The disclosure includes a sealed device having a seal around an internal chamber, the seal having at least two closed-loop portions through which a through element extends.

Device with sealed inner chamber

The invention relates to a cut-off device comprising: a conductive element and a movable piston, the piston being able to move between a first position in which the current passes in the conductive element and a second position in which the current is cut off, the piston being configured to break the conductive element when moving from its first position to its second position, the piston being positioned in a receiving cavity of a receiving element when said piston is in its second position,

Cut-off device with plasma chamber

A pyrotechnic cut-off device includes: a pyrotechnic igniter, a conductive portion and a movable piston, the piston being able to be displaced in a cavity along a direction of displacement following the actuation of the pyrotechnic igniter between a first position of passage of the current in the conductive portion and a second position of cut-off of the current, wherein the piston defines a first sealing portion having a narrowing of section along the direction of displacement, and the cavity has a wall defining a second sealing portion which extends on either side of the conductive portion and which has a narrowing of section along the direction of displacement, the first sealing portion being in contact with the second sealing portion along a contact surface extending on either side of the conductive portion when the piston is in the second position.

Pyrotechnic cut-off device

A pyrotechnic cut-off device to be connected to an electrical circuit to cut-off, includes a pyrotechnic initiator, a first and a second conductive portion each intended to be connected to the electrical circuit, the second portion being connected in parallel with the first portion and including two conductive elements separated by an insulating segment, at least one of the conductive elements provided with a first fuse element connected in series which is configured to trip when the intensity of the current passing therethrough exceeds a first predetermined value, and a first and a second insulating protrusion, each protruding from a lower face of a movable piston and the first and the second protrusions being located respectively in front of the first portion and the insulating segment. The pyrotechnic initiator is configured to switch the cut-off device from a first current passage configuration to a second current cut-off configuration.

Pyrotechnic switching device

A pyrotechnic circuit breaker ,comprising a body, an igniter, a piston a bus bar, wherein the piston comprises a cutting edge and is adapted to move along a normal direction from a raised position to a lowered position to cut a portion of the bus bar, thereby separating the bus bar into two distinct portions in order to break the electrical conduction of the bus bar.

Pyrotechnic circuit breaker having an improved structure for accommodating a bus bar, and assembly method thereof

A pyrotechnic gas generator for driving an actuator includes a body defining a combustion chamber housing a main pyrotechnic charge, and an ignitor for initiating combustion of the main pyrotechnic charge. The pyrotechnic gas generator includes at least one delay chamber adapted to communicate with the combustion chamber via at least one inlet orifice, and the delay chamber is provided with at least one outlet orifice for passing gas out from the gas generator. The at least one outlet orifice is provided with a seal adapted to pass from a closed state to an open state when the pressure inside the delay chamber reaches a rupture limit pressure.

Pyrotechnical gas generator

A normally closed electric switch having a sliding assembly that is actuated to open the switch, e.g. by a pyrotechnic gas generator. Prior to actuation, a conductive portion of the sliding assembly () is in tight contact with two rings () that are axially offset on the same axis, belonging respectively to two electrically conductive tabs (), and after the actuator has been triggered, the upstream tab () is separated from the conductive portion of the sliding assembly. According to the invention, sliding assembly comprises a tube split by a slot extending along its entire length, and the conductive portion of the sliding assembly is constituted by all or part of said split tube, the clamping force between the conductive portion and the primary electrically conductive tabs being provided by the resilience of the split tube.
