Definitions

  • a protective jacket can be provided with at least one through opening, which is preferably arranged on a front side, for passing a line through from an inside to an outside of the protective jacket.
  • a safety or retaining strap below the protective jacket which can be connected to the safety rope.
  • This securing or holding belt can be designed differently, for example in a simple case a simple chest belt to be placed around the chest with only one belt or in a more developed case a seat belt or a 5-point belt with a seat belt and chest belt.
  • the safety belt or tether is often put on over the protective jacket. This means that the belt is fully exposed to the thermal and mechanical loads during use and you can easily get caught on objects with the loops, straps and connecting elements of the belt. This also constricts the protective jacket and there is poor air circulation around the heated indoor air, which is saturated with sweat, to be pumped up over the collar over the collar or down over the end of the jacket out of the jacket.
  • the safety line or rope When the user is secured, the safety line or rope is passed through the lower hip opening of the protective jacket so that it can be connected to a safety point.
  • the hip opening means the opening of the protective jacket through which the hips and legs of the user usually extend out of the protective jacket. If the safety line is relaxed, this is usually not a problem. Since the protective jacket can move or warp when the safety rope is tensioned, it is problematic in other situations. Thus, on the one hand, the user's freedom of movement is hindered and wearing comfort is reduced, and on the other hand, the thermal, chemical and physical protective effect of the protective jacket is impaired.
  • a passage opening is provided in the protective jacket, the line can be better guided through it.
  • the protective effect is impaired by this opening, since pollutants, fire, water or objects can pass through the protective jacket.
  • the object of the invention is thus to provide protective clothing which can be adapted to different situations and which provides a high level of safety for a user, but enables better comfort, better adjustability and the greatest possible mobility in different operational situations.
  • the through opening is formed between a first cover flap and a second cover flap, that the through opening can be brought into a position of use in which the line is passed through the through opening, and that the through opening can be brought into a flat position, in which the line is not passed through, and that in the flat position the first cover flap covers the second cover flap arranged opposite it.
  • the belt By arranging the belt directly on the body and under the protective jacket, it is also protected mechanically and thermally by the protective jacket, which is advantageous.
  • cover flap or the cover flaps are bent aside and the path through the passage opening is released.
  • the cover flaps are placed around the lead through, which leaves as little opening as possible through which pollutants, flames or objects can penetrate the protective jacket.
  • the cover flaps are not pushed apart by the line, which means that they are at least partially superimposed and thus lead to a flatter shape than if the cover flaps are bent away from the material plane of the protective jacket in the area of the cover flaps by the line.
  • the passage opening can be positioned in different areas of the protective jacket. It is advantageous if it is arranged in such a way that the protective jacket is warped as little as possible by the safety line when the safety line is taut. It can be useful to arrange the passage opening in the area of a connection point of the safety belt or tether so that the safety line can be led outside the protective jacket immediately after the connection point.
  • overlapping means that the cover flaps are arranged one above the other in such a way that an overlap area is provided between the open edges of the cover flaps.
  • the cover flaps are connected to the protective jacket on at least one side, with an open edge on at least one other side which is not connected to the protective jacket or is at least detachable. If two cover flaps are arranged in such a way that an overlap area is formed between the open edges, a complex labyrinth can be created that is particularly tight.
  • the passage opening extends at least through the outer fabric of the protective jacket and can also extend through further layers.
  • the protective jacket usually has several layers, preferably an outer fabric, and a moisture barrier. In this case, openings in the area of the through opening can also be provided in these layers.
  • the moisture barrier is a layer which is impermeable to water at least in sections and thus prevents the penetration of water.
  • the outer fabric is usually a mechanically stable material, which usually provides physical protection against external influences such as fire, edges or the like.
  • the outer fabric is usually the outermost layer, and it can be specially coated on its outside.
  • the protective jacket can also have further layers which can fulfill different tasks.
  • one or more thermal insulating layers can be arranged between the outer fabric and the moisture barrier or within the moisture barrier.
  • a lining layer which increases wearing comfort, can preferably be provided on the inside.
  • Directional information such as inside or outside means that the protective jacket has an inside, namely that which is directed towards the user in the intended position.
  • the protective jacket also has an outer side which, in the intended position, points away from the user.
