The invention discloses a fragile
front cover of a launch canister, a preparation method and a test
system comprising the fragile
front cover, the fragile
front cover comprises a cover body and a
flange part annularly arranged on the periphery of the cover body, at least three radial weakening grooves are formed in the front face of the cover body, an annular weakening groove is formed in the position, close to the edge, of the back face of the cover body, and the section of the annular weakening groove is in a single-slope
wedge shape. Comprising a vertical side wall and an inclined side wall, the vertical side wall is vertically connected with the end face of the
flange part, an angle a is formed between the inclined side wall and the end face of the
flange part, and the inclined side wall extends from the groove bottom of the annular weakening groove to the surface of the cover body and intersects with the vertical side wall to form a directional crack propagation area, so that cracks preferentially extend along the angle a under the
impact load effect. Through the design that the integrated
polyurethane foaming body is combined with the directional crack propagation area, the actually-measured
bursting force
peak value is smaller than or equal to 7 kN, and the low-
impact requirement of the
missile fairing is met. The radial weakening grooves in the front face and the wedge-shaped annular weakening grooves in the back face achieve the synergistic effect, so that the
maximum size of the fragments is far smaller than a safety threshold value.
