JP 2007-119956 A

  In the porous body which exhibits the buffer function of the human body protector of the conventional patent document 1, it is excellent in flexibility and light weight, but since it is used by being worn on the human body, it is a material especially worn in summer The rise in temperature causes a decrease in shock absorption and stuffiness at the time of wearing.

  Since this porous body has low air permeability, there are many inconveniences such as low environmental temperature maintenance (temperature tends to be high) and low shock absorption to relatively sharp objects. .

  On the other hand, foamed polystyrene used as a cushioning material for general helmets has high impact absorption and light weight, but lacks breathability, environmental temperature maintenance performance and flexibility, lowers user comfort, and consequently helmets. It leads to dislike.

  In addition, other commonly known cushioning materials also have the advantages and disadvantages described above, and satisfy all performances of shock absorption, flexibility, breathability, light weight, and environmental temperature maintenance at a high level. It's hard to say.

  Therefore, the present invention has been made paying attention to the above-mentioned problems, and the shock absorbing structure and the human body protection satisfying all of the shock absorbing property, flexibility, breathability, light weight, and environmental temperature maintainability at a high level. The purpose is to provide ingredients.

In order to achieve the above object, in the shock absorbing structure of the present invention, the external shape is spherical, and a plurality of elastic spherical bodies that elastically deform according to the magnitude and direction of external force applied from the outside,
A structure that is provided between the elastic spheres in which the plurality of elastic spheres are assembled in a planar shape or a linear shape, and that secures a plurality of through gaps by opposing spherical surfaces that are separated from the plurality of elastic spheres, and is applied from the outside And a soft coupling structure coupled with low rigidity so that the shape of the structure can be deformed according to body deformation force.

  According to the shock absorbing structure of the present invention, since the elastic spherical body is spherical, the shock absorbing performance from all directions is exhibited. Further, high air permeability and light weight can be obtained by the through gap formed between the elastic spherical bodies. Furthermore, since the elastic spheres are “soft-bonded”, high flexibility can be obtained that deforms following the shape of the portion provided with this structure. In addition, since the air permeability is high, problems such as “steaming” and “heat accumulation” due to the low air permeability do not occur, and the environmental temperature around the elastic spherical body suitably exhibits the above-mentioned shock absorption. It is difficult to deviate from the ambient temperature.

  That is, the shock absorbing structure of the present invention can satisfy all of shock absorbing properties, flexibility, air permeability, light weight, and environmental temperature maintainability at a high level.

  EMBODIMENT OF THE INVENTION Hereinafter, the form for implement | achieving the impact-absorbing structure and human body protector which concern on this invention is demonstrated based on each Example 1-4, referring drawings.

  First, the configuration will be described.

  1 and 2 show a protective hat 1 as a human body protector according to Embodiment 1 of the present invention. FIG. 2 shows a cross-sectional view of the protective cap 1 of FIG.

  The protective hat 1 is made of a cloth material having good air permeability, and is a hat body 1B as a body protecting body, and a sheet-like shock absorbing sheet provided inside the side and top of the hat body 1B. The shock absorbing structures 2 and 3 are provided.

  The shock absorbing structure 2 is formed to have a vertical width substantially the same as the height of the side portion of the cap body 1B, and is provided so as to cover the periphery of the side portion of the hat body 1B. Therefore, the shock absorbing structure 2 is also provided on the side portion of the cap body 1B (not shown) shown in FIG.

  On the other hand, the shape and size (diameter, etc.) of the disk shape of the shock absorbing structure 3 provided inside the top portion of the hat body 1B are set to be substantially the same as the shape and size of the top portion of the hat body 1B. And are formed to match each other.

  As shown in FIG. 2, the hat main body 1B has a partially double structure, and this part serves as a seat pocket that functions as a storage part for the shock absorbing structure. The seat pocket is formed so as to exhibit a shape obtained by dividing the curved surface shape of the human body H into a plurality of parts.

Further, the double-structure portion of the cap body 1B is provided with an insertion opening 1A for storage, and the shock absorbing structures 2 and 3 can be taken in and out of the seat pocket through the insertion opening 1A.
<Shock absorbing structure on the side of the hat>
FIG. 3 shows the shock absorbing structure 2 provided on the side of the cap body 1B.

  As shown in FIG. 3 (a), the shock absorbing structure 2 includes a plurality of elastic spheres 4 arranged in a plane and a plurality of elastic spheres 4 penetrating the elastic spheres 4 vertically. And a synthetic resin yarn 5 bonded to each other in the lateral direction. The vertical and horizontal directions are the front, depth, and left and right directions in FIG.

