  • Converging wave detonator
    Patent number: 4040356
    Abstract: A detonator fuze train combination utilizes a thin centrally initiated disc haped lead azide primer's detonation waves reflected from interior walls of a circumambient metal cup shaped housing member to peripherally detonate a secondary output charge. The output charge produces a detonation wave which converges radially inwardly to generate an enhanced jet output. The resultant jet output is capable of initiating a remotely positioned, RDX, high explosive acceptor.
