Abstract

550,897. Fuzes for projectiles, bombs and the like. MIDGLEY, A. H. Sept. 15, 1941. No. 11800. [Class 9 (i)] Fuzes for projectiles, bombs and the like of the kind which are armed by the rotation of a vaned member, have the vanes of the arming device detachable so that rotation of the device ceases after arming. The striker c has a cylindrical guide portion working in a sleeve e and a screwed extension portion coacting with a nut f to which is attached a cap portion g. This member is slotted at i<SP>1</SP> to receive the end portions of angle-shaped cone-members i which are slotted at their lower ends i<SP>1</SP> to fit over a retaining upstanding flange k secured to the body a. A lip is provided on the end portion of each vane and a lower notch is also provided to receive the edge of the cap. For a projectile, the cap is normally prevented from rotation by a spring plunger m which sets back at firing to release the cap so that it can be rotated to release the striker. During this movement the slotted ends of the vanes are released from the retaining flange k and the vanes fly off leaving the nut f to act with the striker for ignition on impact. The shear pin d retains the plunger against movement until impact.