  As shown in FIG. 3 (a), by gathering the elastic spherical bodies 4 in a planar shape, a gap 4a is formed between the opposing spherical surfaces facing the elastic spherical bodies 4.

  The gap 4a is formed as a plurality of penetrating gaps by opposing spherical surfaces separated from each other by the elastic spherical bodies 4, and penetrates from the front surface side to the rear surface side of the shock absorption structure 2, so that the shock absorption structure 2 It is a ventilation passage.

  On the other hand, the synthetic resin yarn 5 binds the plurality of elastic spherical bodies 4 to each other and suppresses the rigidity to be low so that the shape of the shock absorbing structure 2 can be deformed according to the structure deformation force applied from the outside of the shock absorbing structure 2. Bonded (soft bond). In the present application, all structures for achieving such soft coupling are referred to as soft coupling structures.

<Shock absorbing structure at the top of the hat body>
As shown in FIG. 4, the shock absorbing structure 3 includes a plurality of elastic spheres 4 arranged in a linear manner in a triple circle, and the plurality of circular elastic spheres 4 in the circumferential direction. And a plurality of synthetic resin yarns 5A that connect the three parallel synthetic resin yarns 5 in the radial direction of the circle. There is a disk shape as a whole.

  In the shock absorbing structure 3, the elastic spherical bodies 4 are softly bonded to each other by the synthetic resin threads 5 and 5 </ b> A. A gap 4a is formed between the adjacent elastic spherical bodies 4 and 4 (see FIG. 4).

<Elastic spherical body>
As shown in FIG. 3B and FIG. 6, the individual elastic spherical bodies 4 constituting each of the shock absorbing structures 2 and 3 have a spherical outer shape, depending on the magnitude and direction of external force applied from the outside. It is elastically deformed.

  The elastic spherical body 4 is made of polypropylene resin and is formed in a hollow shape. The elastic spherical body 4 is formed with vent holes 4b and 4c for communicating the inside and the outside.

  The elastic spherical body 4 has a shell thickness of about 0.3 mm, a sphere diameter of about 11 mm, and vent holes 4b and 4c having an opening diameter of about 6 mm.

  As shown in FIG. 3, each elastic spherical body 4 has its vent holes 4b and 4c facing the front and back sides of shock absorbing structures 2 and 3 (upper and lower sides in FIG. 3B). The orientation is arranged. The ventilation holes 4b and 4c and the internal space of the elastic spherical body 4 constitute a ventilation path different from the air gap 4a that connects the front surface side and the back surface side of the shock absorbing structures 2 and 3.

  As shown in FIG. 3 (b), a small thread hole 4d for allowing the synthetic resin thread 5 to pass therethrough is provided at the spherical top where the elastic spherical bodies 4 are close to each other.

  As shown in FIG. 5, a knot 5n is formed at the end of the synthetic resin yarn 5, and the knot 5n prevents the shock absorbing structures 2 and 3 from falling apart.

  Next, the operation will be described.

  First, the effects of the shock absorbing structures 2 and 3 of the protective hat 1 of the first embodiment are the “venting action”, “shock absorbing action”, “following deformation action”, “environment temperature maintaining action”, and “lightening action”. This will be explained separately.

[Breath action (breathability)]
As shown in FIG. 3, the elastic spherical bodies 4 gather in a flat shape to form a sheet, and because of the spherical shape, the gap 4 a formed between the elastic spherical bodies 4, 4 (FIGS. 3A and 4A). Function as a ventilation path that passes from the front surface side to the rear surface side of the shock absorbing structures 2 and 3, and the air permeability of the shock absorbing structures 2 and 3 is ensured (see arrows W3 and W4 in FIG. 2). .

  Since the elastic spherical body 4 is spherical, the ground contact area is reduced because the elastic spherical body 4 and the surface of the human body H and the back surface of the seat pocket of the hat body 1B are substantially point-contacted, thereby ensuring air permeability. (See FIG. 2).

  Further, as shown in FIGS. 3B and 3C, the elastic spherical body 4 is hollow, and each elastic spherical body penetrates from the front side to the back side of the sheet-like shock absorbing structures 2 and 3. Since the air holes 4b and 4c are formed in the body 4, the air permeability is further increased (see arrows W1 and W2 in FIG. 2 and FIG. 6A).

[Shock absorption action (shock absorption)]
Since the elastic spherical body 4 is spherical, it exhibits impact absorbing performance from all directions. Specifically, as shown in FIG. 6B, the shock absorbing performance is exhibited in any input direction (for example, the direction indicated by the black arrow). Unlike conventional honeycomb-shaped blocks and the like, it does not show excellent shock absorption in only one direction, but shows high shock absorption performance in all directions.

