An explosive ordnance disposal (EOD) apparatus enables a human operator to deliver an EOD neutralization tool via an unmanned vehicle to a target attached to a ferrous or non-ferrous surface, position the tool to the target, fix the neutralization tool in place, and activate the neutralization tool, all remotely so that the human operator is not in danger. The unmanned vehicle disengages from the remainder of the EOD apparatus prior to neutralizing the target so that the unmanned vehicle is not damaged or destroyed. The EOD apparatus includes a flexible web interface that positions a tool holder ring containing the EOD neutralization tool onto the target before finally fixing the EOD neutralization tool into place against a ferrous or non-ferrous surface.

The invention shows a gas generator comprising a pressure chamber ( 22 ) filled with compressed gas which is sealed against an environment of the gas generator ( 10 ) by a membrane ( 16 ), a solid propellant ( 30 ) received in the pressure chamber ( 22 ), and an igniter unit ( 14 ) adjacent to the pressure chamber ( 22 ). The solid propellant ( 30 ) is surrounded by a cage-type open fuel holder ( 32 ) receiving the same which protrudes into the pressure chamber ( 22 ) and is directly adjacent to the igniter unit ( 14 ). Accordingly, the pressure chamber ( 22 ) is free from solid propellant outside the fuel holder ( 32 ).
