Patent number: 11656061Abstract: A bomb disposal suit includes a jacket, trousers, and a back protector connected between the jacket and the trousers. The back protector includes a body of impact resistant material having a plenum with an intake opening to receive forced air and with outlet openings to direct forced air out of the plenum. A fan forces air into the intake opening. The back protector can transmit load vertically from the jacket to the trousers, for example, via a back plate.Type: GrantFiled: June 22, 2020Date of Patent: May 23, 2023Assignee: Med-Eng, LLCInventors: Jeff Levine, Clint Hedge, Gordana Jeftic-Stojanovski, Matthew Keown, Dan Reddin, Magda Slobozianu, Rob Beland, Soeren Nielsen, William Dicke, Matthew Watson

Patent number: 8539815Abstract: An apparatus is provided for recording information about an event resulting in application of a force to a body. The apparatus comprises data recording means for recording the information, sensor means for sensing a parameter which enables a predetermined source of force to be distinguished from another, predetermined source of force, and control means responsive to the sensed parameter for controlling the data recording means. The sensor means may comprise a pressure sensor for sensing shockwaves resulting from an explosive force and the resulting signal used to distinguish from other events, such as blunt impacts. The pressure signal may be used to control the storage of acceleration data for injury analysis.Type: GrantFiled: June 14, 2011Date of Patent: September 24, 2013Assignee: Allen-Vanguard CorporationInventors: Gordana Jeftic-Stojanovski, Lock-Sui Chin, Jeffrey Levine, Jean-Philippe Dionne, Doug Wong, Aristidis Makris

Patent number: 7992421Abstract: An apparatus is provided for recording information about an event resulting in application of a force to a body. The apparatus comprises data recording means for recording the information, sensor means for sensing a parameter which enables a predetermined source of force to be distinguished from another, different source of force, and control means responsive to the sensed parameter for controlling the data recording means. The sensor means may comprise a pressure sensor for sensing shockwaves resulting from an explosive force and the resulting signal used to distinguish from other events, such as blunt impacts. The pressure signal may be used to control the storage of acceleration data for injury analysis.Type: GrantFiled: December 8, 2008Date of Patent: August 9, 2011Assignee: Allen-Vanguard CorporationInventors: Gordana Jeftic-Stojanovski, Lock-Sui Chin, Jeffrey Levine, Jean-Philippe Dionne, Doug Wong, Aristidis Makris
