Claims8
A detonator comprising a generally tubular housing and including therewithin a plurality of detonation material stages arranged to be ignited sequentially, said plurality of detonation material stages being formed with multi-step protrusions which are seated in correspondingly shaped recesses formed in preceding adjacent ones of said plurality of detonation material stages.
A detonator comprising:
- a cylindrical housing;
- a first end cap located within the cylindrical housing at a first end thereof;
- a delay primer stage disposed within the first end cap;
- an ignition powder stage disposed within the first end cap;
- an intermediate composition stage disposed within the cylindrical housing said intermediate composition stage being configured to define a forward facing recess having an opening facing away from said first end cap;
- a plurality of delay composition stages disposed within the cylindrical housing, at least one of said plurality of delay composition stages having a rearward facing protrusion seated within a corresponding forward facing recess of an adjacent one of said plurality of delay composition stages;
- a second end cap located within said cylindrical housing at a second end thereof;
- and
- a delay booster stage disposed within the second end cap.
A detonator comprising:
- a cylindrical housing;
- a first end cap located within the cylindrical housing at a first end thereof;
- a delay primer stage disposed within the end cap;
- an ignition powder stage disposed within the end cap;
- an intermediate composition stage disposed within the cylindrical housing and having a first forward facing recess formed therein;
- a first tungsten delay composition stage disposed within the cylindrical housing and having a first rearward facing protrusion seated within the first forward facing recess and having a second forward facing recess;
- a second tungsten delay composition stage disposed within the cylindrical housing and having a second rearward facing protrusion seated within the second forward facing recess and having a third forward facing recess;
- a third tungsten delay composition stage disposed within the cylindrical housing and having a third rearward facing protrusion seated within the third forward facing recess and having a fourth forward facing recess;
- a fourth tungsten delay composition stage disposed within the cylindrical housing and having a fourth rearward facing protrusion seated within the fourth forward facing recess and having a fifth forward facing recess;
- a fifth tungsten delay composition stage disposed within the cylindrical housing and having a fifth rearward facing protrusion seated within the fifth forward facing recess;
- a second end cap located within said cylindrical housing at a second end thereof;
- and
- a delay booster stage disposed within the second end cap.
