A human body protector comprising a front layer and a rear layer. In this protector, each layer is comprised of a plurality of segments having a regular hexagon shape and arranged by placing circumferential edges of adjacent segments in contact with each other in a state wherein spaces between the adjacent segments are substantially eliminated, and joining lines between the adjacent segments of one layer are covered by the segments of the other layer, and through apertures at the joining points, existing because joining lines of the segments of one layer overlap the joining points of another layer, are closed by a retaining members. The construction of the protector of the present invention provides an excellent protection against penetration of the protector by a sharp pointed blade, such as an ice pick.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION It is an object of the present invention to provide a human body protector having a blade-proof function capable of withstanding a penetration action of a sharp pointed blade.
e.
g.
, an ice pick, and having a permeability and a body fitting which will enable the protector to be worn in the same condition as for wearing a conventional or regular protector, in all seasons.
The object of the present invention is achieved by a human body protector having a flexibility that makes it capable of fitting the human body, characterized in that the protector comprises a front layer consisting of a group of segments of blade-proof plate having a plurality of connecting apertures and spread over the body by placing the circumferential edges of each segment in contact in a state wherein spaces between the adjacent segments are substantially eliminated, and a rear layer consisting of another group of segments of blade-proof plate made and spread over the body in the same manner as the segments of the front layer.
Each of the segments constituting both layers of the present invention is superimposed in a shifting state such that each segment of one layer can cover joining lines between each segment of the opposite layer, respectively, and the front layer and the rear layer are connected in a state wherein they are capable of moving only slightly by inserting retaining members into each connecting aperture at a position in which it corresponds with an aperture in the other layer.
Further, in the protector of the present invention other retaining members are inserted of cross points of joining lines of the front layer and of joining lines of the rear layer existing when both layers are superimposed.
As described hereinbefore, since the protector of the present invention is formed in a two layer construction, the joining lines between adjacent segments of one layer are covered by segments of the other layer, and the cross points of the joining lines of the front layer and the joining lines of the rear layer are covered by retaining members having a function sufficient to prevent penetration by a pointed blade, and thus the protector of the present invention has a superior blade-proof function, capable of withstanding penetration by a pointed blade, over the entire surface of the protector
