58 results about "Rifling" patented technology

In firearms, rifling refers to the helical groovings that are machined into the internal (bore) surface of a gun's barrel, for the purpose of exerting torque and thus imparting a spin to a projectile around its longitudinal axis during shooting. This spin serves to gyroscopically stabilize the projectile by conservation of angular momentum, improving its aerodynamic stability and accuracy over smoothbore designs.

Compensator for aerial platform payload

Examples provide a compensator for a firearm. In one example, a firearm assembly includes a firearm having a barrel defining a projectile bore along a bore axis, an attachment mechanism coupled to the firearm and configured to mount the firearm to a movable platform, and a compensator attached to the barrel. The compensator may have a body that defines at least one compensator port configured to vent a portion of gases exiting the barrel upon firing the firearm. In one example, the compensator is oriented on the barrel to direct the portion of gases vented through the at least one compensator port in a direction to counteract angular recoil forces on the movable platform to which the firearm is mounted, the angular recoil forces being caused upon firing of the firearm.

Method for increasing effective range, destructive force and accuracy by having counterweight jacket for moving center of gravity of bullet (SHELL) forward

The present invention relates to a method for improving flight stability, effective range, accuracy, and destructive force by moving the center of gravity of a bullet (shell) forward, and the bullet (shell). To this end, the front part of a counterweight jacket of the bullet (shell) is designed to be thicker or higher in density than the rear part thereof, so that the center of gravity is naturally moved forward. This structural feature stabilizes the trajectory by minimizing the yaw angle during flight, and increases the force of impact transmission to the target. In addition, a material having a low specific gravity is used inside a gunpowder contact part and the rear part to further strengthen the effect of moving the center of gravity to the front part. The present invention can maintain a stable flight trajectory in both ground and underwater environments, and maximizes the performance of a bullet (shell) to increase an effective range, destructive force, and accuracy.
