Definitions
- This invention relates'to blasting equipment, and more particularly to electric fuses and their appurtenances.
- each charge of explosive laid in 'a shot-hole has embedded in it a fuse provided with two current leads, the leads of each two adjacent fuses being laid bare and twisted up together so as to connect the fuses together electrically in series to form a continuous chain.
- a number, say ten, twenty, fifty, or more, of fuses are linked up in series to form achain and assembled in such a manner that the two wires connecting together any twoconsecutive or adjacent fuses are wound up to form a coil corresponding to the size of the fuse and adapted to provide a recess in which the fuse can be stowed, after which these coils with the fuses between them, are placed one against the other in a tight and continuous row which is held together by a paper strip or the like to form a neat packet suitable for storage and transportation.
- Fig. 1 is an elevational view showing, by way of comparison, the hitherto usual method of connecting up the fuses by twisting together the bared ends of the leads.
- Fig. 2 is an elevational view showing the manner in which; according to the invention, each pair of adjacent fuses is connected together by a single uninterrupted piece of wire.
- Fig. 6 is a perspective view showing a section of a finished packet comprising a chain of fuses stowed between intervening coiled leads and held together by a strip of paper or the like laid around and stuck on.
- the connecting wires are wound to form coils 5 for example of rectangular cross-section.
- the individual windings in of the coils 5 are preferably first held together by means of paper strips 6 laid around The coils can then be attached in close juxtaposition, by means of adhesive, on one side, to a paper strip 8, the appropriate fuse inserted into the recess between each coil and the next, and the coils then closed up together on the other side and there held together by thc application of a second adheslve strip 8 (Fig. '6) to form a closed packet.
- the fuse chain is put up in a form. particularly well suited both for storage i0 and transport, and also for laying at the place 'where it is to be used.
- a chain assembly made up of a plurality of electric fuses for the ignition of blasting charges
- said assembly comprising fuses connected by conductors which are continuous their entire length and insulated throughout, said conductors being wound into the form of a coil between each pair of fuses, said coils being laid end to end in contact with one another with the fuses located between and enclosed by the adjacent coils, and fragile means for holding the several coils in their assembled end to end relation.
- a chain of electric fuses comprising a plurality of fuses connected in series by means of insulated conductor wires, said wires between each pair of fuses being brought into the form of a coil, individual wrappers for the several coils to hold the loops thereof in assembled position, the several coils being-laid end to end in contact and having end depressions in which the fuses are located and enclosed by adjacent coils, and a fragile tie-strip embracing the several coils for holding them in end to end contact, thereby forming a unitary packet.
- a chain of electric fuses comprising a plurality of fuses connected in series by means of insulated conductor wires, said wires between each pair of fuses being brought into the form of a coil, individual wrappers for the several coils to hold the loops thereof in assembled position, the several coils being laid end to end in contact and having end'depressions in which the fuses are located and enclosed by adjacent coils, and
- tie-strip embracing the several coils for holding them in end to end contact, thereby forming a unitary packet
- said tie-strip comprising an adhesive paper strip passed over each of the wrappersof the several coils in virtue of which the coils may be separated at one side while remaining hinged together by the paper strip at the other side.
