Laser weapon effective against aircraft and rockets - with control of immersion switches by multi-crankshaft

摘要

A laser weapon for defence against aircraft and rockets was described in parent patent. A crankshaft with nine cranks controls by pistons the immersion Q-switches against static pressure of media containers. Alternatively, the immersion switches are omitted and the primary lasers are integrated as the curved ends of the clover leaves in the secondary part, and a rotating hub acts as the light switch. This allows a stepless selection of the pulse frequency and of the exposure time by successive operation of the switches.
