Claims (10)

1 . A body armor comprising an internal encasement of buckwheat hull shock absorbers and an external dual coil shock suspension, for the protection of the human or animal head from the effects of blunt force impact and other moving forces of energy;

wherein said dual coil shock suspension comprises an external suspension having a plurality of coil springs with a top shell of rigid material and a bottom shell of rigid material and an internal suspension having a plurality of coil springs with a top shell of rigid material and a bottom shell of rigid material;

wherein said top shell of rigid material and said bottom shell of rigid material for both said external suspension and said internal suspension each comprise two plies, having a joining device with swivel capabilities at one end and the opposite end bearing a latching device.

2 . The body armor of claim 1 wherein a single shell composes both said bottom shell of said external suspension and said top shell of said internal suspension.

3 . The body armor of claim 1 wherein said top shell of rigid material for both said suspensions have a predetermined placement and number of apertures.

4 . The body armor of claim 3 wherein said apertures of said bottom shell are encircled, off center, with a gabion and cincture on the external surface of said top shell of each said suspension.

5 . The body armor of claim 4 wherein said gabion and said cincture both have female threads.

6 . The body armor claim 4 wherein a gabion cap having an internal wormhole with aperture at a tip, male threads, and topside cross-grooves screws into said gabion and said cincture.

7 . The body armor of claim 3 wherein said apertures of said bottom shell have an encircling, off center gabion on an internal surface.

8 . The body armor of claim 1 wherein said coil springs have two painted lines circumferentially disposed, and a painted tip proximal to said painted lines.
