Description
本特許出願は、2005年9月26日出願の米国仮特許出願番号第60/720,517号、発明の名称“Head and Neck Restraint System and Device”の利益及び/又は優先権を主張し、その全ての内容は、参照によって本明細書に具体的に組み入れられる。
本発明は、車、航空機、船及び/又は他の乗物の乗員が用いて、特に乗物の減速時の体の負担、疲労及び損傷の低減を助長するための頭及び首の保護装置に関する。
通常、高性能車、飛行機、船及び/又は他の乗物(総称して「乗物」)の運転者及び/又は他の乗員は、乗物の使用中に、身体的危害に対する保護を提供し、特に乗物の突然の又は急激な減速、回転又は衝撃の時に、身体的危害に対する保護を提供するように設計された装備及び/又はギアを装着する。そのような装備及び/又はギアの標準的なものには、頭部の損傷に対する保護のためのヘルメットと、乗物に取り付けられて、シート及び乗物に対する胴体の動きを拘束するための肩ハーネスとが含まれる。
本発明は、減速している乗物内に着席した乗員の頭部及び頸部に加えられる動き及び力を制御するための頭及び首の拘束システム、方法及び装置(総称して「装置」)である。
図1〜4には、全体として100と指定された頭及び首の拘束装置の代表的な実施形態のさまざまな図が描写されており、この装置を用いて、動いている乗物内で着席している乗員に、中でも乗物の減速時に加えられる力を制御する。とりわけ、頭及び首の拘束装置100は、乗物の急激な減速時、たとえば衝撃時に、着席している乗員に加えられる力を制御するように設計される。本頭及び首の拘束装置100は、車、航空機及び船(総称して、「乗物」)に用いることができるが、中でも全てのタイプの高性能車両、たとえばレースカーに用いることができる。また、頭及び首の拘束装置100は、遊園地又は他の場所で用いられることがあるような、着席型及び非着席型の静止した又は動く乗り物と接続して用いてもよい。明らかなように、頭及び首の拘束装置100は、さまざまなほかのタイプの装置で用いてもよい。
