Description

II. BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION

1. Field of the Invention

The present invention relates to a protective Jacket armor and, more particularly, to a protective Jacket armor that protects a user from some ammunition using a double protective Jacket armor.

2. Description of the Related Art

Several designs for a protective armor have been designed in the past. None of them, however, include memory foam to fit better to the body of a user.

Applicant believes that a related reference corresponds to U.S. Pat. No. 7,571,493 B1 issued for an armored garment for protection. Applicant believes that another related reference corresponds to U.S. Pat. No. 7,636,948 issued for a combat shirt and armor system None of these references, however, teach of a Jacket made of multiple materials including memory foam and a para-aramid synthetic fiber which allow a user to be protected from some ammunition as well as stabbings.

Other documents describing the closest subject matter provide for a number of more or less complicated features that fail to solve the problem in an efficient and economical way. None of these patents suggest the novel features of the present invention.

III. SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION

It is one of the objects of the present invention to provide a protective Jacket armor that includes a Kevlar layer to protect a user from some ammunition.

It is another object of this invention to provide a protective Jacket armor that includes a removable shirt assembly with the shape of a shirt to increase protection of the jacket.

It is still another object of the present invention to provide a protective Jacket armor that includes pockets to accommodate bullet proof plates.

It is yet another object of this invention to provide such a device that is inexpensive to implement and maintain while retaining its effectiveness.

Further objects of the invention will be brought out in the following part of the specification, wherein detailed description is for the purpose of fully disclosing the invention without placing limitations thereon.
