METHOD OF BALLISTIC SOLID ROCKET PROPELLANTS Russian patent published in 2013 - IPC F42B33/06 C06B21/00 

FIELD: weapons and ammunition.

SUBSTANCE: cutting of charge fragment comprises displacing it through preset length, stopping it and cutting off by blade coupled with hydraulic cylinder piston. Piston continues lowering to press at charge fragments left after previous cycle on the grate. Piston extrudes said fragments through the grate to contact with said grate. Thereafter, it moves upward to initial position. Here, first fragment is completely separated and arranged between thrust and charge. In piston upward displacement, second fragment of the charge is cut off. Piston at crown, both fragments move down onto the grate. Then, cycle reiterates.

EFFECT: higher process efficiency.
