Abstract (en)

[origin: EP0318997A2] A safety device for a pyrotechnic self-destruction fuse for bomblets guarantees, when the safety removal criteria function normally, that the safety device is removed from a percussion stud (23) of a pyrotechnic delay device (25, 26) in dependence on the safety removal movement of the striking pin (12). Should the bomblet (1) fail to perform its impact function, this delay device at all events ignites the detonator (20), so that either the bomblet (1) is destroyed by means of an explosive charge (3) or at least the highly sensitive detonator (20) is eliminated. Dangerous bomblet misfires therefore no longer occur. <IMAGE>
