Definitions
- the invention relates to a smoke nozzle according to the preamble of claim 1.
- Such a smoke missile is e.g. known from DE-OS 35 01 478.
- Fog missiles are used primarily for the self-protection of vehicles, especially battle tanks.
- the smoke towers are fired from throwing cups which are attached to the vehicle in order to generate fog at a distance from the vehicle to be protected with the help of an active charge and e.g. to change positions.
- the known smoke impact body consists of a housing which is closed on all sides and in which the active charge, e.g. a fog charge is recorded.
- a contact head is connected to the underside of the housing with several screws, in which an ignition charge for igniting the active charge is arranged.
- the ignition takes place electrically, whereby the ignition impulses are transmitted to the ignition charge via two contact rings on the outside of the contact head.
- the smoke projectile as cartridge ammunition which is inserted into the shot cup.
- This cartridge ammunition is fired with a firing pin, although electrical firing is also possible.
- the cartridge case of the smoke missile remains in it when the throwing body is ejected from the throwing cup.
- This cartridge ammunition has the advantage that when the active charge is expelled, the propellant gases no longer contaminate the inside of the shot cup and the electrical ignition pins present there, and that the Gas pressure generated by the propellant only acts between the active charge and the cartridge case, but not on the throwing cup. This only has to absorb the recoil forces due to the acceleration of the active body.
- the invention has for its object to modify the construction of a smoke nozzle so that the interchangeability of different elements and the reusability of materials is made easier.
- the contact head is simply attached to a central ring flange of the housing of the smoke nozzle, preferably by means of a thread, but other types of closures, e.g. Bayonet locks are possible.
- the smoke missile is designed as a cartridge ammunition, so that the actual active body in one Cartridge case is used, which in turn is inserted into the throw cup.
- the open top of the housing is closed with a screw or bayonet cover and can therefore easily be opened again.
- the smoke nozzle according to the invention therefore consists of only a few individual parts, namely preferably the cartridge case as the housing of the smoke nozzle, the expellable active body with the actual active charge, the contact head and the end cover.
- the active charge or the active body and also the contact head can be easily replaced, i.e. the elements that determine the maximum storage time of the smoke nozzle. After the storage period, these elements can be replaced by new elements.
- the active charge, possibly the active body and also the old contact head can then be prepared separately and simply and reused if necessary.
- the invention is illustrated in an exemplary embodiment with reference to the single figure, which shows a cross section through a smoke projectile designed as cartridge ammunition according to the invention.
- a mist launcher 1 has a cylindrical shell 2 which is open at the top and serves as a cartridge case, which has a flanged edge 2a on its top and into which an active body 3 with an active charge, not shown, is inserted as ammunition.
- the housing 2 is closed on its upper side with a screw cap 4, with pads 5 being provided between its underside and the throwing body 3, by means of which the active body is held firmly in the housing 2.
- a Gu Mikappe 6 is placed over the screw cap 4, which on the outer edge of the screw cap 4 with a snap lock is attached. Between the downward-facing edge of the rubber cap 6 encompassing the flanged edge and the wall of the housing 2 there remains a distance corresponding to the flanged edge 2a, into which the upper edge of the throwing cup engages when the mist launcher shown is inserted into the throwing cup for firing. The smoke nozzle is supported in the launch cup by the edge 2a.
- a central ring flange 7 is provided on the underside of the housing 2 and is provided with an internal thread.
- a pipe socket 8 of a contact head 9 is screwed into this internal thread, an igniter 10 with an electrical squib 11 being arranged in the socket 8.
- the nozzle is covered with a thin protective film 12.
- the connecting wires of the electrical squib 11 are connected to two contact rings 13 on the circumference of the contact head, which, when the mist launcher is inserted into the throwing cup, rest on contact pins (not shown here) in the throwing cup and transmit ignition pulses to the squib 11.
- the propellant gases of the primer act on the bottom of the active body 3, so that after a certain pressure has been exceeded, the screw cap 4 is flung together with the rubber cap 6 and the active body 3 is expelled from the housing 2.
- the contact head 8 and the active body 3 or its active charge can be exchanged without difficulty.
