US12624934 - Hand-throwable effect-producing body with a manually graspable housing body and method for operating a hand-throwable effect-producing body

A hand-throwable effect-producing body with a manually graspable housing body, a manually operable triggering device having a spring-loaded impact body, an ignition device initiatable by the triggering device and comprises an ignition charge, a delay device is initiatable by the ignition device and comprises a delay charge and a delay line, and a main charge configured to be initiated directly or indirectly by the delay charge. The impact body is configured to be manually moved along the longitudinal axis thereof counter to a spring force into a preloaded position and to be releasably arrested there and to be released by manually operating a triggering element of the triggering device, such that it can shoot out of its preloaded position along the longitudinal axis against an axial stop and thereby initiate the ignition charge.

The patent describes a hand-throwable effect-producing device featuring a manually graspable housing, a spring-loaded impact body, and an ignition system that includes a delay mechanism. The device allows the impact body to be preloaded and released manually to initiate an ignition charge, enabling the production of effects upon throwing.

Claim 1

1 . A hand-throwable effect-producing body comprising: a manually graspable housing body; a manually operable triggering device with a spring-loaded impact body; an ignition device that is initiatable by the triggering device, the ignition device comprises an ignition charge; a delay device that is initiatable by the ignition device, the delay device comprises a delay charge and a delay line; and a main charge that is initiatable directly or indirectly by the delay charge, wherein the impact body comprises the ignition device together with the ignition charge and the delay device together with the delay charge and the delay line, wherein the impact body is manually movable along a longitudinal axis thereof counter to a spring force into a preloaded position and is releasably arrestable there and is releasable by manually operating a triggering element of the triggering device such that the impact body is adapted to shoot out of the preloaded position along the longitudinal axis against an axial stop and thereby initiate the ignition charge, wherein the triggering device comprises a manually grippable tensioning element via which the impact body is movable into the preloaded position, and wherein the manually grippable tensioning element is arranged so as to be pivotable about the longitudinal axis with respect to the housing body and also with respect to the impact body. a manually graspable housing body; a manually operable triggering device with a spring-loaded impact body; an ignition device that is initiatable by the triggering device, the ignition device comprises an ignition charge; a delay device that is initiatable by the ignition device, the delay device comprises a delay charge and a delay line; and a main charge that is initiatable directly or indirectly by the delay charge, wherein the impact body comprises the ignition device together with the ignition charge and the delay device together with the delay charge and the delay line, wherein the impact body is manually movable along a longitudinal axis thereof counter to a spring force into a preloaded position and is releasably arrestable there and is releasable by manually operating a triggering element of the triggering device such that the impact body is adapted to shoot out of the preloaded position along the longitudinal axis against an axial stop and thereby initiate the ignition charge, wherein the triggering device comprises a manually grippable tensioning element via which the impact body is movable into the preloaded position, and wherein the manually grippable tensioning element is arranged so as to be pivotable about the longitudinal axis with respect to the housing body and also with respect to the impact body.
