Sie stellen die nötige Energie für die chemische Reaktion der explosiven Stoffe zur Verfügung. Zur Zündvorrichtung gehört bei der vorliegenden Entwicklung der mechanische Auslöser sowie eine Sprengschnur, auch als Thermo- oder Shock-Tube Such detonators are in the blasting technique and pyrotechnics tools needed to trigger a blast. They provide the necessary energy for the chemical reaction of explosive substances. The ignition device includes in the present development of the mechanical release and a detonating cord, as a thermal or shock tube

bezeichnet sowie die entsprechende Sprengkapsel, die durch den Auslöser initiiert wird. Aus der DE 10 2013 005 631 A1 ist ein Auslöser bekannt, bei dem mit einer Hand ein verschieblich gelagerter Schlagbolzen vorgespannt werden kann, um dann beim Entspannen des Schlagbolzens auf ein Zündhütchen einzuwirken, das mit dem Shock-Tube verbunden ist. Solche Shock-Tubes oder auch and the corresponding detonator capsule initiated by the trigger. From DE 10 2013 005 631 A1 a trigger is known in which a slidably mounted firing pin can be biased with one hand, and then act on the relaxation of the firing pin on a primer, which is connected to the shock tube. Such shock tubes or too

Zündschläuche werden üblicherweise von einem ein- oder mehrwandig Ignition tubes are usually of a single or multi-walled

aufgebauten Kunststoffschlauch gebildet, in den ein Sprengstoff lose in Fadenform oder als Innenoberflächenbeschichtung eingebracht ist. Derartige Tubes sind beispielsweise aus der DE 30 25 703 C2, DE 17 71 851 B, DE 195 46 823 C2 oder DE 29 27 174 C2 bekannt. Sie können in praktisch beliebiger Länge eingesetzt werden, wobei sie wegen ihres Aufbaus und Inhalts einer besonderen Behandlung bedürfen. Es ist daher ein gewisser Nachteil, dass bei den bekannten Zündvorrichtungen Shock-Tubes zum Einsatz kommen, die zunächst als Rolle mit der endseitigen Sprengkapsel transportiert werden und am Einsatzort dann abgewickelt und unter Umständen abgelenkt werden müssen. Bei den constructed plastic tube into which an explosive is loosely introduced in a thread form or as an inner surface coating. Such tubes are known for example from DE 30 25 703 C2, DE 17 71 851 B, DE 195 46 823 C2 or DE 29 27 174 C2. They can be used in practically any length, but they require special treatment because of their structure and content. It is therefore a certain disadvantage that in the known detonators shock tubes are used, which are first transported as a role with the end-side detonator and then unwound at the site and possibly distracted. Both

vorgesehenen militärischen oder polizeilichen Einsätzen ist beim Einsatz Sicherheit besonders gefragt, was bei den aus Auslöser, Shock-Tube und intended military or police missions is in use Safety is especially in demand, what with the shutter release, shock tube and

Sprengkapsel bestehenden Zündvorrichtungen meist nur mit großem Aufwand einzuhalten ist. Beim Abknicken des Shock-Tubes kann es zu Fehlzündungen bzw. zu keinem Zündvorgang kommen. Detonator existing igniters is usually complied with great effort. When kinking the shock tube it can lead to misfires or no ignition.

Der Erfindung liegt daher die Aufgabe zu Grunde, eine kompakt The invention is therefore based on the object, a compact

ausgebildete Zündvorrichtung zu schaffen, die ein schnelles Reagieren und ein einfaches und sicheres Abwickeln des Tube begünstigend ausgebildet ist. Die Aufgabe wird gemäß der Erfindung dadurch gelöst, dass die to provide a trained igniter, which is designed to promote rapid response and easy and safe unwinding of the tube. The object is achieved according to the invention in that the

