MOTORCYCLE JACKET

OBJECT OF THE INVENTION

The present invention relates to a motorcycle jacket that comprises a versatile and easy-to-fit neck protection.

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION

Biker jackets are known that comprise a jacket body to shelter the trunk and arms of the user, and where in addition the jacket body is provided with an upper neck to shelter the user's neck. These jacket collars fit around the user's throat to protect it from the cold. As this protection is often insufficient, there are also known tubular garments for the user's neck, called panties, which are placed on the outside of the jacket collar overlapping the same and that are partially introduced under the helmet overlapping inside it , being able to raise them to the height of the nose, thus protecting the user's neck.

As it has been said, the collar of the jacket is often too low, and it goes cold, while the panty has the disadvantage that it is necessary to remove the helmet and open the jacket to put it on, forcing even to disassemble the motorcycle.

This drawback is solved with the use of the motorcycle jacket of the invention.

DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

The motorcycle jacket of the invention has a configuration that achieves perfect protection of the user's neck and can be put on or placed without removing the helmet.

The jacket of the invention is of the type comprising a jacket body provided with an upper neck, and according to the invention:

-includes an overshoot attached to the jacket body, whose overskin has a height equal to or greater than the distance to which the outer throat (5) of the biker's helmet is when worn (said outer throat being the area of the helmet that it is arranged between its lower edge or base and the ventilation openings, in the outer shell of the helmet),

-the upper part of the overshoot has an amplitude equal to or greater than the perimeter of said outer throat, to be able to cover the same outside, and

-In addition, the upper part of the over-neck comprises means for fastening and adjusting against the outer throat of the helmet, to be held therein.

As an overlining it is understood in this document that it is an additional portion of the collar of the jacket, or that externally overlaps the collar of the jacket, while the collar of the jacket is the opening of the jacket body for the passage of the user's neck.

In this way, the jacket can be worn with the overshoot of the same lowered, and the helmet on, and if necessary, you just have to climb the jacket's overskin until the outer throat of the helmet is overlapped, where it will be held by the fastening and adjustment means, and the biker's neck protected.

But it is that in addition to achieving the intended purpose, which was to be able to protect the user's neck without removing the helmet and unbuttoning the jacket, the additional advantage has been found that it is much more comfortable than a neck pant. Indeed, the neck panty has seams and thicknesses that are stuck in the user's skin because the helmet, to achieve adequate protection, has an inner shell of energy absorbing material that compresses the user's head and neck area, even partially the face and chin, and as the panty runs between the skin and said shell is stuck in the skin, which does not happen with the jacket of the invention when going over the neck on the outside of the helmet at all times. In addition, many times the panty makes it difficult for the user to breathe, by internally overlapping with the ventilation inlets, which also does not occur with the jacket of the invention.

PREFERRED EMBODIMENT OF THE INVENTION

The biker jacket (1) of the invention is of the type comprising a jacket body (2) provided with upper neck (55) and sleeves (4) in the preferred embodiments as seen in the figures, which according to the invention:

-includes an overshoot (3) attached to the jacket body (2) and having a height equal to or greater than the distance at which the outer throat (5) of the hull (50) of the rider is located,

-the upper part of the over-neck (3) has an amplitude equal to or greater than the perimeter of said outer throat (5), and

-In addition, the upper part of the over-neck (3) comprises fastening and adjustment means against the outer throat (5) of the helmet (50).

Ideally the overshoot (3) will have sufficient height to leave a comfortable turning freedom of the head for the pilot. It is estimated that this condition could be fulfilled with a height of said overshoot between the distance to which the outer throat (5) of the hull (50) of the rider is when it is worn, which would be a configuration

with a minimum freedom of movement for the head, and twice that distance, which would be a configuration with more freedom of movement and not excessively large, as well as any intermediate height. Given the distance to the helmet (50) it is variable, being smaller in the front than in the back, and also dependent on the height of the jacket from which the overcurl (3) starts, it cannot be expressed numerically.

The fastening and adjustment means of the upper part of the over-neck (3) against the outer throat (5) of the helmet (50) preferably comprise a gathered (8) made for example by elastic elements and / or adjustable cords. Said pucker (8) ideally comprises a non-slip inner liner (80) (rubber or the like) to be perfectly fixed.

In a first embodiment of the invention shown in Figures 1 and 2, the jacket body (2) is closed and the over-collar (3) is also closed. With this configuration, the jacket (1) is put on the head, and shelters more because it has no front opening.

In a second preferred embodiment of the invention shown in Figures 3 and 4, the jacket body (2) is open and the over-collar (3) comprises a first opening (30) in continuity with the second opening (20) of the body of jacket (2). In this case, the fastening and adjustment means against the outer throat (5) of the helmet (50), in addition to the puckering (8), comprise adjustable closures (10) of the over-neck (3). This embodiment allows the jacket (1) to be dressed conventionally, opening it. Ideally, the adjustable closures (10) are arranged at the ends (31) of the first opening (30) of the over-neck (3), so that said ends do not move with the wind, and also ideally the ends (31) of the First opening (30) of the overcurl (3) comprises an overlapping zone (33) with each other (see fig. 4) to perfectly seal the first opening (30) against the wind. The adjustable closures (10) can be realized, for example, by:

- portions of adhesive fabric,

- portions of adhesive curl,

-imanes,

-broaches,

-buttons, and / or zippers.

In addition, it is provided that the overcurl (3) comprises (see fig. 5), at least one layer of impermeable fabric (36), and / or windproof fabric (37) and / or independent thermal insulation fabric (38) or together. Said layers (36, 37, 38) of overlining fabric (3) 5 will be very preferably breathable. In figure 5 this concrete variant carries these three layers (36, 37, 38).

Describing sufficiently the nature of the invention, it is indicated that the description thereof and its preferred embodiment should be interpreted in a non-limiting manner, and that it encompasses all of the possible variants of embodiment that are deduced from the content of the present memory and claims.
