(21) Covering worksuit 1 comprises a first zip closure FG1 in trunk part 2, as well as one or more other closures FG2, FG3 extending in at least one of the legs 31, 32 of trouser part 3, which will be described below and which can be the zip closures described below with a slider, called first type of closure as for closure FG1, or closures of the second type not bearing the slider on covering worksuit 1 and nevertheless with strips that can be separated along their meshing line LE2 or LE3 of meshing, as described below.
(22) Thus, as shown in
(23) In the following, a zip closure has the meaning known to the person skilled in the art and comprises two parallel strips or first and second sides BA11 and BA12 extending in length and each comprising a series of consecutive teeth respectively D1, D2 and Dr, D2′ distributed in the meshing direction LE1, as shown in
(24) The other closure FG2 and/or FG3 extends from top to bottom between two other opposite edges respectively 311, 312 and/or 321, 322 of wall 4 located in at least one of the legs 31, 32 of trouser part 3. Leg 31 is, for example the left leg of trouser part 3, and leg 32 is, for example, the right leg of trouser part 3. The other closure FG2 and/or FG3 starts, for example from crotch area Z of covering worksuit 1. This other closure FG2 and/or FG3 comprises two strips, respectively BA21, BA22 and/or BA31, BA32, which are respectively attached in a dustproof manner to the two opposite edges, respectively 311, 312 and/or 321, 322 of wall 4. The two strips BA21, BA22, respectively BA31, BA32 are configured to be able to be connected together along at least one other prescribed meshing line LE2, respectively LE3, which is dustproof in the closed state of closure FG2, respectively FG3 and are configured to be able to be separated from each other along this other meshing line LE2, respectively LE3, in the open state of closure FG2, respectively FG3.
(25) As shown in
(26) At least one breaking member CU or LA is provided on at least one of closures FG1, FG2 and FG3. This breaking member CU or LA is configured to break connection point S or S1 or S2 or CO when the breaking member CU or LA is pulled.
(27) Thus, the embodiment described above of the covering worksuit 1 allows the person wearing it to open the covering worksuit 1 in a prescribed, intuitive and quick way by pulling the breaking member CU or LA, which breaks the connection point S or S1 or S2 or CO, and makes it possible to change from the closed state to the open state the first zip closure FG1 and the other closure(s) FG2 and/or FG3 by separating them along their prescribed meshing line LE1, LE2 and/or LE3. In this way, it is avoided that the individual contaminates himself by the radioactive particles present on the outside of the covering worksuit 1 when he opens this covering worksuit 1 to remove it.
(28) Breaking member CU or LA is accessible from the outside of the covering worksuit 1 by the individual who wears the covering worksuit 1. In this way, it is avoided that, when the individual pulls on the breaking member CU or LA, contaminated particles enter the covering worksuit 1 when going to the open state of closures FG1, FG2 and/or FG3. In this way, it is avoided that the operator wearing the covering worksuit 1 contaminates himself or other individuals or the areas when he removes this covering worksuit 1 and comfort is also improved during this undressing phase, in particular to avoid off balance positions when crossing the boundary separating contaminated areas and uncontaminated areas, indicated above.
(29) The first closure FG1 and the other closure(s) FG2 and/or FG3 are, for example, arranged in a Y shape, as shown in
(30) The covering worksuit 1 makes it possible for the person wearing it to avoid having to tear their covering worksuit at the crotch down to the bottom of the trousers, which could potentially resuspend contaminated particles. On the contrary, covering worksuit 1 is opened along the prescribed meshing lines LE1, LE2 and/or LE3 from top to bottom with no abrupt movements accompanying the opening movement and no risk of introducing the hands behind wall 4, down to the bottom of trouser part 3.
(31) Below, first, second and third embodiments of the covering worksuit 1 described above will be described.
(32) In the first embodiment shown in
(33)
(34) To put on the covering worksuit 1, the individual lowers the slider CU as far as above the connection point S or S1 or S2 to open the first closure FG1 above this point, puts his head through collar C and its trunk through trunk part 2, its arms in the sleeves M and its legs in the parts 31 and 32 of the trouser part 3. Then the individual raises the slider CU along the meshing line LE1 up to the top to close the closure FG1 again.
(35) To open covering worksuit 1, the individual lowers the slider CU of the closure FG1 to pass it on the connection point S, which breaks the connection point S, then continues to lower the slider CU along the leg 31 to the bottom, then the individual opens the closure FG3 along the meshing line LE3 in the leg 32 to the bottom.
