ABSTRACT:
The invention relates to a system for firing a propellent charge by pyrotechnic transmission, comprising mechanical means of actuating a hammer, a primer cooperating with said hammer, and a propellent charge connected to the primer by pyrotechnical means and situated inside a firing tube.
The hammer and the primer are positioned excentrically with respect to the axis of the firing tube, and mechanical means, which cooperate with other mechanical means for actuating the hammer, are provided to break the pyrotechnic chain during storage and to cause the pyrotechnic chain to come in alignment when the hammer moves under the effect of the said mechanical means for actuating the hammer.
