AI Technical Summary

Technical Problem

Current projectile systems face challenges in increasing range and penetration power while maintaining agility, as adding mass and length to the barrel reduces agility and is affected by gravity and air resistance.

Method used

Replacing the projectile's mass with a small mass at the front, equipped with a rocket engine, to enhance speed and impact force, using fuel from a combustion chamber.

Benefits of technology

Enhances projectile range, penetration power, accuracy, and ability to navigate adverse weather, including water, with improved agility.

Abstract

The proposed technique is depending on decreasing the mass of the applicable bullets and its position in the front of the bullet as well as modifying the remaining body of the projectile by a rocket engine and a group of fins during the movability of the projectile toward the target. This technique is working when the projectile exits the pipe of the gun which in turn will increase the ability of the projectile to resist the force of gravity and the air friction. This in turn will resulting in an increasing of the speed of the projectile ongoing to the target and will increase its effective range.

Description

DescriptionTechnical Field

[0001] The present invention relates based on a technology improving the performance of fire projectiles, starting from air pressure rifle bullets, fire bullets, and even heavy machine gun bullets, as well as any bullets that depend on the propulsion system of pressure inside the barrel, whether this pressure results from compressed air pressure, a fiery explosion, or moving the projectile in motion as a result of a magnetic effectBackground Art

[0002] Most projectiles in the current systems rely on pushing the projectile with maximum force from the barrel to the outside and placing a heavy metal block to give the projectile the greatest possible kinetic energy to reach the target forcefully to cause a strong impact with it.Summary of Invention

[0003] Introducing missile propulsion technology to projectiles will increase the range of the projectile and the power of its penetration into objects.Technical Problem

[0004] The technical problem can be summarized as the increase of the projectile range will require increasing the length of the barrel, increasing the propellant substance, and increasing the total mass of the projectile.

[0005] Increasing all of the above reduces agility

[0006] Increasing the mass of the projectile leads to an increase in the force of the Earth’s gravity acts up on itSolution to Problem

[0007] To overcome these problems, the new technology will replace the mass present in the entire body of the projectile with a small mass in the front part of the projectile to cause injury or penetration, and the new mass will be attached to a rocket engine that increases its speed and thus achieves two goals: impact force and effective range of the projectile in an amount that depends on the fuel used inside the projectile combustion chamberAdvantageous Effects of InventionAchieving a greater range with the same weapon with by the same bullet .The force of penetrating to the target increases as the head of the projectile becomes more rigid and moves faster by using the proposed technology.Increasing the accuracy of hitting at long distances due to the speed of the projectile toward the target.Increasing the ability of the projectile to reach the target within bad weather conditions such as rain and wind.Increasing the projectile's ability to reach to aerial targets.Increasing the ability of the projectile to move within the water medium to a better degree.Brief Description of DrawingsFig.1

Claims

Claims

1. The projectile head is in the front of the projectile, which was reduced in size, pointed in the front and be concaved in the interior.

2. The combustion and the gas pressure storage chamber is the one in which the projectile’s propellant substance and the generated pressure from combustion of the propellant material are located.

3. The jet or throttle is the nozzle through which gases are released in an intense rush to generate a driving force for the projectile in the opposite direction. Its diameter is ranging from 10% to 60% of the diameter of the projectile.

4. The nozzle is the place where the pressure coming out of the jet or throttle is collected and directed in the opposite direction of the projectile to increase its speed. Its outer diameter is ranging from 30% to 80% of the projectile’s diameter.

5. The inclined fins, whose base starts from the projectile’s external body up to the nozzle, take an inclination angle from 1 to 30 degrees from the projectile’s body and up to the nozzle. The inclination angle was chosen to generate a rotational movement of the projectile around itself match the propagation direction of the shells. The shape of the fins is semi-circular at its edges to collect the largest possible amount of air for increasing the stability of the projectile

6. [Element 6] The body of the projectile has the same diameter as the projectile’s firing pipe. It is convex at the front to tightly seal the projectile’s head and it is convex at the back to gather the pressure generated by the explosion gases; this will take advantage of convexity in fins formation process. Inclined fins have number ranges between 3-9
