Color marker projectile
View Patent ↗A color marker projectile, which is intended as a non-lethal projectile to mark a hit with color, is located in the projectile itself and is poured over the target on impact. The projectile is launched from a conversion kit (new barrel and bolt) of a real weapon. The color marker projectile includes a front part, a rear part, an inserted element and a color filler. The front part is formed as a semicircular cylindrical part with vertical ribs. The inserted element is positioned to complete the concluded cylindrical part of the front part. The color filler and the inserted element are positioned on the inside of the front part. The color filler is located at the contact point between the front part and the rear part.
1. A color marker projectile comprising:
a front part formed as a domed cylinder with ribs forming a dome of the front part;
a rear part which is partially encapsulated by the front part;
an inserted element positioned within and engaging the dome of the front part; and
a color filler, wherein: the color filler and the inserted element are positioned on the inside of the hollow portion of the front part, and the color filler occupies a cavity formed by the inserted element, the rear part, and the front part.
2. The color marker projectile of claim 1 , wherein: a lower, cylindrically-shaped completion of the front part includes a groove locked with a ring of the rear part, and the rear part also has a sealing ring for sealing gases between a barrel and the projectile.
3. The color marker projectile of claim 1 , wherein: the ribs are connected at an apex of the dome of the front part when the projectile is undischarged.
4. The color marker projectile of claim 3 , wherein: a lower, cylindrically-shaped completion of the front part includes a groove locked with a ring of the rear part, and the rear part also has a sealing ring for sealing gases between a barrel and the projectile.
5. The color marker projectile of claim 1 , wherein: the inserted element has a shape of a geometric solid figure.
6. The color marker projectile of claim 5 , wherein: a lower, cylindrically-shaped completion of the front part includes a groove locked with a ring of the rear part, and the rear part also has a sealing ring for sealing gases between a barrel and the projectile.
7. The color marker projectile of claim 5 , wherein the geometric solid figure is one of a ball, a cuboid, and a cylinder.
8. The color marker projectile of claim 1 , wherein the inserted element is made from a thermoplastic polyurethane material.