  • the protective jacket has a fourth cover flap, if the second cover flap is arranged between the first and fourth cover flap and if the fourth cover flap covers the second cover flap in the flat position and if the fourth cover flap preferably together with a fifth cover flap has one Forms a longitudinal slot, which preferably extends parallel to a longitudinal axis of the protective jacket and that the longitudinal axis extends from a collar end to a hip end. An even better sealing of the through opening is thus achieved.
  • the second and fourth cover flap can also be brought into a position of use in which the line is passed between the second and fourth cover flap.
  • the second cover flap together with a third cover flap forms a longitudinal slot which preferably extends parallel to a longitudinal axis of the protective jacket and that the longitudinal axis extends from a collar end to a hip end.
  • the second and third cover flaps are preferably arranged at the same height in the section through the protective jacket. This results in an opening which is covered by the first cover flap in the flat position and can be pulled apart to make room for the line.
  • cover flaps are arranged on the side of the fourth cover flap facing away from the second cover flap, with each cover flap covering the cover flap directly adjacent to it - in the direction of the fourth cover flap. This allows a labyrinth to be formed from many cover flaps, which further impede the passage of foreign matter.
  • Each cover flap is preferably arranged on its own cut part which is connected to the rest of the protective jacket via seams or other connections such as welds.
  • the protective jacket has a zipper for closing the protective jacket and that in the area of the zipper the Through opening is arranged.
  • the passage opening is preferably a maximum of 10 cm, preferably a maximum of 5 cm, from the zipper, measured from the edge of the passage opening which is closest to the zipper in the flat position.
  • the protective jacket has a zipper for closing the protective jacket, that at least one cover strip for covering the zipper is arranged in the area of the zipper, and that the through opening is arranged on the cover strip.
  • the through opening does not have to be arranged on the main part of the protective jacket, which normally has a complex, multi-layer structure. The structure is thus simpler and the arrangement of the through opening there is simpler.
  • the cover strip can have only one outer fabric and a moisture barrier or also several layers.
  • an auxiliary opening is arranged at the level of the passage opening on a carrier strip carrying a zipper part of the zipper.
  • the auxiliary opening is preferably arranged on that side of the zip fastener on which the through opening is also arranged.
  • auxiliary opening can be closed, preferably by an auxiliary zipper. This allows the auxiliary opening to be closed when it is not needed.
  • a through opening is arranged in a chest area of the protective jacket.
  • the chest area is meant an area of the protective jacket which is arranged in the intended position on the chest of the user.
  • a through opening is arranged in a stomach area of the protective jacket.
  • the abdominal area thus means an area of the protective jacket which is arranged in the intended position on the belly of the user, that is to say at the level at which the waistband of protective trousers is approximately.
  • the passage opening used can be selected depending on the choice of the connection location with the safety belt or tether.
  • At least one cover flap, preferably all cover flaps are abrasion-resistant on at least one side. It can be provided that the at least one cover flap, preferably all cover flaps, have an abrasion-resistant coating on at least one side.
  • the cover flaps are preferably abrasion-resistant on at least those sides which are directed towards another cover flap.
  • At least the first and the second cover flap are coated in an abrasion-resistant manner on at least the side facing the inside.
  • an abrasion protection layer can be arranged there.
  • At least one cover flap preferably at least the fourth and fifth cover flap or the second and third cover flap, particularly preferably all cover flaps, have a moisture barrier.
  • the moisture barrier is preferably arranged on the side of the cover flap or cover flaps facing the inside.
  • cover flaps are fireproof.
  • the cover flap can be coated refractory and / or made of refractory material.
  • the protective jacket has at least one pocket which is arranged in the area of the passage opening, preferably has a pocket opening which points towards the passage opening. It is preferably provided that the through opening is arranged between the pocket and the zip fastener.
  • the pocket opening can be closed, preferably using a Velcro fastener.
  • protective clothing is provided with at least one pair of trousers, at least one protective jacket and at least one safety or retaining strap, the protective jacket being designed according to the invention.
  • safety belt or retaining belt describes a belt or belt system that can be placed around the body and is used to secure the user.
  • the safety belt or tether is preferably at least partially close to the body and thus creates a good connection to it.
  • it can have connecting elements or connecting means for connecting to safety ropes, lines and the like, for example carabiners or connecting rings or connecting straps.
