Abstract:
1. An underwater electrocution device for use by a diver, the underwater electrocution device comprising: a frame in the form of a hand-held weapon, the frame defining an ejection tube which extends along a longitudinal axis thereof; a watertight compartment within the frame, the longitudinal axis of the ejection tube extending within the frame so as to be laterally spaced completely above the watertight compartment; a motor sealed within the watertight compartment that is activatable by the diver; an electric generator turned upon activation of the motor within the watertight compartment, the electric generator comprising a terminal and a ground plate for electrical output, wherein the ground plate is connected so as to be in contact with water external to the watertight compartment and thus to form an electrical ground for the electric generator when the frame is underwater; a power supply device connected to provide power to the motor; a spear tip contained within the ejection tube, the spear tip defined by a leading end that is pointed and a trailing end, the spear tip being made of an electrically conducting metal; an ejection mechanism adapted to eject the spear tip from the frame through the ejection tube when activated; a cover over the spear tip that electrically insulates the spear tip, the cover made of a frangible material that breaks upon impact; and a wire that is electrically conducting, the wire attached to the trailing end of the spear tip so as to electrically connect the spear tip to the terminal of the electric generator.
