Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 8
Claim 1
Independent Claim
78 words
A dosimeter capsule for indicating the condition of solid propellant including a chemical stabilizer, such as contained within a rocket motor or the like, comprising: a. a sealed expandable container; and b. a portion of said solid propellant sealed within said expandable container, said portion containing a smaller concentration of chemical stabilizer than that which characterizes the said solid propellant contained within said rocket motor, said portion sized to substantially fill the available volume of said expandable container.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim
78 words
A dosimeter capsule for indicating the condition of solid propellant including a chemical stabilizer, such as contained within a rocket motor or the like, comprising: a. a sealed expandable container; and b. a portion of said solid propellant sealed within said expandable container, said portion containing a smaller concentration of chemical stabilizer than that which characterizes the said solid propellant contained within said rocket motor, said portion sized to substantially fill the available volume of said expandable container.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim
20 words
The capsule as recited in claim 1 further comprising a layer of inert insulation surrounding said portion within said container.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim
57 words
The capsule as recited in claim 1 wherein said portion comprises a solid propellant selected from the group containing nitrate ester consisting of nitroglycerine, butane triol trinitrate, trimethylol ethane trinitrate, triethylene glycol dinitrate and cellulose nitrate, and a chemical stabilizer selected from a group consisting of methyl nitro aniline, 4-nitro diphenyl amine, 2-nitro diphenyl amine, and resorcinol.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim
86 words
In a rocket motor containing a solid propellant including a chemical stabilizer, said motor including means for indicating the condition of said propellant, an improvement wherein said indicating means comprises: a. a sealed expandable container disposed adjacent said motor; and b. a portion of said solid propellant sealed within said expandable container, said portion containing a smaller concentration of chemical stabilizer than that which characterizes said solid propellant contained within said rocket motor, said portion sized to substantially fill the available volume of said expandable container.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim
86 words
In a rocket motor containing a solid propellant including a chemical stabilizer, said motor including means for indicating the condition of said propellant, an improvement wherein said indicating means comprises: a. a sealed expandable container disposed adjacent said motor; and b. a portion of said solid propellant sealed within said expandable container, said portion containing a smaller concentration of chemical stabilizer than that which characterizes said solid propellant contained within said rocket motor, said portion sized to substantially fill the available volume of said expandable container.
Claim 7
Dependent Claim
20 words
The motor as recited in claim 4 further comprising a layer of inert insulation surrounding said portion within said container.
Claim 8
Dependent Claim
57 words
The motor as recited in claim 4 wherein said portion comprises a solid propellant selected from the group containing nitrate ester consisting of nitrogylcerine, butane triol trinitrate, trimethylol ethane trinitrate, triethylene glycol dinitrate and cellulose nitrate, and a chemical stabilizer selected from a group consisting of methyl nitro aniline, 4-nitro diphenyl amine, 2-nitro diphenyl amine, and resorcinol.
