Bulletproof mechanism of body armor vest

Bounce away the fragments formed after the projectile fragments

The first body armor developed in the United States in the 1920s and 1930s relied on overlapping steel plates attached to strong clothing to provide protection.

This body armor and later similar hard body armor play a bulletproof role by bouncing off bullets or shrapnel, or fragmenting the bullet to consume and decompose its energy.

Dissipate the kinetic energy of the warhead through bulletproof materials

Soft body armor, which uses high-performance materials as the main bulletproof material, uses fabrics made of high-strength fibers to "catch" bullets or shrapnel to achieve bulletproof purposes.

Research shows that soft bulletproof vests absorb energy in the following five ways:

1. Deformation of fabric: including deformation in the direction of bullet incidence and tensile deformation in the area near the incidence point.

2. Fabric damage: including fiber fibrillation, fiber breakage, yarn structure disintegration and fabric structure disintegration.

3. Thermal energy: Energy is emitted in the form of heat through friction.

4. Acoustic energy: The energy consumed by the sound emitted by the bullet after it hits the bulletproof layer.

5. Deformation of projectile body.

Three misunderstandings about body armor vest

Body armor is currently a relatively common piece of equipment and is widely used. However, many people do not know much about it and thus have misunderstandings about this type of equipment. Below, Ki Ang body armor vest manufacturer will introduce common three misunderstandings.

First, it can only effectively block bullets, but it has no defense against rifles or machine guns. In fact, it is not the case. From ordinary pistol bullets to more common rifle and machine gun bullets, you can find corresponding bulletproof equipment to achieve a good defensive effect. Today, some elites can even withstand machine gun fire from 10 meters away. Therefore, current bulletproof equipment can not only protect against ordinary pistols, but also provide protection against higher-level lethality.

Second, body armor will cause secondary injuries, and in severe cases, it may cause damage to internal organs. This worry is not unreasonable. After all, the lethality of bullets is obvious to all. It is certainly impossible to avoid minor bruises if you are shot while wearing bulletproof equipment. However, the technology of bulletproof equipment is more advanced now. If the bulletproof level of the equipment is high enough, the probability of injury after being shot while wearing bulletproof equipment will be greatly reduced, and it is almost impossible to have internal organs. Damage and other serious injuries.

Third, this kind of equipment is heavier, and the maneuverability is significantly reduced after wearing it, and the resistance is greater when performing tasks. In fact, the equipment is not as heavy as we think. Generally, a soft outer jacket and appropriate inserts are used to form a body armor with defensive functions. When performing different tasks, appropriate plug-in boards will be selected according to the situation. Generally speaking, the weight will not exceed 5 kilograms. For strong warriors, it can be said that the impact on the action will be minimal.

The above is an introduction to the misunderstandings related to this type of bulletproof vest. Ki Ang bulletproof vest factory has been committed to the research and development, production and sales of high-quality tactical equipment.
