Abstract
A blower appliance includes: a carrying harness, at least one blower fastener, a blower having an air outlet, and a nozzle, connected downstream of the air outlet by way of an elastic bellows having a return effect. The blower fastener having an articulation having a return effect, which tends to return the axis of the air outlet of the fan body towards a rest position, the articulation having a return component, parallel to the spinal axis, with a second spinal return stiffness, the second spinal return stiffness being greater than the first spinal return stiffness of the elastic bellows. The blower appliance finds applications in the maintenance of parks and gardens.
Claims14
Blower equipment comprising:
- a carrying harness provided with a carrying frame with a dorsal support area arranged on a dorsal plane, the dorsal plane extending adjacent to the back of a carrier when the harness is worn on the back in a position of use of the blower equipment,
- at least one lateral blower fastener,
- a blower secured to the carrying frame by the blower fastener, and comprising a fan body with an air outlet arranged on an air-outlet axis, the blower including a nozzle, connected downstream of the air outlet by an elastic bellows with return effect, the elastic bellows having a return component, parallel to a spinal axis, with a first spinal return stiffness, the spinal axis being defined at an intersection of the dorsal plane with a spinal plane, perpendicular to the dorsal plane and passing through the vertebral column of a carrier when the harness is worn on the back in the position of use,
- and wherein:
- the blower fastener comprises an articulation having a return effect, tending to return the air-outlet axis of the air outlet of the fan body towards a rest position, the articulation having a return component, parallel to the spinal axis, with a second spinal return stiffness, the second spinal return stiffness being greater than the first spinal return stiffness.
