Abstract: The present disclosure relates to non-toxic smoke-producing compositions for producing colored smoke. In particular, the smoke-producing compositions are free from chlorinated compounds and organic dyes from the family of anthraquinones (or derivatives). The smoke-producing compositions can be used to produce pyrotechnic devices suitable for use in the military and civilian fields.

Abstract: The invention relates to a self-lighting device for a cigarette, comprising a primary chemical material (7) to be placed at the lighting end (4) of the cigarette (1); and a secondary chemical material (8) that is incompatible with the primary material (7), said primary and secondary materials being inflammable when they come into contact with each other. The device is characterized in that the secondary material (8) is arranged in a receptacle (9) designed to fit over the lighting end (4) of the cigarette (1), bringing the secondary material into contact with the primary material (7).

Abstract: The invention relates to a device for self-lighting of a cigarette (1), comprising a primary chemical material and a secondary chemical material, said chemical materials being incompatible and generating sufficient thermal energy to light the end (4) of said cigarette when they are in contact with one another, —the primary chemical material is placed in a capsule (70) intended to be fixed at the end to be lit (4) of the cigarette (1), —the secondary chemical material is disposed in a receptacle (80) designed to be positioned at the end to be lit (4) of the cigarette (1) in an arrangement that allows said secondary material to be brought into contact with the primary material, characterized in that: —the capsule (70) is made of an airtight and moisture-tight combustible material, said capsule having at least one puncturing zone, —the receptacle (80) incorporates a sealed container containing the secondary chemical material, said reservoir comprising a pointed end piece (82) the rigidity of which is sufficient

Abstract: The invention relates to a cigarette provided with a self-lighting device comprising: a primary chemical material (7) placed at the lighting end (4) of the cigarette (1), and a secondary chemical material (8) that is incompatible with the primary material (7), said primary and secondary materials being inflammable when they are in contact with each other. The secondary material (8) is contained in a receptacle (9) initially arranged at one of the ends of the cigarette, in an arrangement preventing said secondary material and said primary material (7) from coming into contact, and said receptacle is removable and configured in such a way as to be positioned against the end (4) to be lit, in an arrangement enabling the secondary material (8) to be brought into contact with the primary material (7), the receptacle being initially fixed to the end (5) opposing the end to be lit (4).

Abstract: The invention concerns a device forming a mechanism, in particular for use in the space industry, characterised in that it comprises in combination: two structural elements (100, 200) capable of relative displacement, locking means (300) adapted to prevent initially the relative displacement between the two structural elements (100, 200), and means (400) for controlled locking of the locking means (300) designed to prevent initially the release thereof, then when activated, successively, in a first phase, a sliding action in controlled amplitude of the locking means (300), for limited release between the two structural elements (100, 200), then in a second phase, complete release of the locking means (300) and hence of the structural elements (100, 200).

Abstract: The invention concerns a device forming a mechanism, in particular for use in the space sector, characterised in that it comprises in combination: a material (300) with low melting point capable of producing a soldering joint, at least heating means (400), a structure having an architecture with a zone blocked by the low melting point material (300), capable of being released by liquefying the low melting point material, and means for forced rolling of the low melting point metal (300) in liquid state, after the heating means (400) have been activated, to produce a shock absorbing function.
