[0030] In the preferred embodiment, a reinforcing layer 4 is fixed to the abdominal area of ​​the frontal bulletproof vest body 1. The reinforcing layer 4 is composed of an aramid rubber sheet, a PEUD cloth and an OXFM shock-absorbing sheet. The aramid rubber sheet adopts 1000D aramid fiber and plain weave fabric, and the PEUD cloth adopts ultra-high molecular weight polyethylene fiber. The overall configuration is 6 layers of aramid rubber sheets, 15 layers of PEUD cloth and 1 layer of OXFM shock-absorbing sheet, which can further improve the protective capability of the bulletproof vest.

[0031] Among them, the OXFM shock-absorbing sheet is specifically a polymer copolymer submicroporous convexity-reducing plate. It adopts nano and supercritical foaming technology to prepare strong foam materials with submicron and micron pore sizes. The closed pores of the material are spherical, and the structure of the pores is honeycomb-like. This pore type and structure have excellent mechanical properties, making the OXFM material light, high-strength, high-hardness, high-toughness, and high-energy absorption.

[0032] A plurality of straps 5 are fixed on the front body 1 and the back body 11 of the bulletproof vest. A waist belt 51 is inserted into the inner side of the plurality of straps 5.

Once the external force or pressure disappears, the material can gradually restore its original shape, thereby maintaining the integrity and stability of the elastic reset airbag 22; the initial state of the elastic reset airbag 22 ( Figure 3 ) There is gas inside, remove the one-way air valve 24 from one end of the connector 23, open the opening and closing valve 25, manually apply external force to the covering layer 21, squeeze the elastic reset airbag 22, so that the gas inside is discharged from one end of the connector 23, close the opening and closing valve 25, and connect the one-way air valve 24 to one end of the connector 23, the elastic reset airbag 22 can be deformed under the action of negative pressure ( Figure 2 ), at this time, the opening and closing valve 25 is opened to release the negative pressure inside the elastic reset airbag 22, and the external gas will enter the elastic reset airbag 22 through the one-way air valve 24 and the connector 23. The elastic reset airbag 22 can gradually restore its initial state, that is, it can inhale air, and then provide the buoyancy required for wading, which plays an auxiliary function for the user when wading, and can be used repeatedly, so as to meet the needs of wading function in an environment with changing situations.

[0038] When the utility model is used, the front bulletproof vest body 1 and the back bulletproof vest body 11 can be put on the body and connected with Velcro 3, the belt 51 is inserted into the inner side of the plurality of straps 5, and the hands and tails are connected by buckling. A variety of equipment waist bags are hung on the belt 51 through the multifunctional sleeve hole 52, so that it has the function of carrying a variety of combat equipment. When encountering a wading situation where it is necessary to cross rivers, lakes and ponds, the opening and closing valve 25 is opened to release the negative pressure inside the elastic reset airbag 22, and the external gas will enter the elastic reset airbag 22 through the one-way air valve 24 and the connector 23. The elastic reset airbag 22 can gradually restore its initial state, that is, it can inhale air, and then provide the buoyancy required for wading, which plays an auxiliary function for the user when wading, and can be used repeatedly, so that the demand for wading function can be met in an environment with changing situations.

[0039] The above is based on the ideal embodiment of the utility model. Through the above description, relevant personnel can make various changes and modifications without deviating from the technical concept of the utility model. The technical scope of this utility model is not limited to the content in the specification, and the technical scope must be determined according to the scope of the claims.
