An offset ballistic protection device protecting a wall provided with a hatch (), wherein said device comprises at least a first grid () offset with respect to the wall and comprising a first series of bars () parallel to each other and substantially perpendicular to the pivot axis () of a hinge () of the hatch (). This ballistic protection device () comprises a second grid () offset with respect to the hatch () and comprising a second series of bars () substantially parallel to the first series of bars (), wherein the second grid () is positioned with respect to the first grid () so that the bars () thereof are spatially offset in the plane of the second grid () with respect to the bars () of the first grid (), wherein the bars () of the second grid () are therefore able to pass between the bars () of the first grid () during pivoting of the leaf ().

Protection grid for hatch

A protection device to close the gun slit (or opening) of a mount, such gun slit delimited by two lateral flanges and two end flanges and in which pivots or moves a mobile organ carrying a mobile wall positioned between the exterior and interior of the mount, device which comprises at least one flexible bellows integral on one side with an end flange of the gun slit and on the other with the mobile organ (), such device wherein the bellows and wall delimit an intermediate chamber that is linked to the internal space () of the mount, such space being pressurized by pressurization means.
