ABSTRACT:
A battering ram device is provided for allowing quick forcible entry through locked closures. The device includes a ram that slides within and partially out of a housing. The ram is connected to a piston which also slides within a cylindrical housing. The housing is connected to a firing mechanism that uses an explosive cartridge for driving the piston forwardly and subsequently forcing the ram partially out of its housing to deliver a blow to a closure. The piston and cylinder further include an energy absorbing mechanism for retarding the motion of the ram once it penetrates through a closure. The ram can be configured as a thin rectangular piece for allowing the ram to fit between a door knob and jamb of most doors. Other ram configurations include a punch for effectively knocking out a door lock of a steel or metal door, and a shearing head for effectively cutting a steel cable, bar, or wire.
