DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a body protective suit for protecting a body from bullets, blades, explosive fragments and the like.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art A bulletproof vest is well known as one of the above-mentioned body protective clothing. A conventional bulletproof vest is made by cutting and connecting a bulletproof iron plate in the form of a vest and connecting a specified number of fabrics woven from high-strength aramid fibers or the like (hereinafter referred to as aramid fiber cloth). And so on.

[0003]

However, the conventional bulletproof vest has the following problems. (A) In the above-mentioned iron vest, since the strength of iron is low and the specific gravity is large, it is necessary to increase the thickness of the iron plate in order to obtain a predetermined protective performance, and as a result, the weight of the entire vest becomes heavy. There is. In addition, a configuration in which a large iron plate is cut into a vest shape and connected has a problem in that it is inevitable to wear iron armor, which makes it difficult to wear. Also,
The comfort of a body suit, such as a bulletproof vest, depends on how well you can handle the movement of the upper body leaning forward, curling back, and twisting the spine. Even if the iron plate is formed into a cylindrical shape corresponding to the bending of the waist, the ballistic performance can be exhibited but the comfort cannot be improved.

[0004] To solve the problem of poor comfort, a pair of holes 4 is formed on each of four sides of an iron plate 46 as shown in FIG.
7, the iron plates 46 are arranged in the up-down direction and the waist direction, and the high-strength yarns 48 are passed through the holes 47.
It is also conceivable to make bulletproof vests by joining together.
In this configuration, the iron plate 46 can move to some extent around the vertical line 49 and the horizontal line 50 at the connection portion of the iron plate 46 by the high-strength yarn 48, so that the comfort is improved.

However, in this configuration, since the strength of the high-strength thread 48 connecting the iron plate 46 is lower than the strength of the iron plate 46, when the bullet hits the iron plate 46, the high-strength thread 48 is cut and the iron plate 46 is broken. It is difficult to obtain the desired bulletproof performance. In this way, when connecting small iron plates with high-strength yarn, etc., and trying to make a bulletproof vest with a wider movable range of the iron plate to improve comfort, the bulletproof performance is reduced, and a bulletproof vest that can be used practically is manufactured It was difficult.

(B) On the other hand, in a bulletproof vest constituted by stacking only a predetermined number of aramid fiber cloths without using an iron plate or the like at all, the number of sheets to be stacked is increased in order to oppose a gun having a high penetration capability (for example, 30 sheets). To the extent). In a configuration in which a large number of aramid fiber cloths or the like are stacked, there is a problem that even if a flexible cloth material is used, the comfort is deteriorated, and when wet with water, a large amount of water is contained and the weight becomes heavy. Further, in this configuration, since heat of the body is difficult to escape, there is a problem that it is difficult to get wet in summer. Furthermore, in a configuration in which a large number of aramid fiber cloths or the like alone are stacked, the bullets can be prevented from entering the body when hit with a bullet, but since the bullets collide with the body only through the aramid fiber cloths, etc. However, there is a problem that the body receives a large impact and the wearer's physical and psychological shocks increase.

[0007]

In addition, as shown in FIG. 11 (A), a hinge member 25 attached to the upper part of the protection plate 9, and as shown in FIG. There is a cloth material 11 having a fixing portion 26 for fixing to the fabric 8. When the protection plate 9 is fixed to the base material 8, a configuration in which the protection plate 9 is overlapped is usually adopted. However, if the thickness of the protection plate 9 is thin, a configuration in which the protection plate 9 is stacked three or more times is also adopted. It is possible.

The base member 8 is made of a material which can be deformed so as to improve the mounting property in response to the movement of the upper body, especially the movement of the waist. The base material 8 is generally made of a sheet material such as a durable fiber cloth, and preferably has a certain degree of flexibility so that when worn on the body as clothes, the comfort does not deteriorate. In addition, the adjacent protection plate 9
The width of the gap 15 is preferably narrow. The reason is that if the width of the gap 15 is small, the area where the protection plate 9 is arranged at least two times increases. For example, according to the fifth aspect of the present invention, it is preferable that the interval between the adjacent bags 17 is reduced. Examples of the material constituting the bullet rotation suppression layer 5 include:
Lacquered leather, duck soft and thin wool, cotton (scrap cotton), elastic non-woven fabric, and high strength paper (for example, Japanese paper, Korean paper, etc.) that are resistant to tearing can be exemplified. Each of the above materials is used alone, or the above materials are combined.

