[0027] Referring to Figures 1 - 3 , the present application provides an igniter, including:
[0028] A grain section 100, the grain section 100 includes a grain shell 110, the first end of the grain shell 110 is open, the second end of the grain shell 110 is open, and a first flame spread grain 120, a delay grain 130, and a second flame spread grain 140 are sequentially filled in the grain shell 110; and
[0029] Firing section 200, the firing section 200 includes a firing cartridge case 210, the first end of the firing cartridge case 210 is sleeved inside the second end of the grain cartridge case 110, a percussion cap seat 260 is assembled inside the first end of the firing cartridge case 210, a percussion cap 270 is assembled inside the percussion cap seat 260, a firing pin 220 is movably installed inside the second end of the firing cartridge case 210, a pre-compressed firing pin spring 230 is sleeved on the firing pin 220, the first end of the firing pin 220 is used to fire the percussion cap 270, the second end of the firing pin 220 is connected with a lanyard assembly, pulling the lanyard assembly can drive the firing pin 220 to move and further compress the firing pin spring 230, and the lanyard assembly can be separated from the firing pin 220.
[0030] Specifically, referring to Figure 1 , the first end part of the grain cartridge case 110 is in a conical structure for convenient insertion into the solid rocket motor, the diameter of the second end of the grain cartridge case 110 is larger than that of the first end, a connection structure for connecting with the solid rocket motor should be provided on the outer wall of the grain cartridge case 110, the connection structure can be a threaded structure, an elastic clamping part structure or other quick connection structures existing in the prior art, and a corresponding connection structure is also provided inside the solid rocket motor to realize the quick connection between the igniter and the solid rocket motor.
[0031] During use, the grain section 100 of the igniter is inserted into the solid rocket motor, exposing the lanyard assembly, pulling the lanyard assembly makes the firing pin 220 move in the direction away from the percussion cap 270 and further compress the firing pin spring 230 at the same time. When the lanyard assembly is pulled a certain distance, that is, when the ball 223 in the pull cover 240 is pulled to the outside of the firing cartridge case 210, the ball 223 will fall off. After the ball 223 falls off, the lanyard assembly is separated from the firing pin 220. At this time, the firing pin 220 quickly moves towards the percussion cap 270 under the action of the firing pin spring 230 and impacts the percussion cap 270, the percussion cap 270 ignites and ignites the second flame spreading grain 140, the second flame spreading grain 140 ignites the delay grain 130, after a delay time of 5.5 - 9 seconds, the delay grain 130 ignites the first flame spreading grain 120 to realize the firing of the igniter. The igniter of the present application has a simple structure and high reliability: the reliability can reach 0.98 (confidence level 0.8). In addition, the igniter of the present application is convenient to use and does not require other equipment such as external power supplies and detonators, and can be fired immediately after installation. Referring to Figure 3, It can be understood that the lanyard assembly includes a pull cover 240. The first end of the pull cover 240 is movably sleeved on the firing pin 220 and the first end of the pull cover 240 is movably sleeved in the firing tube housing 210. A lanyard 250 is connected to the second end of the pull cover 240; a ring groove 222 is provided on the firing pin 220, and at least one perforation is correspondingly provided on the first end of the pull cover 240, and a detent ball 223 is assembled in the perforation and the ring groove 222.
[0032] Specifically, the first end of the firing pin 220 is in a sharp cone structure and can pierce through the primer 270. A retaining platform 221 is also provided at the first end of the firing pin 220. A retaining block 211 is provided inside the firing tube housing 210. The firing pin spring 230 is sleeved on the firing pin 220 and is stuck between the retaining platform 221 and the retaining block 211. When the firing pin 220 moves in a direction away from the primer 270, the firing pin spring 230 can be compressed. A snap ring 241 is provided on the pull cover 240. When the detent ball 223 is assembled in the ring groove 222 and the perforation, the pre-compression of the firing pin spring 230 can be realized, preventing the pull cover 240 and the firing pin 220 from separating due to reasons such as shaking. During use, the lanyard 250 is pulled, and the firing pin 220 is driven to move through the pull cover 240; the firing pin spring 230 is further compressed; when the pull cover 240 moves to the point where the perforation disengages from the firing tube housing 210, the detent ball 223 can disengage from the ring groove 222 and the perforation, so that the pull cover 240 is separated from the firing pin 220, and further the firing pin 220 can strike the primer 270 when the firing pin spring 230 releases elastic potential energy.
[0033] It can be understood that the connection between the pull cover 240 and the firing pin 220 can also adopt other connection methods of existing technologies. For example, a retaining pin can be provided on the firing pin 220, the retaining pin is inserted into the perforation, and a break can be provided on the retaining pin. When the lanyard 250 is pulled with a certain force, the retaining pin can be broken to separate the pull cover 240 from the firing pin 220.
[0034] Refer to Figure 3 , It can be understood that a sealing piece 280 is provided between the pull cover 240 and the firing tube housing 210.
[0035] Specifically, a snap ring 241 is provided on the pull cover 240, and the sealing piece 280 is provided between the snap ring 241 and the firing tube housing 210. By providing the sealing piece 280, the sealing performance inside the pull cover 240 and the firing tube housing 210 is ensured, preventing moisture from entering and causing the propellant column to fail.
[0036] It can be understood that the diameters of the first flame-expanding charge 120 and the second flame-expanding charge 140 are 4 ± 0.5 mm, and through holes are provided inside both of them; the diameter of the delay charge 130 is 4 ± 0.5 mm. Specifically, the main components of the first flame-expanding charge 120 and the second flame-expanding charge 140 are black powder, and a large amount of gas will be generated after combustion, resulting in an increase in pressure. By providing through holes, the gas can be quickly discharged, improving the delay stability; the main component of the delay charge 130 is black powder or pyrotechnic composition.
[0037] Referring to Figure 1 and 2 , it can be understood that the cartridge case 110 is provided with an exhaust hole 111 at the position of the second flame-expanding charge 140.
[0038] Specifically, by adding the exhaust hole 111 to the cartridge case 110, the influence of the gas pressure on the delay time of the delay charge 130 is reduced.
[0039] Referring to Figure 1 , it can be connected that a detachable sleeve 300 is sleeved outside the cartridge section 100. Specifically, by providing the detachable sleeve 300, it is used to protect the charges in the cartridge case 110 from being affected by moisture and becoming ineffective. Among them, the sleeve 300 and the cartridge case 110 can be connected by threaded connection, snap connection or other quick-detachable connection methods in the prior art.
[0040] Referring to Figure 1 , it can be understood that a sealing ring 310 is provided between the sleeve 300 and the cartridge case 110.
[0041] Specifically, by providing the sealing ring 310, the sealing performance between the sleeve 300 and the cartridge case 110 is further improved.
[0042] Referring to Figure 1 , it can be understood that a detachable protective cover 400 is sleeved outside the firing section 200. Specifically, by providing the protective cover 400, it is prevented that the pull-cord assembly is accidentally pulled to cause the igniter to fire, and at the same time, the sealing performance is improved. Among them, the protective cover 400 and the firing cartridge case 210 can be connected by threaded connection, snap connection or other quick-detachable connection methods in the prior art.
[0043] The above are only the preferred embodiments of the present application and are not used to limit the present application. For those skilled in the art, various changes and modifications can be made to the present application. Any modification, equivalent replacement, improvement, etc. made within the principle of the present application shall be included in the protection scope of the present application.
