Patent number: 11629945Abstract: In order to improve safety, particularly during transportation and/or storage, a system (10) is proposed which at least comprises a housing (13) an explosive (3) held therein which is initiated by a blasting cap (1), wherein a sleeve insert (2, 2?) in the housing (13) makes it possible for the blasting cap (1) to be removed from the explosive (3), in that the blasting cap (1) in the sleeve insert (2, 2?) is height-adjustable, so that the position of the blasting cap (1) relative to the explosive (3) can be changed. The system (10) may include a fuse head (11) which at least comprises a primer cap and possibly a delay line (14). The blasting cap (1) may be an integral part of the fuse head (11) and insulated therewith on the base.Type: GrantFiled: July 9, 2020Date of Patent: April 18, 2023Assignee: Rheinmetall Waffe Munition ARGES GmbHInventor: Graf Helge

Publication number: 20170363400Abstract: A rocker arm detonator is provided that includes a detonator head, which includes a pivotably arranged firing pin which is acted upon by a firing pin spring, and has a safety clip, which is pivotably disposed in the same direction of rotation as the firing pin from a starting position, in which it is pressed in the direction of the detonator head to a firing pin release position. To reliably avoid an unintentional detonation of the rocker arm detonator prior to its proper use, when the rocker arm detonator is not in use, the firing pin spring is in its untensioned state and may be tensioned by a separate tensioning lever as soon as the rocker arm detonator is to be properly deployed.Type: ApplicationFiled: June 17, 2016Publication date: December 21, 2017Applicant: Rheinmetall Waffe Munition ARGES GmbHInventor: Helge GRAF

Patent number: 8336461Abstract: Building on a modular construction of a hand grenade (10), the invention provides a module (1) that can be integrated in the hand grenade (10) and can be equipped with a hollow charge insert (3) in order to act as an armor-penetrating part. The module (1), including the hollow charge insert (3), can be fixed (mounted, screwed, clipped, etc.) at the bottom end of the hand grenade (10) and is attached to the armored element. In the simplest form, the hand grenade (10) is put down, in the case of side walls possibly hung on, and the hand grenade (10) is attached so that the hollow charge insert (3) can exert an adequate effect on the target medium.Type: GrantFiled: December 17, 2009Date of Patent: December 25, 2012Assignee: Rheinmetall Waffe Munition Arges GmbHInventor: Arnulf Reinmüller
