  2. Blowgun - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Blowgun

    It is a 10-metre (33 ft) target shooting, using a standardized length 120 cm or 48 inch, and barrel caliber, dart shape, length and weight are free. In each round the shooter shoots 5 darts and there are 6 rounds per game, for a total of 30 darts. The target faces are 7 (6 cm), 5 (12 cm), 3 (18 cm) points.

  3. Tubes and primers for ammunition - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tubes_and_primers_for...

    The explosion blows a small ball upwards and blocks the coned hole at the top of the tube and so prevents any rush of gas. [ 3 ] To provide a higher rate of fire, the last pull-lanyard friction T tubes in British service were replaced from 1907 in the converted 15pdr with a 'push' T tube, using an impact detonating compound, in a new axial vent.

  4. Fukiya - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fukiya

    The range of a fukiya is determined by size (diameter), weight, length and material of its basic component, the tube. Pressure built up in the tube from the player's breath and the technique that the player uses to channel the breath into the tube affects the speed that the dart will exit the muzzle.

  5. Torque tube - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Torque_tube

    The torque tube design is typically heavier and securely ties the rear end together, thus providing a rigid rear end and assuring good alignment under all conditions. However, because of the greater unsprung weight of the torque tube and radius rods, there may be a "little hopping around of the rear end when cornering fast or on washboard roads ...

  6. BGM-71 TOW - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/BGM-71_TOW

    The BGM-71 TOW ("Tube-launched, Optically tracked, Wire-guided", pronounced / ˈ t oʊ /) [9] is an American anti-tank missile. TOW replaced much smaller missiles like the SS.10 and ENTAC , offering roughly twice the effective range, a more powerful warhead, and a greatly improved semi-automatic command to line of sight (SACLOS) that could also ...

  7. Dart gun - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dart_gun

    A dart gun is an air rifle that fires a dart. [1] The dart is tipped with a hypodermic needle and filled with a sedative , [ 2 ] vaccine [ 3 ] or antibiotic . [ 4 ] A dart gun containing a sedative is called a tranquillizer gun ( also spelled tranquilizer gun , tranquilliser gun or tranquiliser gun ), derived from the word "tranquil", which ...

  8. Voltage-regulator tube - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Voltage-regulator_tube

    In most cases, this can be easily filtered out by placing a small capacitor in parallel with the VR tube or using an RC decoupling network downstream of the VR tube. Too large a capacitance (>0.1 μF for an 0D3, for instance), however, and the circuit will form a relaxation oscillator , definitely ruining the voltage regulation and possibly ...

  9. Expansion tube - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Expansion_tube

    An expansion tube is a type of impulse facility that is conceptually similar to a shock tube with a secondary diaphragm, an expansion section, a test section, and a dump tank where the endwall would be located in a shock tube. [1]
