A container manufacturing process includes forming a tubular case of combustible material; forming two covers of combustible material, each cover including a base integral with a cylindrical edge having an external diameter equal to the internal diameter of the case. Each cover has at least one edge of sufficient length to permit the positioning of the cover with part of the edge located outside of the case to be able to receive a tubular extension integral with another container or another interconnecting ring. Positioning of the covers with respect to the case is achieved using structure allowing selective positioning of at least one cover in at least two different axial positions that include selected positions in which the base is outside of the case, the base is inside the case or the base is at the ends of the case. The covers and the case are connected using attachment structure such as glue. |

Ammunition round comprising a forward cartridge 1 including a projectile 6 and a propellant charge 8, a rearward cartridge 2 including a propellant charge 8 and a propellant ignition system 3, 10, 14, and a propellant charge igniter 16 located so as to lie positioned between the first and second propellant charges when the round is loaded, wherein the propellant ignition system includes ignition transfer means 14 for transferring ignition from the rear of the rearward cartridge to the propellant charge igniter and the propellant charge igniter 16 includes ignition propagation means, preferably in the form of igniter cord 26, for spreading ignition laterally to facilitate rapid simultaneous ignition of the two charges. |

A propellant system is disclosed which includes a propellant applied to at least one surface of a substrate which is in the form of a strip. The propellant strip is adhesively attached to itself in a configuration which conceals propellant within the configuration and which allows the attached strip to peel away from itself under applied forces thereby resulting in smooth and continuous exposure of propellant for burning. The system is directed to use with ejectable projectiles which are slidably disposed within a canister or casing. The propellant system is interconnected between the projectile and the canister which houses the projectile. The propellant is urged to peel, and thus expose propellant for burning, as the projectile is ejected from the canister. |

A containment bag has two sections. A forward section with one end secured positively in the sabot-obturator interface region during the assembly of the sabot, obturator, projectile and casing adapter. The other end of the forward section has a circumferential securing band, for example a band of loops of the type marketed under the trademark Velcro. An aft bag section is secured to the cartridge casing at one end in a conventional manner and the other end has a circumferential securing band; Velcro hooks for example. The bands join the two sections of the bag together when the cartridge casing is brought into position to be bonded to the cartridge adapter. |

An ignition transfer body for a propellant-charge module is coaxially surrounded by a supporting tube and includes at least one clear ignition channel. The ignition transfer charge is composed of a first propellant-charge powder generating thermal energy in a range of 3 kJ/g to 4.5 kJ/g, and the supporting tube is composed of a second propellant-charge powder. Preferably, the second propellant-charge powder forming the supporting tube is pressed powder which is extruded or pressed in a mold. |

A modified propellant increment for the propulsion system of an ammunition round includes a body composed of combustible propellant material and having a hollow interior, and a plurality of holes defined through the body which communicate the exterior of the body with the hollow interior thereof. The hollow interior of the body is empty of any propellant other than the propellant material composing the body. The holes are arranged in first and second arcuate rows on opposite planar end portions of the body and ensure complete combustion of the body upon burning thereof. |

A propellant-charge pack has an annular envelope having an outer wall extending along and centered on an axis, a pair of axially spaced end walls extending transversely inward from the axis and having inner peripheries centered on the axis, and an inner wall defining a clear axially throughgoing passage between the inner peripheries of the end walls. The envelope is generally axially symmetrical about the axis, that is it is formed as a body of revolution or of regular polygonal section, and is substantially symmetrical to a plane perpendicular to the axis midway between the end walls. A relatively easily ignited primer charge forms a part of the inner wall symmetrical of the plane and a propellant charge fills the envelope between the walls outward of the inner wall. The primer charge is of such high combustibility, compared to the diameter of the passage, that the entire primer charge, even of a stack of such packs, will be ignited before they burn through and set off the respective propellant charges. |

An ignitable charge for producing pressurized gas to power industrial tools, that is made of plentiful, common materials at a very low cost, lower in cost than conventional charges by orders of magnitude. The charge is comprised of a hollow plastic jacket of triangular cross section that is open through its center to both opposite ends and contains a nitrocellulose propellant in uncompressed, or expanded form that may be ignited through one end of the jacket by a spark, hot wire, or the like in an open chamber type feed and firing mechanism. The charge produces pressurized gas at the desired burning rate and peak pressures for operating the tool. |

An open chamber gas powered tool and gas generating charge for the tool. The charge has a hollow open-ended plastic jacket of uniform noncircular cross-section from end to end containing a propellant, such as nitrocellulose, which may be electrically ignited through an open end of the jacket by a spark, hot wire or the like or ignited by detonation of a dab of priming compound contained within a recess in one end of the jacket. The tool has an open chamber breech mechanism including a cylinder containing a firing chamber opening through the cylinder circumference for transporting charges to firing position wherein the chamber is closed by the breech frame, a trigger actuated firing means for firing the charges in firing position, and operating means powered by the gas generated by each fired charge for performing a work function.The particular tool described is a fastener driving tool having an electrical firing circuit which is conditioned for operation to fire charges by pressing the tool against a workpiece, and a plunger which is propelled through a working stroke by the pressurized gas generated by the fired charges to drive fasteners, such as nails or studs, into the workpiece. The invention also provides a novel method of fabricating and packaging the charges in a magazine with the charges fixed to a web or band for feeding the charges to the tool. |

A consumable explosive cartridge includes an explosive charge defining therewithin a recess. A primer material is disposed within the recess and is of less volume than the volume of the recess to resist premature detonation of the cartridge. A method for making the cartridge includes the steps of providing a pair of cartridge half sections, each containing an explosive charge and a recess section. A primer material is inserted within one of the recesses and the half sections are secured together with the primer material being disposed within a recess formed by the recess sections.
