| 20090139391 | APPARATUS FOR REMOVING TOXIC MATERIAL FROM TOXIC WEAPON PROJECTILES - An apparatus useful in the removal of toxic materials from toxic weapon projectiles has a base, a projectile retaining container and a ram. The projectile retaining container has a projectile retainer opening, a ram opening and a drain opening. The projectile retaining container is adapted to retain a toxic weapon projectile in the projectile retainer opening. The ram is adapted to extend into a toxic weapon projectile disposed within the projectile retaining container to crush the projectile's burster well and to thereby release toxic materials to the drain opening in the projectile retaining container. The ram alternatively includes high pressure water nozzles for breaking up any coagulant particles and for thoroughly rinsing the interior side walls of the toxic weapon projectile. | 06-04-2009 |
| 20120144982 | CLOSED VESSEL ARRANGEMENT FOR SAFE DESTRUCTION OF ROCKET MOTORS - The present invention relates to a closed vessel arrangement ( | 06-14-2012 |
| 20140318353 | ENGAGING AMMUNITION PROJECTILES - An ammunition projectile engagement apparatus and method for manufacturing and using the ammunition projectile engagement apparatus are described. A first arm, a second arm, and a head are disclosed. The first arm and second arm each contain a handle section and a projectile engagement section. The surface of each projectile engagement section includes at least one engagement feature opposite another engagement feature, which when compressed, together form a pair. Each pair, when compressed together, forms at least a partial circumference for engaging a projectile. | 10-30-2014 |
| 20150135934 | METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR THE DELABORATION OF AMMUNITION - The invention relates to a method and apparatus for the delaboration of ammunition, in particular shells having a housing with a tubular housing portion made of steel and open at one end, a cone made of ductile metal and fitted into the tubular housing portion, the cone having a base with a tubular rim, and an explosive charge contained between the housing and the cone. The method comprises a) inserting an extraction tool through the open end into the tubular housing portion for extracting the cone, b) axially compressing the tubular rim of the cone between the extraction tool and the explosive charge, c) deforming a portion of the tubular rim into a form fit with the extraction tool, d) withdrawing the extraction tool from the housing portion, and e) at least partially withdrawing the cone from the housing portion together with the extraction tool. | 05-21-2015 |
| 20160076865 | DISARMING SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR DISARMING AMMUNITION CARTRIDGES - The present invention relates to a dismantling system ( | 03-17-2016 |

LOADING FIREWORKS AND BURSTING CHARGES | 3 |
| 20090211433 | FUZE MOUNTING FOR A PENETRATOR AND METHOD THEREOF - A fuze mounting assembly for a penetrating weapon configured as a projectable device, the fuze mounting assembly having fasteners, a fuze well and a fuze. The fuze includes an integral bolt flange for securing to the fuze well with the fasteners, wherein an amplification of acceleration of less than 3.0 is satisfied when the penetrating weapon is subjected to impact and penetration shock. Additionally, a projectable device having the fuze is provided. Also, a fuze mounting and a method for mounting a fuze are provided. | 08-27-2009 |
| 20120006186 | Solid Composite Propellants and Methods of Making Propellants - Solid composite propellants are provided that include a matrix comprising an energetic oxidizer and a binder. A multi-layered reactive thin film is provided in the matrix. The reactive thin film includes metal and inorganic oxidizer. Methods of making the solid composite propellants are also provided. | 01-12-2012 |
| 20120174740 | Methods of Making and Using Reactive Shaped Charge Shock Initiation Devices Including Reactive Multilayer Structures - The invention provides shock initiation devices comprising multilayer structures with constituent layers that undergo an exothermic self-propagating reaction once initiated by shock. The multilayer structures may be used as components in shaped charges, EFP devices, warheads, munition casings, interceptors, missiles, bombs, and other systems. The reactive layer materials may be selected based on required structural properties, density and reaction temperature. | 07-12-2012 |

SHOT MAKING, FIREARM TYPE | 1 |
| 20120204708 | COST-EFFECTIVE HIGH-VOLUME METHOD TO PRODUCE METAL CUBES WITH ROUNDED EDGES - This disclosure generally relates to high-volume and cost-effective methods for producing non-spherical metal particles, particularly methods for producing metal cubes having rounded edges. The metal cubes having rounded edges are useful as ballistic shot in shotshell loads for hunting, where the particle shape imparted by the disclosed process packs to a higher density than spherical shot in the same volume. | 08-16-2012 |

FEEDING DEVICES | 1 |
| 20130125737 | Bullet-Orienting System - A bullet-orienting system applies bullets to a feed tube from a source of bullets. The bullets each have a tip-end and a base-end. The bullet-orienting system includes a bullet conveyance that conveys bullets, in tip-end-down and tip-end-up orientations, from a source of bullets to a feed tube along a bullet conveyance path. A bullet-orienting structure comprising a block, a nose guide forming a ledge, a groove, and a tapered opening, and a ramp is disposed proximate the bullet conveyance path. For each tip-end-up oriented bullet, the bullet-orienting structure interacts with the tip-end-up bullet and flips the tip-end-up bullet relative to the bullet conveyance from the tip-end-up orientation to the tip-end-down orientation prior to application to the feed tube. | 05-23-2013 |

BOMB FABRICATING | 1 |
| 20120036985 | Reduced Collateral Damage Bomb (RCDB) and System and Method of Making Same - A reduced collateral damage bomb (RCDB) bomb casing is described and disclosed along with the system and method for making it. The RCDB bomb casing may be formed from conventional or penetrating warhead bomb casings. The RCDB bomb casing has a filler material/materials disposed on the interior walls that will assist in controlling the collateral damage caused by the finished bomb but not prevent the appropriate destructive power being delivered to a selected target. | 02-16-2012 |
