Armor plated device

Abstract

An armor plated assembly ( 20 ) and a protective wall system ( 120 ) containing a protective material. The armor plated assembly ( 20 ) comprises of a container ( 22 ) having opposing walls ( 26 ) for encompassing the protective material. The assembly ( 20 ) includes an armor device ( 24 ) having a first plate ( 48 ) and a second plate ( 50 ) with one of the opposing walls ( 26 ) sandwiched between the first plate ( 48 ) and the second plate ( 50 ) securing the armor device ( 24 ) to the container ( 22 ). The armor device ( 24 ) impedes the penetration of a projectile through the armor plated assembly ( 20 ). The protective wall system ( 120 ) includes at least two of the armor plated assemblies ( 20 ) with a mechanical connection ( 140 ) between the armor devices ( 126, 134 ) of the armor plated assemblies ( 20 ) for aligning and securing the assemblies ( 20 ) in a stacked orientation. A second embodiment of the protective wall system ( 220 ) includes at least two containers ( 222, 234 ) and a bib ( 232, 236 ) adhered to each of the containers ( 222, 234 ) such that the bibs ( 232, 236 ) overlap in a shingle-like engagement between the stacked containers ( 222, 234 ).

1 .- 22 . (canceled) 
     
     
         23 . A protective wall system for protecting against a penetration of a projectile, said protective wall system comprising:
 a first container having a top, a bottom, two opposing side and a base defining an envelope with a portion of said envelope movable between an open position for receiving a protective material and a closed position for encompassing the protective material;   a first bib coupled to said first container and extending across one of said top, bottom, opposing side and base of said first container;   a second container having a top, a bottom, two opposing side and a base defining an envelope with a portion of said envelope movable between an open position for receiving the protective material and a closed position for encompassing the protective material;   a second bib coupled to said second container and extending across one of said top, bottom, opposing side and base of said second container; and   said first bib overlapping said second bib in a shingle-like engagement for impeding the penetration of a projectile through said protective wall system.   
     
     
         24 . A protective wall system as set forth in  claim 23  wherein said first and second bibs are made of a protective projectile resistant material for providing protection from the projectile. 
     
     
         25 . (canceled) 
     
     
         26 . A protective wall system as set forth in  claim 23  wherein said first bib is attached to said top of said first container and extends over one of said opposing sides of said first container, and wherein said second bib is attached to said top of said second container and extends over one of said opposing sides of said second container. 
     
     
         27 . A protective wall system as set forth in  claim 23  further including a first armor device at least partially disposed within said first container with said first armor device having a first outer plate and a first inner plate with at least one of said opposing walls of said first container being sandwiched between said first outer plate and said first inner plate, and further including a second armor device at least partially disposed within said second container with said second armor device having a second outer plate and a second inner plate with at least one of said opposing walls of said second container being sandwiched between said second outer plate and said second inner plate. 
     
     
         28 . A protective wall system as set forth in  claim 27  wherein said first bib is adhered to said first outer plate and said second bib is adhered to said second outer plate with said first bib extending past said first outer plate onto said second outer plate and over said second bib. 
     
     
         29 . A protective wall system as set forth in  claim 23  wherein each of said first and second containers are made of at least one of a canvas, a synthetic fiber, a burlap, a textile, a fabric, a composite, a polymer and a combination thereof. 
     
     
         30 . A protective wall system as set forth in  claim 23  wherein said opposing walls of each of said first and second containers are further defined by a top and a bottom and two opposing sides with each of said two opposing sides having first and second distal ends and said two opposing sides being connected by said top and said bottom. 
     
     
         31 . A protective wall system as set forth in  claim 30  further including a rounded base extending between said top and said bottom and connected at said first distal end of said two opposing sides with said second distal end defining an opening into said envelope of each of said first and second containers. 
     
     
         32 . A protective wall system as set forth in  claim 31  further including a first inner flap extending from said top and a second inner flap extending from said bottom for folding said first and second inner flaps over said opening to encompass the material in each of said first and second containers. 
     
     
         33 . A protective wall system as set forth in  claim 32  further including a cover flap extending from one of said top and said bottom and a cover fastener on said cover flap for engaging the other of said top and said bottom. 
     
     
         34 . A protective wall system as set forth in  claim 33  wherein said cover fastener is further defined as at least one of a hook and loop fastener, a zipper, a button, a string, a strap, an adhesive, a clasp, a plurality of stitches and a combination thereof.
