Abstract:
The present invention is directed to a bendable projectile having a forebody unit, a rearbody unit and an articulating joint unit connecting the two units. The articulating joint unit is composed of a spherical shape body, a receiving socket and a sphere-gear assembly. The spherical shape body is fitted into the receiving socket whereby movement of the spherical shape body about the receiving socket is permitted without release of the spherical shape body from the socket. Movement of the spherical shape body inside the receiving socket is effectuated by the sphere gear assembly. The sphere-gear assembly engages the concentric grooves along the surface of the spherical shape body or the concave surface of the receiving socket. Such sphere-gear assembly is comprised of electric board, powersource, powertrain, guidance control system and gears having teeth and grooves that complement the plurality of concentric grooves on the spherical shape body.
