Description

La présente invention se rapporte à des organes de protection du corps humain, notamment contre les balles et/ou les coups, en particulier sous la forme de vêtements, par exemple un gilet pare-balles.The present invention relates to protective organs of the human body, especially against bullets and / or blows, particularly in the form of clothing, for example a bulletproof vest.

On connaît déjà du brevet européen EP 1729084 au nom de la demanderesse, un gilet pare-balles qui est léger et qui permet d'arrêter les balles en limitant le plus possible la déformation d'une partie du gilet située contre le corps, ce qui permet d'éviter ou pour le moins de diminuer tout traumatisme à celui-ci.We already know about the European patent EP 1729084 in the name of the plaintiff, a bulletproof vest that is light and allows to stop the balls by limiting as much as possible the deformation of a portion of the vest located against the body, which avoids or at least to reduce any trauma to it.

Ce gilet pare-balles de l'art antérieur est constitué par un empilement de panneaux en tissu dʹaramide, chaque panneau étant unitaire, l'empilement de panneaux en tissu d'aramide comportant au moins un premier panneau ou un sous-empilement de premiers panneaux et un deuxième panneau ou un sous-empilement de deuxièmes panneaux, le ou chaque deuxième panneau comportant une série associée de fils de renforcement, chaque fil de la série de fils associée au deuxième panneau passant alternativement d'un côté du deuxième panneau à l'autre côté du deuxième panneau sans passer ni à travers un autre deuxième panneau, ni à travers un premier panneau.This bulletproof vest of the prior art is constituted by a stack of panels made of aramid fabric, each panel being unitary, the stack of aramid fabric panels comprising at least a first panel or a sub-stack of first panels. and a second panel or sub-stack of second panels, the or each second panel having an associated series of reinforcing wires, each wire of the series of wires associated with the second panel alternately passing from one side of the second panel to the second panel. other side of the second panel without passing through another second panel or through a first panel.

La présente invention vise à perfectionner cet organe de protection du corps humain contre les balles, et notamment les gilets pare-balles de l'art antérieur, en proposant un organe pare-balles du genre décrit ci-dessus qui soit encore plus efficace pour protéger la personne portant l'organe, sans pour autant sacrifier le confort du porteur et notamment sans que l'organe soit plus épais ou moins souple que les organes de l'art antérieur.The present invention aims to improve this protective body of the human body against bullets, and in particular the bullet-proof vests of the prior art, by proposing a bullet-proof body of the kind described above which is even more effective for protecting the person carrying the organ, without sacrificing the comfort of the wearer and in particular without the body is thicker or less flexible than the organs of the prior art.

Suivant l'invention, le deuxième panneau ou le sous-empilement de deuxièmes panneaux est disposé entre le premier panneau ou le sous-empilement de premiers panneaux et le côté tourné vers l'extérieur de l'organe de protection.According to the invention, the second panel or the sub-stack of second panels is disposed between the first panel or the sub-stack of first panels and the outward-facing side of the guard.

De préférence, le deuxième panneau ou le sous-empilement de deuxièmes panneaux se trouve le plus à l'extérieur dans l'empilement de panneaux.Preferably, the second panel or sub-stack of second panels is the outermost in the stack of panels.

De manière surprenante, en plaçant le ou les deuxièmes panneaux (qui sont constitués chacun d'un panneau d'aramide traversé de part en part par une série de fils de renforcement qui passent d'un côté et de l'autre du panneau alternativement en étant en contact avec les surfaces supérieure et inférieure de leur panneau respectif) du côté extérieur par rapport au(x) premier(s) panneau(x), on obtient une protection contre les balles qui est particulièrement efficace. Dans le même temps, l'organe, notamment le gilet est d'une grande souplesse et est facile et agréable à porter. En particulier, l'épaisseur du gilet est petite.Surprisingly, by placing the second panel or panels (each consisting of an aramid panel traversed from one side to the other by a series of reinforcing wires which pass from one side and the other of the panel alternately to being in contact with the upper and lower surfaces of their respective panels) on the outer side with respect to the first panel (s), bullet protection is obtained which is particularly effective. At the same time, the body, especially the vest is very flexible and is easy and comfortable to wear. In particular, the thickness of the vest is small.

De préférence, il est prévu dans le deuxième sous-empilement entre 3 et 5 deuxièmes panneaux et/ou il est prévu dans le premier sous-empilement entre 10 et 15 premiers panneaux.Preferably, there is provided in the second sub-stack between 3 and 5 second panels and / or it is provided in the first sub-stack between 10 and 15 first panels.

De préférence, pour chaque deuxième panneau, les fils de la série associée de fils de renforcement s'étendent parallèlement les uns aux autres, et notamment dans la direction verticale, telle que définie lorsque l'organe est porté.Preferably, for each second panel, the son of the associated series of reinforcing son extend parallel to each other, and in particular in the vertical direction, as defined when the body is worn.

