<p>The disclosure relates to a linear fire distinguisher (12) containing superpressurized Halon (22) in a cylindrical container (17) which is cut by an explosive linear shaped charge (23) contained in an overall housing (16). The latter prevents fragments from escaping and, diverts the outflow of extinguishant (22) to provide an equal and opposite reaction force to the momentum force of the outflow. In addition, the diversion occurs through apertures (36) in the housing to opposed paths in directions substantially perpendicular to the reaction forces again to nullify any forces due to this perpendicular outflow. The invention is also applicable to other container configurations where a high impulse force might occur. <IMAGE> <IMAGE></p> |
