GAS OPERATED EXTENDIBLE PROBE FOR BALLISTIC MODEL iled Ma 1 959 FIG]. 25 I7 I F E63. II 43 39 30 m V I 1NVENTOR5 J. J. GALLAGHER R. W|TT,JR.,
A ORNEY United States The invention described herein may be manufactured and used by or for the Government of the United States of America for governmental purposes without the payment of any royalties thereon or therefor.
This invention relates generally to a ballistic model having a chamber for trapping and utilizing explosion gases and more specifically to a projectile having a thin probe in a retracted position therein which is forced outwardly and forwardly when the force of acceleration has ceased during flight of the projectile.
In the testing of ballistic models it was found desirable to utilize the energy of the explosion or propulsion gases to perform useful functions when the model is in flight. The explosion gases may be used, for example, to move a thin probe from a recessed position within the model to an extended position after the model has been fired from a gas or powder gun. The gases may also be used to shift the center of gravity of a ballistic model after it has been launched.
Another example of such use of trapped gases may be to move control surfaces of a ballistic model to a desired position after the model has been launched. Gases may be trapped in a chamber of a ballistic model by providing an aperture at the rear of the model containing a check valve. Upon explosion, gases are forced through the aperture into a gas chamber, but prevented from escaping by virtue of the check valve.
It is an object of this invention to provide a ballistic model with a gas chamber having a check valve for capturing the explosion or propulsion gases used in launching the model.
It is another object of this invention to provide a high velocity ballistic model of a projectile having a gas chamber therein for moving a probe into :a forwardly extended position from a position within the model while the model is in flight.
It is another object of this invention to provide means for capturing propulsion gases within a ballistic model for shifting the center of gravity of the model after it is launched.
It is a further object of this invention to provide a ballistic model with a chamber for trapping explosion gases for performing useful functions after the model has been launched.
It is a still further object of this invention to utilize explosion or propulsion gases to operate control surfaces of a ballistic model while the model is in flight.
Other objects and many of the attendant advantages of this invention will be readily appreciated as thesame becomes better understood by reference to the following detailed description when considered in connection with the accompanying drawing in which like reference numerals designate like parts throughout the figures thereof and wherein:
FIG. 1 illustrates a cross-sectional view of a ballistic model with the probe thereof in the retracted position;
FIG. 2 illustrates a cross-sectional view of the ballistic model with the probe moved partially forward;
FIG. 3 illustrates a cross-sectional view of the probe locked in the extended position; and
FIG. 4 illustrates the mounting assembly of the model in a gun.
atent Referring now to FIG. 1 of the drawing, the ballistic model or projectile is comprised of a body portion 11 and a nose portion 13. The nose portion is threaded into the body portion. A rod-like probe 15 is shown c0- axially contained within the model. Probe 15 is fixedly connected to piston 17 which is sildeably engaged in cylinder 18 of the body portion 11 of the model. Piston 17 is provided with an annular groove to accept an expansible annular ring such as an expansible annular ring known in the art as an O-ring. The body portion 11 of the model has a gas chamber 21 connected by a communicating passage 25 to the cylinder 18. Probe 15 is shown with a collar 27 fixedly connected to the front portion of the probe and adapted to be positioned adjacent to the front of the nose portion when the probe is in the recessed position. The back wall of chamber 21 is formed by a circular plate 28 having axial holes 29 near the center of the plate to provide for passage of explosion gases into chamber 21. Plate 28 is held in position by a threaded member 30 having a hub portion with a tapered axial hole 31. A ball 33 fits within the tapered hole to form a ball check arrangement therewith. The nose portion 13 of the model contains an axial bore of a diameter such that probe 15 will fit slideably therein. The nose portion also has an axial recess 35 which provides for a retaining collar 37 to be slideable therein. The diameter of this recess is larger than that of cylinder 18 such that the retaining collar 37 will not enter the cylinder. Retaining collar 37 is provided with radial holes 39 and an enlarged central bore therein within which the probe 15 is disposed. The body portion 11 of the model has a radially disposed annular recess 41 which provides space for contractible ring 43. Annular recess 41 is also provided with ports 45. Ports 45 and the holes 39 in retaining collar 37 provide a path for air to escape as piston 17 moves forward.
In operation, when the powder or propelling charge is exploded, the initial setback force holds the probe retracted with piston 17 pressing against the rear end of cylinder 18. Ball 33- is forced by gas pressure toward the large opening of tapered hole 31 with explosion gases permitted to pass by it and enter chamber 21. As the pressure of the gases build up in chamber 21, ball 33 is forced backward to the small opening of tapered hole 31 locking these gases in chamber 21 to maintain a pressure therein.
Referring to FIG. 2 of the drawings, the result of the gas pressure in chamber 21 has now forced the piston 17 partly forward. Ball 33 is shown forced against the small opening of taperetd hole 31. As piston 17 moves forward, the air in cylinder 18 in front of piston 17 is forced out of the cylinder, through the holes 39 in the retaining ring 37 and through ports 45. Piston 17 will continue to move forward until it is stopped by retaining collar 37. When piston 17 comes in contact with retaining collar 3-7 it will force it into the axial recess and against the nose portion 13 of the model. As the retaining collar is being moved forward, the contratible ring 4-3 slides from the retaining collar to the annular groove in piston 17, FIG. 3. When the ring 43 snaps into the annular groove of piston 17, pro-be 15 is locked in the extended position. Piston 17 and probe 15, are thus prevented by the ring 43 from moving backward from the extended position thereof.
Referring now to FIG. 3 of the drawing, probe 15 and piston 17 are shown in the extreme forward position with ring 43 fitted in the groove of piston 17, locking the piston in this position.
Referring now to FIG. 4 of the drawing, the ballistic model is illustrated mounted within a gun. The model is shown located within a gun barrel 51. The model is supported within the gun barrel by sabot 53 and spacer 55. Shell 57 containing an explosive 59 is shown behind spacer 55. Spacer 55 contains a coaxial bore 61 which provides for passage of explosion gases into the chamber of the model. Sabot 53 has a plurality of radially disposed slots 63 which serve to weaken the sabot such that it will break apart and leave the model after the model leaves the gun barrel. Sabot 53 is also provided with coaxial tapered bores 65 and 67. Tapered bore 65 has the same taper as the side surface of the model and serves to support the model centrally within gun barrel 51. Tapered hole 67 serves to collect oncoming air which acts to break sabot 53 apart soon after the ballistic model leaves the gun barrel.
The extensible probe is illustrated as an example of one use to which the trapped gases may be put. This invention, however, is not limited to this particular use. As an example of another use, the piston 17 may be in the form of a large mass which would be shifted from the rearward portion of the projectile to the forward portion of the projectile to shift the center of gravity of the pro jectile after firing. An example of another use might be to have piston 17 adapted to force air or gases out through particular ports to move control surfaces to a particular desired position after the projectile is fired.
Obviously many modifications and variations of the present invention are possible in the light of the above teachings. It is therefore to be understood that within the scope of the appended claims the invention may be practiced otherwise than as specifically described.
What is claimed as new and desired to be secured by Letters Patent of the United States is:'
