Definitions

  • the invention relates to a cartridge with an unperforated ignition tube filled with ignition agent and protruding from the bottom of the cartridge sleeve following the primer up to the middle third of the length of the combustion chamber into the cartridge sleeve.
  • the propellant gradually burns through the primer from the bottom of the cartridge case to the projectile, which has the disadvantage that the combustion gases initially formed compress the propellant charge layers above them and thus make their combustion more difficult, so that they are more difficult to burn off compressed propellant charge is ejected with the projectile and therefore the full effectiveness of the propellant charge is not exploited.
  • the invention is therefore based on the object to remedy this deficiency and to create a cartridge of the type described, in which the largest possible burning or burning of the propellant is ensured with comparatively simple means.
  • the invention solves this problem in that in the propellant charge of the cartridge case in the extension of the metal ignition tube a channel reaching up to close to the projectile channel is left out and the ignition agent filling of the ignition tube ends at a distance from the ignition tube outlet.
  • the ignition means in the ignition tube can form a flash of flame, which can reach the projectile unhindered from the latter and practically simultaneously ignites the entire propellant surrounding the channel. Since the ignition tube is not perforated, the propellant immediately surrounding the ignition tube is not ignited immediately, but on the one hand this prevents a compressing gas pressure on the propellant layers above it and on the other hand does not accept any disadvantage because this propellant burns inside the cartridge case and not with it Projectile ejected from the sleeve becomes.
  • the distance between the end of the priming agent filling and the ignition tube outlet ensures the complete formation of the pilot or pilot flame in the channel.
  • the channel is formed by a tube, preferably made of combustible material, which is plugged onto the ignition tube and closed on the projectile side.
  • the drawing shows an embodiment of the parts of a cartridge essential to the invention in partial section.
  • the cartridge consists of a base piece 1 made of metal and a plastic sleeve 2 which carries the projectile 3 at the front.
  • a tube 7 made of combustible material is plugged onto this ignition tube 6, which is closed on the floor side and forms a channel 8 which extends from the ignition tube 6 to close to the floor 3 and is surrounded by the propellant charge 9.
  • the ignition means 5 in the ignition tube 6 ends at a distance from the ignition tube outlet 10.
  • a ring 11 is inserted in the base piece 1, on which the ignition tube 6 is supported and which forms the ignition channel from the primer 4.
  • the head piece 1 he saves the otherwise necessary manufacture of a shoulder that protrudes from both sides.
