Definitions

  • the invention herein refers to an impact absorbing device, the structure of wich enables avoiding damage to fragile objects during a fall or knocks during its transport and/or use.
  • a fifth protection gadget forming part of the prior art , can be observed in patent US 5.368.159, it consists of a protection device for remote controls made of rubber material, allowing for lengthwise extension to enable its use on different element lengths.
  • this objective has been performed by an impact absorbing device of the type formed by pneumatic chambers and that contain the element to protected, the device comprising a first pneumatic chamber to absorb impacts in communication with a second chamber and a top flexible cover that rests on the first chamber.
  • the device possesses an optimum impact absorbing structure because of its internal channel conformation. These channels contain the fluid which gives it protection structure for fragile elements such as electronic plates ( containing an electronic circuit), calculators, measuring instruments or any other kind or apparatus or devices sensitive to impact or any other element that is wanted to be protected .
  • the proposed invention has two pneumatic chambers ( side and bottom) that can be filled with air from outside through a one and only valve or using carbon dioxide contained in an ampoule situated inside one of the chambers of the device, preferably the side chamber.
  • the impact absorbing device gives more protection against impacts on falling or other cases. This extra protection is due to a firm pressing and it protects the fragile element totally on sides and base.
  • the Velcro® or similar one in our invention allows taking out the protected element without having to take out fluid from the chambers. This is preferred in case there is no valve to decompress the chambers.
  • the base impact absorbing chamber will give total protection of the base of the fragile element to be protected against knocks and falls.
  • these impact herein absorbing chambers can be filled through an external valve , by the rupture of an ampoule containing carbon dioxide or a similar gas, or by an internal generation of gases when two chemical elements are mixed or put into contact.
  • Another prior invention document is the publishing of the European Application EP 0708462a1, of this inventor, where an inflatable protector with some similar characteristics and other far different ones; these last enable the obtaining protector device much more efficient for the function for which it was designed.
  • the EP 0708463 A1 mentions a protector device with an inflatable chamber that surrounds the sides of the element to be protected and to flexible sheets, top and bottom that allow for the containing of the mentioned element.
  • the conformation of the bottom chamber is made up of two internal chambers ( references 10 and 11) that give more impact absorption regarding the top flexible cover in the European invention, it is fixed, not being able to be removed so the device has to be deflated when the element is to be removed from inside (for example: changing batteries of same ).
  • Velcro® material can be observed in the protector device in the top cover, to be able to undo same and use the device without cover or top protection.
  • the impact absorbing device is made up of 1 side camber and another bottom one that will be filled with air, carbon dioxide or gases from a chemical reaction. In the case of filling from outside there will be a corresponding valve.
  • sheet 3 allows the use of the contained element without the necessity of taking it out of the protector device.
  • This sheet 3 can be fixed ( soldering its perimeter sides to the impact absorbing device) having on one of its sides a auto-adhesive , Velcro® or similar which will allow the element to be removed without having to decompress the chambers ( one or two chambers).
  • Figures 5 and 6 show the element to be protected 7 inside the impact absorbing device.
  • Figure 7 shows a top view of the device of the proposed invention in which chamber 1 ( side protection of the element contained) bottom chamber 2 ( base protection of the contained element.
  • chamber 1 side protection of the element contained
  • bottom chamber 2 base protection of the contained element.
  • the communication opening connecting chamber 1 and 2 the arrows "a" ( chamber 1) and “b” ( chamber 2) identify the circulation of air or gases of the chambers at the moment of its expansion.
  • the impact absorbing device is filled in its external valve modality by the circulation of air or another gas according to arrows "a" that will ensure the filling of chamber 1 first which makes up the sides and the chamber 2 that conforms the base of the device.
  • the fluid circulates in chamber 1., it goes through hole “c” and it goes to fill chamber 2 as per arrows "b".
  • hole "c" is positioned on the opposite side in relation to the entrance hole in the first chamber.
  • the Impact absorbing device of the present invention is of the type made up of pneumatic chambers designed to protect fragile elements such as calculators, electronic plates ( circuits), measuring instruments, remote controls and a the similar ones. It consist of a first impact absorbing chamber at the bottom and a top flexible cover which rests on the mentioned first chamber .
  • the chambers can be inflated through an entrance valve for exterior air, carbon dioxide gas, or gases generated through a chemical reaction produced by reacting elements contained inside the first chamber.
  • the top flexible cover can have a Velcro® type clasp or similar.
