SAFETY DEVICE FOR THE CONTAINER OF A FLYWHEEL MASS

摘要

The invention relates to a safety device for the container (15) of a flywheel mass (6), wherein the container is a vacuum container, wherein the safety device is arranged radially around the flywheel mass (6) between same and the inner wall of a housing for the container and prevents accelerated particles from exiting the housing in an uncontrolled manner, the safety device consisting of fins (5) arranged radially around the flywheel mass (6) between the inner wall of the outer vacuum container (15) and the flywheel mass (6), the fins being held between two cover rings (12) or segments (13) by a fixation element (1). The solution according to the invention has the advantage of integrating many different possibilities for energy dissipation of a projectile in one system. Another advantage is the highly modular structure, which makes it easy to interchange individual parts.
