOPS 42 with the projections 13, 23 of the Shin guard 41 prevented, so that the application is facilitated.
  • the flexible cover plate 31 is provided with a handle device 33 , on which the tightening aid 30 can be pulled out under the support 42 . In the lower area of the cover plate 31 , a much more flexible inner mat 32 is attached, which consists, for example, of a coated or uncoated textile, a flexible plastic, textile, elastomer or the like.
  • connection 34 can be made, for example, by sewing, welding or gluing.
  • This inner mat 32 is pulled up to the cover plate 31 and prevents the cover plate 31 from rubbing against the projections 13 , 23.
  • a considerably lower amount of force is required to remove the tightening aid 30 , and wear and abrasion on the cover plate 31 and on the projections 13 , 23 prevented.
