Definitions

  • the present invention relates generally protective equipment for the human body.
  • a protective vest particularly used by law enforcement, conventionally includes a certain number of arrangements such as padding, etc., intended to protect its wearer against blows, shocks or projectiles.
  • This particular protection is generally provided by additional padding of the vest in these regions.
  • the present invention aims to overcome the limitations state of the art.
  • It aims more specifically to propose an element joint protection that provides protection particularly effective against knocks, while being light and while only minimally impeding the movements of the limb, arm or leg, of the wearer.
  • the present invention firstly provides a protective element, in particular anti-knock for clothing, intended to be placed in a zone of activation of said garment, characterized in that it consists of a shell of rounded contours, generally convex on the outside by being bent according to two orthogonal profiles, and in this that two opposite end regions of the element are suitable for being articulated on the garment.
  • a protective set in particular anti-impact for clothing, characterized in that it comprises at least two elements as defined above, suitable for mounting on the garment articulated in adjacent regions and so that an element partially covers a neighboring element and, where applicable, be covered partially by another neighboring element.
  • the invention also provides a garment of protection, characterized in that it comprises, in at minus a joint region of the human body, a protective element or protective assembly such as defined above.
  • the articulation region of the human body is chosen preferably among the shoulder, elbow and knee.
  • this garment can advantageously include a protective element as defined above, articulated at the level of an elbow region, and possess at the level of an adjacent forearm region a shell of fixed and elongated forearm protection, profile transverse curved, covered at one end by said elbow protection element.
  • a shell-shaped protective element generally designated by reference 10, produced by molding of a plastic material such as 7-8 (to complete), preferably of uniform thickness of around 2 mm.
  • the element 10 has a rounded contour 11 of shape general elliptical, with a point very slightly marked at the top. It also has one side external generally convex in two cutting planes orthogonal.
  • Element 10 has a raised central region 13 relative to its peripheral region, this region central here with a generally contoured shape rectangular with rounded corners.
  • the elevation of the central region is substantially constant throughout its extent, that is to say that said central region follows a substantially constant distance the curvature that would have a smooth hull, without elevation.
  • the central region 13 extends laterally, from each side, by two equally raised appendages 14 having a transition without a slope break on the one hand with said central region 13, and on the other hand with the corresponding side end region 16 of the region peripheral.
  • the raised parts 13, 14 are connected with the peripheral region by a oblique wall 15 with rounded transitions, i.e. without sharp corners.
  • the two lateral end zones 16 are those corresponding to the major axis of the contour of the element 10.
  • Element 10 has at its two edges lateral delimiting said end zones, two small notches 12 of triangular shape.
  • the element 10 as described above is suitable for being attached to a garment, in a region thereof corresponding to a joint of the human body such that shoulder or elbow (case of a vest or the like) or knee (pants).
  • This fixing is done using rivets through orifices (not shown) formed, by example from molding, in the two end zones 16 of the element.
  • each element advantageously makes it possible to establish a space void between the inside of element 10 and the fabric of clothing.
  • This empty space is to increase the protection of the subject from blows, insofar as the blows or shocks received in this part central will not be applied directly to the body at impact right but spread all over the periphery of the element and therefore significantly attenuated.
  • the second object of this empty space is to allow, especially when the joint is unfolded (for example the arm is stretched out), to partially accommodate the folds of the fabric that may form below the elements 10, for the benefit of ease of use.
  • notches 12 provided at the lateral ends of the element 10 take the place positional markers to place precisely item 10 on the garment when fixation.
  • Figure 5 illustrates another type of use of a protective element 10 according to the invention.
  • a single protective element 10 is mounted by 20 rivets at the elbow, while the forearm part clothing V (or simply a cuff suitable for be attached to the arm) has another shell 30, in general shape of cylinder portion, made of preferably in the same material as item 10 and sewn peripherally on the forearm part of the garment or of the cuff.
  • the forearm element 30 has a central part in extra thickness 32 with wings 33, and part peripheral 31 hugging the fabric.
  • the element 10 is mounted on the garment V or the cuff so that it covers partially the corresponding end of the element 30.
  • the dimensions of the element are preferably, for compared to a front view of around 15 centimeters in width, 11 to 12 centimeters in height and 5 to 6 centimeters in depth overall, while the region raised central 13, 14 extends about 4 to 6 mm by in relation to its peripheral region.
  • the articulated fixing of the elements 10 on a garment can be done, instead of riveting described above, by stitching using a wire sufficiently robust.
  • the material of element 10 is chosen. depending on the application considered. We choose to preferably a material resistant not only to impacts (shots, projectiles, etc.), but also to weapons sharp (knife, etc.).
  • clothing not only vest-type clothing, pants, etc ..., but also any accessory protection such as arm cuff, leg warmer, etc.
