ABSTRACT:
A mechanism for isolating energetic material feed streams from a material processing apparatus includes a deflector conduit having side panels defining a passageway from an entrance to an exit. Openings are formed in the side panels, and deflector baffles are positioned within the passageway adjacent each of the openings. The deflector baffles are arranged obliquely to the side panels so as to permit material to pass through the passageway toward the exit without falling out of the openings, but to deflect flames, propagating through the passageway toward the entrance, out of the openings to substantially prevent the flames from reaching the entrance. A conveyor may be used in conjunction with the deflector conduit to separate the conduit from a material feed hopper. A combustible conduit may be used to direct material into the deflector conduit from the end of a conveyor or from a feed hopper.