  In addition, since the outer shape of the elastic spherical body 4 is spherical, the contact surface increases as a load is applied, and injury due to local load concentration on the receiving side of the human body (such as the scalp of the human body) can be alleviated.

  Since the elastic spherical bodies 4 are softly coupled to each other, when the protective cap 1 provided with the shock absorbing structures 2 and 3 is worn, the head shape of any person H is also deformed to absorb individual differences. Fit (see FIG. 2). For this reason, when an impact is applied to the head via the protective cap 1, the impact force is dispersed without being concentrated in one place. Further, at this time, the sheet shape of the shock absorbing structure 2 is also deformed following the shape of the corner portion of the object 6, and the impact force is uniformly dispersed.

  Further, as shown in FIG. 2, the elastic spherical body 4 is hollow, and the formed vent holes 4b and 4c are oriented in both directions of the normal direction of the head of the human body H and the curved surfaces of the head. When receiving an impact, the elastic spherical body 4 is sandwiched between the object 6 and the head surface, and the vent holes 4b and 4c are substantially closed. Thereby, since the elastic spherical body 4 functions like an air bag and the air gradually escapes as time passes, the shock absorption is particularly high.

[Following deformation action (flexibility)]
Since the elastic spherical bodies 4 are softly coupled to each other, the shock absorbing structures 2 and 3 fit to follow the body shape such as the head, which varies from person to person.

  Since the elastic spherical body 4 itself is also elastically deformed, for example, the elastic spherical body 4 deforms following deformation corresponding to a fine uneven shape on the body surface.

  That is, when a structure deformation force is applied, the deformation force is uniformly dispersed by soft coupling, and the entire structure is flexibly deformed and only a part is not bent.

  Furthermore, by connecting the central part of the elastic spherical body 4, even when the shock absorbing structures 3 and 4 are fitted to the body shape, a large gap that leads to a decrease in shock absorption is not left on the other collision surface side. It has become.

  If only the end portion of the elastic spherical body 4 located on the human body H side is coupled, a large gap is likely to be formed on the impact surface side of the impact absorbing structures 3 and 4 and the impact absorbing performance is deteriorated. Therefore, if it is desired to connect at the end of the elastic spherical body 4 on the human body H side, it is preferable to provide a certain gap between the elastic spherical bodies 4 and connect both ends.

[Environmental temperature maintenance (environmental temperature maintenance)]
The air permeability of the shock absorbing structures 2 and 3 is ensured, so that “steaming” and “heat accumulation” due to the shock absorbing structures 2 and 3 do not occur, and the elasticity constituting the shock absorbing structures 2 and 3 The environmental temperature of the spherical body 4 is difficult to change. The impact-absorbing performance of the elastic spherical body 4 is not easily lowered due to environmental temperature changes.

[Lightening effect (lightness)]
The shock absorbing structures 2 and 3 are reduced in weight by the gap 4a between the elastic spherical bodies 4 and 4. For example, in the general polystyrene used for the back of the helmet, it is formed in a uniform hemispherical layer shape without voids, but in the shock absorbing structures 2 and 3 of Example 1 according to the present invention, the elastic spherical body is as described above. It is reduced in weight by the gap 4a between 4 and 4.

  Since the elastic spherical body 4 of Example 1 is hollow, it will be further reduced in weight.

  Since the shock absorbing structures 2 and 3 do not need to use a high-mass resin as in the conventional honeycomb block in order to maintain the shape, it can be said that the weight is high in this respect.

  More specifically, the shock absorbing structures 2 and 3 are formed in a flexible sheet shape by being penetrated by a plurality of elastic spherical bodies 4 in a skewer shape so that the synthetic resin yarns 5 are orthogonal to each other, and further each elastic body is elastic. Since the spherical body 4 has the property of returning to its original shape even when it is crushed, even if the entire shock absorbing structure 2 or 3 is extremely deformed by absorbing the shock, the shock absorbing structure 2 3 can return to its original shape. For this reason, the entire shock absorbing structures 2 and 3 are not irreversibly collapsed like a polystyrene foam or a honeycomb block, and it is not necessary to use a high-mass resin for maintaining the shape.

[Contrast effect]
A comparison effect using a foam material and polystyrene foam as a comparative example, which is provided on the human body wearing device and protects the human body from impact will be described.

  The foam material shown in FIG. 10 (b) is particularly excellent in flexibility and lightness, but it can be said that the balance of each performance is similarly poor overall because of its low shock absorption, environmental temperature maintenance and air permeability. .

