Armor assembly for vehicle explosion protection
The patent US11976903B2 describes an innovative armor assembly designed to enhance vehicle protection against explosions. The assembly consists of at least two layers: a perforated layer and a covering layer. The perforated layer, made from a material of lower density, features multiple holes that allow for the covering layer, which is of a higher density, to bend into these openings upon an explosion. This design aims to restrict sliding movement between the layers, thereby improving the overall effectiveness of the armor. Additional claims detail the potential inclusion of an auxiliary layer, which can be of equal or greater density than the perforated layer, and the option for an intermediate layer made from a lighter material, such as fabric, to further enhance protection.
Moreover, the claims specify various configurations and dimensions for the openings in the perforated layer, ensuring they are adequately sized to accommodate the bending of the covering layer. The covering layer is characterized by a yield stress greater than 700 MPa, indicating its strength under stress. The assembly is intended for mounting beneath a vehicle's belly, with the potential for the belly itself to serve as an auxiliary layer. This comprehensive design aims to provide robust protection for vehicles, particularly in scenarios where explosive threats are anticipated.
