CHEMICAL AGENT DELIVERY RECEPTACLE WITH REUSABLE DIGITAL CONTROL CARTRIDGE
20200333119 · 2020-10-22 ·

A digitally controlled hand-tossable explosive delivery receptacle comprises a ruggedized reusable compartment enclosing a digital circuit and a disposable cartridge holding one or more explosive chemical agents and a primer. The disposable cartridge is configured to be mounted to the ruggedized reusable cartridge, and a high-strength bulkhead incorporated into the reusable or disposable compartment that separates the digital circuit from the chemical agents. The reusable compartment is sufficiently ruggedized to withstand the ignition of the primer and the detonation of the chemical agents to be reused with one or more additional disposable cartridges. In one implementation, the delivery receptacle uses a commercial airbag initiator as the primer, which is arranged in relation to the one or more chemical agents so that when the initiator is activated, it generates a pressure wave that expels the one or more chemical agents from the grenade.

DELAYED TRIGGER, PELLET EJECTOR, AND SIMULATED WEAPON
20200232750 · 2020-07-23 ·

An example simulated weapon includes a delayed trigger and a pellet ejector. The delayed trigger includes a chamber and a piston slidable between armed and triggering positions. A spring biases the piston towards the triggering position. A locking member releasably locks the piston in the armed position. Release of the piston by the locking member causes the spring to move the piston from the armed position to the triggering position. The pellet ejector is coupled to the delay trigger to be triggered by the delay trigger in the triggering position. The pellet ejector includes a pressure chamber to receive a pressurized fluid and a pellet chamber to receive pellets. A valve is disposed between the pressure chamber and the pellet chamber communicates pressure from the pressure chamber to the pellet chamber. A barrel that extends through the pressure chamber is connected to the pellet chamber to eject the pellets.

ROLLING PREVENTER FOR GRENADES

A rolling preventer for reducing rolling movements of a grenade, wherein the rolling preventer has at least one hindering element, which counteracts rolling movements of the grenade and can consequently reduce the rolling movement. The rolling preventer according to the invention also has a clearance, by which the rolling preventer can be attached to a grenade. For this purpose, the grenade is inserted through the clearance and the rolling preventer is thereby fastened to the grenade. Also proposed is a grenade, with a housing, an actuating element and a safety device, wherein the grenade is equipped with a rolling preventer according to the invention.

CARTRIDGE FOR MILITARY TRAINING DEVICE, ACTIVATION DEVICE FOR CARTRIDGE, CARTRIDGE KIT, AND RELATED METHODS
20190301843 · 2019-10-03 ·

Provided is a non-pyro cartridge for military training devices. The cartridge has a refillable compressed gas compartment fitted with a refill valve, which allows for quick reuse of the cartridge. The cartridge further has a blast compartment that receive a rush of compressed air from the gas compartment when the cartridge is triggered/detonated. Also provided is an activation device for the cartridge. The cartridge and activation device can generate physical and digital effects on the battlefield that safely and realistically simulate anti-tank weapon signatures, mortar weapon signatures, landmines signatures, improvised explosive device weapon signatures, artillery point of impact signatures, hand grenade signatures, weapon impact signatures on vehicles, weapon impact signatures on buildings, multiple types of battlefield effects, weapon signatures, impact signatures with a single device type.

STUN GRENADE AND METHOD FOR PRODUCTION THEREOF

A stun grenade for repelling or defending against threats, and to a method for assembling the stun grenade. For this purpose, the main bodies of the stun grenades are produced separately from the flash charge containers. The flash charge containers are designed as at least one container for this purpose, which can be filled with at least one effect charge via an opening. The flash charge containers are then closed water-tight. The main bodies of the stun grenades can likewise be produced separately and comprise at least one cut-out for inserting the flash charge containers into the stun grenade. Thus, in case of use, the stun grenades can be assembled by mounting at least one flash charge container in the main body.

Projectile magazine and simulated weapon having same

A magazine for projectiles in a simulated weapon includes a housing defining an internal chamber. A gas inlet is situated at an inlet portion of the internal chamber. An outlet situated at an outlet portion of the internal chamber. The internal chamber of the housing is shaped to accommodate a series of spherical projectiles. A restraining element is positioned at the outlet portion of the internal chamber. The restraining element restrains a lead projectile of the series of projectiles against pressure from pressurized gas applied to the gas inlet. The restraining element releases the lead projectile as pressure within the internal chamber rises. The magazine can be integrated in a simulated grenade, simulated shotgun shell, and similar devices.

Diversionary Device
20180283836 · 2018-10-04 · ·

In a multi-burst diversionary device (10) containing a number of pyrotechnic cartridges (22) arranged in a series and a firing arrangement (14), a first of the cartridges is ignited by the firing arrangement, the remaining cartridges are each ignited sequentially by the flash of pressure and heat (hot gasses) produced when a previous cartridge in the series deflagrates. The device has a housing (12) defining a number of compartments (20) in which the cartridges are received. The housing defines flow paths interconnecting the compartments in series and the first compartment with the firing arrangement. Each compartment is also fluidly connected with atmosphere.
