ABSTRACT:
The present invention is an ordnance fuze power source assembled from commercially available cells to form, fit and function in place of the lead/lead dioxide/fluboric acid spin activated reserve batteries now used by the Army and the Navy. Specifically, direct replacements for the U.S. Army HDL P/N 11744726 and 5058639 power sources were made using a series connection of commercially produced lithium anode cells in series with an acceleration activated switch supported in an epoxy matrix. However, the invention is applicable to other fuze power sources as well. Adoption of this invention by the armed forces will ease the logistics burden at the onset of a national emergency by providing a readily available supply of fuze batteries.
