US Patent 11835326 Igniter with a delay time that can be set

The invention relates to an igniter with a delay time (Vz) that can be set. The delay time (Vz) can be fixedly defined, or individually and situation-dependently set on-site. In particular, the invention relates to a delay time that can be set for a stun grenade, a hand grenade etc., with options for the individual setting and situation-dependent or situation-contingent customisation of the delay time (Vz), and consequently of the effect of the active compositions in-situ. In order to achieve individual setting options, the invention proposes that at least two different delay times (Vz) can be set. To this end, the igniter has, in a delay section, preferably in the fuse head, a relief bore that can be closed or opened.
