EXPLOSIVE CURRENT PULSE SHAPER Russian patent published in 2010 - IPC H01H39/00 

FIELD: electricity.

SUBSTANCE: in comparison to the device containing breakable conductor located between riffled dielectric obstacle and explosive charge with its initiation system, in the proposed shaper the breakable conductor is made in the form of the fragments located along the generatrix of cylindrical surface of explosive charge and connection straps between them, located along the arc of circle, or in the form of fragments located along the arc of circle of explosive charge and connection straps located along the generatrix of cylindrical surface, and edges of end fragments are connected to power supply and load.

EFFECT: increasing pulse strength in load, decreasing pulse length, and possibility of compact location of breakable conductor in restricted space, considerable simplification, improving manufacturing accuracy.
