Abstract
The suit according to the invention comprises, as well as a textile lining and a skin made of low stretch textile material, a double walled skin lying between them, made of moderately stretchable watertight material. The latter is made of walls, which are joined together at connection positions for instance by welding. The mutually communicating hollow spaces arising thereby in the double walled skin are filled with a fluid. The suit is closed by zip fasteners ( ) and by shoulder straps ( ). Short zip fasteners ( ) in the crotch facilitate putting on the suit. The front part ( ), armlets ( ) thorax part ( ) can be equipped with various structures of connecting positions, which however are arranged similarly on both halves of the suit. All the named parts ( ) can be provided each with two valves ( ) for filling with the fluid and for ventilation. The fluid filled and pre-tensioned, by the outer skin, double walled skin builds up a compensating pressure on the body proportional to the acceleration.
