Length Sensing Single Strand Shuttle Cutter Apparatus For Cutting Propellant Grain

View page
US Patent:
39690547, Jul 13, 1976
Filed:
Jul 11, 1975
Appl. No.:
5/595192
Inventors:
Asa E. Roane - Blacksburg VA
Assignee:
The United States of America as represented by the Secretary of the Army - Washington DC
International Classification:
B26D 320
B26D 512
B26D 538
US Classification:
425142
Abstract:
A length sensing photocell has its output connected to the input of a Scht trigger control circuit which alternately actuates solenoid pneumatic valves which in turn cause a cylinder operated single strand shuttle cutter to repetitively cut extruded lengths of grain propellants to a substantially uniform length independent of their rate of extrusion.

US Patent:
43291317, May 11, 1982
Filed:
Apr 28, 1980
Appl. No.:
6/144746
Inventors:
Asa E. Roane - Pulaski VA
Assignee:
The United States of America as represented by the Secretary of the Army - Washington DC
International Classification:
B22D 1101
US Classification:
425 6
Abstract:
Light emitting diodes (LED) are used in conjunction with phototransistors determine the liquid-solid state of a 0. 030-0. 040 inch film of trinitrotoluene (TNT). Liquid TNT is collected on the surface of a rotating drum, and is subsequently cooled to a solid film and removed by a "flaking" knife. The emitted beam from the LED is absorbed when the TNT is in the solid state and transmitted to and reflected from the drum surface when the TNT is in the liquid state. The relative intensity of the reflected beam is a measure of the state of the TNT.
