22 Claims. (Cl. roe-s) water-resistance of the explosive compositions used, rather than upon the water-resisting quality of the shell or envelope, in which the explo- 15 sive is encased. It is for this reason that the more costly and higher water-resistant types of explosives, as for example the blasting gelatins and gelatinized dynamites, have been almost invariably employed for blasting under wet con- 20 ditions. This has resulted in unduly high. blasting costs, due not only to the relatively high cost of such type of explosives, but also to the fact that they are often less suitable in their-action for yielding the most desirable blasting results,
25 as compared with the less water-resistant types of explosives, which might otherwise be employed.
All previous attempts and proposals toward the production of suitable and practical water-proof 30 shells, so far as we are aware, have fallen short of the mark because of either too great a cost or some other weak feature that could'not be economically and practically overcome.
We are aware of such previous proposals as, 35 for example, hermetically-sealed containers of such materials as metal, rubber, rubberized cloth, waxed paper, paper-board, etc. all of which are either too costly or otherwise objectionable, for example, having insuiiicient flexibility (too 40 rigid) or insuflicient bursting and/or tearing strength to withstand the usual handling stresses involved with blasting operations; and especially where deep bore-holes and high water pressures are experienced. Further, we are aware 45 that various skin coatings have been heretofore proposed for use in conjunction with conventional or other types of blasting explosive cartridges, as for example waxes, plastics, lacquers, tars, etc. All of these have the common de- 5 feet, however, of being too diflicult to apply so as to obtain always a completely water-proof envelope, on account of the fact that all require a period of time to set, dry or cool, during which time the coating is sufliciently soft to permit 55 the formation of pores by the passage of air therethrough; such passage being induced by the differential between the internal and external pressures of the cartridge, which usually exists and always is, present when the skin coating is applied at a temperature different from that of the surrounding atmosphere. A further defect that is common to most types of waxes, tars and plastics for this purpose is their tendency to be either'too brittle or else too sticky, soft and weak for proper handling and it) good results within the temperature ranges.involved during manufacture, storage and. use.
In accordance with our present invention, we have discovered a type of water-resisting shell for blasting explosive assemblies which appreaches the ideal, in that it obviates both the economic and technical disadvantages of the various water-proof blasting explosive assemblies heretofore known or used, as exemplified by those recited above; besides permitting the practical use of the less costly and less water-resisting types of explosives and explwive compositions,
' such as black powder, non-gelatin'ized dynamites,
ammonium nitrate explosives, etc., even under severely wet conditions and under considerable heads of water.
Our novel explosive cartridge assembly .comprises a charge of explosive contained in a shell or envelope, the wall of which is both flexible and extensible (i. -e. capable of being easily bent, folded and enlarged in area by stress) as well as water and moisture repellent; both in its original and its deformed (bent, folded or enlarged) state and which envelope comprises a preformed sheet of inherently extensible material. By this we mean a sheet of material which, before being incorporated in the explosive cartridge, is stretchable under tension. An explosive cartridge of this novel type, which has beendeveloped and perfected through extensive experi- 40 menting and thought, has the outstanding advantage of being capable of conforming. itself within the confines of a bore-hole, without breaking, bursting or tearing with consequent entrance of water. For example, we have found that the water-proofed wrinkled or craped material as for 5 example, paper, cloth, etc. The said material is also preferably craped so that it may be extended or stretched in more than one direction. The water-proofing may be accomplished in any suitable manner, but preferably so that it will minimize the reduction in flexibility and extensibility of the craped material, as, for example, by impregnating, laminating or coating the material with a suitable flexible and extensible waterproofing mediumas latex, tar, rubber, lacquer, asphaltic composition, wax, etc.
It may be observed that a straight rubber envelope may fall within the scope of the above definition, in that it may be both flexible and extensible. Rubber envelopes for explosives, however, have the disadvantages, as compared with our novel type of easing comprising a material of the type of craped paper or fabric, of being much more costly, of being more subject to time-deterioration and of having too much elasticity. Elasticity is objectionable in the magnitude experienced with an ordinary rubber film ofsufficient weight to be usable as a suitable casing for blasting explosives, because this property tends to retard the conforming ability of a cartridge in the bore-hole. As soon as an elastic casing of this type is stretched, bent or extended, it is put immediately under tension and the greater the deformation the greater the tension. This makes such a cartridge more difficult to be charged into non-uniform and ragged bore-holes and decreases the ease with which the cartridge can be made to "spread so as to completely fill the bore hole as, for example, where the highest possible charging density is desired. We accordingly specify that the material used for the shell body or casing of our novel water-proof blasting explosive assembly be essentially non-elastic, in addition to being flexible and extensible. Thisc ombinationo f properties defines the material as being capable of being deformed by bending, folding, stretching, etc., with but slight tendency to go back to its original form and size, subsequent to such deformation. By craped, as used in the accompanying claims, we mean a preformed sheet of material not necessarily extensible in its composition but which has been rendered extensible.
by being provided with a multiplicity of wrinkles or fine corrugations, usually extending in many directions.
