Reel of fibre for communicating between an aircraft (9) and a ground station, the core (1) around which the wire (2) is wound being terminated by a collar (12) on which the ends of the layers of wire bear. Loss of cohesion by shifting of the coil is prevented; the cap (4) surrounding the coil is mounted so as to rotate (15) in order to reduce the friction which it exerts on the portion (14) of the fibre during paying-out which whips against it. Application to guiding aircraft and missiles.

Description

BOBINE DE FIL DE COMMUNICATION ENTRE UN AERONEF ET UNE
STATION AU SOL
DESCRIPTION
L'invention concerne une bobine de fil de communication entre un aéronef et une station au sol.
COMMUNICATION WIRE COIL BETWEEN AN AIRCRAFT AND A
GROUND STATION
DESCRIPTION
The invention relates to a coil of communication wire between an aircraft and a ground station.

De telles bobines sont destinées à la transmission de messages entre la station et aéronef et peuvent être utilisées en particulier pour guider les missiles. Un conception connue est illustrée aux figures 1 et 2. Elle comprend essentiellement un noyau 1 cylindrique et fixé à une armature non représentée de l'aéronef par une extrémité, libre à llautre extrémité et autour de laquelle le fil, généralement une fibre 2 optique, est enroulé en spires 3 jointives et superposées. Un capot 4 également fixé à llarmature de aéronef et de forme sensiblement cylindrique entoure le noyau 1 et la fibre 2 ; il est toutefois muni d'un col 5 rétréci à son extrémité libre pour délimiter une ouverture 6 par laquelle une partie libre 7 de la fibre 2 est reliée à la station au sol.Cette station est schématisée par 8 et l'aéronef par 9. Such coils are intended for the transmission of messages between the station and aircraft and can be used in particular to guide the missiles. A known design is illustrated in FIGS. 1 and 2. It essentially comprises a cylindrical core 1 and fixed to an armature not shown of the aircraft by one end, free at the other end and around which the wire, generally an optical fiber 2, is wound in 3 contiguous and superimposed turns. A cover 4 also fixed to the aircraft frame and of substantially cylindrical shape surrounds the core 1 and the fiber 2; it is however provided with a neck 5 narrowed at its free end to delimit an opening 6 through which a free part 7 of the fiber 2 is connected to the ground station. This station is shown diagrammatically by 8 and the aircraft by 9.

La force de traction que la partie libre 7 subit se transforme dans la spire 3 qui est dévidée en une force axiale ou latérale qui est transmise aux spires 3 sur lesquelles cette spire 3 en dévidage s'appuie, Cette force est suffisamment importante, grâce aux frottements qui s'exercent, pour faire riper en glissant sur le noyau 1 les spires 3 des couches sous-jacentes d'appui situées vers l'ouverture 6, avec une décohésion du bobinage qui peut conduire à llemmêlement de la fibre 2 et à sa rupture. The tensile force which the free part 7 undergoes is transformed in the coil 3 which is unwound into an axial or lateral force which is transmitted to the coils 3 on which this coiling coil 3 is supported. This force is sufficiently large, thanks to the friction which is exerted, to make slip by sliding on the core 1 the turns 3 of the underlying support layers situated towards the opening 6, with a decohesion of the winding which can lead to the tangling of the fiber 2 and to its rupture.

Clest pourquoi, comme on le voit bien à la figure 2, chaque couche 10 de spires 3 déborde de celle qui la surmonte et llentoure dlune longueur libre 11 composée de trois spires 3 découvertes en plus de la spire 3 à demi-découverte sur laquelle la spire 3 extrême de la couche 10 supérieure s'appuie. La pente a de ce bobinage vers llouverture 6 est alors de 160 en moyenne, de sorte qu'un volume important, délimité par les traits mixtes sur la figure 1 et égal à un ou deux dixièmes du volume total du bobinage, est perdu ainsi qu'une longueur correspondante de fibre et de portée de communication. This is why, as can be seen in FIG. 2, each layer 10 of turns 3 overflows from that which surmounts it and surrounds it with a free length 11 composed of three turns 3 discovered in addition to the half-discovered turn 3 on which the turn 3 extreme of the upper layer 10 builds. The slope a of this winding towards the opening 6 is then 160 on average, so that a large volume, delimited by the dashed lines in FIG. 1 and equal to one or two tenths of the total volume of the winding, is lost as well as 'a corresponding length of fiber and communication range.

Le but de llinvention est de fournir une bobine où la fibre 2 peut être rangée sans ce gaspillage de volume. La bobine conforme à llinvention est caractérisée sous sa forme la plus générale par un noyau cylindrique voire légèrement conique autour duquel le fil est enroulé en spires superposées, et de plus le noyau s évase en collerette conique recouvrant les spires du côté de dévidage du fil. The object of the invention is to provide a reel where the fiber 2 can be stored without this waste of volume. The coil according to the invention is characterized in its most general form by a cylindrical or even slightly conical core around which the wire is wound in superimposed turns, and moreover the core flares in a conical collar covering the turns on the wire unwinding side.

