| 20110203474 | FUZE FOR A PROJECTILE - A fuze for a projectile having a firing chain has an interrupter for interruption of the firing chain. The interruptor is configured to snap from a safe position to an armed position when unlocked. A locking device is disposed to lock the interrupter in the safe position and to unlock the interrupter by way of an unlocking movement. The fuze is rendered compact and reliable in that the unlocking movement of the locking device is an axial movement. | 08-25-2011 |
| 20100326307 | Safety and Arming Unit for a Projectile - A safety and arming unit for a fuze of a projectile has a rotor for interruption of a firing chain. The rotor can rotate from a safe position to an armed position. In order to allow the safety and arming unit to be designed to be physically compact and such that it can be assembled easily, it is proposed that it has a first and a second rotor safety device which each engage in the rotor in order to block rotor rotation to the armed position, wherein the first rotor safety device is designed to carry out a release movement by virtue of its inertia during a launch acceleration of the projectile, and the second rotor safety device has a pyrotechnic charge for producing a release movement. | 12-30-2010 |
| 20100005993 | FUZE FOR A PROJECTILE - A fuze for a projectile has a firing assembly for firing a main charge of the projectile and a delay detonator for firing the firing assembly after a delay time which is defined by a burning distance of a delay charge. The delay detonator has a housing with a fuze half in which it is fired and a detonator half which contains a detonator charge for firing the firing assembly. In order to prevent the projectile from misfiring as a result of premature detonation of the delay detonator, the housing has a relief opening in the fuze half, with an opening cross section that can be passed through freely in the firing state of the delay detonator. | 01-14-2010 |
| 20090260533 | FUSE FOR A PROJECTILE - A fuse for a projectile has a primary firing assembly and a secondary firing assembly. The secondary firing assembly, which is separated from the primary firing assembly by a barrier, has a firing relay with a relay explosive in a sleeve component and a firing booster. When using insensitive explosive for the secondary firing assembly, little energy should be lost in the relay from the primary to the secondary firing assembly, with enhanced safety against inadvertent firing in the secondary firing assembly. For that purpose, the sleeve component forms a gas-tight seal for the secondary firing assembly with respect to the primary firing assembly. | 10-22-2009 |
| 20090255431 | MINIATURIZED PRIMING CHAIN - A modular miniaturized priming chain has a detonator and a priming booster assembly. The priming booster assembly includes a first priming booster and a second priming booster which can be modularly combined together depending on the respective power requirement at an output of the priming chain, or only the first priming booster is combined with the detonator, which is a miniature detonator. | 10-15-2009 |
| 20090126593 | Safety and Arming Unit for a Fuse - A safety and arming unit for a fuse includes a firing chain having first and second firing devices defining an intermediate space therebetween and a barrier blocking the intermediate space in a safe position. The firing chain is brought into an armed position by a releasing movement vacating the intermediate space. First and second mutually independent securing devices lock the barrier in the safe position and execute an unlocking action based on two mutually independent physical arming parameters. A compact and very reliable safety and arming unit can be achieved in this way. | 05-21-2009 |
| 20080245257 | Projectile with a Penetration Capability - A penetration-capable projectile has a casing and a fuze with a fuze housing lower part. An interface area between the casing of the projectile and the fuze housing lower part is formed with a shape and/or strength modification which prevents the fuze housing lower part from being pushed into the casing on impact with a target that is to be penetrated. | 10-09-2008 |
