Description

    BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
  • 1. Field of the Invention
  • The present invention relates to an improved anti-riot device. More particularly, the anti-riot device is designed with a net-type projectile structure and used for arresting criminals.
  • 2. Description of the Related Art
  • While the police are in the process of arresting a criminal, if the police are confronted by the criminal, injury may result to the police on duty. Besides, there are many concerns for the police if they must use a gun. More particularly, they need to be aware of shooting a person in public areas as innocent people in may be placed in danger. Therefore, the difficulty in arresting criminals alive is increased. In order to arrest a criminal alive but without hurting innocent people, an ant-riot device can be used by the police, and an umbrella-shaped net is projected to arrest the criminal within a certain distance. Therefore, the police and the criminal will not get injured. Further, it is much more appropriate to use the anti-riot device in public areas.
  • The anti-riot device (10), referring to FIG. 1, mainly comprises a projectile (101), a net-containing tube (102) in the center, and multiple gas holes (102 a) in the bottom. The projectile (101) has multiple shot holes (101 a). The shot holes (101 a) are connected with the air outlet space (103). The lower side of the air outlet space (103) has a high pressure gas device (104). The main feature of the structure is that the multiple shot holes (101 a) are inclined outwardly from a central axis of the projectile (101). The net-containing tube (102) has a propellant board (105 a) and a high strength net body (105) positioned therein. The outer area of the high strength net body (105) has multiple bullets (106) disposed in the shot holes (101 a). While arresting a criminal, the user can initiate the high pressure gas device (104), and the strong pressure is released to the gas holes (102 a) and the shot holes (101 a) in the bottom of the net-containing tube (102) through air outlet space (103). The strong pressure can propel the bullets (106), the propellant board (105 a) and the high strength net body (105).
  • By the arrangement described above, the high strength net body (105) is opened into an umbrella shape while being propelled for arresting the criminal, because the shot holes (101 a) are inclined outwardly from the central axis of the projectile (101). However, since the shot holes (101 a) are outwardly inclined from the central axis of the projectile (101), the projectile (101) requires a large volume, which is not convenient to be carried, as shown in FIG. 2. Further, the propellant board (105 a) is positioned in the bottom of the net-containing tube (102) for assisting the high strength net body (105) to be propelled by the pressurized gas. However, the propellant board (105 a) is a disk shape, and it can not uniformly distribute the concentrated pressure of the propelling gas and causes an uneven propulsion of the high strength net body.
  • SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION
  • The present invention relates to an improved anti-riot device. More particularly, the anti-riot device in the present invention comprises a net-containing tube, and multiple shot holes in the upper area connecting with air outlet space. The lower side of the air outlet space communicates with a high pressure gas device. Further, the net-containing tube has a high strength net body and a propellant board with a gas receiving concave shaped surface. The outer area of the net body has multiple bullets disposed in shot holes. The bottom of the net contained tube has multiple gas holes and air outlet board.
  • BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS
  • FIG. 1 is a cross-sectional view showing an anti-riot device according to the prior art.
  • FIG. 2 is a 3-Dimensional view showing an anti-riot device according to the prior art.
  • FIG. 3 is one example of the present invention showing an improved anti-riot device by an A-A cross-sectional view.
  • FIG. 4 is one example of the present invention showing an improved anti-riot device by a top view;
  • FIG. 5 is one example of the present invention showing an improved anti-riot device by a partial 3-Dimensional view.
  • DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION
  • FIG. 3 and FIG. 5 of the present invention show an improved anti-riot device (20) by an cross-sectional view A-A and a partial 3-Dimensional view. As shown in the figures, the center in the front of the anti-riot device (20) has a net-containing tube (201), and the bottom of the anti-riot device (20) has an air outlet board (201 a) with multiple gas holes (201 b). Referring to FIG. 4 and 5, the upper area has multiple shot holes (30) that are equidistantly spaced from the central axis of the device and have a circumferential angular inclination where the top end of the shot holes (30) are angularly offset with respect to a bottom end of the shot holes (30). The shot holes (30) are connected with the air outlet space (40). The lower side of the air outlet space (40) has a high pressure gas device (50). The net-containing tube (201) receives a high strength net body (202) and a propellant board (203) with a gas receiving concave shaped surface (203 a) inside the tube. Further, the bullets (202 a) are coupled to the outer periphery of the net body (202) and are positioned in the shot holes (30).
  • The high pressure gas device (50) is initiated by an electrical launcher (50 a) and releases the pressurized gas. Then, the pressurized gas enters the net-containing tube (201) through the air outlet space (40) and gas holes (201 b) for propelling the propellant board (203). The gas receiving concave shaped surface (203 a) of the propellant board (203) concentrates the pressure to propel the bullets of the net body (202) out. The net body (202), therefore, can quickly be opened into an umbrella shape.
  • The net body (202) is projected into an umbrella shape. Since the bullets (202 a) coupled to the outer area of the net body (202) are propelled by a strong pressure, the bullets (202 a) being propelled at a projected angle corresponding to the inclination angle of the shot holes (30) make the net body (202) open quickly for arresting a criminal.
  • As described above, the structure of the present invention achieves the objectives of a reduced volume that is a convenient to carry. Further, the structure is simple.
  • The above embodiments are only used to illustrate the present invention, and not intended to limit the scope thereof. Many modifications of the above embodiments can be made without departing from the spirit of the present invention.
