An armor component that includes a ballistic tile made of, for example, boron carbide or silicon carbide, a plurality of wraps made of ballistic fibers such as carbon fiber, and a metal plate, for example, a steel plate, the metal plate being positioned behind the reverse side of the tile and the wraps being wrapped around the tile and the metal plate.

The present invention relates to a furniture inlay personal protection shield that is removable from furniture to provide personal protection, in an emergency, from bodily harm threats. The furniture inlay personal protection shield comprises an exterior surface inlay that is sized and fabricated to fit into a predefined opening in the furniture surface, a bullet-resistant inner liner affixed to the interior surface of the exterior surface inlay, a one-way viewable bullet-resistant material is integrated into and away from the perimeter of the exterior surface inlay, and at least one handle proximate the bullet-resistant inner liner where a user can, by way of the handle, securely position the bullet-resistant inner liner between the user and the bodily harm threat. Exemplary embodiments include an ammunition impact sensor for detecting bullet impacts on furniture inlay personal protection shield.

An anti-ballistic barrier system with a top shield support, a bottom shield support, and an anti-ballistic shield. A first extendable connector may extend between the anti-ballistic shield and the top shield support. Similarly, a second extendable connector may extend between the anti-ballistic shield and the bottom shield support. A polyester shield cover may extend over the anti-ballistic shield. A top mounting bracket attaches the top shield support to a vertical structure and a bottom mounting bracket attaches the bottom shield support to the vertical structure. The anti-ballistic shield is movable between a retracted position in which the anti-ballistic shield is wrapped around the top shield support and the bottom shield support is detached from the bottom mounting bracket and an extended position in which a majority of the anti-ballistic shield is unwrapped from the top shield support and the bottom shield support is engaged with the bottom mounting bracket.

A body carrier apparatus may include a front carrier and a rear carrier. In some examples, the body carrier apparatus may protect a wearer of the body carrier apparatus from ballistics. In further examples, the body earner apparatus may reduce stress on shoulder muscles while maintaining shoulder mobility.

A protective garment includes a shell and an insert. The shell includes a front layer and a rear layer coupled to the front layer. The front layer and the rear layer form a void therebetween. The insert is disposed within the void. The insert includes a main body defining a first lateral side, a second lateral side opposite the first lateral side, and a bottom edge extending between the first lateral side and the second lateral side. The bottom edge defines a recess between the first lateral side and the second lateral side.
