Russian ML-8

Mina is intended for use as an anti-handling device for anti, anti, anti, object and other mines have not own such a device.In addition, the mine can be used as booby traps discharge actions placed under the various items of military goods (weapons, military equipment, etc.).When used as an anti-handling device mine ML-8 is installed under the bottom of landmines push action PMN, PMN-2, PMN-3, PMN-4, MIT-6m, shrapnel OZM-72 anti-tank mines Series TM-62 or similar and when trying to remove an anti-or anti-tank mines from the site is a mine explosion ML-8, hitting deminers opponent. Thus there and knock, or the destruction of mines, under which the mine is set a trap ..When used as a booby-trap ML-8 is installed on the ground so that it could not be seen (such as in an open well), but it fits the subject, which is sure to arouse the interest of the enemy and induce him to pick up or use it. (Weapons, household items, etc.) In this case, the defeat of the personnel of the force applied by the explosion (high-explosive effect).Mine body (11) plastic, rectangular, serves to accommodate the explosive charge and the fuse. The main body by means of two pins mounted freely rotatable target sensor cover. Safety fuse type, the discharge action, the body of which (8) includes: Trigger the pyrotechnic moderator, cocking mechanism, safety adapter and slam-detonating mechanism. Trigger mechanism is designed to ensure the safety fuse in the transport position and transfer it in the firing position. Trigger mechanism comprises: a central hub (1), a nut (18) with nylon filament (6) and plate (7). The central hub mounted hammer (3), the spring (2), the ball (4), the strip (5) and the igniter capsule (23).The hammer is held in the transport position, the ball (4) located in the bore sleeve () 1. Hull closed with a ball plate (5) held by a nylon filament (6) wound thereon and a sleeve having three rows and a length of 0.8 m By nylon yarn pad and ball, spring-loaded firing pin is held in the cocked position. One end is rigidly fixed to the thread nut (18) of the actuator mechanism, the other end of the loop is engaged in the plate (7).The plate is secured in the sleeve (1) with the ability to save it 90 degrees if the cord pull.For transport the plate closes off the passage of the primer for igniting the pyrotechnic composition of the moderator and releases the channel, turning 90 degrees when you remove the thread after installing mine.Pyrotechnic retarder provides a temperature range from - 40 to +50 degrees fuse arming after 120 ... 150 seconds after start-up and serves as a mechanism for long-cocking.It consists of a ring (9) is pressed in the channels igniter compositions CC-1, B-II and zamedlitelny composition TMC-06.Cocking mechanism is designed to transfer the mines in the firing position after a long charging time. It consists of a sleeve (10) with two cylindrical channels. In the central channel molded part being pyrotechnic stop (24), the adjacent channel - pyrotechnic delay composition (25) from burning time 2.Safety adapter permits operation of mines ML-8 while trying to clear a set on her subject (mines). It consists of a spring-loaded hammer (13), the central shaft (12), spring (14), spring-loaded rod (26) retaining the engine (15) in the transport position, fighting the stem (34), the adjusting screw is rigidly connected to the rod (34) , coil, ring, sensor cap purpose.Slam-detonating mechanism is designed to provide fire-break goals mines in the transport position. It includes a guide sleeve (28), the engine (15) with detonator cap CD-H-10 (16), a spring (27), the support washer (29) with a bore and a detonator (17) of the heater 4, the weight explosive charge (22) is composed of checkers PVV-5A weighing 80 g, located in the lateral body seat mines. Charge closed plastic cover having their slots engaged with protrusions housing.Principle of operation.When the sensor cap on mining purposes mines ML-8 set miniruemy thing (mine explosive charge, the subject of military goods). To translate mines from transport to combat necessary to turn the nut (18) and remove the trigger out of the mines Nylon thread (6) all the way. When removing the thread is 90 degrees turn plate (7) and the release channel between the igniter HF-H-1 (23) and the pyrotechnic retarder ring (9). Field thread removal hammer (3) by a spring (2) pushes the ball (4) in the sleeve opening (1), displacing the cover (5) and the pins the igniter capsule (23). Force fire from the KV-N-1 moves the igniter composition pyrotechnic delay in the ring (9), and after his burning ignited pyrotechnics stop (24) and the moderator (25).After burning pyrotechnic stop the central shaft (12) by a spring (14) moving, free fighting stock, which abuts the adjusting screw in the sensor cap purposes. After burning retarder (25) spring-loaded rod (26) moving, release the engine (15) with primer-primer (16). The engine is under the action of the spring (27) is moved completely into the housing wall, and a detonator cap becomes aligned with the hammer (13), opposite the hole in the washer (29) and detonator (17).Mina ML-8 translates into firing position.When lifting the item miniruemogo 8 ... 