CLUSTER FOR REMOTE MINE LAYING Russian patent published in 2006 - IPC F42B12/58 

FIELD: ammunition, in particular, clusters for remote mine laying of zone with shaped-charge anti-tank mines.

SUBSTANCE: the cluster has a cylindrical sleeve, cover, piston with an ejection charge, electric primer and anti-tank shaped-charge mines, lengthed semicylinder-shaped, fixed in one row inside the cylindrical sleeve. A folding spring-loaded orientting device-stabilizer is fastened on the plane side of each mine, and a blasting device is installed on one of the end faces of the shaped-charge mine, the blasting device has a cocking component in the form of a thermobaric sensor, mechanical stage of protection in the form of a spring-loaded lock and an electric-type time self-destruction device connected to the contact pads on the body of the blasting device. The shaped-charge anti-tank mines are oriented to one another by their plane sides with a gap between them providing for mutual clamping by the plane sides of the devices-stabilizers. Segments of a split ring are installed without any radial clearances between the spring-loaded locks of the mechanical stage of protection of the blastic devices and the sleeve wall, the segments hold these locks in the initial contracted state until the mines leave the cylindrical sleeve. Processing grooves are made on the ends of the mentioned segments of the split ring, they are used for installation in them during assembly of the cluster of forked cotter pins projecting from the sleeves after they are fastened in the processing grooves of the segments of the split ring. Spring-loaded electric contacts, resting at the respective contact pads on the body of the blasting device and connected to the electric connector installed on the outer side of the cover, are installed in the piston projecting from it.

EFFECT: provided uniform distribution of the anti-tank mines.
