Detonation of explosive charge esp. in anti-personnel mine

摘要

The last element (a) is so constructed that the jet which it produces acts on the surface or within the depth (as shown) of the explosive charge (17). In the arrangement shown, detonation of the explosive charge (17) takes place along the length (20). In another variant, a hollow duct (18) passes through the entire length of the main explosive charge. The arrangement simplifies the pyrotechnic chain and makes it more effective.