The high-strength cloth used for the high-strength cloth layer 8 is a planar material made of a material having a much higher strength than cloth materials such as general silk, cotton, and synthetic resin. ,
A fiber layer in which various inorganic and organic fibers having high strength are knitted can be used. As another configuration example, a resin layer formed of a high-strength synthetic resin, for example, a thermoplastic resin layer or a thermosetting resin layer can be exemplified. It is also possible to form a high-strength cloth by appropriately combining the respective fiber layers and the respective resin layers.
Examples of the high-strength cloth include the aramid fiber cloth and the like and a polyethylene fiber cloth.

The body protection area 30 refers to a part of the body protection suit that requires special protection, for example, a part where there is an important internal part such as a heart.

And a string-like object connected between the protection plate 9 and the base material 8. The material and shape of the defense material described in the ninth invention are not particularly limited as long as the protection property can be improved. As an example of the protective material, the above-mentioned high-strength cloth cut into a size to fit in the bag 17 can be exemplified. Examples of the structure in which the protection plate mounting device 10 is detachably attached to the base material 8 as described in the tenth aspect of the invention include bolting and screwing.

[0016]

According to the first aspect of the present invention, in the arrangement of the protection plate in the vertical direction, the lower part of the protection plate at the upper position of the body protection area covers the upper part of the protection plate at the lower position. Since they are arranged, there is no area that is not protected by the protection plate between the protection plates in the vertical direction, and the bulletproof performance is not reduced. Furthermore, each protection plate is attached to the base material so as to be swingable with respect to the base material by fixing an upper region of the protection plate mounting device, and the lower part of the protection plate at the upper position of the body protection area is Since it is arranged so as to cover the upper part of any of the protective plates at the lower position, the upper body corresponds to the movement of the base material due to the above-mentioned forward bending operation of the upper body, the buckling operation, the twisting operation of the spine, etc. Since the distance covered by the protective plate at the lower position of the protective plate at the position changes, the protective plate should be changed according to the movement of the body, compared to a configuration in which the entire surface of the protective plate is fixed to the base material Becomes possible.

According to the second aspect of the present invention, the protection plate can be easily and reliably mounted on the base material so as to be swingable. According to the third invention, in the arrangement of the protection plate in the waist direction,
Since another protective plate is disposed on the base material so as to overlap the gap between the adjacent protective plates, so as to protect the gap,
Since the protective plate always exists in the gap between the adjacent protective plates in the waist direction, the bulletproof performance is not reduced even in the gap between the protective plates. Also, in the arrangement of the protection plate in the vertical direction, since the lower part of the protection plate at the upper position of the body protection area is arranged so as to cover the upper part of any of the protection plates at the lower position, Regarding the arrangement of the protective plates, there is no area between the protective plates that is not protected by the protective plates, and the bulletproof performance is not reduced.

Further, each protective plate is swingably attached to the substrate by fastening a protective plate mounting device to the substrate, and the lower part of the protective plate at the upper position of the body protection area is Since it is arranged so as to cover the upper part of any of the protective plates at the lower position, the upper body corresponds to the movement of the base material due to the above-mentioned forward bending operation of the upper body, the buckling operation, the twisting operation of the spine, etc. Since the distance covered by the protective plate at the lower position of the protective plate at the position changes, the protective plate should be changed according to the movement of the body, compared to a configuration in which the entire surface of the protective plate is fixed to the base material Becomes possible. Also, the third
In the case of the invention, the protection plate destroyed after being shot is replaced by a protection plate mounting device corresponding to the destroyed protection plate as a unit, that is, by refastening to the base material, other parts are used as they are The advantage is that the protective clothing can be easily regenerated.