10 mm above the mine-trap combat rod under the action of the spring lifts the lid and target sensor, moving, release the hammer (13). Drummer by spring pins the blasting cap (16), causing an explosion of the detonator (17) and the explosive charge (22) mines. Explosion of the explosive charge mines ML-8, in turn, causes disruption mines, which was set booby trap or defeat a man conveying miniruemy subject.The performance characteristics of mines ML-8Type of mine ................................................ ..................... high-explosive booby trap discharge actionWeight mines ................................................ ................. 370gr.Weight of explosive charge (PVV) ............................................ ... 80g.Length ................................................. .......................... 11.4sm.Width ................................................. ....................... 6.0sm.Height ................................................. ......................... 4.0 cmMinimum weight of the load .................................... 250g.The course aims to cover the sensor response ........... 8-10 mm.Type of target sensor ............................................... .......... mechanical unloadingDimensions of the sensor target ............................................... .. 7 x 3 cm.The transfer to the firing position ......................... 2-2.5 min.Temperature range ..................... -40 - +50 DegreesType of long-cocking mechanism .......................... pyrotechnicFuse ................................................. ................... own mechanicalObezvrezhivaemost ................................................. .... neobezvrezhivaemayaRecoverability ................................................. .............

Since pulling a nylon filament to the moment of the fuse cocked runs 2 - 2.5 minutes, which time does not depend on the temperature.Before installing the mines ML-8 need to check whether she mechanical damage and make sure you have the nuts trigger. To install the mines ML-8 with the mine PMN (PMN-2, PMN-3, PMN-4) must:· Open a hole in the ground;· Prepare a mine PMN (PMN-2, PMN-3, PMN-4) to be used in accordance with the instruction of the material and application;· Set the trigger nut and pulling it to pull Nylon thread 20 cm beyond the hole, pour and seal the soil up to the level cap mines ML-8;· Set to cover target sensor mines ML-8 mine PMN (PMN-2, PMN-3, PMN-4), and make close fitting lid to PMN mines mines ML-8;· Holding mine PMN (NAM-2, PMN-3, PMN-4) with one hand and with the other hand to pull her check;· Disguise mines;· Pull the trigger nut and pull out the entire length of Nylon thread mines ML-8, then removed from the site;· Pass the commander of the nut with nylon thread mines ML-8 and the safety pin mines PMN (PMN-2, PMN-3, PMN-4).Since pulling a nylon thread of ML-8 reverse transfer it to a safe position possible. When the time delay ML-8 is sure to become cocked. If, at this point it will not load, the ML-8 samoneytralizuetsya. The fact that after working long charging time pyrotechnic release combat stopper rod, which from this moment only keeps the hammer due to the fact that it presses the sensor cover purpose. If there is no load, the cover turns and lifts fighting rod that releases the hammer. Drummer goes ahead and blocks the movement of the engine with a primer that is realized only after 2 seconds after the pyrotechnic release the stopper rod battle. This is done to avoid triggering ML-8 if it was installed incorrectly (ie, was not loaded at the time of installation) or if she was treated correctly. That is, ML-8, is shown in the deployed position with no load on it unusable.The minimum weight of the load shall be not less than 250g. Explosion ML-8 is, the displacement of cargo up to 8-10 mm.Booby traps ML-8, pre-arranged in styrofoam inserts and sealing plastic bags are packed in wooden boxes with 32 pieces. in the box. On the right end wall of the drawer marked with the following content:* Label goods,* Classification code - 1.2* Index of mines and the number of mines in a box,* The total mass m of package (Gross kg)* Inscription "Before aviatransportirovaniem pin to pierce the bag through the hole,"* BB code.On the cover of the box is applied in the triangle conventional number of dangerous goods - "223".To train personnel mines using ML-8, there are practical booby traps MI-ML-8. Practical mine MI-ML-8 is similar to the booby-trap device ML-8 except for the firing circuit, and in protecting and detonating mechanism instead of the detonator cap is installed in the engine fuse head HF-H-1, but instead of a detonator and explosive charge - inert substance - a simulator. All operations for the preparation and installation of mines MI-ML-8 similar to the operations to install booby traps ML-8. When triggered mines MI-ML-8 audible only cotton fuse head HF-H-1. On the packaging for practical booby traps MI-ML-8 applied in the triangle conventional number of dangerous cargo "430" class 1.
