Electric-percussion bullet

Abstract

Disclosed is an electric-percussion bullet. The bullet comprises three parts which are a warhead, a cartridge case and a gunpowder cabin, wherein a small piece of metal resistance wire is installed in the gunpowder cabin and is enabled to be embedded in gunpowder to be in direct contact with the gunpowder, two ends of the resistance wire are connected through a wire and then protrude out through a small hole in the rear part of the cartridge case, and the two protruded wire heads are manufactured into two discontiguous flat electric contacts which are fixed on the rear part of the bullet. Therefore, when certain voltage is applied on the two electric contacts, currents are generated in the resistance wire, and then the resistance wire generates high temperature immediately and burns, the gunpowder in the gunpowder cabin of the bullet is ignited to explode, and further percussion of the bullet is achieved.

Description

[0001] technical field [0002] The present invention relates to a bullet that can be fired by electric current ignition. Background technique [0003] The bullets used in firearms in history are almost all mechanical firing bullets. Mechanical firing is to use high-speed machinery to hit the tail of the bullet to make the igniting powder at the tail of the bullet explode and ignite the powder chamber of the bullet, causing a second explosion to push the bullet out. The firing method, this mechanical firing method is still commonly used in military firearms all over the world today. The mechanical firing method of bullets is much more advanced than the original wire ignition method. The bullets are waterproof and the firing speed is also very fast. People seem to be satisfied with the firing method of bullets, but let's take a closer look: mechanical firing requires high-speed Impact, on the one hand, it takes time to produce such an impact, on the other hand, it needs a seri...

Problems solved by technology

[0004] Some foreign military experts are already researching bullets and firearms fired by electric shocks. Some use electric pulses to generate electric sparks. For example, the "Metal Storm" bullet firing system developed by Australia is claimed to be the most advanced in the world. This system uses electric pulses to fire Although this system is successful in the test, it has frequent failures, dangers and other problems, so it cannot be put into practical use.
