摘要:
A high impulse fuze booster includes a booster explosive charge positioned within an explosive charge cavity of a booster housing. A substantially planar flyer plate is coupled with the booster housing, and a detonation waveshaper is positioned within the booster explosive charge. A low-sensitivity explosive charge is opposed to the substantially planar flyer plate. The booster explosive charge is configured to generate a detonation wave and the detonation waveshaper shapes the detonation wave into a planar detonation wave, the planar detonation wave is parallel to the substantially planar flyer plate. The planar detonation wave interacts with the substantially planar flyer plate in two or more stages including a planar striking stage and a planar contact stage where the planar detonation wave carries the substantially planar flyer plate into planar contact with a plurality of surfaces of the low-sensitivity explosive charge to initiate the low-sensitivity explosive charge.
摘要:
An explosive fusecord comprising a core of explosive material surrounded by at least two layers of wrapping material, two adjacent layers being bonded together by an intermediate layer of waterproof hot-melt adhesive material which is preferably a blend of polymeric film former and a tackifying resin. The fusecord is especially useful as an energy source for seismic prospecting .
摘要:
A detonation device and method for making the same for use in explosive hook-up systems of the type having interconnected trunk and down lines. A core of pentaerythritol tetranitrate is compounded and constructed to substantially reduce detonation cutoffs when the lines are connected at an acute angle with respect to one another, particularly in the low grain load sizes.

摘要:
The present invention is an improved waterproof quick match and apparatus and method of making same in which the loose fitting central core (fuse) covering is made of a plastic coated paper and heat sealed at the seams in a waterproof relationship.
摘要:
An improved low-energy detonating cord, which is light-weight, flexible, strong, and non-conductive, detonates at high velocity, and is readily adapted to high-speed continuous manufacturing techniques, has a continuous solid core of a deformable bonded detonating explosive composition comprising a crystalline high explosive compound, preferably superfine PETN, admixed with a binding agent, the crystalline explosive loading being about from 0.5 to 10 grains per foot (0.1 to 2 grams per meter) of length; and, enclosing the core, a protective plastic sheath, e.g., about 0.005-0.075 inch (0.127-1.905 mm) thick, no metal or woven textile layers being present around the core or sheath. Perferably, one or more continuous strands of reinforcing yarn, e.g., running substantially parallel to the core's longitudinal axis, are located between the core and the plastic sheath, or in or around the sheath. A preferred cord can be made by drawing strands of yarn under tension in the form of a moving cage of substantially parallel strands, allowing the moving cage to engrain a bonded explosive core within it and thereby form a conveyor for the core, and applying a layer of plastic material around the cage while effecting substantially no change in the diameter of the exposive core after its entrainment within the cage.
摘要:
The present disclosure is directed to a method and apparatus for manufacturing a fuse containing a very fine, dust-like explosive wherein at least one thread is guided through the explosive to facilitate the introduction of said explosive into the fuse casing.
摘要:
DETONATING FUSE CORD HAVING ALONG ITS LENGTH ALTERNATING SECTIONS OF GREATER AND LESSER EXPLOSIVE ENERGY IS MANUFACTURED BY FORMING DRY PARTICULATE EXPLOSIVE INTO A CORE ABOUT A CENTRE THREADLINE IN SUCH A MANNER THAT THE CORE IS MADE UP OF CONNECTED SECTIONS OF GREATER AND LESSER EXPLOSIVE MASS. THE CORE IS THEREAFTER ENVELOPED WITH A PROTECTIVE COVERING.