Sprengkapsel, die zu einer Vielzahl von Sprengstoffladungen passend ausgebildet ist, zusammen mit dem Auslöser und dem Tube in einem Schutzrohr angeordnet ist, dessen vorderes Ende den Auslöser fixierende Endplatten und dessen hinteres Ende eine die Sprengkapsel und das Tubeende fixierende  Detonator, which is designed to match a variety of explosive charges, is arranged together with the trigger and the tube in a protective tube, the front end of the trigger-fixing end plates and the rear end of a detonator and the tube end fixing

Verschlussscheibe aufweist, wobei der Tube Auslöser und Sprengkapsel umschlingend im Schutzrohr gelagert und mit der Sprengkapsel aus dem Having shutter disc, wherein the tube trigger and detonator wrapped around the protective tube and with the detonator of the

Schutzrohr herausziehbar angeordnet und ausgebildet ist. Mit einer derartigen Zündvorrichtung ist es möglich, den Auslöser und die Sprengkapsel zusammen mit dem Shock-Tube beliebiger Länge zusammen als Kompakteinheit zu lagern und für militärische und polizeiliche Einsatzzwecke zu verwenden. Als Protective tube pulled out arranged and formed. With such an ignition device, it is possible to store the trigger and the detonator together with the shock tube of any length together as a compact unit and to use for military and police purposes. When

aufnehmende Sicherheitseinheit dient ein Schutzrohr entsprechender Länge, in das auf der einen Seite der Auslöser und auf der anderen Seite die Sprengkapsel fixiert gelagert wird, während der Shock-Tube beliebiger Länge aufgewickelt im Schutzrohr gelagert ist. Diese Ausbildung hat nicht nur den Vorteil, dass ein Schutzrohr meist runder Ausführung einen sicheren Transport und Lagerung ermöglicht, sondern dass es am Einsatzort ein sehr schnelles Reagieren ermöglicht, weil der Tube einfach aus dem Schutzrohr herausgezogen und mit der endseitigen Sprengkapsel so verlegt und angeordnet werden kann, dass für die Einsatzkräfte selbst keinerlei Gefahr besteht. Dabei ist besonders vorteilhaft, dass der Tube nur so weit aus dem Schutzrohr herausgezogen werden muss, wie er gerade für den Einsatzfall erforderlich ist. Es gibt also keine unnötigen Schlaufen oder Ähnliches, die im Einsatz nur behindern können. Vor allem ist die Gefahr des Abknickens des Tubes praktisch ausgeschlossen. receiving safety unit serves a protective tube of appropriate length, in which on one side of the trigger and on the other side of the detonator is stored fixed, while the shock tube of any length wound up in the protective tube is stored. This training not only has the advantage that a protective tube usually round design allows safe transport and storage, but that it allows a very quick response at the site, because the tube simply pulled out of the protective tube and laid with the end-side detonator so and arranged can, that for the forces themselves no danger exists. It is particularly advantageous that the tube only has to be pulled out of the protective tube as far as it is currently required for the application. So there are no unnecessary loops or similar, which can only hinder the use. Above all, the risk of kinking the tube is practically impossible.

Nach einer zweckmäßigen Ausführung ist vorgesehen, dass die According to an expedient embodiment it is provided that the

Sprengkapsel in einem Splitterschutz-Sleeve, der der Transportklasse 1 ,4S genügend ausgeführt ist, verpackt im Schutzrohr angeordnet ist. Abgesehen davon, dass dieser Splitterschutz so ausgebildet werden kann, dass er die sichere Lagerung der Sprengkapsel begünstigt, ist durch diese Ausbildung der Detonator capsule in a shatter-proof sleeve, which is sufficiently designed for transport class 1, 4S, packed in the protective tube. Apart from the fact that this splinter protection can be designed so that it favors the safe storage of the detonator, is through this training the

Sprengkapsel der Transport des Gesamtsystems ohne spezielle Detonator the transportation of the whole system without special

Sicherheitsauflagen möglich. Safety requirements possible.

Um bei Bedarf eine größere Menge von Wicklungen im Schutzrohr unterbringen zu können, ist es von Vorteil, wenn der Splitterschutz-Sleeve die Wicklungen des Tube aufnehmend stabil ausgebildet ist. In order to be able to accommodate a larger amount of windings in the protective tube, if necessary, it is advantageous if the splinter protection sleeve, the windings of the tube is formed receiving stable.

