Abstract (en)
The deployment mechanism for the fins (2a, 2b) of a projectile (1), which are held in their retracted positions by a single lock (5), has an actuator in the form of an inertial weight (14) that releases the lock when the projectile is fired. The lock is in the form of a pivoting star-wheel (6) with hooks (9a, 9b) on the ends of its arms to engage with slots (10b) in the retracted fins, with a spring that causes the star wheel to rotate and remove the hooks from the slots when it is released by the inertial weight, allowing the fins to deploy.
