ABSTRACT:
A device is disclosed for ejecting a store from an aircraft stores rack. The device comprises a tubular member having an internal bore along its longitudinal axis. A plurality of resilient lug retainer fingers are attached at one end of the tubular member and extend about and parallel to the longitudinal axis of the tubular member, movable from a first position, in engagement with a lug mounted on the store, to a second position, disengaged from the lug. A collar is mounted about the tubular member movable from a first position, wherein the collar holds the retaining fingers in engagement with the lug, to a second position, wherein the collar is disengaged from the retaining fingers. An ejector ram is mounted within the bore of the tubular member. An actuation system is provided which is adapted to first move the collar from the first to the second position and, afterwards, drive the ram into the lug causing the retaining fingers to move from the first to the second position, thus disengaging the retainer fingers from the lug, and forcibly ejecting the store from the aircraft.
