RESW CARTRIDGE AND PROPELLANT CHARGE Russian patent published in 2017 - IPC F42B5/00 

FIELD: weapons and ammunition.

SUBSTANCE: invention relates to ammunition, in particular, to remote electric-shock weapon (RESW) cartridges and propellant charges for them. RESW cartridge comprises a non-current-conductive case with a barrel channel, a shell with a current lead laying and a device for fixing on the target, as well as a propellant charge with an obturator. Barrel channel is made with a blind bottom with a thickness of at least 1.5 of the barreled channel wall thickness in the most thick section place. Inside the barreled channel there is an output of the conductive element from the external surface of the case or the current lead inside the case. Laying of the current lead is made in a solid or a deformable shell with an output and fixing of the current lead end from the laying rear end to the front end of the case. Propellant charge of the RESW cartridge is sensitive to an electric-spark and a thermal initiating pulse. Charge is a mixture of a fuel and an oxidizer. As the fuel the charge comprises dehydrated with partial thermal decomposition of potassium hexacyanoferrate(II), and as the oxidant – potassium perchlorate.

EFFECT: provided is higher efficiency of the ammunition.
