Powerless Programmable Fuze Function Mode System

View page
US Patent:
51608014, Nov 3, 1992
Filed:
May 20, 1991
Appl. No.:
7/702988
Inventors:
David A. Andersen - Mound MN
Keith A. Kiefer - Ramsey MN
Leonard D. Hones - Eden Prairie MN
Assignee:
Alliant Techsystems Inc. - Minneapolis MN
International Classification:
F42C 1704
US Classification:
89 6
Abstract:
A system for programming the function mode of a munition fuze without supplying electrical power to the fuze includes an arrangement of programmable elements located internally of the munition that are electrically conductive but which remain electrically unpowered until after munition firing, and a programming mechanism located externally of the munition being operable to mechanically program the conductive elements. The programmable elements are a series of concentric bands attached to the interior of the munition casing and spaced from one another along the munition axis and separated from casing wall by an electrically insulating layer. The programming mechanism is a plurality of punch heads aligned with the concentric bands and capable of being actuated such that only selected ones of the punch heads strike the exterior of the munition casing causing an indentation in the casing that penetrates the insulating layer and makes electrical contact with the selected ones of the concentric bands. By maintaining the munition casing at a common potential, a coded binary sequence of opened and closed switches is formed by the concentric bands setting the function mode of the fuze which can be subsequently read once electrical power is generated upon munition firing.

Integrated Silicon Bridge Detonator

View page
US Patent:
48319333, May 23, 1989
Filed:
Apr 18, 1988
Appl. No.:
7/182379
Inventors:
Eldon Nerheim - Edina MN
Leonard D. Hones - Eden Prairie MN
Patricia A. Douma - Coon Rapids MN
Earl W. McDonald - Eden Prairie MN
Assignee:
Honeywell Inc. - Minneapolis MN
International Classification:
F42C 1912
US Classification:
1022025
Abstract:
An explosive detonator consisting of an integrated circuit chip having a silicon substrate on which is formed an amorphous or polysilicon bridge, the bridge extending between two metal wire-bonding pads also on the substrate. The integrated circuit chip is disposed in close proximity to a primary charge such that when the bridge is energized by an electric current, it heats to the point where the charge is ignited. By back-etching the silicon substrate under the bridge, parasitic heat conduction is avoided. Further, by bonding a pyrex tube to the chip with the tube's bore surrounding the bridge, it is possible to pack the bore with an explosive train in fabricating the detonator assembly.
