A police baton having a boomerang projectile
Technical Field
The present invention relates to a police baton having a boomerang projectile for offensive and defensive function of security force, more particularly a rope connected to a roll spring between a projectile is placed inside of the baton so that the projectile having a shape of cap detachably connected to the end body of baton through the rope can return to the original position after launching from the body of baton.
Background Art
A general type of baton for the policeman or security means is simply configured as straight rod made of wood or synthetic material. But these kinds of baton can not effectively carry out arresting or oppressing a criminal. In order to heighten the offensive and defensive performance of the baton, various kinds of improvement having special functions are made in the conventional type of JUTTE (a short rod having an auxiliary hook disposed on one side) or SAI (a rod having crotched hook on both sides). Although various types of batons such as cross handle, foldable or telescopic function can be found in prior arts, but these kinds of batons are also still lacking for oppressing the culprit who instinctively runs away or counter attacking to the security force. Furthermore in the case of run away culprit, an overly zealous police officer may use a gun because he has no other effective weapon for the urgent situation. But nowaday law enforcement standards require that a minimum of security force should be used to subdue criminals because so-called "Police brutality" is a very sensitive issue in modern society. Under the circumstance of run away from the security force, the present invention is very useful for attacking or capturing the escaper.
Disclosure of the Invention Therefore, it is an object of the present invention to provide a
police baton having a boomerang projectile which acts effectively and versatilely offensive and defensive means for the security forces.
Especially the present invention relates police baton having a boomerang projectile which acts effectively for capturing a run-away suspect from a long distance and fastening a culprit by means of a binding rope.
In order to achieve the above mentioned object, a police baton having a boomerang projectile comprises a cylindrical shaft of bored body 1 having an enlarged gripper 3 shaped on one end of said body 1 and a projectile member 9 having a heavy element 10 detachably connected on the other end of said baton body 1 by latching means to the body 1 , wherein a winding rope 3 wound inside said gripper 3 of body 1 as a connecting member for the projectile 9 to the shaft of baton is installed through the perforated hole 2 of body 1 to a roll spring 7 in the said gripper 3 for restoring of projectile 9.
Brief Description of the Drawings
The present invention will become more fully understood from the detailed description given herein below and the accompanying drawings which are given by way of illustration only, and thus are not limitative of the present invention, and wherein:
FIG.1 is a sectional view illustrating the configuration of the present invention.
FIG.2 is an exploded perspective view illustrating the main parts of the present invention.
FIG.3 is a sectional view illustrating a gripper part of the present invention.
FIG.4 illustrate diagrammatically how the baton may be used.
Best Mode for Carrying Out the Invention
An explanation of the detailed constitution of the present invention will now be discussed using the forementioned configuration of the device of the present invention.
The police baton A consists schematically a cylindrical shape of bored body 1 , an enlarged gripper 3 and projectile member 9 as seen
on Fig 1. In the bored body 1 , the perforated hole 2 is shaped for the transmitting a rope connected the spring 7 in the gripper 3 between the projectile member 9. A projectile member 9 having a shape of cap includes a heavy element 1 1 along the central portion of the axis. Inside of the gripper 3, cavity 5 is formed so that a roll spring 7 curled on the outer surface of center axis 6 can provide the rolling space of rope connected to the boomerang projectile 9. Approximately 5 m length of rope is curled circumferentially on the roll spring 7, while one end is fixed to the spring 7 and the other end is connected to the projectile member 9.
Although it is not mentioned on the drawing, a small motor can be installed for winding the rope 8 on the center axis 6.
For locking the projectile member on the end part of body 1 , a cylindrical hole 1 a is formed inside of upper end part of body 1 resulting a cylindrical shell shape and a pair of grooves in opposite on the inside of upper part on the cylinder shell is formed as a guiding and locking means for the protruding pin 9b of projectile member 9.
A detachable lid 4 of gripper 3 mentioned above is combined with the combining member 1 1 .
The rope 8 can be made of tensed cord having a high endurance or string of synthetic fiber.
Hrein below the mechanism of the present invention is described in detail. The main embodiment under the present invention is to provide a police baton having a boomerang projectile. In order to achieve the boomerang weapon, the projectile is detachable/attachable under the shooting motion of police baton. As seen on the Fig. 2, the heavy element 10 installed inside of the projectile member 9 plays a important role for providing impact or constraint after shooting from the cylinder hole 1 a of body 1. In order to launch the projectile member 9 from the body 1 of baton, the protruding pin 9b on the projectile member 9 is set to the position of vertical groove. In the case of ordinary use of the baton, the protruding pin 9b needs to be set at the position of horizontal groove for locking the projectile
member 9 to the body 1. Under the circular motion of baton, the projectile member 9 having a heavy element 10 unlocked position can departs from the body 1 of baton by means of centrifugal force caused by the circumferential acceleration of baton. After reaching to an objective, the projectile member 9 under the present invention returns to the original position due to the restoring force of rope 8 caused by a roll spring 7 in the gripper 3.
As seen on the Fig. 4, the projectile member 9 reachs the criminal or run away suspect resulting the damage or constraint to the objective. If the user excercise the boomerang projectile 9 as a catching means for the leg of runaway suspect, it would be a very useful tool for capturing the suspect.
Another embodiment of the present invention is provided a baton having a rope as a binding means. The rolled rope inside gripper 3 is useful tool for binding the hands or feet of criminals. One can use the binding rope simply by drawing out the projectile 9 from the baton.
Industrial Applicability As described above, the police baton having a boomerang projectile under the main embodiment of the present invention is provided for damaging and constraining to the culprit or run away suspect. Nowaday, the modern society requires minimum police force to human for protecting the human right or life. Under the circumstance of run away suspect or culprit, this tool is very useful for capturing the criminal.
While the present invention has been particularly shown and described with reference to a particular embodiment thereof, it will be understood by those skilled in the art that various changes in form and detail may be effected therein without departing from the spirit and scope of the invention as defined by the appended claims.
