Description
- The present invention relates to a pyrotechnic thermal fuse, that is, a pellet consisting of a substance with well-defined auto-ignition temperature. The field of application for the invention relates to gas generators that inflate an airbag in a vehicle.
- Thermal fuses are used in the automotive industry in the gas generators used to inflate airbags in the event of a collision. The function of the thermal fuse is to prevent an explosion in the generator during a fire when all the powder within it could potentially heat up and ignite simultaneously with an instantaneous ignition as a result. The thermal fuse has a considerably lower auto-ignition temperature than the remaining substances in the generator, which causes the pellet to ignite before the remaining substances. This will result in a normal inflation of the airbag.
- The main requirement on a thermal fuse is stability during several tests to be able to guarantee functioning even after a long storage time. Furthermore it is required that a thermal fuse have a considerably lower auto-ignition temperature than the remaining substances in the gas generator to be able to function satisfactorily. Another requirement is that a thermal fuse survives storage at 140°C for six hours without igniting but without the requirement that it function after the test. A thermal fuse must even pass a Bonfire test to demonstrate functionality under realistic conditions in which a gas generator heats up during a fire.
- There are a number of previous and similar projects that claim to have a solution to the problem described above. However, none of them mention the requirement to survive 140°C for six hours. USA patent
5,084,118 describes how 5-aminotetrazole together with potassium or sodium chlorate and 2,4-dinitrophenylhydrazine provide spontaneous ignition at approximately 177°C. Chlorates are sensitive to moisture and can form hydrochloric acid in contact with water, which is why they should be avoided in environments where moisture can be found. - USA patent
5,380,380 describes how a hydrazine salt of 3-nitro-1,2,4-triazole-5-one (NTO) is mixed with various oxidizers to cause spontaneous ignition between 130-210°C. Nothing is mentioned about the stability of the compositions. - USA patent
5,866,842 describes a composition that ignites between 130-175°C. It consists of 3-nitro-1,2,4-triazole-5-one (NTO) together with among other ingredients potassium nitrate, ammonium nitrate and boron. - USA patent
US2001042577 describes how 3-nitro-1, 2, 4-triazole-5-one (NTO) together with for example guanidine nitrate and an oxidizer cause spontaneous ignition at temperatures from 150°C and upward. - USA patent
US20030145922 A1 discuses preferred organic gas-producing fuels for use in igniter compositions. Preferred organic gas-producing fuels contain nitrates of amine or urea derivate. - One main objective of the invention is to provide a pyrotechnic thermal fuse that fulfills all of the requirements on such a device. The pyrotechnic thermal fuse has a well-defined auto-ignition temperature plus good stability during storage at 107°C for 408 hours and survives six hours at 140°C without igniting.
- As claimed in the present invention, a pyrotechnic thermal fuse is made by mixing fuel with oxidizer together with a reducing agent in the form of a slag former in various compositions. These compositions show no sign of being hygroscopic, which can be positive if they should come into contact with moisture inside the gas generator. Some of the tested compositions will be described in a number of examples below.
- The main objective is fulfilled by the characteristics described in the patent claim.
- The present invention is intended for use for example in the gas generators used to inflate airbags in the event of a collision. The invention is placed in a gas generator together with the gas-generating substance found in the above-mentioned gas generators.
- The invention is a pyrotechnic thermal fuse composed of a number of compositions with well-defined auto-ignition temperatures. These auto-ignition temperatures should be considerably lower than the gas-generating substances in the gas generator in order to fulfill the purpose of the thermal fuse. The purpose is that the pyrotechnic thermal fuse should ignite the gas-generating substances in the gas generator during a fire and in that way create a controllable function to prevent a potential explosion. The pyrotechnic thermal fuse is compatible with several different gas-generating substances. These gas-generating substances have had auto-ignition temperature from 200°C and upward.
- The pyrotechnic thermal fuse produces a spontaneous ignition at a well-defined auto-ignition temperature between 150-180°C depending on the composition and it is thermally stable in the tests that have been conducted, 107°C for 408 hours and it survives six hours at 140°C without igniting. The pyrotechnic thermal fuse even survives a cycle test in the temperature range -40°C to 90°C.
- The pyrotechnic thermal fuse to which the invention applies can have different auto-ignition temperatures depending on the mixing proportions of the component parts. These components are Guanylurea nitrate and/or Guanylurea dinitramide in proportions of 5-50 percent by weight together with 3-nitro-1, 2, 4-triazol-5-one (NTO) in proportions of 5-50 percent by weight.
- These are then mixed with oxidizing agent taken from the nitrates, chlorates, perchlorates, permanganates and oxides of transition metals in the periodic table in proportions of 5-40 percent by weight. Additionally, one or more slag-forming substance from one of the groups in the periodic table including Boron or Zirconium in proportions of 0.5-10 percent by weight.
- Particularly favorable compositions of the pyrotechnic thermal fuse include 1. Guanylurea dinitramide 35 percent by weight
- NTO 40 percent by weight
- Boron 5 percent by weight or zirconium 10 percent by weight
- Potassium nitrate 20 percent by weight
- It is known that a hydrazine salt of NTO can be produced using a simple method and it is probable that this compound could be used as a substitute for NTO in the compositions belonging to the invention.
- A number of test compositions have been produced for this purpose by dry-blending the component parts and then sifting them through 100 mesh sized wire sieve. Pellets of 5 mm diameter have been pressed from the compositions and these have then been used to test auto-ignition temperatures. A pressure exponent has even been measured for Examples No. 1 and 2. The following abbreviations have been used for the tests:
- GuDN = Guanylurea dinitramide
- NTO = 3-nitro-1,2,4-triazol-5-one
- KClO4 = Potassium perchlorate
- KNO3 = Potassium nitrate
- B = Boron
- Zr = Zirconium
- A composition was prepared in accordance with the following formula where the percentage applies to percentage by weight:
- 35% GuDN
- 40% NTO
- 20% KN03
- 5% B
- Auto-ignition temperature TA was 155°C and after storage at 107°C for 408 hours TA was 155°C. The pressure exponent was 0.3.
- A composition was prepared in accordance with the following formula where the percentage applies to percentage by weight:
- 35% GuDN
- 35 % NTO
- 20% KNO3
- 10% Zr
- Auto-ignition temperature TA was 155°C and after storage at 107°C for 408 hours TA was 155°C. The pressure exponent was 0.35.
