  • the present invention relates generally to firearm cartridges and more specifically to the type of cartridge which can be detonated either by electrical impulse or by percussion.
  • the invention is particularly concerned with a detonator cap assembly for such a cartridge.
  • Firearm cartridges capable of detonation either by electrical impulse or by percussion priming have been heretofore known.
  • the primer composition is made electrically conductive by the admixture of materials such as graphite.
  • the graphite is arranged in a metal cap which is insulated from the cartridge shell and an anvil used for percussion timing bears against against the metal cap and operates as a second pole to form an electrically conductive connection to the inserted metal cap. It has been found, however, that this type of device requires a relatively large amount of electrical energy for its detonation due to the fact that the graphite particles are added in an unoriented manner to the fulminating material and, therefore, an electrical path of high resistivity exists.
  • the current source required for detonation must be arranged within the firearm itself.
  • the striking point of the firing pin percussion cap opposite the anvil must be arranged, for construction reasons, at such a distance inside the cap that the firing pin projects too far from the breech pin forming the abutment of the cartridge thereby impairing the operation of the weapon.
  • the detonator cap is inserted in the cartridge, there is a danger that, due to unavoidable measuring tolerances, the pressure of the anvil on the fulminating material will become too high and the weapon will be accidentally detonated.
  • the detonator cap which is inserted into the cartridge casing consists of a conductive pin surrounded with insulating material for the priming wire between the insulating material and the cartridges.
  • an electrical priming is provided for only by means of a filament, there is a danger that the centrally arranged conductive pin, which is merely pressed into the insulating body, will be dispelled by high pressure powder gases formed during the priming.
  • the present invention is particularly suited as a detonator cap for cartridges which can be fired by both electrical means and by percussion means such as a firing pin. Furthermore, the invention may be utilized as a detonator cap for cartridges used in hand-held firearms without requiring replacement or restructuring of any of the parts of such commercial firing pin weapons or cartridge casings. Cartridges equipped with the detonator cap of the present invention are particularly adaptable for use with more modern weapons involving detonations which are characterized, in contrast to firing pin weapons, by the fact that the very complicated and expensive mechanical breech mechanisms are eliminated or replaced by simple electrical switching elements. This not only increases the safety of the weapon but it also makes misfiring virtually impossible.
  • the detonator cap according to the present invention may be used in central fire cartridges sometimes referred to in the art as center fired cartridges" as a replacable cap provided with a priming wire.
  • the detonator cap assembly includes a detonator cap mounted in a cartridge casing which encloses fulminating material.
  • the detonator cap is configured in such a manner that, when used in commercially available hand firearms, it may be detonated by a conventional firing pin.
  • a thin, short electrically coductive priming wire which may be preferably made of corrosion resistant material such as magnesium, extends within the detonator cap through the fulminatimg material.
  • the detonator cap is made of electrically conductive material and it is insulated from the cartridge casing.
  • the primer wire may extend from the detonator cap to the cartridge casing and may be used to ignite fulminating material when a small current impulse is passed therethrough.
  • the priming wire is applied on a lamina which is inserted into the detonator cap.
  • the priming wire is mounted within the cartridge casing and is inserted as a prefabricated part thereof into the cap or case being held there by clamping or pasting.
  • a particular advantage of the present invention resides in the fact that the detonator cap may be detonated with relatively small amounts of electrical energy and it will be found adaptable for use with practically all commercial firing pin weapons. With the present invention there is no need to alter the structure of presently used central-fire cartridges, which can be conventionally reloaded as often as is desired. Furthermore, as a result of a plastic and varnish coating which, in accordance with the present invention, is applied to surround the detonator cap laterally, the present invention provides a structure which is corrosion proof due to the reliable seal formed by this coating. By an appropriate selection of the material of the priming wire, which may be formed with or without an armoring primer pellet, relatively short detonation times may be achieved compared to presently known percussion detonation and misfiring is virtually eliminated.

  • the material of the priming wire 4 is selected to be of the type which will burn readily by flash ignition when a small amount of electrical energy is applied thereto.
  • An anvil 5 which will serve as an abutment for a firing pin when the cartridge is detonated by percussive means, is also included in the detonator cap assembly shown.
  • the fulminating composition is coated in a conventional manner similar to that heretofore known for detonator caps of the percussion type, with a thin covering lamina 6.
  • the priming wire 4 may be additionally armored in a known manner shown in connection with the embodiment of FIG. 4, with a primer pellet 7 which burns very rapidly and with great heat when current is applied.

  • one or several of the webs of the anvil 5 are formed to comprise a protruding member 12 which is arranged to bear resiliently against the bottom 10 of the casing 2, in a manner similar to those previously described.
  • the anvil 5 may be insulated from the cap I by a raised edge of the covering lamina 6 which extends across the fulminating material and which is interposed between these two conductive parts.
