Abstract
A multi-step separator for a fuze is configured to be mated to an explosive device in a military munition, either at a production facility during manufacture of the munition or during use in the field. The fuze includes a detonator with a booster or spit-back element for initiating an energetic sequence resulting in a high-order detonation of the explosive device. The multi-step separator includes:
- (a) a fuze-munition interface device for retaining the fuze in a confined, close relationship with the explosive device and for releasing the fuze when and if it is subjected to an external stimulus that may cause it to detonate the explosive device; and(b) a separating device for physically distancing the fuze from the explosive device when and if the fuze is released.
