DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENT
With reference now to the drawings, and in particular to FIGS. 1 through 4 thereof, a new garment device embodying the principles and concepts of an embodiment of the disclosure and generally designated by the reference numeral 10 will be described.
As best illustrated in FIGS. 1 through 4, the protective garment assembly 10 generally comprises a suit 12 that may be worn by a user 14. The suit 12 may be comprised of a rigid material such as plastic or other similar material. The suit 12 includes a body portion 16 of the suit 12.
The body portion 16 of the suit 12 has a pair of sleeves 18 movably coupled to each of a pair of shoulders 20 of the body portion 16 of the suit 12. The user 14 wears the body portion 16 of the suit 12 so each of the user's legs 22 extends outwardly through a girdle 24 of the body portion 16 of the suit 12. Each of the user's arms 26 extends outwardly through an associated one of the pair of sleeves 18 on the body portion 16 of the suit 12. The body portion 16 of the suit 14 may be worn on the user's torso 28.
A helmet 30 is provided. The helmet 30 may be worn on the user's head 32. The helmet 30 may be an open face helmet of any conventional design.
The suit 12 includes a pair of arm portions 34 of the suit 12. The pair of arm portions 34 of the suit 12 each has an outer wall 36 extending between a first end 38 and a second end 40 of each of the pair of arm portions 34 of the suit 12. Each of the first 38 and second 40 ends of the pair of arm portions 34 of the suit 12 is open. The pair of arm portions 34 of the suit 12 is each substantially hollow. Finally, the outer wall 36 of each of the pair of arms portions 34 of the suit 12 has a cylindrical shape.
The outer wall 36 of each of the pair of arm portions 34 of the suit 12 is split between the first 38 and second 40 ends of each of the pair of arm portions 34 of the suit 12. Each of the pair of arm portions 34 of the suit 12 are positionable between an open and a closed position. Each of the pair of arm portions 34 of the suit 12 may be positioned around an associated one of the user's forearms 42.
The suit 12 includes a plurality of leg portions 44 of the suit 12. The plurality of leg portions 44 of the suit 12 each has an exterior wall 46 extending between each of a primary end 48 and a secondary end 50 of each of the plurality of leg portions 44 of the suit 12. Each of the primary 48 and secondary 50 ends of the plurality of leg portions 44 of the suit 12 is open. Additionally, each of the plurality of leg portions 44 of the suit 12 is substantially hollow. The exterior wall 46 of each of the plurality of leg portions 44 of the suit 12 has a cylindrical shape.
The exterior wall 46 of the plurality of leg portions 44 of the suit 12 is split between the primary 48 and secondary 50 ends of each of the plurality of leg portions 44 of the suit 12. Each of the plurality of leg portions 44 of the suit 12 is positionable between an open position and a closed position. Moreover, the plurality of leg portions 44 of the suit 12 may each be positioned around an associated one of the user's legs 22.
A plurality of locks 54 is provided. Each of the plurality of locks 54 is coupled to the outer 36 and exterior 46 walls of an associated one of each of the pair of arm portions 34 and plurality of leg portions 44 of the suit 12. The plurality of locks 54 are each positioned proximate the split in the exterior wall 46 and outer wall 36 of each of the pair of arm portions 34 and the plurality of leg portions 44 of the suit 12. The plurality of locks 54 retains each of the arm 34 and leg 44 portions of the suit 12 in the closed position.
The plurality of leg portions 44 of the suit 12 comprise a pair of sets 56 of the plurality of leg portions 44 of the suit 12. Each of the pair of sets 56 of the plurality of leg portions 44 of the suit 12 is positionable around an associated one of the user's upper 58 and lower 60 legs. Each of the user's knees 62 and each of the user's feet 64 are exposed.
A plurality of blades 66 is provided. Each of the plurality of blades 66 has a top edge 68 and a bottom edge 70. The top 68 and bottom 70 edges of the plurality of blades 66 taper to a point on a front end 71 of each of the plurality of blades 66. The bottom edge 70 of each of the plurality of blades 66 is coupled to each of the body 16, arm 34 and leg 44 portions of the suit 12. A constricting snake 72 cannot constrict the user 14 without being injured by the plurality of blades 66.
A group of body ones 74 of the plurality of blades 66 each is coupled to each of the pair of shoulders 20 of the body portion 16 of the suit 12 and each of the pair of sleeves 18 of the body portion 16 of the suit 12. Additionally, a pair of arm ones 76 of the plurality of blades 66 each is coupled to the outer wall 36 of an associated one of the pair of arm portions 34 of the suit 12. A group of leg ones 78 of the plurality of blades 66 each is coupled to the exterior wall 46 of an associated one of the pair of sets 56 of the plurality of leg portions 44 of the suit 12. Finally, a group of helmet ones 80 of the plurality of blades 66 is each coupled to an extraneous side 82 of the helmet 30.
In use, the user 14 wears each of the body 16, arm 34 and leg 44 portions of the suit 12 prior to going to sleep. The user 14 is protected from being attacked by the constricting snake 72 while the user 14 sleeps. Additionally, the user 14 wears the suit 12 if the user 14 is going to be entering the constricting snake's 72 natural environment.
With respect to the above description then, it is to be realized that the optimum dimensional relationships for the parts of an embodiment enabled by the disclosure, to include variations in size, materials, shape, form, function and manner of operation, assembly and use, are deemed readily apparent and obvious to one skilled in the art, and all equivalent relationships to those illustrated in the drawings and described in the specification are intended to be encompassed by an embodiment of the disclosure.
Therefore, the foregoing is considered as illustrative only of the principles of the disclosure. Further, since numerous modifications and changes will readily occur to those skilled in the art, it is not desired to limit the disclosure to the exact construction and operation shown and described, and accordingly, all suitable modifications and equivalents may be resorted to, falling within the scope of the disclosure. In this patent document, the word “comprising” is used in its non-limiting sense to mean that items following the word are included, but items not specifically mentioned are not excluded. A reference to an element by the indefinite article “a” does not exclude the possibility that more than one of the element is present, unless the context clearly requires that there be only one of the elements.
