Antiballistic fabric

摘要

An antiballistic fabric comprises a first fabric ply made of two outer fabric layers separated by at least one inner fabric layer, each of the layers being constructed only from weft fibers laid at angles between about +30 and −30 degrees from the warp and the fibers of the outer layer form non-complementary angles with the fibers of the inner layers, the layers being knitted together in the z-direction. A second equivalent fabric ply is aligned and bound above the first fabric ply.

1. An antiballistic fabric, comprising:
a first fabric ply comprised of two outer layers separated by at least one inner layer, wherein at least one of the two outer layers and the at least one inner layer are constructed only from weft fibers laid at angles between about +30 and −30 degrees from the warp, the angle of the weft fibers of at least one of the two outer fabric layers being not complementary to the angle of the weft fibers of the at least one inner fabric layer, the two outer fabric layers and the at least one inner fabric layer being knitted together in the z-direction; and a second fabric ply comprised of two outer fabric layers separated by at least one inner fabric layer, wherein at least one of the two outer fabric layers and the at least one inner fabric layer are constructed only from weft fibers laid at angles between about +30 and −30 degrees from the warp, the angle of the weft fibers of at least one of the two outer fabric layers being not complementary to the angle of the weft fibers of the at least one inner fabric layer, the two outer fabric layers and the at least one inner fabric layer being knitted together in the z-direction, wherein the lower-most outer fabric layer of the second fabric ply is aligned above the upper-most fabric layer of the first fabric ply, the first fabric ply and the second fabric ply being connected together.