  As shown in FIG. 10 (c), the polystyrene foam is excellent in shock absorption and has a certain level of lightness, but its flexibility, air permeability and environmental temperature maintainability are extremely low, and the balance of each performance is as a whole. Very bad.

  For this reason, foam materials are required to improve air permeability and environmental temperature maintainability without impairing flexibility and lightness. Styrofoam is required to improve flexibility, air permeability and environmental temperature maintainability without impairing shock absorption.

  On the other hand, the shock absorbing structure 2 according to the first embodiment of the present invention has the above-described functions that can solve these problems, and satisfies each performance at a high level (see FIG. 10A).

  Next, the effect will be described.

  (1) When the outer shape is spherical and a plurality of elastic spherical bodies 4 that are elastically deformed according to the magnitude and direction of external force applied from the outside, and the plurality of elastic spherical bodies 4 are assembled into a planar shape or a linear shape A plurality of through-gap 4a is secured by opposing spherical surfaces of the plurality of elastic spheres 4 provided between the elastic spheres 4 so that the structure shape can be deformed according to the structure deformation force applied from the outside. And a soft coupling structure 5 coupled with low rigidity. For this reason, the impact-absorbing structure that satisfies all of the impact absorption, flexibility, breathability, lightness, and environmental temperature maintainability can be provided by the above-described actions.

  By using the shock absorbing structure according to the present invention in place of the shock absorbing member included in the human body protector such as a conventional protective hat, it is possible to add performance which is insufficient to the conventional one.

  (2) The elastic spherical body 4 has air flow lines W1 and W2 parallel to air flow lines W3 and W4 passing from the front surface side to the back surface side thereof through the through-holes 4a of the shock absorbing structures 2 and 3. Since the ventilation holes 4b and 4c to be added are provided, in addition to the effect of (1), the protective hat 1 having higher ventilation can be obtained.

  (3) Since the elastic spherical body 4 is a hollow elastic spherical body made of a synthetic resin, the protective cap 1 is further improved in air permeability, shock absorption, and environmental temperature maintenance by the above-described shock absorbing action. Can be provided.

  (4) In addition to the effects of (1) to (3), the soft bond structure has a structure in which a plurality of elastic spherical bodies 4 assembled in a planar shape or a linear shape are connected by a synthetic resin yarn 5. It is possible to provide the protective hat 1 that has high flexibility and absorbs individual differences in the shape of the head in a higher dimension and deforms following the individual.

  (5) A hat that is normally used is a breathable cloth hat main body, a plurality of seat pockets provided on the back surface of the cloth hat main body, each having a curved head shape, and each of the plurality of seat pockets. And an impact absorbing sheet loaded in the container.

  Further, the shock absorbing sheet has a spherical outer diameter, and a plurality of elastic spherical bodies that are elastically deformed according to the magnitude and direction of external force applied from the outside, and the plurality of elastic spherical bodies are planar or linear. Provided between the assembled elastic spheres, the plurality of elastic spheres are separated from each other by opposing spherical surfaces, and a plurality of through gaps are secured, and the structure shape can be deformed according to a structure deformation force applied from the outside. In this way, the shock absorbing structure is provided with a soft coupling structure coupled with low rigidity, and has a predetermined divided sheet shape.

  For this reason, the shock absorbing structures 2 and 3 can be attached to the hats that are usually used to make the protective hat 1 satisfying all of the impact absorption, flexibility, breathability, light weight, and environmental temperature maintenance at a high level. This will not impair the original comfort and design of the hat. Human damage caused by sudden accidents that occur in daily life without wearing a disaster hood, etc. can be minimized.

  For example, when you go out, a relatively pointed object such as a metal pliers falls on the head from the top and hits you directly. In such a case, even if the head is hit unintentionally in a cave at a sightseeing spot or in an overhead escalator, the impact can be dispersed and absorbed.

  FIG. 7 shows an impact absorbing structure 7 of Example 2 according to the present invention.

  The shock absorbing structure 7 includes an elastic spherical body 4 and an adhesive portion 8 that softly bonds the elastic spherical bodies 4 to each other. The elastic spherical bodies 4 are softly coupled to each other by the bonding portion 8 to form a soft coupling structure. In addition, about the same member, the same code | symbol is attached | subjected and the description is abbreviate | omitted.

  According to the configuration of the shock absorbing structure 7 according to the second embodiment, the opening area of the gap 4a between the elastic spherical bodies 4 is increased by the bonding portion 8 to increase the air permeability, and the air permeability of the protective cap 1 is also increased. As a result, the temperature environment around the elastic spherical body 4 is less likely to change, and the environmental temperature maintainability is also improved.

