Patent

CA 2348982

The invention provides a combination of a gun having a barrel and propellant means for launching a projectile from the barrel; and a non-lethal projectile (14); characterised in that the non-lethal projectile (14) comprises a hollow outer casing (20) formed from a resiliently deformable material, and a plurality of balls (22) within the casing, the outer casing (20) being deformed as it travels along the gun barrel under pressure from the propellant means but being sufficiently resilient to resile to a substantially undeformed state upon leaving the gun barrel. The invention also provides projectiles (14) for use in the aforesaid gun and cartridges containing the projectiles.

L'invention concerne une combinaison d'une arme à canon et un moyen propulseur destiné à lancer un projectile hors dudit canon, et d'un projectile (14) non mortel. Ledit projectile (14) consiste en une enveloppe extérieure (20) creuse, constituée d'un matériau déformable de manière élastique, et une pluralité de balles (22) à l'intérieur de l'enveloppe, l'enveloppe extérieure (20) se déformant lorsqu'elle parcourt le canon de l'arme sous la pression du moyen propulseur, mais restant suffisamment élastique pour se relâcher et reprendre une forme sensiblement non déformée lorsqu'elle sort du canon de l'arme. L'invention traite également des projectiles (14) à utiliser avec l'arme précitée ainsi que des cartouches contenant lesdits projectiles.
