How does the Cart 84mm HEDP 502 become armed?
(long boy, sorry, probs gonna be a drop down boxy boy anyway)
(doesnt cover fuze mode selector if ya can’t remember read the topics)
1 - Arming achieved by aligning the rotor that contains the detonator. In the safe position the detonator is located 90° out of line relative to the ignition line.
2 - Rotor is locked by the rotor lock and driving plunger. The rotor lock is locked by the escapement locking pin, which is locked by the ball and detent pin
3 - The gas pressure in the barrel initiates the arming sequence by forcing the pressure plunger, located in the fuze holder, through the hole in the base disc located behind the detent pin.
4 - The pressure plunger moves the detent pin upwards allowing the ball to move aside, which releases the escapement locking pin.
5 - A combination of setback force and the escapement locking pin spring, force the escapement locking pin downwards releasing the escapement mechanism.
6 - The main spring then turns the rotor lock 180 degrees to the unlocked position.
7 - Concurrently with the unlocking of the escapement mechanism, the setback forces push the driving plunger downwards and release the spring loaded driving pin in the rotor.
8 - At this point the rotor lock has not yet completed its 180 degree movement and so the driving plunger is blocked against the pin as the rotor cannot be turned.
9 - Once the rotor lock movement is complete and the acceleration of the projectile ceases the plunger spring forces the plunger upwards, turning the rotor into the armed position.
10 - The movement of the rotor also frees the inertia pellet detent.
11 - The fuze is now armed, which occurs at a distance of somewhere between 12 and 40 metres from the muzzle.
