ABSTRACT:
The invention provides a new strip carrier assembly for carrying shaped charges, such as is particularly useful in perforating guns as are utilized to perforate oil and gas wells. The strip carrier includes a coupling member which couples adjacent strip carrier members together to form a contiguous assembly, and which further provides mounting system for a shaped charge so as to maintain uniform spacing even across the coupling junction. Additionally, the carrier assembly includes a novel tab assembly which cooperates with a charge carrier housing configuration to provide a single assemblage of parts which is capable of orienting shaped charges in any one of a plurality of desired orientations relative to the carrier strip.
