AIRCRAFT EJECTION DEVICE Russian patent published in 2000 - IPC

FIELD: transportation and forced separation of rockets. SUBSTANCE: device has load-bearing body with rocket forced separation mechanism inside it; this mechanism is made in form of front and rear short-stroke piston-type pushers with mechanism for synchronization of operation of pushers, pyrotechnic drive, on-board electric connector for communication with rocket, indicator showing presence of rocket and electric automatic unit. Mechanism for securing the rocket in transportation position is mounted on pushers. Pyro drive is connected with rocket forced separation mechanism. On-board electric connector is fitted before front pusher. Body is made in form of detachable aerodynamic beam of rectangular section at height equal to calibre of rocket, width equal to 0.3 to 0.4 of its height and length equal to 1.8 to 2.0 of rocket suspension base. Front and rear parts of body are narrowed; they have leading and trailing edges formed by convergent side walls and inclined towards plane of body base. EFFECT: improved aerodynamic characteristics; enhanced stability of rocket separation in all modes of combat use of aircraft; extended range of positioning in aircraft; enhanced efficiency. 7 cl, 7 dwg