Um den Tube nicht nur im Bereich des Splitterschutz-Sleeve sicher aufrollen und unterbringen zu können, sondern auch im Bereich des Auslösers, sieht die Erfindung vor, dass das Schutzrohr ein die Wicklungen des Tube aufnehmendes Innenrohr aufweist, wobei der Tube zur Innenwand des In order to safely roll up and accommodate the tube not only in the area of the splinter protection sleeve, but also in the region of the trigger, the invention provides that the protective tube has an inner tube receiving the windings of the tube, the tube being directed towards the inner wall of the tube

Schutzrohres hin über einen Schrumpfschlauch abgedeckt ist. Der Tube hat also nicht nur eine sichere Auflage auf diesem Innenrohr bzw. auf dem Splitterschutz- Sleeve, sondern er ist auch bezüglich seiner Lagerung durch den Protective tube is covered over a shrink tube. The tube therefore not only has a secure support on this inner tube or on the Splitterschutz- sleeve, but it is also in terms of its storage by the

Schrumpfschlauch abgesichert, der so aufgebracht und ausgebildet ist, dass das Herausziehen mit dem Zünder bzw. Auslöser zusammen nicht beeinträchtigt ist. Secured shrink tube, which is applied and designed so that the withdrawal with the detonator or trigger together is not affected.

Eine weitere Erfindung sieht vor, dass das Innenrohr endseitig mit die Lage der Tube- Wicklungen sichernden Scheiben ausgerüstet ist. Diese Scheiben begünstigen einmal die Sicherung des Tube im Schutzrohr und andererseits das Herausziehen mit dem Zünder bzw. Auslöser zusammen. Diese Scheiben stehen entsprechend hoch über dem Innenrohr, sodass wie schon mehrfach erwähnt mehrere Lagen derartiger Shock-Tubes - Wicklungen möglich sind. Mehrfach erwähnt wurde, dass der Auslöser zusammen mit dem Tube aus dem Schutzrohr herauszuziehen ist. Um das als Einheit möglich zu machen, ist vorgesehen, dass das Schutzrohr am vorderen Ende einen Deckel mit einer Öffnung für den Auslöser und am hinteren Ende einen Verschlussring mit einer Öffnung aufweist, die ein Einführen des Innenrohres mit Wicklungen bzw. ein Herausziehen begünstigend geformt ist. Am vorderen Ende ist der Auslöser durch den entsprechend breit ausgebildeten Deckel sicher gelagert und kann Another invention provides that the inner tube is equipped at the end with the position of the tube windings securing discs. These discs once favor the securing of the tube in the protective tube and on the other hand pulling out with the detonator or trigger together. These discs are correspondingly high above the inner tube, so that as already mentioned several layers of such Shock Tubes - windings are possible. It has been repeatedly mentioned that the trigger is to be pulled out of the protective tube together with the tube. To make this possible as a unit, it is provided that the protective tube at the front end has a lid with an opening for the trigger and at the rear end a closure ring with an opening which is favorably formed an insertion of the inner tube with windings or a pull , At the front end of the shutter is securely supported by the correspondingly wide lid and can

entsprechend weit problemlos in das Schutzrohr eingeschoben oder aus diesem wieder herausgezogen werden, wenn beispielsweise eine Betätigung des be easily inserted into the protective tube or pulled out of this again, for example, if an operation of the

Auslösers beabsichtigt ist. Trigger is intended.

Zur Stabilisierung und zum guten Transport der Zündvorrichtung ist es zweckmäßig, wenn das gesamte Schutzrohr mit einem Schrumpfschlauch umzogen ausgebildet ist. Ein solcher Schrumpfschlauch umfasst vor allem auch die Eckbereiche und ermöglicht es, zwischen Außenwand des Schutzrohres und Innenwand des Schrumpfschlauches Informationsblätter oder Ähnliches anzubringen. For stabilization and good transport of the ignition device, it is expedient if the entire protective tube is formed covered with a shrink tube. Above all, such a heat-shrinkable tube also includes the corner regions and makes it possible to attach information sheets or the like between the outer wall of the protective tube and the inner wall of the shrink-on tube.

