Abstract

The invention concerns a forearm protecting device covering the forearms (22), from the base of the elbow (26) to the wrist (24) providing protection against attacks with truncheons, even with bladed weapons in various situations. The device may cover only the cubital part (30) of the forearm which is the vulnerable part. The covering portion (28) is made from composite materials such as: resistant plastic, polycarbon or other lightweight material. The whole device is supported on a wave-absorbing cushion consisting of Kevlar fibers capable of dispersing a shock wave over a larger surface. The covering portion is provided with six longitudinal rods (44) enabling generation of pressures such as in a Yawara type truncheon. The rods have a diameter ranging between 5 and 15 mm depending on the desired degree of protection. The protective device is maintained in the forearm through hook-and-loop type straps (38). The invention also concerns a similar type of device adapted for shin protection.

DISCUS SION OF THE APPLICATIONS OF THE INVENTION
L'invention concerne un équipement de protection pour les intervenants en sécurité tels les policiers, les agents carcéraux ou les agents de sécurité. L' efficacité du dispositif de protection repose sur ses tiges longitudinales qui permettent d' effectuer un contrôle sur un contrevenant récalcitrant grâce à des pressions sur les bras ou les j ambes de ce dernier. La forme des tiges, qu 'elles soient de section circulaire, triangulaire, semi-circulaire, gothique ou autre, permet un contrôle efficace comme le font les équipements de police de type Yawara (Kubotan). L' avantage de ce nouveau dispositif est de permettre au policier ou à l ' agent de sécurité de garder ses mains libres. De plus, comme le dispositif est incorporé à la tenue vestimentaire au même titre qu 'une veste pare-balles, le dispositif peut être utilisé comme mesure défensive efficace du côté ulnaire par les tiges et le coussin anti-choc, protégeant ainsi l' agent de nombreux risques de poursuite inhérente à une arme offensive; le dispositif a aussi une utilité offensive par les pointes situées du côté radial.The invention relates to protective equipment for security personnel such as the police, prison officers or security officers. The effectiveness of the protection device rests on its longitudinal rods which make it possible to carry out a check on a recalcitrant offender thanks to pressures on the arms or legs of the latter. The shape of the rods, whether circular, triangular, semi-circular, Gothic or other, allows effective control as do Yawara (Kubotan) type police equipment. The advantage of this new device is to allow the police or the security guard to keep their hands free. In addition, as the device is incorporated into the clothing as well as a bulletproof jacket, the device can be used as an effective defensive measure on the ulnar side by the rods and the anti-shock cushion, thus protecting the agent. the many risks of prosecution inherent in an offensive weapon; the device also has an offensive utility by the spikes located on the radial side.

La coque moulée épouse la forme de l' avant-bras. Afin d ' alléger l' appareil, pour certains modèles, seule la p artie ulnaire de l' avant-bras peut être recouverte. C' est cette partie qui est exposée lorsqu'un blocage est effectué lors d 'une attaque à coups de bâton. Allant de la pointe du coude jusqu' au poignet, la coque de plastique peut reposer sur un tissu de fibres de Kevlar ou autres fibres similaires, permettant de répartir le choc d'un coup frappé sur une plus grande surface. Le tout est retenu par des bandes de velcro permettant l'ajustement de l' appareil sur l' avant-bras.The molded shell follows the shape of the forearm. In order to make the device lighter, for some models, only the ulnar part of the forearm can be covered. It is this part which is exposed when a blockage is made during a stick blows attack. From the tip of the elbow to the wrist, the plastic shell can rest on a fabric of Kevlar fibers or other similar fibers, allowing to distribute the shock of a blow struck over a larger area. The whole is retained by velcro strips allowing the adjustment of the device on the forearm.
L ' appareil peut aussi être utilisé sur le tibia, dans lequel cas l ' ajustement se fait au niveau de la j ambe et dans lequel cas au moins une tige rigide est située à l' avant.The device can also be used on the tibia, in which case the adjustment is made at the level of the jab and in which case at least one rigid rod is located at the front.
Dans l' application où le dispositif protège l' avant-bras, la polyvalence du dispositif permet de protéger légèrement ou complètement l' avant-bras, en se servant par exemple de une à six tiges rigides sur le pourtour de l ' avant-bras.In the application where the device protects the forearm, the versatility of the device makes it possible to slightly or completely protect the forearm, using for example one to six rigid rods around the circumference of the forearm .
B ien sûr, le dispositif pouvant être incorporé à la tenue vestimentaire, il sera avantageux d 'utiliser des fibres qui permettent la transpiration, surtout sur les surfaces en contact avec la peau.Of course, the device can be incorporated into clothing, it will be advantageous to use fibers that allow perspiration, especially on surfaces in contact with the skin.
