Definitions
- the present invention relates to devices for storing and handling propellant powders and in particular the hoppers and containers of such powders.
- the ignition takes place at the bottom of the hopper; it is caused, during the flow of the powder, by the rubbing of the particles against each other, which causes occasional heating and electrostatic effects, as well as by friction at the level of the valves or locks.
- the critical height above which any ignition causes at least a deflagration was of the order of 0.2 to 0.3 meters, this when the test is carried out in a tube 200 millimeters in diameter. Furthermore, the critical height above which any ignition causes a detonation is of the order from 0.7 to 0.8 meters, under the same test conditions as above.
- Hoppers are known, the walls of which are made with an expanded metal skeleton envelope, of wire mesh or of plastic material, internally covered with a canvas of stainless metal wire whose mesh dimensions are smaller than the grain dimensions. of the powder used.
- Such hoppers are described, for example, in French patent 2,076,714.
- any excess pressure is released through the meshes of the fabric and the height of powder in the hopper can be greater than the height of the deflagration.
- the present invention aims to remedy the aforementioned drawbacks by creating storage or handling devices for propellant powders comprising a loading opening such as hoppers or containers capable of containing quantities of powder, greater than the critical volume while ensuring excellent safety of use and being of inexpensive construction.
- a device according to the invention is characterized in that it comprises a lateral vent comprising means for preventing the powder from coming out through this vent, and in that an area of the lateral wall of the device, located substantially between the vent and the loading opening is made of a destructible material under the combined effects of the pressure applied by the powder and the flames generated outside the device near this zone.
- the vent opens to the outside in an opening directed upwards, and located in a substantially horizontal plane and this vent is located in the lower part of the device.
- vent prevents the powder from leaving the device because of the natural slope taken by the external surface of the powder when the latter is loaded.
- the orientation of its opening is such that very rapid destruction of the area between said vent and the upper part of the device is obtained, under the effect of the flames exiting through the vent in the event of taking powder fire.
- the distance between the plane of the opening of the vent and the plane of the flow opening of the hopper is less than or equal to the critical height of deflagration of the powder. This avoids any possibility of deflagration due to the loading height of the powder between the two aforementioned openings.
- the destructible zone between the vent and the upper part of the device is made of a combustible material.
- the flames escaping through the vent cause the combustion of said zone of combustible material. This combustion very quickly destroys this area, so that the powder charge is immediately evacuated through the opening created in the side wall of the device.
- the hopper 1 substantially in the shape of a pyramid trunk, containing a propellant powder 2, is supported by four vertical uprights 3.
- This hopper 1 has an upper loading opening 4 and a lower orifice 5 d flow of the powder 2 which, in the example shown, is closed by a plate 6.
- This plate 6 is removably mounted to the narrowed lower part 7 of the hopper 1 by conventional means not shown.
- the total height of the hopper 1 is clearly greater than the critical heights of deflagration and detonation of the propellant powder 2 used.
- the side wall of the hopper 1 is constituted by four rectangular upper plates 8, for example made of sheet steel, to which are fixed four side panels 9, 10, 11, 12, substantially trapezoidal.
- the side wall of the hopper 1 comprises a vent 13 and a zone constituted by the panel 12 which extends between the vent 13 and the adjacent upper plate 8, is made of a combustible material, such as 'a strong cotton canvas.
- a combustible material such as 'a strong cotton canvas.
- the cotton canvas panel 12 has sufficient strength to support the powder charge 2 contained in the hopper 1.
- This canvas panel 12 can be reinforced externally by a metal mesh fixed to the adjacent panels 9 and 10, or by crosspieces 14 , as shown in Figure 2.
- the side panels 9, 10 and 11 are produced, unlike the panel 12, in a non-combustible material such as sheet steel.
- vent 13 opens to the outside through an opening 13a directed upwards and located in a plane P substantially horizontal. This arrangement prevents the powder 2 from leaving through the vent 13, due to the natural slope of the surface 15 of the powder 2 (see FIG. 2) taken by the latter when it is loaded into the hopper 1.
