  • Patent number: 5088411
    Abstract: An apparatus for igniting a plurality of detonating primers including an oscillator for generating a microwave, a transmitting antenna for radiating the microwave generated by the oscillator toward receiving antennas connected to the detonating primers, and a shield housing provided between the transmitting antenna and the receiving antennas to surround a microwave propagating space. The shield housing is constructed such that the microwave radiated by the transmitting antenna is not leaked out of the shield housing and spurious electromagnetic waves do not intrude into the space within the shield housing. The detonating primers are positively ignited by the electric power radiated from the transmitting antenna and received by the receiving antennas even if the output power of the oscillator is small. The shield housing also serves to confine noise, scattering stones and fumes within the shield housing.
