Definitions

  • the invention relates to a practice ammunition with a Marker.
  • the Practice ammunition a head with a chamber in which a Marking agent, preferably a reddish color powder, is included.
  • the head is made of a material that bursts when it hits a target, causing that Color powder is released from the chamber.
  • the dye scatters within a certain radius around the point of impact and shows the meeting point optically.
  • the color powder is however only with sufficient brightness, but in the Twilight or night hardly or only with strong ones Night vision devices visible.
  • a practice floor is known in which the marker in a burstable hood on the head of the Practice floor is added.
  • the marker means chemical absorbed in separate breakable compartments Components that when opening the compartments at Surcharge of the practice floor can be mixed together and react chemically, being through this chemical reaction the optical marking is given.
  • one Practice floor it is possible to serve even at night to be visible.
  • a practice floor is known that a gun is fired and also a Has marking means that in several separate chemical components that can be broken into compartments having.
  • the floor is designed so that this Compartments immediately upon exiting the practice floor from the Gun barrel burst, on the one hand the practice floor disassembled and on the other a smoke mushroom directly on the Muzzle of the barrel weapon is generated, which is visible from afar. As a result, the shooting down of the practice floor becomes appropriate realistically reproduced from live ammunition.
  • the invention has for its object a practice ammunition of the type in question with a chemically reactive Markers to further improve and enable if necessary, also the trajectory of the practice ammunition observe.
  • This object is according to the invention by Features of claim 1 solved.
  • the chemical component receiving Compartments already known during the Initial acceleration and / or spin acceleration of the Practice floor broken open.
  • the individual compartments are however in a hood located at the head of the practice floor made of an optically transparent material, the bursts upon impact on a target and thereby that Marking agent released and the site of impact visible makes.
  • the marking e.g. the hypocrisy of chemiluminescence of the chemically reacting Components over the entire trajectory of the practice floor be perceived.
  • the chemical components are here selected so that the reaction takes longer Illuminations are triggered, so that the trajectory of the Practice ammunition optically tracked over the entire flight path can be marked and in addition the point of impact is marked.
  • Starting materials are preferred in the present invention used, which glow in the chemical reaction in the send out visible or infra-red area. At Illuminations in the infra-red area can be marked be observed with night vision devices.
  • From CH 381 565 is a practice floor with one at Impact-bursting, optically transparent hood on the head of the Closed known in which a marking agent, e.g. on Color powder is added.
  • the optically transparent hood however, only serves to recognize the color of the color powder and thus different types of floors, e.g. on Practice floor and a sharp floor from each other to be able to distinguish. Tracking the trajectory of the Bullet is not possible with such a construction.
  • a practice floor 1 is shown, which in a Cartridge sleeve 2 is added.
  • the head of the practice floor 1 has a hood 3 made of transparent material, such as e.g. Plastic, and there is a first compartment 4 and one second compartment 5 covers.
  • the two compartments are layered arranged one above the other and by a partition 6 from separated from each other.
  • the first compartment is with a first chemical component 7, e.g. an oxidizer, and that second compartment with a second chemical component 8, e.g. a reducing agent.
  • the partition is e.g. by the force of acceleration broken when fired, is caused by the chemical Reaction of the two chemical components Luminous phenomenon caused by chemiluminescence see-through hood is visible during the flight phase. At the Surcharge on the destination bursts the hood and the end products the reaction will be in the immediate vicinity around the impact point scattered, making it optically marked by the glow and is also visible from a distance.
  • Figure 2 illustrates a practice floor 1 according to the invention, in whose head with its transparent hood 3 a first Compartment 4 with a first chemical component 7 and a second compartment 5 with a second chemical component 8 in Are arranged side by side in the longitudinal direction.
  • the two Compartments are separated by a partition 6 in the longitudinal direction Storey separated, e.g. by the centrifugal force of the Swirls of a spin-stabilized practice floor broken and the chemical reaction that the Represents marking means.
  • the partitions can not be shown Predetermined breaking points.