Suivant un mode de réalisation préférée de l'invention, les panneaux de l'empilement de panneaux, constitué à la fois des premiers et des deuxièmes panneaux, sont maintenus ensemble par des fils de couture ou de liaison, notamment au niveau des bords périphériques des panneaux.According to a preferred embodiment of the invention, the panels of the stack of panels, consisting of both the first and second panels, are held together by sewing or connecting threads, especially at the peripheral edges of the panels.

Suivant un mode de réalisation préférée de l'invention, chaque panneau est constitué d'un tissu de fibres d'aramide, de préférence noyé dans une couche de matière thermoplastique.According to a preferred embodiment of the invention, each panel is made of a fabric of aramid fibers, preferably embedded in a layer of thermoplastic material.

De préférence, le poids d'un premier panneau est compris entre 100 et 400 g/m2, notamment entre 200 et 300 g/m2 par exemple est égal à environ 232g/m2. De préférence, son épaisseur est comprise entre 0,10 et 0,5 mm, notamment entre 0,15 et 0,4 mm, par exemple est égale à 0,3 mm.Preferably, the weight of a first panel is between 100 and 400 g / m 2 , especially between 200 and 300 g / m 2 for example is equal to about 232 g / m 2 . Preferably, its thickness is between 0.10 and 0.5 mm, in particular between 0.15 and 0.4 mm, for example is equal to 0.3 mm.

On peut notamment réaliser les premiers panneaux à partir de fibres en un matériau à base de para-aramide (poly-para-phénylène téréphtalamide) connu sous le nom de Goldflex (marque déposée) disponible auprès de la Société Honeywell.In particular, the first panels made from fibers can be made of a material based on para-aramid (poly-para-phenylene terephthalamide) known under the name Goldflex (registered trademark) available from Honeywell.

En ce qui concerne les deuxièmes panneaux, ceux-ci sont également constitués de tissu en fibre d'aramide. De préférence, leur poids est compris entre 300 et 700 g/m2, notamment entre 400 et 600 g/m2, par exemple égal à 500 g/m2. Leur épaisseur est comprise entre 0,20 mm et 0,60 mm notamment entre 0,30 mm et 0,50 mm par exemple 0,45 mm et 0,46 mm. Ils peuvent notamment être en Twaron, disponible auprès de la société Teijin ou en Kevlar, disponible auprès de la société Dupont. D'autres matériaux analogues (soies d'araignées, etc...) sont également possibles pour les premiers ou deuxièmes panneaux.Regarding the second panels, these are also made of aramid fiber fabric. Preferably, their weight is between 300 and 700 g / m 2 , in particular between 400 and 600 g / m 2 , for example equal to 500 g / m 2 . Their thickness is between 0.20 mm and 0.60 mm, especially between 0.30 mm and 0.50 mm, for example 0.45 mm and 0.46 mm. They can especially be in Twaron, available from the company Teijin or Kevlar, available from the company Dupont. Other similar materials (spider silks, etc ...) are also possible for the first or second panels.

De préférence, les fils de renforcement sont en PES et ont de préférence un titre dTex compris entre 60 et 150, notamment entre 80 et 130, par exemple 110.Preferably, the reinforcing threads are made of PES and preferably have a Tex titer of between 60 and 150, in particular between 80 and 130, for example 110.

En se reportant au dessin, on décrit maintenant un mode de réalisation préférée de l'invention, donné uniquement à titre d'exemple.

  • A la figure 1, il est représenté une vue en perspective de deux sous-empilements de premiers et de deuxièmes panneaux ;
  • La figure 2 représente les deux sous-empilements de panneaux de la figure 1 montés et empilés les uns aux autres en un empilement logé dans une poche de réception formée dans un gilet pare-balles ; et
  • La figure 3 est une vue en coupe longitudinal suivant la ligne A-A du panneau avant du sous empilement de deuxièmes panneaux de la figure 1.
Referring to the drawing, a preferred embodiment of the invention will now be described, given by way of example only.
  • To the figure 1 , there is shown a perspective view of two sub-stacks of first and second panels;
  • The figure 2 represents the two sub-stacks of panels of the figure 1 mounted and stacked to each other in a stack housed in a receiving pocket formed in a bulletproof vest; and
  • The figure 3 is a longitudinal sectional view along the line AA of the front panel of the sub-stack of second panels of the figure 1 .

