Description

[Detailed Description of the Invention] [Industrial field of application] The present invention relates to a life jacket which is in the shape of a vest and is mainly worn by crew members of small boats and those who enjoy yachts, canoeing, kayaking, etc. Is.

[Conventional technology]

Generally, as a life jacket worn by a crew member of a small boat or a person who enjoys yachts, canoes, kayaks, etc., a vest is often used, and appropriate buoyancy materials are provided on both sides of the front body and the back body. Has been done.

Since the life jacket above is not well ventilated, the wearer feels the heat in the summer and feels bothersome. There were many problems such as sometimes feeling cramped.

[Problems to be solved by the device]

Therefore, the problem to be solved by the present invention is to provide a life jacket that can solve all or some of the above problems.

[Means for solving the problem]

The present invention has been made for the purpose of solving the above-mentioned problems, and its constitution is a vest, and in a lifejacket in which appropriate buoyancy materials are internally provided on both front and back bodies of the vest, Alternatively, the front body is provided with one or a plurality of slits which are oriented vertically, obliquely, or horizontally, and the present invention is configured such that the slits can be opened and closed by fasteners. In some cases, a widening cloth is interposed between both sides of the slit.

[Action]

At least, if there are several slits vertically provided on the back body, ventilation will be improved and flexibility will be generated on the back to improve comfort, and the slit part will be widened when worn, so the same size It can be worn by people with obesity. However, in this case, when the sun is received on the back of the sun on a sunny day, sunburn remains and a striped sunburn remains. Therefore, in order to prevent this, a widening cloth is interposed between both sides of the slit.

In addition, by opening and closing the slit or the widening cloth with fasteners, it is possible to cope with high and low weather conditions, and by appropriately opening and closing the slits or the widening cloth with the fasteners, the comfort is improved. And it is possible to prevent sunburn.

On the other hand, when the slit is provided diagonally, it is almost the same as the case where it is provided vertically, but when it is provided laterally, there is no conformability depending on the wearer's physique, but ventilation is improved. In addition, since the wearer's forward movability is improved, it is particularly convenient for a crew member such as a cutter who often bends the upper body forward to wear it.

〔Example〕

 Next, an embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings.

FIG. 1 is a front view of a life jacket according to an example of the present invention, FIG. 2 is a rear view, FIG. 3 is a sectional view taken along the line AA of FIG. 2, and FIG. 4 is a view showing an embodiment of a slit portion. FIG. 4 is a diagram showing a state in which a slit is provided, b is a state in which the slit can be opened and closed by a fastener, and c is a state in which a widening cloth is attached between both sides of the slit.

1 to 3, 1 and 1 are front bodies, 2 is a rear body connected to the front bodies 1 and 1, and both bodies have a double structure, and a buoyant body f is provided inside. Yes, back body 2
The front body 1 is provided with three vertical slits 3, and the front body 1 is provided with two vertical slits 4.

5 is an arm passing portion, 6 is a fastener for opening and closing the front body 1,1
7 and 8 are belts for fixing to the wearer's body, and 9 is a reflective tape fixed to the chest of the front bodies 1 and 1 as necessary.

An example of the life jacket of the present invention is constructed by the above, and when this life jacket is worn, the buoyancy body f to be installed in the front body 1 and the back body 2 is divided, so that the front body and the back body are flexible when worn. Cause wear and improve wearability, and the slit
Since there are 3 and 4, inside and outside air is exchanged in these slits when it is hot in summer, etc., and ventilation is improved, so comfort is improved, and the slits can be freely adjusted according to the physique of the wearer. Since it can be opened and closed, it can be worn by both normal and obese persons, making it highly versatile.

Therefore, in order to prevent the sunburn in stripes due to the slits 3 and 4, if the fastener 10 is attached to the slit 3 so as to be openable and closable as shown in FIG. The degree of opening and closing of the slit 3 can be appropriately adjusted by 10 to prevent sunburn, and in order to improve versatility and prevent sunburn, as shown in FIG. 11 may be attached.

In the above embodiment, mainly the back body 2 and the front body 1
In the above, we have described an example in which slits 3 and 4 are provided vertically.
The present invention is not limited to this, and the slits may be provided obliquely or laterally.

When provided in a diagonal direction, there is substantially the same action and effect as in the case where it is provided in a vertical orientation, but when provided in a horizontal orientation,
Although it has less versatility as described above, it improves ventilation and improves the forward mobility of the wearer, so it is especially worn by workers such as yachts and cutters who often bend their upper body forward. Suitable for

[Effect of device]

INDUSTRIAL APPLICABILITY Since the present invention is as described above, it is extremely useful as a life jacket worn by crew members of small boats, yachts, canoes, kayaks, and the like.
