Definitions
- the invention relates to a firing from a portable, recoilless gun ammunition body with a bullet casing, in which a luminous body, connected to the luminous body parachute and an igniter for activating a discharge charge for ejecting the filament and the parachute are arranged on a target area of the projectile shell.
- the detonator for activating the ejection charge is usually located in the firing direction, in the front sleeve section of the projectile shell.
- the parachute used to reduce the falling speed of the luminous body is arranged in the rear-side section of the projectile shell.
- the invention is therefore based on the object of disclosing a firing from a portable, recoilless gun ammunition body, without thereby affecting the ejection and deployment process of the parachute after activation of the ejection charge.
- the invention is essentially based on the idea of arranging the parachute, viewed in the direction of firing, within a front sleeve section which, upon activation of the ejection charge, deflects from the adjoining section of the projectile shell. is separable.
- an air brake is fixed on the circumference, which unfolds when ejecting the luminous body from the projectile casing and brakes it relative to the front sleeve section, so that the parachute is pulled out of the luminous body from the front sleeve section on the rear side.
- the detonator for activating the ejection charge is arranged at the rear of the projectile shell.
- the air brake is a plurality of blades of spring steel distributed uniformly over the circumference of the luminous element.
- the front Hüisenabites is formed ogivenförmig and therefore has a relatively large space for the accommodation of the parachute.
- FIG. 1 shows the longitudinal section through a Leuchtmunungsskör- inventive with a lamp housing located in a projectile body and
- Fig. 1, 1 denotes a light ammunition body, which adjoins the front side of an unillustrated drive part of a firing from a karoka ammunition.
- the illuminated ammunition body 1 comprises a projectile casing 2 in which a luminous element 3 (with flare), a parachute 5 connected to the luminous element 3 via cables 4 and a time fuse 6 for activating an ejection charge 7 are arranged.
- the time fuse 6, viewed in the weft direction, is arranged within a rear-side section of the projectile casing 2.
- the parachute 5 is disposed within an ogive-shaped, front sleeve portion 8 of the projectile sleeve 2, wherein the connecting portion between the front Sleeve section 8 and the rear side adjoining this section of the Geschoßhüise 2 is provided with predetermined breaking points 9.
- an air brake 10 is fixed on the circumference, which consists of several, uniformly distributed over the circumference of the filament 3 arranged, prestressed fins 11 made of spring steel.
- the lamellae 11 are each fastened with their rear end to the luminous element 3 and are supported by their front end against the inner wall of the projectile casing 2.
