Abstract:
Missile balancing assemblies include two balancing rings configured for mounting on a missile, each balancing ring having a ballast. Each balancing ring is configured to be rotated and rotationally fixed, and may include materials having different densities at different locations. Each balancing ring may further include an angular graduation.
Abstract:
The invention relates to a linking device having a bearing and a weapons system comprising such a device. The aim of the device is to adjust the rotational resisting torque of two coaxial cylindrical parts (8, 10) which are rotatable relative to one another about a shared axis (A). According to the invention, said bearing (21) includes two rings (23, 24) made of a resiliently deformable material, capable of respectively engaging with the two cylindrical portions (8, 10), and between which rolling elements (25) are arranged such as to be in contact with raceways of said rings, said device comprising a controllable member (22) for adjusting the tightening of the rings, capable of engaging with one of said parts in order to engage with said bearing.
