Patent number: 4419153Abstract: This invention refers to a pyrotechnical delay charge, i.e. a pyrotechnical charge having a very well defined rate of burning. Similar delay charges are generally used in military fuses of various types. The delay charge according to the invention is distinguished by its components and their proportions relative to each other. Within the framework of the limits stated in the patent claims, the delay charges rate of burning can be varied from approximately 2 to approximately 30 mm/s. Characteristic for this delay charge is primarily that it contains more than 10% by weight tin dioxide (SnO.sub.2) which acts as an oxidizer and slag former.Type: GrantFiled: May 13, 1982Date of Patent: December 6, 1983Assignee: Aktiebolaget BoforsInventor: Tore Boberg

Patent number: 4105480Abstract: A multiple photoflash system is provided which employs a high voltage type flashlamp construction, including a shorting primer material. Said primer material is converted to a conductive residue upon ignition of flashlamp to provide a short circuit path between spaced apart inleads of the lamp. Further series connection of the individual lamps in the flashlamp system which are operatively associated with switching devices to provide an open circuit condition upon flashing of the associated lamps permits sequential flashing. The particular primer material which enables the flashlamp system to be operated in this manner comprises a solid mixture of a combustible metal fuel and an oxidizer for the fuel such as alkaline metal chlorates and perchlorates, and which further contains particular proportions of various combustion supporting oxides.Type: GrantFiled: May 2, 1977Date of Patent: August 8, 1978Assignee: General Electric CompanyInventors: Vaughn C.
