Definitions
- the invention relates to a method for protecting people against injuries and a device for protecting people against injuries in the event of falls.
- Bone fractures occur particularly in the elderly in the area of the wrist, shoulder and hip, whereby the probability of a fracture increases with the decreasing resilience of the bones, for example due to pathological changes in the bones or joints.
- Prophylactic protection has already been proposed insofar as, in particular, elderly people at risk of falling are provided with appropriate padded items of clothing in order to correspondingly reduce the vibrations in the event of a fall.
- implants that can withstand higher loads, but this naturally requires a surgical intervention.
- a method for the protection of injuries to persons which does not involve the inconvenience of a bulky garment with appropriate padding, therefore contributes to improving the quality of life of such persons at risk.
- a portable device of the type mentioned at the outset which is intended to ensure protection, in particular of the hips.
- This device is a belt worn outside the clothing, which contains an airbag and is folded up when not inflated. When triggered, such a belt must first unfold to form a sufficient area for padded protection and can be inflated by a gas cartridge.
- the triggering takes place by means of an acceleration sensor, triggering taking place at accelerations which are equal to or greater than the gravitational acceleration.
- a corresponding arrangement is only intended to detect downward movements.
- the known device is considerably smaller than other devices already proposed, but has the disadvantage that it must be created in addition to the clothing. For reasons of convenience or carelessness, it can often happen that the belt is not put on when it is needed, so that there is no complete protection.
- the invention further aims to avoid false triggers and to provide a device in which, after safely inflating to cushion a fall, the original state is quickly achieved again, so that the functional reliability of the protection is again ensured again after a relatively short time.
- the method according to the invention essentially consists in that the acceleration of at least one body point of the person is determined and evaluated in three axes, that the path covered after acceleration begins is monitored and the movement path is determined, and that the triggering is initiated when the Trajectory of one straight line deviates.
- Acceleration sensors of this type in which multiaxial accelerations are detected, can also provide measured vibration values, whereby in the event of an impact which gives rise to such vibrations, the risk of an injury which has already occurred can no longer be excluded with certainty.
- statistics have shown that catching a fall after a first collision with a hard object still significantly reduces the risk of injury if the corresponding joint has survived the first impact without damage.
- the method according to the invention can be further improved by comparing the determined trajectory with stored trajectories that frequently occur in the event of falls and that the airbag is triggered when the determined trajectory follows one of the stored trajectories along a tolerance range.
- the distance traveled since the start of the movement can also be determined from the sensor signals become. If, for example, a person falls into a chair from a short distance, the distance covered in this connection will be considerably smaller than the path which is much more critical for a risk of injury and which is covered on the floor until a fall. Such short distances, which do not necessarily give rise to injuries, can therefore be used to block the deployment of the airbag.
- limit values for the distance covered is particularly important for people who like to drop into an armchair or armchair for convenience, since in these cases the distance covered in such a free fall is below the limit value for the release and therefore false triggering. airbag prevented.
- the definition of a path center naturally requires a one-time adjustment to the size of the person to be protected, since the radius of a critical path that is characteristic of a free fall changes depending on the body size.
- the device according to the invention for protecting persons against injuries in the event of falls with an airbag which triggers as a function of sensor signals is essentially characterized in that at least one inflatable airbag chamber is arranged on or in an item of clothing which surrounds the body, such as trousers or a shirt, that at least one sensor is provided for the three-axis determination of the acceleration and that an evaluation circuit is provided in which is calculated from the sensor signals the path of an accelerated movement and compared with a straight or stored movement path, the rapid readiness for operation can be ensured by the fact that the airbag is equipped with air-permeable walls or at least one throttle valve for controlled pressure reduction after triggering .
- the inflatable airbag chamber is arranged directly on or in a shirt or underpants ensures that it cannot be forgotten to put on the device for protection, it being of course essential for the acceptance of such a piece of clothing that flat pads Made of appropriately flexible material, which offer the same wearing comfort after putting on and before the release process as conventional undergarments.
- a relatively small, correctly positioned cushion is sufficient for efficient protection, the cross-sectional height of which, when inflated, can be less than 1 cm in order to ensure effective protection.
- the design is particularly advantageously such that the airbags protect the joints to be protected, e.g. Grip your hips, shoulders or the like symmetrically.
- Such a symmetrical loading of problem areas leads to a corresponding stabilization and reduction of the risk of injury.
- a further improvement in the precision of the release can be achieved in that at least one pressure sensor is additionally arranged in the sole area of a shoe. In this way, a loss of contact with the ground and thus the danger of a fall can be quickly recognized and at the same time an additional reference point can be obtained for the center point of the calculated trajectory.
- the airbag, the sensors and the components required for the deployment and inflation of the airbags in a common, flat construction, pocket or sack-like part are integrated, which is detachably connected to an item of clothing.
- the arrangement of all the components in a common pocket-like or sack-like part, which is detachably connected to an item of clothing, enables rapid and uncomplicated attachment to items of clothing.
- the detachable part can be connected to underpants in the manner of back pockets via Velcro fasteners or snap fasteners.
- the device according to the invention is developed so that the item of clothing prepared for connection to the detachable part carries contacts, magnets, coils or metal plates which cooperate with correspondingly arranged, in particular magnetically or inductively, actuatable switches when the detachable part is correctly positioned. If the detachable part is correctly positioned on the item of clothing, ie if the switches of the detachable part which can be actuated in particular magnetically or inductively are brought into register with the contacts arranged on the item of clothing, the switches are actuated, which can be communicated to the user, for example, by means of control lamps .
- FIG. 1 shows the device according to the invention on a body of a patient
- FIG. 2 shows a piece of clothing prepared for the attachment of the device according to the invention
- FIG. 3 shows an undergarment to which the device according to the invention is attached.
- the patient to be protected is designated by 1 in FIG. 1, the pelvic bone 3 to be protected or the thigh necks 4 to be protected being visible in the area of the undergarment 2.
- Two detachable pockets or sack-like parts 5 are now attached to the undergarment 2, in which an airbag, the sensors and the components required for the deployment and inflation of the airbags are integrated. If the patient falls, the airbags contained in the bag-like or bag-like parts 5 are inflated, which is indicated by the dashed lines 6 in FIG. 3.
