Working in the forest in the near future. clothing It will be safer and more comfortable. This is because the world is born with an innovative type. Fabric The reason of sensing system. The first joint development of UniversityofBremen and the Harvard Institute of textile research Sensing textiles 。

This system is called "HORST" German, which means sensing overalls. Its principle is very simple, but it is very effective. When a worker uses a chainsaw, if the sawtooth approaches the trousers or touches the fabric, the chainsaw will be cut off immediately. In 2011, the new textile of sensing textiles was awarded the International Innovation Award at the spring technology Textile Fair in Frankfurt, Germany.

For many years, special cutting clothing, especially forest industry logging professional protection has always been a worldwide problem. In Germany, about 25 thousand professional logging workers work in forests all year round. At present, in order to ensure the protective function of the clothing, the super fiber material layer is generally used to play a passive protection role. Because the sawtooth will gradually cut the fabric of the worker before sawtooth touching the skin of the human body, and the worker will feel hurt before he feels that the chainsaw will not stop. However, because of the adiabatic effect of the multi-layer reinforced fiber fabrics, it is difficult to avoid injuries only by the feeling of the body, especially in summer. As a result, lumbering accidents continue to happen, and tragedies happen frequently.

In contrast, the newly developed HORST textile electronic protection system allows the sawtooth to come to danger before it touches the fabric, so it will stop working immediately. Therefore, the protection system reduces the danger to a minimum, turning passive protection into active protection, which can effectively protect logging workers, and workers do not need to wear thick work clothes, but rather light uniforms. As a result, workers feel comfortable and comfortable, and they also reduce the stress caused by tension. The German Clothing Institute of hghstan believes that this clothing induction system is a pioneering work, because it really improves the conditions for labor protection.

The principle of this protection system is very simple. The chain saw has a magnet installed on the cutting stick, and the radio signal transmitted by the magnetic field is directly connected to the electric saw. If the sawtooth is too close to the overalls, it senses the danger and sends out a radio signal immediately, which instantly cuts off the power of the saw. During the test, the researchers found that the sensors were able to detect and respond promptly to the distance between the saw tooth and the electronic induction overalls 5~10cm. This means that during work, both the overalls with this induction and the workers' body can be unharmed.

Not only that, the induction protective overalls are easy to move without static electricity, and there is only one radio signal micro launcher and a micro battery in the pants. If the battery is not enough, then the electric saw will not work. For the wearing author, whether it is a forest worker or a private specialized field, the inductor with pants will not see or feel, but has a strong sense of force.

According to the actual test of the German Institute of clothing, this innovative protective overalls, no matter how heavy and complex the work is, are very stable and reliable. The care of such trousers is also very easy, and it can be washed many times without weakening its protection function.

It is surprising that this induction type clothing is not restricted by cutting, and can be used to create various uniforms at will. This property means that innovative fabrics, whether they are made up of jackets or overalls, are suitable for all types of household clothing, and also meet the needs of other industries and workshops.
