Abstract

The method involves reproducing naturally existing objects such as leafs or branches of plants, for making a combination of forms or variable size patterns with fluorescent colors equivalent in brightness with grey shade or non fluorescent colors used for embellishment of camouflage.

Description

La présente invention concerne un procédé de camouflage pour la chasse etThe present invention relates to a camouflage method for hunting and

les autres activités de plein air, permettant la dissimulation en milieu naturel des personnes et des équipements à l'oeil animal, en même temps que leur signalisation, par mesure de sécurité, à l'oeil humain.  other outdoor activities, allowing the concealment in the wild of people and equipment to the animal eye, at the same time as their signaling, for safety, to the human eye.

Les procédés de camouflage existant jusqu'à présent permettent une dissimulation à l'oeil animal, mais en même temps à l'oeil humain, favorisant en action de chasse les risques d'accident.  The camouflage methods that exist up to now allow a concealment with the animal eye, but at the same time with the human eye, favoring in hunting action the risks of accident.

Afin de limiter ces risques, la plupart des chasseurs ont adopté le port de dispositifs tels que brassards, gilets, casquettes ou baudriers de couleur fluorescente.  To limit these risks, most hunters have adopted the use of devices such as fluorescent armbands, vests, caps or harnesses.

L'état des connaissances en matière de perception de couleurs a permis d'affirmer que les animaux ne perçoivent pas les couleurs, y compris les couleurs fluorescentes. Les chasseurs qui adoptent le port des dispositifs de couleur fluorescente sont donc visibles des autres chasseurs, mais également des animaux, non pas en raison de celle-ci, mais en raison de leurs formes géométriques inexistantes en milieu naturel, se détachant sur le fond environnant, en particulier lorsqu'ils sont en mouvement.  The state of the art in color perception has made it clear that animals do not perceive colors, including fluorescent colors. Hunters who adopt the wearing of fluorescent color devices are therefore visible from other hunters, but also animals, not because of it, but because of their geometric shapes not found in the natural environment, standing out against the surrounding background. , especially when in motion.

La présente invention permet de répondre à la double nécessité qu'éprouve le chasseur de se dissimuler à l'oeil animal, et de se rendre très visible à l'oeil humain. Elle consiste en effet en un camouflage obtenu en déclinant dans la gamme chromatique la plus vive l'équivalence de clarté dans la gamme des teintes grises ou colorées, puis en utilisant les teintes sélectionnées, en association ou non avec des teintes non fluorescentes, pour l'élaboration de motifs dont l'association permette au support de créer un contraste le plus faible possible, à l'oeil animal, avec l'environnement naturel. Ainsi, en raison de la multitude d'environnements naturels existants, variant eux-mêmes selon les saisons, la taille, la forme et la couleur des motifs varieront de telle sorte que, combinées entre elles, elles se fondent parmi ces environnements.  The present invention makes it possible to respond to the dual need of the hunter to hide from the animal eye and to make himself very visible to the human eye. It consists of a camouflage obtained by declining in the brightest color range the equivalence of clarity in the range of gray or colored shades, then using the selected shades, in association or not with non-fluorescent shades, for development of motifs whose association allows the support to create the lowest possible contrast, with the animal eye, with the natural environment. Thus, due to the multitude of existing natural environments, varying themselves according to the seasons, the size, the shape and the color of the patterns will vary so that, combined with each other, they merge among these environments.

Dans l'une de ses variantes, adaptée au milieu forestier, le motif comporte des traits de couleur brune, figurant des branches végétales. Entre chacune de ces branches se trouvent des formes de couleurs fluorescentes ou non fluorescentes, déterminées de telle sorte que la combinaison entre ces traits et formes ne présente que peu de contraste avec le fond que constitue un paysage forestier.  In one of its variants, adapted to the forest environment, the pattern includes brown lines, representing plant branches. Between each of these branches are fluorescent or non-fluorescent color forms, determined in such a way that the combination of these features and shapes presents little contrast to the forest landscape background.

Les applications industrielles dont l'invention est susceptible sont nombreuses sur les marchés du vêtement et de l'équipement de sport et de loisirs. Ainsi, outre les chasseurs, les naturalistes, photographes, guides animaliers, mais aussi les randonneurs soucieux d'être facilement repérables, y compris en milieu montagneux, trouveront un intérêt à utiliser des vêtements et équipements, tels que sacs ou jumelles par exemple, comportant un motif élaboré d'après l'invention. Un phénomène de mode pourra s'en suivre.  The industrial applications of which the invention is likely are numerous in the markets of clothing and sports and leisure equipment. Thus, in addition to hunters, naturalists, photographers, animal guides, but also hikers anxious to be easily identifiable, including in mountainous environment, will find an interest in using clothing and equipment, such as bags or binoculars for example, comprising a pattern developed according to the invention. A fashion phenomenon may follow.
