ABSTRACT:
The present invention relates to an apparatus for providing intermittent explosion of a plurality of explosive charges initially attached to an explosive capsule support belt. The belt is indexed so that a plurality of spaced capsules on the belt can be separated from the belt by generally vertical movement of an explosive capsule holding rod and then detonated within a shock wave generating chamber which has at least part of its interior surface area which in the shape of a pseudo-ellipsoid. The belt comprises two spaced members which are attached to each other by a plurality of reinforcing rods, with a plurality of capsules being positioned between the base members in a first direction and between the reinforcing rods in a second direction; the capsules are held to the base members by attaching rods which extend from opposed base members.
