An article of armor includes a friction material operative to prevent penetration of a ballistic projectile. The armor is also operative to prevent penetration of a plurality of ballistic projectiles at a single point of impact. The armor may include a backing, or a facing, or may comprise an intermediate layer between a backing and facing in any combination. The armor of the invention applied directly to or attached to an article to be armored so as to cover all or any portion of the article. The backing and facing may include a friction material or a non-friction material. The friction material is a composite of a resin binder agent, a fibrous support structure, a friction modifier system, and a wear system.

Lightweight armor and methods of making

Post consumer recyclable plastics are combined with a ethylene-octene copolymer and a polyamide to prepare a resin composition that can be used in conventional molding processes to fabricate new and useful plastic articles of manufacture.

Resin composition

A game of chance simulating the betting in horse racing. A game board contains the numbers of hypothetical horses, and indications of odds paid on each horse in each position of that horse in the race, as Win, Place and Show. A wheel or roulette type indicator, includes a dial with the numbers of the horses arranged in a circle, and a rotatable arrow or spinner which upon being rotated or spun, and after stopping, indicates the horses in the particular race concerned. The spinner has three arms, each indicating a respective one of the horses as to its position, i.e., whether Win, Place or Show. A combinations chart is included, which shows the combinations of the positions of the first three horses in each race, that is, for each position of stopping of the indicator, a predetermined combination of horses constitute the first three in that race.