  • a simple example of a safety belt or tether would be a tether according to the European standard EN 358. This is a waist or chest belt with lanyards. Better securing can be achieved by using a safety belt or tether with at least one seat belt and at least one chest belt according to EN 361.
  • the protective clothing has an additional line, if the additional line can be connected to the safety or retaining strap, preferably to the seat belt or the chest strap, and has at least one hooking ring and at least one safety carabiner.
  • the protective clothing has a pull-out cord which has a gripping tab at one end and a connecting tab for connecting to the safety carabiner at the opposite end.
  • the safety carabiner can also be connected to appropriate lines, etc. to secure it. This pull-out line can be used to pull out the additional line more easily when the additional line is stowed in the pocket.
  • the additional line has a connecting carabiner and that the hooking ring is arranged between the connecting carabiner and the safety carabiner. This means that the additional line can remain stowed in the jacket where it does not interfere until it is needed. By pulling on the gripping tab, the additional line can then be pulled out via a pull-out line and used.
  • the grip tab is preferably not connected to the jacket so as to transmit the weight of the user, since this would unnecessarily stress the jacket and the securing via the chest strap is sufficient.
  • the additional line has a fall protection device.
  • the hooking ring can be used to secure yourself to a safety rope, while the safety carabiner can be used to secure other people.
  • the invention also relates to protective clothing, in particular for firefighters, with a protective jacket according to the invention, with trousers and a seat belt, the seat belt being arranged within the trousers, the seat belt having at least one hip belt and at least two leg loops connected to the hip belt in a force-transmitting manner and wherein the protective clothing has a chest strap, the chest strap has at least one left and at least one right shoulder girdle.
  • Protective clothing is usually a complex clothing system that has to withstand extreme loads.
  • protective clothing for fire brigade members must withstand not only mechanical but also strong thermal loads.
  • the safety of the user i.e. usually a firefighter, must be guaranteed against a possible fall from heights. Since they usually have to go into dangerous environments themselves in the course of an operation, safety systems to protect against a possible fall from heights are just as important for the user as self-rescue from heights with a permanently available rescue system. For self-rescue from great heights, a permanently available rescue system is necessary for the user.
  • Such safety systems should lengthen the dressing process as little as possible, and also be ready for use as quickly and easily as possible during use, not hinder the work of the fire fighters and enable the fastest possible response to the operating conditions.
  • the CA 1,286,050 C shows protective clothing that has a multi-layer structure so that it has a thermally insulating effect and is usually equipped with a waterproof, breathable membrane. This protects the user from thermal loads and the ingress of moisture.
  • the user has to move into a raised position where there is a risk of falling or flee from such a position, for example through a window or in a position where there is a risk of falling, such as securing against falling on a ladder, or having to rescue himself with a rope , the protective clothing does not offer any possibility of securing the user from the resulting dangers of falling or falling.
  • the fire brigade has usually used an external fire brigade belt according to DIN 14927. This belt is usually described in detail in country-specific fire brigade regulations.
  • the fire brigade safety belt enables the fire brigade emergency services to protect themselves from the risk of falling with the lanyard (safety rope) by holding or holding back.
  • the standard is therefore based on the fire brigade service regulations Securing fire service personnel as well as securing and moving loads in emergency situations with the aid of the fire line according to DIN 14920 "Fire line - requirements, testing, treatment”.
  • DIN 14927 applies together with DIN EN 358 on "Personal protective equipment for holding functions and to prevent falls - safety belts and lanyards for safety belts” for fire brigade safety belts (FH), type A and type B, with two-pin buckles . Their requirements and tests are specified, taking into account fire-brigade-specific emergency characteristics.
  • the US 6,427,252 B1 discloses a combined belt system which has both leg loops and shoulder girdles, as well as a belt around the torso of the user in the chest area. Together, these belts only secure the user if they are all properly worn. Such a belt system restricts freedom of movement and is difficult to put on, but secures the user sufficiently to enable them to abseil.
  • the shoulder girdles are connected to the trousers with suspenders. This enables an easily adjustable connection to the trousers and additional suspenders for the trousers are superfluous. As a result, the user is forced to put on the complete belt system first and then put on the pants. This is very time consuming.
