I The breech block is provided with a spring retractible firing pin 59 and a hammer 60, the latter being pivotally mounted upon a pin 6| within a pocket 65*- in the rearward side of the breech block and adapted to be engaged with the end of the firing pin through the action of a vertically movable spring actuated plunger 62 provided in the breech block. The hammer is provided with a tooth 63 which in the lowered open position of the breech block is in vertical line with the tooth of the sear 40, so that as the breech block is raised to its closed position the tooth 63 is engaged by the sear and the hammer is swung in clockwise direction to its cocked position preliminary to firing, as shown in Fig. 2, being released through pull of the lanyardand retraction of the sear 40.
. In one side wall of the yoke 26 there is provided a rectangular recess 64 for receiving the cover plate 65 of the extractor-ejector mechanism, this cover plate being normally secured in place by screws 66.- Within the recess 64 there is provided a pocket formation including an upper horizontal slideway portion 61 for receiving the extractorejector member and a lower sear receiving portion 68, the slideway portion 6'! being provided with a slot 63 opening to the breech block passage 36 and to an extractor-ejector receiving notch III in the end of the gun barrel, the forward end wall ll of the slot 69 being diagonally inclined and in line with the diagonally inclined forward wall of the notch 15. The pocket portion 68 is provided at one end with a pivot stud receiving pocket 12 and at its other end with a circular hole 13 opening into the breech block passage 35. The upper and lower walls of the slideway pocket portion El are provided with transversely disposed notches M, and extending rearwardly from these notches adjacent the vertical wall of the pocket there are provided channel grooves 15, for the purpose of receiving retaining lugs provided on the extractor-ejector member, as will presently more fully appear. The upper pocket portion 61 is connected to the lower pocket portlon 68 by a neck portion 16.
The extractor-ejector member 11 is of rectangular cross-section and is engaged for horizontal sliding movement in the slideway portion 61, being provided at its upper and lower sides with pairs of lugs 18 transversely engaged through the notches M in assembling the slide, and slidably engaged in the channel 15 in the operative position thereof. A longitudinal pocket 19 extends forwardly from the rearward end of the extractor-ejector member and is engaged by a plunger 85 upon which outward pressure is exerted by a spring 8|, this plunger bearing upon the forward end of the slideway B1 and exerting rearward spring pressure upon the extractor-ejector member.
Upon the inner face of the extractor-ejector member there is provided a longitudinal rib 82 slidably engaged in the slot 69, and upon the rearward end of this rib and projecting inwardly therefrom there is provided an extractor-ejector finger 83 normally seated within the notch 10 of the gun barrel and projecting into the shell receiving chamber to engage behind the extraction flange 84 of the shell 85. Upon the rearward end of the rib 82 there is provided an inwardly projecting stud 86 engaged in a vertical cam groove 8? in the side wall of the breech block, this cam groove being provided near its upper end with an upwardly and rearwardly inclined cam surface 88 extending to a rearwardly ofiset vertical cam surface 89, the latter forming the forward wall of a horizontally widened upper end portion of the cam groove, its rearward wall being formed by a a downwardly and forwardly inclined cam surface Forwardly of the upper end of the cam groove 8'? the breech block is provided with an extractorejector receiving opening 9! extending from the side wall of the breech block inwardly along the forward wall to the loading and ejecting channel 92 in the upper end of the breech block, the bot-Y,
tom wall of this channel being inclined downwardly at its forward end as at 93, and extending horizontally from this inclined portion to the rearward wall of the breech block.
Upon the lower side of the extractor-ejector member there-is provided a downwardly projecting tooth 94 for cooperation with the extractorejector releasing sear. The extractor-ejector releasing sear 95 is of rectangular cross-section and is provided at one end with an inwardly projecting pivot stud 93, pivotally engaged in the pocket 12,
and at its other end with an inwardly projecting stud 91 engaged through the hole 13 with a vertically disposed cam groove 98 in the side wall of the breech block. Engagement of the upper end of the cam groove with the stud 91, through lowerin movement of the breech block, depresses the sear to release the extractor-ejector member, and as will hereinafter more fully appear. Upon the upper side of the sear there is provided a looking tooth $9 normally disposed in rearwardly opposed spaced relation to the tooth 94 of the extractor-ejector member, and in its lower side there is provided. a pocket it!!! in which is engaged a spring Iill, which normally maintains the sear in its raised locking position.
In operation, the breech block is closed in its upwardly raised position, as shown in Fig. 2, and in this position the extractor-ejector member 11 is in its forwardly moved position where it is retained through engagement of its stud 86 with the vertical parallel walls of the cam groove 81. The extractor-ejector releasing sear 95 is in its raised position under the pressure of its spring "H, with its tooth 59 in rearwardly opposed spaced relation to the tooth 96 of the extractorejector member. After firing of the gun the breech block is opened by pulling the operating hand lever 54 rearwardly, as shown in Fig. 11, and as the stud 8B of the extractor-ejector member is engaged with the inclined cam surface 88 of the cam groove 81 the extractor-ejector member is positively shifted in ejection direction until the stud reaches the upper vertical portion 89 of the cam groove and the tooth 94 of the extractorejector member comes into contact with and is restrained by the tooth 99 of the extractor-ejector releasing sear. Thus the shell is forcibly pried loose from the chamber 3? of the gun barrel. At this point the upper end of the cam groove 9% is in contact with the stud 91 of the extractor-ejector releasing scar, and as the final downward opening movement of the breech block is completed, as shown in Fig. 12, the sear is swung downwardly, releasing the extractor-ejector member, which thereupon is projected rearwardly through. the action of the spring pressed plunger Bil, causing the shell to be ejected through the channels $2 and 38 of the breech block and yoke. Upon upward closing movement of the breech block the rearward inclined cam surface 953 at the upper end of the cam groove 8'! forces the extractor-ejector member forwardly, so that the extractor-ejector finger 83 is clear of the breech block passage 36 as the breech block is moved to closed position. At the same time, the extractor-ejector releasing sear springs upwardly to its normal position, with its tooth 99 in rearwardly opposed spaced relation to the tooth 94 of the extractor-ejector memher.
The form of the invention illustrated in the drawings and described herein is typical and illustrative only, and it is evident that the invention is capable of embodiments in other forms, all falling Within the scope of the appended claims, which are to be broadly construed.
