  • Publication number: 20210071976
    Abstract: A rocket motor ignitor assembly that may be used in a shoulder-fired rocket system. The rocket motor ignitor assembly may include a delay ignitor operable to ignite a rocket motor propellant, a stab firing pin operable to activate the delay ignitor by contacting the delay ignitor, and a biasing element coupled with the stab firing pin. The stab firing pin may have a length to diameter ratio greater than two, as well as relief grooves allowing air to vent past the stab firing pin as it travels toward the delay ignitor to activate it. The rocket motor ignitor assembly may also include a guide stop to limit penetration of the stab firing pin into the delay ignitor.
