Definitions

  • the present invention generally relates to closures of textile products, such as garment, e.g. jackets, in particular protective garment.
  • the invention further relates to the use of the closures in garments, particularly protective garment, such as jackets and double jacket systems.
  • the invention relates in particular to suits and jackets for firemen, soldiers, policemen and persons working in potentially hazardous environments such as on chemical and petrochemical plants.
  • Closures for textile products are well known. Typically zippers, buttons or hook-and-loop systems are used to close textile products like garments and alike.
  • the closure of a textile product is more critical and has more requirements than couple two textile surfaces one to the other.
  • the closure of the jacket at the front side of the jacket has a.o. to be reliable, watertight and fire resistant.
  • a simple zipper system is in this case probably not sufficient.
  • a strip of textile is used to cover the zipper, used to couple the left and right front part of the jacket one to the other.
  • the strip of textile, once provided in front of the zipper system may be held in place by e.g. a hook-and-loop system, better known as a Velcro system. Closing and keep the closure closed is of importance to ensure the jacket fulfils its function of protective wear also along the zipper part. If for whatever reason the closure is not correctly closed or kept close, the fireman's safety is put in danger.
  • a textile closure e.g. a closure of a pocket
  • a sound made may give away information on their presence.
  • the pocket needs to be kept close with certainty at all times.
  • a closure of a textile product comprises a first and a second textile surface, both the first and the second textile surface having a first side facing the same direction.
  • the second textile surface has an edge.
  • a first textile strip is coupled to the first side of the first textile surface and extends up to or beyond the edge of the second textile surface over the first side of the second textile surface.
  • the first textile strip is provided with at least one resilient means holding the first textile strip in front of, possibly against the first side of the second textile surface.
  • the at least one resilient means presses the first textile strip to the first side of the second textile surface. It means that, when the first textile strip contacts the first side of the second textile surface, the resilient means is not in a stable position and still exercises a force to the first side of the second textile surface.
  • the first side may typically be an outer side of a textile product in use, such as the outer side of a garment or a functional textile product, e.g. a door or valve from textile material, e.g. in a tent or shelter surface or alike.
  • the textile surfaces both have also a second side, being typically the inner side of the textile product in use.
  • the first textile surface may have an edge, the edges of the first and second textile surface being adjacent one to the other and the first textile strip extending beyond the edge of the first textile surface.
  • This may e.g. be the case for closures of jackets, the closure being the front closure between the left and right front part of the jacket.
  • the closure according to the invention may as well be the closure of a pocket of a garment, the first surface being the surface of the garment, the second surface being the textile sheet from which the pocket, such as a patch pocket, is made.
  • the two edges of the first and second textile surface may be mutually parallel, even being equidistant one to the other along part or the whole of the length of the edges.
  • the closure according to the invention has the advantage that it may close very silently and smoothly.
  • the closure will be kept closed and will not open except when an external force is applied to the resilient means in order to compensate the resiliency. When this external force is taken away, the closure may close by itself again.
  • the closure according to the invention may provide certainty as to the status of the closure at any point in time.
  • the closure further may comprise a second textile strip coupled to the first side of the second textile surface and extending under the first textile strip beyond the edge of the second and first textile surface.
  • the second textile strip may extend under or over the first side of the first textile surface.
  • the closure further may comprise a second textile strip coupled to the first side of the second textile surface and extending under the first textile strip beyond the edge of the first textile surface over the first side of the first textile surface.
  • the first and second textile surface may be of identical textile material as the first textile surface.
  • the first and second textile strips may be of identical textile material, optionally also identical to the textile material of the first and second textile surface.
  • the first and second textile surface may both be part of one textile material. Possibly, the textile material of the first and second textile surface is layered, and comprises two or more layers of textile material.
  • the at least one resilient means may comprise a spring, preferably a torsion spring.
  • a spring in particular a torsion spring or bistable spring, is preferred as it is fairly easy to install in the textile product and is reliable as to the force it provides on the first side of the second textile surface by the first textile strip.
  • the at least one resilient means may comprise a bistable spring.
  • This bistable spring may be a bistable hinge and may comprise a metal or polymer ribbon.
