摘要:
The invention relates to a process for the manufacture of an explosive ammunition component with controlled fragmentation, comprising a charge of solid explosive contained in a metal casing internally clad with a sleeve externally provided with indentations. A rigid sleeve made of plastic or elastomer, externally provided with indentations and which has a form of a vessel provided with a single opening, is produced first of all, and then this sleeve is introduced, with the bottom first, into a metal casing comprising an opening and whose shape and dimensions are such as to allow the sleeve to clad the casing internally. A pasty or liquid explosive composition is next cast into the sleeve and the composition is then solidified.

The present invention relates to an effective and explosive munition component of low vulnerability, consisting of a casing 1 containing an explosive charge consisting of an internal layer 2 made of plastic bonded explosive in which the filler contains at least one organic nitrated explosive, coated with a peripheral adjacent coaxial layer 3 made of less sensitive pyrotechnic composition consisting of a filled polymeric matrix in which the filler contains at least one inorganic oxidizing agent or an organic nitrated explosive.The interface between the two layers 2 and 3 is of star-shaped cross-section.The invention also relates to the process for obtaining a fragmentation effect by detonation of the layer 2, reaction of the layer 3 followed by bursting of the casing due to the pressure of the gases formed.

The invention relates to a low-vulnerability explosive munitions element comprising a casing containing a multicomposition explosive charge, the innermost layer of which is a composite explosive comprising a filled polyurethane or polyester polymer matrix, the filling of which contains more than 40% by weight of organic nitrate explosive, and the peripheral layer of which is a pyrotechnic composition of the family of composite solid propellants comprising a filled polyurethane or polyester polymer matrix the filling of which contains at least one mineral oxidant and less than 10% by weight of organic nitrate explosive. The blast and/or bubble effect produced is close to that produced by the much more-vulnerable charge of monocomposition composite explosive of equivalent mass. The invention also relates to a method for obtaining a blast and/or bubble effect by releasing in the casing of an aforementioned munitions element according to the invention, and then rupture of the casing. The release of gas is obtained by detonation of the innermost layer and then reaction without detonation of the peripheral layer.

Low-vulnerability component of explosive ammunition and process for initiating a charge of low-sensitivity composite explosive. The subject of the present invention is a low-vulnerability component of explosive ammunition consisting of a preferably metallic enclosure 1 containing a charge 2 of low-sensitivity composite explosive E and, as initiating relay, a plane wave generator 3 consisting, on the one hand, of a cylindroconical cap 7 made of composite explosive A, the large base surface having a diameter d greater than the critical diameter of the explosive E, the cavity 8 of this cap 7 being filled with a composite explosive B and, on the other hand, of a reinforcer made of composite explosive C, of thickness e greater than 0.1 d, the detonation pressure of the explosive C being higher than that of the explosive E. The detonability index according to the test for detonability behind a barrier is between 90 and 200 cards in the case of the explosives A, B and C and lower than 90 cards in the case of the explosive E. The invention also relates to the process for initiating the charge 2 using the generator 3.
摘要:
A subject-matter of the present invention is a safety igniter for a pyrotechnic munition component capable of being subjected to slow cook-off comprising a structure in the form of a casing and a solid pyrotechnic charge present in the structure. This safety igniter, which is composed solely of a block of solid pyrotechnic composition based on pentrite, is intended to bring about the combustion without detonation of the pyrotechnic charge when the munition component is subjected to slow cook-off.

The blast and/or bubble effect produced is close to that produced by the much more-vulnerable charge of monocomposition composite explosive of equivalent mass. The invention also relates to a method for obtaining a blast and/or bubble effect by releasing in the casing of an aforementioned munitions element according to the invention, and then rupture of the casing. The release of gas is obtained by detonation of the innermost layer and then reaction without detonation of the peripheral layer.
