Definitions

  • the invention relates to a shootable from a gun barrel bullet with a floor and a bottom of the projectile floor supporting penetrator, which receives a to be introduced into a particular closed space agent.
  • the projectile is constructed such that the penetrator penetrates the wall only partially, so that the active agent on through the wall / space projecting part of the penetrator can get into this.
  • the projectile When transferring agents by means of projectiles into often closed spaces, such as boats, cars, buildings, etc., for non-lethal combat persons located in these rooms, the projectile is usually chosen such that it through a wall of the room completely in this room penetrates, then the active agents, such as fog, irritants, etc., bring to effect. This results in an increased risk of lethal injuries to persons in the room through the projectile itself. If pyrotechnic compositions are used as active ingredients, their combustion often results in high temperatures which can lead to fires and severe injuries to the persons in the respective room ,
  • the invention has for its object to avoid lethal injury to the persons located in the rooms when introducing active ingredients by means of floors in closed rooms lethal.
  • the penetrator comprises a penetrator head, which contains a triggering unit, which causes an activation of an active agent at a predeterminable displacement of the penetrator head.
  • the projectile has an energy-absorbing device which is pressed apart when a projectile strikes a target and thus prevents a deeper penetration of the penetrator.
  • the unpublished DE 10 2011 100 790.7 deals with a rubber or impulse bullet with a mechanical damping system.
  • the mechanical damping system consists in a first variant of a plunger, an abutment and a arranged behind the abutment cylinder bore and a spring incorporated in this cylinder bore.
  • the new design extends the momentum transfer, eliminating pulse peaks (and thus possible injuries), optimizing the center of gravity and precision.
  • the force entry into the target can be scaled. There is a point-like introduction of energy at definable force entry. By increasing the deceleration distance in the target, the projectile speed can be increased.
  • the invention is essentially based on the idea of constructing the projectile in such a way that a penetrator only partially penetrates the wall of the corresponding space, so that the active agents, which are located in the penetrator in a cavity, etc., protrude beyond the part of the space projecting into the space Penetrators can get into these.
  • This is inventively achieved in that a part of the kinetic energy is absorbed after the impact of the penetrator on the wall of the corresponding space and converted into deformation work, similar to DE 10 2011 100 790.7 so that complete penetration into the closed space is prevented.
  • the object is achieved by the features of claim 1.
  • the maximum outer diameter of the basement floor is greater than the maximum outer diameter of the penetrator.
  • the penetrator preferably comprises a carrier and guide part, also called a penetrator tube, which contains at least one active agent in its cavity.
  • a carrier and guide part also called a penetrator tube
  • the carrier and guide part comprehensive, tubular trained Penetrator head is arranged on the carrier and guide part while the carrier and guide part comprehensive, tubular trained Penetrator head is arranged. This is preferably displaceable axially along the carrier and guide member and can be locked with this.
  • the penetrator head contains a trip unit. This then causes, for example, at a predetermined displacement of the penetrator head in the direction of the carrier and guide part, an activation of the active agent.
  • the carrier and guide member is non-positively and / or positively connected to the floor of the floor.
  • a carrier and guide part comprehensive, energy absorbing device is arranged between the penetrator head and the floor of the floor.
  • the active agent may be a gaseous medium (for example an irritating gas).
  • a gaseous active agent can be located in a pressure vessel located in the carrier and guide part.
  • the trip unit may include a mechanism that opens the pressure vessel to release the active agent and releases the corresponding gas.
  • the mechanism of the trip unit may be a tapping mechanism, which is connected via at least one pipe (for example, a bore in the penetrator head) to the outside of the penetrator head. Through this pipeline then passes the gas for non-lethal control of the corresponding persons in the interior of the preferably closed space.
  • the active agent may be in the active agent, which is to act behind a wall, in addition to CSenddem powder (effect: eye irritation) to effect agents with optical effect, eg. B. Flash Bang (effect: bang and / or flash) or with acoustic effect z. B. Howler, Pfeifer (effect: unpleasant noise) act, etc., so depending on the desired effect in the target.
  • CSenddem powder effect: eye irritation
  • B. Flash Bang effect: bang and / or flash
  • Pfeifer effect: unpleasant noise
  • the active agent can be an electronic assembly which, when activated, emits electromagnetic signals, such as location information, light signals or the like.
  • the energy absorbing device may be both an elastic and a plastically deformable device.
  • spring systems but also plastic or metal foams have proven themselves.
  • the locking (locking) of the penetrator head with the carrier and guide member may preferably be effected via a toothing between these parts.
