Abstract (en)

[origin: WO9420817A1] A device for locating submunitions within the casing of a projectile, consisting of evenly angularly spaced bars (9) each comprising a bearing surface (10) for engaging the inside of the casing (3) and two supporting surfaces (11a, 11b) for engaging at least two adjacent submunitions (2). The device is characterised in that each bar is divided into at least two bar portions (9a, 9b) in mutual contact at at least one sloping guide surface (30) whereby a relative sliding movement of each bar moves the two supporting surfaces (11a, 11b) away from each other in such a way as to eliminate the radial clearance between the submunitions (2) arranged within the casing (3). The device is suitable for locating anti-tank bomblets within an artillery carrier shell.
