ELEMENT MADE FROM CERAMIC-BASED ARMOUR TO BE USED IN ARMOUR Russian patent published in 2010 - IPC F41H5/04 

FIELD: weapon.

SUBSTANCE: group of inventions refers to armoured panels. There proposed is armoured panel intended for protection against shells, which contains layer of three-dimensional armour elements cast in ceramic material with integrated intermediate device made in the form of a tooth on three-dimensional armour element. Each tooth is arranged so that it can interact with adjacent three-dimensional armour element for providing almost homogeneous gap for connection layer between adjacent elements. Three-dimensional element is also proposed for the above armour. Three-dimensional armour element can contain a tooth on each side. Teeth provided on each side of three-dimensional element are preferably arranged so that they can be completely located on one half of its side; at that, teeth on adjacent sides of adjacent three-dimensional elements are completely arranged on opposite half of adjacent sides of three-dimensional elements.

EFFECT: increasing level of ballistic protection.
