<p>An apparatus for processing and dispensing incendiary capsules is provided. The apparatus includes a hollow tube which serves as a cylinder within which is located a reciprocal piston or a plurality of co-axially mounted pistons. The reciprocating motion of this piston assembly is driven by a cam assembly. Each 360 degree rotation of the cam assembly creates a likewise full cycle of the piston assembly. When this coordinated cycle begins with the piston assembly in its full-down position, and the cam assembly is then rotated 360 degrees, the piston assembly will proceed to its full-up position and then back to its full-down position. During this cycle, the following occurs in order: (1) an incendiary is received and enclosed within the piston assembly, that incendiary is then (2) pierced by a needle, then (3) injected with reactant, then (4) the needle is withdrawn from the incendiary, and finally (5) the incendiary is expelled from the cylinder. The feeder which feeds each individual incendiary into the piston assembly is also operatively connected with, and timed to, the cyclic movement of the cam-piston assemblies.</p> |
