VORRICHTUNG ZUR ABSCHWÄCHUNG DER SEITLICHEN DRUCKBELASTUNG BEIM ABLÖSEN EINES JETS, DIE AUF DIE DÜSE EINES RAKETENMOTORS EINWIRKT

The device has a control actuator (106) e.g. electrical type actuator, with ends (106a, 106b) hinged to a rocket and an anchor structure (104). A rigid connecting rod secured to ends (102a, 102b) of a strut (102) includes a tube presenting circumferential slots. A separating unit separates the rod from the ends of the strut when lateral forces acting on the actuator exceed a determined force threshold. The separating unit enables the strut to act as an element for limiting force peaks and dissipating residual kinetic energy when the forces acting on the actuator exceed the threshold.
