Abstract: An initiator (14c) for a secondary explosive receptor charge is provided by forming a length of detonating cord (14) into a helical coil containing a plurality of windings with a cut-off barrier provided by e.g., a separating rib (46) between adjacent windings. The adjacent windings may be not more than about 0.5 inch (12, 7 mm) apart. The detonating cord (14) may be wound about a spindle (16) which may optionally provide the separating rib (46). The coil may be a tapered coil which may define a taper angle of e.g., from about 2 to 4 degrees. Alternatively, the coil may be a cylindrical coil, or the cord may be configured in a planar spiral. Optionally, the detonating cord in the helical coil may have a core of explosive material with a loading of less than 15 grains per foot of the cord, e.g., less than 12 grains per foot of the cord, or a loading in the range of from 8 to 12 grains per foot of the cord. The coil may consume about six inches of the cord. Conversely, the detonating cord in the spiral may have a core of explosive material with a loading of at least 2.5 grains per foot, optionally at least 15 grains per foot of the cord.

Title: Mold base assembly
Inventor: TSAU TAR
IPC: B29C49/48
Filed: 2003-08-29
Granted: 2010-04-20
Abstract: A base assembly used as a part of a mold assembly for forming a container has a base insert and a flow divider plate that co-operate to define a continuous fluid passageway for cooling or heating the base insert. The flow divider plate has an upper surface portion having at least one raised runway extending in a first pattern covering a substantial area of the upper surface portion. The base insert has a lower surface portion with a continuous channel extending in a second pattern. The channel is positioned adjacent the at least one raised runway in sealing relation therewith to define a continuous fluid passageway. The channel in the base insert is a recessed groove and a plurality of bores with dome shaped ends that extend from the lower surface portion of the base insert deeper into the base insert than the recessed groove. The raised runway has a plurality of baffles with rounded tips that extend outwardly therefrom and into a corresponding one of the bores to redirect flow of fluid through the bores. By utilizing a continuous fluid passageway in the base insert and the co-operating flow divider plate, any blockage in the passageway may be detected by the pumping system for the cooling fluid. Further, the passageway is readily formed by machining one face of the insert and one face of the flow divider plate and provides for enhanced heat transfer between the contoured surface of the base insert and coolant passing through the base insert.
