An all ballistic gas actuated ejector arrangement for aircraft store racks that are carried by military type aircraft and the like for releasably attaching to the aircraft stores, such as conventional or nuclear weapons, in which the ejector arrangement is duplicated in mirror image form at the usual fore and aft positions of the rack, with each ejector arrangment being in the form of an elongated housing with which the usual fore and aft sway braces are respectively integral, which ejector housing internally defines an elongate internal chamber in which are slidably mounted, in substantially telescoping coaxial relation with the housing, an outer piston and an inner piston, that in the dormant relation of the ejector are disposed within the ejector housing with like ends of same adjacent the open end of the ejector housing, with the rack ballistic gas being supplied to the other end of the housing, and the ejector outer piston having a ballistic gas receiving chamber and a valve arrangement for entrapping the gas therein for serving to both apply outward thrust to the store through the inner piston while providing cushioning for the inner piston thrust force that is applied to the store, when the ejector is ballistic gas actuated to thrust the store beyond the aircraft\s air stream envelope.

In a ballistic gas operated ejector mechanism for store rack assemblies for ejecting a store from aircraft in flight, and ballistic gas actuated from a ballistic gas supply source, said ejector mechanism comprising: a telescoping assembly including an elongate housing defining an upper end, and a lower end, and an internal chamber extending longitudinally thereof, and mounting in said chamber an outer tubular piston, and an inner piston within said outer piston, said housing chamber and said pistons having a telescoped substantially coaxial dormant relation, said pistons having like ends of same disposed adjacent said lower end of said housing in said dormant relation, and said pistons having the other ends thereof disposed above said like ends thereof in said dormant relation, said housing adjacent said upper end of same including an internal shoulder defining a seat, for said other end of said outer piston, said housing shoulder having an opening formed therein extending longitudinally of said housing, said outer piston at said other end thereof defining a stub portion proportioned for substantially complementary fit within said housing shoulder opening in said dormant relation of assembly, said housing defining, between said lower end of same and said shoulder, said internal chamber thereof, with said housing defining an internal chamber being proportioned for slidably mounting said outer piston therein for downward movement of same relative to said housing to extended relation with respect to said housing, said outer piston, between said ends thereof, defining an internal chamber proportioned for slidably mounting said inner piston therein for movement of same to extended relation with respect to said outer piston, said outer piston shiftably mounting a headed stem valve member in said stub portion thereof, and said outer piston stub portion defining a plurality of ballistic gas ports therethrough about said stem valve member, said headed stem valve member comprising a head portion and a stem portion, with said head portion of said valve member being disposed within said chamber of said outer piston for closing said outer piston ports when disposed against said outer piston stub portion, and said stem portion of said valve member projecting through said outer piston stub portion, said housing upper end being adapted to be connected to a source of ballistic gas and including means for exposing said outer piston stub portion to the ballistic gas when the source of the ballistic gas supplies the ballistic gas to said housing, said housing upper end including stop means for engaging said valve member stem portion for disposing said head portion thereof short of closure of said outer piston ports when said assembly is in said dormant relation, said valve member being proportioned for shifting said valve member to close said outer piston ports when said outer piston internal chamber is ballistic gas pressurized and said outer piston has sufficiently moved toward said extended relation thereof to separate said valve stem portion from said housing stop means, and including stops for precluding said pistons from moving away from said housing other end beyond their respective extended relations, whereby, on ballistic gas being admitted under pressure to said housing at said exposing means when said housing and said pistons are in said dormant relation, ballistic gas passes through said outer piston ports to bias said outer piston against said seat, thrust said inner piston to said extended relation thereof with respect to said outer piston, and pressurize said outer piston chamber, and when said inner piston reaches said extended relation thereof relative to said outer piston, said outer piston moves toward said extended relation thereof relative to said housing, to separate said valve member stem portion from said housing stop means and permit the ballistic gas pressure then in said outer piston chamber to bias said headed stem valve member to close said ports, for trapping ballistic gas under pressure in said outer piston chamber, whereby the trapped ballistic gas acts resiliently in compression, under the inertia of the store being ejected, to bias said inner piston to apply thrust to the store up to said extended relation of said outer piston with respect to said housing.
