  • Patent number: 9279652
    Abstract: A Safe-and-Arm system for the prevention of unintentional operation of an explosive device by interrupting a detonation train, the system employing an interruptive transfer assembly made of silicon and suitable for implementing in a MEMS device, the assembly including a silicon based transfer charge carrier on a porous explosive passageway made by etching, the passageway extending between at least two ports on the circumference of the transfer assembly, and a drive means that can mechanically bring about at least one armed state of a detonation train.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: February 28, 2014
    Date of Patent: March 8, 2016
    Assignee: Rafael Advanced Defense Systems Ltd.

  • Publication number: 20140137542
    Abstract: A controlled pyrotechnic train implementing a MEMS chip portion for use as an igniter of a charge. The pyrotechnic train includes an initiator; a blocker configured to block the train; a deflector of the blocker; and an output charge. The blocker is displaceable by the action of the deflector.
