WILLIAM H. BLQN, 9i"
STEVIARTSVILLE, OHIO.
SHOOTING IRON.
Application file d September To all whom 2'2? may concern:
Be it known that I, WILLIAM H. Been, a citizenof the United States residing at Stewartsville. in the county of Belmont and State of Ohio, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in vRhooting Irons, of which the following is a specification.
This invention relates to shooting irons for use in the blasting of vanes in coal mines, etc, and has for its primary object to substantially improve and simplify over similar devices that are now used for this purpose.
An additional object of my invention is the provision of such a shooting iron where in wet holes may be shot and wherein the same may housed in any position. this iron doing away with the well known form of needle and tamper that is now employed for substantially reducing the amount of labor and time required in shooting the holes in the coal vanes etc. in different forms of mines.
A still further object of my invention is to provide such a shooting iron that may be manufactured and marketed at extremely small cost and one that may be effectively applied by unskilled persons.
With the above and other objects in view as the nature of the invention is better understood. the same comprises the novel form, combination and arrangement of parts set forth in the following specification, shown in the accompanying drawing and claimed.
In the drawing wherein like reference characters indicate corresponding parts throughout the different views,
Figure 1 is side elevational view. partly in cross section of my improved shooting iron in operation,
Figure 2 is a side elevational view of the barrel member per se,
Figure 3 is a similar view of a barrel. cleaning tool that is to be employed in conjunction with the present shooting iron, and
Figure 4 is a perspective of a wedge mem ber employed for positively retaining the shooting iron in the vane hole.
Now having particular reference to the drawing my novel shooting iron embodies the provision of a barrel 5 of desirable length and diameter that is adapted for forcing the usual. blasting cartridge 6 within the vane hole 7 and through which is to 15. 1923. Serial No. 662,832.
be extended the usual fuse 8 of said carfridge.
The rear end of this barrel 5 is serrated upon one side thereof for cooperating with a relatively elongated tapered and curved wedge 9 that is adapted to be driven into the hole 7 of the coal vane between the unsorrated side of said barrel T and the adjacent wall of the hole for effectively preventing the discharge of said barrel from the hole when the cartridge 6 is exploded.
In Figure 3 I have shown a tool member that is adapted to be employed in conjunction wi h this shooting iron for effectively cleaning the barrel 5, this tool member comprising a relatively elongated rod 10 that is cranked at one end as at 11 and flattened and twisted at its opposite end at 12 for providing an auger it being obvious that this tool is to be inserted within said barrel 5 and rotated through the medium of the cranked end 11.
In view of the above description when considered in conjunction with the accompanying drawing, it will at once be apparent that I have provided a highly novel, simplitied and durable form of shooting iron and one that will answer all of the purposes of the now universally employed needle and tamper.
Minor changes may be made within the invention without departing from the spirit and scope of the appended claim.
Having thus described my invention, what I claim as new and desire to secure by Letters Patent is:-*
A. shooting iron comprising a relatively long barrel of cylindrical exterior configuration, the barrel being provided. at one end only with a series of transversely disposedserrations which extends for a relatively short length of the barrel the serrations extending transversely partially around the surface of the barrel thereby leaving a smooth surface at the opposite side of the barrel from the series of serrations and a wedge shaped member having at one side a longitudinally disposed groove which is concaved transversely and which is smooth and adapted to slide upon the smooth exterior surface of the barrel opposite the series of serrations.
In testimony whereof I affix my signature.
WILLIAM H. BLON.
