Definitions

  • This invention relates to an apparatus specially designed for automatically dropplng projectiles from an aircraft in controlling 1 the operation of the fuzes of the same.
  • the apparatus is constructed so that (1) theprojectile can be released having its fuzes' primed, e. g. in leaving the safety devices of these fuaes attached to the bombthrowelf, (2) the projectile can be released having itsfuzesnot, primed, e. g. to drop with the projectile the safety devices on the fuzes, Y
  • the throwing of the projectile in the one or other manner may be prepared at any 16 moment,and the manner of throwing-may be altered as. long as the releasing manoeuvre 'h n' t akenplac With this object.
  • the apparatus comprises: (a) a main releasing mechanism,
  • n h h v Eig. 1 shows in perspective view the total arrangement of the apparatus in the position in which the projectile is clenched.
  • Fig-Q, 2 is a similar view showing the position in which the projectile is released its fuze being; primed. i r
  • Fig. 3 is a similar view showing the position in which the projectile is clenched but h after the, ,revious' preparation for the throwing *of-tiie projectile its fuze being not 40. primed.
  • Figa t shows in similar View the position after the releasing of the ring .of the safety device.
  • Fig. [5 shows the hook for releasing the projectile, in elevation and in the clenching position.
  • 7 i V Fig. 6 shows, this hook in the releasing position.
  • the apparatus comprisesessentially:
  • an eccentric 21 is keyed which, through the intermediary of a connecting rod 9 communicates an oscillating movement to a lever 10 to which itjis connected and which is pivotally mounted at 11 on the rod 4 which controls the auxiliary releaser 2, 3.
  • a spring 12v serves to, maintain the rod 4 in the position in which the auxiliary releaser 2, 3 is closed.
  • a second drivingaxle 13 serves to move a crank 14 carrying a roller 15 and held in its position of rest by the action of a spring 16, so that the roller- 15 is in the lower position shown in Figs. 1 and 2.
