HENRY J. DREW, OF DIXON, ILLINOIS.
IMPROVEMENT IN REPEATING FIRE-ARMS.
Specification forming part of Letters Patent No. 112,564, dated March 14, 1871.
Tocll whom it 'may concern:
Be it known that I, HENRY J. DREW, of Dixon, in the county of Lee and State of lllinois, have invented a new and useful Improvement in Repeating Fire-Arms; and I do hereby declare the following to be a full,clear, and exact description of the same, reference being had to the accompanying drawing, making a part of this specification, in which- Figures 1 and 2 are different sectional elevations of the mechanism ot'a Winchester riiie and of my improvement, showing the connection of the latter with the former; and Fig. 3 is a perspective view ofthe sliding cover.
My invention pertains to improvement in the arrangement and method of securing slidbreech-loading tire-arms.
My coveris designed for special application to what is known as the Winchester ritle; 7 and consists in a perforated spring-plate arranged to slide on the iiat upper side ot' the breechpiece, and secured to the tubular block forming part of the breech-pin, as hereinafter more fully described.
Referring to the drawing', a, is the sliding breech-pin of a W'inchester ritle, which, with its coactive mechanism, it is unnecessary here to describe. b is a block, which forms a part of and projects upward from the breech-pin into a slot, c, made lengthwise of the upper side of the breech. d is a sliding cover, in which is an orifice, through which, when the cover is applied to the block b, the latter eX- cover.
tends, the cover being fastened to the block by a screw running into the latter. By this or other suitable means the cover d is connected with the breech-pin and moves backward and forward with the latter, the cover extending nearly as far forward as, the pin, so as to close the chamber in which the cartridgebearer c is located when the pin is in position proper for discharging the piece.
When the pin is moved backward by throwing the trigger-guard downward, the cover moves backward with it.
r[The cartridge-bearer is elevated by the same motion of the trigger-guard so far that the two sides of the former extend above the ltop of the breech, and the cartridge-bearer remains in this position during nearly the whole of the forward movement of the pin and The latter is therefore formed with groovesIin its under side, which grooves ride over the sides of the cartridge-bearer as the cover traverses forward.
Having thus described my' invention, what I claim as new, and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is
The grooved cover d, arranged to slide 011 the dat upper surface of the breech-piece, in combination with the projection I), formed in one piece with the recoil-block of the breech or tiring pin, as set forth.
