Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a device for launching a projectile by compressed fluid as for example described in the document US2004 / 0173197 A .
  • the invention applies in particular in the spatial field.
  • the number of space debris, larger or smaller, is constantly increasing.
  • the increase in space debris increases the risk of collisions between satellites and / or with a space station.
  • Some debris is considered critical because of its size and / or its positioning on areas called risk areas, such as a useful orbit.
  • a useful orbit such as a useful orbit.
  • One example is a lost satellite, rocket stages, which can be positioned in a useful orbit.
  • the deorbitation of such debris becomes urgent to remove them from the useful orbit. This raises the question of how to remove these debris to clean up the space in an efficient and safe way. Indeed, it is necessary to provide equipment and reliable maneuvers to remove debris under penalty of generating unwanted collisions and thus more debris.
  • the link between the harpoon and the target object ie debris
  • the link between the harpoon and the target object can create disturbances to the harpoon trajectory during the unwinding of the cable.
  • the cable can also tangle when stored.
  • the invention aims to overcome all or part of the problems mentioned above by providing a device for launching a projectile by compressed fluid allowing the projectile to maintain its trajectory along its line of sight, the projectile being linked through a connecting device not generating disturbances on the trajectory of the projectile.
  • the end of the first blade is linked to the projectile by a connecting element, and the connecting element is a mechanical component allowing the projectile to rotate about the X axis.
  • the invention is described in the context of use in the spatial field. Nevertheless, it also finds application in the Earth's atmosphere, for example on a ship in order to recover debris in the water or floating on the surface of the water or on the land floor in order to tow an object.
  • the invention finds application in all cases where a first object is linked to a second object.
  • the figure 1 represents a sectional diagram in an XY plane of a first embodiment of a projectile launch device 11 and a gun 18, as well as a sectional view of a section of the projectile 11 in a YZ plane perpendicular to the XY plane.
  • the projectile 11 extends along an axis X between two ends 12, 13.
  • the projectile 11 is intended to be positioned in the barrel 18 of substantially cylindrical shape of axis X.
  • the projectile 11 comprises a hollow portion 14 at its center s opening on a first 12 of the two ends of the projectile 11, for receiving a compressed fluid.
  • the projectile 11 comprises a plurality of vents 15 passing through the projectile 11 from the hollow portion 14 substantially perpendicular to the axis X and with a substantially radial outlet intended to expel the compressed fluid substantially tangentially to the projectile 11.
  • the compressed fluid may be a compressed gas.
  • the compressed fluid enters the projectile 11 through the hollow portion 14 and extends tangentially to the section of the projectile 11 through the vents 15.
  • the output of the fluid compressed tangentially to the section of the projectile 11 through the vents 15 creates a torque on the projectile which turns it on itself. In other words, the projectile 11 is rotated on itself, around the axis X.
  • the compressed fluid Upon entering the projectile 11, the compressed fluid causes an increase in the pressure in the projectile. This increase in pressure generates a translation of the projectile along the axis X, which allows projection of the projectile 11. At the same time, the pressure of the fluid and the flow of the fluid in the vents generate a rotation of the projectile on it -even.
  • the hollow portion 14 and the vents 15 of the projectile 11 allow both a translational movement along the X axis and a rotational movement about the X axis of the projectile 11. cut in the YZ plane of the figure 1 the projectile 11 comprises 3 vents. For a good rotation of the projectile 11, it takes at least two vents, but it is also possible to have three or more.
  • the projectile 11 comprises a head 16 and a body 17.
  • the head 16 of the projectile 11 extends from a second 13 of the two ends of the projectile 11 to the plurality of vents 15.
  • the body 17 of the projectile 11 extends from the plurality of vents 15 to the first end 12 of the projectile 11.
  • the barrel 18 has two ends 19, 20, in which the projectile 11 is positioned, a first 19 of the two ends of the barrel 18 allowing the entry of the compressed fluid into the barrel 18, a second 20 of the two ends allowing the exit of the projectile 11.
  • the device 10 for rotating the projectile 11 comprises a reservoir 21 of compressed fluid connected to the first end 19 of the barrel 18 in which the projectile 11 is located, so as to feed the projectile 11 compressed fluid.
  • the Figures 2a and 2b represent a diagram, in section in the XY plane, of a second embodiment of a device 100 for launching the projectile 11.
  • the barrel 18 comprises a first 24 of two elements 23, 24 of helical connection.
  • the projectile 11 comprises a second 23 of two elements 23, 24 of helical connection fixed in the hollow portion 14 of the projectile 11, the first 24 and the second 23 helical connecting elements forming a mechanism 22 of combined movement, so as to generate simultaneously a rotation about the axis X and translation along the axis X of the projectile 11 relative to the barrel 18.
  • the mechanism 22 of combined movement may be a screw-nut assembly, or preferably an assembly with a ball screw or screw rollers for limiting the friction between the two connecting elements 23, 24.
  • the pressure of the compressed fluid pushes the projectile 11 outside the barrel 18.
