  • a pyrotechnic charge 18 formed by a detonating cutting cord.
  • This pyrotechnic charge is adapted to destroy at least partially the values contained in the container in the event of an attempt to violation of it.
  • This pyrotechnic charge is advantageously associated to means for projecting ink onto the values contained in the suitcase. These projection means are for example formed by tanks frangible wall ink.
  • the cord 18 is connected to a detonator 20 suitable for triggering of the pyrotechnic charge.
  • This detonator comprises a first part denoted 22, fixed on the lower half-shell 12 of the suitcase, and a second part noted 24, fixed on the cover 14 opposite the first part 22.
  • the first part 22 is electrically connected to a unit of control not shown, itself connected to detection sensors an attempt to break into the suitcase.
  • detection sensors are, for example, opening sensors or displacement sensors.
  • the first part 22 of the detonator comprises a containment box 26 in which is disposed a member 28 for initiating an electrically controllable pyrotechnic chain.
  • the housing 26 is produced by assembling two half-shells symmetrical denoted 26A, 26B, formed in metal blocks machined solid masses. This housing has outwardly substantially the shape of a parallelepiped rectangle.
  • a light 32 is provided opposite said member initiation 28. It leads to a face 30A of the notch 30.
  • the initiation member 28 has a shape which is substantially cylindrical and is arranged in an extended cylindrical conduit 34 by light 32.
  • the other end of the duct 34 is extended by an opening 35 intended for the passage of conductors from the control unit.
  • a flap 36 formed by a metal cube is mounted movable sliding in a blind conduit 38 of square section extending perpendicular to the axis of the initiating member 28.
  • the conduit 38 opens only on the second main face noted 30 B of the notch.
  • the conduits 34 and 38 extend perpendicular to each other.
  • the flap 36 In the direction perpendicular to the axis of the conduits 34 and 38, the flap 36 has a length slightly greater than the width of the notch 30.
  • the conduit 38 is interrupted at a distance D from the upper face of the detonator, so that the flap 36 is trapped in inside the duct 38.
  • the flap 36 is movable from a closed position of the light 32 (position shown in Figure 2) to a retracted position in the blind part of the conduit 38 in which the opening 32 is clear. In the closed position, the flap 36 is in contact with the face 30A from the notch.
  • a helical spring 40 is disposed in the conduit 38. It is kept bandaged between the bottom of the blind conduit and the flap 36 and requests this last towards its closed position.
  • the second part 24 of the detonator forms a pusher intended to actuate the flap 36 and more precisely to retract it inside of conduit 38.
  • the pusher 24 includes a bracket 42 for fixing on a side wall of the cover 14 of the suitcase. At the end of this square is fixed a V 44 profile intended to support part of the pyrotechnic charge 18.
  • a tube 46 of slightly larger internal diameter the outside diameter of the cord 18 is welded in the delimited angle by profile 44.
  • cord 18 passes right through the tube 46 and one end, denoted 48, cord 18 protrudes at one end of the tube 46.
  • the pusher 24 is fixed on the inner face of a side wall of the cover 14 while the body 22 of the detonator is attached to the pusher on the inside of the wall corresponding to the lower half-shell 12 of the suitcase.
  • the end 48 of the cutting cord occupies the place of the shutter 36 immediately opposite the light 32.
  • the end 48 is then aligned with the initiating member 28.
  • the initiation of the initiating organ 28 causes the ignition cutting cord 18 which then destroys the values contained inside of the suitcase.
  • the latter comprises means for opening the supply circuit of the initiating body of the pyrotechnic chain during unlocking of the suitcase.
  • the suitcase includes, for its locking, a motor-lock connected to a piloting device for locking control and unlocking the suitcase.
  • the keeper of the motor-lock is associated with a push button arranged on the circuit feeding the initiating organ. When the keeper is in the position of lock, this pushes the push button so that the power supply of the initiating organ is possible.
  • the push button is released, so that the feed circuit of the initiator is open.
  • FIG. 4 is shown, in perspective, a detonator according to the invention adapted to be implemented in a safe provided of a door.
  • the detonator is formed as previously of two massive half-shells machined and joined.
  • the containment box 50 thus formed has a light 52 aligned with an initiator 54 housed inside the confinement box.
  • a pyrotechnic initiation relay 56 is arranged between the member initiation 54 and light 52.
  • a shutter 58 similar to shutter 36, is formed by a metal bar displaceable in translation between a closed position light 52 (shown in Figure 4) and a retracted position releasing this light. Bar 58 is controlled by an actuator 60 formed by an electromagnet.
  • the actuator 60 is controlled by a control unit 62, itself connected to sensors 64 detecting the opening of the safe door.
  • This cord like the case of the detonator is fixed in the enclosure bounded by the safe. This enclosure is rated 68.
  • One end denoted 70 of this cord is arranged opposite of light 52. Sufficient space is maintained between light 52 and the end of the cord to allow the passage of the bar 58.
  • control unit 62 is programmed to control the flap 58 in order on the one hand to ensure its maintenance in its retracted position, when the access defined by the door to the enclosure is closed, and secondly to ensure the maintenance of the shutter in its closed position, when access to the enclosure is authorized.
  • flap 58 ensures confinement of the initiation member 54 and the pyrotechnic initiation relay 56 inside the housing 50 of so that any accidental release is safe.
  • the flap 58 is cleared so that the continuity of the pyrotechnic chain is again assured.
  • the activation of the initiating member 54 causes the ignition the pyrotechnic initiation relay 56 which in turn ensures tripping cutting line 66.
  • the pyrotechnic initiation relay 56 ensures the transfer of flame from the inside of the case to the end 70 of the cord. In particular, it allows the passage of the flame through the space provided for the passage of the flap 58.
  • a detonator as described here can be installed in any enclosure with an opening.
  • it can be installed in a room or a work room. In this case, access is closed by a door. The initiating organ is then confined according to the state of opening of the door, to prohibit the triggering of the pyrotechnic chain when the door is open.
  • Such a detonator can be installed in a cabinet in which a set of keys or keys is stored e-cards.