Nach einer weiteren Optimierung ist vorgesehen, dass beide Ende des Schutzrohres mit dem als Kunststoff Scheibe ausgebildeten Verschlussring bzw. Deckel und einer Abdeckung verschlossen sind, die von dem Schrumpfschlauch zusätzlich fixiert sind. Die Ausbildung als Kunststoffscheibe stützt die stabile und sichere Lagerung sowohl des Auslösers wie auch der Sprengkapsel. Das Schutzrohr kann aufgrund der zusätzlichen Absicherung durch dieAfter a further optimization, it is provided that both ends of the protective tube are closed with the sealing ring or cover designed as a plastic disc and a cover, which are additionally fixed by the shrinking tube. The training as a plastic disc supports the stable and safe storage of both the trigger and the detonator. The protective tube can due to the additional protection by the

Schrumpffolie und der gesamten Gegebenheiten vorteilhaft als dünnwandige Hülse mit fixierenden Abdeckungen ausgebildet werden, wobei die Abdeckungen den Deckel am vorderen Ende und den Verschlussring am hinteren Ende sicher aufnehmend geformt ist. Eine weitere zweckmäßige Ausführungsform sieht vor, dass der Auslöser eine das Einführen und sichere Lagern im Schutzrohr begünstigende Formgebung aufweist. Dabei ist es von Vorteil, wenn er eine Art Stiftform aufweist, Shrink film and the entire circumstances are advantageously formed as a thin-walled sleeve with fixing covers, wherein the covers the cover at the front end and the locking ring at the rear end is securely receiving formed. A further expedient embodiment provides that the trigger has a shaping which promotes insertion and secure bearings in the protective tube. It is advantageous if it has a kind of pen shape,

insbesondere wenn die Öffnung für den Auslöser im Deckel z. B. eine begrenzt nachgiebige Außenfläche aufweist. Das Einschieben und auch Herausziehen ist so erleichtert, wobei die Beschichtung gleichzeitig als Brems- und especially if the opening for the trigger in the lid z. B. has a limited resilient outer surface. The insertion and removal is so facilitated, the coating at the same time as a brake and

The employee employing the ignition device can easily and clearly recognize whether the ignition device or the tube is suitable for the respective application.

Als weitere Verbesserung der Ausbildung des Splitterschutzes ist vorgesehen, dass der Splitterschutz-Sleeve als Verbindungstülle ausgebildet ist. Hierdurch ist die Sprengkapsel und sind die entsprechenden Anschlussteile in einer sichernden Tülle platziert, so dass die Transportklasse von 1 , 1 B auf 1 ,4 S klar reduziert ist. Damit ist der Transport des Systems ohne spezielle Auflagen möglich, wobei die Tülle nach einer weiteren zweckmäßigen Ausbildung die Sprengkapsel vollständig umhüllend, also kreisrund ausgeführt ist und wie in Anspruch 3 gelehrt dabei die Wicklungen der Tube abstützt. Schließlich sieht die Erfindung vor, dass die Verbindungstülle auch eine zweite Sprengkapsel aufnehmend bemessen ist. Durch die Initiierung des zweiten Systems wird die erste Shock-Tube oder Thermo-Tube initiiert und die As a further improvement of the formation of splinter protection is provided that the splinter protection sleeve is designed as a connecting grommet. As a result, the detonator and the corresponding connecting parts are placed in a locking grommet, so that the transport class of 1, 1 B to 1, 4 S is clearly reduced. Thus, the transport of the system without special conditions is possible, the spout for a further appropriate training the detonator completely enveloping, so it is circular and as taught in claim 3 while the windings of the tube is supported. Finally, the invention provides that the connecting sleeve and a second detonator capsule is sized. By initiating the second system, the first shock-tube or thermo-tube is initiated and the
