DETAILED DESCRIPTIONS OF PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS

[0017] A puncture-proof structure of the present invention comprises at least two first fiber layers, an intermediate layer and at least two second fiber layers that are stacked and bonded in sequence. A plurality of first fibers of one first fiber layer is arranged to be overlapped with a plurality of first gaps of another of the first fiber layers to enclose the plurality of first gaps; a plurality of second fibers of one second fiber layer is arranged to overlapped with a plurality of second gaps of another of the second fiber layers to enclose the plurality of second gaps, so as to produce the effect of preventing of the front and back of the puncture-proof structure from being penetrated by any sharp object.

[0018] Please refer to FIG. 1, which shows a first embodiment of the puncture-proof structure 1 of the present invention and the puncture-proof structure 1 comprises two first fiber layers (2, 2′), an intermediate layer 3, and two second fiber layers (4, 4′) that are stacked in sequence. The first fiber layer 2 includes a plurality of first woven fibers 21, and the plurality of first woven fibers 21 has a plurality of first gaps 22 therebetween, and each first gap 22 is provided between any two adjacent first woven fibers 21. When the first fiber layer 2 is formed, the plurality of first gaps 22 is respectively filled with hardened resin. The first fiber layer 2′ is arranged to be overlapped and bonded to the bottom surface of the first fiber layer 2, and the first fiber layer 2′ includes a plurality of cross-woven first fibers 21′. In one embodiment, the first fiber layer 2′ may also include a plurality of first fibers 21′ arranged in parallel. A plurality of first fibers 21′ is located below the plurality of first gaps 22 to be overlapped with and enclose the plurality of first gaps 22. The first woven fibers 21 and the first fibers 21′ are respectively Kevlar fibers. In another embodiment, the first woven fibers 21 and the first fibers 21′ may respectively also be high elastic and tensile strength fibers, such as carbon fibers, glass fibers or an ultra high molecular weight polyethylene (UHWPE) fibers.

[0019] The intermediate layer 3 is arranged to be overlapped with and bonded to the bottom surface of the first fiber layer 2′, and the intermediate layer 3 includes a plurality of ceramic plates 31 that is arranged to be horizontally adjacent to each other. Each ceramic plate 31 has a thickness between 3 and 10 mm, and each ceramic plate 31 is a quadrilateral plate. In one embodiment, the intermediate layer 3 may also be a metal sheet having the same size and shape as the first fiber layer (2, 2′) and the second fiber layer (4, 4′).

[0020] The second fiber layer 4 is arranged to be overlapped with and bonded to the bottom surface of the intermediate layer 3. The second fiber layer 4 includes a plurality of second fibers 41 that is cross-woven. In one embodiment, the second fiber layer 4 may also include a plurality of second fibers 41 arranged in parallel. The second fiber layer 4′ is arranged to be overlapped and bonded to the bottom surface of the second fiber layer 4, and the second fiber layer 4′ includes a plurality of second woven fibers 41′ having plurality of second gaps 42′ therebetween. Each second gap 42′ is a gap between any two adjacent second woven fibers 41′. When the second fiber layer 4′ is formed, the plurality of second gaps 42′ is respectively filled with the hardened resin. The plurality of second fibers 41′ is positioned above the plurality of second gaps 42 to be overlapped with and enclose the plurality of second gaps 42′. The second woven fibers 41 and the second fibers 41′ are respectively Kevlar fibers. In another embodiment, the second woven fiber 41 and the second fiber 41′ may also respectively be high elastic and tensile strength fibers, such as carbon fibers, glass fibers or ultra high molecular weight polyethylene (UHWPE) fibers.

[0021] Thereby, as shown in FIG. 2, when the first fiber layer 2 of the front of the present invention is punctured by any sharp object, such as a bayonet or a fruit knife, if it passes through the first gaps 22, it would be blocked by the first fiber 21′ of the first fiber layer 2′ together with the intermediate layer 3, so that any sharp object cannot penetrate it, and thus produce the puncture-proof effect. Since the ceramic plates 31 of the intermediate layer 3 can be made thinner, the weight of the overall structure of the present invention can be reduced to be convenient to carry on. Further, since the second fiber layer 4′ on the back of the puncture-proof structure 1 can also provide blocking effect produced by the second fibers 41 and the intermediate layer 3, the safety for users can be more effectively secured in a dangerous situation.

[0022] Please refer to FIG. 3, which shows a second embodiment of the puncture-proof structure 1 of the present invention, and it is different from the first embodiment in that, a fiber cloth is completely wrapped on outer surfaces of the two first fiber layers. (2, 2′), an intermediate layer 3 and two second fiber layers (4, 4′). The fiber cloth is used as a coating layer 5, so as to wrap and position the intermediate layer 3 to prevent the adjacent ceramic plates 31 of the intermediate layer 3 from being separated from each other. In another embodiment, the coating layer 5 can be also directly wrapped on the outer surfaces of the intermediate layer 3, so as to produce the effect of preventing the adjacent ceramic plates 31 from being separated from each other.

[0023] Please refer to FIGS. 4-6, which show a third embodiment of the puncture-proof structure 1 of the present invention, and it is different from the first embodiment in that, the four lateral parts of the ceramic plate 31 respectively has an inclined plane that extends obliquely from a surface of the ceramic plate 31 toward another surface of the ceramic plate 31. Thereby, when the adjacent ceramic plates 31 are arranged in the reverse direction, the adjacent inclined planes may be in contact with each other, so as to form overlapped regions between the adjacent ceramic plates 31 to prevent the puncture-proof structure 1 from being punctured by any sharp object, and thus to enhance the protective effect.

[0024] To sum up, the present invention can indeed meet its anticipated objects and provide a safe puncture-proof structure that is light to be installed in a backpack or a leather bag to easily carry and is convenient for users to use both the front and the back of the puncture-proof structure without distinction, so as to produce protective effect in any dangerous situation, and can be put into industrial use.
