BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
(a) Field of the Invention
The present invention relates to a special-purpose backpack, and, more particularly, to a bulletproof backpack that allows the user to quickly and effectively achieve a bulletproof effect when performing duties or encountering emergency situations.
(b) Description of the Related Art
With the development of the times and the changing social situation, the requirements for backpacks are no longer limited to carrying items. The functional requirements of the backpack are constantly varying as well. However, the common backpacks still only have the function of storing and carrying items, and do not have bulletproof effects, so that once the user is in a dangerous situation, and if the user is not wearing a bulletproof vest, or not carrying a backpack with a bulletproof layer or unable to quickly take out the body armor from the backpack, it would keep the user in an extremely dangerous situation. In view of this, how to propose a special-purpose backpack which is low-key and unobtrusive and could solve the above problems, while allowing users to quickly and efficiently ensure their own safety when performing special duties or staying in dangerous areas, is still a problem to be solved.
SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION
The present invention overcomes the aforementioned problems is distinguished over the prior art by a bulletproof backpack. According to the invention, a bulletproof backpack comprises the following components:
- a backpack body;
- a pair of shoulder straps (for example, shoulder straps) located on the one side of the backpack body;
- a bulletproof panel having a connecting member at one side thereof, a pull rope at the bottom thereof, and a second connecting member at the other side thereof; and
- wherein the pair of shoulder straps detachably have a corresponding connecting member configured to correspond to the position of the connecting member and detachably connected to the connecting member; and
- wherein the pair of shoulder straps also detachably have a second corresponding connecting member configured to correspond to the position of the second connecting member and detachably connected to the second connecting member.
In some embodiments, the bulletproof panel can be used in combination with the corresponding connecting member of the pair of shoulder straps through the connecting member such that the bulletproof panel can correspond to the position of the corresponding connecting member of the pair of shoulder straps and be fixed in front of the chest of the user under a using state, so as to ensure the bulletproof effect. Relatively speaking, the bulletproof panel can correspond to the position of the second corresponding connecting member of the pair of shoulder straps and be used in combination with the second corresponding connecting member of the pair of shoulder straps through the second connecting member such that the bulletproof panel can be fixed behind the back of user (or fixed in a backpack with an opening at the bottom thereof) under a non-use state, so as to making this backpack bulletproof, low-key, and unobtrusive.
The key of the present invention is that when the user wants to achieve a switch from the non-use state to the using state, the user only needs to use the pull rope to poll down the bulletproof panel which is originally fixed behind the back of user (or originally fixed in a backpack with an opening) so that the bulletproof panel will be fixed in front of the chest through the combination of the connecting member and the corresponding connecting member.
Therefore, the present invention has the advantages of easy and rapid installation of bulletproof panel. Moreover, since the bulletproof panel is respectively and detachably connected to the corresponding connecting member and the second corresponding connecting member, the bulletproof function can also be covertly applied to a variety of different shapes and colors of the backpacks such that the backpacks would not be easy to be identified as a backpack having the bulletproof function.

Preferably, the backpack body 11 can be further made of bulletproof material with both light weight and flexibility so as to prevent the bullets from entering the backpack body 11 and reduce the hurt caused by the bullet.
According to the embodiment shown in FIG. 3 with reference to FIGS. 1 to 2, FIG. 3 is divided into two parts: before and after the combination of the corresponding connecting member 14′ of the pair of shoulder straps 12 and before and after the combination of the second corresponding connecting member 15′ of the pair of shoulder straps 12. In one specific example of FIG. 3, the pair of shoulder straps 12 are relatively fixed through a chest strap 121 (for example, through a side release buckle including a male buckle and a female buckle) configured to extend from the corresponding connecting member 14′. It can also be seen from FIG. 3 that when the chest strap 121 is not combined, one end of the chest strap 121 can be respectively connected to the corresponding connecting member 14′ of the pair of shoulder straps 12, and the other end of the chest strap 121 serves as a connecting end (or an opening end) that can be detachably connected to each other.
According to the embodiment shown in FIG. 4 with reference to FIGS. 1 to 3, When the user carries the backpack body 11 during the non-use state as shown in FIG. 2, the second connecting member 15 positioned on one side of the bulletproof panel 13 can be detachably connected to the second corresponding connecting member 15′ of the pair of shoulder straps 12 such that the bulletproof backpack 10 (or the backpack body 11) can be fixed behind the back of the user. In this way, it can make the backpack body 11 body bulletproof, low-key, and unobtrusive. When the user encounters an emergency, the user can rapidly pull down the bulletproof panel 13 by pulling the pull rope 131 of the bulletproof panel 13 so as to achieve a switch from the using state to the non-use state. After that, the user can turn the bulletproof panel 13 to the other side where the connecting member 14 is located, and then the use can have the bulletproof panel 13 being used in combination with the corresponding connecting member 14′ of the pair of shoulder straps 12 through the connecting member 14 so as to achieve a switch from the non-use state to the using state so as to quickly and effectively achieve a bulletproof effect. In addition, given that the corresponding connecting member 14′ of the pair of shoulder straps 12 has been connected to the connecting member 14 of the bulletproof panel 13 during the using state as shown in FIG. 2, the connecting member 14 and the corresponding connecting member 14′ are not marked in FIG. 4.
According to another (second) embodiment of the present invention, the backpack body 11 can further include an accommodation space (not shown in the figures) which is disposed inside the backpack body 11 and is configured to accommodate a second bulletproof panel (not shown in the figures). In this way, even though the bulletproof panel 13 has been fixed in front of the chest of the user during the using state, the second bulletproof panel can still prevent the bullets from entering the backpack body 11 (from the back of the user) and hurting the body.
Further, according to the third embodiment of the present invention, the backpack body 11 can further include an accommodation space (not shown in the figures) which is disposed inside the backpack body 11 and is configured to accommodate the bulletproof panel 13 under the non-use state, and there is an opening located at the bottom of the backpack body 11 such that the pull rope 131 can cause the bulletproof panel 13 to achieve a switch from the non-use state to the using state by taking out the backpack body 11 from the opening. Compared with the embodiment shown in FIGS. 1 to 4, this embodiment can make the bulletproof panel 13 more secret during the non-use state. The user only needs to pull the pull rope 131 which is exposed on the opening such that the user can take the bulletproof panel 13 out of the opening of the backpack body 11, and then according to the way shown in FIGS. 1 to 4, the user turn the bulletproof panel 13 to the other side where the connecting member 14 is located, and then the use can have the bulletproof panel 13 being used in combination with the corresponding connecting member 14′ of the pair of shoulder straps 12 through the connecting member 14 so as to achieve a switch from the non-use state to the using state. Preferably, the accommodation space of the backpack body 11 can further include a mezzanine space (not shown in the figures) such that the mezzanine space is configured to accommodate a second bulletproof panel (not shown in the figures). In this way, even though the bulletproof panel 13 has been fixed in front of the chest of the user, the second bulletproof panel can still prevent the bullets from entering the backpack body 11 (from the back of the user) and hurting the body.