- the vent 13 is located in the vicinity of the narrowed lower portion 7 of the hopper 1, the distance d between the plane P of the opening 13a of the vent and the plane of l 5 flow port preferably being less than or equal to the critical height of deflagration of the powder.
- the opening 13a of the vent 13 is adjacent to the lower edge of the canvas panel 12 and extends over the entire width of the aforementioned edge.
- the flames generated by the combustion of the powder in the vicinity of the flow orifice 5 escape through the vent 13, immediately after setting on fire. Since this vent 13 is adjacent to the panel 12 of cotton canvas, the latter is immediately ignited by the flames which escape from the vent 13, which causes the rapid destruction of the panel 12. In this regard, the fact that the wall 16, located under the vent 13, is substantially parallel to the panel 12, ensures that the flames are directed towards this panel 12.
- the powder load 2 empties from the hopper through the opening created by the destruction of the panel 12. This powder 2 released from the hopper 2 thus causes a fire limited to the angular sector located opposite the panel 12.
- This system is held integral with the wall 32 by metal fasteners 311 and 312.
- the flames destroy the combustible fabric 34 and ignite the area 36 which is destroyed by combustion of the panel 310 and the fabric 37 and by tearing of the structure 39 and the grid 38 under the effect of the heat and the pressure created by the combustion of the powder.
- the latter pours by burning through the orifice created by the destruction of the zone 36 and is thus channeled in one direction without risk of deflagration or detonation of the container, the combustion of the powder taking place at the open air.
- the invention has been tested on a substantially corresponding hopper to that shown in FIGS. 1 and 2.
- This hopper was loaded with 725 kg of powder whose critical height of deflagration is between 0.2 and 0.3 meters and the critical height of detonation is between 0.7 and 0.8 meter.
- the total height of powder in the hopper was of the order of 1.4 meters, ie almost twice the critical detonation height and almost five times the critical deflagration height.
- the wall 12 of the hopper was made of cotton canvas of the same type as that used for the bags of black powder.
- the powder was ignited at the sealing orifice by a pyrotechnic ignition composition.
- the hopper powder ignited approximately one second after ignition.
- the burning of the powder lasted three to four seconds.
- the hopper according to the invention therefore provides considerably improved safety in use compared with known embodiments, given not only that it eliminates the risks of detonation or deflagration by limiting them to a simple fire, but that it also makes it possible to locate such a fire in a predetermined, non-dangerous sector, contiguous to the hopper.
- Figures 3 and 4 show a frustoconical hopper 20.
- the side wall 21 of the hopper 20 includes a vent lateral 22 which opens to the outside via an opening 23, in the form of a crescent, situated in a substantially horizontal plane.
- the side wall 21 further comprises a portion 24 made of a combustible material such as canvas. This combustible portion 24 extends over a fraction of the periphery of the hopper 20, between the opening 23 and the cylindrical upper part 25 of the hopper 20.
- the technical effects of the hopper 20 are identical to those of the hopper 1 shown in FIGS. 1 and 2.
- the panel 12 of the hopper 1 and the portion 24 of the side wall 21 of the hopper 20 can be made of any other material, as quickly combustible as cotton canvas, provided that this material has sufficient strength to support the load of powder.
- this material has sufficient strength to support the load of powder.
- cardboard or a sheet of wood or relatively combustible plastic are examples of any other material, as quickly combustible as cotton canvas, provided that this material has sufficient strength to support the load of powder.
- this material is combustible. Indeed, it is sufficient that the latter is destructible, that is to say can be torn in contact with the flames leaving the vent 13 or 22. Thus, one can use a sheet of thermoplastic material which, in contact with the flames, softens then tears to release the mass of powder.
- the opening 13a or 23 of the vent 13 or 22 may not be located in a horizontal plane, provided that other means are provided to prevent the powder from leaving. These means could be constituted by a mesh screen sufficiently tight to retain the powder, while being loose enough not to obstruct the exit of the flames.
