Definitions
- the technical field of the invention is that of devices ensuring the deconfinement of an envelope of ammunition containing an explosive charge.
- Deconfining devices make it possible to avoid detonation of a shell as a result of a warm-up example during a fire.
- Patent DE2131748 thus describes a closure cap of a shell body that is put in place when the shell is stored.
- This cap has a closure plate which is connected by a fusible material. The temperature rise releases the plate which allows the evacuation of gases.
- the warm-up can lead to initiation of the loading itself as a result of the increase of pressure, only at the initiation of the rocket which also causes the detonation of the load explosive.
- the object of the invention is to propose a device for deconfinement allowing for a simple way of ensuring a protection against accidental initiations as well due to the heating of the rocket rather than the loading explosive itself.
- the deconfining device according to the invention allows also to provide protection when the rocket is not mounted on the ammunition.
- the subject of the invention is a device for deconfinement of an envelope of a munition containing a explosive charge that may be initiated by a rocket priming device comprising at least one vent unstoppable to connect the explosive charge to the open air, device which is characterized in that the vent leads into a chamber located between the rocket and the explosive charge.
- the vent is carried by a connecting ring ensuring the connection of the casing and the priming rocket, ring delimiting the internal chamber inside which opens the vent, the chamber being closed on the side of the explosive charge by a bottom forming a projectable plate on the explosive charge during the initiation of the rocket.
- the bottom may include at least one circular groove ensuring a decrease in its thickness, and in a way preferred, at least two concentric circular grooves.
- the connecting ring can carry a thread allowing its connection to the casing and a tapping authorizing the fixation of the rocket.
- the vent may be closed with a silicone stopper.
- a munition 1 comprises an envelope 2 enclosing an explosive charge 3 which is bootable through a hole 2a of the envelope.
- the explosive charge 3 can be initiated by a rocket 4 which is secured to the envelope 2 of the munition by a connecting ring 5.
- the means of solidarization may for example include a tapping internal ring 5 cooperating with threads of the envelope 2 and the rocket.
- the firing rocket 4 is not shown in detail. Such components are conventional and well known to humans of career.
- the deconfining device comprises at least one vent 6 solidarityobturable (here four vents regularly distributed angularly).
- the vents are arranged through the ring 5 and thus communicate with the outside an inner chamber 7 delimited by the ring 5.
- Each vent 6 is closed by a plug 8 of a material which makes it possible to seal (for example silicone).
- This cap is made with a slightly conical shape and it is placed in the vent by elastic deformation.
- vents 6 open to the interior of the ammunition 1 in room 7 between the rocket 4 and the explosive charge 3.
- This tensionobturation intervenes indifferently if the increase in pressure results from a deterioration of the rocket 4 or if it is caused by the degradation of the explosive charge 3 itself.
- FIG. 2 shows another embodiment of the invention
- the ammunition 1 is an artillery shell.
- the rocket 4 is screwed onto a connecting ring 5 which has an external thread 5a allowing its fixing by screwing on the envelope 2 of the shell.
- Ring 5 has also a tapping 5b for receiving the rocket 4.
- the ring 5 delimits an internal chamber 7 which is partly occupied by a detonation relay 9 integral with the rocket 4.
- This chamber 7 is closed on the explosive loading side 3 by a bottom 10 forming a projectable plate on the load explosive during the initiation of the rocket 4.
- the bottom 10 has two concentric circular grooves 11a and 11b which are more particularly visible on the figure 3.
- the ring 5 is made of steel.
- the thickness of the ring at the bottom 10 is about 1 mm.
- the initiation of the rocket 4 causes a cut of the bottom 10 at the level of the gorge 11a whose diameter is close to that of relay 9.
- Such a closed connection ring constitutes the object EP977005.
- the two grooves 11a and 11b allow the device to work perfectly even with variations in the radial and longitudinal positions of firing the rocket.
- the ring 5 also carries vents 6 closed by silicone plugs 8. These vents allow to connect the room 7 outside the ammunition.
- vents 6 do not disturb the normal operation of the ammunition. Indeed the kinetics of the detonation of rocket 4 and its relay is much more faster than that of the decomposition of the relay that would be due at a temperature rise.
- the thermal decomposition of relay 4 simply causes the ejection of the plugs 8, the deconfinement of the chamber 7 thus preventing the subsequent detonation of the relay as a result of an elevation pressure in the room.
- the deconfining device allows to ensure in a simple and reliable way the protection ammunition with a firing rocket.
- vents another material than a silicone plug, by example a fusible material with a given elevation of the temperature (such as a eutectic alloy).