  Since the degree of strength of the partial soft bond of the shock absorbing structure 7 can be changed depending on the type of adhesive used for the bonding portion 8, a desired shock absorbing structure 7 having locally different rigidity is obtained. Can do.

  For example, when it is desired to determine the shape of the cap for the shock absorbing structures 2 and 3 applied to the side portion and the top portion of the cap body 1B, the strength of the soft bond may be locally changed.

  FIG. 8 shows an impact absorbing structure 10 of Example 3 according to the present invention.

  Unlike the first and second embodiments, the shock absorbing structure 10 includes a solid elastic spherical body 11 and an elongated bonding portion 9 that softly bonds the elastic spherical bodies 11 to each other. Then, the elastic spherical bodies 11 are softly coupled to each other by the adhesive portion 9 to form a soft coupling structure. In addition, about the same member, the same code | symbol is attached | subjected and the description is abbreviate | omitted.

  According to the configuration of the shock absorbing structure 10 according to the third embodiment, since the bonding portion 9 of the second embodiment is narrower than the bonding portion 8 of the second embodiment, the air permeability of the structure is higher. . On the other hand, when the elastic spherical body 11 is solid, the impact absorbing performance of the structure is further improved. Therefore, the air permeability can be improved without impairing the shock absorption of the structure.

  For example, when there is a demand for using a hat with good breathability as much as possible as a hat to be worn in summer, the protective hat 1 provided with the shock absorbing structure 10 ensures high breathability according to demand. be able to. Moreover, although the summer is a season in which dirt such as sweat is likely to occur, the anti-stain property can be improved by making the elastic spherical body 11 solid compared to a hollow one.

  FIG. 9 shows an impact absorbing structure 12 of Example 4 according to the present invention.

  The shock absorbing structure 12 includes an elastic spherical body 11 and an adhesive portion 8 as a soft coupling structure that softly bonds the elastic spherical bodies 11 to each other. The elastic spherical bodies 11 are softly bonded to each other by the bonding portion 8 to form a soft bond structure. In addition, about the same member, the same code | symbol is attached | subjected and the description is abbreviate | omitted.

  According to the configuration of the shock absorbing structure 12 according to the fourth embodiment, the opening area of the gap 4a is narrower than that of the third embodiment by the adhesive portion 8 that softly bonds the elastic spherical bodies 11 to each other. , Breathability is low.

  That is, by changing the configuration of the adhesive portion that softly connects the elastic spherical bodies 11 and 11 as the adhesive portion 9 (see Example 3) or the adhesive portion 8, the opening area of the gap 4a is adjusted to absorb the shock. The air permeability of the structure is adjusted.

  For example, in winter, there is a demand for wearing a hat having as high a heat retention as possible. However, the impact absorbing structure 12 is formed by using a portion where the elastic spherical body 11 is softly coupled as an adhesive portion 9 in which the gap 4a is narrower than in the third embodiment. By using a combination of fabric materials suitable for the winter season, it is possible to provide the protective hat 1 having a high heat retaining property by suitably adjusting the air permeability of the shock absorbing structure.

  Thereby, the environmental temperature around the elastic spherical body 11 is maintained at an environmental temperature exhibiting high shock absorption, and the shock absorption of the elastic spherical body 11 is not impaired. As a result, a decrease in flexibility of the shock absorbing structure 12 can be suppressed.

  As mentioned above, although the impact-absorbing structure according to the present invention has been described on the basis of Examples 1 to 4, the configuration can be changed without departing from the gist of the present invention.

  The “soft bond” between the elastic spherical bodies 4 and 11 is realized by a flexible synthetic resin yarn in the shock absorbing structures 2 and 3 of the first embodiment, and a flexible adhesive in the second to fourth embodiments. Is realized. However, the configuration is not limited to these, and any configuration may be used as long as it can be “soft coupled”.

  In Example 1, the thickness, diameter, and vent holes of the elastic spherical body 4 are set to a predetermined size and length, but are not limited to these as long as the desired performance is exhibited.

  The material of the elastic spheres 4 and 11 may be of any kind, and the resin constituting the elastic spheres 4 and 11 is not limited to polypropylene, and is known as a buffer material (other resins other than polypropylene and resins) Any other known material can be used.

  The shape of the elastic spherical bodies 4 and 11 may be any spherical shape, and for example, an elliptical cross section or an oval shape may be used.

  By reducing the ground contact area by tapering the shape of the elastic spherical bodies 4 and 11 that touch the human body H or clothing, the overall breathability of the shock absorber can be further improved or decreased. Can be adjusted.

  The overall shape of the shock absorbing structure is not limited to that of the first embodiment, and may be any shape (three-dimensional shape or the like).
