Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of civilian explosives technology, and in particular to an electronic detonator resistant to explosive impact. Background Technology

[0002] Traditional electronic detonators generally consist of a casing, inside which, from bottom to top, are arranged the main charge, the detonating charge, the reinforcing cap, and the electronic ignition element. The reinforcing cap has a ignition hole.

[0003] In existing technologies, reinforcing caps are generally flat-topped caps, meaning the ignition hole is located on the top plate of the reinforcing cap. Examples include Chinese utility model patents with application numbers 201621246137.6, 202421077228.6, 202121624818.2, and 202220498321.9, among many others. However, in actual use, multiple electronic detonators are needed for the same blasting area, and these detonators are not detonated simultaneously. When one electronic detonator is detonated, the resulting shock wave impacts other nearby electronic detonators. Sometimes, this can cause the explosive charge at the ignition hole of other electronic detonators to spill out towards the electronic ignition element, or cause the reinforcing cap to shift, resulting in some electronic detonators becoming misfires. This poses a safety hazard to blasting operations, especially underground blasting, and affects the construction progress. Utility Model Content

[0004] The technical problem solved by this utility model is to provide an electronic detonator that is resistant to explosive impact.

[0005] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, the technical solution adopted by this utility model is as follows: an electronic detonator resistant to explosive impact, including a tube shell, wherein the tube shell is provided with a main charge, an initiating charge, a reinforcing cap and an electronic ignition element in sequence from bottom to top, the reinforcing cap covers the initiating charge, the top plate of the reinforcing cap has a stamped protrusion protruding towards the main charge, and the bottom plate of the stamped protrusion is provided with a ignition hole.

[0006] In one embodiment, the fire transmission hole is located at the center of the base plate.

[0007] In one embodiment, the reinforcing cap further includes an annular surrounding wall disposed along the edge of the top plate, the stamped protrusion being located within the hollow region of the annular surrounding wall, and the outer peripheral wall of the annular surrounding wall contacting the inner peripheral wall of the tube shell.

[0008] In one embodiment, the stamped protrusion, top plate, and annular wall are integrally formed as a single structure.

[0009] In one embodiment, the inner diameter of the stamped protrusion is 2mm-6mm.

[0010] In one embodiment, the inner diameter of the stamped protrusion is 3mm-4mm.

[0011] In one embodiment, the inner diameter of the stamped protrusion is 3mm-3.5mm.

[0012] In one embodiment, the protrusion height of the stamped bulge is 1mm-4mm.

[0013] In one embodiment, the protrusion height of the stamped bulge is 1.5mm-2.5mm.

[0014] In one embodiment, the protrusion height of the stamped bulge is 1.5mm-2mm.

[0015] The beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows: The reinforcing cap structure in this blast-resistant electronic detonator is novel. The stamped protrusion on the reinforcing cap can apply pressure to the detonating charge area near the ignition hole during the forming process, making the detonating charge in the area near the stamped protrusion denser and forming a high-density locking zone. This helps to improve the phenomenon of detonating charge spilling out of the ignition hole when the electronic detonator is subjected to blast impact, reduces the risk of misfires, and improves the safety of blasting operations. At the same time, it can also reduce the amount of detonating charge used to a certain extent. Attached Figure Description

[0032] Example 1

[0033] Please refer to Figures 1 to 3 The first embodiment of this utility model is: an electronic detonator resistant to explosive impact, including a tube shell 1. The tube shell 1 is provided with a main charge 2, an initiating charge 3, a reinforcing cap 4, and an electronic ignition element 5 from bottom to top. The reinforcing cap 4 covers the initiating charge 3. The top plate 41 of the reinforcing cap 4 has a stamped protrusion 42 protruding towards the main charge 2. The bottom plate 421 of the stamped protrusion 42 is provided with a ignition hole 43. Preferably, the ignition hole 43 is located at the center of the bottom plate 421.

[0034] The reinforcing cap 4 also includes an annular wall 44 provided along the edge of the top plate 41. The stamped protrusion 42 is located in the hollow area of ​​the annular wall 44. The outer peripheral wall of the annular wall 44 contacts the inner peripheral wall of the shell 1. When the stamped protrusion 42 is formed, the detonating explosive 3 in the vicinity of the stamped protrusion 42 becomes denser and also transmits pressure to the annular wall 44, thereby making the annular wall 44 and the shell 1 more closely in contact, thus improving the displacement phenomenon of the reinforcing cap 4, and enabling the electronic detonator resistant to explosive impact to be detonated more smoothly.

[0035] The stamped protrusion 42, the top plate 41, and the annular wall 44 are integrally formed structures, that is, the reinforcing cap 4 is an integral structural component, which is conducive to controlling the manufacturing cost of the reinforcing cap 4.

[0036] In one or more embodiments, the inner diameter of the stamped protrusion 42 is 2mm-6mm, preferably 3mm-4mm, and more preferably 3mm-3.5mm.

[0037] In one or more embodiments, the protrusion height of the stamped protrusion 42 is 1mm-4mm, preferably 1.5mm-2.5mm, and more preferably 1.5mm-2mm.

[0038] The detonating charge 3 can be nickel hydrazine nitrate, etc., and the main charge 2 can be a high explosive such as RDX (RDX) or PETN (PETN).

[0039] Experimental tests showed that, under the same conditions, this blast-resistant electronic detonator reduces the amount of initiating explosive by about 90% compared to traditional electronic detonators; with the same explosive power, the amount of initiating explosive can be reduced by 15% to 20%; and after being subjected to a close-range blast impact of 3-5cm, the misfire rate of the electronic detonator drops from 1% to about 0.001%.

[0040] As a feasible example, when processing this blast-resistant electronic detonator, the main charge and the detonating charge are first loaded into the tube shell in sequence. Then, the flat cap is snapped in and pressed together using a flat punch. The pressing pressure is 35-45 MPa. Next, a re-pressing process is carried out, in which a trapezoidal punch is used to punch the ignition hole of the flat cap to form a punched protrusion with a height of 1mm-4mm, thereby obtaining the reinforcing cap in this embodiment. The diameter of the punching end of the trapezoidal punch is 2mm-6mm, the inclination angle is 15°, the pressure is 110 MPa, and the holding time is 3 seconds. Finally, the electronic ignition element is installed.

[0041] The above are merely optional embodiments of this utility model and do not limit the patent scope of this utility model. Any equivalent structural transformations made based on the inventive concept of this utility model and the contents of this utility model specification and drawings, or direct / indirect applications in other related technical fields, are included within the patent protection scope of this utility model.