According to the fourth aspect of the present invention, since the protective plate mounting device is configured by connecting a plurality of protective plates in a waist direction by a flexible connecting portion, the plurality of protective plates are connected in a waist direction. With this configuration, the movement of the protection plate at the connecting portion can be made relatively free as compared with the conventional configuration. In addition, by bending the protective plate mounting tool at the connection portion position, the curvature of the protective plate disposition portion can be appropriately changed according to the bending around the waist, and the wearability of the body protective clothing can be improved. According to the fifth aspect of the present invention, since the protective plate mounting device can be configured by storing the protective plate in the plurality of bags, manufacturing is simplified. In addition, by adopting a configuration in which the protective plate is accommodated in the bag, the outer surface and the inner surface of the bag are naturally deformed according to the movement of the waist of the body. The position of each protective plate can be subtly changed, and the comfort can be improved.

According to the sixth aspect of the present invention, since the protective plate is made of a titanium plate containing titanium, it is possible to provide a body protective suit that is light and has high ballistic performance. In addition, since the titanium plate is curved so as to follow the bending of the waist, when a bullet hits the titanium plate, the bullet can be guided in a direction away from the center of the body. In addition, since the titanium plate is curved so as to follow the bending of the waist, it is easy to fit around the waist and the comfort can be improved. According to the seventh aspect, the means for regulating the swing angle of the guard plate within the predetermined range is provided in the guard plate disposition portion, so that the swing angle between the base material and the guard plate becomes too large during the forward bending operation, and The board can be prevented from being too far from the substrate.

According to the eighth aspect, a bullet rotation suppressing layer for suppressing rotation of a bullet is provided on the body side from the protective plate arrangement portion,
By providing a high-strength cloth layer on the body side from the bullet rotation suppression layer, even if a bullet penetrates the protection plate of the protection plate placement part, the rotation force of the bullet is reduced by the bullet rotation suppression layer The penetration force after passing through the bullet rotation suppressing layer can be greatly reduced. Further, since the bullet with reduced penetration force can be reliably stopped by the high-strength cloth layer, the protective performance of the body protective clothing can be further enhanced. According to the ninth aspect of the present invention, since the protective material separate from the protective plate is housed in the bag, the properties and functions, etc., which are not sufficient with the protective plate, can be supplemented with the protective material. Performance can be enhanced. Also, considering the manufacturers of body protective clothing, it is necessary to change the function, level of protection required for body protective clothing without cost by changing the type, number, amount, etc. of protective materials as appropriate. Becomes possible. For example, by changing the number and quantity of protective materials contained in a bag, it is possible to create multiple types of body protective clothing with stepwise enhanced blade protection performance, and various other types of body protective clothing according to various uses Clothes can be made cheaply.

According to the tenth aspect of the present invention, since the attachment of the protective plate mounting device to the base material is configured to be detachable, only the portion of the protective plate mounting device that has been hit or impacted can be replaced. Can be easily performed. This eliminates the need to discard the entire body protection suit when hit by a bullet as in the related art, and allows the resources to be used without waste by reusing the usable portion of the body protection suit.

As shown in FIG. 3, at least the periphery of the protective plate arrangement 4, the bullet rotation suppressing layer 5, and the high-strength cloth layer 6 are sewn to each other with a high-strength thread 48 such as aramid fiber thread so that their positions are not shifted. It is. As shown in FIG. 4, the protection plate disposing portion 4 fixes the upper end of a protection plate mounting tool 10 having a protection plate 9 mounted on a base material 8 cut into a shape including a body protection region. Is swingably attached to the base material 8. In this state, the protection plate 9 is suspended from the base material 8.

