Abstract
526,768. Fire-extinguishing. STYLES, W. ELLERD-. March 22, 1939, No. 9062. [Class 47 (ii)] A device for handling and smothering incendiary bombs comprises a rectangular container 1 open at its lower end and divided into upper and lower compartments 7, 6 by a sliding shutter 5, the lower end also being adapted to be closed by a sliding shutter 10 operable by means of a pivoted U-shaped handle 13. The walls of the lower compartment are lined with heat and fire-resisting material 8, and the upper compartment 7 is filled with sand. A pivoted handle 16 is provided for carrying the device. In use, the device is placed over the bomb, the shutter 5 opened to allow the sand to fall to smother the bomb, after which the lower shutter 10 is moved by its handle 13 to close the lower end of the container, which movement brings the handle 13 adjacent the handle 16 so that both may be gripped by the hand to carry the device to a suitable position where the bomb and sand can be unloaded. In a modified construction, the container is open at the top, but closable by a removable lid, while in place of the shutter 5, a piece of millboard, bound with metal, rests on ledges on the inside of the container. The heat from the burning bomb burns the millboard, and the sand falls.
