Abstract
A ballistic resistant material and structure and methods for allowing and preventing projectiles from passing through the ballistic resistant defense structure. The ballistic resistant defense structure involves a ballistic multilayer arrangement comprised of V-Profiles 100 which are further comprised of V-shaped wedges arranged adjacent to each other, spaced slightly apart, with gaps. The gaps between the V-shaped wedges expand or contract depending on which side of the V-Profile a projectile strikes.
Claims20
A defense structure comprising:
- one or more V profiles, wherein the one or more V profiles each comprise:
- more than one V-shaped wedges, each V-shaped wedge comprising:
- two side walls that form a V;
- wedge prongs that extend in from one end of each of the side walls, bending towards the center of the V at a slight angle;
- and a flat material inserted between the wedge prongs;
- wherein the more than one V-shaped wedges are arranged adjacent to each other in a selective orientation;
- wherein the more than one V-shaped wedges are spaced slightly apart with slight gaps between each V-shaped wedge;
- and
- an outside receptor to the one or more V profiles, that runs flush against and parallel to the length of one side of the selective oriented V-shaped wedges.
