Definitions
- the present invention consists of a suit with integrated safety elements for carrying out maritime activities, whether in the field of artisanal, industrial, merchant marine, salmon farms, oil platforms, water sports or recreational activities.
- Document GB 557220 describes a rescue suit comprising a hood, a mesh and pants, all of the above forming a single piece of waterproof material, and comprising a reinforced front access opening, which is closed by a zipper.
- the hood has an opening whose edge is formed of elastic material that incorporates protruding flaps that are pressed when closing the zipper.
- the suit has an inner lining and also a floating lining located on flotation panels of the chest, and similarly on the knees. A fixed pad and an inflatable pad are provided in the neck area, so that the user, when falling into the water, floats face up.
- a suit that includes a ballast in the region of the legs and lower and upper air chambers which are connected to each other by ducts. If the wearer of the suit drops the water, the ballast between the legs of the suit causes air to flow from the lower chamber to the upper chamber. If the user were unconscious, the movement described above is performed automatically, placing the person upright, with the head out of the water.
- the document ES 2013319 (A6) describes a thermal and safety suit made of a waterproof material on its exterior, and which is composed of a second layer welded to the previous layer by different points to generate watertight compartments that allow the buoyancy of the suit.
- the suit comprises between the two layers a lifeguard located behind the hood, which takes air through a rubber tube with a non-return valve.
- the survival suit described by CN 202414135 comprises a GPS system, which in turn comprises a life jacket formed by a surface layer, a liner and a flotation block.
- the surface layer of the life jacket is provided with a cover piece, where the periphery of said piece is connected to the surface layer.
- a GPS device which is formed by a water battery and a GPS chip, and when it comes into contact with water, the battery can generate power and provide power to the GPS chip, for later costume user rescue.
- Document EP2589414 describes a survival suit comprising an upper body area tied to a person's trunk, and a mooring device that is located inside the suit.
- a locking belt is tied to the mooring device designed so that the locking belt is tied to the inside of the body area.
- a coupling element penetrates the suit in the body area, which is coupled with the strap and with a safety element such that a support connection is disposed between the strap and the safety element.
- the present invention consists of a work suit for maritime activities with integrated automatic buoyancy.
- the suit preferably comprises a planter as an inner layer and a buoyancy layer that is integrated into the planter.
- the buoyancy layer is protected in the upper interior of the planter, fulfilling the important role of being a passive safety system that is only activated in an emergency, that is, it does not interrupt the activity of the users, until its use is necessary .
- Another important point is that using planters is part of the fishermen's behavior habits, whether handmade or industrial. So being a gardener with integrated buoyancy, this suit is very easy to use so you should not learn to use something new, making it part of your daily life to be permanently protected during the activity at sea.
- this suit includes an outer layer with a design that allows it to expand when the buoyancy system is activated, and thus enable the volume of air within the lifeguard to flow freely.
- Figure 1 shows the suit according to an embodiment of the invention.
- Figure 2 shows the planter of the suit according to a preferred embodiment of the invention.
- Figure 3 shows the reinforcement system between the legs acting as a harness according to a preferred embodiment of the invention.
- Figure 4 shows a scheme of a user with the suit that acts in case of emergency.
- the safety suit (1) which allows automatic buoyancy when the user falls into the water, comprises at least two parts: a vest (2) with a commercial buoyancy device which is activated when it comes into contact with water and an inner suit or gardener (3), as shown in Figure 2. Additionally, the gardener acts in conjunction with a parka or layer of water that goes over it, allowing it to expand while releasing the lifeguard inside of the gardener.
- the suit (1) comprises an outer layer that welcomes and protects an internal or buoyancy layer that is part of the life jacket. Inside it includes an automatic inflation system.
- the buoyancy layer must be protected inside the top of the planter (3) to act as a passive safety system that is activated in case of emergency. Said passive security system goes unnoticed during the user's daily activity.
- the lifeguard joins the gardener (2) that when passing through the middle of the legs, it acts as a harness (4) as shown in Figure 3, preventing the lifeguard from separating from the body, which is not noticeable by the user and does not result in a nuisance to the normal performance of their daily work. Additionally, it allows an adequate position to float in case of an emergency.
- the position generated by the suit (1) when floating allows greater visibility since it multiplies the visible surface on the water.
- the position achieved by this suit (1) allows the person to have no need to move either legs or arms, which prevents the body from releasing the accumulated heat. This is essential when falling in seas with low temperatures, where it is crucial to avoid hypothermia. It also allows the individual from time to time to adopt a fetal position to further prevent the release of body heat.
- the gardener (3) of the suit (1) is provided with continuous fabric construction, without zipper, to avoid any water filtration during daily activity at sea.
- the planter (3) includes protections on the knees and thigh, to avoid the wear and tear of the daily work in a marine activity.
- the suit (1) further comprises a seat belt (5) preferably located in the central part of the suit, as required by the maritime authority to be able to lift a person in case of an accident.
- the suit comprises a plurality of reflective tapes to increase visibility, mainly located in the upper part of the suit, on the hip, so that they are visible by the person performing the search in case of emergency.
- the suit mainly comprises bright colors and easy visibility, which allows it to be easily located, given that color and the increased volume due to the buoyancy device incorporated in the suit.
