COLLAPSIBLE PIONEER PROBE Russian patent published in 2024 - IPC F41H11/138 

FIELD: engineering weapons.

SUBSTANCE: invention relates to a portable entrenching pioneer tool. Probe comprises a handle-case made of dielectric non-magnetic material with an inner cavity for placing the needle in the stowed position, tip for handle-pencil case from dielectric non-magnetic material for holding in hand, metal non-magnetic connecting tip for handle-case, two identical extension elbows-cases made of polymer dielectric non-magnetic material with an inner cavity to accommodate the needle in the stowed position and with threaded open metal non-magnetic tip and closed metal non-magnetic tip, and a removable metal non-magnetic cap configured to install and fix the needle in the working position. Probe can also contain a handle-case and extension elbows-cases without tips, at the same time all parts, except for needles, are made of caprolon.

EFFECT: providing compactness and convenience of carrying the probe in the stowed position while maintaining reliability in operation in various operating modes, possibility of storing needles in a fixed position inside the probe structure both in the traveling and in the working position, efficiency and safety of using the probe when searching for different mines, achieved by selecting properties of materials from which parts of the probe are made.
