Abstract

502,948. Machine guns. BOULTON PAUL AIRCRAFT, Ltd., and NORTH. J. D. Oct. 1, 1938, No. 28552. [Class 92 (ii)] A cartridge belt 1 feeding a gun 5 is prevented from running back, due to the tension caused by its own weight, by passing the belt through a guide channel 2 separate from the gun, the channel having one or more ratchet pawls 7 engaging the belt. The'pawl or pawls permit motion of the belt towards the gun but prevent reverse movement. When more than one pawl is employed, the pawls are spaced apart by distances which are not integral multiples of the pitch of the cartridges in the belt so that the belt runs back only a fraction of the pitch before' being arrested.
