Abstract
Artillery grenade holsters are configured to releasably retain one or more artillery grenades. One or more retaining tabs are configured to define a receptacle space for receiving an artillery grenade. The retaining tab(s) flex outwardly during grenade extraction to allow release of the artillery grenade, after which the retaining tab(s) flex back to their original positions. A secondary retaining element links two or more retaining tabs to prevent inadvertent outward flexing. An artillery grenade holster includes a securing cap fixedly attached, by a retention cable, to a back support and releasably attached, by the retention cable, to a securing element of a front support.
Claims20
A holster configured in size and shape for releasably retaining an artillery grenade, the holster comprising:
- a back support comprising an upper end, a lower end, a first side end, and a second side end;
- a bottom support disposed proximate the lower end of the back support and extending from the back support a distance in a distal direction;
- a first retaining tab disposed proximate the first side end of the back support and extending from the back support a distance in a distal direction to a first retaining tab terminal;
- and
- a second retaining tab disposed proximate the second side end of the back support and extending from the back support a distance in a distal direction to a second retaining tab terminal, the second retaining tab terminal being proximate to the first retaining tab terminal;
- wherein the area between the first retaining tab, the second retaining tab, the back support, and the bottom support defines a receptacle space.
A holster configured in size and shape for releasably retaining an artillery grenade, the holster comprising:
- a receptacle space for receiving an artillery grenade, the receptacle space bounded by a back support and a bottom support attached to the back support;
- a securing cap configured to selectively enclose the receptacle space to retain an artillery grenade within the receptacle space;
- a stretchable retention cable joining the securing cap to at least one of the back support or bottom support;
- and
- a securing cap manipulation element joined to the stretchable retention cable and configured as a graspable structure that enables orientation of the securing cap with respect to one or more of the back support or bottom support.
A holster configured in size and shape for releasably retaining an artillery grenade, the holster comprising:
- a back support comprising a back upper end, a back lower end, a first back side end, and a second back side end;
- a bottom support disposed proximate the back lower end of the back support and extending from the back support a distance in a distal direction;
- a front support disposed proximate the bottom support and opposite the back support, the front support comprising a front upper end, a front lower end, a first front side end, and a second front side end;
- and
- a securing cap positioned substantially opposite the bottom support, the securing cap being moveable from an open configuration to a closed configuration in engagement with the front support;
- wherein the area between the back support, the bottom support, and the front support defines a receptacle space that is sized and shaped to receive and securely hold an artillery grenade;
- and
- wherein the securing cap is configured to secure the artillery grenade within the receptacle space when positioned in the closed configuration in engagement with the front support.