(36) In the second embodiment shown in
(37) In the second embodiment shown in
(38) In the second embodiment shown in
(39) The breaking member is formed by or comprises a tab LA having a lower side part LA2 fastened, for example by sewing, to the second strip BA22 and another side part LA3 (at a distance from side part LA2) fastened, for example by sewing, to the third strip BA31, the strips BA22 and BA31 being those of the second strips and of the third strips that are the closest to one another. Tab LA is also located near first and second connection point S1 and S2. Tab LA comprises an upper part LA1 for manual gripping that can be formed, for example, by a closed loop of fabric at parts LA2 and LA3 to allow a finger to pass through it. Tab LA is configured to induce, by pulling on tab LA, the breaking of the first and second connection points S1 and S2, the separation of the two seconds strips BA21 and BA22 from one another along the second meshing line LE2 and the separation of the two third strips BA31 and BA32 from one another along the third meshing line LE3. The gripping part LA1 is provided, for example, underneath the lower ends BA110 and BA120 of the sides BA11 and BA12 of the first closure FG1.
(40) First closure FG1 extends, for example, from top to bottom from collar C to tab LA at crotch area Z. Second closure FG2 extends, for example, from crotch area Z to the bottom of leg 31 of trouser part 3. Third closure FG3 extends, for example, from crotch area Z to the bottom of leg 32 of trouser part 3. To remove the covering worksuit 1, the individual wearing it lowers the slider CU of the first zip closure FG1 down to tab LA in the crotch area Z. The slider CU then reaches the lower ends BA110 and BA120 above the tab LA to separate the two sides BA11 and BA12 including at their lower end BA110 and BA120 by an interval, which releases an access of the user's hand to the tab LA, for example to its gripping part LA1. The individual then pulls the tab LA downward, i.e., for example, the gripping part LA1, which breaks the connection points S1 and S2 and then opens the closure FG2 from top to bottom along the meshing line LE2 from the upper ends BA210 and BA220 and opens the second closure FG3 from top to bottom along the meshing line LE3 from the upper ends BA310 and BA320.
(41) Moreover, the tab LA can comprise an attachment to the wall 4 in the crotch area Z, for example by sewing or gluing. The tab LA can be located higher than the lower ends BA110, BA120 of the zip closure FG1 to constitute a sub-bridge making a barrier to contamination when the operator is working.
(42) The first connection point S1 connects, for example, the upper end tooth D21 of the strip BA21 to the upper end tooth D22 of the strip BA22.
(43) The first connection point S2 connects, for example, the upper end tooth D31 of the strip BA31 to the upper end tooth D32 of the strip BA32.
(44) Due to the fact that, in the closed state of the closures FG1, FG2 and FG3, the tab LA is found inside the covering worksuit 1, the tab LA is not contaminated by radioactives particles. Pulling on the tab LA by the individual who wears the covering worksuit 1 naturally opens the zip closures FG2 and FG3 by simple separation of their respective strips BA21, BA22 and BA31, BA32 along their prescribed meshing line LE2 and LE3.
(45) The individual can then pull on the outer edges 311 and 322 of the legs 31 and 32 to finish opening the closures FG2 and FG3 along the meshing lines LE2 and LE3.
(46) In a third embodiment shown in
(47) The operation is as follows, for example, illustrated in reference to
(48) In a first step in
(49) In a second step in
(50) In a third step in
(51) In a fourth step in
(52) This embodiment is intrinsically hermetically sealed to contamination, since it does not offer any open area requiring arranging a sub-bridge SP like the first embodiment.
(53) The other closure FG2 and/or FG3 can also be a zip closure of the first type comprising its own slider (called other slider) separate from the slider CU, to allow strip BA21 to be connected together with strip BA22 or strip BA31 to strip BA32 along the other meshing line LE2 or LE3 by moving this other slider from bottom to top along it and to allow strip BA21 to be separated from strip BA22 or strip BA31 to be separated from strip BA32 along this other meshing line LE2 or LE3 by moving this other slider from top to bottom along one of these strips.
(54) However, the two strips BA21 and BA22 can be of the second type not bearing a slider on the covering worksuit 1 as indicated above, to mesh with each other along the other meshing line LE2 in the closed state, these two strips BA21 and BA22 being configured to be able to be separated from each other along the other meshing line LE2 by pulling on one and/or the other of the two strips BA21 and BA22, i.e., without having a slider for them to be separated. The two strips BA31 and BA32 of the other closure FG3 can be of the second type not bearing a slider on the covering worksuit 1 as indicated above, to mesh with each other along the other meshing line LE3 in the closed state, these two strips BA31 and BA32 being configured to be able to be separated from each other along the other meshing line LE3 by pulling on one and/or the other of the two strips BA31 and BA32, i.e., without having a slider for them to be separated. The closure FG2 and/or FG3 of the second type can have been obtained by sectioning a desired length L of a slider zip closure in the closed state, this length L being located behind the slider (for example of plastic) of this zip closure in the closed state in the closing direction S10, as shown in
(55) According to an embodiment shown in
(56) Two front and side tags PF1 and PF2, respectively left and right, can be attached in front of the front closure strip CF. The tags PF1 and PF2 serve for manual gripping of collar C without inserting the fingers inside the collar C, which prevents contaminated particles from being introduced therein.
