RAIL CONDUCTION ELECTROMAGNETIC ACCELERATOR OF SOLIDS Russian patent published in 1995 - IPC

FIELD: accelerating equipment. SUBSTANCE: two inductively coupled electric circuits are placed into power form and are insulated from it in rail conduction electromagnetic accelerator of solids. Internal electric circuit is formed by pair of electrodes 1 positioned longitudinally and current armature 2. Electrodes 1 are connected to power supply system 10 with output part of accelerator which ensures prevention of formation of parasitic electric arcs in trail of current armature and removal of limiting for time of electromagnetic acceleration. External electric circuit is formed by electrodes 4 and short-circuiting jumper 6 shorting electrodes in output part of accelerator. Electrodes 4 of external circuit are linked to power supply system 9 from input part of accelerator. EFFECT: increased velocity of throwing of solids. 2 dwg
