Benefits of technology

The invention is a durable gun silencer that effectively dissipates heat generated while shooting automatic and semiautomatic guns. It prevents muzzle flash and is easy to assemble, disassemble, and clean. The silencer includes a canister with a cylindrical cavity and a first plurality of fins that extend out from the outer surface of the canister. The fins increase the surface area of the canister, which enhances heat dissipation. This design helps to prevent heat related distortions and baffle strikes during use.

Problems solved by technology

However, existing silencers have a variety of drawbacks.
For example, many of these gun silencers do not provide sufficient rate of heat dissipation, causing the silencers to overheat.
The heat generated from firing ammunition can accumulate and often cause heat related distortions and baffle strikes during use, which can degrade performance of the silencer and negatively affect the trajectory of the projectile.
The first plurality of fins can increase a surface area of the canister and thereby can increase a rate of heat dissipation of the canister.

Modular Silencer Assembly

[0036]FIGS. 1-12C shows a modular silencer assembly 100. The assembly 100 includes an adapter or proximal cap 1 that can removably couple (e.g., via threads) to a proximal end 12 of a tube 10 (see FIGS. 4A-4C). The tube 10 can have a length L, which can optionally be approximately 5 inches, approximately 7 inches, approximately 9 inches, or approximately 11 inches. The tube 10 can have other suitable lengths L.

[0037]A rear or proximal expansion chamber 2′ can be defined between a proximal tube portion 2 and an inner surface 11 of the tube 10. The proximal tube portion 2 can have a threaded end 2a (see FIGS. 5A-5D) that removably couples to a threaded coupling 1a (see FIGS. 12A-12C) of the adapter or proximal cap 1. The proximal tube portion 2 also has a reduced threaded end 2b that optionally extends through an opening 3a of a chamber separator 3 (see FIGS. 11A-11C) and a lip 2c that optionally abuts against a shoulder 3b of the chamber separator 3. The redu...

Abstract

A canister for a silencer assembly including one or more fins is disclosed. The one or more fins can define one or more channels. The fins and the channels together can increase the surface area of the silencer assembly, thereby increasing the rate of heat dissipation from the silencer assembly.

Description

INCORPORATION BY REFERENCE TO ANY PRIORITY APPLICATIONS[0001]Any and all applications for which a foreign or domestic priority claim is identified in the Application Data Sheet as filed with the present application are hereby incorporated by reference under 37 CFR 1.57 and should be considered a part of this specification.BACKGROUNDField[0002]This invention relates broadly to gun silencers that can be readily assembled and disassembled in the field in a variety of different configurations, and more particularly to a modular gun silencer with improved heat dissipation.Description of the Related Art[0003]There are a number of gun silencers on the market having various baffles and intermediate spacers mounted in outer tubes thereof. However, existing silencers have a variety of drawbacks. For example, many of these gun silencers do not provide sufficient rate of heat dissipation, causing the silencers to overheat. The heat generated from firing ammunition can accumulate and often cause...
