  • the case sleeve structure 102 undergoes dimensional deformation due to internal operating pressure and external forces.

Abstract

Cette invention se rapporte à un ensemble carter, qui comprend une structure de gaine de carter et une structure de fermeture terminale comportant une partie d'assemblage fixée à une région de surface de logement interne de la structure de gaine de carter au moyen d'un matériau adhésif. Cette partie d'assemblage est construite et disposée de façon à transférer les charges de fonctionnement longitudinales et radiales à partir du matériau adhésif jusqu'à la structure de fermeture terminale, rendant ainsi la fixation adhésive insensible aux pressions de fonctionnement internes élevées, sans qu'il soit nécessaire de recourir à des éléments de boulonnerie mécaniques supplémentaires. On peut charger cet ensemble carter de munitions muratisées ou dites à risques atténués (IM), en choisissant comme matériau adhésif un matériau ayant une température de transition vitreuse inférieure à la température d'auto-allumage de l'agent propulseur, et en excluant de cet ensemble carter tout élément de boulonnerie mécanique qui empêche la jointure entre la gaine et la fermeture de se défaire dans sa structure à une température inférieure à la température d'auto-allumage.
