Description
T. JACHIMIEC GUN sTO Filed July 1946- Qgt. 1 1949' INVENTOR. TeAdg :yukwm Patented Oct. 11, 1949 GUN STOGK" Teddy Jachiml'ec; .Ghica-go, 111-: Application July 17, 1946;" SerialNo: 6843278 1 Claim. 1
This invention pertains to a new andximproved type ofa gun StOGkL, It refers more particularly to a gun stock having a recess therein to provide safe keeping for articles, matches, etc.
One of the objects of my invention is to provideagun stock that has one or more chambers to store therein vital and necessary articles-such as matchese etc. .withouttim-pairingtthe usefulness and utility of the gun.
A further object of my invention is to provide amea-nsuof: enclosing. said chamber within the stock so: thatia water. tight, vapor: proof: chamber is obtained: wherebyv vital articles are not deteriorated':
Anotheryobject of my,invention:.,is to ,providewa means for storing. vital.v goods in a chamber formed within a gun stock and providing a suitable h'eelj plate hinge that-is ..unobtrussive;v but neverthelessntrong, and; ful-l'yvcapalale of protecting the shoulder of the rifieman and also protecting the wooded stock against abuse.
A still further object of my invention is to provide within the gun stock a suitable recess to receive a compass, which is useful to woodmen and others.
A still further and final object of my invention is to provide an instrument that will not only protect vital materials against spoilage by humidity but also will act as a guide.
With these and other objects, variations, modifications and adaptations which can be readily improvised by one skilled in this art, it is my intention not to be limited by the illustrations of the preferred examples of my invention as described fully hereinbelow, but to be limited solely by the basic concepts underlying the fundamental principles as defined in the hereunto appended claims.
It therefore will be readily seen that a rifleman, huntsman, sportsman or any one who may have need and use for a rifle will readily appreciate the usefulness, utility and ready availability of vital materials and a compass guide for self protection and guidance in the battlefield, woods, etc.
Since nothing whatsoever pertaining to the operation of the firing mechanism is embodied or involved in any of the basic concepts underlying the fundamentals of my invention, it will be sufiicient and believed desirable to limit this specification to the stock or butt portion of a gun which will be hereafter described clearly and in detail and which also is more fully illustrated in the attached drawings forming a part hereof. In the drawings and in the specification like ref- 2.: erencee numerals. are employed to:- more. clearly identifyrthe: components-of; this invention...

Figure? fiztshows an end viewrof: the heel plate and meanspfor attachinggtthevsameto: the gun stock;
Eigure: 4 shows a, .vertical section thru the end of improved g11lliSli0Ck showingthe. chamber therein to receive and protect vitalvgoodstherein.
Figure 5 is an enlarged sectional andfragmentary detail-showing thei special type of .010- suretused iinxattaching the heel plate firmly, and securely to the gun stock.
Figure 6 is another view somewhat similar to Figure 5 but showing the closure in an outstanding position.
Figure 7 shows an end view of the gun stock, somewhat similar to Figure 3, but with the heel plate in an open position and revealing the chamber within the stock.
In the drawings, the numeral I0 represents the gun stock proper. At one end thereof is attached thereto the firing mechanism M which forms no part of this invention. On the other end or the butt is a plate l2 commonly called and known as a heel plate. The heel plate 12 may have several corrugations [6 or other surface configurations therein to aid in preventing its accidental slippage from the shoulder of the user While the gun is being fired. Holes I8 and 20 are provided in the heel plate l2. Screws 22 and 24 are inserted respectively thru said holes and fitted respectively into the internal threads 26 and 28 within the stock In. Bushings 30 and 32 are provided and press fitted into the stock I0. Though not vital it is preferred that the internal threads 26 and 28 be formed within the said bushing so that a tight fitting closure may be had. If desired, a gasket fitted about the inside edging of the heel plate may also be utilized to aid materially in reaching a water tight construction and chamber. The gasket is not shown in the illustration since there are other conventional means which attain the same object.
The lower screw 22 is a machine type screw Whose head fits snugly in the counter sunk hole in the heel plate I2. The heel plate 12 ordinarily rotates about the shank of screw 22 as an axis whenever it is desirable to open the heel plate l2 for entry in the chamber 40.
The upper screw 24 consists of a threaded portion which fits in to the internal threads of the bushing 32. The head 42 of the screw 24 has two diametrically opposed lugs or ears 44 and 46 which serve as a shaft for a movable U shaped handle 48 which swivels about the lugs 44 and 46. Handle 48 is readily grasped by the fingers of a hand. This arrangement is sometimes known as a bezel head clamp. The entire assembly fits I a bezel type headed screw having a U-shaped haninto a cavity 50 which is recessed in the heel 7 plate l2 only. One end of said recess preferably the lower, is sufiiciently enlarged to form an extension 52 within which a finger of the gun user can be readily inserted to bring up the U shaped handle 48 whenever it is desired to retract the screw 24 and open the chamber 40.
I prefer that this assembly have a spring like arrangement or a snap (not shown) which will hold the handle either in an upright position as shown in Figure 6 or flatwise. When not in use, the snap spring will keep the handle 48 in a flat position within the recess 59 of the heel plate l2. Thus the handle of the screw 24 as well as the head of screw 22 are in the same plane as the surface of the heel plate and therefore do not inconvenience the user or impair the usefulness and utility of the gun while it is being fired.
It is obvious that there are many variations of the illustrations given above, and it therefore is my intention to claim all those variations and adaptations of the fundamental concepts of my invention that may come within the spirit and scope of my invention as defined in the hereunto appended claim.
I claim:
In combination with a gun stock having a storage chamber therein and said chamber having a dle pivoted thereto, said screw transversing through said heel plate and into the threaded bushing, the bezel head of said screw being adapted to lie substantially Within the heel plate cavity, the lower portion of the cavity being recessed to receive said U-shaped handle and so construoted that the finger of a user of the gun may be inserted to grasp the U-shaped handle of the screw.