  • the belt system has to be put on completely, even if situations only require securing the position, i.e. securing in a raised position such as on a ladder, in which a securing device that is not quite as secure but offers more freedom of movement would be sufficient.
  • the height of the pants is difficult to adjust and depends on the height of the hip belt. Also is through the solid Connection between hip belt and pants reduces the air exchange between the interior of the pants via the waistband. This reduces the ability of the pants to adapt to rapid movements and changes in position.
  • the object of the invention is to provide protective clothing which can be adapted to different situations and which provides a high level of safety for a user, but allows better comfort, adjustability and the greatest possible mobility.
  • the chest belt has at least one left and at least one right armpit belt, the shoulder girdle and armpit belt being connected to one another, that the chest belt is detachably or operationally non-detachably connected to the seat belt and that the chest belt has at least one suspender section connected to the pants.
  • the shoulder girdle and armpit girdle are preferably also adjustable in length.
  • a good height safety of the user is made possible. If the user is on a ladder, for example, he can connect the seat belt to the ladder using a safety line so that he cannot fall off. In addition, additional escape routes are more easily possible. For example, a quick connection to a rappelling device is made possible. A major advantage here is that these connections can be established easily and quickly, since time-optimized action is of the greatest importance, especially during operations.
  • a safety harness that is always ready for use is also available with the chest strap in connection with the seat harness.
  • a fall arrest system can be instantly connected to the fall arrest system.
  • the arrangement within the trousers ensures a sufficiently secure connection with the user. At the same time, it is quick and easy to get dressed and put on.
  • the trousers can be put on together with the seat belt that is arranged therein and is already connected to it. This shortens the dressing time.
  • the chest strap preferably has a front side and a rear side, as seen by the user when he is wearing the chest strap as intended.
  • the shoulder girdle and armpit girdle are preferably connected to one another at the back of the chest girdle.
  • the detachable connection of the chest strap with the seat strap enables the chest strap to be put on simply and thus faster, which can subsequently be connected to the seat strap in a force-transmitting manner.
  • This can be solved preferably via plug connections.
  • the releasable connection or releasable connections is preferably arranged on the front side so that the user can close and release the connection quickly and independently.
  • force-transmitting connection is meant a connection via which at least a substantial part of the weight of the user of the protective clothing can be derived.
  • the protective clothing can be used without a lot of effort without a chest strap when it is not needed.
  • the detachable connection between the chest strap and seat strap is separated for this.
  • suspenders can be attached to the pants, which are led from the front of the pants over the shoulders of the user to the back of the pants.
  • the trousers preferably have connecting sections for suspenders.
  • the connecting sections of the trousers for connection to the suspender sections can also serve as such connecting sections for the suspenders.
  • the seat belt can also be used to secure, in particular to secure the position of the user, which requires more freedom of movement for the user.
  • the protective clothing can thus be easily adapted to different situations.
  • the seat belt has at least one hip belt and at least two leg loops, it can be carried comfortably but nevertheless safely.
  • the hip belt means a belt which extends around the torso of the user in the worn state, is arranged at the level of the hip or waist of the user and which can also take on the function of a retaining belt.
  • At least one leg loop is intended for the right leg and at least one for the left leg.
  • the seat belt is fixed at at least three points, the hip and the two legs. This enables an easy to create and secure connection.
  • the protective clothing has a chest strap with a front side and a rear side, which is connected to the seat belt.
  • the front side and the rear side can be designed to be identical or different.
  • a chest strap with a seat strap By combining a chest strap with a seat strap, a 5-point fixation of the user can be achieved, which represents a particularly secure connection.
  • the chest strap has at least one left and at least one right shoulder girdle and at least one left and at least one right armpit girdle, the shoulder girdle and armpit belts are connected to each other at the back of the chest belt. As a result, the chest strap can be particularly securely attached to the user over the shoulders of the user.
  • the chest strap can essentially completely absorb the weight of the trousers without the need for the seat strap.
  • the seat belt particularly in combination with the seat belt, however, comprehensive securing of the user is possible, who cannot fall out of the belt system.
  • the chest strap is connected to the trousers at the rear via at least one suspender section, a stable connection between the chest strap and trousers can thus be established.
