Abstract

119,043. Roe, A. V. Dec. 2, 1916. Mountings for use on aircraft.-Relates to mountings especially for use on aircraft and comprising an arm carrying the gun at one end and pivoted at the other end on horizontal trunnions on a bracket carried by a ring with rollers adapted to be trained around a base ring. According to the invention, the arm F, Fig. 4, is arranged to turn about the horizontal trunnions E with a very full travel. The gun H is connected to the arm F by a universal joint G, and the arm is forked and pivoted on the trunnions E which are carried by a bracket C movable on the training ring A. Bands P, Fig. 1, on drums N for clamping the trunnion bearings E are actuated by eccentrics R and a handle S, which serves also to clamp the training ring A. to the base ring B by means of a cam and wedge. The weight of the gun about the trunnions E is balanced bv the tension of rubber bands i, i<1>, each of which is connected by a pair of .straps L, M to opposite points of drums 0 on the trunnions. The tension of the bands is adjusted by screws j, j<1>. Reference has been directed by the Comptroller to Specifications 124,501 and 143,937
