Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a miniature electro -pyrotechnic igniter suitable for use in miniature spacecraft, and to an ignition head for the same.
  • Spacecraft and in particular miniature spacecraft such as cubesats, place stringent demands on, inter aha, the volume, weight, safety and reliability of their components.
  • Common components include cool gas generators and rocket motors, both of which may include electro-pyrotechnic ignition heads.
  • a conventional electro-pyrotechnic ignition head may typically include an electrically resistive bridge wire that is at least partially embedded within a pyrotechnic primer charge. By passing an electric current through the bridge wire, the bridge wire may be heated to set off the primer charge. The primer charge may in turn ignite a further pyrotechnic charge, such as a cool gas generator charge in the case of a cool gas generator, or a propellant grain in the case of a rocket motor.
  • a first aspect of the present disclosure is directed to an electric non -pyrotechnic ignition head suitable for use in an electro -pyrotechnic igniter.
  • the ignition head may include a housing defining a front opening; an electrically insulative, thermally conductive bridge filament support body that is at least partly disposed in said front opening, and that defines a frontal heating surface; and a bridge filament including at least one cross-over portion that extends over the frontal heating surface of the bridge filament support body.
  • the presently disclosed ignition head features a bridge filament having at least one, and preferably multiple, cross-over portions that extend over a frontal heating surface of an electrically insulative, thermally conductive bridge filament support body.
  • the electrically insulative nature of the bridge filament support body allows for multiple spread apart cross-over portions to extend over the same frontal heating surface without short-circuiting.
  • the thermally conductive nature of the bridge filament support body additionally facilitates the distribution of heat therein. Accordingly, heat generated by the cross-over portions of the bridge filament may quickly spread across the entire frontal heating surface to enable the uniform heating of an end face of a pyrotechnic charge that is in contact therewith.
  • the ignition head may further comprise a non- pyrotechnic, electrically insulative, thermally conductive shield film, for instance made of Kapton®, that is applied over the at least one cross-over portion of the bridge filament.
  • a shield film may alternatively form part of a pyrotechnic charge to be ignited, e.g. as a coating of the pyrotechnic composition of the pyrotechnic charge.
  • the shield film may be interposed between at least the bridge filament's crossovers and the pyrotechnic composition of the pyrotechnic charge, and preferably between the entire frontal heating surface of the bridge wire support body and the pyrotechnic composition of the pyrotechnic charge.
  • the shield film may act as an ignition retardation control, and as such as a lightweight safety mechanism that prevents accidental ignitions much like a conventional safe and arm device. It enables the transfer of heat from the cross-over portions of the bridge filament, and preferably from the entire frontal heating surface of the bridge filament support body, to the pyrotechnic composition of the pyrotechnic charge.
  • the shield film may be provided with a heat transfer coefficient that - in a given, overall configuration - ensures that a minimum amount of electric ignition energy is required to effect ignition of the pyrotechnic charge. Since the thickness of the shield film is an easily variable parameter, the presently disclosed ignition head is conveniently tunable for different ignition times.
  • a second aspect of the present disclosure is directed to an electro- pyrotechnic igniter.
  • the electro-pyrotechnic igniter may include a casing.
  • the casing may define an interior reaction chamber, and at least one exhaust orifice via which the reaction chamber is fluidly connected to an external environment of the electro-pyrotechnic igniter.
  • the electro-pyrotechnic igniter may further include at least one ignition head according to the first aspect of the present disclosure, whose housing is integrated with the casing, such that its bridge filament is at least partially disposed within the reaction chamber.
  • the electro-pyrotechnic igniter may also include a pyrotechnic charge that is disposed within the reaction chamber, such that a pyrotechnic composition of the pyrotechnic charge is in thermally conductive contact with (any cross-overs portions of) the bridge filament of the at least one ignition head via an interposed non-pyrotechnic, electrically insulative, thermally conductive shield film.
  • a third aspect of the present disclosure is directed to a spacecraft, for instance a satellite such as a cubesat, including at least one of an ignition head according to the first aspect of the present disclosure and/or an electro- pyrotechnic igniter according to the second aspect of the present disclosure.
  • Fig. 1 schematically illustrates an exemplary embodiment of an electro -pyrotechnic igniter according to the present disclosure in, respectively, a bottom perspective view (Fig. 1A), a top perspective view (Fig. IB), an orthogonal top view (Fig. 1C), and a cross-sectional side view taken along line D-D indicated in Fig. 1C (Fig. ID); and

