Definitions
- the present invention relates to a swimming aid, consisting of a hose-like, inflatable body which comes to rest around the body of a person wearing the same, with at least one inflation socket and a neck loop which is to be worn around the neck and forms at least one air chamber.
- swimming aid chosen is intended to express that this is an aid for a person who is actively practicing water sports. This is in contrast to life jackets or life jackets, which are subject to increased safety criteria and are essentially intended to guarantee great buoyancy.
- life jackets or life jackets which are subject to increased safety criteria and are essentially intended to guarantee great buoyancy.
- life or life jackets reference is made, for example, to US Pat. No. 4,654,016.
- the possibility of practicing sport and being able to move largely unhindered is hardly taken into account at all.
- the same can be said about the driving aid according to US-A-4 '131'974, which above all should also bring rescue to a person wearing clothes.
- the inflatable propellant consists of a neck loop with thickened ends, so that the entire structure has the shape of an omega.
- the drive body is attached to the body of the person carrying it in a stable position by means of straps.
- DE-A-28'37'497 describes a swimsuit, either with an inflatable chest ring or a ring running around the neck as well as two arched floats running under the swimmer's arms .
- the aesthetics of this solution are hardly suited to being worn by a swimmer all the time.
- a swimming aid of the type mentioned at the outset is apparent from WO 91/18786.
- the inflatable body has a U-shaped design and is divided into several chambers, each of which is equipped with an inflation nozzle.
- the inflatable body that can be placed around the swimmer's neck thus forms a neck loop that can be lashed together with an upper fastener and is finally fixed to the body of the person wearing it with a second strap around the stomach.
- the neck loop has shorter, straight closings on both sides Air chambers on the side of the swimmer's body thanks to appropriate straps that cross on the back and are connected in the abdominal area.
- a swimming aid of the type mentioned at the outset which is characterized in that the neck loop merges in one piece into a back loop and can be fixed in the position of use by a locking mechanism which holds the annular, closed, inflatable body 1 in the chest area of the person wearing it .
- the solution according to the invention is also particularly suitable for children.
- the locking mechanism consists of two locking parts that can be fixed at different distances from each other via a length-adjustable organ, but can only be released to a limited extent.
- Another aspect of this solution is that it can be used to adapt the buoyancy aid to the body size of the user, so that a correct mounting can be achieved for each user even with a few design sizes.
- Fig. 1 - a first embodiment of a swimming aid in the use position in front view
- Fig. 2 the same swimming aid with a view of the back.
- Fig. 3 - a second, preferred embodiment of the swimming aid again in the state as it is worn in front and view
- Fig. 6-8 - a preferred closure belonging to the buoyancy aid in the largely closed and open position, as well as in section and
- Fig. 9-11 - a variant of such a closure in the same three representations.
- the buoyancy aid according to the invention consists of an inflatable body, which is designated overall by 1.
- This inflatable body 1 can consist of a single air chamber or can be divided into several partial air chambers for safety reasons. In principle, however, the inflatable body forms a single, annularly closed body.
- this ring-shaped body can be pulled together and fixed at one point, so that the ring-shaped body then forms the shape of an eight, the upper loop of which forms the neck loop 2 and the lower loop of which forms the back loop 3.
- the ring-shaped inflatable body 1 is thus contracted only in the chest area of the person wearing it, so that the two loops described form.
- weld seams running transversely to the longitudinal direction, the ring-shaped inflatable body 1 could easily be divided into several partial air chambers in order to meet certain safety regulations. Of course, each sub-chamber must then be provided with a separate inflation nozzle 5.
- the closing mechanism 4 can be designed as a separate plastic element in the form of a two-part, collapsible buckle, by means of which the inflatable body 1 is squeezed together in the chest area. This squeezing can take place in such a way that no air can circulate in the area of this buckle.
- the closing mechanism 4 divides the inflatable body 1 into two individual partial air chambers which do not communicate with one another. One partial air chamber then forms the neck loop 2 and the other partial air chamber forms the back loop 3. It is then sufficient to provide a single inflation nozzle 5.
- the inflation nozzle 5 is made relatively long, so that the user can still inflate the inflatable body 1 even when worn.
- retaining tabs 7 can be provided, under which the inflator 5 can be pushed. In this position, the inflation sleeves 5 lie flat on the inflatable body 1 on.
- the retaining tabs 7 can be freely movable, elastic rings or only plastic film strips welded to the edge areas 8.
- the closing mechanism 4 according to FIG. 1 can be closed, for example, with a snap mechanism that can be opened via a push button 9.
- the buckle can be firmly connected to the inflatable body 1 by welding or gluing.
- the variant of the buoyancy aid according to FIGS. 3 to 5 is completely identical in its general structure to the previously described embodiment.
- certain changes were made that result in an increased buoyancy without restricting the freedom of movement, which is already fully available in the first variant.