  • the braces section can only be made short and parts of the chest strap interact with the braces section. This enables the weight of the trousers to be transferred directly to the chest strap, which is easily adjustable and adjustable.
  • the brace sections themselves can also be easily adjusted in length. This means that the seat belt is no longer necessary to hold the trousers, which means that the connection between the trousers and the seat belt can be made weaker and thus allows more freedom of movement. This means that classic suspenders are no longer necessary here, which lead from the front of the trousers over the shoulders to the back.
  • the suspender section takes on their function much more by being connected to the trousers via at least one connection point and transferring their weight directly to the shoulders of the user. In the case described, this is achieved in that the chest strap, which is well connected to the user's shoulders via the shoulder girdle and armpit girdle, is connected to the suspender section.
  • braces section are at least partially elastic.
  • the seat belt is connected to the trousers in addition to the indirect connection via the suspender section.
  • the connection of the seat belt to the trousers does not have to be designed in such a way that it transfers the weight of the user or the weight. Since the weight force is applied directly to the seat belt when the seat belt is loaded, for example when abseiling, no such connection with the trousers is necessary.
  • the trousers are held in place by the suspender section, so that the weight of the trousers does not have to be transferred directly to the seat belt, but rather hangs on the shoulders of the user.
  • the protective clothing has inner pants that are arranged inside the seat belt. Threading the legs into the seat belt can be made easier with inner pants. While the trousers mainly provide mechanical and thermal protection, the inner trousers accelerate the dressing process.
  • the inner pants have two inner pants legs and that each inner pants leg is arranged within at least one leg loop. This enables particularly quick dressing. The risk of not guiding a leg through one of the leg loops by inappropriately pulling it on is prevented because the leg is automatically passed through the leg loop when it is inserted into the leg of the inner trousers. This prevents tangling or incorrect or incorrect application.
  • the inner pants are preferably connected to the seat belt.
  • the connection does not have to be designed in such a way that the weight of the user can be transmitted.
  • This connection can also only be sufficient to hold the trouser belt in a defined position to the inner trousers in order to enable them to be put on.
  • the connection is preferably releasable in order to simplify maintenance of the seat belt and cleaning of the inner pants.
  • tabs or loops through which the seat belt, for example the hip belt can be threaded can be provided in the inner pants.
  • the inner trousers can be connected to the trousers in the hip area of the trousers, preferably releasably connected and particularly preferably connected via a zip fastener.
  • This is particularly advantageous because trousers, seat belts and inner trousers can be stored as a cohesive structure and put on when needed. This results in an embodiment that is particularly easy to put on, since essentially two holes for the legs are visible to the user - which are lined with the pants on the outside and the inner pants on the inside. He no longer needs to worry about the leg loops, as these are automatically brought into the correct position.
  • a detachable connection is particularly advantageous for cleaning and maintenance, a zip fastener system having proven to be particularly simple, inexpensive and practical.
  • connection between pants and inner pants is preferably established in the waistband area of the pants, particularly preferably at least over a large part of the waistband. It is also advantageous if at least parts of the hip belt of the seat belt are below the connection. It is based on an intended use position in which the waistband of the trousers is at the top and the trouser legs are at the bottom. In other words, at least the hip belt is at least partially covered by the inner pants when it is put on.
  • the trousers and at least one inner trouser leg are detachably connected to one another, preferably via a zipper between the inner trouser leg and a trouser leg of the trousers.
  • the connection is particularly preferably arranged at the end of the inner trouser leg facing away from the hip area, that is to say in the area of the thigh. This also prevents the inner pants from being laid or creased.
  • the chest strap and the seat strap are connected to one another in a weight-transmitting manner only on the front side.
  • weight transferring is meant that a substantial part of the user's weight can be transferred between the chest strap and seat belt via the connection and that this connection can transfer forces to essential parts when the seat belt or chest strap is loaded, for example when abseiling or falling.
  • connection points preferably being designed as connecting rings.
  • a possible design made of plastic is particularly flexible and resistant.
  • connection points are connected to the seat belt via releasable buckle connections.
  • a secure, force-transmitting but releasable connection can be established between the seat belt and the chest belt.
  • the buckle connections - if present - are preferably opened and the chest strap is connected to the seat belt or the trousers, for example, via a non-weight-transferring connection.
