Abstract

739,417. Rocket motors. ANSTALT FUR DIE ENTWICKLUNG VON ERFINDUNGEN UND GEWERBLICHEN ANWENDUNGEN ENERGA. Feb. 8, 1954 [March 14, 1953], No. 3661/54. Class 9(2). Fig. 2 shows a rocket motor comprising a cylindrical chamber 1 containing tubular sticks 2 of propellant supported by the base of a frustoconical grid 4 and into which is screwed a plug 5 through which extend convergent-divergent openings forming exit nozzles 6 for the propellant gases. The narrow end 7 of the grid has force fit in the plug and surrounds an igniter 10 extending into the grid, but held at a distance from the propellant, from a metal casing 11 which is screwed into the plug. The grid has a base flange 9 extending to the inner wall of the casing and the openings 13 may be at least 15 per square cm. each having a diameter less than 2 mms. For a rocket motor operating with maximum pressures of 200 to 300 kg/sq. cm. at least 600 and preferably more than 1000 openings are provided. The semi-vertical angle of the conical grid is preferably between 3 and 10 degrees. An annular wad 15 obturating the nozzles 6 is adapted to yield at a predetermined pressure. A detonator 12 projecting from the plug 5 is adapted to initiate the igniter, which may contain an alumino-thermic mixture, by percussion. Stabilising fins 16 are fixed to the casing 1.
