Patent number: 7150231Abstract: An active part of an ammunition device. A casing is provided with a sleeve in association with an opening of the casing. A sprung device is arranged between a locking device arranged at the opening of the casing and the sleeve. The end of the sleeve facing away from the sprung device contacts an explosive charge arranged inside the casing of the active part or a liner arranged on the surface of the explosive charge which faces towards the sleeve and the locking device. The locking device is designed to be released from the casing by the action of a force. The active part keeps the active part intact even if materials in the active part have greatly varying coefficients of thermal expansion, while at the same time, in extreme temperatures, the active part is prevented from detonating by the locking device being released from the casing.Type: GrantFiled: March 26, 2004Date of Patent: December 19, 2006Assignee: Saab ABInventor: Göran Olofsson

Patent number: 6116097Abstract: The invention relates to a method and means for detecting chemical contaminants on the ground. A tracked or wheeled vehicle is driven on the ground in question and a sampling screen (2) arranged as a mudflap in connection with at least one track/wheel of the vehicle is thereby contaminated by particles (3) thrown up from the ground, and an air stream carrying substances evaporated from said particles is caused to flow from said sampling screen (2) through a conduit (6) via a detection unit (4) in the vehicle. The sampling screen (2) is preferably provided with a heating device (11) to enhance the evaporation of possible chemicals from said particles.Type: GrantFiled: August 19, 1999Date of Patent: September 12, 2000Inventors: Tage Berglund, Sune Nyholm, Goran Olofsson

Patent number: 5796030Abstract: A mine has a casing which encloses an explosive and a primary charge arranged in the center of the explosive near the bottom of the mine. A liner is connected over the explosive in order to delimit the explosive to generate the shape charge effect and a spacing member is arranged between the primary charge and the liner. The spacing member has an upper portion which defines an opening and a lower portion which faces the bottom of the mine. The lower portion of the spacing member is shaped substantially as a circumference of a frustrum of a cone, with a base facing towards the bottom of the mine. A triggering arrangement, having a fuze and a trigger is supported by a holder. The holder is located above the opening in the spacing member. The trigger extends from an upper side of the mine through the opening to act on the primary charge.Type: GrantFiled: September 13, 1996Date of Patent: August 18, 1998Assignee: Bofors ABInventor: Goran Olofsson

Patent number: 4833093Abstract: The present invention relates to a method of silanizing surfaces for use in detecting organic molecules and biomolecules by means of surface-sensitive detection methods. The molecules to be detected become covalently bonded to the solid, plane test surface which contains, by means of silanization, groups which are functional for the covalent bonding. The invention relates to a silanization technique, which combines a special cleaning technique for the surfaces to be silanized and a silanization process at a low pressure and with the silane in gas phase and at an enhanced temperature of the surfaces to be silanized. The method gives reproducible surfaces provided with stable, homogenous and functional silane layers of mono-layer character.Type: GrantFiled: October 21, 1987Date of Patent: May 23, 1989Assignee: Forsvarets ForskningsanstaltInventors: Magnus Malmqvist, Goran Olofsson

Patent number: 4808538Abstract: According to the invention a piezoelectric crystal, e.g. a quartz crystal, coated with a metal or another suitable material is exposed to the action of a corrosive liquid, preferably by being immersed therein. The mass change on the crystal surface, caused by the corrosion, and the resulting change in the natural oscillation frequency of the crystal is determined and constitutes a measure of the corrosivity of the liquid. The natural oscillation frequency of the crystal can in this way also be measured in situ in the liquid, in which way the dynamic course of the corrosion reaction can be followed continuously. According to a special embodiment of the invention the sensitivity during the measurement can be increased, if the crystal is pretreated by being activated with a sulphide solution.Type: GrantFiled: November 18, 1985Date of Patent: February 28, 1989Assignee: Forsvarets ForskningsanstaltInventors: Roger Roffey, Goran Olofsson, Anders Norqvist, Goran Hulten

Patent number: 4506603Abstract: Arrangement for a land mine which is provided with at least one magnetic field sensing device which is arranged to initiate detonation of the mine when a change in the magnetic field is sensed. A magnetic body is laid out loosely underneath the mine so that when the mine is raised from the ground this results in the mine being removed from the magnetic body, so that a change in the magnetic field which initiates detonation of the mine is sensed by the magnetic field sensing device.Type: GrantFiled: February 18, 1983Date of Patent: March 26, 1985Assignee: Forenade FabriksverkenInventors: Sven Bjelvert, Goran Olofsson, Per Nystrom

Patent number: 3954027Abstract: A sealing device for a control lever extending through an opening in an element. Of an opening-surrounding sealing member, which is tightly secured to the control lever, a portion is by one end of a spring pressed into contact with an opening-surrounding guide groove in the element. The other end of the spring is connected to the device to be influenced by the control lever, thus allowing relative motion between the element and said device.Type: GrantFiled: July 5, 1974Date of Patent: May 4, 1976Assignee: Saab-Scania AktiebolagInventors: Tage Ernst Soderberg, Sten-Goran Olofsson, Nils Hilding Nilsson