  • the vents 15 with a substantially radial output make it possible to generate a rotational movement about the axis X of the projectile 11.
  • the projectile maintains its trajectory in its axis, trajectory along the axis X, it is desirable that it be well accelerated in rotation around its X axis so that it always stays in the same direction.
  • One of the two elements 23 or 24 is similar to a threaded rod and the other of the two elements 23 or 24 is similar to a nut.
  • the projectile 11 According to the number N of steps on which the nut is engaged on the threaded rod, the projectile 11 will perform the same number N of turns on itself, thus a movement of N rotations, as shown in FIG. figure 2a , before being released in translation and to be ejected, as shown on the figure 2b .
  • the linking mechanism 22 thus allows the projectile 11 to acquire greater angular acceleration around the X axis before accelerating in translation along the X axis.
  • the figure 3 represents a diagram, in section in the XY plane, of a third embodiment of a device 110 for launching the projectile 11 comprising the barrel 18.
  • the barrel 18 comprises a first substantially radial opening 25. This substantially radial opening 25 allows compressed fluid to exit the barrel 18 after it flows through the projectile 11.
  • the barrel 18 comprises a head 26 and a body 27, the head 26 of the barrel 18 extending from the second 20 of the two ends of the barrel 18 to the opening 25, the body 27 of the barrel 18 extending from the opening 25 of the barrel 18 to the first 19 of both ends of the barrel 18.
  • the diameter of the body 27 of the barrel 18 is smaller than the diameter of the head 26 of the barrel 18.
  • the diameter of the body 17 of the projectile 11 is smaller than the diameter of the head 16 of the projectile 11.
  • the diameter of the body 17 of the projectile 11 is smaller than the diameter of the body 27 of the barrel 18 and the diameter of the head 16 of the projectile 11 is smaller than the diameter of the head 26 of the barrel 18.
  • the diameter of the head 26 of the barrel 28 is substantially greater than the diameter of the head 16 of the projectile 11
  • the diameter of the body 27 of the barrel 18 is substantially greater than the diameter of the body 17 of the projectile 11.
  • This difference in diameters between the bodies and the heads respectively constitutes a guidance system of the projectile 11.
  • the bodies corresponding to a first diameter smaller than a second diameter corresponding to that of the heads during its ejection, the projectile 11 is simultaneously releases at the level of the body and the head. This configuration thus avoids any disturbance in the trajectory of the projectile 11 which could be generated by the vibrations at the gun.
  • the Figures 4a and 4b represent a diagram, in section in the XY plane, of a fourth embodiment of a device 120 for launching the projectile 11 comprising the barrel 18.
  • the barrel 18 comprises a discharge conduit 28 having two ends 29, 30.
  • the barrel 18 comprises a second opening 31 between the first opening 25 of the barrel 18 and the second 20 of the two ends of the barrel 18.

  • the compressed fluid having a certain pressure and a certain flow rate must, after passing through the projectile 11, be evacuated from the barrel 18 As explained previously with the figure 3 the compressed fluid can simply be discharged through the radial opening 25 of the barrel 18. In this case, the compressed fluid is released to the outside (space, atmosphere, ie in the place of use of the spinning device of the projectile). It is also possible to use the evacuation of the compressed fluid to generate an aerodynamic effect on the projectile 11, as shown in FIGS. Figures 4a and 4b . On the figure 4a the projectile 11 is in a phase of angular acceleration.
  • the combined movement mechanism 22 promotes the rotational acceleration of the projectile 11 and the radial opening 25 is substantially opposite to at least one vent 15.
  • the compressed fluid exits the projectile 11 through the vent, generates a torque on the projectile 11 and rotates on itself.
  • the compressed fluid then enters the exhaust duct 28 through the first end 29 (i.e. through the radial opening 25) and exits the exhaust duct 28 through the second end 30 (ie ie the second opening 31).
  • the connecting elements 23, 24 of the mechanism 22 of combined movement being released from each other, that is to say the projectile 11 having acquired a sufficient angular acceleration, the projectile 11 moves towards the end 20 of the barrel 18.
  • the vents 15 are then in vis-à-vis the second end 30 of the discharge conduit 28.
  • the compressed fluid then enters the exhaust pipe 28 through the second end 30 and spring of the exhaust duct 28 through the radial opening 25 at the the first end 29 of the discharge duct 28.
  • the flow of the compressed fluid to the body 27 of the barrel 18 will generate an increase in pressure in the body 27 of the barrel 18 and thus generate an additional force on the projectile according to the invention.
  • X axis promoting acceleration in translation along the X axis of the projectile 11.

  • a blade is wound and unrolled easily, with a minimum size in rolled configuration, because wrapped around the Z axis and substantially in the XY plane, which prevents the blade from becoming entangled. Nevertheless, it is also possible to consider a cable or rope instead of the blade, the cable or the rope, just like the blade 42, being able to pass from a configuration wrapped around the Z axis around the fixed support 43 to the first object 40 to a deployed configuration along the X axis.
