Abstract
A breaching device (100) includes an elongated main body (4) that forms an outer surface (2) and has a front end (24). The elongated main body (4) divides along a length and forms substantially equal upper (20) and lower (22) portions. A first curved handle (6) is attached to the outer surface (2) and extends a first height (21) over a portion of the upper portion (20). A partition (10) is attached to the outer surface (2) between the first curved handle (6) and the front end (24), and extends a second height (15) over the upper portion (20) and generally transverse to the length of the elongated main body (4). The second height (15) is greater than the first height (21).
Claims20
A breaching device, comprising:
- an elongated main body forming an outer surface and having a front end;
- wherein the elongated main body divides along a length forming substantially equal upper and lower portions of the outer surface;
- a first curved handle attached to the outer surface and extends a first height over a portion of the upper portion of the outer surface;
- and;
- a partition attached to the outer surface between the first curved handle and the front end, and extends a second height over the upper portion of the outer surface and generally transverse to the length of the elongated main body, wherein the second height is greater than the first height.

(canceled)
A breaching device, comprising:
- an elongated main body having an outer surface and a front end;
- a curved handle having a grip region and attached to the outer surface and;
- a curved partition disposed on the outer surface, wherein the curved partition is positioned with respect to the curved handle to substantially eclipse the view of the grip region when viewed directly along the length of the elongated main body from the front end.
A method of breaching a barrier, comprising:
- providing a breaching device made from an elongated main body with a front end and having an outer surface, a curved handle attached to the outer surface and having a grip region, and a curved partition attached to the outer surface between the curved handle and the front end, and the curved partition substantially eclipses the grip region when viewed directly along the length of the elongated main body from the front end;
- swinging the front end of the breaching device in a motion along an arc toward a breach point of a barrier, wherein the center of the arc is generally disposed at a point adjacent to a wall;
- penetrating the barrier at the breach point using the front end;
- impacting the curved partition on a surface adjacent to the barrier;
- and
- stopping the motion of the breaching device on the impact of the curved partition with the surface adjacent to the barrier.
