ABSTRACT:
An improved, self-closing propellant charge package adapted for use with a gravity-operated loading device for a powder-actuated tool, comprises a tubular body having one end at least partially closed, the other end being open, and having a portion, adjacent to the open end, which is integrally formed with a plurality of deformable, charge-retaining nodes which are adapted for reformation between a first, undeformed condition, wherein passage of charges is prevented, and a second, deformed, condition admitting of ready passage of charges. The package is adapted for telescoping emplacement on a projecting tubular loading port insert on the loading device, whereby the nodes are displaced, allowing the charges to pass into the insert and, thence, into the loading device.
