Definitions

  • the invention is concerned with the possibility of power and, associated therewith, the change in volume of the effect charge of an irritation body, which can be realized by virtue of the fact that the irritation body is embodied in a modular manner.
  • one module preferably comprises all components necessary for unlocking and firing the effect charge
  • the other module comprises a central chamber for receiving the effect charge, in particular a blast or sound-generating active charge.
  • This second module may then have different chambers in geometry and / or volume, whereby, depending on the choice of chamber size, i. the corresponding module, a performance adjustments and / or optimization of an irritation body is possible.
  • the performance of the irritation body is now variable, the power efficiency itself directly adjustable.
  • Irritation body of this kind serve primarily for non-lethal defense or defense and u. a. for assistance in police or military operations. They resemble a hand grenade, which is usually ignited manually and then thrown away, but should not form fragments themselves.
  • DE 199 44 486 C2 describes an irritation body for manual ignition and spin-drying with a plurality of compartments running substantially parallel to the central axis of the container, which receive effect charges, which in turn are ignited with a time delay.
  • the irritation body itself has an ignition device with a common ignition channel, from which distributed over the length of which lead tap holes to the respective compartment.
  • an irritation body with a rocker arm which is formed from a body in which the delay set and the active charge (s) are integrated.
  • the delay set or the delay line is located in a separate tube, with an ignition head with lever in the Irritationsgroundêtraj is introduced.
  • the cross sections of the exhaust openings at the upper end of the main body of the irritation body are kept smaller than the cross sections of the exhaust opening at the lower end, whereby the exhaust openings of the two sides are formed recoil neutral.
  • the Wirkladung is in turn housed in chambers, so-called flash chambers. As a rule, these are 6 chambers, the about 8-10 g of a Blitz fact. Can record effect set.
  • DE 10 2008 058 776 A1 proposes to integrate an additional body with a further effect charge in the free area at the bottom of the irritation body.
  • the object of the invention is to provide an irritation body that more comfortably accommodates the desire for increased performance.
  • the invention is based on the idea of designing an irritation body whose power adaptation or increase is achieved by offering or integrating different chambers and, associated therewith, different volumes for receiving the effect charge (s).
  • the irritation body is preferably modular.
  • it consists of at least two modules which can be connected to one another and together form the variable body of irritation. Both modules can be linked per se with every other module of the irritation body.
  • One module contains the delay Set with delay line and the (blow-out) opening (s) and takes in a known manner the igniter head with primer and igniter housing.
  • the other module contains a common chamber for receiving the effect or effect charge. At the lower bottom of the chamber are the lower exhaust opening (s).
  • This second module can be designed so that each has different sized chambers.
  • the common or central chamber can be filled with the effect set via at least one, but preferably a plurality of upper blow-off openings.
  • the single chamber can also be divided into at least two sub-chambers by one or more vertical walls, if this is desired, the ignition of the effect set can then also be done from above and is thus guaranteed in the sub-chambers.
  • the interfaces between the chamber and the exhaust opening (top and bottom) are closed by a respective closure element.
  • the firm connection between the two body parts can be created by crimping, crimping, welding, etc. or by means of easily detachable connections such as screwing, notches, etc.
  • Fig. 2 shows another variant of a two-part irritation body.
  • Fig. 1 and Fig. 2 show an irritation body 100, 100 ', which has a two-part modular base body 101, 102. Both modules 101, 102 can be connected to one another, for example, by a latching connection 103. Other solvable as well as non-releasable solid compounds are also usable. Between both modules 101, 102, an axially inserted O-ring 104 is provided as a sealing ring.
  • the upper (first) module 101 serves to receive a firing head 1.
  • This firing head 1 comprises, in addition to a rocker arm 3, a primer cap 4 and an igniter housing 5 for accommodating an ignition charge 6 with a deceleration set.
  • the ignition head 1 is screwed, for example, in the module housing of the module 101, to which it has a Zündkopfing 7.
  • At least one, preferably several, for example six, blow-out openings 8, 9 are integrated around this receptacle 7.
  • This opening (s) 8, 9 opens into a central chamber 10 of the exchangeable second module 102, which serves to receive an effect charge or an effect set 11.
  • the chamber 10 is centered and preferably symmetrically bound around the central axis M of the irritation body 100 in the second module 102.
  • the ignition charge 6 and the chamber 10 are aligned and tuned to each other so that they preferably act from above and centrally on the effect charge 11 of the chamber 10 and can ignite this.
  • at least one opening 12 (FIG. 2) is provided which, like the upper openings 8 (9), serves to blow out the ignited effect set 11.
  • the irritation body 100 ' may have in the lower region of the chamber 10 but also a plurality, preferably four to six, openings 18, 19, 20.
  • the lower (second) module 102 is distinguished by the fact that, given the same basic design, it can have different internal chamber sizes and geometries, for example a chamber with a smaller volume or a smaller quantity. Due to the modular nature of the two modules 101, 102, the lower module 102 can be easily connected to the upper module 101 and / or replaced. Depending on which power is required for the irritation body, the module 102 is connected to the corresponding chamber size with the upper part 101, which meets this requirement on most corresponds. Thus, an irritating body 100, 100 'can be created, which can now receive an effect charge 11 in the range between 2 to 15 g, for example 12 g of a flash set, and which ensures the functional safety in this spectrum. If the known external dimensions of the irritation body 100, 100 'are also changed, the chamber 10 can also be adapted to these new dimensions and thus the performance further increased. -
  • closure elements 15, 16 may be lightweight cardboard discs.
  • the cross sections of the upper opening (s) 8, (9) and lower openings 12, 18, 19 should be matched.
  • the one or more lower bores or openings 12, 18, 19 are distributed eccentrically and preferably non-uniformly around the central axis M in the lower region of the chamber 10, thereby creating an asymmetry
  • the one or more lower bores or openings 12, 18, 19 are distributed eccentrically and preferably non-uniformly around the central axis M in the lower region of the chamber 10, thereby creating an asymmetry

Abstract

L'invention concerne un corps irritant (100,100') formé d'au moins deux modules (101, 102). Le module supérieur (5) sert à recevoir une tête de mise à feu (1) dotée d'un levier basculant (3) et comporte des bouches de sortie supérieures (8, 9). Le module inférieur (102) est destiné à recevoir une charge à effet (11), la charge à effet (11) étant placée dans une cavité centrale (10) du module (102). La cavité (10) est en liaison fonctionnelle à la fois avec les bouches de sortie supérieures (8, 9) et avec les bouches de sortie inférieures (12, 18, 19, 20) dans le module inférieur (102). La cavité (10) du module inférieur (102) peut être de dimension plus ou moins importante en fonction du module (102), de sorte qu'une modulation du volume se traduit par une modulation de la puissance, l'augmentation de la puissance pouvant être prédéfinie.
