ABSTRACT
A detachable proximity fuse adaptor for use with
the projectile having a percussion nose fuse. The adaptor
contains a proximity sensor, its control circuit board and
an electrical pressurized-gas capsule. Power for the
proximity sensor is provided by an electrolyte battery which
consists of a spaced electrode stack and an electrolyte
container. When the projectile is fired the resulting
forces move the electrode stack into the electrolyte container
thereby providing the necessary power for the proximity sensor.
When the sensor detects a target it ignites the pressurized-gas
capsule which, in turn, depresses the actuator member of the
conventional proximity fuse on the projectile. This adaptor
provides an economical solution to the problem of providing
proximity fuses when required on projectiles by using
projectiles already provided with less expensive percussion
fuses.
