摘要 |
The invention concerns a launch vehicle comprising a shroud (1a, 5a) supporting auxiliary propellers (2, 3) applying in operation excess flow of stresses to the shroud (1a, 5a), said device comprising means for coupling the payload (4) with the launch vehicle shroud. The invention is characterised in that the coupling means are designed to ensure a mechanical coupling between the payload (4) and the shroud along the direction of the launch vehicle longitudinal axis (X), and to cause them to be disengaged along radial and tangential directions. The invention is useful for neutralizing the effects on the payload of excess stresses applied on the launch vehicle shroud by the auxiliary propellers (2, 3).
