Abstract
A tactical shield handle and lighting system comprises: a handle assembly configured to be mounted on a rear surface of the tactical shield; and a lighting enclosure configured to be mounted on a front surface of the tactical shield, the lighting enclosure including one or more light sources. In use, the handle assembly is secured to the lighting enclosure through the tactical shield by one or more fastener subsystems. Each of the one or more fastener subsystems includes: a fastener post; a ballistic deflection cone mounted to a distal end of the fastener post; and a retaining spring positioned around an upper section of the fastener post and compressed between a flange section of the fastener post and the ballistic deflection cone.

A handle and lighting system for a tactical shield, comprising:
- a handle assembly configured to be mounted on a rear surface of the tactical shield;
- and
- a lighting enclosure configured to be mounted on a front surface of the tactical shield, the lighting enclosure including one or more light sources;
- wherein, in use, the handle assembly is secured to the lighting enclosure through the tactical shield by one or more fastener subsystems, each of the one or more fastener subsystems including
- a fastener post,
- a ballistic deflection cone mounted to a distal end of the fastener post, and
- a retaining spring positioned around an upper section of the fastener post and compressed between a flange section of the fastener post and the ballistic deflection cone;
- wherein the fastener post of each of the one or more fastener subsystems includes (a) a lower section that includes a threaded end, which is configured to engage the handle assembly, (b) a penultimate section that is configured to extend though the tactical shield and has a larger diameter than the lower section, (c) the flange section, which is configured to be positioned in front of the tactical shield, and (d) the upper section, which is configured to extend through the lighting enclosure and includes a threaded distal end for engaging the ballistic deflection cone.
A handle and lighting system for a tactical shield, comprising:
- a handle assembly configured to be mounted on a rear surface of the tactical shield, which includes a first attachment block at a first end and a second attachment block at a second end;
- a lighting enclosure configured to be mounted on a front surface of the tactical shield, the lighting enclosure including one or more light sources;
- wherein, in use, the handle assembly is secured to the lighting enclosure through the tactical shield by a first fastener subsystem and a second fastener subsystem;
- wherein the first fastener subsystem includes
- a first fastener post, which, in use, is inserted into and received by the first attachment block,
- a first ballistic deflection cone mounted to a distal end of the first fastener post, and
- a first retaining spring positioned around an upper section of the first fastener post and compressed between a flange section of the first fastener post and the first ballistic deflection cone,
- wherein the first fastener post includes (a) a lower section that includes a threaded end, which is configured to engage the handle assembly, (b) a penultimate section that is configured to extend though the tactical shield and has a larger diameter than the lower section, (c) the flange section, which is configured to be positioned in front of the tactical shield, and (d) the upper section, which is configured to extend through the lighting enclosure and includes a threaded distal end for engaging the ballistic deflection cone;
- and
- wherein the second fastener subsystem includes
- a second fastener post, which, in use, is inserted into and received by the second attachment block,
- a second ballistic deflection cone mounted to a distal end of the second fastener post, and
- a second retaining spring positioned around an upper section of the second fastener post and compressed between a flange section of the second fastener post and the second ballistic deflection cone,
- wherein the second fastener post includes (a) a lower section that includes a threaded end, which is configured to engage the handle assembly, (b) a penultimate section that is configured to extend though the tactical shield and has a larger diameter than the lower section, (c) the flange section, which is configured to be positioned in front of the tactical shield, and (d) the upper section, which is configured to extend through the lighting enclosure and includes a threaded distal end for engaging the ballistic deflection cone.
A handle and lighting system for a tactical shield, comprising:
- a handle assembly configured to be mounted on a rear surface of the tactical shield;
- and
- a lighting enclosure configured to be mounted on a front surface of the tactical shield, the lighting enclosure including one or more light sources;
- wherein, in use, the handle assembly is secured to the lighting enclosure through the tactical shield by one or more fastener subsystems, each of the one or more fastener subsystems including
- a fastener post extending through the tactical shield, including a lower section with a threaded end engaging the handle assembly, a flange section positioned in front of the shield, and an upper section extending through the lighting enclosure and including a threaded distal end,
- a ballistic deflection cone mounted to the distal end of the fastener post, and
- a retaining spring positioned around the fastener post and compressed between the flange section of the fastener post and the ballistic deflection cone.
