There is provided a molded polymeric coupling device incorporating integral hinges, latches and strain-relief features adapted to receive an electric match having a protective chamber, and a quickmatch fuse of a pyrotechnic device. After the quickmatch fuse is suitably placed in the coupling device, it is latched in a closed position around the quickmatch fuse. A piercing structure such as a cone forms an opening in the outer layer of the quickmatch fuse so that, upon ignition of the electric match, flame therefrom is directed into and ignites the central blackmatch core of the quickmatch fuse. The coupling device allows rapid and accurate attachment of an electric match to a quickmatch fuse at the fireworks display site by persons of limited skill and/or experience. The electric matches are protected by the coupling device, preventing unexpected ignition from impact, friction, ESD, or other similar ignition sources.

A process for producing fired pellets by granulating finely-ground iron ore and subjecting the resulting granules sequentially to drying, dehydration, preheating, and firing, wherein said process comprises adding an additive to said finely-ground iron ore at the time of granulation, said additive reacting with iron ore to form a compound which has a melting point lower than the preheating temperature. Owing to the additive (or sintering auxiliary) added in a small amount to iron ore powder, it is possible to produce preheated pellets by using the existing grate kiln without increasing the amount of preheating energy. The resulting preheated pellets have improved strength and produce no adverse effect on finished pellets.
