Abstract (en)

[origin: EP0308344A1] The closure comprises a plurality of elements (10) which are mounted between two upper (7) and lower (8) supporting members and which are capable of being deformed from an initial closing position by the gases generated during the ignition of the missile (2), characterised in that each element (10) of the closure is elastic and is deformed about at least one rounded part (19) formed on said lower member (8). The invention is used particularly for missile containers on board warships. <IMAGE>
