Ikke-elektrisk detonator

A detonator ( 10 ) has a constant-diameter shell ( 12 ) which has a significantly higher shell length-to-diameter (outside diameter) ratio than prior art detonators. The shell ( 12 ) is configured to hold an explosive output charge ( 18 ) which is cylindrical in configuration and has a charge L:D ra...

Zusammenfassung:A detonator ( 10 ) has a constant-diameter shell ( 12 ) which has a significantly higher shell length-to-diameter (outside diameter) ratio than prior art detonators. The shell ( 12 ) is configured to hold an explosive output charge ( 18 ) which is cylindrical in configuration and has a charge L:D ratio which is greater than that of prior art constant diameter detonators. As a result, a significant portion of the output signal of the detonator is directed laterally and it is feasible to transfer signals to a plurality of receptor lines disposed along that portion of the length of the detonator which is co-extensive with the length of the explosive output charge ( 18 ). A connector block ( 26 ) is configured to hold at least one array of receptor lines in side-by-side arrangement along the side of the detonator ( 10 ), and transversely to the longitudinal axis of the detonator ( 10 ).
