Description
CHARLES Gr. EALMER, F NEWARK, NEW JERSEY. I
TOY PISTOL.
To aZZ- whom t may concern:
Be it known that I, CHARLES G. PALMER, a citizen of the United States, residing in Newark, in the Acounty Vof Essex and State of New Jersey, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Toy Pistols, of which the following is a specification.
The'principal purpose of this invention is to provide a toy pistol simulating in appearance real pistols and capable of detonations. f
` A further object is to rovide means for automatically recocking t e trigger and for advancing the detonator bearing strip into operative position at each full movement of the trigger.
Another object is the .provision of means whereby all of the several parts operate smoothly, easily and positivelyupon actuation.
These and other like objects, such as economical construction, durability of parts and ease of manipulation, are attained by the novel design, construction, combination and arrangement of parts hereinafter described and shown in the accompanying drawings, forming a material part of this disclosure, and in which :e j
VFigure 1 is a side elevational view showing-the interior of the piston, the cover portion being raised and the mechanism ina normal position ready for operation.
Figure 2 is asimilar side view, the cover element being closed and broken away to disclose the interior, the parts being inv retracted position as just prior to` discharge.
Figure 3 is a transverse sectional view taken on line 3-3 of Fig.'2. Y
Stated briefly in general terms, the pistol consists of a pair of opposed side elements, hinged at their juncture at the'top and .en-
1 gaged by a spring clipl at the. bottom of the m1-llmhandle portion.
The lock mechanism is carried on a plate fixed in the body 'and comprises a spring ac- Specification of Letters Patent. Pgwqned Feb. 2L 3,922.
.Application lerl March 2, 1921.
Serial No. 449,098.
Referring now. more specificallyl` to the drawings in detail, the numerals and 12 .designate the respective sides of the pistol body, the same having curved marginal flanges 11 and 13 extending towards and yclenched tightly over forming secure fastening for the plate 18.
rlhe upper portion of this plate is formed into an elongated rectangular casing 20, disposed adjacent and parallel with the lupper flanges of the side elements and suited` to guide the hammer boltk 21 slidably contained therein, and provided with a striking head 22, the body of the bolt being otherwise hollow. Y
The inner side of the casing 20 does not make Contact with the plate 18 but presents an open longitudinal space through which extends a projection 24C 'formed with the bolt or plunger 21, the front edge vof the projection being turned slightly upward, for a reason further on apparent and inclined outwardly or away `from the head 22, forming a ledge 25.
Approximately 'centrally of the plate 18, near itslower edge, is seta fixed stud 27 having an enlarged head, holding in position a trigger 28, the same being made of a single blank folded to present a pair of spaced sides 30 and 30 blending into a smooth face adapted to receive the finger of an operator. Both sides cf the trigger are pierced by transverse slots 31, through which the body of the stud 27 passes and surrounding the stud, between the trigger sides, are the coils Yof compression spring 32, one of its ,extending arms 33 pressing against the inner side of the trigger, tending to move it outwardly,
Vwhile the other end 34 abuts against a lug 35 upturned from the extreme lower ledge of the plate 18, the lug making contact with the flange of the side element in such manner as to prevent displacement of the spring arm, and the movement of the trigger, which extends outward through the lower flanges of the side elements, is limited by stops 3G.
and 37 resnectivel Y front and rear.
The rearedge 39 of the plate is turned upward at a right angle and extended to pass outward i abovev the upper flanges ll--l3 through openings 38, `the upper end of the element 39 acting as a (sight in connection with Athe hinge elements. Y
The too oi the lug 49 -is curved and adapted .to :maize contaet with an offset portion 50 termed on the ltrigger arm 42, causing it to spring slightly outward and release the im- .peller 44 from `the ledge 25, whereupon ,the bolt snaps against the strip under the impetus of the spring 45, `and upon 4the trigger being released the .impeller Vv44 `glides over the elements 24 and 25 under theltension .of the spring32v to fits normalV position.
Another 5,2, formed with the ,trigger element is given a `right, angle twist near its outer end, constituting .a .pusher Y53 afdaptedfto feed the stri-p 'when the trigger is p ulled,the :trigger moving rearwardly due to its slotted eng/agement with .the stud 2.7 on which it also pivots, therebyraising the strip by sliding it along the surface 39 while :reti-acting the ihammer bolt. y
At lthe moment ofV discharge, .the bolt is propelled rearwardly, Acoming Vinto violent contact with the de'tonatorv carried on the strip over the Vface of the anvil 39 and .clamps the strip during thereturn to initial position of the trigger by it.
'llhus the strip isV extruded at each full and ,pusher carried movement oi the trigger, the ,extending length of used material being torn Yofi" over the edge of the sight portion of the element -V Y Y InQpullin'g Ythe vtrigger the pusher .first ,makes ,contact with the strip lat a point .be-
low the axis 427 .and is thus Vrotated upward .on .the axis, ,the strip being held by the pusher under the `pull transmitted Athrough Y pletin o' neomee the trigger and the spring through the bolt and its extension until released, whereupon the spring 32 returns the parts into povlsition for furtheroperation.
As all Contact points are smoothly curved there is no Catch or jerkiness in operation, but a smooth, `uniform and keasy actuation is obtained together with the several objects 4set li'orth.
While certain preferred embodiments of this device have been shown and described, it will be understood that changes in the form, arrangements, proportions, sizes and details thereof may be Vmade without departing from the scope of the invention as .deined in the appended claims.
. withsaid platelparallel toftll pistol top and an abutment at 1an angle thereto Aformed with saidplate, :a spring impelled hammer slidablein said guide way contactable with said abutment, a projection on said hammer, a spring returned, .manually actuated trigger havinga variable fulcrum on said plate, a resilient arm :earried by said trigger engageable with said projection, and means for yautomatically releasing said varm at the full operation of said trigger.
2. Atoy pistol comprising a hollow body, havingtwo hinged sections, a plate secured to one of said sections, a guide way formed with said plate ,parallel to `the Vpistol top, Va post fixed on Asaid plate, a .spring pressed trigger having a transverse slot engaged by said post, said trigger being movably pivoted thereon, .a vertical ,abutmentformed .with said plate Vextending labove said. body,

means Yfor releasing said hammer upon Vcomg the yrearward 4movement of said trigger.
3. A toy pistol comprising a hollow sectional body, apla-te secured-therein,a headed Vpost fixed' on said plate, a trigger limitedl-y bodily movable on said post lengthwise Vot said body and also gpivoted thereon, a resilient arm formed with said trigger, Said arm-having an offset portion andan angu- Alarly .turned end, Va spring impelled hammer plunger slidable in la portion of said plate, an .extension Aon said plungerengageable with .the end of said arm, .and a o'am projection on said` plate "contact-able with said oli'set portion 'of said arm whereby it is arni adapted to retract said plunger by contact with said cam ledge and a lug on said plate adapted to raise said trigger arm and release said plunger at the instant said trigger becomes fully rearwardly drawn, Said arm passing over said cam ledge upon its return.
