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.