  • the legs are preferably first put in the trousers and thus through the leg loops, and then the chest strap is put on. Then the buckle connections can be closed.
  • the trousers have at least one first opening in the hip area and the seat belt has at least one seat karabiner loop that can be passed through the first opening, i.e. a holding eyelet for restraint systems and workplace positioning.
  • the seat carabiner loop can be optimally attached to the seat belt without distorting the trousers when the safety loop is loaded.
  • the protective clothing can have a jacket which has at least one second opening in a chest / stomach area, and the seat belt or the chest belt has at least one chest carabiner loop that can be passed through the second opening.
  • the chest / stomach area means the area of the jacket which, when the jacket is put on, covers the chest area and stomach area of the user.
  • Such a chest carabiner loop can provide a further means of securing for connection to a securing device, for example a fall arrest system, in which the user is brought into a stable and comfortable position in the event of a fall from a height.
  • the protective clothing has a jacket with a connection unit, the connection unit having an inner connection element arranged in the interior of the jacket for connection to the seat belt or the chest belt and an outer connection element arranged in the outer region of the jacket for connection to a securing device .
  • the inner connecting element can be connected to the seat belt or - if available - the chest belt, for example at a connection point. Since the connection unit is connected to the jacket, it is always in the right place and does not have to be put through the jacket like a carabiner loop.
  • the outer connecting element can protrude or hang out of the jacket or can be pulled out through a gripping tab if necessary.
  • the connecting element can be arranged in a pocket and connected to a gripping tab. If necessary, the gripping tab is pulled, which pulls the connecting element out of the pocket.
  • the protective clothing has an additional line and the additional line can be connected to the seat belt or the chest belt and has at least one hooking ring and at least one safety carabiner. People to be rescued can be hooked into the hooking ring.
  • the safety carabiner can also be connected to appropriate lines, etc. to secure it.
  • the protective clothing has a pull-out cord which has a gripping tab at one end and a connecting tab for connection to the safety carabiner at the opposite end.
  • This allows the additional line to remain stowed in the jacket where it does not disturb until it is needed.
  • the gripping tab By pulling on the gripping tab, the additional line can then be pulled out via the pull-out line and used.
  • the gripping tab is preferably not transmitting the user's weight with the jacket connected, as this would unnecessarily strain the jacket and the securing via the chest strap is sufficient.
  • the embodiment shown in the figures has a protective jacket 100 (not shown), a pair of pants 1 and a seat belt 2, which is arranged inside the pants 1 in the hip area thereof. Furthermore, a chest strap 3 is connected to the trousers 1 on a rear side 5 of the chest strap 3 via two partially elastic suspender sections 4.
  • the seat belt 2 has a right leg strap 21a and a left leg strap 21b, which are connected to a hip belt 22 in the front area.
  • inner pants 6 are arranged, which have two inner pants legs 7a, 7b, a right inner pants leg 7a leading through the right leg flap 21a and a left inner pants leg 7b through the left leg flap 21b.
  • the inner trouser legs 7a, 7b and thus also the leg tabs 21a, 21b run in the respective trouser legs of the trousers 1.
  • the inner trouser legs 7a, 7b are only short in relation to the trouser legs of the trousers 1 and end a few centimeters below the crotch seam. A longer version is not necessary, as it only serves to better insert the legs.
  • the inner pants are connected to the pants 1 in the region of the waistband of the pants 1 over a large part of the waistband, the connection being partially interrupted in the area of the buckles and similar adjustment devices. This enables the straps and the trousers 1 to be put on and adjusted properly. Since the hip belt 22 is arranged lower in the trousers 1, this is covered by the inner pants 7 when putting on the pants from the perspective of the user.
  • the seat belt 2 preferably has two seat carabiner loops 23 on the hip belt 22, which are guided through first openings 8. These can easily be connected with carabiners or the like and a user of the protective clothing can be secured against falling.
  • the hip belt 22 is preferably guided outside the trousers 1 in the area of an opening mechanism 22a.
  • openings 1 a can be provided in the pants through which the hip belt can be passed. These openings 1 a are preferably arranged on the front of the pants 1.
  • the opening mechanism 22a can be a snap connection such as a buckle system or the like.
