ABSTRACT:
A missile security mechanism comprises a sliding rod having two axially spaced-apart grooves, a socket slidably mounted on the rod and having hooks able to engage in one of these grooves then the other, and an inertia-block in the form of a sleeve surrounding and locking the hooks in the groove in which they are engaged. The inertia-block is displaceable by inertia against the action of a biasing spring to free the hooks. A second spring biases the rod towards the socket, the rod being held by a pawl which is movable to free the rod in response to a given displacement of the inertia-block.
