Definitions

  • the invention relates to a jacket for carrying long objects safely hands-free.
  • US patent 3,854,640 which describes a system for carrying a pair of skis in one of the bearer's hands, with a cord gripping the skis at the shoe fastening points and being connected to a bracelet gripping the bearer's wrist.
  • the full weight of the skis has to be borne by one of the arms of the bearer who does not have both hands free and has to use his back muscles to compensate for the pressure exerted by the weight of the skis at the end of his arm. This results very quickly in fatigue, or even back pain .
  • US patent application 2004/0094586 Al is also known which relates to a carrying strap forming a shoulder harness which serves to bear the weight of a pair of skis on one of the bearer's shoulders. Said bearer is not however exempted from using the opposite hand from the bearing shoulder to exert pressure on the fore part of the skis in order to stabilize them in the area close to the body. Nor does this system allow homogeneous load distribution, or hands-free carrying.
  • the invention overcomes the drawbacks of known systems by providing a safety carrier jacket in the form of a garment or overgarment that allows long objects to be carried safely hands-free. It comprises means for securing the objects to the front face of the jacket in the area of the jacket wearer's thorax and means for distributing the weight of the objects over both of the wearer's shoulders and around the ribcage.
  • EP-1491104 describes an adult garment for carrying a baby on one's belly, either in laying position, or in upright position.
  • the supporting means are apparent
  • Corresponding harnesses, to be clipped to this garment, are designed for carrying the baby.
  • the supporting means are apparent and the garment thus cannot be worn e.g. as a common town or sport cloth.
  • CA-1329309 describes a combination utility garment designed so that a multiplicity of satchels, pouches, cases or holsters can be connected at various places thereto.
  • This combination garment is however not especially designed for carrying long devices safely.
  • the garment has a quite military-look and is thus not discreet.
  • CH-206055 describes a specific harness allowing a skier to wear his skis horizontally, pointing forward, on either sides of the body. This system is dangerous and cumbersome .
  • US-RE38497 describes a vest with retractor pockets for retractably suspending essential but easily losable fishing accessories like cutter, fly dressing and the like.
  • a jacket in the form of a garment or overgarment is taken to mean a jacket designed to cover the upper body, at least down to the waist and opening at the front.
  • the jacket has at the front and down the middle thereof a continuous opening, and for example a slide fastener (a "Zip ® " fastener) or a self-adhesive strip fastener ("VELCRO ® " type fastener) .
  • the inventive jacket may or may not have sleeves. It may merely be a straightforward light overgarment, such as a wind breaker or, on the contrary, be designed so as to thermally insulate the wearer as well. It may incidentally be rainproof and snowproof and comprise a collar and/or a hood. It may, for example, take the form of a discreet winter sports jacket or anorak. As an alternative, it may also by extension take on the form of a full ski-suit covering the skier from the shoulders to the ankles.
  • the inventive jacket is a carrier jacket, in other words a jacket that serves to hold and carry objects.
  • the jacket serves to carry objects hands-free, by releasing both of the wearer' s hands throughout the carrying time.
  • the inventive jacket is particularly suitable for carrying long objects.
  • said long objects may be mentioned, for example, and non- restrictively : planks, tubes, booms, masts, oars, standards, hockey sticks, monoskis and cross-country or alpine skis, ski poles etc . ,
  • the jacket is a safety carrier jacket, in other words it serves to carry long objects in conditions that are safe for both the wearer and for his environment.
  • a first safety feature is the alignment of the objects with the vertical line of the body at the front of the wearer in a standing position, both when stationary and while walking. It means that continuous visual checks can be performed on the objects being carried and a smaller area is taken up, which is particularly advantageous in confined spaces.
  • a second feature is the absence of catch zones on the surface of the jacket which remains smooth, with no points that might catch on any rough protuberances in its immediate environment.
  • the jacket comprises means for securing the objects to the front face of the jacket, at the thorax of the wearer.
  • the objects are secured by being fastened to an anchoring point on the front face of the jacket in a flexible manner, in other words by being pinned against the front surface of the jacket while still leaving them the power to rotate in a plane tangential to the face of said jacket at the anchoring point.
  • these securing means consists of a pocket located on the front face of the jacket at the thorax of the wearer. According to the invention, this pocket is provided with a slit out of which elements for fastening the objects may be pulled in order to allow said objects to be fastened.
  • Fastening elements in accordance with this embodiment of the securing means are, for example, straps and cords. Said straps and cords may fasten the objects by surrounding them and holding them against the jacket by at least two straps or two cords being tied to each other beyond the object to be secured.
  • the straps instead of being made out of fabric, are made out of preformed strips of thin flexible plastic material. Such plastic strips are punched to render the wearing of the jacket more comfortable.
  • the fastening elements with closure and tightening means.
  • Such means may be selected, non-restrictively, from buckles such as belt buckles, clips and clamps, self-locking ties (“Tyrap ® ”) and friction buckles.
  • the jacket will comprise a pocket provided with a slit on each of the two parts of the front face of the jacket so as to be able to carry a plurality of long objects at the same time.
  • the inventive jacket also comprises means for distributing the weight of the objects over both of the wearer's shoulders and around the thorax.
  • weight distribution means comprises causing a plurality of straps to engage with each other inside the jacket, on the wearer's body side, and causing them to engage with the jacket casing.
  • a horizontal strap can be used that is placed inside the jacket at the wearer's waist level or up to the base of the ribcage.
  • the two ends of this horizontal strap pass through slits provided in each of the two front parts of the jacket in proximity to the edge of each part at the wearer' s waist or ribcage level and are provided with closure and tightening means.
  • the means for closing and tightening the ends of the horizontal strap may be selected, for example, from buckles such as belt buckles, snap-on buckles, friction buckles and self-adhesive strips ("VELCRO ® " fastener) .
  • the horizontal strap is also supplemented with two support straps which connect the front face of the jacket to the rear face thereof by passing over the wearer' s shoulders and the two ends of which are rigidly connected to the jacket.
  • the support straps may advantageously comprise a means for adjusting the length thereof. Such means involve for example the use of a friction buckle. They may be secured to the jacket by sewing for example, or by welding or by bonding. In the case of plastic strips, the latter may remain independent of the jacket.
  • the support straps and the horizontal strap may engage with each other in any appropriate manner. A preferred manner that has given good results comprises forming with each end of the support straps a belt loop in which the horizontal strap slides.
  • the flexible component may be made out of the same material and/or the same fabric as the inner surface of the jacket. It may alternatively be made out of a more resistant material than said inner surface, for example a similar material but of more significant thickness.
  • the front and rear faces of the jacket, the straps and/or the cords may be made, separately, with flexible thin surface materials, possibly woven, plaited, knitted or non- woven, selected from at least one of the following materials: cotton, jute, linen, wool, viscose, polyamide, polyester, polyacrylonitrile polyurethane, elastane and natural or artificial rubber. They may comprise a plurality of these materials in association or in a mix.
  • the straps or cords of the object securing means surround the support straps and be rigidly connected thereto.
  • a securing method is preferably selected from sewing, welding, bonding or self-adhesive strips.
  • the invention also relates to the use of the inventive jacket to carry in optimum safe conditions long objects selected, non-restrictively, from planks, tubes, booms, masts, oars, standards, hockey sticks, monoskis and cross-country or alpine skis, ski poles etc. Excellent results have been obtained when carrying a pair of alpine skis and their associated poles.
