| 摘要 | An explosive device which can be a projectile or land mine has a cylindrical body containing an axially movable tube filled with glycerin, and spaced by a breakable plug from a chamber containing nitric acid. An explosive charge at one end of the tube violently drives it axially to break the plug so the glycerin mixes with the nitric acid to form nitroglycerin which explodes. Walls of the cylindrical body may contain shrapnel. As a projectile, the device may be arranged to explode in air or on impact against an obstacle. As a land mine, the device can be fired by application of a predetermined weight which triggers the explosive charge. | ||||||
| 权利要求 | 2. An explosive device as defined in claim 1, further comprising an axially projecting element containing another explosive charge at the other end of said first body, said other explosive charge being exposed to the first named explosive charge, whereby said other explosive charge explodes on impact with an obstacle to explode the first named explosive charge, so that the tubular container is driven axially into said second body. 3. An explosive device as defined in claim 2, further comprising a third cylindrical body attachable to the other end of the second body and containing a further explosive charge, said third cylindrical body being mountable in a gun for firing said further explosive charge to project the device axially. 4. An explosive device as defined in claim 1, further comprising a third cylindrical body attachable to the other end of the first cylindrical body and containing another explosive charge, said other explosive charge being exposed to the first named explosive charge to explode the same and drive said tubular container into said second cylindrical body. 5. An explosive device as defined in claim 1, further comprising a third cylindrical body attachable to the other end of the first named cylindrical body and containing another explosive charge, said other cylindrical body being mountable in a gun for firing said other explosive charge to project the device in air. 6. An explosive device as defined in claim 1, further comprising a third cylindrical body attachable to the first cylindrical body and containing another explosive charge exposed to the first named explosive charge; and movable pin means in said third cylindrical body for firing said other explosive charge to explode the first named explosive charge. 7. An explosive device as defined in claim 6, further comprising another disc movably mounted at one end of said third cylindrical body and responsive to a weight placed upon it for advancing said pin to fire the other explosive charge. 8. An explosive device as defined in claim 6, further comprising another disc movably mounted at one end of said third cylindrical body and responsive to a weight placed thereon to move therewith; and trigger means in said third cylindrical body responsive to movement of said other disc to explode said other explosive charge. |
