[0024] The markings in the diagram are: 1-ignition powder box body, 2-gasket, 3-cover, 4-ignition powder, 5-step surface, 6-external thread, 7-positioning surface, 8-adhesive, 9-bonding surface.
[0025] Specific implementation methods
[0026] The invention will now be further described with reference to the accompanying drawings.
[0027] In this embodiment, the structure of the ignition cartridge for the ignition device is as follows: Figure 1 As shown, it includes a ignition box body 1, a gasket 2, a cover 3, and ignition powder 4;
[0028] The bottom of the ignition box 1 is provided with an ignition hole, and the interior is provided with a stepped surface 5.
[0029] The gasket 2 is located between the ignition charge 4 and the ignition hole, covering the entire ignition hole;
[0030] The gasket 2 is made of aluminum foil or tin foil, wherein the aluminum foil should be in an annealed state. The aluminum foil is adhered to the bottom surface of the inside of the fire-transfer box 1, covering the bottom fire-transfer hole. The thickness of the aluminum foil should be determined according to the designed opening pressure of the fire-transfer box.
[0031] The cover plate 3 has a bowl-shaped structure, and the ignition powder 4 is inverted inside the ignition powder box 1. The height of the cover plate 3 is less than the step surface 5 inside the ignition powder box 1. The cover plate 3 and the ignition powder box 1 are glued and fixed.
[0032] like Figure 2 As shown in the schematic diagram of the ignition box body structure, the ignition box body 1 has strong structural strength. Preferably, it is made of stainless steel. The size of its ignition hole and the design of the mechanical interface take into account the material strength to ensure that its structure is intact and there is no obvious deformation during the ignition process. The bottom of the ignition box body 1 has a ignition hole. The total area of the ignition hole can release the combustion energy of the ignition powder in time to prevent the pressure inside the ignition box from being too high, which would cause the ignition box body to deform or the mechanical connection structure to fail.
[0033] The ignition cartridge body has external threads 6 for connection with the ignition device;
[0034] The threaded bottom end has a positioning surface 7, which is used to define the assembly position of the ignition powder box; the inside of the ignition powder box body 2 has a step, which is used to increase the bonding area between the cover plate 3 and the ignition powder box body 1.
[0035] like Figure 3 As shown in the schematic diagram of the cover plate 3, the cover plate 3 is a bowl-shaped structure that is inverted inside the ignition powder box 1. The height of the cover plate 3 is less than the height of the step surface 5 of the ignition powder box 1, so as to press the ignition powder tightly, prevent the ignition powder from shaking and rubbing inside the box, and improve environmental adaptability.
[0036] The cover is made of fusible celluloid or nitrocellulose film, which can be melted during operation or opened under the impact of initial ignition energy.
[0037] like Figure 4 The schematic diagram of the bonding between the ignition box body 1 and the cover is shown. The cover 3 and the ignition box body 1 are bonded with epoxy adhesive. The bonding should be reliable. The adhesive should penetrate into the gap between the cover and the ignition box body 1 and overflow to cover the step of the ignition box body 1. The adhesive should not completely cover the cover.
[0038] Preferably, a reliable flame transfer area with a diameter of at least 70% of the cover plate diameter and not less than φ10mm should be reserved.
[0039] Preferably, the ignition powder 4 is a particulate powder that is sensitive to flame and can be black powder, which can be quickly ignited by the initial ignition energy and release ignition energy.
[0040] While the present invention has been disclosed above with reference to preferred embodiments, it is not intended to limit the invention. Any person skilled in the art can make possible variations and modifications to the technical solutions of the present invention using the disclosed methods and techniques without departing from the spirit and scope of the invention. Therefore, any simple modifications, equivalent changes, and alterations made to the above embodiments based on the technical essence of the present invention, without departing from the scope of the invention, are all within the protection scope of the present invention. Content not described in detail in this specification is common knowledge to those skilled in the art.
