Abstract

22, 115. Dawson, Sir A. T., and Buckham, G. T. Sept. 28. Mountings.-Relates to elevating and loading gear of the kind in which elevating and loading pinions, operated by independent wormgears from opposite sides of the mounting, engage with a segmental rack. The invention consists in arranging the pinions so that they engage with the outer periphery of the rack. The elevating and loading-gear pinions e<Î>, f<Î>, Fig. 1, both engage with teeth on the outside of a segmental rack A<1> loosely mounted on the trunnion C. The elevating-gear pinion e<Î> is mounted on a side bar Dx of the carriage D, and is rotated by hand-gear E<1Î> connected by a shaft e with the gearing E', E. The loading- gear pinion f<Î> is mounted on a saddle A<1Î>, Fig. 3, attached to the cradle B, and is rotated by hand-gear F<1Î>, Fig. 4, which is mounted in a casing f<2>, carried on one of the trunnions, and which operates upon worm-gearing F, F<1>, Fig. 3. The gun is elevated by moving the segmental rack A' which is locked to the cradle by the worm-gearing F, F<1>; but, when the gun is to be brought quickly to the loading position, the rack A' being fixed by the worm-gearing E, E', the rotation of the pinion f<Î> causes the cradle to move relatively to the rack, the return of the gun to the correct elevation being assured by the engagement of a face a<2> on the saddle A<1Î> with a face a<1> on the segmental rack. The sights are carried on a trunnion sleeve a forming part of the segmental rack, so that they do not change their elevation during the loading movement.
