MULTIFUNCTIONAL COMPARTMENT TO SEPARATE PROJECTILES Russian patent published in 2012 - IPC F42B10/56 F42B15/36 

FIELD: weapons and ammunition.

SUBSTANCE: multifunctional compartment of projectile separation comprises a body, units to join a head part and an engine, fixation mechanisms, a system to stabilise a detached head part, units of separation, opening, initiation and actuation of head part actuators. The system to stabilise a detached head part has a jacket with a bottom. Units of separation, opening, initiation and actuation of actuators of the head part include powder charges, pistons and forcing elements. Fixation mechanisms of the stabilisation system are installed in head and tail parts of the jacket. Fixation mechanisms of the stabilisation system are arranged as adjacent telescopic guides. The separation unit is made as a central pipe fixed in the tail part of the jacket. The opening unit is arranged in the form of a gas-dynamic mechanism of a piston type. The initiation unit is arranged in the form of a double-channel safety-actuation mechanism fixed in the central pipe. The unit of actuation of actuators is arranged in the form of a working chamber placed in the zone of compartment coupling with the head part. The stabilisation system bottom is equipped with a transition shell and is rigidly connected with the head part bottom.

EFFECT: increased functions of a projectile separation compartment.
