Hybrid Electronic And Electromechanical Arm-Fire Device
View pageUS Patent:
7464648, Dec 16, 2008
Filed:
Mar 3, 2006
Appl. No.:
11/368002
Inventors:
Gimtong Teowee - Westlake Village CA, US
John A. Sudick - Saugus CA, US
Russ E. Rukavina - Northridge CA, US
John A. Sudick - Saugus CA, US
Russ E. Rukavina - Northridge CA, US
Assignee:
Special Devices, Inc. - Moorpark CA
International Classification:
F42C 15/188
US Classification:
102254, 102262
Abstract:
A hybrid electronic and electromechanical arm-fire device comprising a moving mechanical element having a safe position and an armed position, one or more pyrotechnic detonators each having an output mounted on the moving mechanical element, a pickup adjacent to the detonator output(s) that is in alignment therewith when the moving mechanical element is in the armed position but is not so aligned when the moving mechanical element is in the safe position, and electronic circuitry including a logic core having an electronic switch. The electronic circuitry may also include an electronic sensor such as a photointerruptor.
Electronic Ignition Safety Device Configured To Reject Signals Below A Predetermined ‘All-Fire Voltage’
View pageUS Patent:
7987787, Aug 2, 2011
Filed:
Mar 7, 2007
Appl. No.:
11/715106
Inventors:
John A. Sudick - Saugus CA, US
Assignee:
Ensign-Bickford Aerospace & Defense Company - Simsbury CT
International Classification:
F42B 3/18
F42C 15/00
F42C 15/00
US Classification:
1022021, 1022027, 102206, 102215, 102221
Abstract:
An electronic ignition safety device configured to reject signals below a predetermined ‘all-fire’ voltage comprising an exploding foil initiator having an electrical input and an output end, a pickup comprising a secondary explosive donor charge adjacent to the exploding foil initiator's output end and separated from a secondary explosive acceptor charge by an integral barrier, and an output charge adjacent to the acceptor charge.
Hermetically Sealed Actuator
View pageUS Patent:
20040007123, Jan 15, 2004
Filed:
Jul 10, 2002
Appl. No.:
10/192243
Inventors:
Robert Ritchie - New Hall CA, US
John Sudick - Castaic CA, US
John Sudick - Castaic CA, US
International Classification:
B64D001/04
F41F005/00
F41F005/00
US Classification:
089/001140
Abstract:
An actuator connected to receive high pressure gas from a pyrotechnic initiator incorporates a primary piston and a secondary piston mounted for limited movement along cylindrical bores in a housing; the pistons are held in a fixed inactive position and are restrained from movement within the housing by a tension screw connected to the primary piston and the housing. The tension screw incorporates a calibrated reduced diameter section that ruptures at a predetermined applied force to permit the pistons to move within the housing. Gaseous products resulting from initiation are trapped and maintained within the housing by an expandable bellows secured internally of the housing at one end of the bellows and secured at the opposite end of the bellows to the interior of the housing. A calibration/test port extends through the housing into the bore externally of the bellows to permit calibration and testing of the actuator without initiating the pyrotechnic device.
Electronic Safe, Arm, And Fire Device Configured To Reject Signals Below A Predetermined 'All-Fire' Voltage
View pageUS Patent:
20110308414, Dec 22, 2011
Filed:
Jul 29, 2011
Appl. No.:
13/193766
Inventors:
John A. Sudick - Saugus CA, US
Assignee:
Ensign-Bickford Aerospace & Defence Company - Simsbury CT
International Classification:
F42C 15/00
F42B 3/18
F42B 3/18
US Classification:
1022021
Abstract:
An electronic ignition safety device configured to reject signals below a predetermined ‘all-fire’ voltage includes an exploding foil initiator having an electrical input and an output end, and an electronic fireset electrically connected to the electrical input of the exploding foil initiator. The device also includes a through bulkhead initiator (TBI) body, a donor charge disposed adjacent the output end of the exploding foil initiator, and an acceptor charge. The device further includes an integral barrier disposed between the donor charge and the acceptor charge, and one or more of the donor charge, the acceptor charge, and/or the integral barrier being disposed within a component part that is assembled to the TBI body. The device also includes an output charge disposed adjacent the acceptor charge.
Safe-Arm Initiator
View pageUS Patent:
52792269, Jan 18, 1994
Filed:
Nov 4, 1992
Appl. No.:
7/972235
Inventors:
Robert S. Ritchie - Valencia CA
John A. Sudick - Castaic CA
John A. Sudick - Castaic CA
Assignee:
Special Devices, Incorporated - Newhall CA
International Classification:
F42C 1540
F42C 1534
F42C 1534
US Classification:
102254
Abstract:
A pair of explosive detonators are recessed in the end of a cylindrical body containing a permanent magnet, which serves as the rotor in a brushless, bi-directional torque motor enclosed in a housing. A reversible positioning current causes the motor to rotate the body between armed and safe positions and thereby establish and interrupt axial explosive transfer paths from the detonators to a corresponding pair of explosive transfer lines ported through the housing cover. An internal switching circuit disables the detonators when the body is in the safe position and passes a firing current to them when the body is in the armed position. A detent ring secured to the rotatable body, and a pair of spring-loaded detents in the housing index the rotatable body in the armed and safe positions and prevent its accidental rotation. Mechanical safing means are provided for manually overriding an electrical arming signal.