  • This ribbon may be a bistable spring band or bistable spring blade.
  • the bistable spring may, at its both sides, be provided with a polymer or metal plate, enlarging the dimension of the bistable spring.
  • bistable springs has the advantage that the first textile strip can be pressed against the first side of the second textile surface in a first of its two stable positions, preferably its stable position, thereby possibly closing a gap defined by the edge of the second textile surface. In its second position, possibly being its metastable position, the first textile strip is not pressed against the first side of the second textile surface but can leave the edge of the second textile surface accessible.
  • Changing the bistable spring from the first to the second position can be done easily by moving the bistable spring from one of the two positions towards the second of its two positions. Once the bistable spring, being in a given open or closed position, is moved sufficiently far, i.e.
  • bistable spring will further change to the other position by itself. If no such amount of work is applied, the bistable spring will return to its staring position if the force is taken away.
  • closures which have a certitude to be in either the open or closed position.
  • the resilient means may be an elastomeric volume, like an elastomeric rod or strip of material.
  • the resilient means may as well be a shape memory material, like a shape memory wire, cord, rod or strip of material.
  • shape memory material may be metal or polymer like elastomeric polymers.
  • the resilient means may comprise exotic fibres or products such as bamboo fibres or strips. All such means open and close with relatively little to no noise, and with certainty as to the position it is in, i.e. opened of closed.
  • resilient means comprising composite materials with a bended shape and being provided with a given resiliency.
  • Still another alternative is the use of an inflatable tube, which receivers to a given shape during inflation, thereby bringing, and holding the first textile strip in front of the first side of the second textile surface, even exercising a force to the first side of the second textile surface once inflated.
  • an inflated tube is an alternative for the resilient means.
  • the number and dimension of the resilient means depends largely on the properties, like the weight, of the first textile strip which is to be brought in front of the second textile.
  • the distance between adjacent resilient means may e.g. be in the range of 10 to 60 cm centre-to-centre, such as every 15 or 35 cm centre-to-centre.
  • a force is exercised by the resilient means when brought in its position in front of the first side of the second textile surface.
  • bistable spring being a bistable strip made from bistable metal or polymer plate.
  • the length of the strip may be at least,1.5 to 3 times of the width of the part of the first textile strip which is to be brought in front of the second textile.
  • the at least one resilient means may be covered partially or completely by means of a textile patch.
  • the at least one resilient means e.g. a strip of polymer or metal, or the bistable hinge or bistable spring band, may be located in a pocket.
  • the pocket may comprise a textile bag, or may comprise the textile patch, a part of the first textile surface and a part of the first textile strip.
  • the provision of covering the resilient means has the advantage that the resilient means can be sheltered from excessive forces or circumstances, like heat, humidity, light and alike.
  • the at least one resilient means may be coupled to the first textile surface.
  • This coupling can be done by sewing the resilient means onto the first textile surface.
  • the resilient means is provided with openings through which the sewing thread can pass through spring.
  • the resilient means is covered with a textile patch or is provided in a pocket, the textile patch or pocket may be provided such the resilient means is kept in place by this patch or pocket.
  • the closure may comprise a plurality of resilient means, the resilient means being spaced apart along the length of the edge of the second textile surface.
  • larger edges along one or two textile surfaces may be closed by the closure.
  • textile material can be uses to provide the first and/or second textile surface, preferably textile material with a more technical character is used.
  • Textile material which typically has a higher surface weight, and/or which is a layered structure of more than one layer of the sample of different textile sheets can be used.
  • Textile sheets or textile material with a surface weight in the range of 150 to 800 g/m 2 may be used.
  • the thickness of the textile sheets or textile material may be in the range of 0.1 to 3 mm.
  • the textile material may comprise at least one to four textile sheets or layers, the first, outer layer being the functional layer, e.g. having fire resistant properties, the second layer being a filtering membrane, such as a membrane comprising PTFE fibres, filtering chemically harmful particles from e.g. smoke, and an inner textile layer, a third layer being a non-woven out of aramid fibres, and a fourth layer being e.g. a lining material. This is in particularly the case for firemen's garments.
