Toy-Pistols. No 149 740. PatentedApril14,174.
UNTTED STATES PATENT OFFICE.
GEORGE GEEB, OF PLAINVILLE, CONNECTICUT.
IMPROVEMENT IN TOY PlSTOLS.
Specification forming part of Letters Patent No. 149,740, dated April 14, 1874; application led March 18, 1874.
To all whom 'it may concern:
Beit known that I, GEORGE GEBR, of Plainville, in the county of Hartford and State of Connecticut, have invented a new Improvement in Toy Pistols, and I do hereby declare the following, when taken in connection with the accompanying drawings and the letters ot' reference marked thereon, to be a full, clear, and exact description of the same, and which said drawings constitute part of this specification, and represent, in-
Figure 1, a side view; Fig. 2, an interior view Figs. 3 and 4, the two parts which compose the frame and barrel detached; and in Fig. 5, a section of the part Fig. 4 on line a:
This invention relates to the construction of a toy to explode detonating pellets, designed to atibrd amusement for children by enabling them to produce an explosion quite equal to rire-crackers, without the danger attending the use of the latter; andthe invention consists in a frame and barrel constructed in two parts, the barrel terminating in a concave shape, so as to form a guide to conduct the pellet to the anvil, combined with a lever within the frame, the nose of which, with the anvil,forms a chamber to receive the pellet, and a second or camlever, by means of which the inner or first lever is forced onto the pellet with sufficient force to crush it, and thereby cause an eX plosion.
The principal part, as shown in Fig. 3, is cast in one piece, consisting of the handle A complete, and from the upper end of the handle the structure forms one-half of the frame and barrel; the second part, as seen in Fig. 4, the corresponding half; B, the barrel, termi nates at its inner end, a, in concave or conical form. In the rear of the barrel the parts C D form the two sides of the chamber which incloses the mechanism. On the part D the anvil l is formed, projecting, as seen in Fig. 5, so as to extend into the other part, across the joint between the two parts. On the part D a stud, e, is formed, onto which the compressing-lever E is hung, as seen in Fig. 2, and
in broken lines, Fig. 4, the nose m of this lever extending forward beneath the anvil d, and is constructed with an abutment, a, upon the upper side of this lever, which forms the rear of a chamber, fi, between the nose m of the lever and the anvil d. Below the leven-upon a pivot, o", the actuating lever F is hung, its upper end constructed so as to interlock with the lever E, so that -by throwing the lever E forward, as in Eig. 2, the nose of the lever will be drawn down, as seen in Fig. 2, from the anvil. In that condition the pellet, which consists of a detonating compound, is dropped into the barrel, the barrel held in nearly a vertical position, and, guided by the contracted passage a, enters theohamber t'. rlhen the lever E s drawn back, forcing the nose m of the leverE upon the pellet, so as to crush the pellet upon the anvil cl and cause it to explode.
To give the toy the more perfect appearance of a pistol, I form the frame with a stationary piece, L, representing a hammer. rEhe pivots may be formed on the parts, and made the means of connecting the parts together, or the parts may both be perforated, and independent rivets introduced.
I elaim as my invention- 1. The frame A, one side, C, and half the barrel B, in one piece, combined with the second part, forming 'the other half of the barrel B, and the opposite side D, when the inner end of the barrel is made concave or conical, as described, and with the anvil d.
2. In combination with a frame, A, and barrel B, provided with the anvil cl, the levers E F, coupled together substantially as described.
3. In combination with aframe, A, and barrel B, provided with the anvil d, the lever E, constructed with the-abutment n, which, with the nose m of the said lever and the anvil d., forms the chamber to receive the pellet, substantially as specified.
GEORGE GEEB.
