Patent ID: 8904935

Claim:
A shape charge holder, said holder comprising: a plurality of at least three shape charges being angularly aimed at a convergence point, where on detonation each of the plurality of said at least three shape charges produces a jet; a platform including angular sockets, where each of the angular sockets includes a hole through the platform, where the plurality of said at least three shape charges are symmetrically positioned, such that each of the plurality of said at least three shape charges is about equidistance from an adjacent charge and about an equal distance from a center point, where the center point is approximately a centroid of the platform; an explosive bridge fixture enabling substantially simultaneous detonation of the plurality of said at least three shape charges, where the explosive fixture includes a cavity filled with an explosive, wherein said, cavity includes arched channels that extend and connect to said each of the plurality of said at least three shape charges with a connecting end, and wherein said cavity includes a hollow hub, which provides for an explosive and a single igniter to be mounted; and a supporting structure for placing the platform at a standoff distance from a target, wherein, on detonation the jets are substantially simultaneously produced by each of said at least three shaped charges, which are angularly aimed, and wherein said jets emanate from the platform and move to the convergence point where the jets converge.
