Hollow-channel projectile nose and shaping of a projectile body in the nose region

摘要

The invention relates to a projectile having a cylindrical hole (15) arranged at the nose as seen in the firing direction, said hole (15) extending coaxially with the longitudinal axis (12) of the projectile and a projectile nose (1) being inserted into this hole, wherein the longitudinal axis (12) of the projectile at the same time also forms the longitudinal axis of the projectile nose (1). In order that accelerated expansion of the projectile occurs when the projectile strikes a soft medium, it is proposed according to the invention that an open hollow channel (5) is introduced in the projectile nose (1) coaxially with the longitudinal axis (12), said hollow channel (5) extending from the front end (22) to the rear end (23) of the projectile nose (1), as seen in the firing direction, and a membrane (6) is arranged in the hollow channel (5), said membrane dividing the hollow channel (5) into two hollow-channel portions (5a, 5b).

主权项

1. A projectile comprising a cylindrical bore arranged at the tip, as seen in the direction of firing, the bore running coaxially with a longitudinal axis of the projectile and a projectile tip is inserted into this bore, a clearance being provided between the inserted projectile tip and a bottom of the bore within the projectile, wherein the longitudinal axis of the projectile also forms the longitudinal axis of the projectile tip, characterized in that an open hollow channel is formed coaxially with the longitudinal axis in the projectile tip, extending from the front end to the rear end of the projectile tip in the direction of firing, and a membrane which divides the hollow channel into two hollow channels sections is provided in the hollow channel,
wherein the projectile is configured to undergo an accelerated expansion when the projectile strikes a medium.
