Problems solved by technology

Obviously: this device for separating the fuze from the main body of the ammunition cannot be used to solve the problem addressed by the present invention: for fuzes whose status is unknown (that is, whether the fuze is in a safe state), this method is too risky
Finally, an important and difficult question: what to do with the mixture formed by the action of corrosive agents on the ammunition

Embodiment Construction

[0042] The device for destroying the fuze 2 mounted on the ammunition 1 comprises a chamber 5 closed by a cover 15 . The chamber 5, the cover 15 and the devices associated therewith must be resistant to possible corrosive vapors. The top cover 15 includes means 13 for creating a negative pressure in the chamber 5 in order to prevent gaseous emissions from escaping to the outside; the top cover acts as a suction hood. Optionally: the top cover 15 can seal the chamber 5 . The top cover includes means 17 for suctioning off gaseous emissions, which are stored in an auxiliary chamber 7 after being sucked out. The top cover includes handling means 19 whose dimensions match those of the top cover. Inside the chamber 5 is provided a tank 12 containing the liquid corrosive agent 6, the mixture resulting from performing the dissolution of the fuze 2, and any liquid or solid articles that are scattered from the ammunition 1 when the destruction of the fuze is performed (if holes in th...

Abstract

The invention concerns the field of ammunitions equipped with their rockets, found on the battlefield. Such ammunitions represent a major pyrotechnic risk. The problem consists in destroying the rocket so as to be able to dismantle said ammunition. The method consists in placing said ammunition (1) in a closed chamber (5) to carry out at least once the following cycle: depressurizing the chamber (5), dissolving the rocket (2) of the ammunition (1) with a liquid corrosive agent, drawing off the gaseous effluents towards an auxiliary chamber (7), reopening the chamber (5) after dissolving the rocket (2), removing the ammunition (1), recovering the mixture resulting from the attack of the rocket (2) by the liquid corrosive agent (6) and treating it by pyrolysis.

Description

technical field [0001] The field to which the present invention pertains is directed to ammunition found on the battlefield. In particular, the present invention relates to ammunition of various types which are either discarded, or fail to explode for various reasons after firing, and which ammunition has its own firing fuse. Background technique [0002] Ammunition consists of a metal casing which houses a primary charge which is explosive, smoking, flammable or chemical in nature. [0003] In order to ignite the main charge, the ammunition is equipped with a fuze consisting of: a firing device containing sensitive materials such as black powder and / or primary explosive; and a safety mechanism. According to the different types of the main charge, an explosive or dispersive booster charge is set between the main charge and the fuze. [0004] It is clear to those skilled in the art that the most sensitive part of the ammunition is the fuze. The fuze and main charge are pac...
