ABSTRACT:
A long range electrified projectile immobilization system is mainly comprised of a launching device, a projectile and a high voltage electric pulse current generator. The projectile has two rotary arms which can rotate around hinges on the projectile head at an arc toward the target, there are two pointed electrodes affixed on the rear end of the two rotary arms, these two pointed electrodes are connected to the high voltage electric pulse current generator by two trailing wires. There is also an electric arc sensitive deploying squib inside the projectile and interlock with the two rotary arms, so that these two rotary arms can not separated from each other until the deploying squib is destroyed or removed from the projectile. Once the projectile is launched out by the launching device and hits a target, the deploying squib is initiated by the high voltage electric pulse current, the explosion of the deploying squib will destroy the interlock relation with the two rotary arms and force them rotate around the hinges at an arc toward the target, thus deploy the two pointed electrodes onto the target. The high voltage electric pulse current that conduct through the target from the two electrodes will immobilize the human or animal target.
