Green energy mine defeat system

Abstract

A system of Fragmentation Protection is disclosed having additional synergistic shockwave protection and reaction characteristics. The methods include applications to vehicles, chassis, frames and robots where a shell, containment guard or barrier system is needed. Force Protection for IED/Mine events and other ballistic threats, fragmentation and shockwaves is established further allowing for synchronized mobility within those austere environments.

What is claimed is: 
     
         1 ) A shockwave and fragmentation protection device comprising:
 two or more blast resistant plates with space between said plates and at least one said plate having multiple openings;   said plate openings having internally aligned ducts suitably fashioned to deflect energy;   wherein said plates are connected at edges.   
     
     
         2 ) An energy absorbing recoil device comprising:
 a strut enclosure having two distinct internal control volumes separated by an internal boundary through which a strut piston extends through;   a valve controlling flow between said control volumes;   
     
     
         3 ) A modular energy conversion system comprising;
 a field replaceable housing;   a rechargeable battery system;   a heat transfer system using a working fluid and pipe system;   one or more of the following voltage producing devices of, thermal electric generators, energy producing turbine generator or photovoltaic cells;   one or more of the following reliquification methods, evaporator, condenser or microchannels;   one or more magnifier lens;   an automated sunlight shutter system; and   automated valves for flow restriction and pressure bypass.
