Benefits of technology

The present invention is a breaching device that can create a linear and non-linear cut or breach in a metal structure. The device includes containers that hold reactive material (RM) and are sealed to prevent harm. The RM can be ignited electronically or by other means. The device can be used in a variety of conditions and is manageable under different circumstances. It can be rotated and / or oscillated to cut through thick-walled structures, such as oilrig legs, without causing harm to people or equipment. The device is non-explosive and can be used close to barges and boats. It uses RM feed assemblies that are spring-mounted or otherwise configured for extension and refraction to reduce the overall diameter of the device during insertion. The nozzles of the device have a rectangular shape to improve cutting efficiency, and a converging-diverging nozzle geometry is used to increase the momentum of the burning RM and hold it in place during rotation.

Problems solved by technology

They can also be unwieldy and difficult to apply on other than flat surfaces.

second embodiment

[0082]a cutting / welding device of the present invention is shown in FIG. 8 as a gun. The gun and / or components and variants of components thereof are shown in FIGS. 8-12 and include the gun barrel 1, the breech 5, a muzzle loading cutting component 24, a heat resistant tube 26, an impact-initiated primer 27, a cutting nozzle 28, an inert breech plug 29, a nozzle plug 30, which may be frangible or ablative, a muzzle loading tack welding device 31, the RM 7, the hollow flame tube 10, the RM ignition initiator 11, the slot opening 17 for the cutting component 24, and the pointed end 21 and the internal chamber 23 for the muzzle loading tack welding device 31.

[0083]The heat resistant tube 26 is configured to extend substantially the entire length of the gun barrel 1 and extending through the breech 5, is fitted with a center fire primer 27 or impact initiated electronic device at the point where the gun's hammer can ignite the device corresponding in that manner to the operation of the ...

first embodiment

[0086]As seen in FIG. 10, the tube 26 is elongate with the nozzle 28 affixed thereto. The end of the device 24 that extends into the breech is provided with the primer 27 that is exploded into the flame tube 10 that extends longitudinally through the center of the device 24 and prevents the ignition of the surrounding RM 7. At the muzzle end of the device 24, and behind the cutting nozzle 28 is the RM Initiator 11 that activates the RM 7. As described in the first embodiment above, the nozzle 28 has a cylindrical outer shape with the V shaped or concave front face 18 with the slot 17 situated 90° through the center of the face 18. The slot 17 may be plugged with plug 30, which may be a frangible or ablative material to protect the interior of the device 24 from environmental hazards during storage.

[0087]Like the previously described embodiment, the cutting nozzle 28 may have a slotted or some other configuration designed to increase the cutting efficiency of the torch established up...

Abstract

A breaching device for cutting through a substrate. There are several embodiments of the breaching device. In one embodiment, the device includes a hub assembly with a rotatable ring and a plurality of RM feed assemblies attached to the ring. In another embodiment, the device includes a disc, wherein the disc is rotatable and includes a plurality of slots, a shaft joined to the disc about which the disc rotates and a plurality of RM feed assemblies attached to the disc and arranged in the slots thereof. In another embodiment, the device includes a plurality of carts linked together, wherein each of the carts includes a cart body to which is coupled to an idler wheel, a wheel with an in-wheel motor and a platform and for each cart, a RM feed assembly retained on the platform. The RM feed assemblies include ejected nozzles that may be positioned at selectable angles.
