Definitions

  • the present invention refers to a new alternative constructive arrangement for a manual or automatic life-saving clothing article of the type described in Brazilian patent application No. PI 0104789-2, filed on September 25, 2001, particularly designed for nautical, aquatic or aerial activities, over areas covered with water or swampy regions, with guaranteed effectiveness due to floating devices that are manually or automatically activated.
  • the present invention aims to propose an alternative solution to the above problems, and it was designed with unique subsidies which will be described hereinafter.
  • An object of the present invention is to present technical and functional subsidies to the current problems, and to solve these problems a clothing article was designed which is equipped with portions of two or more lumens or compartments strategically positioned in such a way as to maintain the head of the person wearing the life-vest out of the water.
  • the lumens or compartments may be filled either with compressed gas or a gas produced by a chemical reaction, or by a foam having a density lower than that of the water in order to provide a positive floating of this person wearing the life-vest even in a situation where the person finds it difficult to maintain the floating action, due to exhaustion, panic, muscular fatigue, muscular cramps, lack of air, heart failure, mal-de-mer, drowsiness, loss of consciousness or any other motive which may place the person in eminent danger.
  • the life-vest according to the present invention may be manufactured from any material such as a knitted fabric or a stretching and impervious material. Also, when a knitted fabric is used, it is even possible to inject the water-proofing, catalyzed foam within the cavities of the porous fabric, in a manner similar to the foams used to fill up and seal pneumatic tires.
  • the life-vest according to the present invention can be manually activated or automatically activated by sensors operating in conjunction or separately when in contact with water, depth sensors, immersion time sensors or by transcutaneous oxymetry (equipment used to measure the amount of oxygen in the blood stream that currently has the approximately the size of a wrist watch) sensors that will automatically activate the system, in order to inflate the life-vest and force the individual up to the surface of the water, therefore avoiding an irrecoverable drowning resulting from an excessive period of time under the water, thereby allowing the individual to be found and saved.
  • transcutaneous oxymetry equipment used to measure the amount of oxygen in the blood stream that currently has the approximately the size of a wrist watch
  • Fig. 4 is a perspective view showing the proposed alternative embodiment of the life-vest according to the present invention.
  • Fig. 5 is a schematic view illustrating the activation of the alternative embodiment .
  • An oxygen gas chamber 6 activated by a closed circuit 7 is positioned in the back portion of the life-jacket to release oxygen through a small diameter pipe 8 and with a mask 9 at its distal end for an eventual supply of oxygen.
  • the inventive concept may be applied in the alternative embodiment of the life-saving jacket 10 provided by a jacket 11, folded, manually or automatically activated 12, inflated from the gas cylinder 13, provided by the lock 14.
  • the manual or automatic life-saving clothing article for nautical, aquatic or aerial activities, over areas covered with water or swampy regions according to the present invention has new features which in an ultimate analysis, brings greater safety for the users, thus deserving the legal protection being claimed herewith.

Abstract

L'invention concerne une configuration d'un gilet de sauvetage à actionnement manuel ou automatique conçu en particulier pour des activités nautiques, aquatiques ou aériennes au-dessus de zones recouvertes d'eau ou de régions marécageuses. Ledit gilet de sauvetage comporte des zones correspondant à au moins deux lumières ou compartiments (01) placés de manière stratégique en un certain nombre d'emplacements de façon à maintenir hors de l'eau la tête de la personne portant ledit gilet. Ces lumières ou compartiments peuvent être remplis d'un gaz comprimé ou produit par réaction chimique, ou d'une mousse ayant une densité inférieure à celle de l'eau, activés par des capteurs ou de manière manuelle (04) afin de permettre un flottement positif de la personne portant ledit gilet, même lorsqu'elle éprouve des difficultés pour se maintenir à flot pour cause de fatigue, de panique, de fatigue musculaire, de crampes, de manque d'air, d'insuffisance cardiaque, de mal de mer, d'endormissement, de perte de conscience, ou pour toute autre raison susceptible d'exposer la personne concernée à un danger imminent.
