CHARLES A. SHAEFFER, OF KANSAS CITY, MISSOURI, ASSIGNOR v0F ONE-THIRD TO HARRY E. SHERMAN AND ONE-THIRD T0 LOUIE A. SHERMAN, BOTH OF KANSAS CITY, MISSOURI.
Application led May 2, 1921.
To @Zlio/10m t may concern.'
Be it known that I, CHARLES A. SHAEF- rim, a citizen of the UnitedStates, residing at Kansas City, in the county of Jackson and State of Missouri, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Shotgun Shells; and .l flo declare the following to be a full., clear, and exact de.- scription of the invention, such ras will en able others skilled in the art to'which it appertains to make and'use the same, ref erence being had to the accompanying drawings, and to the figures of reference marked thereon, which form a part of this specification.
This invention relates to fixed ammunition and particularly to ammunition to be used in shot guns. The invention contemplates an inexpensive construction of shell in which the paper tubular portion can be efficiently secured to the metallic cap so that liability of distortion of the shell when in use may be eliminated, it being one of the prime objects of my invention to inexpensively and efficiently secure the paper body portion of the shell to the cap. It is also the purpose of my invention to generally improve the construction of fixed ammunition for shot guns, and to this end the invention consists in certain novel parts and combinations of parts, all of whichwill be specifically referred to hereinafter, reference being had to the accompanying `drawings, in which Fig. 1 is a perspective view of a completed shell constructed in accordance with my invention, parts being broken away to show the interior construction thereof.
Fig. 2 is a perspective view of the paper tube and the base wad, part of the tube being broken away to show the base Wad, the end of the tube being shown preparatory to being crimped over the wad.
Fig. 3 is a similar view of the base and of the tube crimped over the wad.
Fig. 4 is a like view with the metallic base disk for securing the base wad and tube together, and
Fig. 5 is a similar view of the tube, base wad and the base cap and the primer cap assembled.
In carrying out my invention, I prefer to provide a tube 1, preferably of paper and of appropriate length, into one end of SHOTGUN SHELL.
Serial No. 466,021.
which may be inserted a base wad 2,pref erably of soft and flexible material. The base wad 2 `'has an opening 3.' After the base 'wad and tube 1 are assembled as shown in Fig. 2, the projecting end 4 of the tube l is crimped over against one end of the base wad. A base cap 5 is then sleeved over the tube 1. vThe. cap' consists of a disk base 6 andl an outer'flange 7. Then the cap `1s subjected to the action of a die which' will strike af plurality of tubular engaging projectionsV 8 and force them through the inturned end 4, as shown 1n Fig. 4, the die being so constructed that at the same time a circular flange 9 will be struck therefrom to lie against the inner wall of the opening 3, so that the base wad 2 and the tube 1 will be crimped between the flanges 7 and 9, and the inturned end 4 of the tube l' will be anchored by the engaging projections 8 on the base cap 5, thus securing the parts together. A primer cap 10 is next applied. The primer cap consists of a disk 11 carrying primer 12 which is insertible into the opening 3 of the base wad 2, the' primer being held by the inturned iiange 13 on the disk 11. The disk 11 is also provided WithV an exterior or peripheral flange 14 which is adapted to lie against the outer face of the flange 7 on the base cap 5. When the parts are assembled, as shown in Fig. 5, a rim 15 may be crimped around the primer cap, and the crimping action also forms a rim 16 about the periphery of the base cap so that the two caps will be secured together, and the tube 1 will be slightly constricted so as to bind against the base wad 2, and since the base wad 2 is preferably of soft material, part of it will be forced into the space formed between theinner edge 18 of the inturned end 4 and the flange 9 of the base cap, as clearly seen in Fig. 1. Such a construction may be inexpensively provided, and it will be apparent from Figs. 1, 4, and 5 that the projections or tines 8 will be embodied in the inturned end of the tube 1 so that the tube can not become accidentally disassociated with its base wad. Therefore, a hollow shell of considerable strength may be manufactured.
The shell may be loaded in the usual way by providing the powder charge 19 in the space immediately in front of the primer What I claim and desire to secure byr Letters-Patent is l. A shell comprisingv a tufbe, a base Wad`VA` Within the tube, a flange on the tube against tlie'base Wad, abasecap having anouter flange engaging over the tube, projections'-r on the base cap engaging the flange `on the tube, an ,inner flange on the base cap projecting into an opening in the base vWad, and a primer cap having a flange overlapping the outer flange lon the base cap, and provided with a primer extending opening in the base Wad..
