Definitions
- the invention relates to an active body, in particular a decoy active body, comprising at least one active mass and at least two ignition means, each comprising a pyrotechnic charge for igniting the active mass.
- the invention also relates to a method for igniting an active body.
- Active bodies such as decoy active bodies, are used in aviation. Since about 1970, such decoy target bodies have been provided under a protective film or in a container and initiated from one side. This applies in particular to all conventional MTV (Magnesium-Teflon-Viton) decoy effective bodies and spectral decoy effective bodies.
- MTV Magnetic-Teflon-Viton
- the ignition chain is activated for the active body, which is preferably elongated in aircraft, from the launch side, preferably via a safety system, and then ignites the active body after it has been released.
- active bodies often have a fast-burning set of coatings in order to achieve all-round ignition in the required time.
- Decoy active bodies with certain active masses and geometries are subject to ignition problems due to the design and the type of use, which can lead to a delayed and less power development in the initial phase of initiation.
- the initiation usually takes place from an ignition side in the bottom area, the so-called end face of the active body and runs through this inside or outside along the surface in the direction of the discharge side in order to finally achieve an all-round reaction of the active body.
- the ignition problems described above can have a direct impact on the effectiveness against the threat during the ignition phase.
- Document DE 10 2009 030 871 A1 discloses an active body with a combustible active material container based on plastic film, which can be ignited inductively, by means of a laser or at high temperature.
- DE 10 2016 122 740 A1 discloses a pyrotechnic active body with a housing, an ignition device and at least one active component. The ignition device is arranged, for example, in the base of the active body.
- the patent application DE 10 2010 030 869 A1 discloses an active body with several active masses, which has several individual flares arranged one behind the other, which can be ignited inductively, by means of a laser or by high temperature.
- Document DE 10 2009 030 872 A1 relates to an active body that is inductively ignited, consisting of individual flares that are packaged in a carrier material such as a steel foil coated with red phosphorus.
- Document DE 10 2004 047 231 A1 discloses an active body of the generic type which has a plurality of active substances and ignition means. How the ignition is carried out and how the ignition means are arranged is not disclosed.
- the invention is based on the object of creating an active body which enables a number of active masses to be ignited quickly and reliably.
- an active body in particular a decoy active body, comprising at least one active mass, at least two ignition means each comprising one pyrotechnic charge for igniting the at least one active mass.
- the at least two ignition means are arranged on the at least one active mass and the at least two ignition means are connected to one another via channels in such a way that the at least one active mass can be ignited on several sides at the same time.
- the active body comprises at least one active mass, at least two ignition means each comprising a pyrotechnic charge for igniting the active mass.
- the at least two ignition means are arranged on the at least one active mass and the at least two ignition means are connected to one another via channels in such a way that the at least one active mass can be ignited simultaneously on several sides.
- the active body in such a way that it can be initiated, ie ignited, on more than one side, but at least on two sides, for example on the side surfaces as well as the opposite side. It is therefore an active body with multiple ignition.
- the at least one active mass is preferably at least one pyrotechnic active mass, as is used in flares.
- the channels are preferably ignition channels that are designed to ignite the ignition means or direct ignition to the ignition means.
- the channels can be arranged symmetrically and / or asymmetrically to one another.
- Multi-sided at the same time means that the active body or the at least one active mass can be ignited simultaneously at several points, such as sides, top, bottom or edges. Simultaneously in the sense of the invention means that the at least one active masses can be ignited essentially without a time delay.
- the ignition means within the meaning of the invention are, for example, detonators, smaller ignition-sensitive pyrotechnic sets or other known ignition means.
- the multi-sided ignition according to the invention ensures that large-area, less sensitive active materials can be ignited quickly and reliably by significantly smaller ignition means. Since a plurality of ignition means is provided, the reliability of the ignition is improved by this redundant provision of the ignition means.
- the active body according to the invention in particular the simultaneous multi-sided ignitability of the at least one active compound, achieves a lower scattering behavior and improved responsiveness in use. In addition, there is a better development of the active body.
- the at least two active masses can be of the same size and / or of different sizes. By means of a large number of different active substances, it is possible to adjust the wavelength of the spectrum emitted by the active body during the burn-off of the active substances.
- the active body has at least two active masses and the ignition means are arranged between the active masses of the active body in such a way that the at least two active masses can be ignited simultaneously on multiple sides.
- the ignition means are arranged inside and / or outside the active body.
- the pyrotechnic charge of the ignition means and the at least one active mass are separated from one another by an inert material.
- the at least one active mass and / or the ignition means are separated from one another by a film, a housing or an air gap.
- the individual active compounds can preferably be separated from one another in this way.
- Such a physical separation can take place, for example, by means of a film or a housing made of paper, plastic or metal.
- the active body has grooves, grooves and / or bores.
- the channels run in the grooves, grooves and / or bores.
- the individual active materials are preferably separated by these grooves and / or grooves.
- the positioning of the channels is specified and, on the other hand, it is achieved that the channels do not or only slightly protrude beyond the contour of the active body.
- the grooves and / or grooves run in such a way that they intersect at several intersection points and the ignition means are formed at the intersection points.
- grooves, grooves and / or bores are arranged inside and / or outside the active body.
- the active body is protected from environmental influences by a film or a housing. This ensures that the active body can be reliably ignited even at high wind and / or ejection speeds - for example when fired from a fast-flying aircraft or aircraft.
- the active body does not have a pyrotechnic coating set that covers the entire active body.
- a coating set is a fast-burning set that covers the active body covers and allows lighting from all sides. This has the advantage that the active body can be approved even if no suitable approved coating set exists.
- the ignition means are arranged in such a way and the length of the channels is designed such that the ignition means can be ignited at the same time.
- the ignition means are connected to an ignition initiator via the channels.
- the active body is essentially cuboid and has essentially cuboid effective masses.
- This can in particular be an active body for ammunition in the NATO standard caliber 2x1x8 "or 1x1x8".
- it can also be a cylindrical active body, preferably with a diameter of 36 mm or 55 mm.
- the active body is spherical or triangular.
