A safety fuse, preferably usable for light grenades and shells having combined time and impact action, comprising a main piston containing elements of the ignition chain, said piston being displaced radially in a bore in the fuse casing by a driving spring, the time of this movement being prolonged by the vacuum created behind the ring-tightened piston, said vacuum being adjustable by leak holes having an arbitrary diameter. The fuse also contains a delay-composition-containing piston that is movable toward a fixed firing pin in a direction at an angle to the main piston. The delay piston has stopping means preventing its movement as long as the main piston has not reached its outward, fully armed position.

1,179,298. Projectile fuzes. FORGES DE ZEEBRUGGE S.A. 29 June, 1967 [28 Oct., 1966], No. 30133/67. Heading F3A. Fuze for a bomb, comprises a detonator (not shown) carried in a pivotable carrier 14, a first locking element 13 which engages the carrier in a safety position but is displaced a predetermined time after release of the bomb, and a second locking element 26 which engages the carrier in the safety position but is displaced after impact of the bomb by the glass resulting from the combustion of a delay charge 39, the carrier then being swung by a spring into a position where combustion of the remaining part of the delay charge causes firing of the detonator. The first locking element is held against axial rotation by engagement with a pin but is displaced axially by a spring when a recess in the end face 11 of a rotatable striker guide 8 is aligned with the locking element, following shearing of a pin 19 which extends into a circumferential recess in the end face. The guide 8 is rotated by a striker 4 driven through reduction gearing 3. A spring loaded pin locks the first locking element in the inactive position. The striker is formed with an inertia mass 5 and is thrown against a primer 40 upon impact of the bomb. The second locking element is displaced by combustion gases fed into a chamber 29, and is held in the inactive position by engagement of its head 31 in a capsule 33. |

A projectile includes a body containing pyrotechnic material. A rear cap closes a rear end of the body. A pyrotechnic unit includes an ignitor in communication with the pyrotechnic material. A striker is arranged to strike a primer of the pyrotechnic unit. A safety lever is arranged initially to restrain movement of the striker towards the pyrotechnic unit. An external safety keeper is arranged initially to clamp a portion of the safety lever to the body. |

The invention relates to a detonator system for hand grenades, having an ignition element (1) which after initiation triggers a delay and safety device, which, with a time delay after the initiation, fires a detonator (7), which then ignites an ignition booster (8), wherein the delay and safety device includes a dual safety device of two independent parts. So that the hand grenade detonator system according to the invention includes a purely pyrotechnic detonator system instead of a pyrotechnic-mechanical system, it is suggested that the delay and safety device consists of two pyrotechnic ignition delay devices with different delay times—specifically a safety element (3) and a delay element (4)—wherein the delay time of the safety element (3) is shorter than the delay time of the delay element (4), and the safety element (3) includes a timing composition which, once it has burned through, ignites a gas charge (9), the gas of which opens blocking elements (5), and the delay element (4) includes a firing charge, and the firing charge is only in operative connection with the detonator (7) after the opening of the blocking elements (5). |

An energy transfer device (10) is provided that is capable of transferring the energy output from one pyrotechnic device (52) to another device (78) for initiating firing thereof. Device (10) comprises a device housing (12) in which a deformable device insert (14) is received. Device insert (14) comprises a central passageway (34) for transmitting the output from a pyrotechnic device (52), including energy, gasses, and/or solids, to another pyrotechnic device (78). The passageway (34) conducts the pyrotechnic device output to a precise location on the second pyrotechnic device (78) where firing is most effectively initiated. The energy transfer device (10) may be employed as a part of a tool (44) used in well completion operations. |

Disclosed is a projectile that is designed to be lethal to an average human for a predetermined time or a distance after being fired and then rendered less than lethal. The projectile can include a detonating charge and optionally a fuze wherein the detonating charge fragments the projectile to render the projectile less than lethal. The projectile can also include a mechanism to disable the fragmentation of the projectile after it strikes a target. |