One example of a particularly desirable embodiment of our invention consists of a charge of blasting explosive contained in a shell body consisting of two layers or lamina of craped paper cemented together by means of a substantially water-impervious internal layer or lamina of asphaltic composition. The outer lamina of craped paper is preferably coated and/or impregnated with a protective material as wax or lacquer, in order to render it more resistant to the softening and disintegrating action of the water and moisture, with which it may come in contact, as well as to add materially to the waterresisting property of the shell body material as a whole without undue reduction in the extensibility of the same. The seems, as well as the openings through which the explosive is charged into the shell, are preferably sealed by means of a water-resisting, flexible adhesive medium as latex, rubber cement, lacquer, asphaltic composition, tar, etc. In view of the usual sensitivity of blasting explosives to heat, it is quite preferable, however, to employ an adhesive medium for the final closure of the loaded explosive cartridge, that may be applied to effect a water-proof seal at or near atmospheric temperatures. For this reason, we prefer the use of such adhesive as latex, rubber cement, lacquers, etc., which may be ap- 5 plied in this more desirable manner.
The figures shown in the accompanying drawing are merely explanatory and are not intended to be limiting, since there are many other ways in which the invention may be applied. 10
Figure 1 is a view, partly in side elevation and partly in section, of an explosive assembly package embodying the principles of the invention.
Figure 2 is an enlarged sectional view through the material of which the container is formed; 15 and Figure 3 is a view, partly in side elevation and partly in section, of a type of large scale container in which sticks of dynamite, for example, may be stored, shipped, or otherwise contained.
Referring now to the drawing, 5 designates the inner lamina, 6 the outer lamina, ancLLthe interposed lamina of a water-proofing composition of any of the material's herein defined. The laminae 5 and 6 consists of craped material, pref- 25 erably craped paper, though we contemplate the use of any suitable crape or otherwise extensible and substantially non-elastic material; the advantages of which have already been explained.
A sheet of material consisting of the lamina, 30 shown in Fig. 2, is suitably shaped to form a container, such for example as that illustrated in Fig. 1 where the sheet of material is first brought to tubular form. This may be accomplished by providing the material with a longitudinal seam 35 along its abutting edges, cemented with a suitable water-proofing composition of the class defined herein.
There are numberless ways in which the ends of the receptacle may be sealed, and we contem- 40 plate employing any of the well known bag folds employed in the manufacture of paper habs. One way in which a container may be sealed at the bottom is illustrated in the accompanying drawing wherein the material is merely bent over upon 45 itself; suitable adhesive being applied, at 8, and, if desired, again, at' 9, to seal first the abutting faces to each other and then to seal the turned over edges at the point 9. Another way of sealing an end of a tubular structure of this sort 50 is to gather the material of the end of .the tube, as indicated at H), applying a wire bagtie, or other suitable binding element 1 l, thereto, and dip the gathered end into a body of waterproof sealing composition such as tar, asphaltic 55 composition, latex, rubber cement or lacquer. Where the bag-tie is used, its eye I! provides means for the attachment of a lowering cord by which the explosive assembly may be lowered into a bore hole. We also contemplate the draw- 60 ing of the gathered end l0, by means of bag-tie or equivalent element about a rubber plug, in order to seal the package and in the manner described in the patent to Farren, No. 1,890,726, dated December 13, 1932. 05
In Figure 3, we have indicated that laminated extensible material of the character described may be employed in the formation of containers of considerable size. In said figure, a container l3, formed of the laminated extensible sheet herein 70 described, serves as a receptacle for a plurality of sticks of dynamite I 4. This illustration is given merely to emphasize the fact that our described material is of utility in relations other than as .l
the casings of single cartridges. Material of this 76 nature constitutes cheap and efllcient means for the shipment of explosives into humid countries, or under other adverse weather conditions, with the assurance that such shipments will be found in first class condition upon arrival as far as any deterioration from moisture is concerned. 1
It will be understood that the above example is not limiting and thatwe contemplate a vast number of variations thereof, all of which fairly come within the scope of this specification. may, for example, employ one or a multiplicity of craped paper or fabric laminae in conjunction with one or more laminae or coatings of a suitable water-proofing substance. We may employ various media for fastening and water-proofing the seams, as described above, and we may employ various means of closing the ends of the shell body as well as various attachments, if desired, to make for easier handling and loading of the cartridges.
It should be further understood that we are 'of conventional types, with or without individual shell coverings, coatings, etc.
Further, relative to the auxiliary water-proofing treatment of the casing of the assembly, we may choose to not treat it at all, or we may apply the protective medium at. the time the material is manufactured or any time prior to or subsequent to the loading of the assembly with blasting explosive; as for example, by coating, spraying, dipping, etc. This said treatment may also be applied to one or more or all of the craped lamina, as requirements dictate. By the term extensible material as used in the appended claims, I mean a material having inherent extensibility, as for example the craped material described, and I do not mean to include ordinary plain paper which is not inherently extensible of itself even though it may be folded into plaits to make an extensible structure.
