Abstract

18,504. Armstrong, Whitworth, & Co., Sir W. G., and Hadcock, A. G. Aug. 26. Sights, compensating, for inclination of trunnionaxis. The sighting-device d is mounted on a vertical pillar c connected by a universal joint b<1>, c<1> to the end of the trunnion a. The vertical position of the pillar c is maintained, whatever the inclination of the trunnion axis, (1) by arcs f, g and screws f<1>, g', (2) by a pendulum, or (3) by a gyrostatic pendulum. The latter arrangement is for use on shipboard. An automatic correction for drift may be made by inclining the pillar c at a small angle. The true inclination of the gun is indicated by a clinometer mounted in a plane parallel to the two axes of the joint b<1>, c<1>.