The protection plate arrangement portion 4 shown in this embodiment has five protection plates 9 in the waist direction as shown in FIG. 3, and the five protection plates 9 as shown in FIGS. 2 and 4. The arrangement of the plates 9 is arranged in five rows in the vertical direction, and a total of 25 protective plates 9 are attached on the base material 8 in a planar manner. Further, as shown in FIG. 3, at least one protective plate 9 is also provided in the gap 15 between the protective plates 9 in the waist direction in the thickness direction of the clothes. That is, the protective plates 9 are arranged so as to overlap each other in a staggered arrangement in plan view. Further, as shown in FIG. 4, the lower portions 9a of all the protection plates 9 at the upper position of the body protection area are vertically arranged in a blind shape such that they cover the upper portion 9b of the protection plate 9 at the lower position. It is.

The base material 8 is made of a cloth woven from strong synthetic fibers, and is made of a material that can flexibly respond to the movement of the upper body. If necessary, a material having elasticity can be used as the base material 8. FIGS. 5A and 5B are perspective views each showing a configuration of a protective plate mounting tool having a plurality of bags, which is adopted in this embodiment. As shown in FIG. 5 (A), the protective plate mounting tool 10a serving as the outer layer is formed by stacking two cloth materials 11 and sewing the edges of the bottom side 12 and the two vertical sides 13 respectively. By sewn the edge of the bag 17 leaving two intervals 14
Are arranged in a row in the horizontal direction. Similarly, the protective plate mounting tool 10b serving as an inner layer is formed in which two bags 17 are formed except for one space serving as the connecting portion 14. 5 so that the two bags 17 of the protective plate mounting device 10b are located after (or in front of) the two connecting portions 14 of the outer protective plate mounting device 10a.
As shown in (B), two protective plate mounting devices 10a and 10b
Are sewn, and the protective plates 9 are accommodated in a total of five bags 17 respectively.

Thereafter, as shown by reference numeral 18 in FIG. 6, the openings 16 (see FIG. 5) of the bags 17 of the protective plate mounting devices 10a and 10b which are overlapped with each other are sewn to sew the outer protective plate. The protection plate 9 of the protection plate mounting tool 10b inside can be configured at the position of the connecting portion 14 of the tool 10a. Further, as shown in FIG.
By suturing only the upper end portions of the protective plate mounting devices 10a and 10b which are overlapped in two layers to the base material 8, the respective protective plates 9 can be swingably attached with the upper end portion as a base end.

In the case of arranging five rows of protection plate mounting devices 10 in the vertical direction, first, the fifth row of protection plate mounting devices 10 corresponding to the lowermost row is fixed to the base material, and then the fourth row of protection plates is mounted. By sewing the fourth row of protective plate mounting devices 10 to the base material 8 so that the lower part of the plate mounting device 10 covers the upper portion of the fifth row of protective plate mounting devices 10, the fifth row and the fourth row are sewn. The protection plate mounting device 10 can be fixed. Then, in order, the third column, the second column,

If the width Y of the gap 15 of the protection plate 9 is increased to some extent, the protection plate arrangement portion 4 is more easily deformed in the waist direction as compared with the case where the width Y of the gap 15 is small. However, as described above, the width Y of the gap 15 of the protection plate 9 is preferably smaller from the viewpoint of the protection. Further, even when the width of the gap 15 of the protection plate 9 is configured to be very small as in the second embodiment described later, the adjacent protection plate 9 is freely bent at the position of the gap 15, so that the base material 8 Softness is enough to fit around the torso of the body. Needless to say, the width Y of the gap 15 is shorter than the width X of the protection plate 9.

FIG. 7 shows the structure of the first embodiment.
It is a cross-sectional view which shows one structure corresponding to the waist circumference. In FIG. 7, only the protective plate mounting device 10 is drawn out of the protective plate disposition portion 4 for simplicity. FIG. 3 is a cross-sectional view showing a state before the protection unit 2 is attached to the bulletproof vest. The protection unit 2 is attached to a predetermined portion of the bulletproof vest 1 and the protection plate 9 is worn by a person wearing the vest 1. Are arranged in a substantially arc shape corresponding to the waist as shown in FIG. In this embodiment, the protection plate 9 is accommodated in the bag 17 so that the surface 17a of the bag 17 can be moved in accordance with the movement of the body as shown in FIG.
In addition, since the rear surface 17b can be bent or deformed, the position of the protective plate 9 can be slightly changed, and the comfort can be improved.

