摘要:
A support frame for a knee pad has three major components that interlock with each other to form a rigid and strong frame capable of supporting the weight of a person who is working on knees. The three components are molded of a rigid plastic material. The upper component has a knee seat and a strap for wrapping around the leg of the wearer; the lower component has a cuff for wrapping around the wearer's ankle. Fastener devices for attaching the knee pad and the straps to the support frame are either incorporated into or provided on the support frame.

Aspects of the present invention relate to a shin guard construction having a shin guard and a strap. The strap may provide a number of adjustments, such as adjusting a vertical position of strap attachment to the shin guard, a length of the strap, and/or a position of a portion of the strap in both a horizontal and/or a vertical location on a wearer's leg. Further, the strap may have an upwardly inclined orientation relative to a horizontal plane extending through the shin guard. The orientation of the strap in an upward direction may be a result of a location and/or orientation of one or more fasteners. Additionally, the orientation of the strap may be a result of the size and/or shape of the strap.

Protective body padding (10) comprising a plurality of foam modules (14) interconnected by a membrane (16). The foam modules (14) and/or membrane (16) have a plurality of perforations (24) extending completely therethrough and a matrix of interconnecting air channels (28) designed to provide breathability and cooling capacity to allow venting of heat and moisture from the skin. In a preferred embodiment, the foam (11) in the modules (14) is of a variable flexibility, wherein the flexibility of foam closest to the skin is greater than the flexibility of foam immediately above. For sports use, the modules (14) can be positioned between the upper (12) and lower (17) resilient layers in a variety of positions to articulate with vulnerable body parts.

A joint protector (1 ) includes an elongate portion of resilient sheet material (2) for fitting in the longitudinal direction across a joint (30) of a limb (32) or a digit, of a human or animal. Releasable fastening means (34) are provided at each end of the portion of sheet material (2) for fixing the joint protector to a limb or digit. The portion of sheet material (2) is provided with a plurality of transverse slits (14, 14a, 14'a, 22, 22a) through the thickness of sheet material. The joint protector (1 ) may be a knee or an elbow joint protector. At least two of the plurality of transverse slits may be provided as an opposed pair (14a, 14'a), each slit of the pair cutting through an outermost edge (16) of the portion of resilient sheet material and running towards its counterpart that runs from the outermost edge (16') at the other side of the resilient sheet material.
