MACHINE-GUN FEED-BELT.
Specification of Letters Patent. Patented NOV. 27, 1917.
Application filed March 24, 1917. Serial No. 157,137.
of reference marked thereon, to be a full, clear, and exact description of the same, and
' which said drawings constitute part of this 7 application, and represent, in-
Figure l a broken plan view of one form which a machine-gun feed-belt constructed in accordance with my invention may assume.
Fig. 2 a view thereof in longitudinal section on the line 2-2 of Fig. 1.
Fig. 3 an enlarged view thereof in transsuperior belt characterized by shallow fender-receiving pockets arranged between the contracted inner or bullet ends of the cartridge-receiving pockets, whereby I am enabled to provide that class of machine-gun feed-belts in which the cartridges are placed close together side by side, with fenders which has not heretofore been done on account of the want of room.
With these ends in view, my invention consists in a machine-gun feed-belt having certain details of construction as will be hereinafter described and pointed out in the claims.
In carrying out my invention as herein shown, I form the belt-fabric 4 with shallow fender-receiving pockets 5 located between the contracted inner or bullet ends of the cartridge-receiving pockets 6 in regular alternation, the shallow fender-receiving pockets 5 being preferably produced in the weaving of the belt, and therefore concur- I rently with the cartridge-receiving pockets 6. The said pockets 5 receive the inner ends of cartridge-fenders which may be of any approved construction. As herein shown, the cartridge-fenders consist of two corresponding sheet-metal strips 8 having their outer ends secured together by eyelets 9. Their inner ends are inserted into the said pockets 5 and secured together and to the belt, by longer eyelets 10 which pass through the two thicknesses of the belt-fabric, and through perforations 11 formed in the inner ends of the strips. The fenders are by preference located between everythird cartridge receiving pocket 6, but this spacing or arrangement may be varied according to requirements. In length the fenders reach a little beyond the ends of the bullets 12 of the cartridges 13 and ward off blows upon the ends of the bullets, tending to drive the cartridges out of place in their pockets.
I do not limit myself to any one mode of producing the fender-receiving pockets, nor to one way of constructing the fenders themselves, nor to the manner shown and described of securing them in place, nor to any one method of spacing them apart, my invention being broadly characterized by a machine-gun feed-belt provided with shallow fender-receiving pockets arranged between the contracted inner or bullet ends of its cartridge-receiving pockets. In other words, by my invention I utilize the space between-the contracted inner or bullet ends of the cartridge-receiving pockets for the formation of shallow fender receiving pockets, whereby I am enabled to provide machine-gun cartridge feed belts of the type in which the cartridge-receiving pockets are located too close together for the interposition of fenders between them, with fenders.
I claim 1. A machine-gun feed-belt having cartridge-receiving pockets the inner or bullet ends of which are contracted, and having shallow fender-receiving pockets located between the said contracted or bullet-ends of the cartridge-receiving pockets.
2. The combination with a feed-belt hav between the said contracted ends of the carspecification in the presence of two subscribtr'idgeerece'iving' pockets offendershaving. ingfwitnesses. v I their innerends inserte oi into the said. shalr r FRANK HLFRISSELL. 10W fender-receiving pockets and securedin -Witness'es: 7 Y
