[0020] The following further describes the utility model with reference to the drawings and specific embodiments.
[0021] Embodiment 1
[0022] The ignition component includes an electrode plug 1, a heat sink 2, an insulating ring 3, a bridge 4 and a sealant. After applying the sealant on one side of the heat sink 2, it is inserted into the groove through the four pins 5 of the electrode plug 1. The pins 5 of the electrode plug 1 protruding above the heat sink 2 are ground flat. Two bridges 4 are respectively welded to the 4 pins 5 on the heat sink 2. After applying the sealant on the insulating ring 3, it is installed on the heat sink 2. The two bridges 4 are distributed in the middle of the holes on both sides of the insulating ring 3. As Figure 1 shown.
[0023] The electrode plug 1 is formed into a cone by four pins 5 and phenolic plastic 6 using a compression molding process. At the A end (input end) of the electrode plug, there are four conical phenolic plastic frustums, which are installed in two groups with misaligned positioning. The B end (output end) is designed in a groove shape. As Figure 2 shown.
[0024] The bridge 4 is designed in a "W" shape, with round dots at both ends for welding the pins 5, and the middle is designed in a narrow waist shape. As Figure 3 shown.
[0025] The overall design of the electrode plug 1 is conical, formed by four pins 5 and FQBD-12 phenolic plastic 6 using a compression molding process, with strong insulation performance, structural strength, and pressure-bearing capacity. At the A end (input end) of the electrode plug, there are four conical phenolic plastic frustums. During assembly, axial positioning of the electrode plug and the initiator housing is carried out, which has high process assembly performance and can also prevent accidental contact between the pins 5 and the initiator housing, isolating and protecting the pins 5 and the initiator housing, and ensuring the insulation performance between the bridge circuits of the electrode plug 1 and between the bridge circuit and the initiator housing; the B end (output end) of the electrode plug is designed in a groove shape, and the heat sink 2, insulation ring 3, and bridge 4 are assembled in the groove, making the overall mechanical structure of the firing assembly more reasonable and ensuring the stable insulation performance between the bridge circuit and the initiator housing at the same time.
[0026] The pins 5 are in the shape of round pins, with three raised φ2.5mm steps machined in the middle. The four pins 5 are designed to be installed in two groups with misaligned positioning, enhancing the contact strength between the pins and the FQBD-12 phenolic plastic 6, ensuring the structural integrity of the product, and avoiding the pins being ejected from the electrode plug by high-temperature and high-pressure gases generated after the product is charged and fired; the surface of the pins 5 is gold-plated, ensuring non-corrosion in harsh environments and ensuring reliable contact between the input end of the product and the power input plug of the weapon system. The FQBD-12 phenolic plastic 6 has the characteristics of corrosion resistance and high insulation performance, and can meet the use requirements of the product in environments such as humidity and heat.
[0027] Both the heat sink 2 and the insulation ring 3 are made of alumina A-95 ceramic by machining. The ceramic material has advantages such as good heat dissipation performance and high anti-static performance, which is beneficial to improving the non-firing reliability and anti-static ability of the product. The heat sink 2 is machined into a round plate shape with four round holes in the middle for being installed in the groove at the B end (output end) of the electrode plug.
[0028] The insulation ring 3 is machined into a round ring shape with a partition in the middle. The partition in the middle isolates the two bridges 4, improving the insulation strength and anti-static ability between the two bridge circuits of the product. At the same time, two independent firing units are formed, ensuring that when a firing current is input to any bridge circuit, the normal output function of the product can be realized. The parallel connection of the two bridges belongs to a redundant design and has high firing reliability.
[0029] The bridge 4 is made of high-resistance electrothermal alloy strip Cr20Ni80 material with corrosion resistance and stable performance. Its structure is designed in a "W" shape and is processed by precision wire cutting. The bridge is exquisitely designed and thin in thickness. The two end dots are welded to the pins 5 on the ceramic heat sink 2 by energy storage welding, having a large surface area and contact area with the heat sink 2, and thus having good heat dissipation performance. When stray current and other factors act on the product, the safety of the product is improved through the two end heat dissipation surfaces, meeting the requirement that the product does not ignite under 1A 1W for 5 minutes. The middle of the bridge 4 is designed in a narrow-waist shape. For a relatively large input power, electrical energy is converted into heat energy, and the temperature of the bridge 4 rises rapidly, which is conducive to heat concentration and igniting the agent inside the initiating insulation ring 3, having a high ignition sensitivity.
[0030] The sealant is prepared by mixing epoxy resin and polyamide resin in a ratio of 2:1. Epoxy resin sealant is applied to the bonding parts of the electrode plug 1, the heat sink 2 and the insulation ring 3 to integrate the three into a whole, ensuring that the initiating component can work reliably under harsh natural environments and severe mechanical environments.
[0031] After assembly, the resistance of any bridge circuit of the product is within the range of 1.0Ω ± 0.2Ω, and the insulation resistance between pins, between pins and the initiator housing is greater than 20MΩ (DC 500V), meeting the technical index requirements such as firing at 5A, action time less than 10ms, not igniting under 1A 1W for 5 minutes, anti-static of 25kV, withstanding large current of 22A, operating at high and low temperatures of -50°C to +60°C, electromagnetic compatibility, firing reliability of 0.9999, and long-term storage for 15 years.
[0032] Action process: When the working current is supplied to the product, the bridge inside the product converts electrical energy into heat energy, rapidly increasing the temperature of the agent around the bridge, igniting the agent, and igniting the next-stage charge or providing dynamic gas pressure for the actuating device.
