Definitions
- the charges then detonate when the counters of their respective detonators decrement to zero.
- the delay time refers to the lapsed amount of time between receipt of the firing signal and actual detonation.
- the blasting machine is individually or collectively wired to each detonator, and it transmits the firing signal upon verification of the firing lines.
- the firing signal initializes the counter of each detonator.
- the counter decrements an amount equal to the downloaded delay time, until detonation of the respective charges.
- One or more of such detonators conventionally reside within each borehole of a site designated for blasting. A predetermined pattern of boreholes is typically drilled for a blasting area, according to site conditions and desired performance specifications.
- the handheld programming unit uses an integrally incorporated Global Positioning System ("GPS") to measure the movement of the technician from one detonator to another.
- GPS Global Positioning System
- the invention contemplates use of an accelerometer to perform this feature, or any other sufficiently accurate positional measuring device that may be easily and readily used in conjunction with the handheld programming unit.
- the programming unit may receive a GPS reading at a detonator, to determine and download a delay time based on its actual position.
- blasting information downloaded by the programming unit typically includes an identifier unique to each detonator, to facilitate in identifying and organizing of the accumulation, the organization and the recalling of the blasting data.
- the present invention assists field technicians in precisely locating a plurality of detonators arranged at a blasting site.
- the present invention also eliminates rework and simplifies the process of programming all of the detonators. This invention facilitates the automatic determination and downloading of desired delay times and other blasting information, while helping to assure technicians that all boreholes and detonators have been accounted for. This helps achieve a desired blasting sequence in an efficient manner, without compromising accuracy or safety.
- the unit may automatically determine the delay time, the loading and the identification data for the next detonator based on the movement of the technician, and/or on the relative position of the second borehole to the first borehole, or even based on another reference position. For instance, the unit may be programmed to increment a downloadable delay time by two milliseconds for each foot traveled in a westerly direction. Similarly, five milliseconds may be added to the delay time for each foot traveled to the north. In this manner, the programming unit can automatically determine accurate blasting instructions on the fly, thereby eliminating the need for field technicians to make complex calculations that are susceptible to error. At each detonator, the programming unit records the detonator identification number, the downloaded delay time and the GPS positional data.
- the blasting machine thus retains a complete roster of the detonators by virtue of the uploaded programming unit memory, and this may include positional data. Thereafter, the blasting machine attempts communication with each detonator prior to initiating a blasting sequence to verify that each detonator is properly connected, unaltered, functional and programmed for detonation. A technician reviews the results of these communications, to identify any potentially problematic boreholes and/or detonators by reference to the identification numbers. Such precaution verifies that all detonators intended for a blast are operational, and that no additional detonators have been mistakenly included. These performance precautions may be further augmented with additional safety features for the blasting system, such as mandating the simultaneous manipulation of both a charge key and a fire switch for detonation.
- the stored information includes the verified positions of each detonator as determined by GPS or other positional system.
- the programming unit may upload a comprehensive picture of the blasting site to a laptop or other computer that is running CAD software. This feature may be particularly useful where a user wishes to rely on the computer to repeatedly update and verify the delay times based upon actual positional data and identification numbers uploaded from the programming unit, as the detonators are being programmed.
- the blasting machine 11 includes an outer case 21, a cradle 22, connecting terminals 23, a firing switch 24, a charging switch 26, a keypad or other data entry device 28, a disc drive 29, a display 30 and an internal processor (not shown).
- the detonators 13 are conventionally programmable detonators capable of receiving blasting information that includes a delay time.
- the delay time is used for decrementing from a firing signal to a desired blasting time. That is, a delay time refers to a lapsed amount of time between receipt of a firing signal at the detonator 13 and its actual detonation.
