Abstract
Description
- This invention pertains to a protective garment for a firefighter or emergency worker, particularly a military or paramilitary firefighter or emergency worker. This invention contemplates that the protective garment is reversible so as to expose, as an outer shell, either a shell of high visibility or a shell of low visibility.
- Protective garments for firefighters and emergency workers include coats, trousers, overalls, and coveralls. Currently, National Fire Protection Association (NFPA) standards require a protective garment for a firefighter to have reflective trim, which enhances the visibility of the protective garment and, therefore, the visibility of its wearer under smoke-laden and other adverse conditions. Generally, reflective trim is affixed by sewing, adhesively, or otherwise.
- However, for a military or paramilitary firefighter or emergency worker operating where a tactical operation has developed or is expected to develop, a need for low visibility may override a need for high visibility. Heretofore, a military or paramilitary firefighter or emergency worker may have to be issued two types of protective garments, i.e., protective garments to be worn in a tactical operation, in which the need for low visibility overrides the need for high visibility, and protective garments to be worn otherwise.
- This invention provides a protective garment for a military or paramilitary firefighter or emergency worker. Being reversible, the protective garment has a shell of high visibility and a shell of low visibility. The protective garment is wearable with either shell facing outwardly. The shell of high visibility has portions that are reflective, fluorescent, or both, which the shell of low visibility does not have. Those portions, which face outwardly when the protective garment is worn so that the shell of high visibility faces outwardly, may be provided by reflective trim affixed by sewing, adhesively, or otherwise to the shell of high visibility. Preferably, when facing outwardly, the shell of low visibility appears black, or at least dark, in ambient light. Alternatively, when facing outwardly, the shell of low visibility displays camouflage.
- Preferably, except that the shell of low visibility does not have reflective trim or any reflective or fluorescent portions, the shells conform to National Fire Protection Association (NFPA) standards for outer shells of protective garments for firefighters. Preferably, moreover, the shells are equal, or at least similar, in basis weights.
- FIG. 1 is a front elevation of a protective coat embodying this invention, as worn with its shell of high visibility facing outwardly. FIG. 2 is a front elevation of the same coat, as worn with its shell of low visibility facing outwardly. FIGS. 3 and 4 are cross-sections, as taken respectively along line3-3 of FIG. 1 and along line 4-4 of FIG. 2, in directions indicated by arrows.
- As illustrated, a
protective coat 10 for a military or paramilitary firefighter or emergency worker embodies this invention and has ashell 20 of high visibility and ashell 30 of low visibility. As contemplated by this invention, theshell 20 of high visibility hasseveral strips 40 of reflective trim, which theshell 30 of low visibility does not have. Preferably, when facing outwardly, theshell 30 of low visibility appears black, or at least dark, in ambient light. Alternatively, when facing outwardly, theshell 30 of low visibility displays camouflage. - Preferably, except that the
shell 30 of low visibility does not have reflective trim, the shells conform in weight, tear strength, and other characteristics to National Fire Protection Association (NFPA) standards for outer shells of protective garments for firefighters. Preferably, moreover, theshells shells - As illustrated, the
protective coat 10 has between theshells layer 50 providing a moisture barrier. Along with thelayer 50 providing the moisture barrier, another layer or other layers may be also provided between theshells - In a tactical operation, in which the need for low visibility overrides the need for high visibility, a military or paramilitary firefighter or emergency worker may wear the
protective coat 10 with theshell 30 of low visibility facing outwardly. Otherwise, the firefighter or emergency worker may wear theprotective coat 10 with theshell 20 of high visibility facing outwardly. If a tactical operation develops or is expected to develop while a military or paramilitary firefighter or emergency worker is wearing theprotective garment 10 with theshell 20 of high visibility facing outwardly, the firefighter or emergency worker may have an opportunity to doff theprotective coat 10, reverse it, and re-don it with theshell 30 of low visibility facing outwardly.
