Definitions

  • the invention relates to a cartridge with a drive system and a projectile connected to the drive system.
  • the propulsion system includes a propellant charge case filled with a propellant charge having a sleeve bottom containing a substantially axially extending sleeve bottom opening with a T-shaped edge contour.
  • the sleeve bottom opening is closed by a T-shaped stopper which receives a primer cap and which is held in this position by a fuse ring of a bursting device in the case bottom opening.
  • Such cartridges are for example from the document DE 10 2011 014 402 A1 known. This document forms the starting point for the invention. These are preferably cartridges whose bullet caliber is in the middle caliber range, preferably between 35 mm and 40 mm.
  • a cartridge ammunition which provides discharge channels between a drive chamber and the exterior of the cartridge case, wherein the discharge channels are filled with a fusible material.
  • the melting material has a lower melting point than the ignition temperature of the ignition device and the propellant charge. If the ambient temperature of the cartridge shell rises above the melting point of the melt material, it melts and releases the discharge channels, so that the propellant charge burns off later without any pressure build-up.
  • the US 2012/0204750 A1 describes a pressure relief system for a cartridge
  • the US 2003/0205161 A1 discloses a method and apparatus for releasably securing a closure panel to a housing.
  • a bursting device In order to avoid that in the case of a fire, for example in an ammunition depot, an explosion of such cartridges can occur, they each contain a bursting device.
  • These consists essentially of a pressure relief opening formed by the sleeve bottom opening and the fuse ring acting as a fuse.
  • the fuse ring is supported with its sleeve bottom facing the back of a projection of the case bottom and limited with its front the propellant charge space.
  • the primer-containing plug is inserted from the back of the case bottom into the case bottom opening and is retained within the case bottom opening by the fuse ring.
  • the front end of the plug neck has a widening, which engages behind the fuse ring on the drive charge side.
  • the fuse ring is made of a pressure-resistant material whose melting point is lower than the lowest ignition temperature of the primer's pyrotechnic primer and propellant charge powder so that in the event of fire, the fuse ring first melts before the primer cap can ignite and the plug disengages and releases the pressure relief port ,
  • the fuse ring is inserted from the bullet of the cartridge facing the front of the propellant charge sleeve in the interior. This complicates the assembly of cartridges, especially with long propelling pods and smaller caliber.
  • the propellant charge is also filled only after the assembly of the fuse ring in the propellant charge sleeve and the bullet only then connected to the propellant charge sleeve.
  • the invention has for its object to provide a cartridge of the type mentioned above, which is easier than comparable known cartridges mountable, and in the case of the launch of the cartridge damage to the fuse ring is reliably avoided.
  • a method for assembling the cartridge will be disclosed.
  • the invention is based essentially on the idea of not arranging the fuse ring at the propellant charge end of the plug neck in the propellant charge case, but between the front of the plug header and the back of a subsequent inside protrusion of the case bottom, such that the propellant charge space is not penetrated by the fuse ring is limited only by the front surface of the stopper neck.
  • the plastically deformable fuse ring has an outer diameter which is chosen such that it can be used for mounting from the outside of the sleeve bottom in the sleeve bottom opening.
  • the fuse ring In the mounted position of the cartridge, the fuse ring is plastically deformed by the axial force exerted thereon by the head portion of the plug, such that its inner edge is positively and / or non-positively deformed into an outer groove-shaped recess of the plug and its outer edge. or engages positively in an inner groove-shaped recess of the sleeve bottom.
  • the fusible link ring is mounted from the back of the case bottom allows for reliable, quick assembly regardless of the length of the cartridge and the caliber of the cartridge. The assembly is now no longer from the inside but from the outside.
  • the plug with the ring is pressed into the sleeve, the ring axially compressed, so that it expands radially and anchored in the propellant charge sleeve and the stopper.
  • the head portion 7 is acted upon in the direction of the fuse ring 13 by an axial force, the front 17 of the fuse ring 13 on the back 11 of the inside projection 12 and the back 18 of the fuse ring 13 on the front 10 of the head part 7 of the plug 6, so that the fuse ring 13 is compressed and plastically deformed.
  • the material of the fuse ring 13 flows radially into a groove-shaped recess 15 of the plug 6 and into a groove-shaped recess 16 of the sleeve bottom 4 (FIG. Fig.2 ).
  • the inner edge 19 of the fuse ring 13 now engages positively and non-positively in the outer groove-shaped recess 15 of the plug (6), and the outer edge 20 of the fuse ring engages positively and non-positively in the inner groove-shaped recess 16 of the sleeve bottom 4.
  • the plug 6 is fixed within the sleeve bottom opening 5, without there being any appreciable loading of the fuse ring 13 by the propellant charge gases in the event of a later firing.
  • the fuse ring 13 melts before it ignites the primer cap 9 or the propellant charge powder and the plug 6 is released so that it ignites after the ignition of the propellant charge 2 Propellant gases is pushed out of the Hüisenbodenö réelle 5 without significant speed.
  • the assembly of the drive system 1 is in turn simplified.
  • the primer 9 is inserted into the plug 6.
  • the fuse ring 13 is used. Then the unit plug 6 and primer 9 is pressed with axial force in the propellant charge case 3.
  • the fuse ring 13 is compressed in height, so that the material plastically deformed and flows radially into the groove-shaped recesses 15 on the propellant charge case 3 and plug 6. By this compression is also given a seal against external environmental influences. The deformation of the fuse ring 13 generates a secure holding force against the forces occurring during transport, vibration and bombardment.
