Definitions
- the present invention relates to a reflective harness, which provides new essential characteristics and notable advantages with respect to the means that are known and used for similar purposes under current state of the art.
- the invention proposes the development of a harness capable of being used by a person for identification under any circumstances, during the day or the night, by virtue of the reflective nature of the material of which it is made, being designed, furthermore, in such a way that it can be worn comfortably by the user, with the use of portions configured like straps for its fixing to the shoulders, and with the use of portions capable of being fixed like a belt, and therefore capable of being adapted to the characteristics of each user.
- the harness includes a substantially sized portion, capable of being positioned on the back of the user, for easy visualisation of the latter regardless of the sports or other activity being practised at any time.
- the field of application of the invention is within the industrial sector dedicated to the production of identification objects and personal security.
- the current technology uses a type of vest, made with reflective material, through which its user is identified when illuminated by the lights of a vehicle, for example.
- This type of vest although meeting the purpose for which it was developed, does have some disadvantages.
- the use of this garment is not always comfortable for the user, and furthermore, in times of high temperatures, its use becomes quite difficult to endure, which frequently leads the user to remove it.
- the safety characteristics intended to be provided by the use of the garment are not then guaranteed.
- the existing signalling vests tend to incorporate reflective straps directed horizontally or vertically, which means that, under certain conditions, and especially at night, they can be confused at times with horizontal or vertical signals that already exist on public thoroughfares, with the resulting risk for the user.
- This invention has been proposed fundamentally to provide a means by which these current signalling and identification disadvantages can be effectively resolved, and proposes the creation of a harness, capable of being applied to the user directly, in a way that is easy to use, adapts comfortably to the body and incorporates different portions of reflective material that allow rapid visualisation of the wearer without any risk for them.
- These reflective portions are capable of being positioned at the back and chest of the user, and are shaped as a surface piece, straps and belt.
- the fitting of the belt is carried out with a rapid retention device, such as Velcro or similar, which permits an instantly comfortable adaptation to the characteristics of each user.
- the harness of the invention can be shaped for adaptation to a backpack, bag, or other object, all maintaining the same constructive philosophy and the same operational effectiveness as in the case of the preferred embodiment previously described.
- FIG. 1 a simplified representation of a reflective harness can be seen, shaped in a way that presents portion 1 for rear positioning, of substantial size, and which is preferably shaped as a triangle, although it could take any other form capable of simulating a sign of danger of the type used for signposting on roads and similar.
- This rear portion 1 is surrounded by a perimeter border of reflective material, indicated with reference number 2, and with a striped surface in order to distinguish it from the rest of the piece.
- the strap and belt portions extend, in the conventional way, from portion 1.
- These sections also have mutual binding portions, joined at the opposing faces, preferably achieved by way of Velcro straps, as indicated in reference 6.
- the harness of the invention is a simple conception and uses a general configuration similar to the conventional type, with the special features of the back piece 1 and the incorporation of portions made of reflective material.
- the harness can be adjusted perfectly to the body of the user, with the aid of the elastic portions 4, as described in simple terms in Figures 2 and 3 of the drawings.
- a user 7 appears, shown from the back and front, respectively, with the aim of facilitating a graphical appreciation of the operative position of each of the portions mentioned.
- the triangular piece 1 is located in an approximately central position on the back of the user 7, and the strap portions are made to pass over the shoulders of the user, while the belt portions are tightened to the waist of the user, as has been said with the aid of the elastic sections 4.
- Figure 3 shows the user with the belt adjusted to the their physical characteristics, so that the reflective sections 5 have frontal continuity, once the Velcro strap 6 has been attached to the one attached to the internal face of the opposite end.
- the harness of the invention allows for comfortable use, at any time of the year, while its operational ability is greater than that of the vests of current state of the art.
- the form adopted by the back portion 1 means that once visualised it is quickly associated with a pedestrian, with a dangerous situation, or with any other situation that requires special attention. With its use, sportspeople, cyclists, professionals or other people who need to enter and/or remain in the road, are much safer than with the use of current methods.
- the harness has the additional advantage that it is made of foldable material and can be easily folded and kept in any place when not in use.
