METHOD TO DETERMINE CHARACTERISTICS OF FRAGMENT CLOUD OF PROJECTILE AND DEVICE FOR ITS IMPLEMENTATION Russian patent published in 2013 - IPC F42B35/00 

FIELD: weapons and ammunition.

SUBSTANCE: projectile is exploded on the trajectory of movement, and a fragment cloud of the projectile is formed, the number of projectile fragments is determined on the basis of analysis of the number of serially actuated sensitive elements of photodetector lines, coordinates of projectile fragments movement are determined on the basis of information on spatial positions of actuated sensitive elements of photodetector lines, the speed of projectile fragments motion is determined, geometric dimensions of projectile fragments are determined, the mass of fragments is determined, angles of fragments approaching to the target are determined, parameters of the impact wave are determined in close proximity from the target, the produced data is recorded into a memory unit, and data is transferred along a line of non-contact communication to a micro PC. The method is implemented with the help of a device comprising spaced sensors and measuring units with multiple logical elements OR and AND, with the help of which information on the completed test is processed and sent to the micro PC.

EFFECT: increased information value of tests.
