Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a flame guide tube in propellant charge igniter, which is mainly used to ignite large amounts of powder, such as occur, for example, in large-caliber ammunition.
  • propellant lighters contain a known ignition system consisting of a mechanical or electrical primer and a transfer charge, which are located at one end of a flame guide tube, around which an ignition amplifier charge, e.g. is arranged in the form of an annular tablet column.
  • the ignition amplifier charge is located within an ignition guide housing, which is provided on the side with openings for the ignition gases of the ignition amplifier charge to escape.
  • the combustion gases flow in after the transfer charge, which may be located in a pressure chamber, is ignited the flame guide tube, which is laterally provided with radial openings for the ignition flame to escape.
  • Either an ignition booster charge or a propellant charge can be ignited directly by the gases flowing out through these openings.
  • This known arrangement has the disadvantage that the propellant charge or the booster charge is ignited earlier in the area which is closer to the transfer charge than in the areas which are further away, so that no uniform distribution of the flame front of the ignited charge results over its axial extent .
  • Such a spatially and temporally different distribution of the pilot flame front is undesirable.
  • considerable reflections of the axial pressure wave emanating from the transfer charge occur in this known arrangement within the flame guide tube, which reflections can lead to standing pressure waves. Due to such standing pressure waves, the timing and location uneven ignition is e.g. an ignition amplifier charge even further amplified.
  • Flarsmleitrohr for preferably the above-mentioned arrangement, which is characterized in that, starting from the openings in the flame guide tube, such beads are arranged axially, which protrude into the interior of the flame guide tube and whose depth in the direction of the end of the flame guide tube decreases.
  • the flame guide tube according to the invention is particularly suitable for those propellant lighters with which large-caliber ammunition is to be fired.
  • propellant igniters have an ignition guide housing provided with radial outlet openings, in which an ignition booster charge is arranged radially around the flame guide tube located coaxially inside.
  • the beads beginning at the openings of the flame guide tube protrude as elongated depressions into the flame guide tube. They become flatter towards the end of the flame guide tube, the end of the flame guide tube being understood to be the side facing away from the ignition system.
  • the axial length of these recesses depends, among other things. on the diameter of the flame guide tube, the size of the lateral openings in the flame guide tube and the flow rate of the flame gases of the booster charge. In general, the length of the beads is about half to twice the diameter of the flame guide tube. At their ends, i.e. on the side facing away from the ignition system, the bead merges into the wall of the flame guide tube.
  • the beads can have the shape of a conic section; however, they can also be tab-shaped and at their beginning, ie at their lowest point in the area of the lateral openings, be separated from the wall of the flame guide tube so that they protrude there as tongues into the flame guide tube.
  • the angle which the beads or tabs form with the jacket of the flame guide tube is the smallest at those beads which are closest to the ignition system, so that there the beads or tabs protrude only slightly into the interior of the flame guide tube. In a preferred embodiment, this angle becomes increasingly larger towards the end of the flame guide tube, so that the beads at the end of the flame guide tube of constant length protrude furthest inside the flame guide tube.
  • the lateral openings on the flame guide tubes with the adjoining beads are preferably arranged radially. They are then in a cross-sectional plane of the flame guide tube. In such a plane, two or more openings are then arranged in a ring over the circumference of the flame guide tube. According to the invention, it is sufficient if there is a single such ring of openings with the adjoining beads. However, it is expedient to arrange two or more such opening rings in the flame guide tube; the associated beads should protrude the same depth into the tube for each opening ring. The beads on the last opening ring before the end of the flame guide tube can then protrude into the interior of the flame guide tube to such an extent that they completely fill its cross section.
  • the depth with which the beads protrude into the flame guide tube mainly depends on the flow rate and the composition of the ignition gases. It also depends on whether only one or two or more opening rings are arranged along the length of the flame guide tube.
  • the end of the flame guide tube be conical so that the tip of this cone points towards the ignition system.
  • the cone angle aligns again mainly based on the flow velocity and the sound velocity of the hot ignition gases. This cone has the task of eliminating the reflections of the incoming pressure front of the ignition gases by interference.
  • FIG. 1 shows a longitudinal section through a propellant lighter with a flame guide tube according to the invention.
  • an ignition guide housing 4 there is an ignition booster charge 5 which is connected to a flame guide tube 1.
  • the booster charge 6 is arranged between flame guide tube 1 and the convertible dun g of Zünd Resultssgephaseuses 4.
  • the wall of the ignition guide housing 4 contains 6 openings in the area of the booster charge, which openings are not shown here.
  • Openings 2 are provided in the flame guide tube 1 and are located radially on a cross-sectional area of the flame guide tube 1.
  • a pair of such openings 2 is drawn in a cross-sectional area; however, several such openings can also be present in a cross-sectional area.
  • FIGS. 2 and 3 show a section through the plane A-B.
  • FIGS. 2 and 3 show a section through the plane A-B.
  • FIGS. 2 and 3 show two possible embodiments for the geometrical shape of the beads; it is only important that they protrude into the interior of the flame guide tube and are formed as depressions which become increasingly flatter towards the end of the flame guide tube 1.
  • the end of the flame guide tube 1 is designed as a cone 3.