On va maintenant décrire l'invention plus précisément à l'aide des figures suivantes annexées à titre illustratif et non limitatif - les figures 1 et 2, déjà décrites, illustrent
respectivement une bobine de l'art antérieur et un
détail de l'extrémité du bobinage du côté libre, - les figures 3 et 4 sont similaires aux figures 1 et 2
mais représentent une réalisation de llinvention.
The invention will now be described more precisely with the aid of the following figures which are annexed by way of nonlimiting illustration - FIGS. 1 and 2, already described, illustrate
respectively a coil of the prior art and a
detail of the end of the winding on the free side, - Figures 3 and 4 are similar to Figures 1 and 2
but represent an embodiment of the invention.

Les références des figures 3 et 4 qui sont semblables à celles des figures précédentes désignent des éléments semblables ou analogues de sorte que leur description ne sera pas répétée. Cependant, le noyau 1 est terminé du côté de llouverture 6 par une collerette 12 évasée et conique dont l'angle dlouverture ss, mesuré sur la face intérieure orientée vers le noyau 1, est de 1200 environ et masque de llouverture 6 les couches 10 de spires 3, qui peuvent maintenant s'étendre sur toute la longueur du noyau 1 et jusqu'à la collerette 12, comme on le voit bien en particulier sur la figure 4 llangle ss de conicité de 1200 permet que les couches 10 débordent les unes sur les autres par une spire extrême qui touche la collerette 12 par un point de contact latéral 13. On conçoit que la cohésion des couches 10 est excellente et que tout risque de ripage est supprimé.On n'est donc plus contraint à laisser un volume inoccupé comme dans llart antérieur, et le bobinage est bien plus facilement réalisé. Li appui des spires 3 extrêmes sur la collerette 12 autorise même à augmenter le nombre de couche 10, car lleffort radial de compression exercé par les couches extérieures est compensé par une réaction axiale de la collerette 12 qui 5oppose à l'écrasement du bobinage sur le noyau 1 et à 1' emmêlement des spires 3 de couches 10 différentes. Des angles ss de conicité moins importants que 1200 peuvent aussi être choisis. The references of FIGS. 3 and 4 which are similar to those of the preceding figures designate similar or analogous elements so that their description will not be repeated. However, the core 1 is terminated on the side of the opening 6 by a flared and conical flange 12 whose opening angle ss, measured on the inner face facing the core 1, is approximately 1200 and masks the opening 6 the layers 10 of turns 3, which can now extend over the entire length of the core 1 and up to the flange 12, as can be seen in particular in FIG. 4 The angle ss of taper of 1200 allows the layers 10 to overlap the others by an extreme turn which touches the flange 12 by a lateral contact point 13. It is understood that the cohesion of the layers 10 is excellent and that any risk of skidding is eliminated. We are therefore no longer forced to leave an unoccupied volume as in the prior art, and the winding is much more easily achieved. The support of the extreme turns 3 on the flange 12 even allows the number of layers 10 to be increased, because the radial compression force exerted by the outer layers is compensated by an axial reaction of the flange 12 which opposes the crushing of the winding on the core 1 and with the tangling of turns 3 of different layers 10. Conical angles ss less than 1200 can also be chosen.

Comme la partie libre 7 de la fibre 2 est soumise à des forces centrifuges qui font gonfler les spires 3 au moment du dévidage, elle fouette la face interne du capot 4 et frotte sur elle par une portion en cours de dévidage 14 (du jeu a été dessiné à la figure 3 pour la clarté du dessin). Il est possible de limiter ces frottements néfastes si le capot 4 n'est plus solidaire de llarmature de l'aéronef 9 mais monté tournant librement par rapport à lui. En pratique, un roulement 15 est disposé entre l'extrémité du capot 4 opposée au col 5 et le bord encastré 16 du noyau 1. La rotation du capot 4 est ainsi assurée. As the free part 7 of the fiber 2 is subjected to centrifugal forces which cause the turns 3 to swell at the time of reeling, it whips the internal face of the cover 4 and rubs on it with a portion during reeling 14 (of the play a been drawn in Figure 3 for clarity of the drawing). It is possible to limit this harmful friction if the cover 4 is no longer secured to the frame of the aircraft 9 but mounted to rotate freely with respect to it. In practice, a bearing 15 is disposed between the end of the cover 4 opposite the neck 5 and the recessed edge 16 of the core 1. The rotation of the cover 4 is thus ensured.

On remarquera que le bord encastré 16 comprend une collerette symétrique de la collerette 12 et qui a la même fonction de soutien d'une extrémité des couches 10.  It will be noted that the embedded edge 16 comprises a symmetrical collar of the collar 12 and which has the same function of supporting one end of the layers 10.
