Abstract

It is proposed to introduce an irritation body ( 1 ) into a crowd of persons, which is applied in a sequence of highly-accelerated rolling movements in random directions on the ground by means of integrated impulse drive mechanisms ( 2 ). The body ( 1 ) comprises a cylindrical shape, or, preferably a spherical shape. In addition, the irritation body ( 1 ) comprises control electronics ( 3 ) for igniting the impulse drive mechanism ( 2 ), along with a current supply unit ( 4 ). The current supply unit ( 4 ) can be supplied with electrical energy over a charging module ( 7 ) leading to the outside by means of a programming and/or charging device ( 5 ), directly before application of the body ( 1 ). An onsite programming of the control electronic ( 3 ) is also possible by means of the program module ( 6 ) and the programming and/or charging device ( 5 ).

Claims

exact text as granted — not AI-modified
1 . An irritation body having a circumference, comprising: 
 a plurality of integrated impulse drive mechanisms distributed along the circumference of the irritation body;    a current supply unit operably connected to the integrated impulse drive mechanisms;    control electronics, operably connected to the current supply unit and the integrated impulse drive mechanisms to set the irritation body in an accelerated rolling movement in a plurality of directions when triggered.    
   
   
       2 . Irritation body according to  claim 1 , wherein the irritation body has a substantially spherical shape.  
   
   
       3 . Irritation body according to  claim 1 , wherein the irritation body has a substantially cylindrical shape.  
   
   
       4 . Irritation body according to  claim 1 , wherein said control electronics further comprises means for programming a temporal ignition sequence of the impulse drives.  
   
   
       5 . Irritation body according to  claim 4 , wherein the impulse drive mechanisms are integrated in the body in a substantially regular distribution.  
   
   
       6 . Irritation body according to  claim 4 , wherein the impulse drive mechanisms are integrated in the body in a substantially random distribution.  
   
   
       7 . Irritation body according to  claim 1 , wherein the current supply unit comprises a battery.  
   
   
       8 . Irritation body according to  claim 1 , wherein the current supply unit comprises a capacitative energy storage device.  
   
   
       9 . Irritation body according to  claim 7 , further comprising: 
 a charging and/or programming module leading to the outside of the body and operatively connected to the current supply unit to supply electrical energy to current supply unit and/or program instructions to the control electronics; and    a program and/or charging device operably connectable to the charging module to supply the irritation body with program instructions and/or electrical energy.    
   
   
       10 . Irritation body according to  claim 8 , further comprising: 
 a charging and/or programming module leading to the outside of the body and operatively connected to the current supply unit to supply electrical energy to current supply unit and/or program instructions to the control electronics; and    a program and/or charging device operably connectable to the charging module to supply the irritation body with program instructions and/or electrical energy.    
   
   
       11 . Irritation body according to  claim 8 , wherein on-site programming of the control electronics is effectable with the program module and the program and/or charging device.  
   
   
       12 . Irritation body according to  claim 9 , wherein on-site programming of the control electronics is effectable with the program module and the program and/or charging device.  
   
   
       13 . Irritation body according to  claim 1 , further comprising a brake system.  
   
   
       14 . Irritation body according to  claim 1 , further comprising not round or unround surfaces.  
   
   
       15 . Irritation body according to  claim 1 , further comprising one or more modules of soft material, applied to a surface of the irritation body.
