A removable adapter fits over a standard baton end cap to add wedge or domed grip styles while cutting manufacturing and inventory complexity.
Four pivoting locking wedges form a removable split ring that lets a telescoping baton be disassembled for repair without losing lock stability.
Annular grooves, elastic locks, and threaded support tubes maintain locking function while simplifying manufacture and replacement.
A safety locking mechanism blocks the release button via a sliding key, preventing accidental expansion of the elastic baton.
Cylindrical shaft with spring-loaded pin distributes impact force evenly, eliminating point loading damage during rapid deployment.
A self-defense whip uses a flexible cord with sliding annular weights and a catch mechanism to create an effective defensive arc.
Segmented clutch plates engage single slots in extendable baton sections, eliminating lubrication needs and preventing dirt accumulation that seizes mechanisms.
Pivotable arms adjust electrode spacing on an electrified baton shaft, delivering stimulus signals through tissue for neuromuscular incapacitation.
Magnetic retention replaces mechanical clips to eliminate wear while maintaining reliable collapsed state for solid striking rods.
Segmented locking pieces rotate around a central ring to solve complexity-strength trade-offs in expandable batons.
