Definitions

  • the invention relates to a protective garment comprising inflatable cushions or airbags, which a user can position around his waist and his legs to make safe the practice of a dangerous activity such as motorcycling, skiing, or even riding. horse riding.
  • Protective clothing is already known equipped with inflatable cushions or airbags, used for example to protect oneself when riding a motorbike or skiing.
  • protective vests have been developed, comprising at least one inflatable cushion on the front and another on the back, to make it possible to secure the thorax of a user.
  • the airbags of all the equipment presented above cover a large surface area of the user's body, in order to maximize protection.
  • they may prove to be a hindrance for the user's mobility and in fact may even cause risks of accidents.
  • the object of the invention is to alleviate at least in part the drawbacks of the prior art.
  • one aim of the invention is to provide a protective garment which is simple and quick to put on, and which offers improved protection for the user.
  • this garment While remaining aesthetic, this garment must be able to be put on and taken off quickly and easily over street clothes to keep the original outfit specific to the day's activities, and to be worn only during the practice of the so-called “risky” activity.
  • Another object of the invention is to provide a protective garment comprising inflatable cushions adapted to protect the user without however causing any risk of accident in the event of their inadvertent triggering of their inflation.
  • a subject of the invention is also the use of a protective garment according to the above description in the practice of motorcycling, skiing, parachute jumping or horse riding.
  • the protective garment according to the invention has a structure which allows it to be put on easily and quickly by a user, by wrapping the upper and lower portions of each leg band around their thigh and their calf respectively. In particular, it is not necessary to put it on by the foot, nor to have to take off the shoe.
  • the knee Due to the shape of the leggings and the arrangement of the airbags, optimum protection is ensured for the user.
  • the knee is protected by the inflatable cushions located on either side of the notch of each leg. Once the cushions are inflated, the knee is at the bottom of a recess delimited by the cushions, which ensures its protection.
  • the absence of an airbag at the knee makes it possible, in the event of untimely release of the cushions, not to reduce the mobility of the knee and therefore not to create stiffness which could cause accidents.
  • the other airbags are advantageously positioned on the areas most likely to be affected in an accident, namely the back of the calf and an area located at the rear, and on the outer side of the thigh.
  • the thickness of the latter cushion is adapted so as not to prevent at least partially bending the leg.
  • a protective garment 1 which can be used to secure a user for example in the practice of two-wheelers, in particular motorcycles, and also in the practice of horse riding, skiing or other sports of sliding, or even parachute jumping.
  • This protective garment 1 takes the form of trousers, or more precisely of an over-trousers, that is to say that it is preferably placed above the trousers of a user.
  • the protective garment 1 comprises a belt 10 adapted to come to surround the waist of a user U, and two leggings 20 connected to the belt 10. Each legging is adapted to surround the leg of a user, and in particular comprises an upper portion. 21 adapted to be wrapped around the thigh, and a lower portion 22 adapted to be wrapped around the user's calf.
  • each leg 20 therefore take substantially the form of bands which can be wound around the leg and closed by means of a closure device 29 located at the opposite ends of the band.
  • the belt 10 is preferably adapted to be able to be closed around the waist of the user, and therefore also has the shape of a band provided at its opposite ends with a closure device 29.
  • the belt and the leggings are preferably formed of a textile material having a high abrasion resistance, as is the case, for example, of the polyester fiber textiles marketed under the trade names Tergal, Dacron, Mylar (for example polyester of 600 denier, the denier being the weight in grams of a length of 9 meters of fabric yarn), or textiles in polyamide fibers marketed under the names Nylon or Tenax, the textile preferably being coated with a coating making it waterproof, for example silicone.
  • a waterproof textile with the possibility of using additional waterproof fabric bands that can be released in the event of rain and attach to the garment by means of velor-hook bands on the visible parts and exposed to the rain.
  • the garment 1 can therefore also replace rain pants to further provide protection in terms of safety.
  • each leg is interconnected by an intermediate portion 23, typically in the form of a strip.
  • This intermediate portion 23 is shaped so that the leg has a notch 24 facing the front face of the user's knee once the leg 20 is in position on the leg of the user.
  • the band 23 is then positioned behind the knee joint.
  • each leg 20 is integrally connected to the belt 10 by a band 25 which is shaped so that the garment 1 has a notch 26 facing the user's crotch.