  • a connecting element for connection to a safety line or the like can be provided in the area of the opening mechanism 22a.
  • a carabiner of a safety line can be arranged, for example, in order to secure the person to be used.
  • the inner trouser legs 7a, 7b have on their side facing away from the waistband, that is to say the lower side, a connection point 7c for connection to a corresponding connection point in the trouser legs of the trousers 1 at a corresponding height.
  • connection points are preferably designed as zip fasteners.
  • the inner pants legs 7a, 7b are thus connected to the pants 1 and cannot slip. If the seat belt 2 is to be adjusted, however, it can be easily removed by loosening the zip fasteners.
  • the inner pants 7 have lead-through openings in the hip area, through which the hip belt 22 of the seat belt 2 can be passed. This fixes its position in the pants and prevents it from slipping while putting on. If necessary, the hip belt 22 can be threaded out of the inner pants 7.
  • the chest belt 3 has a right and a left shoulder belt 31a, 31b and armpit belt 32a, 32b.
  • the shoulder girdle 31a, 31b is intended to be guided over the shoulders by the user when it is put on, while the armpit girdle 32a, 32b is intended to be guided obliquely over the torso below the armpits. This fixes the upper body in addition to the seat belt 2.
  • the right shoulder belt 31a and the right armpit belt 32a converge in the chest area on a front side 9 of the chest belt 3 at a connecting ring 10, as do the left shoulder belt 31b and the left armpit belt 32b.
  • the connecting rings 10 are designed as flexible connecting rings and are connected to one another via an openable chest fastener 11.
  • the chest fastener has a chest carabiner loop 33, which is used for connection to a rescue device or personal protective equipment against falls, for example via a carabiner, is connectable. Such a connection can be used to secure the user or to be caught in the event of a fall.
  • each connecting ring 10 is connected to a respective connecting strap 13, which is detachably connected to the hip belt 22 via a buckle connection 12. This is in Fig. 3 shown in more detail.
  • the shoulder girdles 31a, 31b and armpit girdles 32a, 32b converge in a node, the right shoulder girdle 31a and the left armpit girdle 32b being designed as one piece and the left shoulder girdle 31b and the right armpit girdle 32a being designed as one piece.
  • the seat belt 2 is thus connected to the trousers 1 via the chest belt 3 and the suspender sections 4.
  • the suspender sections 4 arise on the back of the trousers 1 and are designed as two elastic, preferably adjustable-length, carrier straps 14. These open into a shoulder sleeve 15 of the chest strap 3 through which the shoulder girdles 31a, 31b and the armpit girdles 32a, 32b run.
  • the shoulder cover 15 increases the wearing comfort and enables a flexible connection of the belt.
  • the shoulder sleeve 15 ends at the front 9.
  • the suspender sections 4 with the shoulder girdle 31a, 31b or the armpit girdle 32a, 32b thus act together in the derivation of the weight of the trousers on the shoulders of the user. In this way, the position of the trousers is secured by means of the suspender sections 4 on the one hand over the shoulders of the user.
  • the carrier straps 14 are connected to the pants 1 via carrier tabs 34 of the pants 1 that can be closed with Velcro. This connection can be released by opening the Velcro fastener, with classic braces instead of the chest strap being able to be connected to the trousers 1 via these tabs if necessary.
  • the shoulder girdles 31a, 31b have adjustment tabs on the front 9 in the chest area for adjusting the length.
  • Fig. 4 shows a protective jacket 100 which is divided by a zipper 101 into two side parts 100a, 100b from a hip opening 100c to a collar opening 100d.
  • a first side part 100a carries a cover strip 105 which, when the zipper 101 is closed, covers the zipper 101 on the outside so that it is no longer visible.
  • the zipper 101 and also the cover strip 105 extend from a hip opening 100c to a collar opening 100d of the protective jacket 100.
  • a piece of fabric is arranged on the outside of the cover strip 105, preferably sewn on. It extends along the cover strip over part of this, in the chest area of the protective jacket. It is connected to the cover strip 105 on the one facing the collar opening 100d, the hip opening 100c and the first side part 100a, the side facing a pocket 119 being open.
  • the piece of fabric thus represents a first cover flap 106 with an open edge.
  • the pocket 119 has a pocket opening 120 facing the open side of the first cover flap 106.
