ABSTRACT:
For spinning up a gyroscope rotor, a motive power generating unit is used which contains a pyrotechnic gas-generating substance in the form of an azide composition. When electrically ignited, it produces a jet of filtered nitrogen gas which impacts on buckets in the periphery of the rotor and spins it up to speed. The gas generating unit can be used for generating motive power for other purposes.
