BOMB DISPOSAL SUIT WITH BACK PROTECTOR

摘要

A bomb disposal suit (16) includes a jacket (24), trousers (14), and a back protector (20) connected between the jacket and the trousers. The back protector includes a body of impact resistant material having a plenum with an intake opening (100) to receive forced air and with outlet openings to direct forced air out of the plenum. A fan forces air into the intake opening. The back protector can transmit load vertically from the jacket to the trousers, for example, via a back plate.
