Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the field of all-electronic fuse technology, and more particularly to an all-electronic fuse for small-caliber ammunition. Background Technology
[0002] Future warfare demands increasingly higher reliability and safety from fuze systems. Inline fuzes, compared to traditional mechanical fuzes, utilize insensitive explosives instead of more sensitive detonators and employ high-voltage pulse power technology. They can be directly inserted into the main charge without any complex isolation components, thus fundamentally improving safety during processing and handling, and enabling reliable operation in strong electromagnetic environments. All-electronic safety fuzes are an emerging technology applied to military equipment fuzes. Due to their large size, they are currently only used in some large-caliber munitions. The size of all-electronic safety fuzes makes them difficult to fit into the requirements of small-caliber ammunition fuzes, thus greatly limiting their development in the field of military equipment.
[0003] Small-diameter all-electronic fuses are required to be φ30×50mm in size and meet the electromagnetic compatibility requirements of GJB151. They include an EMI filter module, an isolation DC-DC module, a safety control module, a high-voltage conversion and detonation module, an impact detonator, and a high-voltage connector.
[0004] The existing EMI filter module measures 25.4×25.4×16cm. 3 The power isolation module measures 25.4×25.4×12cm, while the power conversion module, safety control module, high-voltage conversion module, and high-voltage detonation module are φ35mm×25mm in size. The impact detonator assembly and connectors are φ12mm×23mm, which is insufficient to meet the size requirements of a fully electronic fuse for small-caliber ammunition.
[0005] A search revealed a Chinese patent application, CN109405677A, which discloses a fully electronic safety fuze. This fuze is divided into different functional modules, allowing for the replacement of any unsuitable modules during factory testing, achieving a miniaturized φ35mm×25mm design. However, the aforementioned patent's fully electronic safety fuze has the following shortcomings: the system does not consider electromagnetic compatibility and power module isolation requirements; furthermore, the detonator assembly occupies a significant portion of the fuze's length, failing to meet the requirements of small-caliber ammunition.
[0006] In addition, the patent with the patent application publication number CN107478112A discloses a high-reliability inline fuze and a control method thereof, which comprises a safety control assembly, a high-voltage initiation assembly and a pulse discharge circuit, and the safety control assembly is connected with two groups of high-voltage initiation assemblies in parallel. Through the double-redundancy design, the overall reliability of the inline fuze is improved. However, the inline fuze has a large size, and it is difficult to adapt to the size requirement of the fuze for small-caliber ammunition. SUMMARY
