Abstract: A pyrotechnics support apparatus includes a base structure with side walls connected to end walls to define an internal cavity. A tab member extends at an angle from each of the end walls across a width of the end walls. The tab members each include a plurality of slots. A plurality of dividers are selectively connectable to the base structure in the slots in the tab members and between the end walls. The support apparatus provides a sturdy foundation for the safe and precise firing of an array of pyrotechnic devices and is specifically configured to increase efficiency and safety.

Abstract: An external gear pump including seals, bearings, bushing/seal housings, choke collars and shafts that are all removable for maintenance and/or replacement without removing either endplate or internals from the case assembly. The preferred pump includes four bearing caps that can be removed without removing the pump from its mounted position. By removing the four bearing caps, access is gained inside the pump housing to all of the seals, bearings, bushing/seal housings, choke collars and most importantly, the drive and idler shafts within the pump housing. Further, the two shafts can be slipped out of the pump without disturbing the internal parts and endplates. This capability facilitates maintenance and replacement of major components without removing the pump from its mounted position.
