Abstract
A bulletproof protective structure (40) is described, composed of a flexible base constituted of a ballistic fabric (42) and of rigid elements (41) of ballistic material adhering to the fabric, wherein the adhesion surface of the rigid elements to the fabric is curved, so as to allow greater flexibility of the structure compared to similar known structures.
Claims11
A bulletproof structure comprising:
- a flexible base including intertwined or unidirectional ballistic fibers on which rigid metallic or ceramic elements are adhered adjacent to each other, wherein a face of said elements adhering to the fibers is convex, the rigid elements adhere to the flexible base for a fraction of said convex surface, and in a plan view the rigid elements have a polygonal or pseudo-polygonal shape, such that there are no voids between sides of two abutting rigid elements.
Dependencies are inferred from the claim text.
