ABSTRACT:
A safe and arm device is responsive to electrical signals by way of two solenoids that push and pull, respectively, an arm to rotate, in turn, each of a series of three cogwheels by steps. When each of the cogwheels has been rotated a given number of steps prescribed by a secret code, slots or cutouts in each of the cogwheels are aligned to permit passage therethrough of an elongated bar or rack that can then operate or enable a switch or other mechanism to fire a rocket motor, etc.
