Definitions

  • This invention relates to ⁇ guns with railway gun carriages and has reference' to the special arrangement of the rear bogie of the railway carriage.
  • Figure l is a side elevation of the gun in the transport position
  • Fig. 2 is a side elevation or' the gun in the firing position and Fig. 3 is a transverse section on a larger scale through the bogie pinbearing of the rear bogie.
  • rEhe railway gun carriage ⁇ has a frame B, which is supported at 01 and Z1 on two D.
  • the gun barrel E is guided in the cradle i?, which is pivotally mounted in the frame B by means of horizontal trunnions f1.
  • an elevating gear not shown in the drawing.
  • the rear bogie D which is constructed in the form of a knuckle pin J (see Fig. 3) bears in a pan di.
  • This knuckle pin is fixed to the frame B by means of ribs g1 of a slideway plate G connected to the frame.
  • the bogie D is secured relatively to the frame B by means of a bolt H (see Fig. 3) which can Vbe inserted in bolt holes in the parts B, Gr and .l J1. in the frame B and the slideway G are formed bolt holes which correspond to the positions I and Il of the bogie D (see Figs. l and 2)
  • the rear bogie D occupies the position I (see Fig.
  • the gun is to be transferred to the ring position, the bogie D is pushed to the rear into position II, (see Fig. 2) and secured in this position by the bolt Bl.
  • vVith the rear bogie in this position the distance between the bogie D and the trunnions fl is so great that the gun barrel E when iii-ed at an elevation and recoiling does not st1 e against the bogie (see the position of the barrel E shown in dot and dash lines in Fior. 2).
  • a railway gun and carriage therefor which comprises a frame, a gun supporte@ on the frame, two bogies, means pivotally supporting said frame at each end thereof upon one of the bogies and means whereby this pivotal support at one end of the traine may be varied.
  • A. railway gun and carriage therefor which comprises two 1oogies., a frame supporting the gun, pivotal connections between each end of the frame and the bogiA i and means whereby one of these pivotal connections can be adjusted longitudinally oif the frame.
  • a railway gun and carriage therefor which comprises bog-ies, a frame supporting the gun, means pivotally supporting' each end of the frame upon the bogies, one of said pivotal connections comprising a knuckle pin, a bearing therefor, said knuckle pin being slidably mounted with respect to said frame and means for securing said knuckle pin in its adjusted positions, substantially as described ⁇
