Definitions

  • the present invention relates to an Anti-drone device, and more particularly to a method and an apparatus based on Kinetic and Linear Momentum Projection that disrupts the dynamic condition of the targeted vehicle, neutralizing it, and making it fall to the ground.
  • Drones as the expression used to define the broad category of unmanned aerial vehicles, are getting cheaper and easier to use and acquire. Micro and small drones run the gamut from being nuisances in the wrong air space at the wrong time to being potential threats for a lot of menaces from intel collection to becoming a weapon itself. As the current technology development in artificial intelligence and drone capabilities is making swarming drones easier to coordinate, its integration to develop harmful operations against multiple objectives becomes an extreme threat.
  • Anti-drone, guns, weapons, or other devices are any of a range of countermeasures designed to either destroy or immobilize a target drone.
  • the object will be reach by the projection of a kinetic and linear momentum device that will interfere with the drone and jam it. As result of the jam, the drone will lose the fly capabilities and will come down to earth.
  • the Kinetic and Linear Momentum Projection (KLiMom) device operates projecting its linear momentum characterized by its mass times flying speed and its kinetic momentum characterized by its inertia momentum times angular speed.
  • the initial angular speed is 3600 rpm, and the inertia momentum is concentrated on the 40 x (46-53) mm cylinder of the initial configuration.
  • the achievable range of the device will depend on the auxiliary elements utilized to support the initial projection of the device.
  • the range will span from a few ten of meters to more than a kilometre.
  • the Figure 1 presents a summary of the elements that configure the Anti-drone system.
  • the different variants presented in the figure relates to the automated versus manual launching capabilities and number of rounds per minute as well as achievable range for the device.
  • Restrictions of use applies to the military for the top of the game systems, being unrestricted for private or residential use for the bottom of the game systems with its soft air propelled launch mechanism.
  • Another object of the present invention is to provide the electronic and/or mechanical means to allow the device deployment in its final configuration as near the target as possible.
  • Another object of the present invention is to provide the necessary arrangements to the device to fit with the different launchers and propellers in the 40 mm category that would be used in the different operational and final user scenarios.
  • the launchers elements of the system are represented at 101,102,103, and 104. These elements go from the most powerful 101 limited to high end military market to the one focused on private/individual markets 104. In the 101 numeral is depicted an automatic grenade launcher capable to shot 200 till 450 rounds per minute and an effective range of 1500 metres. This machine is restricted for military use and has additional support of advance automated tracking and shutting capabilities. It can handle swarms of hundreds of drones without problem.
  • Numeral 102 presents a handheld grenade launcher also capable to shoot a few rounds automatically. Also focused on the military and defence operations it is capable to achieve targets at distances till 500 metres.
  • Numeral 103 is an equipment that is standard use in the police and security forces worldwide. The shooting is made one by one round and the range could reach 150 metres.
  • Numeral 104 is a working/plastic replica of the 103 element that could be used in domestic markets. Maximum range of these launchers is in the order of 30 metres.
  • the propulsion elements are depicted at 105, 106, 107, and 108.
  • Numeral 105 represents a high velocity and 106 a low velocity, point initiating, base detonating fuse propulsion grenade to be used with elements 101 and 102, respectively.
  • the initial speeds for these elements run from 200-240 m/s for the highspeed to 100-120 m/s for the low-speed ones.
  • Numeral 106 depicts a low velocity propulsion for use with the 103 elements with initial speed of 78-84 m/s.
  • Numeral 107 is the propulsion system for use with 104 element that achieves initial speeds of 25-35 m/s by means of soft air impulsion.
  • the device object of the present invention is depicted in numeral 109 in the moment that is initiating the flight towards the target.
  • the target is represented at numeral 110.
  • the device element is shown in more detailed at Fig 2 .
  • the initial configuration 201 of the device comprises several segments 202.
  • the minimum number of segments are two for the 104/107 element, and the standard configurations for low and high velocity propulsion elements are four and six segments, respectively.
  • Each segment is made of four pieces 203 each at 90 degrees that conforms the cylinder surface and are maintained together initially by the external container of the device 204. They exercise a pressure to the container by means of pressurized gas/spring mechanisms.
  • Each piece is an aerodynamic surface that at launch time are arranged in the cylinder form.
  • each segment is occupied by a coiled wire 205 that joins each of the aerodynamic surfaces with the axe of the device.
  • the reels of the wire can turn freely around the axe of the device 206.
  • the axe is attached to the ogive of the device 207. Within the ogive are contained the electronic boards with the appropriate sensors and circuits 208.
  • the ogive seats initially at the external surface of the device 209.
  • the trigger mechanism that liberates the ogive, axe and internal surface from the external part joining with the base of the device 210 are depicted in 211, 212, and 213. Spinning of the device is achieved at launch time exiting from the launcher tube by means of 214.
  • Numeral 215 represents the join of the device with the launch projection element.
  • the device is launched at a spin condition of 3600 rpm and near the target a trigger signal detach the external part of the device by means of 211, 212 and 213 and the elastic forces that maintained jointly the surfaces are liberated and the wires start to unroll.
  • Final configuration as depicted in numeral 216 for one segment 217, shows the four surfaces 218 spinning attached to the full length of the wires 219 and conserving the kinetic momentum of the initial configuration. (The figure is not at scale).
  • any of the wires with the drone will trigger the transfer of the combined kinetic momentum and linear momentum of the device to the target disrupting its flying conditions and pushing it to earth.
  • the transformation of the configuration of the device is trigged by an automated mechanical time delay mechanism or an artificial intelligence operated mechanism contained in the ogive of the device. First one is used with the elements 102, 103 and 104 and the second one is used with the elements 101 and 102.
  • the objective is that the device must be fully deployed in a range of 10-30 metres to the target.
  • Deployment time will take less than one second.

They are depicted sections of the axe 402, the four coils containing the wires rolled with the detailed wires of one of them 403, and the aerodynamic surface 404. The coils will turn freely around the axe of the ogive and base composite of the device.
  • Numeral 405 shows the surfaces before the deployment and 406 after the deployment.
  • the deployment of the aerodynamic surfaces is achieved not only by the action of the centripetal forces nor by the compressed air/springs which fill the surfaces, once they liberated due to the expulsion of the external cover at the signal trigger time.
  • the wires 407 are attached to the ring 408 that turns freely around the axe and to the middle of the surface 409.
  • the elements off the picture are not at scale.
  • the length of the wires as well as the material composition of them will varied accordingly with the target and the rest of the elements of the system.