  • Fig. 1 schematically illustrates an exemplary embodiment of an electro -pyrotechnic igniter 1 according to the present disclosure.
  • Such an electro -pyrotechnic igniter 1 may include at least one ignition head 100.
  • the embodiment of the electro-pyrotechnic igniter depicted in Fig. 1 includes two identical ignition heads 100, whose construction is schematically illustrated in more detail in Fig. 2.

  • the ignition head 100 may be characterized as a non-pyrotechnic, electric ignition head 100. That is, the electrically powered ignition head 100 may itself be void of any pyrotechnic composition, and merely be configured to effect the ignition of a separate or external pyrotechnic charge 300 when it is brought in contact therewith, for instance when it is applied to ignite a cool gas generator charge in a cool gas generator or a booster-pellet in an electro -pyrotechnic igniter 1. In this respect some conventional ignition heads that are suitable for igniting pyrotechnic charges may differ from the presently disclosed ignition head 100.
  • Such conventional ignition heads may in particular comprise a pyrotechnic primer charge or primer composition in which a bare/uncoated bridge wire of the ignition head is embedded. It is understood that the non-pyrotechnic ignition head 100 according to the present disclosure may include no such pyrotechnic primer charge, and that its bridge filament 120 may not be embedded in a pyrotechnic composition. As will be clarified below, any pyrotechnic composition to be ignited with the presently disclosed ignition head 100 may be separated from the bridge filament 120 by an electrically insulative, thermally conductive shield film 140, which may either form part of the ignition head 100 or part of the pyrotechnic charge 300.

  • the bridge filament support body 130 may be circumferentially dimensioned such that it is approximately fittingly receivable in the front opening 106 of the housing 102, and be at least partially disposed therein such that an inner surface 132a of the bridge filament support body 130 faces the interior space 104 of the housing 102, and an outer frontal heating surface 132b of the bridge filament support body 130 faces outward from the interior space 104.
  • the bridge filament support body 130 may serve to mechanically support a thin bridge filament 120, to electrically insulate the cross-overs 122 of the bridge filament 120 from each other and the housing 102, and to distribute heat produced by the bridge filament 120 over its frontal heating surface 132b.
  • the bridge filament support body may preferably be (one or more of) substantially rigid, electrically insulative, heat resistant and thermally conductive.
  • at least the frontal heating surface 132b of the bridge filament support body 130 may preferably be heat reflective, such that it reflects radiative heat given off the bridge filament's cross-overs 122.
  • the frontal heating surface 132b may be provided with a heat reflective coating.
  • the bridge filament support body 130 is at least partially made of a ceramic material, such as, for instance, silicon nitride (S13N4), silicon carbide (SiC), or aluminum oxide (AI2O3).

  • the cross-over terminals 122 may take the form of through-holes or circumferentially bounded passages.
  • the cross-over terminals 122 may take the form of indentations or recesses defined by an outer circumferential edge 134 of the frontal heating surface 134.
  • the crossover terminals 136 may be arranged such that straight lines interconnecting the terminals of respective pairs do not intersect each other.
  • a bridge filament 120 may thus be provided on, e.g. wrapped around, the bridge filament support body 130 to define a plurality of cross-overs 122, each of which cross-overs 122 may be uniquely associated with a pair of cross-over terminals 136, and each of which may extend only between its associated pair of cross-over terminals 136 across the frontal heating surface 123b and without intersecting other cross- overs.
  • the bridge filament 120 may be a relatively thin, relatively high- electrical-resistance element in the form of a continuous wire, ribbon (flat wire) or the like.

  • the bridge filament 120 and in particular its cross-overs 122 (122a, 122b, 122c, 122d), may preferably not electrically conductively contact a pyrotechnic charge 300 to be ignited.
