Abstract

An armoring part for a vehicle includes a steel plate made of at least partially hot formed and press hardened armor steel and having a hardness of 380 to 760 Vickers (HV). Applied on at least one side of the steel plate is a coat which is made of a metal material which is softer than a metal material of the armor steel. The coat is a thermally applied layer and has a hardness of 10 to 230 Vickers (HV).

Claims

exact text as granted — not AI-modified
What is claimed is: 
     
         1 . A three-dimensionally formed armoring part for a vehicle, comprising:
 a steel plate made of at least partially hot formed and press hardened armor steel and having a hardness of 380 to 760 Vickers (HV); and   a coat applied on at least one side of the steel plate and made of a metal material which is softer than a metal material of the armor steel, said coat being a thermally applied layer and having a hardness of 10 to 230 Vickers (HV).   
     
     
         2 . The armoring part of  claim 1 , wherein the coat is joined to the steel plate by a form fit and/or force fit. 
     
     
         3 . The armoring part of  claim 1 , wherein the coat is made of aluminum or an aluminum alloy.
