Definitions
- the present invention has for its subject a fuse body and detonator combined in such a way ,that the detonator, or more exactly the flod'gedjforins in its entirety or in part an internal 'lining for the Vfuse body, which Vlining, by means of one or more splayed or expanded portions, is hooked on corresponding shoulders on the enclosing body, 'one of 25 these expanded portions at least being hooked orseated Vdirectly upon the part of the fuse body which itself is seatedv on the l ,.projectile.'
- .a detonator socket according to the invention will be con*- structed'soias vto* provide, in its upper part, a
- this fuse body may be made vof a relatively weakV material such as alumini'um or an aluminium alloy, a plastic materi'al, ⁇ eta-the vliningsl'eeve .which carries the detonator alone being made of a strong Y material such assteel or steelcased with copper for example.
- the arrangement formed by the fuse and the detonator could be constructed Vvmuch more easily and more economically than heretofore, an 'economy being effected vboth in.
- FIG. 1 Figure l is a longitudinal sectional elevacording to the invention, constructed with a View to the use 1n Vcombination with super sensitivey percussion fuse operating by dr1v .erall formed b f asocket or gaine at the .l
- Fig. l is a longitudinalsection'of another form of fuse embodying the invention.
- A' is a fuse body proper formed for example bycasting, from a material such as aluminium
- B is a detonator socket or gaine, that is to say a socket at the bottom of which is lodged and held a detonating 4primer C.
- the detonating charge C may, in the known manner, be contained in a capsule@1 ⁇ (as shown in Fig. l) closed by a Adiaphragm C?, the arrangen'ient C-C2 ⁇ ⁇ keeping the primer perfectly Afluid tight; any displacement of the said capsule is prevented by indentingvthe socket with a punch as at b.
- the detonatingcomposition C may be lodged directlyI at the bottom of the socket B, and retained by'a perforated piece C3 made of a light metal, forminga wad and retained by suitable. crimping.
- the gaine or socket' B forms in part an internal lining for the fuse body A.
- This gaine may be made of a strong rmaterial such as steel or steel cased with copper.
- the body A and the socket B are so shaped that the latter is hooked by means ⁇ of one or more expanded portions B1, B2 upon corresponding shoulders a, al on the enclosing fuse body A.
- One of these expanded portions at least is seated directly upon the partei' the luse body which isyitselt seated at a2, uponr the projectile D.
- the socket B which lines the fuse body internally, may be held in 'place by an lindependent part 'A1 of the fuse body which part isV screwed on A. and serves lodgment or'the mechanism E.
- the lining socket B may, as shown in Figure l, serve as lodgment, by means of its front part, for a removable delay device F which will.
- the elasticity may be obtained yby means o3t a series of slots G1 formingY at the sametime duets allowing the gases to pass to-1 soA Wards the delay holder and the gases coming fromthe latter to pass.
- the member Gr may as shown in the drawing, be .att-ached ,onto the rpart A of the fuse body-[for instance by setting.v
- Figure 3 shows, in ⁇ sectional elevation, a constructional example ofthe combined fuse body and detonator which vthe nipper splayed part of slioulder'Bl, of the socket; l. is embedded, during manufacture, in thesofter material of thev fuse body y AIt goes Without vsaying .that it is possible,
- the socket carrying the detonating primer may. be formed directlyY by aframe lodged in the fuse body of weaker material in accordance 'With the invention formingV- 'thesubjectfof the U. S. PatentNo. 1,540,283.
- the outlines, internal -andrrex'-y ternal, of the gaine or socketB which contains the detonating primer may be'varied as desired-to s'u-itthe mode of construction oi" the elements ofthe .fuse,'according Tasto Whether the said fuse isintended to be lemployed With a removable or axed'delay device or in A.combination:with mechanisms other :than theone shtml-n Vway ofy examplefin@theV drawing. f