As the protective plate 9, a titanium plate (Ti plate) having a purity of 99% or more is used from the viewpoint of light weight and high strength. As such a titanium plate, Japanese Industrial Standard (JIS) No. 1
A type 2 or type 2 titanium plate can be exemplified. The protective plate 9 is, for example, an approximately rectangular one having a width of about 4 cm to 12 cm and a length of about 5 cm to 15 cm, and is curved along the waist of the body as shown in a perspective view in FIG. is there. The degree of curvature corresponds to an arc surface having a radius of curvature of 40 mm to 150 mm, preferably 50 m.
m to a radius of curvature of 120 mm. In the embodiment shown in FIGS. 1 to 6, a rectangular plate having a width of 8 cm and a length of 10 cm is used, and the one having a radius of curvature of 60 mm is used.

Next, the operation of this embodiment will be described. FIG. 8A is a longitudinal sectional view showing a state of a protective plate disposing portion in a state in which the bulletproof vest is worn, and the protective plate disposing portion is in a forward bent state, and FIG. 8B is a state of the protective plate disposing portion in an upright state. FIG. 8 (C) is a longitudinal sectional view showing a state of the protection plate disposing portion in a state where the bulletproof vest is worn and the back is warped. As shown in FIG. 8, the protection plate 9 is swingably supported by fixing the upper end portion of the protection plate mounting device 10 to the base material 8, and the protection plate 9 is located above the body protection area.
The first and second rows, the second and third rows, and the third row, so that the lower part of
Since the arrangement intervals of the rows and the fourth rows and the fourth rows and the fifth rows are set, in the forward leaning state of FIG. 8A, the covering distance d becomes longer, and the spine of FIG. In a state in which the distance d is warped, the distance d to be covered is short. That is, the base material 8
Since the distance d covered by the protection plate 9 changes according to the vertical deformation of the base material 8, the base material 8 bends more freely than the conventional configuration in which the upper and lower iron plates 46 are fixed in position as shown in FIG. Therefore, it is possible to eliminate poor comfort due to arranging the protection plate 9 in a plane.

As shown in FIG. 8 (C), the distance d covered by the protective plate 9 is always ensured even if the player turns his back when wearing a bulletproof vest. It goes without saying that the respective intervals are set. Furthermore, by arranging the protection plates in this way,
Even when the upper body is tilted in the lateral direction from the state of standing straight, the distance covered by the row of protective plates close to the tilted direction can be naturally increased according to the deformation of the base material 8 accompanying the operation, The wearing comfort of the bulletproof vest can be improved.

FIG. 9 is a view showing a state in which the upper body is tilted in the horizontal direction. FIG. 9A is a front view showing a state of the protective plate arrangement portion in a case where the body is standing straight, and FIG. () Is a front view showing the state of the protection plate disposition portion when the upper body is inclined in the horizontal direction. In FIG. 9, a hatched portion indicates an area 21 in which the lower part of the protection plate at the upper position covers the upper part of the protection plate at the lower position. FIG. 9B
Shows a case where the area 21a covered on the inclined side becomes larger between the protection plates in the second and third rows from the top. As described above, the relative positions of the protective plate mounting devices 10 in each row can be changed in accordance with the bending and overlapping of the base material caused by the movement of the upper body, so that the comfort can be improved. Further, since a protection plate made of a titanium plate is used as the protection means, the protection performance is extremely high, and a configuration that does not require both the bullet rotation suppressing layer and the high-strength cloth layer can be sufficiently adopted. Also, even if it becomes necessary, the number of high-strength cloths can be reduced, so that the problem of wetting with water and containing a large amount of water as in a conventional configuration in which a large number of aramid fiber cloths are stacked is reduced. It can also reduce stuffiness. Further, since the protective plate is swingably attached to the base material, hot air of the human body can escape from the base material surface between the upper and lower rows, and the heat is reduced.

