Patent attributes
The present invention relates to a breaching device which may be used to gain access to a door, window, or other structure. More specifically, the present invention is a breaching device including a fixed breaching structure and a moving breaching structure to provide torque and angle forces on the structure to be breached. The fixed breaching structure includes a first fixed blade set arranged to remain in a fixed position while a first moving blade of the moving breaching structure is actuated to open a first gap. Then, if necessary, a second fixed blade set and a second moving blade of the device are used to complete the separation of the door from its frame. The second blade set may be used to complete the breach of the structure or may be designed as a multi-purpose tool to use on a different structure. The first fixed blades are relatively shorter than the second fixed blades. The first moving blade is shorter than the second moving blade.
