  By the way, the bullet may come from where it hits the human body without knowing where it hits the human body. On the other hand, in the bulletproof vest as described in Patent Document 1, since the neck protrudes from the hole of the cover sheet and the neck is exposed from the cover sheet, the neck of the human body cannot be protected from bullets and the like. .

  Accordingly, an object of the present invention is to provide a bulletproof device and a bulletproof garment that can accurately protect the neck of a human body from bullets and the like.

  Here, in order to protect the human body's neck from bullets and the like, it is considered the simplest and most effective to cover the neck of the human body with a bulletproof material. It has been clarified that simply covering the neck cannot protect the neck accurately. That is, as shown in FIG. 7, when the bullet M hits the end of the bulletproof material 100 (upper and lower ends of the cylinder) in a state where the neck is covered with the bulletproof material 100, the bullet M is the bulletproof material 100. Without stopping, the trajectory is changed (turned) toward the human body. This is because the bullet M is directed toward the lower strength, and when the bullet M hits the end of the bulletproof material 100, the human body cannot be protected accurately. As a result, it was concluded that it is necessary to prevent the bullet M from hitting the end of the bulletproof material 100 in order to protect the neck (human body) accurately.

  Further, as a result of the inventor's investigation and research, it has been found that the neck (human body) cannot be protected accurately even when the configuration shown in FIG. 8 is adopted. That is, the neck protector 101, which is made of a fiber bulletproof material and protects the circumference of the human body in a cylindrical shape, and the neck protector 102 which protects the neck circumference of the human body, includes the neck protector 101 and the neck protector 102. Are covered with bag-like covers 101A and 102A. Then, the cover 101A of the neck protector 101 and the cover 102A of the neck protector 102 are connected in a state where the lower end of the neck protector 101 is in contact with the inner end (inner end) of the neck protector 102. In such a configuration, it has been found that the bullet M does not stop in an area about 2 cm from the lower end of the neck protector 101 and an area about 2 cm from the inner end of the lower neck protector 102. In other words, it has been found that an area of about 6 cm in total, which is about 3 cm from the lower end of the neck protector 101 and about 3 cm from the inner end of the lower neck protector 102, is unprotected. For this reason, in order to securely protect the neck (human body), it has been concluded that it is necessary to prevent the bullet M from hitting an area of about 3 cm from the lower end of the neck protector 101.

  Furthermore, as a result of the inventor's investigation and research, as shown in FIG. 9, when the fiber bulletproof material 103 is bent to protect the human body's neck and lower neck, It turned out that the probability that the bullet M penetrates was very high.

From the above, in order to achieve the above-mentioned object, the invention according to claim 1 is a cylindrical shape made of a bulletproof material, a neck protector for protecting the circumference of a human body, and a sheet shape made of a bulletproof material. A mounting hole into which the neck protector is inserted is formed. The neck protector protects the lower neck of the human body, and is fixed to the lower end of the outer peripheral surface of the neck protector. A bulletproof device, comprising: a belt-like stopper extending around the entire circumference and positioning the neck protector at a predetermined distance or more from a lower end of the neck protector in a state where the neck protector is inserted into the mounting hole. is there.

According to a second aspect of the present invention, in the bulletproof device according to the first aspect, the neck protector and the lower neck protector in a state in which the neck protector is inserted into a mounting hole of the lower neck protector conform to an outer shape. And a cover fixed to the neck protector and the neck protector .

  According to a third aspect of the present invention, in the bulletproof device according to the first or second aspect, the lower neck protector includes a front protector positioned on the front side of the human body and a back protector positioned on the rear side of the human body. The front protector and the back protector are joined along the ridges of both shoulders of the human body.

According to a fourth aspect of the present invention, in the bulletproof device according to any one of the first to third aspects, an outer diameter of the neck protector is such that the neck protector can be inserted into a neck insertion hole of an existing bulletproof clothing. It is set, The said neck protector is detachable with respect to the said existing bulletproof clothing by inserting or removing from the said neck insertion hole, It is characterized by the above-mentioned.

According to a fifth aspect of the present invention, a cylindrical body made of a bulletproof material, a neck protector that protects the circumference of the human body, and a mounting hole that is made of the bulletproof material and into which the neck protector is inserted, are formed. A body protector that protects the lower side of the neck protector, and is fixed to a lower end portion of the outer peripheral surface of the neck protector, and extends to the entire outer periphery of the neck protector, and the neck protector is inserted into the mounting hole. A bulletproof garment comprising a belt-like stopper for positioning the peripheral edge of the mounting hole of the trunk protector at a predetermined distance or more from the lower end of the neck protector .

According to the first aspect of the present invention, the lower neck protector is disposed so as to be located at a predetermined distance or more from the lower end of the neck protector . That is, the lower end portion of the neck protector (a predetermined distance portion from the lower end) is covered by the stopper fixed to the neck lower protector. For this reason, the bullet does not hit the lower end of the neck protector, and the bullet hits only above the lower end of the neck protector. Further, the bullets stop without being bent above the lower end portion, and the neck of the human body can be accurately protected from bullets and the like. That is, it is possible to prevent a bullet hitting the human body's neck from bending and entering the human body.

According to the second aspect of the present invention, the cover that covers the neck protector and the neck protector along the outer shape is fixed to the neck protector and the neck protector. Can be prevented.

  According to the invention described in claim 3, since the front protector and the back protector of the lower neck protector are joined along the ridge lines of both shoulders of the human body, the lower neck protector is made of a highly rigid bulletproof material. However, the front protector and the back protector bend toward the human body and can be attached in close contact with the lower neck.

According to the invention described in claim 4, since the bulletproof device is detachable from the existing bulletproof clothing having the neck insertion hole , the existing bulletproof clothing can be worn by attaching the bulletproof device to the existing bulletproof clothing. Even so, the neck of the human body can be accurately protected from bullets.

According to the fifth aspect of the present invention, the belt-shaped stopper fixed to the lower end portion of the outer peripheral surface of the neck protector causes the peripheral portion of the mounting hole of the trunk protector to be positioned at a predetermined distance or more from the lower end of the neck protector. Therefore, similarly to the first aspect of the invention, the neck of the human body can be protected accurately from bullets and the like.

  The present invention will be described below based on the illustrated embodiments.