A la figure 1, il est représenté respectivement à gauche et à droite un sous-empilement de premiers panneaux 1 et un sous-empilement de deuxièmes panneaux 2. Les premiers panneaux sont chacun constitués d'un tissu en fibre d'aramide à un ou plusieurs plis, notamment en fibres de Goldflex, qui est noyé dans une couche de matière thermoplastique. Chaque premier panneau est donc rendu unitaire et d'un seul tenant par l'enrobage de matière thermoplastique. Le sous-empilement comporte ici 12 premiers panneaux. A la partie droite de la figure 1 il est représenté le sous-empilement de deuxièmes panneaux 2. Chaque deuxième panneau est constitué d'un tissu d'aramide, notamment à base de fibres de Twaron, enrobé d'une couche de matière thermoplastique qui rend chaque deuxième panneau unitaire et d'un seul tenant. Chaque deuxième panneau du sous-empilement de deuxièmes panneaux 2 comporte une série de fils 3 de renforcement. Comme représenté à la figure, chaque fil 3 de renforcement s'étend verticalement c'est-à-dire dans la direction verticale lorsque le gilet est porté comme à la figure 2. Chaque fil 3 passe alternativement d'un côté et de l'autre du deuxième panneau associé, en restant sensiblement en contact avec celui-ci, notamment avec ses faces extérieure et intérieure.To the figure 1 , on the left and on the right is represented respectively a sub-stack of first panels 1 and a sub-stack of second panels 2. The first panels are each made of a fabric of aramid fiber with one or more plies, in particular in Goldflex fibers, which is embedded in a layer of thermoplastic material. Each first panel is thus made unitary and in one piece by the coating of thermoplastic material. The sub-stack comprises here 12 first panels. On the right side of the figure 1 the second panel is constituted by an aramid fabric, in particular made of Twaron fibers, coated with a layer of thermoplastic material which makes each second panel unitary and one piece. Each second panel of the second panel sub-stack 2 comprises a series of reinforcing son 3. As shown in the figure, each reinforcing thread 3 extends vertically, that is to say in the vertical direction when the vest is worn as in figure 2 . Each wire 3 passes alternately from one side to the other of the second associated panel, remaining substantially in contact therewith, in particular with its outer and inner faces.

L'intervalle de séparation de deux fils verticaux est compris entre 3 et 10 mm, de préférence entre 4 et 6 mm et notamment est égal à environ 5 mm. Pour un panneau ayant une hauteur d'environ 46,5 cm pour une largeur d'environ 53 cm, il y a 106 fils 3 de renforcement. Chaque deuxième panneau 2 est un tissu en fibre d'aramide notamment en Twaron, qui est une marque déposée par la société Teijin. On pourrait cependant également la fabriquer en Kevlar qui est une marque déposée de la société Dupont.The separation interval of two vertical son is between 3 and 10 mm, preferably between 4 and 6 mm and in particular is equal to about 5 mm. For a panel having a height of about 46.5 cm for a width of about 53 cm, there are 106 son 3 of reinforcement. Each second panel 2 is a fabric of aramid fiber including Twaron, which is a registered trademark by the company Teijin. However, it could also be made Kevlar which is a registered trademark of the company Dupont.

L'ensemble tissu d'aramide plus fils de renforcement peut être noyé dans une matière thermoplastique. Alternativement, le tissu d'aramide peut être noyé dans une couche de matière thermoplastique et les fils de renforcement piqués dans l'ensemble tissu plus couche. L'empilement constitué des deux sous-empilements 1 et 2 disposés l'un à la suite de l'autre est disposé dans une poche 5 formée dans le gilet 6 pare-balles. Le sous-empilement de deuxièmes panneaux est disposé du côté extérieur par rapport au sous-empilement de premiers panneaux.The aramid fabric assembly plus reinforcement yarns may be embedded in a thermoplastic material. Alternatively, the aramid fabric may be embedded in a layer of thermoplastic material and the reinforcing yarns stitched into the overall fabric plus layer. The stack consisting of two sub-stacks 1 and 2 arranged one after the other is arranged in a pocket 5 formed in the vest 6 bulletproof. The sub-stack of second panels is disposed on the outer side relative to the sub-stack of first panels.

Comme on le voit à la figure 3, le fil 3 de renforcement passe d'un côté à l'autre du deuxième panneau 2 sans passer à travers d'autres panneaux. Le fil est sensiblement en contact alternativement avec la face avant du panneau et sa face arrière.As we see in figure 3 , the reinforcement thread 3 passes from one side to the other of the second panel 2 without passing through other panels. The wire is substantially in contact alternately with the front face of the panel and its rear face.

En outre, l'ensemble des panneaux 1 et 2 formés par les deux sous-empilements de premiers et deuxièmes panneaux sont reliés entre eux par des fils de couture 4 qui passent à travers l'ensemble des premiers et deuxièmes panneaux pour les lier entre eux. Ces fils 4 s'étendent de préférence au niveau des bords des panneaux comme représenté à la figure notamment.In addition, all of the panels 1 and 2 formed by the two sub-stacks of first and second panels are interconnected by sewing threads 4 which pass through all the first and second panels to bind them together. . These son 4 preferably extend at the edges of the panels as shown in the figure in particular.
