Abstract: The present invention relates to priming device for the explosive charge of a sub-munition scattered by a carrier, of the type incorporating a firing pin onto which a deployable drag ribbon has been attached, a primer able to be driven by a motor organ and a detonating primer to ignite the explosive charge. This device also comprises self-destruction means for the sub-munition operating after a predetermined delay, such means being activated by the extraction of a self-destruction lock. It is characterized in that the self-destruction lock is integral with the drag ribbon and is therefore extracted by the ribbon during its deployment.

Abstract: A system for attaching a priming system onto the body of a grenade, including a support integrally fastened to the grenade body and incorporating a thin cylindrical wall whose upper edge is crimped onto the priming system.

Abstract: The technical field of the invention relates to devices providing for the ejection of a plurality of payload elements from the casing of a carrier shell. The ejection device according to the invention includes a pyrotechnic composition placed in a head and intended to create, after ignition, a gas pressure that pushes a piston over a short distance so as to displace towards a base a moving assemblage having a pusher plate and payload elements, and to eject the base, the piston then being stopped relative to the head and having an orifice which allows the gases to pass towards the moving assemblage so as to push the latter. The device includes braking means disposed between at least a part of the moving assemblage and the shell casing. This invention is applicable to mine-dispersing carrier shells.
