TOY GUN Filed March'll, 1950 3mm@ Fader Keseleff w M @MM N @.m/ Nm Mm..
nanna irEsn'Lnrr, or SEATTLE, WASHINGTON 'roY GUNV Application `tiled March 171, 1930.y Serial No. 434,899. l
11gof the breech 10 and held securely by rset My invention relatesto an improvement in toyguns, and particularly tothe type where n ay projectile is shot forward outside the casing or barrel f` the gun. t VThe object of my invention is to provide a toy gun'having the general shape of a gun, andv having a projector adapted toy carry the projectile outside of the barrel and to propel it'forward in the line of the sight.
Another object isto providea casingrrepresenting the outline of a barrel of a gun and having novel securingfmeans relative to the gunproper'. I` t n v A further object is the construction of a device of this general'character, which shall be simple and strong andv will standthe rough usage generally required by children. f l y invention comprises the novel" parts andl` the novel combination and arrangement y 2,9 thereof, as shown in the accompanying'draw-y ings, described in the specification. and particularlyy defined by the 'claims' terminating the same. f
In theaccomptanying" drawings I have shown my invention y1n therform now preferred by me; 'j
Figure l'is aside elevation of myv gun showing the projector in cocked position and with a ball in place. ,4 n t Figure 2 is a central longitudinal section of mygun. f if; 5 Figure 3 is'a section on theline 3--3 of .Figure 2, showing a portion of the ball in dotted'lines. t t Figure y4 is a plan view lof the tip of the'gun showing. the slide and projector ina forward Aposition and .showing parts of the tip in seotion and with the casing removed. l v Figure 5'is a yfragmentary*planview illusg my method of attaching the casing to thebreech. v f j My gun in general conforms to theshape of Iany standard rifle, and comprises a stock 1, which may be made ofwood, andabreech 10, 45 which Jis Ausually m'adeof metal. The stock nd breech may be secured together in yany ,suitable manner. y l
In order to form a foundation for the bar- 'relof the gun, I may provide twoparallel 50 spaced. bars Q'Hwhich may be seated in sockets screws-12. `The, forward end of these bars'2 are tied together by a tip lmember, 3 having sockets adaptedto receive the forward end of the barsZHThe bars maybe held secure in the' member/3 by set screws31.
l'lhe-,barsQ also have another use inthat they actas guide bars' for the slide 4. The slide consistsV in a front crossbar 40l andra rear cross bar 41 spaced apart and they may be tiedtogether by a rod 42.` Such a construction produces a slide which will slide easily upon the guide vbars andjeliminate binding anda tendency to wobble. In order to.im.
party a forward movement to the slide 4,]a
resilient rubber band 5 maybe attached to VaV removable bolt 32 secured in and interposed between two downwardly projecting lugs 33 at the tip-of the gun. YAtfthe rear the band 5 may be attached to a similar ybolt 43 secured in, and interposed between two downward-` ly extending lugs 44 depending from the rear Y cross bar 41.l ,Y j
An upstanding longitudinal vane 45, rigidly secured tothe cross bars40and 41, is provided with a' forwardly projecting finger 46, upon which vthe projectile may be' posiv tioned, las willbe explained hereinafter. In order to pull the carriage back, a suitable fin# ger piece'47 is'secured on the rear portion of the'vane 45. Y 1- Y It is, of course, desirable to lhold the slide when it is brought back to the farthest rear position. A tri ggerl guard 5 is secured on the under sideof the breech 10 by screws 51, a trigger isv pivotally kmounted in thelguard 5. i A spring-held plunger 52normal1yY tends to raisejthe plungerrupward against-a plate113 wwhich is heldin place by a screw 14. The l `'plate is furtherr held yby .aftongue15 which fills the rear portionv of .aflongitudinal groove 16y in the. breech block. A rearwardly projectingr apertured lipf 41', integral with or 1 forming apart ofthe rear cross bar 41 ofthe damage, and also guarding the fingers of the operator against being hurt, a casing 7 is provided. The upper surface has a longitudinal slot 73, of sufficient length to allow free movement of the upstanding vane 45. The lower rear edge of the casing at 71 is received in a slot 17 in the breech. The upper rear por tion of the casing may be formed as a split tongue 72 and inserted under a staple 18 secured in the plate 13. rIhe staple prevents side-movement of the casing. To hold'the casing securely in place, a screw 36 may be received in the tip member 3.
The ammunition for my gun consists of a soft rubber ball 8, which. is provided with a hole part way through its aXis, in which is positioned a bushing 80. rIhe rubber ball 8 is placed upon the finger 46 with the bushing 8O loosely fitting about the finger. The up standing vane 45 is so shaped as to receive the ball against the edge 48 and frictionally hold it, due to the rubber ball being compressed, until thev shock of the slide against the bumper Gis greater than the frictional holding ofthe ball` when it is released. rlhe ball 8, vane 45 and finger piece 48 are all positioned and adapted-to travel in a longitudinal plane outside of the casing @but this is all of the mechanism which is exposed.- and it is at the top ofthe casing or barrel 7, where it is notlikely to harm the child who plays with the gun. y
To rep-lace a broken or worn-out rubber band 5, it is only necessary to remove the screw 36, whereupon the barrel 7 may be removed, and the bolts 32 and 43 may then be reached and quickly removed and replaced.
