Methods for increasing the number of countermeasure expendables for dispensing systems

Various systems and methods for leveraging legacy countermeasure dispensing systems (CMDSs). The legacy CMDSs are leveraged through the expansion of breechplates and magazines in a CMDS by expanding the amount of expendables carried by a CMDS while still maintaining the legacy sequencer and dispenser in a legacy military platform, such as an aircraft. In addition, various circuitry systems are included in a circuit card of the breechplate for duplicating and/or expanding the firing lines provided in a legacy CMDS.

APPARATUS FOR LAUNCHING INCENDIARY SPHERES
20170003102 · 2017-01-05 ·

An apparatus for launching incendiary spheres for prescribed burning is provided. This apparatus receives charged, or injected, spherical incendiaries, then launches them in a controlled direction at a controlled distance. The charged incendiaries are first emitted from a conventional Plastic Sphere Dispenser (PSD) into the intake of the apparatus whereupon they are moved along a lower pathway by a delivering wheel to a launching point relative to a spinning wheel or a plurality of spinning wheels. These spinning wheels convey velocity to each incendiary sphere, which is thereby launched in a trajectory that is determined by the azimuth of orientation, and the rotational velocity, of the spinning wheels.

Flying disc(s) with handle
12569778 · 2026-03-10 ·

This invention is a type of flying disc. It has very special features that makes it unique and an innovation. To the flying disc part one can add a handle, thus, making it a flying disc with a handle protruding downwards from the center of the flying disc part. To this flying disc with a handle, one can add many features like: an overhang, a dome, lights, sound devices, solar panels, computer, buttons, light sensors, speakers, TV screen, meteorological instruments, remote control, drone capabilities, flaps, wings, propellers, etc. Also, this flying disc with a handle rotates like a top on various surfaces. Thus, it is a flying disc and a top in one. To the flying disc with a handle, one can add or take off parts, like extensions, handle, and flying disc parts to create bigger or more interesting flying discs, as shown in the drawings.
