Hand-throwable effect-producing body with a manually graspable housing body and method for operating a hand-throwable effect-producing body

A hand-throwable effect-producing body comprising:

• a manually graspable housing body:
• a manually operable triggering device with a spring-loaded impact body;
• an ignition device that is initiatable by the triggering device, the ignition device comprises an ignition charge;
• a delay device that is initiatable by the ignition device, the delay device comprises a delay charge and a delay line;
• and
• a main charge that is initiatable directly or indirectly by the delay charge,
• wherein the impact body comprises the ignition device together with the ignition charge and the delay device together with the delay charge and the delay line,
• wherein the impact body is manually movable along a longitudinal axis thereof counter to a spring force into a preloaded position and is releasably arrestable there and is releasable by manually operating a triggering element of the triggering device such that the impact body is adapted to shoot out of the preloaded position along the longitudinal axis against an axial stop and thereby initiate the ignition charge,
• wherein the impact body is releasably lockable in the preloaded position by a spring-loaded locking member interlockingly engaging behind the impact body in the direction of the longitudinal axis, and
• wherein the spring-loaded locking member is movable linearly back and forth transversely to the longitudinal axis.
