MEANS FOR PREPARING AND FIXING BLASTING CHARGES.
Specification of Letters Patent. Patented J an. 25, 1910.
Application filed September 2, 190 9. Serial No. 515,844.
Be it known that. -.I, CnARnns Scrnwaxrr BAH Y, a citizen of the United States, residing at Carthage, in the county of Jasper and State of Missouri, have-invented certain new and usefulImprovements in Means for Preparing and Fixing Blasting Charges, of
which the following isa specification.
This invention relates to the subject of vmining and quarrying, and has special reference to improved means for preparing and fixing blasting charges at the bottom of the drill hole.
To this end the invention has in view cc1' tain novel and practical improvements in the construction of afilling cartridge for blasting-purposes, that is a cartridge carrying filling or confining material adapted to be introduced into the drill hole and liberated over and about the blasting charge. In other words, the present invention pro vides improved means for introducing the blast charge fconfiuing-material into the charge receiving pocket in bulk so that when the taniping nnplement or machine acts upon the same it will be distributed over all parts of the main charge, and also fill all openings and crevices. thereby closely coutining the blasting charge so that the maximum of results will be obtained from the explosion thereof.
In the embodiment of the invention shown in the drawings the preferred way of carrying out the invention is illustrated, though it will be understood that the invention is necessarily susceptibleto structural changes or modification.
' 'In the accompanying drawings, Figure l is a sectional view of a rock face illustrating the application of the invention and showing the blast opening drilled in the rock and the pocket or cavity which has been squibbed for the reception of the main blast charge... Fig. 2 is a similar view showing thecollapsible cartridge shattered to release the confining-material and thus admit of the squibbed pocket or cavity being readily (incompletely filled with the sand or other confining n'latcrial. Figs. 3 and 4 a re longitudinal and cross-sectional views re spect-ively of one. term of collapsiblecartridge that mav be utilized in carrying out the invention.
may be employed. Fig. 7 is a detail plan View of the slitted sheet or board in blank form. e
Like references designate corresponding parts in the several figures of the drawings.
Referring to the drawings, the number 10 designates a mining tunnel or rock face having a blast opening 11 drilled therein, at the inner end of which opening amain charge-receiving pocket l2'has been formed by the usual preliminary-explosion or squibbing operation. The main charge 13 which consists of sticks of powder is shown in said pocket with its fuse 14 pr ijecting through the opening. This charge 13 :is intended to be closely confined in thesaid pocket by the confining material 15, preferably sand.
It has been found that a practical way-to to may be properly characterized as a filling cartridge, and according to the present invention this cartridge consists of a tubular paper body 16, and the paper or equivalent covering sheet 17 therefor.
In the .form of theinvention shown in Figs. 3 and 4 the paper body or wrapper 16 is made of a single sheet of aper, preferably cardboard, rolled into the form of a cylindrical tube, with its overlapping edges 18 and 19 left loose and unsealed so as-to not interfere with the ready breaking and open-' ing up of the cartridge when the tamping tool isj'orced against the same. In connection with the formation of the tubular pa er body 16 an important and distinctive eature of the invention resides in preliminarily providing theblank or sheet of material from which said body is made with a multiplicity of transverse, or otherwise disposed.
