RU140059U1 - TRAUMATIC ACTION CARTRIDGE - Google Patents

Abstract

The utility model relates to ammunition, namely, to cartridges for firearms, mainly smooth-bore weapons. The objective of this utility model is to create a cartridge of traumatic action, not intended to cause death to a person and providing the possibility of the mechanism for reloading self-loading weapons, driven by the pressure of gases removed from the barrel of the weapon. This problem is solved in that the traumatic action cartridge for a smoothbore, mainly combat self-loading weapon, contains a sleeve with an initiating means, for example, an igniter capsule, and a powder charge placed in the sleeve, a wad seal and a projectile formed by at least one elastic element, designed to hit the target, and powder from a non-combustible substance. The utility model can be used in traumatic cartridges designed both for smooth-bore combat self-loading weapons, having a reloading mechanism driven by the pressure of the gases removed from the barrel of the weapon, and for non-self-loading smooth-bore weapons.

Description

The utility model relates to ammunition, namely, to cartridges for firearms, mainly smooth-bore weapons.

Known cartridges of traumatic action for smooth-bore weapons, not intended to cause death to a person, containing a sleeve with an initiating means, for example, an igniter capsule, and a powder charge placed in the sleeve, a wad seal and a projectile formed by at least one elastic element intended for hitting a target (RU 78924 U1, F42B 5/02, 2008).

Tane cartridges, with the correct selection of the masses of the powder charge and the elastic element designed to hit the target, provide sufficient pain and stopping effect on a person with an acceptable traumatic effect without causing him death.

However, such well-known cartridges do not meet the requirements for cartridges intended for use in armed with smoothbore combat self-loading weapons having a reloading mechanism driven by the pressure of gases discharged from the barrel of the weapon, since the pressure in the channel of the barrel of the weapon is limited by the requirement of non-death to a person, does not ensure the operation of the mechanism of reloading weapons, but increasing the pressure to a level that ensures the operation of the mechanism of reloading weapons, due to increasing the mass of the powder charge leads to an increase in the striking characteristics of the weapon in excess of the specified values as a result of an increase in the energy of the element intended to hit the target.

The objective of this utility model is to create a cartridge of traumatic action, not intended to cause death to a person and providing the possibility of the mechanism of reloading self-loading weapons, driven by the pressure of gases removed from the barrel of the weapon.

This problem is solved in that the traumatic action cartridge for a smoothbore, mainly combat self-loading weapon, contains a sleeve with an initiating means, for example, an igniter capsule, and a powder charge placed in the sleeve, a wad seal and a projectile formed by at least one elastic element, designed to hit the target, and powder from a non-combustible substance.

This embodiment of the cartridge allows you to increase the mass of the powder charge to a value sufficient to obtain the pressure in the channel of the barrel of the weapon, necessary for the mechanism of reloading the weapon, and at the same time does not increase the damaging effect of the element designed to hit the target, since the increase in the mass of the powder charge is compensated by the mass of powder from non-combustible substances that are inhibited by air after exiting the barrel of the weapon at a short distance from it, are scattered and do not affect the target.

Next, the utility model is illustrated by drawings, which depict:

in Fig 1 - cartridge traumatic action in longitudinal section, the first option;

in Fig 1 - cartridge traumatic action in longitudinal section, the second option.

As shown in the drawings, the cartridge comprises a sleeve 1 with initiating means 2, for example, an igniter capsule. In the sleeve 1 there is a powder charge 3, wad-sealer 4 and a projectile formed by an elastic element 5 designed to hit the target, and powder 6 from a non-combustible substance.

In the embodiment shown in FIG. 1, the elastic element 5 is made in the form of a ball, the sleeve is closed by a plug 7.

In the embodiment shown in FIG. 2, the elastic element 5 is made in the form of a body of revolution with a recess 8 facing the wad-seal 4.

A powder charge 3 is located between the igniter caps 2 and the wad-obturator 4. A powder 6 of non-combustible material is placed between the wad-obturator 4 and the elastic element 5 (Fig. 1), as well as in the recess 8 of the elastic element 5 (Fig. 2).

The cartridge may contain a powder charge made of two or more parts (not shown in the drawings), and two or more elastic elements designed to hit the target (also not shown in the drawings).

The described cartridge works as follows.

When triggered, the means of initiation 2 is the ignition of part 3 of the powder charge. The resulting gases exert pressure on the wad-sealer 4, which pushes the powder 6 and the elastic element 5 from the barrel of the weapon (not shown in the drawing). In this case, the gas pressure in the barrel of the weapon is sufficient for the mechanism of reloading the weapon, and the total energy of the elastic element 5 and powder 6 of non-combustible material at the exit of the weapon barrel exceeds the value set for weapons with traumatic effects, not intended to cause death to humans, but the energy one elastic element 5 meets the requirements established for weapons of traumatic action, not intended to cause death to humans.

Powder 6 from non-combustible material is inhibited by air after exiting the barrel of the weapon at a small distance from it, disperses and does not affect the target.

The utility model can be used in traumatic cartridges designed both for smooth-bore combat self-loading weapons, having a reloading mechanism driven by the pressure of the gases removed from the barrel of the weapon, and for non-self-loading smooth-bore weapons.

Claims (1)

A traumatic cartridge for a smooth-bore, mainly combat, self-loading weapon, comprising a sleeve with an initiating means, for example, an igniter capsule, and a powder charge placed in the sleeve, a wad seal and a projectile, formed by at least one elastic element designed to hit the target, and powder from a non-combustible substance.
