ABSTRACT:
Deflector - Arm Protector provides protection to athletes participating in sports such as but not limited to baseball or softball. This arm protector wraps around the entire arm from the hand to the shoulder and is secured by velcro straps. This concept can be adapted to protect any vulnerable portion of the human body. It is comprised of padded material covered by a flexible plastic insert with varying geometric profiles fitted within a sleeve of elastic cloth type material of varying shapes depended on the required protective coverage for the arm. The impact force on the athlete's arm is greatly reduced due to the design profile (insert/pad assembly) load distribution, thus making it less painful when hit by the pitched baseball or softball.
