SOURCE OF SEISMIC SIGNALS Russian patent published in 1999 - IPC

FIELD: shock excitation of seismic vibrations for prospecting for mineral resources. SUBSTANCE: proposed source of seismic vibration is based on usage of blast gas mixture in the capacity of energy source. It includes body with bearing plate, heavy plunger with calibrated tail part and blast chamber located inside it, spacer, guiding pipe of frame structure, reflecting housing and system feeding blast gas mixture. Source is anchored on vehicle. For functioning it is lowered by plate on to ground. EFFECT: increased power of impact momentum and diminished negative effect of source of vehicle. 1 dwg
