Definitions

  • This invention relates Yto a fire-arm of novel construction.
  • Fire-arms are already known in the form of a .box-like casing, which can be tted to a belt or the like.
  • the 5 cartridge container has already been constructed in the form of a ring mounted upon the casing of the weapon, this ring being provided with a number of cartridge chambers.
  • the operating of this weapon is lo effected by the aid -of ⁇ a rather long exible connection, such for example as .the device marketed under the name of Bowden cable, which is seized or pulled up by hand or else by the Vaid of a pressure release located at the end of va rather 15 long iiexible tube.
  • a substantial improvement in such weapons secured to a belt is obtainedby providing on the casing of the Weapon a cock or trigger, which may be constructed 2c in the manner of trigger cocks that are usual in guns, revolvers or the like.
  • the trigger may .advantageously be arranged in the end of the casing, so that it moves in a plane horizontally parallel to the front surface of the casing, while :es by means of suitable connections the movement :of the ⁇ striker proceeds transversely to this direction, and the ball accordingly also leaves the Weapon transversely to the front surface of the casing.
  • a further improvement in the weapon according to the invention is obtained by providing it with an absolutely rrn and undisplaceable seat in the belt, and by shaping it like a coupling lock, so that it forms at the same time the closure 35 of the girdle or belt.
  • the rear wall of the casing may be provided Vwith the necessary hooks and eyes for securing it to a belt, such as those worn on military service.
  • the weapon may be secured, by the aid of suitable fastening means, such as barriers or the like, preferably in a readily releasable manner, but rmly Vand undisplaceably, upon a shoulder belt lock.
  • Figure .2 is a side View of the Weapon
  • FIG. 3 shows the interior of the weapon casing after removal of the back wall partly in section
  • Figure 4 is a section on the line 4-4 in Fig. l3,
  • Figure 5 is a section on the line 5 5 in Fig. 3,
  • Figure 6 is a section on the line 6-6 in Fig. 3,
  • Figure '7 is a sectionon the line 1-1 in Fig. 3, lo
  • Figure 8 is a frontview of the weapon with the cartridge chamber removed
  • Figure 9 is a back view of the weapon casing.
  • the reference numeral I denotes the front wall of the casing, which is of lo flat construction
  • 2 and 3 denote the side walls thereof.
  • 4 is the upper transverse wall, and 5 the lower transverse wall.
  • the weapon casing therefore forms a flat box, open towards the rear. In a rearward direction, that is to say, towards the surface of the body belt, this box is closed by a wall, which is secured to the casing for instance by the aid of lugs V'1, 8, and so forth, engaging upon the casing I.
  • the rear wall is according to the invention preferably provided with a clip 9, through which the belt is passed, With a tongue or prong I0 for engaging in the holes in the body belt, and with eyes II and I2 for engaging the free end of ythe belt.
  • This .construction of the weapon, resembling that of ya coupling lock may be such that the same admits of being provided in place of an ordinary coupling lock on the leather belt or girdle.
  • vThe ignition of the cartridges is eifected by driving forward a striker pin I9, which in its turn is set in operation by the movement of the trigger 20.
  • vThe movement of the trigger is here transmitted tothe striker pin I9 by the aid of a slidable bar 22.
  • the rotation of the magazine I3 for the purpose of conveying a fresh cartridge in front of the striker pin is likewise elfected by the aid of a loading transporter 2l, also actuated by the movement of the trigger.
  • the trigger 29, which is rockable about its pivot 24 in a cavity 23 in the casing wall 2, is provided with three lever-like cams 25, 26 and 2i.
  • the locking bar 22 is set free, for the action of the trigger. Now if the trigger 29 is moved in the direction of the arrow A in Figure 3, the cam drives the locking bar 22 forwards in the direction of the arrow, until the cam V25 reaches the position 25' shown in dotted lines.
  • the striker pin lever 32 which is rockable about a pivot 33, is pressed by the action of a compression spring 36 into the recess of the locking bar 22 in front of a wedge surface 3
  • 3 which, in the closed position, is arrested by a bolt 45 controlled by a spring 43 and provided with arrounded head 44, is transportedrby the trigger cam 26 when the trigger 204is pulled; for the cam 26 bears upon a rotatable arm 46, in which is supportedtheY transport locking bar 27
  • acts upon one toothV 4l in a group of teeth projecting rearwards out of the cartridge chamber
  • which isA so supported in the arm 45 as to be movable by a spring 50, then slips past the nextupper tooth of vthe cartridge chamber I3, and takes up a position in the gap between this tooth and the next one. Thus all the parts of the weapon have returned into their original positions. Upon the head 29 of the safety device being released, the hook 28 of the safety device falls down, so that the weapon is again in the safety position.
  • denotes a spring pin, which enters an aperture 52 in the parts.
  • VThe invention may be modified in construction and design in a variety of ways without departing from the basic idea.
  • the exceedingly fiat shape of the weapon casing which in other respects may be of any desired design, for instance round or .heXagonaL and which enables the weapon to be constructed and employed as a belt lock, is in any case essential, and is rendered Ypossible by the transverse arrangement of the transmission means between the trigger and the striker bolt and of the charge transporter.
  • this weapon may also be equippedY for firing blank cartridges, percussion caps or the like.
  • the belt or the rear wall of the casing may be widened orsupported.
  • the weapon may also be provided with automatic release and actuation for a continuoussuccession of shots. Furthermore the weapon can also be employed for shooting paint or other liquid substances.V
  • a nre-arm in the form of a box-like casing having a removable rear wall and having an aperture'in one side walla rotatable ring-shaped cartridge chamber arranged in the front of the casing and out of which the shot passes transversely to the.
  • means for discharging the rire-arm including a lever trigger pivotally arranged in the aperture in the side wall of the casing in such away that its Vrotary movement is effected in the central plane of the casing, a transversely movable striker-pin lever, a longitudinally slidable locking bar having a bevelled surface for actuating the striker-pin lever, the movement of the trigger being transmitted to the striker pin lever by means of the locking bar, the rear face of the cartridge chamber having a circular series of teeth, a tooth engaging member, the trigger lever being provided with a cam-like projection pressing in its turning upon the tooth engaging member for rotating the cartridge chamber, and a spring locking bolt for arresting the movement of the cartridge chamber'in the shooting position.
  • lever trigger pivotally in the aperture in the side wall of the casing in such a Way that its rotary movement is eiected in the central plane of the casing, a transversely movable striker-pin lever, a longitudinally slidable locking bar having a bevelled surface for actuating the strikerpin lever, the movement of the trigger being transmitted to the striker pin lever by means of the locking bar, the free head of the trigger lever being provided with three cam-like projections, the first of them actuating the pivotally movable cap of the locking bar, the second of them actuating the tooth engaging member for rotating the cartridge chamber, the third of them being pressed by a spring.