  • the projectile according to the invention can be used in a garnet cartridge, wherein the penetrator then from a rear side on the floor of the bullet supporting ballistic hood is enclosed.
  • a marking agent can be arranged between the penetrator and the ballistic hood.
  • the ballistic hood can be made of plastic, which is destroyed upon impact of the projectile on the wall of a closed space.
  • the ballistic hood can also consist of a thin-walled metal, so that it fanning on impact on the wall - similar to a banana peel - and a complete penetration of the room wall is prevented.
  • Fig. 1 1 denotes a projectile (in flight) according to the invention which is located directly in front of a wall 2 of a closed space 3.
  • the projectile 1 essentially consists of a projectile bottom 4 and a penetrator 5 which is supported on the projectile bottom 4 in the weft direction.
  • the outside diameter of the projectile bottom 4 is greater than the maximum outside diameter of the penetrator 5.
  • the penetrator 5 comprises a non-positively and / or positively connected to the floor 4, tubular support and guide member 6 (also called penetrator tube), which contains at least one dashed lines active agent 8 in its cavity 7.
  • a carrier and guide member 6 comprehensive, tubular trained penetrator head 9 is arranged, which is axially displaceable along the support and guide member 6 and lockable with this locking means, not shown.
  • the penetrator head 9 contains in its cavity 10 as a puncture needle indicated release unit 11, which causes an activation of the active agent 8 at a predetermined displacement of the penetrator head 9 in the direction of the carrier and guide member 6.
  • the carrier and guide part 6 comprehensive, energy absorbing device 12, which may be a spring system in a simplest embodiment, arranged.
  • the penetrator head 9 When penetrating and penetrating the penetrator head 9 through the wall 2 of the closed space 3 (FIG. Fig. 2 ), the penetrator head 9 is decelerated relatively quickly.
  • the carrier and guide member 6 is pressed with the active agent 8 in the cavity 10 of the penetrator head 9. If the penetrator head 9 has penetrated the wall 2, the triggering unit 11 has reached the active agent 8 and causes its activation (for example, the outflow of an irritating gas from a container). This then escapes through corresponding holes 13 in the penetrator head 9 in the closed space.
  • the rear-side end wall 14 of the penetrator head 9 presses against the floor 4 via the spring system 12, so that the unit consisting of the floor 4 and support and guide part 6 is also braked strongly.
  • the floor 4 is much larger than the opening caused by the penetrator 9 opening 100 in the wall 2, the penetrator 5 is stuck in the wall 2.
  • FIG. 3 and 4 another embodiment of the invention is shown.
  • This is a garnet cartridge 15.
  • This consists essentially of a cup-shaped drive member 16 and a front side connected to the drive member 16 projectile according to the invention 1 '.
  • This hood 17 may be on the rear side of the floor 4 'supported.
  • the on the support and guide member 6 'slidably disposed penetrator head 9' is axially along the support and guide member 6 'slidably and with this via a toothing 19 can be locked (lockable).
  • the penetrator head 9 ' contains a piercing mechanism (trigger unit) 11' operatively connected to the active agent, which is connected via a bore 13 'to the outside of the penetrator head 9'.
  • a support and guide part 6 'comprehensive, energy absorbing device 12' is provided, which is in this embodiment, a plastic or metal foam.
  • a plastic or metal foam is provided between the penetrator 5 'after Fig. 3 or the penetrator 5 after Fig. 1 and the ballistic hood 17 or the floor 4 ( Fig. 1 ), which can be chosen such that the impact of the projectile 1 '(FIG. 1) on a target during the day or at night can be observed by the corresponding shooter directly or indirectly (for example via an IR viewer).
  • the marking means 20 can be selected such that it emits radiation in the infrared wavelength range.
  • the mode of action of the projectile 1 'according to the invention when hitting a wall 2 of a closed space 3 essentially corresponds to the mode of operation of the device in conjunction with FIGS Fig. 1 and 2 bullet 1 described:
  • the ballistic hood 17 bursts first and the marking agent 20 is released ( Fig. 4 ).
  • the penetrator head 9' and the carrier and guide part 6 ' are displaced relative to one another, and the penetrator head 9' engages in the rearmost position of the toothing 19.
  • the toothing 19 can also cause the penetration of the penetrator with the wall.
  • the energy absorbing device 12 'attenuates upon impact of the projectile 1' the wall 2 both the relative movement of the penetrator head 9 'and support and guide part 6' and the impact of the basement floor 4 'on the wall 2, so that a complete penetration of the wall 2 is prevented.
