Definitions

  • the invention relates to a flat sealing element according to the preamble of patent claim 1.
  • the gas pressure receiving surface of the sabot has a flat sealing element made of an elastic material which is firmly connected to it, in order to block the propellant gases from passing through the butt joints between the sabot segments. This can lead to difficulties in detaching the segments from the flight floor.
  • the known sealing element forms a disturbing dead load component.
  • the invention has for its object to provide a sealant, which ensures an undisturbed detachment of the sabot segments from the missile and through which the dead load can be reduced.
  • a sabot 10 of a sub-caliber flight projectile 20 has on its gas pressure receiving surface 12 a flat sealing element 14 made of an elastic material, which seals butt joints 22 between segments 16, 18 and 24 of the sabot 10 for propellant gases.
  • the gas pressure receiving surface 52 of the sabot 50 is provided with a sealing element 54, which consists of a foaming agent film.
  • the rate of erosion of the film material can - if necessary by phlegmatization in the butt joints 22 between the segments 56 and 58 - rest areas - to ensure a reliable sealing effect during the passage of the bullet through a gun barrel and not to impede the detachment of the segments from the missile 40.
  • a different portion 62, 64 and 66 of a propellant charge is firmly connected to the film in order to take advantage of the advantages that result from an - at least partially - co-accelerated propellant charge.

Claims (2)

1. Garniture d'étanchéité en nappe (54) destinée à garnir la surface (52) à laquelle est appliquée la pression gazeuse d'un sabot segmenté (50) comportant au moins une bande d'étanchéité ou de guidage située à la périphérie extérieure, pouvant être déchirée pour détacher les segments (56, 58) d'un projectile (40) sous-calibré, caractérisée en ce que la garniture d'étanchéité (54) est réalisée sous la forme d'une pellicule de matière de charge propulsive et est placée au moins dans des zones d'interstices de jonction (22) qui s'étendent entre les segments (56, 58) du sabot (50).
2. Moyen d'étanchéité selon la revendication 1, caractérisée en ce qu'une fraction (62 ; 64 ; 66) pouvant être prédéterminée d'une charge, propulsive est liée rigidement à la garniture d'étanchéité (54).
