Description

The invention relates to life-saving appliances, namely to safety working vests with body armor, designed to maintain a person on the surface of the water, as well as to protect against damage by bullets, splinters, and can be used by personnel of the marine corps during landing, marine anti-terrorist units and personnel keeping watch on the upper deck of the ships.

Known body armor containing a textile part, belts with buckles for fixing on the body, damping elements, elements of buoyancy and elements of body armor (see description of the Swedish patent WO 9727101, MKI B63C 9/115, F41H 1/02, publ. 31.07.97 g .).

In the well-known bullet-proof vest, the buoyancy element is made in the form of a bulky elongated collar in front of it, filled with bubble polyethylene attached with a zipper, the front part of which is fastened to the chest with a belt with a buckle. The penetration of such a collar by the striking element has practically no effect on the floating means of the bulletproof vest, but its bulkiness is not convenient when performing assigned tasks, for example, when landing on an unequipped coast.

Known body armor with positive buoyancy, containing a textile part, safety belts with buckles for fixing on the body, damping elements, elements of buoyancy and elements of armor protection (see the description of the patent of the Russian Federation No. 2295105, IPC F41H 1/02, B63C 9/125, publ March 10, 2007).

The disadvantage of body armor is its bulkiness, namely, a significant increase in volume during automatic gas filling of a sealed chamber, worsening the ergonomic characteristics of the product. In addition, there is a high probability of damage to the sealed chamber when the striking element hits tangentially from the back.

The sealed chamber in the known vest is located between the armored units in the textile part, the fabric wall of which is laid accordion and fastened to the inner layer of the fabric with the help of “Contact” textile fasteners, which are unfastened by the force arising from filling the chamber with gas, which is unreliable.

The technical task of the invention is the creation of a working safety vest with body armor with improved ergonomic characteristics that do not affect the rescue functions when hit by striking elements, which has maintained positive buoyancy without changing its volume, allowing free movement in water (swimming), as well as increasing the reliability of its operation during operation.

The technical problem is solved in that in a work safety vest with body armor containing the textile part, safety belts with buckles for fixing on the body, damping elements, buoyancy elements and armor protection elements, while the textile part is made of two parts interconnected by a detachable contour connection, external protective and internal floating, with each textile part includes a back section with developed lateral and elongated shoulder parts, made with a cavity for placement body armor elements in the form of plates repeating its contour, and a chest section made shorter than the back section and with a cavity for accommodating buoyancy elements in the form of plates repeating its contour, while adjustable belts with buckles for fixing the back section on the body are fixed on developed lateral and elongated shoulder parts of the outer protective textile, and the chest section is mounted on the back section with the possibility of its quick removal, and the outer protective part of the chest section is additionally equipped with pockets, abzhennymi fasteners, to accommodate rigid two-section armored panels, the outer protective surface of the textile part of the vest is made with horizontally fastened straps for attaching removable pockets to accommodate equipment, and the damping elements are made in the form of ventilation and shock-absorbing plates fixed by detachable connection along the contour on the inner floating surface of the textile part . Armor protection elements are made of fabric based on synthetic fibers with positive buoyancy. The buoyancy elements are made of closed-cell filler. Ventilation and shock-absorbing plates are made of multi-layer weave fabric. Rigid two-section armored panels are made heterogeneous, consisting of a steel armored panel with an anti-bosom composite layer. The textile part is made with holes for water drainage. The detachable connection is made in the form of a Velcro tape. Clasps are made in the form of Velcro tape.

A safety working vest with body armor has improved ergonomic characteristics due to the use of rigid armor panels made in two sections to ensure horizontal bending in the middle of the chest section, as well as body armor and buoyancy elements made in the form of plates that do not change the overall dimensions of the vest and provide the necessary mobility to man.

The safety working vest with armor protection is reliable during operation and long-term storage and provides insurance for personnel during work on the upper deck of the ship and the superstructure of the submarine, maintaining a person who has fallen into the water on the surface of the water, as well as protection against small arms, shrapnel shattering elements .

The implementation of the buoyancy elements of the polymer with closed pores ensures the preservation of constant buoyancy when they are struck by bullets and fragments.

The proposed work safety vest with body armor does not sink in the water, as it has its own positive buoyancy due to the use of fabric based on synthetic fibers as flexible armor blocks, and the additional use of buoyancy elements made of polymer with closed pores provides the proposed vest with increased buoyancy, in addition, it is simplified certification of a vest during storage.

Performing a chest section with a quick-detachable allows in emergency situations, having removed the chest section, reduce the weight and dimensions of the vest, thereby increasing its mobility (maneuverability), and also provide first aid.
