Abstract (en)

[origin: EP0379417A1] The device comprises first and second means for attaching a submunition (5) to a plate (1) carried under a parachute, the first attachment means being formed by an arm (9) articulated on the plate (1) and the body of the munition (5), and the second attachment means having a structure with two positions in which the submunition (5) is respectively vertical or inclined, the structure also comprising a means for guiding the tilt between the two positions. <??>The first and second attachment means are arranged in such a way that the centre of gravity of the submunition (5) descends along a vertical line when the latter is tilting into the inclined position. <??>The device of the invention makes it possible to prevent the rocking occurring as a result of the tilting of the submunition into the inclined position, and it is simple and economical to produce. <IMAGE>
