Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0035] Please see Figure 1-5 A multi-functional bulletproof apron, comprising two parts: a front apron and a back apron;

[0036] The front apron includes a tactical waistband 5, made of high-strength nylon. A removable bulletproof layer (such as aramid fiber) can be added to the waist area to form a tactical waist belt, enhancing waist protection. Both sides of the tactical waist belt 5 have elastic waistbands 4, using a combination of elastic webbing and Velcro, allowing for quick adjustment of tightness according to the wearer's waist size, ensuring a secure fit and preventing movement during exercise. The top side of the tactical waist belt 5 has two quick-release buckles 6, which connect to the corresponding interface on the waist of the bulletproof vest, enabling quick assembly and disassembly with the upper body protection system, enhancing the overall continuity of protection. The bottom side of the tactical waist belt 5 features two side leg guards 1, a groin guard 2, and two front leg guards 3. The groin guard 2, located in the center of the bottom of the tactical waist belt, uses a three-dimensional plastic structure, molded according to the curves of the human groin and upper thigh. The inner layer is filled with breathable sponge padding, and the outer layer is covered with an aramid protective layer. The edges are finished with binding to reduce friction. The front leg guards (3) are symmetrically distributed on both sides of the groin protector, fanning out to cover the front of the thigh. They feature a striped overlapping design, with adjacent strips overlapping by 3-5cm and secured with stitching to ensure unrestricted joint flexion during movement. The side leg guards (1) connect to the outer edge of the front leg guards, extending towards the side of the thigh. The ends are cut in an arc shape, covering the outer thigh up to 10cm above the knee, increasing the lateral protection range.

[0037] The back apron consists of a layered protective outer cushion 7 and a protective inner cushion 8. The upper layer is the protective outer cushion 7, and the lower layer is the protective inner cushion 8. The upper protective outer cushion 7 is made of polyethylene (PE) material, 3-5mm thick, with a waterproof coating to effectively prevent mud and water penetration. In extremely cold environments, the low thermal conductivity of polyethylene provides insulation. The lower protective inner cushion 8 is made of aramid woven fabric and non-woven fabric composite, 8-10mm thick, covering the buttocks and upper thighs. It is fixed to the outer cushion with sewing thread, forming a double-layer protective structure to meet the protection needs of sitting or ambush positions. The protective inner cushion 8 is equipped with an adjustable waist belt 9, with the two ends connected by quick-release buckles 10. The adjustable waist belt 9 is made of wide nylon webbing, running through the waist area of ​​the protective inner cushion, and the two ends are connected by quick-release buckles 10. When wearing, the length of the webbing can be adjusted according to the waist circumference to ensure a tight fit between the back apron and the front waist belt.

[0038] The bulletproof apron consists of an inner fabric layer, an outer fabric layer, and a protective layer. The inner and outer fabric layers are sewn together to wrap the protective layer.

[0039] The core protective layer is composed of an aramid spliced ​​fabric (outer layer, impact resistant), an aramid woven fabric (middle layer, shrapnel resistant), and a non-woven fabric (inner layer, knife and cone resistant), bonded together by a hot-pressing process. The total thickness is controlled between 5-8mm, meeting the Level II bulletproof standard in GA68-2019 "Police Bulletproof Vest," and can withstand 9mm pistol bullets and knife / cone penetration. The high-temperature resistance of aramid material (200-300℃) allows it to maintain its protective performance in fire or high-temperature environments.

[0040] Outer fabric layer: Made of flame-retardant aramid fiber and tear-resistant nylon blended fabric, with honeycomb-shaped breathable holes (pore diameter 2-3mm, spacing 5mm) formed by laser cutting process, reducing the overall weight while improving breathability; the surface is treated with nano coating to achieve waterproof (water repellency level ≥4), infrared radiation protection (infrared reflectivity ≥80%) and antibacterial (antibacterial rate ≥99%) functions.

[0041] Inner fabric layer: Made of a blend of infrared-resistant viscose fiber and antibacterial cotton, with an added mesh breathable layer in the crotch area. The air convection channel is formed through the ventilation holes and the laser-cut holes in the outer fabric layer to improve heat dissipation efficiency.

[0042] Design of key functional components

[0043] 1. Tactical integration and load capacity

[0044] Load-bearing rings: Metal load-bearing rings (load ≥ 500 kg) are installed on both sides and the back of the tactical waist belt. They can be connected to descent ropes or attached to magazine pouches, tactical flashlights and other accessories to meet the needs of suspension descent or rapid retrieval of equipment in special operations.

[0045] Quick-release system: The quick-release buckle 6 of the front windshield waist belt and the connection structure with the bulletproof vest adopt a magnetic and buckle double locking design. In an emergency, the vest can be quickly separated by pressing the unlock button with one hand.

[0046] 2. Ergonomic optimization

[0047] Sports adaptability: The joints of the groin protector, side leg guards and front leg guards are stitched at 45° to simulate the angle of human joint movement, ensuring that the protective components bend naturally with the body when squatting or riding, with a maximum range of motion of up to 180°.

[0048] Lightweight design: By laser-cutting the outer fabric layer (reducing weight by about 15%) and using a zoned protective structure (using thin fabric in non-critical parts), the overall weight is controlled at 1.5-2kg, which is lower than traditional bulletproof shorts (about 2.5kg).

[0049] Wearing and maintenance

[0050] 1. Wearing process

[0051] Align the tactical waistband of the front apron with your waist and initially secure it using the elastic waistband 4.

[0052] Adjust the adjustable waist belt 9 of the back apron to make the protective seat cushion fit the buttocks, and lock it in place by quick-release buckle 2 10.

[0053] Connect the quick-release buckle 6 of the front waist belt to the bulletproof vest to complete the overall donning process.

[0054] 2. Maintenance and upkeep

[0055] Hand wash or machine wash (cold water gentle cycle), avoid using bleach;

[0056] If the protective layer is subjected to impact or puncture, the damage must be checked in time. The damaged area must be replaced as a whole and cannot be repaired locally.

[0057] Store in a dry, well-ventilated environment, away from direct sunlight, and regularly check the functionality of quick-release buckles, Velcro, and other components.

[0058] Through the above implementation methods, this bulletproof apron achieves an organic combination of protective performance, comfort, and tactical practicality, making it suitable for the waist-lower protection needs of combat personnel in various scenarios such as counter-terrorism, urban warfare, and special operations.

[0059] The present invention and its embodiments have been described above. This description is not restrictive, and the accompanying drawings are only one embodiment of the present invention; the actual structure is not limited thereto. In conclusion, if those skilled in the art are inspired by this description and design similar structures and embodiments without departing from the inventive spirit of the present invention, such designs should fall within the protection scope of the present invention.
