[0005] The present invention refers to a flotation support accessory, which are used to instill security by improving buoyancy and cushioning, being especially recommended for water gymnastics sessions in the elderly or by any other person who moves with difficulty in the aquatic environment, due to lack of agility, problems in the musculoskeletal system, disability, excess weight, obesity or any other reason.
[0006] It is a very simple and economic accessory, easy to install, making it highly effective for the purpose for which it is intended.
[0008] TECHNICAL SECTOR TO WHICH THE INVENTION REFERS
[0009] The invention presented affects the Sector of Current Needs of Life, chapters of Personal or Domestic Objects and Health, Protection, Amusements in relation to Sports, Games and Distractions. From the industrial point of view it affects the manufacturers of accessories for water sports and activities in water, ponds, lakes, beaches and swimming pools.
[0011] BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
[0012] The activities and sports that take place in the water carry the risk of drowning due to the momentary loss of some of the normal physical faculties. For this reason, the use of life jackets or auxiliary safety devices is recommended, for those who start in the sport of swimming or for those who enjoy water activities in ponds, lakes, pools or beaches.
[0013] All the more reason the use of this type of safety accessories is recommended when dealing with the elderly or people with some type of disability. Also for young children who start swimming.

[0025] The invention presented in this document is among those of the first group with the particularity that it solves the problem posed in an extremely simple, economic way, involving novelty in the two embodiments described in the following paragraphs.
[0027] DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION
[0028] The present invention refers to a device to support buoyancy and damping, that is, it is not a life preserver, according to the usual interpretation of this accessory, but rather those used to instill safety in those who attend sessions of aquatic gymnastics being especially recommended for people with certain difficulties or deficiencies such as those mentioned in the first section of this document.
[0029] The inventor conceives a complete kit as equipment for conditions of good buoyancy and damping. The equipment is characterized by the use of tubes or tube sections made of expanded polyethylene (EPE) foam, very common in various applications in daily life.
[0030] The main components of this equipment are as follows:
[0031] - belt
[0032] - suspenders
[0033] - bottom piece
[0034] crown
[0035] - necklace
[0036] - bracelet
[0037] - bracelet
[0038] - leg
[0039] - anklet
[0040] The belt is used as such being formed by a length of tube or sections of EPE tubes into which the tying element that is attached to the front clip is inserted through its longitudinal hole.
[0041] The straps are two that, attached to the central rear part of the belt, go up the back, go through both sides of the neck and go down the chest to tie on the same front clasp.
[0042] The lower part connects, below, the central rear part of the belt with the common front clasp.
[0043] The set of these three pieces forms a kind of harness that, by itself, provides an important aid to buoyancy and damping.
[0044] However, the inventor prefers to increase such support to buoyancy and cushioning by adding a crown, a necklace, two bracelets, two bracelets, two legs, and two anklets.
[0045] These pieces have an identical structure to that of the belt although with a cross section and proportions provided for its adjustment in each of the parts of the body.
[0046] With this equipment, people who start in water gymnastics without any experience, feel very safe in the water and move with ease. As soon as they reach a certain level, according to the instructor, they gradually dispense with some components such as those mentioned last, and even some of the components of the harness whose tubes or sections of tubes of the braces or crotch are removed leaving only the tying tapes or cords; you can also do without the tapes or extra ropes, leaving the waist tube or tube sections and their tying tape or rope only.
[0047] At the back of the belt a ring is incorporated where the various pieces that come together are attached using carabiners.
[0048] In the front part, in the most complete case, a three-way brooch with two grommets is required since five tapes converge on it.
[0049] This equipment has been found by the inventor to be suitable for achieving the intended purposes in aiding flotation. The material is within everyone's reach and its waterproof, cushioning and buoyancy characteristics are excellent.
[0050] Schematic figures and a detailed description of the device are included in the following sections, to facilitate understanding of the embodiments preferred by its inventor.

[0097] DESCRIPTION OF A PREFERRED FORM OF EMBODIMENT
[0098] Flotation aid device designed to instill user safety, improving buoyancy and cushioning, being especially recommended for water gym sessions in the elderly or by any other person who moves with difficulty in the water environment, due to lack of agility, problems in the musculoskeletal system, disability, excess weight, obesity or any other reason. In a first embodiment preferred by its inventor it comprises a main harness (1), consisting of a waist tube (2), two straps (6) and a bottom tube (7), all of them with a crown-shaped cross section circular, therefore, having longitudinal ducts (3) through which tapes (4), or elastic cords are introduced that converge, at the front, in a three-way closure (5) with two eyelets (8) for hooking carabiners (9) and at the rear are attached, either by means of a buckle-based solution (13), either by carabiners (9), to a ring (11) attached to the belt (4) of the waist tube (2) provided, at that point, with a hole (12).
[0099] Complementing the main harness (1), in order to improve flotation, the device also includes a series of complementary tubes (10) that are specified in a crown (10.1), a necklace (10.2), two bracelets (10.3) , two bracelets (10.4), two leg loops (10.5) and two anklets (10.6).
[0100] The structure of these complementary tubes (10), represented in general in (Fig. 4), is identical to that of the components of the main harness (1) although each one is dimensioned in accordance with the part of the body where it must remain in place, the same occurring with the corresponding tapes (4) and closures (11) (Figs. 5 and 6).
[0101] The use of the complete device is the one recommended for beginning users or people who require it due to their abilities and physical characteristics. As they gain confidence in the aquatic environment, they can gradually dispense with these components until they are left with only the main harness (1).
[0102] The inventor conceives even another more simplified embodiment shown in (Fig. 8) where it is observed that the lower tube (7) and the tubes of the tie rods (6) have been removed, leaving only their corresponding tapes (4 ) resulting in a very light harness. In the simplest embodiment, only the waist tube (2) is left with its corresponding strap (4) or tying rope.
[0103] As far as the tapes (4) are concerned, they are used in nylon textile material or elastic material in the form of a neoprene cord with buckles to make the appropriate adjustments.
[0104] As for the tubes or sections of EPE tubes, they are used in different colors so that the instructor pays more attention to those who consider that they need it most. It is not considered necessary to make the content of this description more extensive so that a person skilled in the art can understand the scope and advantages derived from the invention, as well as develop and put into practice the object of the same. However, it should be understood that the invention has been described in accordance with a preferred embodiment thereof, so that it may be subject to modifications without impacting or involving any alteration of the basis of said invention. That is to say, the terms in which this preferred description of the invention has been exposed, should always be taken in a broad and non-limiting manner.
