DEVICE FOR UNFOLDING OF FLEXIBLE ELEMENT Russian patent published in 2001 - IPC

FIELD: test facilities. SUBSTANCE: the device has a jet projectile on a guide and a flexible element connected to its tail section. The guide is installed vertically. The flexible element consists of two packings connected to the projectile symmetrically to its longitudinal axis and positioned in a wave-like manner on the launching site. Each packing is laid symmetrically to the projectile longitudinal axis to a length of the flexible element from the point of its connection to the projectile of at least 40 amplitudes of the waves of packing. EFFECT: simplified design, vertical unfolding of the flexible element of the preset running mass is ensured. 2 dwg