Further, since the body is protected by the protection plate, when a bullet hits the protection plate, the impact can be diffused to the whole of the protection plate hit by the bullet. Shock can be greatly reduced. Furthermore, in this embodiment, the protection plate destroyed after being shot is replaced by a protection plate mounting device corresponding to the destroyed protection plate as a unit, that is, by re-suturing to the base material, another protection plate is attached. Since the portion of the protective plate wearing device can be used as it is, the body protective clothing can be easily reproduced.

The high-strength cloth layer 6 shown in FIG.
Are stacked, and in this embodiment, AlliedSigna (AlliedSigna) is used.
1) Spectra (raw material) manufactured by stacking the number of sheets satisfying a predetermined bulletproof performance. As the high-strength cloth, for example, as a cloth composed of inorganic fibers, S
Glass fiber, E glass fiber, alumina fiber, zirconia silica fiber, alumina silica fiber, carbon fiber, boron fiber and the like can be exemplified. Further, as the organic fibers, resin fibers such as a polymer polyethylene fiber, a polymer polypropylene fiber, and a polymer polyvinyl alcohol fiber, and a combination of these fibers can be used.

As a resin layer formed of a high-strength synthetic resin, for example, a thermoplastic resin layer, an addition polymer such as polyethylene or polyacrylate can be exemplified. As the thermosetting resin layer, a phenol resin, an epoxy resin or an epoxy resin can be used. Resins and the like can be exemplified. The bullet rotation suppressing layer 5 shown in FIG. 4 is for reducing or suppressing the rotation of the bullet by applying resistance to a bullet or the like, and preventing the bullet from penetrating the high-strength cloth layer 6 provided later. When cotton is used as the bullet rotation suppressing layer 5, the thickness of the cotton can be approximately 5 mm to 2 cm, and the function of suppressing rotation can be exhibited, though it depends on the required bulletproof performance.

As shown in (A), the protection plate arrangement part 4 has a configuration in which the protection plate mounting devices 10 are fixed to a base material (not shown) in four rows in the vertical direction. As shown in FIG. 13B, the protection plate 9 is configured to be long in the waist direction. In the configuration shown in the drawings, the first row of trapezoidal protection plates 9a, the second row,
The fourth and fourth rows are substantially rectangular protective plates 9b, 9c, 9d, respectively.
There is. The reason why the first row is the trapezoidal protection plate 9a is to dispose the protection plate 9 near the neck without hindering the movement of both shoulders. 13A shows a line sewn along the oblique side of the trapezoidal protection plate 9a.
This prevents the trapezoidal protection plate 9a from moving in the bag 17.

As shown in FIG. 14, the protective plates 9 in each row are respectively accommodated in the rectangular bag 17, and the upper region 32 of the bag 17 is fixed to the base material 8 as shown in FIG. Thereby, the protection plate arrangement part 4 is constituted.

As in the third embodiment, by forming each row with one long protective plate, small protective plates are arranged so as to overlap in the waist direction as in the first embodiment. Manufacturing is simpler than in the configuration. As the long protective plate, a ceramic plate, a metal ceramic plate, or the like can be used in addition to the above-mentioned metal plate such as a titanium alloy. By using a JIS second-class titanium alloy used for building materials and the like as the titanium alloy, it is possible to make the structure lightweight and inexpensive. Further, by using the metallic ceramic, it is possible to have the strength and ductility to deform the warhead of a bullet having a high penetration force. Other protective plates include:
A sheet obtained by stacking the high-strength cloths described above in multiple layers and solidifying them with an adhesive or a solid agent such as various adhesives and various resins can also be used. An example of such a fiber solid board is an aramid fiber board. The pressure-sensitive adhesive and the solid agent are preferably composed of an inorganic material. As an example, a trade name: Jena paint (Jner) manufactured by JR East Corporation can be exemplified. In such a fiber solid plate, a plurality of fiber layers can be integrated, and the performance of the blade-proof and bullet-proof can be improved as compared with the case where the fiber layers are stacked.
