Definitions

  • rocket according to the invention is particularly well suited to the definition of rockets for projectiles and munitions which can be fired by smooth tubes.
  • the invention also relates to a munition equipped with such a rocket and a method of arming such a rocket.
  • the invention relates to a fuse for a projectile intended to be fired by a cannon by the ignition of a propellant charge by an electrical ignition means, such as an electrical igniter, a fuse capable of passing from a safety position to an armed position, following firing, by the lifting of at least two different safeties, such that the fuse comprises a capacitor which is intended to be connected to the electrical ignition means of the propellant charge and which charges when said propellant charge is ignited, said fuse also comprises a computer which detects the charge of the capacitor to allow the arming of the fuse when this charge is greater than or equal to a reference value, the charge of the capacitor constituting a first firing safety.
  • an electrical ignition means such as an electrical igniter
  • a fuse capable of passing from a safety position to an armed position, following firing, by the lifting of at least two different safeties
  • the fuse comprises a capacitor which is intended to be connected to the electrical ignition means of the propellant charge and which charges when said propellant charge is ignited
  • said fuse also comprises a computer which detects the
  • the rocket may include an electric generator which is initiated by inertia when fired.
  • the rocket may include an inertial sensor which is connected to the computer and which constitutes a second firing safety.
  • the rocket may have a divider bridge between the electric ignition means and the capacitor.
  • the rocket capacitor may be arranged between the gate and the source of a field effect transistor, the drain of this capacitor being powered by the electric generator and being connected to a logic module of the computer, the source also being connected to a ground of the rocket, the threshold voltage V GS of the transistor constituting the reference value.
  • the invention also relates to ammunition which is intended to be fired by a cannon and comprising a projectile and a propellant charge equipped with an electrical ignition means, such as an electrical igniter, fixed to a base, the projectile comprising a fuse according to the preceding characteristics and a wire connection connecting the fuse to the igniter.
  • an electrical ignition means such as an electrical igniter
  • the ammunition may include a divider bridge between the electrical ignition means and the capacitor, a divider bridge which is housed in the base.
  • the firing acceleration as a second event associated with the firing and allowing the rocket to be armed.
  • an electric generator is used which is initiated by inertia during firing, the activation of the generator ensuring the electrical power supply to the rocket.
  • a munition 1 according to the invention is intended to be fired by a cannon (not shown), for example a cannon of caliber greater than or equal to 40mm, such as a 120mm tank cannon.
  • the projectile 2 is fixed to the socket 4 at a front connecting piece 8 and it is equipped with a sealing belt 9.
  • the patent EP307307 describes an example of a connecting part between a projectile and a combustible case.
  • the projectile 2 carries at its rear part a deployable tail 10, pivotally mounted on axes integral with a tail 11.
  • Projectile 2 is for example an explosive projectile whose metallic body contains an explosive material (not shown).
  • the explosive material is capable of being initiated by a fuse 11 (shown in dotted lines) which is housed in a base 2a of projectile 2.
  • the rocket 11 could also be a programmable rocket. It would therefore be possible to associate the wired connection 12 connected to the igniter 6 with another wired connection (not visible Figure 1 ) which will be connected to a contact pad on the base allowing programming signals to be introduced from the rocket 11 before firing.
  • the calculator 18 will measure the charge level of the capacitor 20, for example by comparison with a reference value stored in memory, or more simply by switching a static relay whose switching level (reference value) is set by an electronic circuit (incorporated into the fuse 11) to a level corresponding to the minimum discharge current of the capacitor 20 which is expected.
  • the safety and arming device 13 of the rocket 11 can therefore only move from a safety position to an armed position following the lifting of two different safeties: the detection of the ignition current of the propellant charge and the detection of the longitudinal firing acceleration.
  • the firing safety is then ensured by the fuse 11 itself, which can only control the slapper after the two firing safeties have been lifted.
  • the firing safeties will be logic locks independent of each other and which must be distinct from the firing chain itself.
  • the divider bridge 23, even if it is functionally part of the fuse 11, is structurally arranged at the base 5. Thus the current passing in the wire connection 12 is reduced.
  • the capacitor 20 is powered through a load resistor R 3 , another resistor R 4 is connected in parallel between the terminals of the capacitor 20.
  • the purpose of the resistor R 4 is to allow the discharge of the capacitor 20, after detection of its charged state by the computer 18, during the flight of the projectile. It thus allows the evacuation of parasitic charges which could disturb the operation of the rocket.
  • R 3 and the capacitor 20 in fact form a low-pass filter making it possible to eliminate parasitic high frequencies
  • the firing of the igniter 6 ignites the propellant charge, therefore causes the capacitor 20 to charge.
  • the MOS transistor 24 closes and the current coming from the generator 19 is discharged to the ground 28 via the connection 29. This results in a voltage close to 0 volts applied to the logic module 27 of the computer via the connection 26.
  • the load resistor R 5 makes it possible to avoid short-circuiting the generator 19.
  • the logic module 27 detects the firing acceleration seen by the accelerometer 22.
  • the rocket 11, and more particularly the firing management module 30, also receives, as described previously, the wired connection 21 allowing the programming of the desired operating mode for the rocket.
  • the invention is more particularly suited to ammunition fired from a smooth-bore weapon tube. It is clear, however, that it can also be implemented with ammunition fired from a rifled tube.
  • the firing event associated with the ignition of the propellant charge can then be combined with either axial acceleration of the projectile or rotational acceleration.