- the main changes are that the neck loop 2 and the back loop 3 both have an air chamber section 2 'in the neck area and 3' in the back area which is enlarged in cross section.
- This design not only leads to a different aesthetic design, but also leads to better fitting of the neck loop 2 and back loop 3 to the corresponding parts of the body. In particular, they also allow a flatter design without reducing the buoyancy.
- the inflatable body 1 can be enlarged to form breast air chamber sections 10 with a larger cross section. This cross-sectional enlargement also takes place without increasing the application thickness on the body of the person wearing the swimming aid. With this design, the arm and armpit areas also remain completely free and do not influence the freedom of movement of the user.
- the closing mechanism 4 is designed here in the form of a tab 11, which engages around the one expanded air chamber section 10 in the chest area and is held fixed to it and is long enough that it can encompass the second expanded air chamber section in the opposite area.
- the two expanded air chamber sections 10 are finally fixed in the chest area, for example, by means of a push button 12, as shown in FIG. 3, or with a Velcro fastener 13, as shown in FIG.
- a push button 12 as shown in FIG. 3
- Velcro fastener 13 as shown in FIG.
- the locking mechanism 4 also be integrally connected to the inflatable body 1. It is only essential that the inflatable body 1 consists of a continuous ring-shaped element from one or more partial air chambers and that the fixation takes place solely by means of the closing mechanism 4 in the chest area. At the same time, the design leads to a shape that conforms to the body shape of the user, but does not restrict his freedom of movement.
- FIGS. 6-11 While the closure design forms described so far are more suitable for adults and allow a complete opening, two preferred variants are shown in FIGS. 6-11, which are also suitable for children, since by means of these closures only a loosening and size adjustment of the swimming aid is possible, however no unwanted complete opening.
- the embodiment of the closure 40 according to FIGS. 6-8 consists of two closure parts, one of which forms the tongue part 41 and the other the buckle part 42.
- the tongue part 41 has a crescent-shaped holding edge 43 which is connected in one piece to the tongue 44 and, like all other parts of the closure, is made of plastic.
- a plurality of fastening knobs 45 are formed on the underside of the holding edge 43.
- the fastening knobs 45 pass through the edge region of the inflatable body outside the weld seam of the inflatable body 1 forming the chamber
- a crescent-shaped counterplate 46 can also be pressed over the fastening knobs 45.
- the holding edge 43 and the congruent counterplate 46 can be welded together with the edge of the inflatable body.
- the buckle part 42 is designed accordingly with regard to the attachment to the inflatable body 1.
- the buckle part 42 has a step-shaped recess 47, which is also provided with attachment knobs 45. These in turn penetrate the edge of the inflatable body and a crescent-shaped counter plate 46 is pressed over the fastening knobs 45 and then welded.
- the buckle part 42 is here formally designed such that, together with the crescent-shaped holding edge 43 of the tongue part 41, it results in a circular disk-shaped closure 40, as can be seen in the closed state in FIG. 6.
- the body of the socket part 42 can be made in one part or, for manufacturing reasons, preferably in two parts. It has a central receiving slot 48 which is dimensioned such that the tongue 44 can slide therein.
- the tongue 44 can be locked in the buckle part 42 at least non-positively in any position by means of a pressure screw 49.
- the screw is designed so that it can be operated with a coin.
- the screw 49 merely presses the tongue onto the base plate of the buckle part 42.
- the tongue 44 can also have an elongated hole 44 'which defines the maximum opening of the Closure 40 defined.
- the screw 49 passes through the tongue 44, which lies between the upper plate and the base plate in the region of the receiving slot 48. The screw is clamped by means of a thread 50 in the base plate.
- Yet another variant can consist in that both the buckle part 42 in the area of the receiving slot and the tongue can have teeth 51, which also achieves a positive connection for the frictional connection.
- This closure 60 in turn consists of two closure parts, a lower part 61 and a clamping part 62.
- a cord 63 connects the two closure parts 61, 62.
- One end of the cord 63 is held in the clamping part 62. From there, the cord 63 leads to the lower part 61, bridging the intermediate space.
- a deflection groove 64 which is semicircular and is designed such that the cord 63 can be inserted through a narrowing. Again, by bridging the gap, the cord 63 is returned to the clamping part 62.
- the connection of the clamping part and the deflecting part to the inflatable body 1 takes place, as in the previously described example, by means of fastening cams and a counterplate, wherein welding can again be carried out.
- the clamping part 62 is essentially C-shaped in cross section, the vertical connecting web between the upper cover surface and the lower base surface being located in the space between the deflection part and the clamping part.
- a clamping screw 65 By means of a clamping screw 65, the two surfaces mentioned can be pressed against one another and thus the cords 63 running between them, which is led out through an outlet opening 66, can be fixed in any position.
- An end button 67 delimits the opening space between the two closure parts.
