Abstract

966,035. Tail stabilizers for projectiles. BOMBRINI PARODI-DELFINO S.p.A. Oct. 4, 1961 [Oct. 12, 1960], No. 35734/61. Heading F3A. A projectile is provided with a tail stabilizer comprising trapezoidal flat blades 1 mounted in a bushing 6 which is screwed on to the projectile tail 10, the blades being deployable from a collapsed position in which the blades lie in planes parallel to diametral planes passing through the longitudinal axis of the projectile to an extended position in which the blades lie in the diametral planes, the deployment taking place in a single rotary movement of the blades. The stabilizer may be mounted on the nozzle of a rocket fired from a launching tube and may comprise four blades 1 of light alloy, each blade root 2 being shaped to cooperate with guide surfaces of recesses 7 in which the blades are pivoted on pins 3, Fig. 6. Surrounding the aperture-receiving pin 3, each blade has an annular recess housing a helical driving spring 4 one end of which is engaged in a recess in the bushing so that when the missile leaves the launcher the spring 4 forces the associated blade to the open position. A spring-pressed bolt 5, Fig. 6, housed in the bushing, then moves until its conical tip engages a recess in the blade root 2 and so locks the blade in the extended position.