  • the garment 1 further comprises a plurality of inflatable cushions 30, also known by the anglemia “airbag”, as well as a trigger system 40 (shown in figures 3, 4a and 4b ) airbags adapted to trigger the inflation of the cushions under predetermined circumstances.
  • a trigger system 40 shown in figures 3, 4a and 4b .
  • the airbags 30 are judiciously positioned to provide protection for the knees of the users.
  • the upper portion 21 and the lower portion 22 of each leg each comprise an airbag 30 disposed adjacent to the notch 24, two cushions 30 therefore being on either side of the notch.
  • these cushions are sized so that when inflated, their thickness is at least 3 cm. Consequently the knee is located in a recess at least 3 cm deep delimited by the cushions once inflated, corresponding to the thickness of the cushion plus the thickness of the garment's leg. This recess allows the knee to move away from an impact surface.
  • the thickness of the cushions once inflated is preferably less than 8 cm to prevent an untimely release from generating a loss of control of the vehicle (for example in the case of a side impact triggering a side cushion, and following which the driver succeeds in regaining control of the vehicle).
  • each leg pad preferably includes two further airbags.
  • An airbag 30 is located on the lower portion 22 of each leg 20, being positioned so as to cover, and therefore protect, the back of the user's calf when the latter is wearing the garment. It will be understood that the distance between the two cushions 30 of the lower portion 22 of the leg to obtain this result depends on the size of the user and therefore on the size of the garment. In a manner known per se, it is possible to propose a garment having several standardized sizes to correspond to people of various statures.
  • Another airbag 30 is located on the upper portion 21 of each leg 20, being positioned so as to cover, and therefore protect, an area located on the outer side of the thigh.
  • this cushion covers preferably an area disposed on the quarter of the circumference of the thigh defined between the right and the back of the user. This cushion is therefore offset outwards with respect to the rear of the thigh, so as to optimally protect users of two-wheelers. Indeed, it is this area, and not the back of the thigh, which is mainly affected in the event of an accident.
  • this cushion 30 is shaped so as to have a thickness, once inflated, of between 3 and 8 cm. Indeed, the thickness must exceed a minimum thickness to guarantee the protection of the thigh, but must not exceed a maximum thickness beyond which the user would be hampered to bend his leg, given the position of this cushion.
  • the airbag trigger system 40 comprises a compressed air cartridge 41, which is advantageously positioned in a belt pocket which is accessible to the user, but which preferably can be closed to prevent the cartridge from being released. exit.
  • the trigger system 40 further comprises a supply circuit 42 for the cushions 30, connecting the cartridge 41 to each of the cushions.
  • the trigger system 40 comprises a control unit 43, adapted to control the opening of the compressed air cartridge so that the latter inflates the cushions.
  • This control unit advantageously comprises a computer (not shown) of processor, microprocessor or microcontroller type.
  • the triggering system further comprises one or more sensors 44, which may include one or more speed sensors and one or more accelerometers.
  • the control unit 43 is then connected to the sensors and adapted to control the inflation of the cushions in the event of a deceleration greater than a predetermined threshold, combined or not with an initial speed before the deceleration greater than another threshold.
  • the vehicle can also include a speed sensor to which the control unit is connected, advantageously by a wireless connection of the Bluetooth type.
  • the control unit can then trigger the inflation of the airbags when the difference between the speed of the vehicle and the speed of the garment exceeds a predetermined threshold.
  • the garment in the case of use of the garment when traveling on two-wheeled vehicles, may include a connection cable 45 to the vehicle which is connected to the control unit.
  • the control unit can trigger the airbags.
  • the garment 1 can be used with a protective vest, itself equipped with airbags and a trigger system.
  • the control unit 43 is advantageously connected to the system for triggering the vest by a connection interface 46, preferably wired, and receives from said system the instructions for triggering the inflation of the cushions.
  • each closure device 29 of the leggings advantageously make it possible to accommodate a small variation in length of the strip of textile forming these leggings, without opening.
  • each closure device preferably comprises strips of velor-hook at the ends of each strip and adapted to face each other.
  • each closure device may include several rows of snaps, so that some may come off during inflation.
  • the structure of the garment, coupled with the arrangement of the cushions, therefore provides optimum protection for the user, including in the event of an unexpected release of the cushions.
  • the cutouts can be widened by minimizing the parts of the garment so as to also allow scooter users to equip themselves with this protective clothing while minimizing the bulk it induces.
