Abstract

See full text

An explosive primer unit in which the degree of energy coupling between a low-energy detonating cord (LEDC) and an explosive coupling element in a cast explosive primer is maximized; the unit contains (a) a substantially cylindrical charge of cast explosive having a perforation therein aligned substantially parallel to the charge's cylindrical axis, and sized to slidably receive a length of LEDC and (b) embedded in the cast explosive charge along the LEDC-receiving perforation, an explosive coupling element containing a shock-sensitive high-velocity detonating explosive having a tubular body having a wall that surrounds, and a bore that forms, the LEDC-receiving perforation over at least a portion of the perforation's length, the size of the bore of the coupling element's tubular body that forms the LEDC-receiving perforation in the cylindrical charge of cast explosive closely matching the outer diameter of a length of LEDC to be received therein.