  • the pocket 119 is arranged at chest level of the protective jacket 100 on the first side part 100a.
  • Two pockets preferably overlap one another or are preferably arranged one above the other.
  • one above the other means that the other pocket is arranged between the one pocket and the fabric of the protective jacket.
  • the pocket openings 120 can point in different directions.
  • One pocket opening 120 preferably points in the direction of the through opening 108 and another pocket opening in the direction of the collar opening 100d.
  • One pocket can thus be used to store the additional leash, while the other is free for the user of the protective jacket to use.
  • the protective jacket 100 also has further pockets, for example one per side part 100a, 100b in the hip area and also at chest level of the second side part 100b.
  • Fig. 5 shows a section through a front of the protective jacket 100 ,.
  • a second side part 100b is shown, each side part 100a, 100b has a zip fastener part which can interlock and thus close the protective jacket 100.
  • the zipper part is arranged on the carrier strip 102, which is preferably a sealing membrane of the protective jacket that is reinforced by a knitted layer or a fabric.
  • the carrier strip 102 can be part of the layer structure of the front side or the protective jacket 100 itself, as in FIG Fig. 4 shown. For example, it can be an extension of a sealing membrane of the protective jacket 100.
  • the sealing membrane can serve as a moisture barrier. It can be waterproof, but preferably also gas-permeable.
  • the carrier strip 102 is covered on an outer side 103 of the protective jacket 100 by a cover strip 105 and thus protected.
  • the protective jacket 100 has a first cover flap 106 and a second cover flap 107. In this embodiment they are arranged on the cover flap 105.
  • the first and second cover flaps 106, 107 have open edges which are not sewn to the protective jacket. The open edges are opposite arranged.
  • a through opening 108 is opened between the open edges, through which a line 109 can pass through the protective jacket 100 from the outside 103 to an inside 104.
  • the line 109 can be part of the protective clothing as an additional line, which also includes the protective jacket.
  • the first and second cover flaps are bent away from one another so that the first and second cover flaps no longer lie on top of each other and expose the through opening.
  • the protective jacket 100 also has a fourth cover flap 111 which, in the flat position, is congruent with the first cover flap 106. It is arranged on the side of the first cover flap 106, as seen from the through opening.
  • the fourth cover flap 111 likewise has an open edge 112 which is opposite the open edge of the second cover flap 107. In the open position as in Fig. 4 it is also shown bent away from the second cover flap 107 and thus opens a path for the line 109.
  • An open edge of a fifth cover flap 113 is provided opposite the open edge 112.
  • the fifth cover flap 113 is arranged on the side of the second cover flap 105 as seen from the through opening 108 and on the same plane with the fourth cover flap 111. Together with the fourth cover flap 111 it forms a longitudinal slot which is parallel to a longitudinal axis 114.
  • the fourth and fifth cover flaps 111, 113 have the same outer fabric as the rest of the protective jacket connected to and are also sewn to the. They preferably have a moisture barrier on a side facing the inside 104.
  • the protective jacket preferably also has a moisture barrier on the side of the outer fabric facing the inside 104.
  • the cover flaps are arranged one behind the other along a section axis 110, that is to say lie in different planes along the section axis 110.
  • the second cover flap 107 is formed from a part of the outer fabric 115 of the protective jacket 100.
  • the cover strip 102 has an auxiliary opening 116 which lies along the longitudinal axis 114 and along a width axis 118 transversely to the longitudinal axis and to the cutting axis 110 in the region of the through opening 108.
  • the auxiliary opening 116 has an auxiliary zipper 117 which makes the auxiliary opening 116 closable.
  • the leash 109 extends through this and can be connected to a safety belt or tether.
  • the Fig. 6 shows the same detail as Fig. 4 but in a flat position. In this case, no line is passed through the through opening and the cover flaps are accordingly not pushed apart by this.
  • the first cover flap 106 partially covers the second cover flap 107.
  • first cover flap 106 rests partially on the second cover flap 107, in other words the through opening has collapsed and the protective jacket is closed at this point.
  • parts of these cover flaps lie one above the other.
  • the open edges of the fourth and fifth cover flaps 111, 113 are also directly opposite one another and are at the same height.
  • all cover flaps are at least partially one above the other or directly opposite one another.
