Abstract

A frustum embedded fabricated composite protective structure is provided, including a restraint frame, a back plate, an infill block and a buffer block. The restraint frame is provided with a plurality of mounting holes matching with the shape of the infill block, the restraint frame is arranged on the back plate, the infill block is in a frustum shape. The buffer block and the infill block are installed in the mounting hole of the restraint frame, the buffer block is arranged on the smaller end of the infill block, and the infill block is wedged into the mounting hole of the restraint frame through a wedge surface mating, . Because this protective structure is assembled by multiple restraint frames and infill blocks, under the prestress restraint of partition blocks, the damage range after penetration or explosion will be significantly reduced, and it can withstand multiple blows.

First claim

What is claimed is:

1 . A frustum embedded fabricated composite protective structure, comprising a restraint frame, a back plate, an infill block and a buffer block, wherein the restraint frame is arranged on the back plate, the infill block is in a frustum shape, the buffer block is arranged on the smaller end of the infill block, and the restraint frame is provided with a plurality of through holes matching a size of the infill block to form mounting holes, the buffer block and the infill blocks are installed in the mounting holes of the restraint frame, and the infill block is wedged into the mounting hole of the restraint frame through a wedge surface mating, while the buffer block is constrained at a bottom of the mounting hole, and the infill block, the buffer block and the back plate are fastened by fasteners.

2 . The frustum embedded fabricated composite protective structure according to claim 1 , wherein the restraint frame is formed by connecting a plurality of hoops matching a shape of the infill block, and an inner cavity of each of the plurality of hoops forms the mounting hole.

3 . The frustum embedded fabricated composite protective structure according to claim 2 , wherein the shape of infill block is a frustum of hexagonal pyramid, a frustum of regular pyramid, a frustum of cone or a frustum of regular twelve pyramid.

4 . The frustum embedded fabricated composite protective structure according to claim 2 , wherein a cover plate is arranged on an opening side of the restraint frame, the restraint frame is clamped between the back plate and the cover plate; the fasteners comprise bolts and nuts, and at least one bolt hole penetrates through the cover plate, the infill block, the buffer block and the back plate; the cover plate and the back plate fixedly connect the infill block and the buffer block with each other through the bolts and the nuts.

5 . The frustum embedded fabricated composite protective structure according to claim 2 , wherein the gaps between the hoops are filled with a gap filler.

6 . The frustum embedded fabricated composite protective structure according to claim 5 , wherein an opening side of the restraint frame is provided with a cover plate, the restraint frame is clamped between the back plate and the cover plate; the fasteners comprise bolts and nuts, and at least one bolt hole penetrates through the cover plate, the gap filler, and the back plate; the cover plate, the gap filler and the back plate are fixedly connected with each other through the bolts and the nuts.

7 . The frustum embedded fabricated composite protective structure according to claim 1 , wherein the fasteners comprise bolts and nuts, at least one of the bolts is embedded in the infill block, and a corresponding bolt hole is provided to penetrate the buffer block and the back plate, the bolt passes through the bolt hole reserved in the back plate, and the infill block, the buffer block and the back plate are fixedly connected with each other.

8 . The frustum embedded fabricated composite protective structure according to claim 2 , wherein an opening side of the restraint frame is provided with a cover plate, the restraint frame 2 is clamped between the back plate and the cover plate; the fasteners comprise bolts and nuts, and at least one bolt hole is provided to penetrate edge areas of the cover plate 4 and the back plate 5 ; the cover plate 4 and the back plate 5 are fixedly connected with each other through the bolts and the nuts, and the cover plate 4 and the infill block 1 are bonded by a binder.

9 . The frustum embedded fabricated composite protective structure according to claim 1 , wherein the infill block is a single-layer or multi-layer structure, the infill block is composed of one or more materials from ceramics, concrete and glass, and an outer surface of the infill block is wrapped with fiber reinforced polymer or metal plate to form a surface reinforcement layer.

10 . The frustum embedded fabricated composite protective structure according to claim 2 , wherein inclined angles of the infill block and the hoop matching with the infill block ranges from 0.5° to 10°.

11 . The frustum embedded fabricated composite protective structure according to claim 1 , wherein a thickness of the infill block decreases from a centre of the restrained frame to a periphery in a parabola or linear form, and a thickness of the buffer block increases correspondingly with the decrease of the thickness of the infill block, so that a total thickness of the infill block and the buffer block in each mounting hole matches a depth of the mounting hole.
