backplates
Dorsal protective plates
Backplates are protective plates covering the back, typically as part of armor.
In historical contexts, the backplate paired with a breastplate to form a cuirass: The knight's backplate was dented from the blow.
Modern uses include protective gear in sports and the rear mounting plates for electronics or diving equipment.
