A pyromechanical disconnecting device that includes a housing having a receiving space for an ignition element and a supporting floor. A disconnecting tool is disposed in the housing and movable along a path toward a disconnecting point of a current conductor rail. Also disposed in the housing is an ignition element adapted to propel the disconnecting tool along the path to sever the current conductor rail. The ignition element includes an end having a conical flank facing the supporting floor of the housing. An elastic sealing element is arranged about the conical flank and the supporting floor to act as an axial tolerance compensator between the ignition element and the supporting floor of the housing.

Housing configuration for a pyromechanical disconnecting device

A pyromechanical disconnecting device having an improved electric current conductor rail. The electric current conductor rail includes a center section perpendicular to the path of a disconnecting tool, and a first and second side section extending perpendicular from the center section. The electric current conductor rail further includes a first and second end piece connected respectively to the first and second side sections apart from the center section. Each of the end pieces is connected along a fold perpendicular to the center section and includes a bore for receiving a fastener to attach the electric current conductor rail to a housing.

Pyromechanical separating device with a specially shaped current conductor rail

The invention relates to a device for pyromechanical separation comprising a housing () and a conducting rail () which is arranged therein and embodied in such a way that it is separable at a separation point () by a separating tool () which is actuated by a propulsion pyrotechnical charge (). In order to protect said conducting rail against manipulations and ensure an unequivocal positioning, the conducting rail (), the propulsion charge () and the separating tool () are fixed in the housing () in an irremovable manner by a latch () which is inserted into the housing () and are nondetachably fixed thereto. Said latch () is also used as a support for the separating tool (), i.e. it comprises a cutting edge () along which said separating tool () cuts.
