Abstract:
1. An assembly structured for mounting armor on a user's body, said assembly comprising: a base including an inner portion and an outer portion, an armor structure connected to said base, said armor structure being a ballistic armor, said base being independent of said armor structure and formed from a different material construction than said armor structure, said base further structured to protect said armor structure from impacts prior to an encounter with a projectile, said outer portion being exteriorly exposed and said inner portion being substantially oppositely disposed on said base, when operatively mounted on the user, said inner portion structured to retain the armor on said base, said outer portion dimensioned and configured to overlie the armor in substantially covering relation thereto, and an attachment assembly connected to said base and structured to facilitate the operative mounting of said base and the armor on the user, in a protective orientation, said attachment assembly comprising a plurality of connectors disposed on said base and collectively structured to facilitate the operative mounting of said base and the armor in said protective orientation on the user, said plurality of connectors structured for removable attachment of said base from the operative mounting on the user, and said attachment assembly further comprising a release assembly mounted on said base in interconnected relation to said plurality of connectors, said release assembly disposed and structured for substantially concurrent release of said plurality of connectors, and including a common release mechanism mounted on said base and interconnected to said plurality of connectors, said common release mechanism operative to substantially concurrently dispose said plurality of connectors in said release orientation and including a cable assembly operatively interconnecting said common release mechanism to said plurality of connectors.
